I'm in love with a criminal KHJ

Chapter 7

Before the crimes become harsher and out of control. Ace starts to think over everything and question if this is really what she wants to do or if she should surrender herself and escape the life she shouldn't have chosen after all this time. Decisions are starting to ponder in her mind to think of the options she has left before the truth is revealed.

Ace POV:

I never thought my life through at times. Sometimes I questioned if I would live to see the next day or if I would die young because of something happening to me. I never thought I would go from what I called the perfect life to the person I am now. I never told anybody this. I never told my friends ever what would be bothering me or if something was wrong. I always kept quiet on it. I wanted to send them a message or call them but I knew it would put me at risk and get us caught. I felt lost in my own world. The quiet world in my mind I only allowed myself to be in. That one voice in my mind telling me to escape before I could possibly get myself killed or in a place I didn't want to end up in. I should've thought my life through a lot more and not make stupid decisions or what I thought would be a good idea and end up as a bad idea or bad choice of action and behavior. I should've told my friends what was happening but I ended up choosing not to say a word and run away. I never showed the signs that I was doing something that could get me locked away for years or possibly the rest of my life. I didn't know what to do or how to escape this life anymore. I was part of their gang their crew. Days where I wish I could be able to go back to my old life and forget this ever happened. Not acknowledge the fact I was part of a criminal activity. I wanted to escape so much but I knew I couldn't escape that easily. I knew they would follow my every move and track my location. I shouldn't have left like that the day I ran away for good only to now realize how much trouble I had gotten myself into and I held more than what I could. I didn't know what I could do to possibly give my friends and inside notice of how my life has become. I wish I could go back to normal. Why me of all people to choose this life that I always knew was wrong. I went against everything I worked for and the people I looked up to and worked so hard for.  I had to escape and I had no choice but to go against them. I left the only friends I had behind to join a gang that I knew was dangerous and that they could kill me. Why would I choose this as my life after I had everything set up and perfect? I was too stupid and blind to see the red flags that were showing and now I'm stuck with the mistakes I chose. I couldn't do this anymore. I needed to free myself before everything goes insane. I knew what I had to do. My only options were to either surrender and get locked up without a fight or to let myself get caught and fight till I had nothing left in me. Where we were going. I knew one of us or all of us would die. We were going to one of the far off locations I would get sent to so they could collect information on very wanted and high-class criminals. I knew who would be where at all times. This was a place I could get myself caught in and killed. The battle I knew I would have no choice but to fight. The options of what I had rested in my own hands. I knew what they would say. Remind me of who I really am and if I wanted to do this at all. I'm just some naive kid that's still young and making the wrong decisions and choices. That final call I had to my friends. It wouldn't be my final call. The car had stopped miles from the location. I walked off from them and knew where I had to go. Once I was gone from the location I had gone to a place where I could call them without the others hearing. I ran to the building and looked around. I picked up the phone and dialed his number.

Mountain = San, Fairy = Ace

Mountain: "Hello"

Fairy: "It's me. I can't tell you where I'm at or what's happening. But be prepared for what you see on the news"

Mountain: "Where are you?! We've been worried sick about you. What do you mean by be prepared? What's happening? What are you doing?"

Fairy: "I can't tell you. Or they'll have my head for it.  I'm so sorry. I should've listened to you guys and told you what was happening. It's too late for me to say what's happening and what I've done. I don't have much time. I have to be quick with this call. When you hear and see my name and face. It won't be like it used to be. I fucked up big time but I can't run away from my mistakes and problems. I'm started to be trapped in dead-ends. They're starting to catch up with me. I'm sorry."

Mountain: "Where are you? I'm coming to get you."

Fairy: "I can't tell you my location at all.  I'm so sorry. Be ready for the reveal of the truth. Keep track of Pirate King for me. Tell the others to get ready for what's gonna be revealed on the news in a couple hours. I love you guys. I'm sorry but I have to go now. I took off without letting them know. I have to go back into hiding. Goodbye. I'll see you in a few hours."

Mountain: "We'll keep track of them. Please be safe. Escape while you have the chance. Don't surrender yourself to them so easily. Please tell me what you did."

Fairy: "I can't tell you. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Goodbye Sannie. I'll see you another time."

Ace: I hung up the phone and knew the call ended. I looked around and saw the time. It would only be a couple of hours until we raided the place. I ran out of the building and back to where they were at. I knew I had to lie to them about where I had gone off to and if I had talked to anybody. I never wanted this to happen. I was only realizing now after hearing them talk about what they wanted to do to the people who had gotten him locked up taken care of. They knew I was part of helping by getting him locked up before he escaped. I was in deep waters I couldn't get through or out of. This was the worst day of my life. When I got back to where they were they hadn't noticed that I slipped away for a bit. They were all talking about the plans or ideas they had for how they wanted to raid the place to attack them. I sat in the car and closed my eyes putting my head down. I needed to hear myself think and process what was about to happen. This wasn't easy on me at all. I wish I didn't come back but then again I have no way to ever escape from them. They could easily track me down for wherever I would be or gone to. My life was now a nightmare I wasn't able to wake up from. I was stuck in this nightmare that just kept getting worse each time instead of being able to wake up and be free from it.
