The Target

Accomplice...!!

I slid down by the pole, bawling my eyes out. Beverly was in front of me, tied and bloody. Adam was just in the next room, doing god knows what. "A-Amy?" Bev whispered, weakly. "Beverly! Bev, I am so sorry! I didn't know he was-" No word left my mouth. The person I loved the most was out to kill me. Giving me a slow and painful death. She inhaled a sharp breath, wincing at the sting. Blood was still seeping out from the fresh cuts he made. I squeezed my eyes shut and tugged at the cuffs hard.

"Adam is with y-your other f-friend," She gasped. "What?" I asked. Adam was in the room behind Beverly with Harry.

"HEY, ADAM! YOU HAVE YOUR GIRLFRIEND WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT FROM ME?" The door of the warehouse opened a bit revealing none other than Logan Riley, Adam's boss. "Hey, Amy! What's up?" He smirked at me. "H-How?" I stuttered. It's all a blur. Why would Logan help Adam? They both are insane, I thought until it hit me. "You killed Lewis?" I rasped slowly. "Is that what his name was? Well, pretty name but ugly screams, to be honest," Logan shrugged.

Just then Adam appeared wiping his blood-red hands. I gasped at the amount of blood in his hands. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HARRY?" I screamed. He just smirked and went to Logan. "Get me the remains of  Macy. And did you parcel Lewis's fingers?" Logan nodded. They were talking as if I am not even in here. As if it is all normal. Logan gave me one last glance and left. There were many questions in my head right now, but the one that was disturbing me the most was What is taking Kurtz so long?  "Isn't it great having such a close friend who is willing to kill with you?" Adam smiled. "How l-long have y-you been-?" The dreaded question. The question I regretted as soon as I asked. "The moment I looked at you," He answered nonchalantly. "Oh wait!" He went back to the room Harry was in. Beverly was unconscious and her head hung low as blood was pooled around her. I would have puked at the sight a year and a half back. But Adam's doings made the sight just painful.

Not soon after, there was some screeching sound like a chair being dragged-

Oh, wait! Adam is bringing Harry here. No no no. I can't see Harry in that state. I thought. My mind was clouded, eyes closed. The screeching grew louder until it stopped. It feels like time has stopped. I am frozen until a whisper escapes, "Amy!"

I thought I was shattered when I found out Adam was the killer. But if that was me breaking then there is nothing that could describe what I am right now. The weakest, most hushed whisper I've ever heard just slipped from Harry's lips. Harry! The person who was my best friend when I moved to Manhattan. The person who introduced me to Adam. The person who lost his brother because of me. Someone who almost died. "LOOK AT HIM!" Adam thundered over my cowered figure. I slowly lifted my head with my eyes closed. Adam let out a frustrated sigh and said, "Amy! Don't make this worse for Harry!"

Anger and pain sparked through me when I saw finally looked at Harry. The broken nose, the busted lip, swollen eyes. His face was covered in blood. Harry's life was hanging by a thread. "ADAM, I'LL KILL YOU!" I shouted as Harry coughed up a huge amount of blood. "Poor Harry, isn't it?" Adam said as calmly as he could.

I'll kill him. I'll kill him. I'll kill him. I'LL KILL HIM.

Everything was quiet before I heard faint sirens outside. "What did you do?" Adam asked me before he turned around to the warehouse door.  I let out a breathe, "Harry, Kurtz is here. please, please keep your eyes open!"

"IF YOU COME NEAR THIS DOOR, THEIR BLOOD WILL BE ON YOUR HANDS!" Adam shouted as he stood at the door. "Amy! Just when I was about to go easy on you, your precious detective shows up!" The calmness killed the confidence in me. "ADAM FORSTER! IT WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU SURRENDER, ELSE WE WILL TAKE SERIOUS ACTIONS AGAINST YOU," Kurtz shouted through the speaker. "WE HAVE YOUR PARTNER IN CUSTODY!" Adam's head whipped back.

"Idiot!"
