Chapter 10
I've been running for hours, days it seems like. I'm trying to find Jake and Sonya. I look to my left hearing the sounds of a bush move. I instantly walk towards the bush, I have a gun. I'm not stupid. Jake and Sonya pop up and they both hug me, Sonya even hugs me. "How did you guys, why-" Jake chuckles and responds, "You set off our triggers. I'm very good with my technical skills. Sonya here suggested we meet you down here, she kind of wanted you tired. She wants you to rest so we can hatch a plan." I nod and we head off to a building. I lay down and it feels like I instantly relax and slip into a slumber.
I'm running. Running away from the bad guys. They caught me, all I can do is run. They've already hurt me, they've killed Jake. Sonya, she turned us in, that stupid bitch. I can't believe it. All I've done is run, my breathing is ragged. I feel like I'm already dead. As I heard the footsteps thundering closer, my legs increased their speed. I had to get away from this, I was too young to die. Too young. A bullet whizzed past my ear and I involuntarily let out an ear shattering scream. Yet, my feet seemed to continuing moving despite the terror I could feel coursing through my veins. I tripped over a something in the road and I let out another piercing scream. Not from shock, but from pain and sickness. I was looking down at my bone protruding from what used to be my ankle. I tried to get back up, but the pain was so excruciating that I almost passed out. I pulled myself, somehow someway, over to some bushes. I tried to continue moving, but I couldn't. My body went slack, but not before I heard, "Yo boss, I found her."
I jerk awake and Jake is sitting right next to me. The tears seem to slip from eyes faster than I'm breathing. It seemed so real. So very real. I tell him everything that happens and he ensures me Sonya is on our side. In my emotional state, I choose to believe him and not evaluate the facts. We walk downstairs and I instantly stop breathing. Sonya has been shot dead and Mister is looking up at me laughing. "Did you really think that you could escape? I always win sweetie," he says to me. I pick up the knife and I was about to throw at him, but he shot Jake. Jake instantly falls and I scream out. They come to me, I'm too drained to fight. I am, however, kicking and screaming for him. They set me down and I look at Mister, "He better live Mister. Or I swear on Sonya's life I'll kill you. You will be in hell with her. She thought you loved her," I sneer at him venomously. He looks taken aback, "How did you know-" I don't hear the rest because I walk out of the building and slam the door. The men catch up to me and they sit me in the front. They aren't headed to the Organization, they're heading to a whole new place.
