SHAINEZ POV:

"We have to go, they must have placed some explosive device on the windows."

"Six-"

"Stay behind me,they could be in the house"

"Please six-"

He turns to face me, looking furious.

"Listen to me for once !" He yells

"No ! You listen to me !" I yell back "They're not here."

"How the fuck would you know-"

I bit my lip,frustrated.

"I did it."

He doesn't immediately reply.

"That's not funny." He says "Just listen to me. They could fucking kill you."

"I'm not joking,Six."

There's a silence.

"What do you mean you're not joking ? Why would you do that ? We could've been hurt."

"I didn't do it on purpose,I'm sorry."

" Did you press the button of the device by accident ?"

I take a deep breath and look at him.

"Six.There's no device."

"What ?"

I look at Six before staring at a random pot in the living room and focus.
A few seconds later,it explodes.

Six stares at me, stunned, before regaining his neutral face.

"Ok " he says "We'll definitely talk about that later.For now, take some clothes. We're leaving."

I nod, go to my room and grab some clothes as quickly as i can.

When I finish and head downstairs and find Six waiting for me, holding his car keys.
He's silently studying what remains of the pot I just broke.

"What are we gonna do ?" I ask.

"Take you somewhere safe, then I'll find Claire"

"We'll find Claire." I insist "Shouldn't we tell my dad?"

"yeah"

He gets his phone out of his pocket and starts dialing my dad's number, he answers quickly, which surprises me. He never answers that fast.

"Donald?"

"Six." My father's voice sounds dreadful.

Six probably noticed, because he frowns before saying:

"Claire, she got kidnapped. I'm sorry." He clenches his jaw. "I couldn't protect her."

I bit my lip.

If I wasn't so stubborn, if we hadn't gone to the supermarket, maybe he could've protected her.

This is all my fault.

"I know."

What? Six looks as surprised as me.

"What do you mean you know?"

"They got me too. They told me they took her."

My heart drops.

"Who ?"

"Sierra Six" An unknown voice replies instead of my father.

"Who are you?" Six asks with a serious tone.

"I'm Lloyd, I'm pretty sure you already heard my name. I run this operation." The man sounds amused.

"What operation ?"

"We want the girl." Lloyd answer.

"You already have her. And I'll take her back."

Lloyd chuckles.

"Not the kid. The other one."

Is he talking about me?

"Why ?"

"C'mon buddy ! You know why ! And if you want Fitzroy and Claire to be safe. Just give her up. Understood ?"

"Yeah, I don't think I will."

"Listen. She can kill you if she wants to. She's dangerous. Why are you protecting her? If you give her up, we can handle the situation and keep everyone safe. "

His words feel like a punch. How does he know?
Six quickly glances at me.

"Why would she be dangerous?" He asks playing innocent.

There's a silence.

"You know what my specialty is,six ?"

"No and I really don't care."

"Torture."

He hangs up on those words.
