Chapter 7 -

'' What the hell were you thinking.'' Artis rolled her eyes at her brothers lecture. After she threw away the gun she used, her brother pulled up in his wifes car. He pulled his sister up by arm and pushed her into the car.

''Just shut it will you!''

Dario slammed his hands on the car wheel and took a sudden swerve around a corner causing Artis to bash against the car door and hissed in pain.

''I don't know why you still treat me like a little girl... I'm clearly not anymore.'' Artis said sighing in defeat. The uncomfortable silence between the two created a thick tension.

''Because you do stupid stuff like this. You went out of the house in my car to meet a complete stranger who wants to kill you, oh and you then get yourself shot.''

Artis pulled her wrist close to her chest and leaned against the car window.

''When are we nearly there?'' she asked silently. The bullet wound was staining her jacket.

'' 10 more minutes.''

12 years ago

''Dario please come and take me to the park'' twelve year Artis cried dragging her brother by the hand

'' Fine'' he sighed grabbing his shoes and picking up some change. Artis squealed in delight and quickly hugged her older brother before running out of the door.

''Slow down will you. The park isn't going anywhere anytime soon'' He said.

Artis rolled her eyes and continued to skip down the path. 

''Thank you Dario.'' She whispered to her brother holding onto his hand. 

''You're welcome'' He smiled

Soon the siblings arrived at the local park down the road from they lived at.

Artis stared with awe at the park.It had been years since she last had been there. Her father had banned her from going when she 7 because someone worked out that the children were Mendozas and tried to kill them.

''Go and play.'' Dario chuckled staring at his little sisters expression.

''Thank you!'' she squealed and ran off.

The young girl played for hours, however before the sibling realised it was turning dark.

''Come on Artis, it's getting late now.'' Dario called out.

''Coming.''

''we're here Artis.''

Artis felt here self be sucked out of the dream world she called her memory. Dario opened the car door and slammed it shut leaving Artis alone in the car. She took in a deep breathe and walked out of the car. She already knew that Dario's wife would be pissed off and that was an understatement.  

Artis walked up to the white door and walked in to find Demelza and Dario sat on the sofa staring directly at her. 

''Do you have anything to say for yourself?'' Demelza snarled

''Yeah..'' Artis admitted. 

''Well, what is it?''

''Your cooking sucks.'' Artis giggled to herself and walked out of the door.

''ARTIS MENDOZA COME BACK RIGHT THIS SECOND!.'' Dario screamed out the door.

Artis carried on walking though. She breathed a sigh of relief and walked down the alley way between her brothers estate and the outside world. It was a short cut that shouldn't exist but Artis found it out on a job. 

''Hey pretty lady'' A voice said

''Piss off''

''Feisty, i like it.''

Artis turned in the direction of the voice and cocked one brow. 

''listen pretty boy, I haven't got time for your games so leave me alone and i'll leave you alone.''Artis smirked and carried on walking.

As Artis walked she saw the guy pop out of nowhere a stand right in front of her.

''Look i have business to attend to so if you could just move out of the way.'' Artis offered placing her hand on her gun in her waistband. 

''I know who you are, and Lopez is offering a lot of money for your head.''

''For fucks sake.'' Artis whispered. Of course he would. 

'' piss off okay or i'll be forced to hurt you.''

''Boys, Get her.''  Before Artis could react 8 men appeared.

'' Oh fuck this.'' She muttered.

'' Artis knew she wouldn't win against all 8 of them but she could bloody well try.

'' Game on boys.'' She smirked grabbing her gun out of her waist band. 

'' I don't think so miss Mendoza.''

 All 8 of the men pulled out a pistol and aimed it at Artis. 

'' You've got to be shitting me.''
