Terrifying Red [Mikoto x Oc]

Three

"Michael.." Tears ran down Ashton's rosy cheeks as she glanced around her brother's room.

"Where the hell are you..?" Giving off a loud sob, the girl collapsed into the missing boy's bed, snuggling his pillow.

She just sat there for a good 20 minutes, crying her heart out. With no more tears to cry, Ashton rose from the boy's room and went out into the hall; shuffling her steps.

Suddenly, a loud knocking was at her door. Ever since Michael disappeared three days ago, Ashton has kept a handgun close to her at all times. Shuffling slowly over to the door, Ashton peered through the peephole. Three tall men stood on the other side; and what Ashton could make out, a silver gun shined in one's hands. Gasping quietly, Ashton pulled her handgun from her belt and quietly slid on her shoes. Keeping her breath quiet and her gun pointed at the door, Ashton shuffled over to the fire escape. Unlatching the lock, she steps out onto the fire escape and ducks down quickly; only to hear her front door being kicked in.

"Where the hell is that brat?" A gruff voice spoke. Ashton's eyes began to water as she gripped onto her gun harshly, and slowly crawled down the fire escape.

"Boss! Over here! The windows open!"

"Shit." Standing up quickly and turning around to see the men peering out her window at her, Ashton yelps and sprints down the fire escape, And jumps down onto the sidewalk. Tucking her gun into her belt she makes a quick look back at her window, And sprints down the sidewalk.

"Please! I'm being followed!" Ashton glances outside the small cafe's window with worry, then turns back to the woman at the counter.

"I'm sorry ma'am. I can call the police but I can't hide you."

Growling loudly, Ashton throws her hands up in the air in defeat and scratches her thigh.

Wait.

Her. Thigh.

Homra.

Gunshots erupted into the store, making Ashton yell and jump over the counter.

"Thanks for nothing bitch." Crawling into the back room quickly- Ashton stands up and sprints out the back door into the alleyway.

"Shit Now how do I Get to Homra from here."

Glancing down the alleyway quickly, Ashton takes off on a full-run. Ducking through people as she ran down the sidewalk, Ashton glanced around frantically. And yet again, from behind her shots were heard along with loud, gruff voices over the screaming of pedestrians.

"GET BACK HERE YOU BITCH."

Yelling, Ashton keeps running through the terrified crowd; and finally yells in relief when Homra comes into view. Sprinting across the road; Ashton barely makes it to the door, and a gunshot was heard. She yells loudly in pain. Gripping her bleeding arm tightly, she lets out a few tears and sprints as fast as she can to the bar doors; rips them open, runs inside; and slams them shut. Her aching body whips around and stares at Izumo, Mikoto, Anna, Yata, And Rikio who were just looking at her with wide eyes.

She grips her arm and let's out a wail as a gunshot went through the windows, and barely misses her. All of the men in the room shot up and ran over, Izumo picked her up and took her behind the bar, and Mikoto and the other rushed outside, Flames beginning to flare up as they left.

"Rough day?" Giving a half-hearted smirk at him, Ashton rolls her eyes and props herself up on the wood of the bar.

"Don't get me started." Izumo smiles and Glances behind him, seeing Anna with a First Aid kit.
