Rescuing The Chief

Lauren's POV

Back outside Cyrus's replica Colosseum, everyone holds weapons in their hands.

I turn to Mr. Reynolds and the Hemsworth brothers. "You three have been in there after there are no events. What is the security like?" I ask.

"There are two at each entrance. There are four groups in the each floor hall, each in a pair of twos, they walk around," Mr. Reynolds says.

"Most importantly there are 10 men total in the fighting grounds," Mr. Chris Hemsworth speaks.

"And inside the cells there are always six men to watch over the prisoners," Mr. Liam Hemsworth says.

"The men outside will be easy to take out. The ones in the hall can be avoided, the hard ones will be the ones that are patrolling the battle grounds and the cells," I speak.

Miss Cabello grips her bow and grabs an arrow, loading it up. "It does not matter. These assholes are not getting between me and saving my father," She says.

"Miss Cabello we need to play this smart and silent," I said.

"You are the smart, I am the silent," Miss Cabello says.

I smile softly at her as I look back out at the Colosseum. "You guys free the prisoners. I am going after Cyrus," I said.

"By yourself? No way in hell," Miss Cabello says.

"You need to get the prisoners," I said.

"Please at least take the brothers with you," Miss Cabello says.

"We want you to be safe as well, Miss Jauregui," Mr. Chris Hemsworth says.

I clench my fist and say, "I want to be the only one Cyrus sees last right before he dies."

"Let someone at least come with you, Miss Jauregui," Mr. Liam Hemsworth says.

"Okay. Mr. Reynolds, you are with me. The brothers are with Miss Cabello," I said.

I stand up as Mr. Reynolds follows me while Miss Cabello and the brothers move to the opposite side where we are going.

Camila's POV

"Okay. There are two men right there. I get one, Sir Liam gets the other," I said.

"Which one do I get?" Sir Liam asks.

"The one on the right," I said.

"But you are on the right," Sir Liam says.

"I shoot better to the left. Just get the man on the right," I said.

"Of course," Sir Liam says.

We creep around in the darkness as I raise my bow and arrow and aim it at the man on the left while Sir Liam raises a throwing knife, aiming at the man on the right.

"3... 2... 1... Release," I speak softly.

The arrow flies across the air and pierces the guard on the left in the chest as he falls dead while the throwing knife embeds itself in the throat of the guard on the right.

"Nice shot, Sir Liam," I speak softly, smiling.

"Nice archery skills, Miss Camila," Liam says.

"Let us move," I said.

Quietly and efficiently, the Hemsworth brothers and I move towards the now unguarded entrance.

"Hide the bodies," I ordered.

The brothers pick the bodies up effortlessly and hide them in the dark, out of sight.

We enter inside and hide behind walls and pillars to avoid patrolling guards as we near the fighting grounds.
