Another story of The War
Chapter 15 Krista's POV
"Why are we getting away from the club? My boyfriend will be worried if I just disappeared." I asked, a little edgy that I had just been pulled into a car with someone I didn't know.
"Sorry but I had to loose a couple people if they saw you with me they'd kill you on the spot do you understand?" The guy said. "I'm Jayden's brother, Jon."
"Jon....but I thought you ran away from your family. Jayden was kinda of hurt you did that."
"I did run away but for the right reasons. If I stayed any longer my family would be killed and Jayden would have been gone a lot earlier than now. I'm an undercover cop and so was Jayden."
"What?" I asked, quietly, quite shocked.
"He was murdered by the same gang he joined and I'm in the same one."
"But why? Why would stay with your brother's murders? What the hell are you thinking!?!" I shrieked. "How can you stand being around them?!?!" Tears were now on the verge of falling. I didn't cry at Jayden's funeral, I didn't cry myself to sleep when I realized he was gone. The only time I did was when I first met Blue and now was the second time. His foot slammed on the brake, I jolted forward in my seat. We were now in an abandoned parking lot.
"Because it's what he would have wanted." He said quietly. "He knew where I was the entire time. After I graduated I signed up for the police academy. I got into the selected few of going under cover into the local gang. Jayden, though, he wanted to join but he didn't get backup, he didn't get the police force on his side. So while you were dating him, he got caught up in the gang without your knowing."
"...Why wouldn't he tell me? Did he not trust me?"
"He didn't want you to get hurt but now two years after his death they realized that he had given away information to someone. Information that could bring down the entire organization. They have the resources to track down who hung out with him and now their after you."
Tristan's POV
All I could do was stare at the space where Krista had been kidnapped. Damn it all! Why does something always have to happen when I try to get close to her? This isn't happening.
"Dude, what do we do now?" Drake asked, trying to get me out of my daze.
"I.....don't know. She could be anywhere in town by now."
"Hey Drake! What's up?" I heard Blue from behind us. Oh wonderful pretty boy decides to show up now!
"Uh....just hanging....right Tristan?" He elbowed me in the side.
"Hell no....Blue your girlfriend's been kidnapped."
"What?"
"Yeah I said it. She just got dragged out of the club with some guy looked a lot like....wait a fuckin' second....Oh my god that was Jayden's brother."
"And that would mean?" Blue asked impatiently.
"He's going to kill her."
Krista's POV
"I was assigned to kill you but you know I won't do that, right?" He asked.
"No how can I trust you?" I asked.
"Good question. Never trust me. Just follow your gut." He answered simply.
"Then how the hell does that help me?"
"It doesn't but you're gonna have to trust me now. So apparently you were given some sort of necklace from Jayden right?"
"No but he gave me a picture of us and a bracelet."
"Can I see it?" He asked, eagerly.
"Uh sure." I showed him the bracelet. I always wore it. It was silver with a simple golden key. I don't know why he'd give me some strange little trinket. He knew I didn't like jewelry. He gently turned my wrist over until he found the key.
"I knew it. We're going to your house."
"Why?"
"Because that portrait of you guys has the thing everyone is looking for." He pulled out of the parking lot and made a sharp turn, going straight down the road that lead outside of town and near the neighborhood where I live.
"How did you know where I live?" I asked, scared.
"That's why this gang is so hard to bring down. It has so many sources of information that could help them protect themselves. They know everything about you."
"Wouldn't Jayden realize that he brought me into danger?"
"He thought you would have found the secret compartment in the photo frame already."
"You know about the photo? How-"
"I'll tell you the truth if you don't freak out ok?" He stepped harder on the gas pedal and car lurched forward, his hands gripping the steering wheel tighter as he made a complete u-turn out of the parking lot.
"...Okay."
"I broke into your house."
"What kind of person are you?"
"I'm Jayden's brother." He gave me a cocky grin. I rolled my eyes. Typical.
Within moments we pulled into my driveway and found another car parked there. Two guys stood in our way.
"Oh no." He muttered. "Stay here." He silently got out of the car. I saw the spiky haired one holding a gun and I gulped. It seemed like Jon was trying to reassure them but it wasn't working. The other guy with black hair pointed to me. Jon talked to him a little bit more and he smirked. I backed into the car seat, hoping I would just disappear. That look in his eyes didn't reassure me that I was going to walk away for free.
Blue's POV
"Where the hell would they go if they needed to get rid of someone?" I asked.
"I haven't the slightest idea, but it doesn't make sense. Why two years after Jayden's death would they decide to hunt her down now? And why? She doesn't know anything about Jayden being in there." Tristan said on the other side of the phone. We had split up so we could cover more ground. That just made me hate myself more. Why hadn't I kept a closer eye on her in the club? I mean getting shot already should have tipped me off that she was in danger. I heard my phone beep, there was another caller.
"Tristan I have someone on the other line. I'll call you back." I pressed the button and the line connected.
"Hello?"
"Blue?"
"Krista where are you?"
"At my house. I-"
"Thank god your ok. Listen I'm coming to get you."
"No don't! The gang members are here but Jon is with me, Jayden's brother."
"Krista he's out to kill you!"
"No you don't understand he's protecting me! He's trying-"
"Krista!"
"Hello your girlfriend is unavailable would you like me to take a message?" I heard a guy say and laughter coming from the other end of the phone.
"Go to hell!"
"Hey your boyfriend says he wants you to go to hell!"
"I swear to God if you hurt her you bastard I will make you pay."
"Yeah right, I'm not going to hurt her necessarily.....maybe mess with her a little, ruff her up if you know what I'm saying."
"Bu Bye now! I'm thinking Jon might want some action too."
"Cheq! Stop it! Your supposed to follow my orders!" I heard someone shout.
"Yeah well I'm following the boss's orders!" I heard Cheq shout back. The line went dead. I turned the car around heading in the direction of Krista's neighborhood. Those certain words echoing in my head, "You'll protect me, right?"
Oh no! Cliffhanger! Oh shiz! Deal U can wait till tomorrow!!!!!
