SCARLETT

A scream rips through the air, gasping awake I look around my room trying to understand what is happening.

Shouts and yelling of men echoing around the quiet house. I soon realize it's my brothers.

Fuck. As much as I don't want to like them. I am still quite curious and worried..

Twisting the door knob trying to exit the room, it's locked. Cursing under my breath. Rolling my eyes I wander towards the bathroom, snatching up a Bobby pin.

Walking back to the door, I pick the lock quickly. Being starved and neglected has its perks. The door finally unlocks, tossing the pin onto the table next to me.

Wandering into the hallway with panic flowing into my body as I look down each sides of the hallway and it is dead quiet.

Another shout of incoherent words slice through the air. Speed walking towards the voice, looking around to see anything out of place.

Just to see that most of the guards in the house that are normally stationed are not here. Coming towards the house stairs I come around the corner to see a sight that makes a gasp lodge in my throat.

Sebastian is holding a bloody Alexander, Sebastian is yelling orders at the unfamiliar men beside him. "—fucking find someone! Anyone!" I only hear a small part of the last shout he made.

"Oh my god!" I say that with horror falling over me. Sebastian shifts his head towards me, Alex does the same and I can see his pale face twisted with pain.

My heart tugs when I make eye contact with his, an unfamiliar feeling that makes me question more.

"Scarlett go away! You are no help." Sebastian shouts at me. I am too focused on the blood oozing out of Alex to even flinch or throw a glare at him.

Ignoring him, "what do you need me to do? Call the police? Anything!" I frantically ask. I'm used to seeing others bleeding in front of me. But not one of my... brothers.

He opens his mouth to answer me back before he is interrupted by Alex. "For the love of god, I will fucking die before y-you two stop chatting." He slurs out as he slips in and out of unconsciousness.

Running towards Alex I grab his other arm that is falling limp by his side. "Where?" I ask. "To the infirmary." Sebastian tells me as we both pull a limping Alex.

As we are walking I can feel Alex become heavy as he falls into unconsciousness. But his hand is still grasping the collar of my shirt from where his hand was placed.

After a long while we finally come across a large white door. Seeing that Sebastian is still holding Alex up and holding pressure onto his wound, I open the door for all of us.

The lights automatically turn on and the bright fluorescent lights glare as we walk further into the room.

The room is lined with hospital beds and shelves of medical supplies. Dark blue curtains separate the beds from each other. And each makeshift hospital room has a heart monitor, and all of the necessary equipment needed.

Venturing towards one of the beds we lay Alex down into it. His body sprawled out onto the mattress. Now that we are in better lighting I can fully see this blood drenching Alex's shirt and pants as well as Sebastian shirt turning the dark grey into a full blown inky black.
