Chapter 23 - Run

Chapter 23 - Run


----------------------------------------------

I knew seeing her again would feel weird but it felt good I didn't realize how much I really missed her and she looked ... Clean.

"Mom , Elena , are you guys okay?"

They all looked scared except Elliot's uncle.


"Aria no time for a reunion we have plans to make , my wedding plans." jasmine said looking smug 


"Jasmine not today." I don't know what my face was like but my voice and eyes were equally as hard so that shut her up.


I tried to meet Elliot's eyes but he wouldn't look at me , I knew he was mad but he'd have to get over it.


I was leaving here today and everyone was going with me. I'm sick and tired of people taking advantage of me and making me live my life for them.


"Aria I'm glad you came."

Ignore the idiot in the suit.


"Casper I'll talk to you, what is it that you're doing here really?"


"I'm sure you heard me talk to you"


Ignore the suit.


"Casper what is it that you want with me? what are you going to do with them? you're just making a mess"


"You little bitch I'm talking to you!"

"Did it eve occur to you that I was ignoring you" i gave him a look out of pity

"Grab her and gag her I'm tired of hearing her talk" i raised my eyebrows at this , there was no way i will be getting tied up again

Perfect.


I pulled out my gun and they all stepped back. oh now Elliot wants to look up.


"All of you step back , I'm tired of people telling me what to do and making decisions for me! I'm not going anywhere with you , I want you to let them all go and let us go , we were fine before you had to interrupt us."


"Aria calm down , just put the gun down we can talk" Luke looked at me with pleading eyes


"No ! talk my ass , hell no what are we going to talk about Luke how many birthdays you missed , how my life was shit and your here in a thousand dollar suit , just shut up"


"Elliot talk to her she might shoot." Luke looked at him begging for him to help

"I don't mind." Elliot looked smug and leaned back on the nearby wall


"I know someone who might." John spoke 



----------------------------------------------

Elliot's P.O.V


I couldn't believe he would go this far. I knew he would try to use her against me 

"Long time little brother"


"You're clean ?"


"Define clean"


Nope same old lissa.




Ten years ago

"Lissa come on I wanna go play!"


"Fine lets go to the park"

"Finally"


"Elliot this man is going to give me something at the park just pretend like you don't see him."


"What did he give you what's in the bag?"

"Nothing Elliot"


"Lemme see"


"Elliot give me back the bag !"

"What's this white stuff?"

"Nothing. its girl stuff."


Five years ago



"Daddy stop it !"

"Move !"


"Elliot help ! help !"

What could I do ? he was always hitting them and they always asked me for help but I never could help them.



Four  years ago



"Jonathan get off me !"

"Dad stop you're going to kill her"

I walked and heard them crying so much  saw my mom on the floor covered in her own blood and my dad onto of lissa and that's when I decided that would be it. I never shot a gun before but I watched enough movies to know how to work one.


"Get off her."


I heard my mothers scream when I fired the shot and I saw when he went down. That's when I knew things were different. That nothing would be the same.

----------------------------------------------

I couldn't put other peoples lives in risk because of me. not again.

"Casper , Nicholas , let them go. I'll do anything you want marry jasmine work for you guys anything just let them go unharmed."

"Where's the fun in that Elliot my boy."



----------------------------------------------


Arias P.O.V


"I'm not going anywhere without you Elliot."


Like hell he's going to ignore me.


I marched over I him and grabbed his shirt.


"Look at me , I cannot leave you , I won't I love you please don't go.

"Young love isn't it something."

I swear when I get out of here I'm going to have John killed.


"Lissa grab her"

Before I could stop it she had me by the neck but i kneed her and put  my gun to her head.



"So little brother this is what you left for what to you want to go back so that  you can go back to playing house? this is what you left me for? this bitch"


"I gave you a choice you chose drugs and prostitution over me."


"You were supposed to stay with me!"

"I couldn't stay here in this life , I didn't want this."

I watched as Elliot pulled a gun from his waist and point it at his sisters head.

"So this is what it comes to , you shoot dad now me? you really do have a track record for shooting your family."


I couldn't let him do this. I dropped my gun


"Elliot no , it's okay , don't do this, she's your sister."

"She stopped being my sister the moment she chose drugs over me."



I couldn't let him shoot his sister, the moment he did he would go to a place so dark even I couldn't bring him back.


I took a step back , jabbed her in the stomach with my elbow grabbed my gun and pointed it in her direction. it's time I ended this so I shot the gun in the direction of the door signaling Pierre to come in.

I passed Elliot a set of keys


"Listen to me when I say run we are going to run and you're going to drive as far away from here as possible , but I need you to shoot all the bodyguards just enough to injure them."

Chaos had broken loose Pierre and all the men where pulling my mom and Elena , her mom and my uncle out of the building.

Here I was setting up the fire wall.

"Elliot run!"

Unless Casper , Nicholas and there men could walk through fire it would take some time to get through and the back entrance was going to be hard to break through after Pierre and the others had it locked.

By time we got outside they were already half way down the road.


"Where is my van?"

"Pierre's driving it."

"So who's driving Pierre's car?

"Umm Michael I think."


"He called them ?!?"

"Yea didn't you see the inside? you can rant on later but right now we need to go"

"You shouldn't have done that aria, they'll be coming for us."

"And I'll be with you when they do come , were in this together no matter what."

"It's a good thing you said that because there behind us."


I looked behind us and two SUVs were gaining on us. Elliot was speeding and swerving in and out of lanes and I thought we were going to lose them


until another SUV came out if nowhere and hit into the side of the van , my side. the van sped out of control and turned over I felt the blood dripping from my head and looked over at Elliot.


"Aria I need you to play dead , no matter what happens you're dead until they leave"

I watched as Elliot climbed through the window coughing , I couldn't hear what they were saying but I heard the shot and saw when Elliot went down. our eyes interlocked before he closed his and the smell of the leaking gas in the car had me pass out.



----------------------------------------------

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

I slowly opened my eyes only to see white. I wondered if this was what heaven looked like until I saw Pierre standing over me.


"Ari darling"


"Pierre" I croaked , my throat felt like a sack of needles was lodged in there.

"W..water"

He passed me a glass of water and my throat felt better.

"Where's Elliot?"

He looked away , refusing to meet my eyes. it wasn't until then I noticed everyone was in the room with me . my mom , Elena , her mom , Elliot's uncle , his crew. except Elliot


"Where is he."

I started pulling the tubes out of me.

"Aria stop it!" Elena grabbed my hands in an attempt to make me stop


"I have to go and find him Elena!"

It was then a doctor came in and said


"I have to sedate her , she can't handle the news yet"

"What news ? answer me!"

the doctor injected me and i started to fight the sedation 
I couldn't continue my eyes began to feel heavy and I feel into a restless slumber.
