Harry's POV

The worst part was looking into her eyes and seeing only pain. The second worst part was using a gun to knock her out. Even though I knew it was better for her, it still pained me to watch her slip into unconsciousness.

I lifted her into my arms. She wasn't light, but she had a muscular build, so I wasn't surprised with her weight. I looked into the hallway, and sure enough my bomb distraction had worked. All I had to do was rewire the control panel in the control room. it seemed Matthew had trusted me too easily.

I started running down the hallway, until I reached a dead end. There was a door, with a sign reading; ROOFTOP. Deciding it was our best chance, I opened the door with one hand, balancing Amber as well. I rested her comfortably over my shoulder, making it easier for me to take the stairs.

I grew tired as I continued the climb, my legs aching from the strain. I made it to the top, kicking open the door and emerging into the light. I had no idea what time of day it was, but the sun was glaring down on me. I placed Amber gently down, leaning her against one of the enormous chimneys that continued up.

As I studied her bruised face, her body erupted in a fit of painful spasms. Her expression contorted painfully and I knew then, that just because she was unconscious doesn't mean the pain has stopped.

"Shh, Shh." I cradled her twitching body to mine and stroked her cheek gently, "It's okay Amber, everything will be fine, Shh."

With her condition no better, I lent down and placed my lips softly upon hers. It was just a quick kiss, but I could feel her body calm down only slightly.

I froze when I heard the door to the roof slam shut. I let go of Amber and turned to the sound. Sure enough, there were two men standing with a pistol each. And before I even knew what I was doing, I started to sprint towards them. This took them by surprise and one of them raised his gun at me. I dove at him before he had the chance to shoot, tackling him to the ground.

"Lucas NOW." The man I had just tackled yelled, and immediately, the other man started in a sprint towards Amber.

"NO." I yelled and jumped up to run after him when the man on the ground grabbed my ankle and dragged me back to the ground.

He delivers a solid punch to the jaw and I groan in pain. I bring my foot up to his groin, which causes him to roll off me. I stand, but so does he. I throw a punch to his throat, but he deflects it, kicking my chest harshly, winding me temporarily. I lash back with an uppercut and a powerful kick to the stomach, and he rolls backwards back onto the floor.

He pulls his gun out frantically and aims at me, but hesitates, giving me the opportunity to kick it out of his hands. I use the base of the gun to knock him out. Once he is out, I turn to see the guy, 'Lucas', carrying Amber in the direction of the door.

Not wasting anytime, I aim the gun at his head and shoot, the bullet rupturing his skull and sending him to the ground. I run quickly over to see if anything worse had happened to Amber. She had blood on her, but it was the from who I had just shot. I avoid my gaze from the man's head as I rummage through his jacket and pockets.

I grin when I find what I need. A phone. Luckily this guy was dumb enough to not have a password. I feel a pang of guilt when I see his wallpaper of him and his supposed kids. He had a family and a wife. I shake away the guilty thoughts and enter a number on the key pad.

"Kevin, head of CIA speaking, please state your name and business." I hear my boss's familiar voice and sigh inwardly, preparing for the outburst.

"It's Harry." I reply and I hear a pause on the other side.

"I'm going to be as calm as I possibly can Agent Styles. Where the FUCK are you and what the FUCK IS HAPPENING." He yells, and I wince at his loudness

"I will explain it all to you later, but Amber is in need of medical help and so much shit is happening." I tell him quickly and he sighs angrily

"What do you need." He asks

"I need you to send a helicopter to us." I tell him, and explain my surroundings

He groans, "I know exactly where you are. Make sure you are on the roof and in clear sight otherwise the helicopter will not land."

"Yeah already there." I say

"Ok hold on, someone should be there in around half an hour." He speaks firmly and before I can respond, he hangs up.

I then open the back of the phone, removing the battery and taking the phone apart. We can't risk someone finding it and tracing Kevin's number. I then crushed the sim card and shattered the screen before scattering it on the ground. I sit down next to Amber, one arm around her shoulder, squeezing it lightly every time she twitched.

Just like Kevin said, I soon heard the roar of a helicopter approaching. I stood up, holding Amber in my arms, and walked onto the most visible part of the roof. The helicopter spotted me, and started it's descent. I stepped back, allowing room for it to land. With air rushing towards me at high speeds, it wasn't easy to walk towards the open door.

I unloaded Amber onto the helicopter, when I heard shouts and gunfires from behind me. Guards were surging through the roof entry, their guns trained on us.

"Get in Agent Styles!" I heard the operator yell, and I obeyed, jumping into the doors, narrowly missing a few bullets.

They pulled the doors shut quickly and as we continued our ascent I could hear the bullets hitting the outside of the helicopter. Luckily the whole exterior was bullet proof.

"We'll be there in around half an hour so get comfy." The pilot told us and I nodded, sitting down next to Amber's unconscious body. I moved her head so it was resting against me, and put my arm around her. These small actions made me feel confident that things were going to be alright. Even if we were in big trouble.

Because I knew that as long as Amber was safe, I would be content.
