10k's Girl [Love story] Fanfic

Chapter 4

"The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for." - Bob Marley

Nikolina groans, as she wakes up, and she's laying on the cold hard floor, and she squeezes her eyes shut before fluttering them open. Her eyes shift around in the dark room, and her eyes widen, and she jerks herself up in a sitting position.

The shackles pulling on her wrists. She looks down at the shackles around her wrists, and as she did, she felt thick droplets of her own blood trickle down the side of her head.

Nikolina looks over to see where 10k was, who was leaning against a wall. "10k?" She says, in a hushed tone.

She awaited for a response but didn't get one, and she sighs, before moving towards him. "10k? 10k?" and she studies his face. 10k had a bruise forming underneath his left eye and a cut at his left temple. She puts her hands on his face. "Please don't die on me."

10k groans slightly, coming around, and Nikolina puts her hands down to her sides, on the concrete floor. He opened up his eyes, and squinted when the light hit his eyes.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah..." he says, groaning in pain. "Where, where are we?"

Nikolina eyes looked around the room.

Four walls, concrete floors and walls, no windows, a door at the far end of the room with bars on the windows which is just seeping the light through it. "I don't know."

"Where's your friend?"

"He's not my friend, and do you mean Will?"

"Yeah..."

Nikolina sighs. "I have no idea."

After a few mists of silence, the door creaked open revealing a tall, tan young man. 

Not Will.

"Well, well, well. What do we got here?" the man asked. He had thick black hair, slicked back and greasy from probably the apocalypse and lack of a shower. He wore a white beater, and a dirty jeans and boots.

Nikolina and 10k looked up at him, either glaring or frightened, as the man walked in front of them. "We found you in our building," he says. "Will brought you both in." He explains their shackles, as he crouched down in front of them.

"Oh William Carter Turner I really am going to punch you so hard when I find you," Nikolina whispers to herself before talking to the man. "Who said it was your building?" Nikolina sneers, as she glared back at him.

The man smiled at her. "I did. My people and I took that building and cleared it out. So it is ours."

Nikolina scoffs. "First things first, what's your name?"

"Tyler, and you?"

"Not telling," Nikolina said. "And neither is he." as she looks and indicates 10k.

"Well, Will told me who you are. Other than that, I wonder what I should do," Tyler says, clapping his hands together. "After all, I don't like it when other people snoop around my land."

Nikolina laughs. "Your land? It's the goddamn apocalypse."

"We were just looking for supplies," 10k says, gesturing between Nikolina and him. "It's something that isn't easy to come by these days." and he gave the man a death glare.

Tyler chuckled. "Yeah, I figured that much." as he looked at 10k, and then he shifts his gaze to Nikolina. "You don't have any idea how long it's been since I've seen such a beautiful woman such as yourself."

Nikolina scoffs in disgust. "Yeah, well... keep dreaming." and she pulls her head back and pulls it forward as she collides her head with Tyler's forehead, causing him to fall backwards onto the ground.

There was a loud clap when the foreheads connected. Tyler fell backwards, while Nikolina shook her head, trying to get rid of the pain.

Tyler brought his hand up to his forehead and dubbed it slowly. He looked at Nikolina and his eyes filled with anger. "YOU BITCH!" he shouts, and he stands, and runs over to her.

10k gets up, and puts the chains of the shackles around the man's throat, strangling him.

Once Tyler was unconscious, a key fell out of the guys' pocket.

10k picked up the key and walks over to Nikolina and unlocks her shackles, and then once she was free; Nikolina rubs her wrists before doing the same to 10k, who also rubs his wrists afterwards.

"Come on," she mumbled, as she looks at him and taking the key with her, as they slowly walked over to the door, pushing lightly on it, which makes it squeaks.

Nikolina peeks her head out the door before fully stepping out to see if the coast was clear, before than ran down the hall, quietly.

Murmurs of people's voices made them half in their tracks. Nikolina and 10k quietly walked against the wall and she peeks slightly around the corner to see four men sitting in chairs carrying her and 10k's weapons in their hands.

Nikolina turns towards 10k and she whispers, "okay, there's only four of them. They're too caught up in our weapons to even notice us."

10k nods his head, and sees a metal pipe lying on the ground and he picks it up and Nikolina notices a leather belt.

She shrugs.

"At least we don't get to surprise them defenseless," 10k adds in.

Nikolina nods her head.

"On my count. One... two... three!" she whispers loudly for only her and 10k can hear.

They jump out of their hiding spots and attack them from behind.

Nikolina wraps the strap of the leather belt around the guy's neck and chokes him to death, as 10k hits the other guy in the back of the head with the pipe.

The last two men had more time to prepare, unfortunately stenographer takes a little longer than just knocking them out. They attacked them with their daggers.

Nikolina ducked as the blade enter flying towards her head. She punches him in the face and then kicks him in the gut, so he falls to the ground.

Nikolina walks over to him, and grabs the dagger which is by his hand. "I wouldn't move if I were you." and he cowers away. But instead of killing him, she kicks him in the head, knocking him out.

Nikolina looks over to 10k, who just punched the last man in the jaw, causing him to fall on the floor, unconscious.

"You alright?" He asked, looking over to her.

Nikolina nods her head in response and tossed him his dagger, who catches it with ease, and places it into his belt.

The two of them depressed their belongings carefully, quietly and quickly.

They placed them in their correct slots.

Except Nikolina kind of took her time, since she had to put in her metal shoulder armor plate on her left shoulder, and then covered that with the black shrug-like thing she has and ties it together with a black belt.

Nikolina looks up at 10k, who is watching her. "What? Less baggage to carry... and I need to look awesome, duh," she joked a bit.

10k gives her, her sword, and she places that behind her back.

"Ready?" 10k asked, as she walks over to him.

"As ready as I'll ever be."

Nikolina and 10k looked down both of the hallways. "Which way should we go?"

10k listened for any sounds. "They're both quiet." He started as he looks to Nikolina.

"Which way then?" she asks.

"Go right," 10k says.

"Okay."

The two walk down the hall together, hoping that the exit was down the hallway.
