-The Law-

The Gun

Isadora
"You've lying about who you are, you're not the hero, you're the goddamn villain" I seethe as he roughly drags me up the stars as I try to loosen his hold on me

"You-you manipulated me into this, ruined my entire life and had me fooled since day one" he pushes the door open before throwing me into the bedroom I woke up in

"You made me believe he was a monster while you were the true one!" I lunge at him standing my ground before the back of his hand meets my face in a flash. My body falls limp to the ground as I take in what he just did.

"You watch how you speak to me or it'll be you tied up next, now sit down and be quiet until I return" I don't wait but follow after him but before I could reach, the door slams shut sealing me in the room.

How did I end up in this condition again, some luck I have.

I look at the food that had been brought 3 hours ago, the grilled chicken now looking dry and sad being left out. This place is impossible to escape from, there is no balcony and from what I can tell a really long way down to jump if the window wasn't sealed permanently.

A click from the door makes me spin my head back to it, watching as it opens only to reveal another set of food being brought in. This might be my only chance to leave so I might as well take it.

"The boss insists you eat something" the guard says in a monotonous manner causing me to scowl

"Tell Eamon to go to hell" I wait for him to leave before grabbing the plastic cutleries in both trays, walking over to the door to pick the lock. If there is one thing my uncle taught me, it includes picking a lock, for what supposed reason? I have no clue but it sure is paying now.

Before I know it the door clicks and excitement fills me as I pull the handle. I open it slightly to notice any guard standing around but none in sight which makes me rush out, ensuring I close the door behind me.

Heading towards the lower level Dante is held at, a guard comes out of nowhere which makes me fall into a hiding place. I watch as he runs up the stairs but I don't wait nothing else, on queue I run over to the metal door from earlier, pulling it until I can fit through before punching in a set of numbers I remember Eamon putting earlier.

Dante's gaze meets mine once more as I rush over to him, trying to untie the various knots behind him.

"They've noticed you were gone it's only a matter of time before they arrive, you should leave" he explains trying to wiggle out the ropes.

"This place is a fortress—" before I could even finish my sentence a guard runs in causing me to rush my actions so I could at least let his legs free. The ropes fall and Dante immediately uses his legs to kick the guards kneecaps causing him to fall in pain as I continue to untie his hands.

"Faster Isadora" his voice raises as he notices more guards swarming in

"I'm trying" I breathe out before a guard yanks my arm while the other one collapses from Dante's kick once more. More guards seem to appear as I struggle to break free of his hold. Impulsively, I ram my knee to his balls which makes him slap me down to the ground.

"You bitch!" He exclaims while I crawl over to Dante once more continuing my previous actions. Three more guards enter the room and panic starts to rise in my chest.
