Running Alive

Chapter 2.10

Connor's POV:

We've been inside the cells for almost a week and damn I fuckin' hate it. For this past few days, we were talking about getting out. But, we can't since their security is so tight... Ghiel and Sandra, they're trying to knock the cell door down with Julia. She got sedated when she tried to stab James. Will problems ever stop? My mind flew back to what happened a few days ago when Ash and the other three lured us here...

================================

"Too late." James said as he pulled the syringe out of Julia's neck. We couldn't do anything again. She tried to stand up for a few seconds, but she passed out. "Aww, looks like you screwed up your plan." James said as he smiled like a Cheshire cat. "What the fuck did you do!?" Zayn gritted through his teeth. He's so angry that the veins on his neck are visible. "Don't worry. She's just sleeping." James said as he smirked. "She better be! Or I swear I'll end you." Zayn said as he calmed down for a bit.

Connor (not me of course) carried her bridal style as we got tied up and walked towards the cell on the fourth floor of the building.

"We almost had it." I heard Brad whisper to Luke as he bowed his head a bit while walking. "You did your best, man. Thanks for getting her out of there." Luke answered with a smile. I thought we'll get her out with no problem. Turns out that four fuckers turned us in. "I should've listened to you, Michael." Luke turned to Michael. "I don't blame you, dude. Even if we knew what they're planning, we can't judge people unless we see it. Now we saw what they did, then we're right." He explained. "Hey quit talking and keep walking!" Liam snapped and we continued walking until we got to the cells.

================================

Even though problems arise, I couldn't help but be happy sometimes. I met the people whom I never thought I'll be trusting my life with. (except the four others)
"You know you're attracting eaters so... Shut the fuck up." Alyssa said as her voice filled my blood with rage.

They tricked us, how can we be so foolish about this! I thought they were nice! We helped them! Then they just go and betray us? They even have the guts to act like nothing happened! That's straight fucked up in my book!

"Hmm... Alyssa?" Julia called her. Alyssa arched an eybrow at her. "Maybe you're the one who should shut the fuck up." I could hear the smirk on Julia's voice though I wasn't really looking at her.

I don't know if Julia started to regret what she said or something but the look on her face is different though. It looked like she was proud of what she said at the same time scared because of what she said. "Cut it or else..." Alyssa said but was interrupted by Ghiel with a smirk on her face, "Or else what?" Alyssa opened the cell and she stepped inside, "I'll make you shut up then." Zayn furrowed his eyebrows at Julia and said, "Just stop it!"

Before I could even blink, Julz had him leaning against the wall. Her face was inches away from his, "Don't try to stop me..." she said as she licked her lips, "... okay?" she said and let go of him. Zayn has a surprised look on his face and slid slowly on the ground. I'm surprised too. Everyone else in this room is. For a second, I thought she was joining the bad guys, which is a no no. We have seen again that side of the girl, which is a good thing because it wasn't Ghiel. Or else shit will hit the fan.

Julia walked closer to Alyssa and whispered in her ear, "I'd like to see you try." and she easily backed away. Wrong move, girl... As soon as she backed away from Alyssa, Alyssa turned to Ghiel and tackled her towards the wall and pulled out a gun at her, "Put that down!" I said though I'm scared. Sure she's outnumbered but her being dead here means more trouble and more people will get hurt. We have taken risks before, but not this one...
