Chicago's Furious

Innocent

Alexa's POV
Alexa: I'm telling you, I'm innocent!

I shout as I lose my patience. I'm in the interrogation room handcuffed for like five hours and these guys won't give up. They just keep blaming me for hurting Herrman.

I look at Harrods and Martinez, the two agents interrogating me, and take a deep breath.

Alexa: I would never hurt a good friend. We were just in the storage room, a guy walked in, I grabbed a knife to defend myself and we started fighting. Then he pushed me and I accidentally knived Herrman.

Harrods: Yeah, accidentally.

He says with sarcasm in his voice.

Alexa:I'm telling the truth!

I yell while widening my eyes.

Harrods: Yelling won't get us anywhere Ms. Marshall.

I roll my eyes and sit back on my chair waiting for this interrogation to end.

Martinez: Where is your team Alexa?

Alexa : How the hell would I know?

Martinez : Oh, you know.

Alexa:All I know is that I left LA months ago and my team totally forgot about me.

Martinez : You call yourselves a family and you say that they forgot about you?

I stay silent for a while and just nod.

Harrods:What about that diary of yours?

Alexa: I don't have any diary.

Harrods: I'm pretty sure that you knew something like that would happened so I bet you and your team would be ready for anything. So, why don't you tell me that plan of yours?

Alexa: There is no plan. And I bet you know that I didn't hurt Herrman and you just look for an excuse to put us all behind the bars.

Harrods: Don't try to cover up your own mistakes.

Harrods and Martinez share a look right before Martinez walks out the room. Harrods waits a few minutes while looking at the mirror, before he speaks.

Harrods: You're a smart girl Alexa. And your team has caused many problems in the past. People are looking for you to kill you. You were a pain in the ass, God damn it. And now you're gonna pay.

Martinez walks in and nods to Harrods. Then two huge guys come and grab my arms. I try to fight but to keep me immobilized, they hit my head on the table, making my nose bleed. I still try to fight but they keep me still.

They drag me out of the room and after they check the hallway to see if there's anyone there, they take me in another room where a van is parked. They throw me in the back of the van and close the door behind me. With my tied up hands, I hit the door and try to open it, but pointless. I feel the vehicle moving and I give up by sitting back. While I'm sitting there I hear them talking.

Martinez: Once we get her there, what do we do?

Harrods: We just take her there. It's not our job to decide what happens then. We just hide the fact that we took her. The person paying us is not to be messed with.

Martinez: And what do you think will happen to her?

Harrods:Like i said, it's not our job to decide. We just hope Alexa Marshall will be gone for good.

Once he says that, the anger inside of me gets stronger.
"Alexa Marshall won't fall like that"
I whisper to myself.

Then I remember that I have a necklace in the shape of a little card. I take off my necklace and place it on the lock. I hear a click and smile. Once I push the doors to open I fall off the van and roll on the street. Thankfully there were no cars since it was almost night-time.

I get up and see that blood is pouring out of my head and knee. I don't care so I look around for a place to hide. Once I realize where I am, I start heading to Molly's. I'm thinking of entering through the back door and Gabby who might be working there tonight can help me.

I know, it's not a great plan, but still it's a plan. While I'm walking towards there I try to avoid cars and people. Once I'm meters away from Molly's, I can recognize Matt and Gabby walking out of there. I let out a sigh of relief and start heading towards there. But they head to their car which is towards the opposite direction. I try to raise my speed but my bleeding knee doesn't help.

I hear some voices behind me and once I turn around, I see Harrods and Martinez a few feet away from me, running towards me, gaining speed with each step. I try to run and I do it. I get to realize that the two men are close to me so I try to yell, but right before I do it, a hand covers my mouth and another one pushes me on the wall on the right so i hit my head. I fall down, my vision blurry as the two men grab me and take me back to the van. They put me in the back and we drive off right before I lose my senses and throw myself into a deep sleep.
