that had just been hit by Jason’s block. “Now, you don’t want to do that son if you know what’s good for you.” He removed his truncheon and waved the ten-inch long heavy weapon at Jason.
Jason took a deep breath and relaxed. For a few years he had been trying to calm himself down after a high adrenaline fight. He knew he had a terrible temper.
“Yes officer. I’m sorry. I thought you were attacking me. I was the one that called you,” Jason said softly. He relaxed and leant against a wall. The adrenaline rush had exhausted him. The policeman went to help Betty who was hanging out the window and screaming for help.
Spencer climbed to his feet. “I was just dropping something off. I have to leave.” He made his way to the hallway.
“Sir, I'll need a statement first,” The policewoman said.
“Eh, my names John Smith,” he stuttered. “I have to leave.” He tried to make his way to the door.
“Ma'am, I work for SYUI. I called them and they alerted you as first response. No one is leaving until they get here. This guy is called Spencer he works for some guy called the doctor,” Jason told her.
She looked at Jason, her mouth opened as if she was going to say something; she was puzzled and made her way to the front door.
“No one is leaving until we find out what happened here,” she ordered.
Spencer cursed and made his way back down the hall and sat on the stairs. “I’m not saying anything until I see my lawyer.”
The policewoman never spoke to Jason again, she was unsure if he was telling the truth and was not sure what to think of the situation, she decided to wait for back up to arrive and let her seniors take over. More police arrived, Mew Gardens lit up with blue flashing lights and sirens. Police cars, two ambulances, and four black unmarked SYUI cars arrived.
George Young arrived with Barbara Inkpen. The police stepped aside when George and his staff waved their ID cards. George walked past the police and entered the home. He found Jason sat on the floor in the hallway with his head down, resting on his knees.
“Are you okay Jason?” he asked. Jason looked up and forced a smiled. He lifted his hand up, and George pulled him to his feet. Jason took George and Barbara into the kitchen and explained everything to them. George was pleased with the results; Kissinger was arrested although like Betty, was taken to hospital first.
The children were collected by social services. They would all later be given counselling. Many would return home, some would be sent into foster care. Jason gave his statements, the cut on his face was treated, and George personally drove him home.
“Well Jason, here we are again. Another case solved by Jason Steed.” George grinned.
“Not exactly, George. We never found Abigail.” Jason sighed.
“Oh, she was picked up the same night you disappeared. The Salvation Army reunited her with her parents. She was cold and hungry and very lucky not to have been picked up by Kissinger and his gang.
“So I did this for absolutely nothing?”
“On the contrary. Kissinger was selling some children to a horrid man they called the doctor. Kissinger will tell us everything, that’s the type of weasel he is. He'll try and get a smaller prison sentence for information. This Doctor guy has been selling young body organs to the highest bidder. That Spencer is a low life scumbag who works for him. A real nasty piece of work.”
“I don’t want to think about it. It’s sick. They was going to take a pretty girl called Denise. By tomorrow she could have been cut up and killed,” Jason said ,screwing up his face like he was about to vomit.
“I know. At least now he won’t be able to hurt anyone again, and those kids will all be better off, thanks to you. This is why we preach to children do not talk to strangers . You never know what people are like or what they intend.”

Two days later, Jason walked across the schoolyard, surrounded by hundreds
