The Dusk Rises

Chapter 46

CHAPTER FOURTY-SIX

We all got outside, and there was the strange device that I saw on the paper, it's big and round and there's sharp wood in it, stakes.

"Be careful, I need you." I said to Cris before hiding behind stuff so I wouldn't be seen.

"I will, I need you too." I could barely hear him say to me. I looked at him, he had sadness in his eyes. It surprised me, I would have thought he would have fear or anger or something like that, but nope, he had sadness.

"I love you." Cris said nocking me out of thought.

"I love you more." I said bringing tears to my eyes. "Don't die. Please."

"I won't, don't worry. I will always be here for you." Then he was to far we couldn't talk anymore.

They connect him to chains, so he can't run away. With our plan we won't need to run, if he does it at right timing and correctly. They start setting the machine.

They're about to shoot him and I can see him getting ready. He starts maneuvering his arms to be able to dodge the sakes that are going to shoot him through the heart and head.

They're shot and I can see Cris freeze with fear. Then I see him panicking and doing the plan faster then it should.

"Cris stick to the plan!" I yelled out, scared that he would go to fast and get shot. He looked at me and started going back to the plan.

He finally got to the part where he dodges and I could see that he was about freeze. 'Come on Cris you can do it.' I thought, staring at him scared out of my mind.

He dodged, phew. I saw Devone walking towards Cris, he had something in his hand. 'Be careful, Cris. What is that behind his back?' I thought.

I could see that Cris had curiosity on his face. Then he looked at Devone.

"I survived now let me out, you no longer have control over Jamie, Doug, me, and however else want to come with me!" Cris said.

Devone then pulled out a stake, that's what was behind his back. He went to go stab Cris but luckily he dodged, then Cris grabbed it and was about to stab Devone.

"Unlock me or else this goes in." I could barely hear Cris say.

"Go ahead." Devone said looking deadly at Cris. Cris put the stake closer to Devone.

"Last chance." Cris said in the same voice as Devone.

"Like I said before, go a..." Devone started, then Cris stabbed him. Then he broke the chains. Looked at the dead body then at me. He saw the fear in my eyes and ran over to me.

"Sweetie, it's okey. We are safe now, no longer worrying about the leader. I guess I'm the leader now." He said in his voice that made me calm down. I didn't work, I was still terrified.

"No, it's not okey. You just killed someone, even worse it was our leader. I mean he wasn't to great, but still." I said staring into his eyes, there was fear in his eyes too.

"I now Jamie, I didn't want to, but he almost killed me. So it's either me or him, I decided him." He said with regret in his voice.
