Chapter 17: Allison's Daughter

Notes: The cat is out of the bag and Allison must find a way to make up for lost time with her daughter. Happy Reading!
"What are you doing here?" The woman asked Allison.
"I came to see my daughter." Alison replied.
"Really? Where were all those other times? She needed you and lied my ass off for you.
"And I'm obliged by that, but I'm here now and I want to see her."
"We had a deal." The woman blurted out.
"Yeah, well the deals off." Alison said and went for the doorknob, but let go when she felt two barrels poking her in the back.
"You wouldn't shoot me in front of Prim, would you?" Allison asked. She would try to call the woman's buff and rush her to try and disarm her, but she was carrying a double barrel. One false move and the woman opens up both barrels on her.
"No. I won't shoot." The woman removed the shotgun from Allison's back and Allison let out a sigh of relief when she felt the shotgun leaving her back.
"I love Primrose like she was my own daughter, but I would never take her mother from her." The woman added.
"Then let me see her. I won't say anything I swear." Allison pleaded. The woman sighed in defeat and open the door.
"Primrose, there's someone out here to see you." The woman stated. Prim came outside to see who her mother was talking about and saw a beautiful woman standing on the porch.
"Prim, this is Allison. She knew your mother." The woman said.
Judy Miller is Prim's grandmother, and raised Prim her whole life. She never knew her real mother, she only knew what Judy told her.
"Hey Prim." Allison says.
"Hey." Prim replied. "Did you really know my mom?" She added.
"I did. We were best friends."
"What happen?"
"We went our sperate ways."
"Oh." Prim said. Allison looks down at the ground then back up and sees Prim holding a stuff teddy bear.
"Who's your friend?" Allison asked.
"This is Buddy my teddy bear." Prim replied.
"Can I see him?" Allison asked. Prim looks hesitant because buddy is the only thing from her mother that she has.
"I promise I'll be real careful with him." Allison says with her fingers crossed.
"Ok." Prim stated and hands the bear over to Allison. She looks at it and remembers back to when she bought the bear for Prim. A tear threats to slip, but Allison wipes at her face with her other hand before Prim can see it.
"He's cute. In his little cap and jacket." Allison points out before giving the bear back to Prim.
"Thank you." Prim tells Allison.
"You're welcome." Allison replied.
"Can you tell me more about my mom?"
"I would love to." Allison said, but pauses when she senses something's amiss.
"Judy get Prim into the house! Now!" Allison commanded. Without replying, Judy picks up Prim and carries her in her arms as she runs towards the house. Allison jogs over to a tree and climbs up and retrieves a bow and a quiver of arrows then climbs back down.
Three armed men with assault rifles walk towards the house as Allison loads an arrow onto the bow pulls the string back and fires hit the first guy. The man falls backwards on his back as blood drip drop from the shot to the chest. The other two men return fire and Allison has to do a tuck and roll to dodge the bullets, but one hits her in the leg before she turns around and fires an arrow hitting the second shooter in the gut. The blow was so powerful that it knock the man on his butt. But there was one more shooter and Allison didn't have time to reload before being shot down by the gunman. But someone was behind him and she didn't waste anytime as she shot him in the back with a crossbow. The man fell revealing who just saved her.
"Huntress. I should have known." Allison says coldly.
"You should have." Huntress said as fires a tranquilizer arrow into Allison's arm. It wasn't long before she was on the ground unconscious as Judy ran out and receive the same fate. Prim was the last to run out, but Huntress had other plans for her.
