Chapter 14: Robbery

Chapter fourteen:

Willow ran up to the roof and sat down in the corner. She then let the tears all out and she sobbed, hugging her legs and she buried her face on her legs. She didn't notice that Aaron had followed her up and was standing over her.

"Hey." Aaron said with his arms crossed. Willow jumped and looked up at him. "Are you ok?" Aaron asked almost sounding sincere.

"I'm fine Aaron, now will you please just go away?" Willow buried her face on her legs again but Aaron didn't leave. Instead he sat down right next to Willow and stared at her with a frown. Willow glared at Aaron.

"I want to be alone Aaron!" she snapped at him.

"I'm not leaving until you tell me what happened." Aaron smirked and crossed his arms. Willow looked angry but she knew he wouldn't budge until she told him. Willow sighed and wiped away the tears.

"I have trust issues with guys." Willow sighed and sniffled a little.

"Why?" Aaron asked confused.

"I wouldn't expect you to understand but I have been hurt before." Willow huffed sadly and then looked at Aaron, "I can't risk going through that again." Willow closed her eyes and leaned against the wall.

"You can't go through it again.... You mean with Ryan?" Aaron asked still a little confused.

"Yes, I don't want to relive the awful pain of heartbreak." Willow opened her eyes and watched some birds overhead.

"Pain is a part of life, you can't run from it because sooner or later you're going to feel it." Aaron stared at Willow and she stared back.

"So you're saying that I should just risk my heart being broken again?" Willow scowled and turned away from Aaron.

"What's life without a little risk?" Aaron smirked and got up. "Come on, we're late for training." Aaron held out his hand to Willow. Willow thought for a moment. Aaron was right. Just because she got her heart broken once, it didn't mean that she shouldn't be happy and live her life. Willow took Aaron's hand and smiled as he pulled her up off of the ground. They then ran to the training room.

After morning training Willow ran up to Katie.

"Hey I'm sorry for the way I acted. It's just a touchy subject." Willow apologized. Katie smiled and hugged Willow.

"Aw, it's ok. I shouldn't have pried." Katie responded. The General walked up to Katie and Willow with a big grin.

"I have a mission for you two." He said quietly so no one else could hear. Katie gasped in excitement.

"Really?" Katie asked trying to be quiet.

"Yep, there's a bank robbery in progress and you two are going to stop it." General Wallows handed them watches, "These watches will show you where to go." Willow looked at the watch and then back at General Wallows.

"What about Benny, Ryan and Aaron?" Willow questioned the General.

"I know that you two can get the job done without them. Now get going!" General Wallows opened the door that led to the outside. Katie grabbed Willow's arm and zoomed out the door.

"Whoo-hoo!" Katie cried in excitement as she sped away. Willow held on to Katie's arm for dear life. And before Willow could even think about what was happening they stopped right in front of a large bank.

Willow and Katie looked around, it was quiet, a little too quiet. Then a gun shot went off from inside the bank. Willow heard the sounds of screams and panic. This was most definitely the place.

"Alright, let's go!" Katie commanded and without another thought she zoomed into the bank.

"Wait! Katie!" Willow tried to stop her but Katie was gone. Willow sighed in frustration and turned invisible. She then slowly entered the bank as well.

As soon as Willow went in she could see a small group of people huddled in a corner and she saw that there were two tall men with tattoos up and down their arms. They both had guns and they were taking money out of the safe.

"Nobody move! Or I'll shoot!" One of them shouted and waved his gun around to scare the people.

"P-please just let us g-go." A woman with short blonde hair stuttered in a panic.

"Oh no, I'm not letting anyone out of here, not until I get my money!" The first gunman sneered and pointed his gun at her head. Willow looked around for Katie. She couldn't find Katie anywhere.

"Where is she?" Willow thought to herself.
