"Is Dawn dead?" I hear a feminine voice.

"Somebody wake her up. Can't believe this is happening now!" I think hear the voice of Jackie. But I do not know if this is reality, a nightmare, or I'm dead: I don't even know where I am.

"If you can hear me, I just want to let you know that you ruined my son's birthday party again. You always ruin everything. You say that you care about my son, but I don't see the love. All I see is selfishness, cowardliness, and hate. I was taking it easy on you, now I have to end you and everyone you care for. You have no one to blame but your self!" Jackie said.

I hear a gun being cocked in. Also, I hear crying, gasping, and screaming. I know that's my family and the agents scared. I feel the gun pointed at my head. There's no way for me to defend myself as I am barely conscious, the traitors are making sure my family and agents don't attack back, and Jackie is ready to kill me.

All I have to say is that I thank God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit for giving me my life. I know I committed a lot of sins in my life and I hope they can forgive me. I'm sorry that I couldn't protect my family and my fellow agents. I did not mean to bring them into this mess. I'm sorry to Jacob for causing him pain.

"You know what, me killing you won't make any difference." Jackie said, taking the gun away from my head. I don't know what she is trying to do now. She is so unpredictable and I know it's not going to be anything good.

"How about I let my son kill you! It makes sense since you were the one that caused him so much. You shot and killed his father, it's only right for him to get his revenge on you." Jackie suggests.

"Please, lord have mercy on my daughter!" My cries out. I could not agree more. I do not want Jacob to get involved in this situation. He already suffered enough, I don't want him traumatized by killing me. What mother would allow their child to do such a thing?

My vision does get slightly better, but what I'm about to experience is not something I want to witness with my own eyes.

I see Jackie giving her son a silencer gun. The same gun I used to shoot his father. Jacob does seem hesitant to hold the gun as he knows he doesn't want anything to do with it. But his mother is forcing him to take the gun, which is messed up. If he doesn't want to use the gun, then respect his decision. She's talking about me ruining his life, she is literally traumatizing him by forcing him to kill me. No child ever wishes or wants to do such a thing.

"Why are you hesitating to kill this woman? She is the enemy. She ruined your life! She killed your father! The man that I love so much." She breaks down in tears. Jade brings Jacob closer to me, she is blocking the way from him escaping. Graves, Oath, Clandestine, and Bold block the way so that no one escapes and no one tries to stop it.

"Point the gun at her head and kill her!" Jade yells at him, which made him cry. I feel so bad for him. He looks so uncomfortable and doesn't want to be a part of this. I can't believe they are forcing this boy to kill me. If he wanted to kill me, he could have done it a long time ago. This is just child cruelty and endangerment.

"Don't pity her! She caused all this to happen, she never cared about you, and she used you." Graves is gaslighting him to make me look like the villain. I have a strong hatred for him now!

"Kill her!" All the traitors said in unison.

The boy has no choice but to point the gun at me. I see a lot of tears running down his eyes, my heart is aching. I'm not even scared, I just feel sad. I wish that I could give him a hug and pour my heart out to him. But these monsters surrounding us will kill me without any hesitation. All I could do is tear up as well.

"Hey look, the greatest agent in the world is crying." Graves mocks me.

"Let her cry. She doesn't deserve anything good in life. A person like her deserves to suffer." Bold said.

"Forget about suffering, she needs to die. I don't know what is taking this boy so long to kill her." Oath said.

"Kill her before I kill you." Jade whispered to Jacob. But I could hear every word she told him. What are the intentions of these people? Why would Jade tell Jacob, the son of the woman she is working for, that she's going to kill him. Does Jackie know about this? Is that a way of convincing to kill me by threatening him? Either way, that was very suspicious of her. Right now, these are the most untrustworthy people ever.

Jade cocked the gun for Jacob. Giving me a sinister smile and waving "goodbye" to me.

All I see right now is a silencer gun pointed at me. I can't even see Jacob's face. Honestly, that's a good thing I don't have to see his face. At least it can soften the pain and my death won't be filled with sadness and heartbreak.

It all comes full circle now. I killed Julian and destroyed Jacob's life. Jacob goes missing and I tried to find him, but wasn't successful. Jacob found me, I tried to apologize, but he didn't accept. Now, I'm about to get shot and killed by the same person I tried to make things right with.

I hope he doesn't grow up to become just like his parents. He deserves better parents than those lunatics. I don't want him living a life of crime and ruining his life and others. All I want is for him to be happ-

A gunshot went off.
