In This Darkness

Maria,Maria

(Maxim's pov)

I got a call from Tom that Lori was at his place. I didn't answer anyone and I didn't bring more police reinforcements with me, and that's a big mistake.Tom he told me to be there in half an hour, so I immediately got dressed and left my miserable apartment.

I got in the car and drove. I was afraid of Tom and now he can kill me, but I have to save Lori. I arrived at my destination at half past 11 in the morning. I was in the car and looked to see when Tom would arrive.Tom and I were like brothers, but he could never understand me. I didn't want to deal with bad things anymore, I wanted to help people, not kill and destroy them, that's why I decided to become a policeman. I saw a black Audi approaching, it was Tom's car. The whole town knew it was his car and everyone ran away from the streets when they saw this black Audi.

I slowly got out of the car, followed by Tom. He looked at me sharply and asked if I had a weapon, and I showed him that I didn't. He opened the door from the passenger seat and roughly took the girl out. It was Lori, I recognized her from the picture, and Tom put duct tape over her mouth and tied her hands with string. I thought he would just hand her over to me and leave,but I was obviously wrong.He left Lori outside, and then he opened the back door and took out the girl, my Maria. She was half dead, all the sadness and hatred gathered in my chest. He hurt my Maria in order to break me, I just didn't know how he knew about me and Maria."Do you know this little girl?" asked Tom, mocking me.Maria noticed me, her eyes were beautiful, when she didn't see me she dropped a tear, she was barely alive.
Tom threw her on the ground, and I started to get closer to her, and Tom took out a gun from his jacket. I fell to the floor. Fortunately, I had a police body armor with which I protected myself from the bullets. I played dead and after a few minutes I heard Tom's car start up and drive away.

When the sound of his car disappeared, I stood up. The car was gone, and Maria was left half dead on the ground.I quickly ran towards her. She was still alive. I sat next to her and rested her head on my hand."Maria, how, where did you come from with them?" I asked her, breaking my voice and ccrying."Georg, I was in a relationship with him and cheated on him with you, I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want to lose you." Maria said through her tears, and I caressed her hair and my tears fell on her. "Meri, you could have just said, we would have solved it.I cried.She lost a lot of blood and started spitting blood from her mouth. I screamed from the breakdown and a river of tears poured down.I took out my phone to call an ambulance immediately. She grabbed my hand and told me "Don't call anyone, I want to die, my life is shit, and the only light is you, but I don't want to ruin you." She held my hand tightly, and I cried for her and for her words. Blood was gushing from her mouth, and now her hand was letting go of mine and she died. She died in my arms.I cried and shouted her name "Maria, Meri, don't go."

She was dead, and I was screaming for her and crying. I remembered the night we met in the club. Her smile and her eyes stunned me and I immediately fell in love with her. She was much younger than me and I didn't think there would ever be anything between us, but after that she made me a couple day invited us to go for a walk and that's when our first kiss happened.I was so in love with her and couldn't resist her. She was originally from Spain and she was telling me how we were going to escape there together. I loved her black eyes, I enjoyed listening to her voice, and now I will never hear it again, because Tom took it all away.

I hated Tom, but I would never do this to him, but that's Tom Kaulitz. I want to save Lori, so she doesn't end up like Maria, but I can't. Maria is gone, I'm broken. LA is just a city that always brought me bad luck.That's why I'm going to run far away from Los Angeles, just like Maria said and find my peace.

(After that, Maxim ran away to Canada and did not contact anyone.)
