"Mr. Stanley, please open the door", gerard said, knocking on Mr. Stanley's old wooden door.

"Mr. Stanley, you peasent open the door!", gerard mumbled under his breath, pressing his lips together when my neighbour showed no reaction.

"I don't think he'll open the door now", Emily said, crossing her arms, "I mean you are a police officer and you're knocking on his door now for the third time today and it's starting to become dark."

"Just wait, Emily, I know my tricks", gerard said, "I have an idea."

Emily narrowed her eyes at the elder man, causing him to continuing talking.

"We'll call the police", gerard said, "I mean, now we know where Ryan is, we could get him now."

"Yeah... that's a good idea", Emily mumbled, "but you call them, they believe you more than us I guess."

Gerard nodded and pulled out his phone to call the police.
He came back again, a small smile on his face.

"They're coming now", he mumbled, causing me to smile slightly.

It's gonna be alright.

It's gonna be alright.

Now, it will be ok again.

"But what if... what if it's already too late when they arrive?", Emily asked.

"It isn't, I just know that, he has to be alive", I mumbled, sobbing.

"He's ok, Emily", gerard said, tapping her shoulder, "calm down, the police will get them and everything is going to be alright again."

The police came shortly after that, causing gerard to quickly explain everything.

"But we didn't find Anything here last time", a black haired man told gerard.

"But now we know he's in there", he said, "please, Frank, believe me!"

"Ok, but if this is again a wrong alert", Frank warned gerard.

"It won't", he said.

I walked up to Gerard when we all entered the house which the police opened or broke down, what would fit better.

"Now tell me, where is he?", gerard quietly asked me.

"There, in this room", I mumbled, "but there is a small door under the carpet, ryan is down there."

Gerard nodded ant told the police officers what I just said. My hands were trembling and I nervously played with the hem of my shirt.

We finally got into the room and I started to breath heavily. Now I get to see Ryan again, he's safe now with us.

I pointed at the carpet and gerard put it away quickly, revealing a small door on the floor like I said.

Frank came over to us and opened the small door.

Ryan you're safe now, I thought.

But I think i stopped breathing when I saw that Ryan was no where to be seen...
