Water and Desert

46-Can Die For You

Shawn entered the old warehouse building through the tunnel behind it. The tunnel was so old that he could see the cracks in the walls. From the external appearance of it, he could tell that it was used to store wooden logs. Pointing his gun in front, he checked the area, finding a way inside the building. The huge steel gate of the warehouse was corroded so much that it was impossible to break that barrier. Looking for a portal, he caught sight of an opening sealed by a bar wall. He quickly ran towards it and tried to open it but it was in vain, the bars were so resistant and strong. Looking at the broken wall above the bars, he came up with an idea. He grabbed the iron pipe placed near it and started hitting the wall with it. The wall which was already damaged and deteriorated, quickly fell down leaving a space for Shawn to slide through it.

Shoving his gun in his pants, he climbed of the bar grills in a dark corridor. He pulled out his phone to lit up the touch and started making his way inside.

"Hurry up!" Camila shouted as Hailey faced difficulty in climbing up the wooden ladder. She gave her a hand but as soon as he pulled her up, she saw a glimpse of Diego running towards the place. She closed the lid of the basement floor, leading towards the basement and dragged a table placed on the side corner to add wait on lid.

"We have to find our way out." She told Hailey who was panting with one hand on her chest.

They ran as fast as possible. The sound of Diego cursing and hitting the lid was echoing in the hallway of the building which was filled with deteriorating machines and glass bottles. Camila picked up a bottle to defend herself in case any bad would happen. Then ran towards the open place from where the light was coming in but it was enclosed by the huge gate.

First they searched for a door to escape but they didn't find it. It was the blind end for the two of them. There was no going back, if they'd go back, they would've to face Diego. In anxiousness, panic, fear and hopelessness, Camila started to hit the gate with her feet.

"Why can't you fuckin open.." She said  with tears streaming down from her eyes.

"It's my end, he's gonna kill me." Hailey said, kneeling down in defeat.

"No! We can't give up, there has to be another way." She said looking for a way but soon Diego appeared. He was red in anger and some of the sauce traces were still stuck on his face.

"You thought, it's easy to run from me." He spat in anger moving towards Camila.

"Don't you dare to come near me." Camila said looking at him fiercely, pointing her bottle towards him.

"You think this little shit can save you Camila! Come on." He laughed making fun of her and then lift up his gun to shoot the bottle. Camila screamed as she felt the glass smashing in her hand with full force. Her hand got slightly wounded but she couldn't feel the pain. She froze in her place, her body trembling with fear. She felt like she couldn't breathe anymore when Diego grabbed her by her arm and pulled her closer to him.

"Sweetheart I was so good to you." He said softly. "Why you fuckin do that." He shouted suddenly, making her to shrink in his strong hold. He was holding her with so much force that her arms left with a clear red marks on them.

"And you...I told you, you're gonna die." He said pointing a gun towards Hailey.

"Please!!" She shouted helplessly as she cried.

"No no no, just leave her, I beg you." Camila pleaded crying as he held her by her one arm.

"Close your eyes baby girl." He told her.
