~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amora's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~No.
No.
No, no, no, no!
It happened in the blink of an eye but it felt like time had slowed. I could see it all play out before me, the path of the blade and who it would hit. My hand went out in an attempt to stop the blade. But I was too late.
"No!" I yelled out. I hoped deep down that my voice had the power to reverse time and stop the blade. But here I was, forced to watch as the blade went in the direction of my sister.
Before the blade could reach her heart, Raphael pushed Aria. Everything around me was silent and I could only focus on Aria's shout of pain. "Aria!" I yelled as I ran towards my sister who was bleeding on the floor. I dropped to my knees and searched for where she got hit.
However, Raphael pushed me to the side and picked Aria up. Seeing my sister unconscious, almost dead made the tears in my eyes vanish. Fury and anger surged through my veins. I turned around looked for her.
Bingo.
My legs began to run before my brain could think. I felt like my feet were flying, making sure that my body was fast enough to catch up with the masked woman. Once I was in close enough range, I shot at her. I kept shooting until one of my bullets hit her shoulder. She groaned in pain but kept running. I tried to shoot again but my gun was out of bullets.
I was about to reload when I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist. Suddenly, I was tossed over a shoulder and taken away from the masked woman. "Let go of me!" I kicked my legs hoping that I could escape whoever was holding me.
"Amora enough!" Helios voice said above me. "No! I had her! I had her!" I was yelling but my voice was hoarse from the events before. "Alexei-". I didn't listen to what Helios was saying and was focusing my attention on escaping his grasp.
I heard him talking with other people. I still swung my body around in a frantic motion but the sting of a needle made my muscles slowly relax despite my will to fight it. The last thing I saw before my vision went black, was Aria bleeding out in the car.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I shoot up from where I am. My mind is frantic, trying to piece together yesterday's events. Aria.Oh shit, Aria!
I leap out of my bed and sprint down the hallway. I turn the hallway and bump into something firm. I push myself off and I look up to find Helios. Memories of what he did surge through my brain and before I can think, I go to punch him.
However, right before my fist collided with his face his hand tightly grips my wrist. I look up at him with an angry face and he stares down at me with a tight expression.
"You should think before you act kroshka. I would hate for you to die by someone else's hand" Helios says still holding into my wrist.
"If you ever pull that shit again, I won't hesitate to kill you. I almost had her and you stopped me! She could've been-" Before I can finish my sentence, Helios covers his free hand over my mouth.
