Ella ran down the stairs. She halted when she saw some men pointing guns at her and then an unfamiliar face walked toward her.

“Ella Jones?” Vons questioned with surprise on his face.

Ella leaned on the wall as she tried to catch her breath, “Alarick,” she breathed out, “he is there. He is still there and there is a shootout. He is injured,” she grabbed the sleeves of Vons’ shirt and cried, “please, save him. He is bleeding,” tears run down her cheeks.

Vons nodded his head, “Sure. Miss Ella, I will save Alarick, we will go now and save him.” He turned away from her to someone behind, “Get her to the ambulance to her sister.”

Ella’s eyes widened and she held him again, “is Isla already out?”

Vons turned to her and he bobbed his head, “Yes. Miss.”

Ella let out a relieved breath but then she grabbed him again, “Gab too. He is injured. I don’t know where he is but he is badly injured.”

“Oh, really,” Vons turned to his people, “let's go then!”

They climbed the stairs but halted at the loud sound. Vons bent down as he heard the sound.

“IT'S A BOMB!”

Vons’ eyes widened in shock, he stood up and ran upstairs but his comrade held his hand, “Sir, it's dangerous.” Vons pulled his hand out and ran into the room, “Alarick!”

He pressed his arm on his nose and narrowed his eyes to look for Alarick. The sight he saw threw him backward and he looked away as he saw blood everywhere. He looked away and bit his lips in disappointment. Vons fell down to his knees and tears poured on his cheeks.

Alarick. Really? You? Take your life to save us?’

Meanwhile, Ella froze where she was bent at. Her eyes were shaky and she didn’t know what to do. She looked up at the smoke gushing out of the room and suddenly, she let out a sob.

‘You left me! I said it! I left you and this is the outcome!’

She slapped her hands on her chest, “it’s my fault!”

Suddenly, Isla ran into the building, “Where is my sister?!!”

Her eyes met Ella who was on the floor and she rushed to hug her. Ella looked up at her sister and tears poured down her cheeks, “Isla, he told me to leave and I did. He said it would be fine but he lied. He lied to me!”

Hagrid glanced up with tears filled in his eyes, he turned away and tears flowed on his face.

Emilio rushed into the building with Steve, Dave and some of Alarick’s men.

“What did I hear? Who is dead?” Emilio pulled the earbud from his ear and stared at them with worried eyes.


One of the comrades turned to them and shook his head, “Alarick.”

“No. No, that’s not true. My partner isn’t dead. He is playing,” Emilio shook his head with a smile on his face although his heartbeat was hitting rapidly but he ignored it.

When no one smiled, he rushed up the stairs and climbed it. He entered inside the room and looked away when he saw blood on the floor. Emilio slammed his hand on the wall, “no!” He cried out, “my partner!”
