Make It There

We arrived at my town about one hour and fifteen minutes later by train. Since we were about thirty minutes away at my house (walking distance), we hopped on a cab and got dropped off at the entrance of my neighborhood. We walked down the road towards my house.
"My house is right around this corner on a cul-de-sac..." I walked on the corner and turned to my right.
Instead of joy filling heart because I was finally at my house, my heart was filled with shock.
"Tuukka..." Pekka's voice seemed far away.
"My house..."
"What about your house? Where is it?"
There, were my house was at was now...nothing.
"My house...it's gone..."
"What? How can that happen?"
Then one name came into my mind: Bebe.
"NOOOOOO!!!" I began to ran down the street as fast as I was able to. "BEBE!!!" I stopped when I saw rubble, ashes, and burned furniture scattered before me. "Bebe?" I looked out at the ocean that was now visible, since my house was no longer able to block the view. I felt weak and fell to my knees. I placed my head in my hands and began to cry.
"What the heck happened to your house?" Pekka walked up behind me.
I shook my head. "En tiedä, en tiedä..." (I don't know, I don't know...)
"Where's your wife?"
"En tiedä." (I don't know.)
Pekka sighed.
"It's Kari..." I got up and wiped my eyes. "Kari did this."
"How do you know--?"
I turned to Pekka."WHO ELSE DO YOU THINK WOULD DO THIS?!"
"But he can't--"
"He's. Not. NICE! He's evil, he's a villain--Face it, Pekka, it's true!"
"Okay then, so he also took away your wife?"
I looked down at the mess. "Yea..."
"Now why would he do that?"
"To mess with me! I don't know! I'm not him! He won't explain anything to me!"
Pekka stayed quiet.
"That's it, I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind." I began to walk away.
"Tuukka, no." Pekka pulled me back.
"Let go, Pekka. I done with this--I'm not putting up with this anymore." I tried to escape from Pekka's grasp.
"Tuukka, it won't help; beating him up would not do anything."
I stopped fighting Pekka. "Yes it would--it'll teach him to not mess with me!"
"Please Tuukka, don't go. What's gonna happen with me?"
"You can come."
"You don't know what Kari is capable of."
"Yes I do."
"You know what?"
"What?"
"I know someone...who just might help."
"Oh great, now we're gonna drag someone else into the scene. No, Pekka, it's fine--"
"He'll help you. You'll thank me later."
"I don't want help and I don't need it. I just want to get this over with, okay?"
"He can kill you."
"I have powers."
"Do you know how to use them?"
"Yea." I crossed my arms.
Pekka scoffed. "Valehtelija." (Liar.)
"Excuse me?!"
"Tuukka, let's play this the safe way. The last thing I want is to see your grave next week. So please?"
"How do you know if this guy can help me?"
"Because he dealt with Kari a few times. Trust me, he knows more things about him than Kari's wife."
"Oh really?" I rose my eyebrows.
"Yea. It is a possibility. Anyways, he lives like fifteen minutes away from here. I'll lead you."
"Fine. But if he's a waste of my time, I'm going straight to that island."
"Got it."
