One Way Ticket To Hell

The 2008 Ford Fusion plowed down the street! Sissy dove in between cars....Carlotta ran and then dove between a few parked cars...

She rose up and let go about four shots at the car...Sissy ran into the street, squatted down and fired five shots at the car, shattering the back window...The car swerved ,but continued to move even faster....Nearly hitting a bystander, knocking over a trash can and then zooming down the street....Crowds of people entered the area, gawking at what was happening...

Just then, I pulled up in Sissy's car....

"Get in" I yelled....

Sissy and Carlotta leaped in the car and then it was on...a wild car chase through the heavily populated downtown streets of Philadelphia... It was amazing that neither car hit anybody....

Carlotta leaned out the window with her glock aimed, but unsteady....

"Can you get a good shot Chica?" screamed Sissy...

"No...Noooooooo...too risky..."she said...

Sissy let down the back window.....but the car was moving from side to side....

''Can't get a clear shot...Don't want to hit anybody."said Sissy..As we turned a corner ,still in hot pursuit of the car...

"You Call it Lieutenant!!" said Carlotta...

"Okay!!!...Let her go...We'll get her another time.. I don't want to risk an accident or anybody getting hurt." said Sissy resignedly..

I brought the car to a halt as The Ford Focus pulled off!!

"It's all good though...We at least know who we are looking for...That's Olivia Rockland...and that car belongs to Daniel Blunt, who works at Blue Skies....That's what I was coming to tell you Sissy...Jimmy and Duke have Blunt in custody....Apparently he was letting her use his car and leave out of the institution whenever she got a notion....." I said.

"Oh My God...So who knows how long she's been stalking her victims?? Or how long she's been...setting this up?" said Sissy...

"There's more." I said.

"What now?" said Sissy...

"Tammy Thompson is missing... Detective Pile and some uniforms got to her place and she was gone, they found the coffee cup with the sedative in it and two more wedding bands..." I said.

"Oh my God...Oh my God ...Oh noooooooo." said Sissy who leaned against the car and hung her head down..

Carlotta put her arms around her...

"It's okay boss lady...It's okayyy......." she said as she comforted her..

II-

Back at C.I.D.  Detective Jimmy Barlow stood outside as Detective Edwin "Duke" Baylor grilled Daniel Blunt....

"Hey Lieutenant, Carlotta, ADA...Duke is interogating this perp...He's been lettin her out for close to a year...Lettin her use his car too." he said.

"Man,I'm tellin you...I didn't know she was killin people... I swear..." said Blunt...

"But you violated the rules by letting her out..a dangerous patient...!!" yelled Duke.

''Dangerous?? She has a split personality...It aint like she killed nobody..." he said.

Actually she had , but he nor Duke had any way of knowing that....

"Look man...She would uh occassionally break me off a little somethin, somethin...You've seen her...She's fine as a mug...So in exchange, I'd let her hold my car, get a little fresh air...I had no idea she was killin people...I swear." said Blunt.

"Mannn, you work in a mental institution....A place for Crazy people...They are there for a reason...What did you think might happen? , You lettin her out!!! She could have gotten hurt herself." he said.

Sissy turned to Carlotta and me...

"Duke isn't the most politically correct guy , but he does ocassionally make  good sense." she said.

I couldn't help but smile...Carlotta smiled too!

Just then Detective Tyriq Pile walked in...He had six uniformed policemen with him...He looked exhausted...

''Hey everybody...I got news....We found Tammy Thompson's body......In Wister Woods Park...She'd been strangled and hung up in a tree..." he said.

Sissy hung her head...Carlotta put her arm around her and patted her on the back..

"There's more....That car...That car that you reported you were in pursuit of this morning Lou...We found it!! " he said.

"You found it where?" she asked.

"Parked at Penns Landing...with the keys in it....I did a check...it belongs to Daniel Blunt...Employed at Blue Skies Mental Asylum.." said Detective Pile..

"Good work Detective Pile" joked Carlotta...

"Coming from you, I'm highly honored Top Top." he said...Carlotta busted out laughing...So did Tyriq Pile.

"Tyriq!! Good work...Take the rest of the day off, Get some sleep, Go be with your family." said Sissy.

''You sure?" he asked.

"Yes...You've been working hard." she said.

"Thanks Lou." he said.

I pointed to the interrogation room...

"That's him in there with Duke." I said.   "He works there...He was having sex with her in exchange for the use of his car and a few hours of freedom...It was the perfect ruse." I said.

Tyriq shook his head and smiled...So Did Jimmy Barlow....Carlotta looked at them both....

"Sex must be different for you guys...It must be far more powerful and intoxicating for you....You all do the stupidest things for it." she said.

"Okayyy." laughed Sissy who high fived her.

I just smiled.

"Sissy can I speak with you in private?" I asked.

"What's Up?" she said.

"Something just occurred to me." I said.

"Okay, come on.." she said.

Sissy walked into her office....I followed...

"You know your name was on a list...a list that Detective Pile found at Tammy Thompson's house." I said.

"I'm not surprised . I imagine she was trying to do a double...Get both of us in one day.." said Sissy.

"Well, she's got no car...She can't get back to Blue Skies...Where do you think she'll go?" I asked.

"I don't know." said Sissy.

"To get Portia Collins!!.....and where would she be? With Rollie Rollerson in his downtown condo...She could get there on foot." I said.

"But Portia's out of town!" said Sissy.

"You know that, I know that ,but she doesn't?" I said.

"I don't want to go out to Rollie's place." she said.

"Well...Carlotta and somebody else could go....I'm sure you got a lot of more important things to do!"I said and winked.

"Yeah you're right Keith...Get Chica...Grab a few uniforms...Let's go." she said.

III-

At Rollie Rollerson's Midtown Condo...There was the sound of running water....Rollie and a very voluptuous woman were bathing in his rather large jacuzzi...Soft jazz music was playing, the lights were dimmed...and there was much laughing....We could see some of what was going on through his large windows on the side...I was kind of embarrassed for him...I imagined that when he was here, no one else was on this floor.

"Ohhh Rollie....this is sooo nice..." she said.

"Ah knew you'd dig it baby.." he said.

"But what about your fiance?" she asked.

"What about her? She's in L.A. Me and you and the big dipper are right here..heh heh heh.."he said.

''The Big dipper?? Ohhhhhhh...ouuuuuuuuuuu...you are so nasty Rollie...Ohhhhhhh." she cooed..

Sissy shook her head in disgust-

"Maybe we should just let him get what's coming to him." she said.

Carlotta smiled and turned her head...She didn't want Sissy to see her about to laugh...I just smiled...

"Hang on Sissy...This is almost over." I said rubbing her shoulders.

Rollie's female companion's  body was glistening as she stepped out of the tub,she was stacked..a brickhouse as Lionel Richie would say. Rollie wrapped her wet but hot body in a towel, and they slow grinded to the beautifully appointed king-size bed overlooking the city, A spacious view that would take your breath away.It was better than my loft.

 Rollie was talking and whispering and laughing as she stepped out of her clothes...his erection just raging..She looked at it and her mouth just opened...''Oh My God Mr. Rollerson...Oh My goodness...you are huge!!...Ohhhhh myyy" she gasps.

"Baby I love the way you look naked..every last curve... I love the way you smell." he said..just looking at her..

I kind of felt sorry for the guy because of what happened next!!!

"Funny, you used to say the same thing to me!" came a voice.

"Rollie...Who said that?" said his female companion...

"I don't know.." he said puzzled..."Somebody else is in here." he said.

"Rollie,I'm not into threesomes..." she said. Rollie looked at her like she was crazy.

"And neither am I" came the voice and then a gunshot that just missed  both of their heads...Then a second gunshot!!!!

"OLIVIA!!!" shouted Rollie in horror..

"Who the hell is Olivia??" said his female companion...

"My ex-wife." he said.

"You told me she was locked up." said his female companion.

"Well obviously, she must have gotten out." said an exasperated Rollie.

"I'm not Olivia...I'm Rachel!" came the voice...

"Ohhhh hell, she's in one of her personalities..." sighed Rollie.

"Olivia, Rachel,Portia...You got so many women you can't keep track...I'm outta here." she said.

Another gunshot rang out!!

"Stay put....you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time dearie.." came the voice..

At this point...I kicked in the door...Carlotta came in with her glock aimed ...So did Sissy....and three uniformed officers.

Rachel spun around.....

"Ohhhhhh so at last we meet Sissy.....I missed you the other day, but now that I got you all here,I can finish the deal.." said Rachel...

"Who is Sissy? Lord Jesus Rollie...I knew I shoulda never come here." said the girl... Rollie covered himself with his bed sheets and stood in horror as Rachel came out with her .45 aimed at him and his girlfriend...

"Rachel!!! Rachel...put the gun down...it's all over." said Sissy..

"Nothing is over SISSSSSYYYY!!!  You too have to pay for screwing my husband too." she said.

"What about you?? You were screwing Olivia's Husband?" said Sissy.

This touched a nerve! It was then that an eerie transformation took place...

"Oh Dear God...What am I doing here?? Ohhh lord.." came the voice of Olivia...

"Olivia....Olivia, put down the gun, please...Let's go back to Blue Skies.." said Sissy..

"I'm not going back there...I'll Kill you all first." said Rachel.

''Oh God Rachel please...Stop this...You've done too much..."said Olivia...

"DON't Tell me what to do...Stop dominating me Olivia...Go awayyyy!"said Rachel...

"You are evil Rachel and I'm going to stop you the only way I can...I'm sending you a one way ticket to helll..." said Olivia, who put the gun in her mouth and to  our astonishment, pulled the trigger, blowing her brains out!!! Her troubled existence as two warring personalities had come to an end...!!!!

I covered Carlotta's eyes...Sissy turned her head as the blood splashed on the wall.....Rollie vomited in the corner...His lady friend screamed!

"ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHH!!!"

I hung my head!!!!

IV-

I stood outside with my arms around Sissy and Carlotta....  We watched as the body of Olivia Rockland/Rachel was taken out of Rollie's condo...His lady friend gave a statement, dressed and got in her car and left....
Rollie looked devestated...

Sissy walked over to him....Put her arms around him....and said.

"It's over now Rollie..It's finally over.." she said.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh SISSY!!!!!...." he moaned...

Rollie  who had on only  a t-shirt and boxers pulled Sissy to him in an embrace... He tried to kiss her, She turned her head and  pushed him away....

"OH MY GOD!!!You are incredible!!! I was just trying to comfort you...and you're trying to grope me and dry hump me...Oh my God!!...Put some pants on...you are just ..just....ewwwwww..disgusting!" she said.

"I'm sorry Sissy,I-I-I got carried away...you're just so..so sexy...I -I-I couldn't control myself..." he said.

Sissy walked away in disgust...

Carlotta laughed...She tried to hold it, but she couldn't...I laughed too...Sissy looked at both of us.....

"What?" she asked..

"Nothing...Nothing..." I said...I looked at Carlotta and she looked at me and we continued laughing...

EPILOUGE:

Surprisingly, Daniel Blunt was not charged with anything....He was fired from Blue skies though....

Poor Rollie Rollerson...His photo was on the cover of all of the daily newspapers and tabloids in his boxers, trying to explain how his ex-wife came to be in his condo trying to kill him and another woman....I surely hoped that his fiance,Portia Collins hadn't gotten the news in Los Angelas....

I laughed everytime I passed a newstand... I had nothing against Mr. Rollerson, but everytime I saw his photo..I laughed so hard my sides hurt...People thought I was crazy I know!

A few nights later ,Carlotta treated Sissy and me to Hot Dogs and coffee at Jakes Hot Dog Emporium..

''Damnn, these dogs are great " I said.

"You know, Kevin Morris told me about this place...bought me a hot dog from here once...but this is my first time ever being here." said Sissy.

"He brought me here once too after we cracked a case together.."said Carlotta.

"Speak of the devil...there he is." I said.

Kevin Morris and his wife, Sepia walked in...They saw us and sat down with us...

"There's my favorite Private Investigator.." laughed Sissy.

"My favorite Lawmen." he said with a Laugh..."What's up Keith? ,Carlotta...

"Hola Kevin...Sepia...We were just talking about you..." said Carlotta.

"Hope it was all good."he said as he and his wife were served their hot dogs...

"But of course.." laughed Carlotta.

He looked at Sissy...

"I heard about Olivia Rockland....You alright Sissy?" he asked.

She placed her hand on his...

"Yes...I'm fine..Thank you again old friend.." she said.

"Don't mention it Sissy,don't mention it." said Kevin...

Kevin whispered in my ear...

"Poor Rollie....Can't seem to stay out of the papers."

"Or keep his pants on." I said...

Kevin and I both laughed loudly...Sissy,Carlotta and Sepia looked at us...

"Man Talk" was all I would say. 

The night went on.....

I held Carlotta's hand and squeezed it gently...She leaned her head gently on my shoulder  and we all continued to eat our fabulous hot dogs...
