They Don't Know About Us {punk n.h}

31. You Only Live Twice

I'm so sorry for the late updates every time, I've been very busy lately and school is taking up a lot of time. I hate to let you guys wait but it is what it is.

But on the bright side: who said that Amy and Niall died ;)

"C'mon Amy, we have to hurry!" Niall nagged as he put his suitcases into the trunk of the car that Jamie had arranged for them. "I know, I know" Amy said, also putting her suitcases into the car. Niall slammed the door closed and walked around the car to open the door to the passenger's seat so Amy could climb in. After that he ran to the door of the driver's seat and entered his car. "Why are you in such a hurry?" Amy asked as Niall put on his seat belt. "If we stay here any longer, people will recognize us and then we'll surely die. We've had so much luck, we won't always have that, we won't always have a plan, we won't always survive" Niall explained. Amy nodded as the words he spoke were true, if they wouldn't leave now they'd be in bigger trouble than ever before. And they've been through a whole lot.

Amy put on her seat belt and Niall started the engine, hit the gas pedal and the car started driving. Niall smiled as they came onto a highway. "What are you smiling at?" Amy asked as a smile also crept onto her face just by seeing Niall so happy. "We're on our way" Niall said, his smile growing even bigger. "To a new life" Amy added, kissing Niall on his cheek.

Amy checked her watch, it was 8am and the sun wasn't up yet as it was winter time. Amy looked at the houses and buildings that were still dark passing by through the window on her side. She slowly fell asleep and dreamt of what happend the night before...

"We know we're going to die, so at least let us die in each other's arms" Niall said with tears in his eyes. Amy and Niall looked at each other both with a tearstained face, but it seemed like Niall forced those tears into his eyes. "Listen carefully Am" Niall whispered in Amy's ear as she dropped herself into his arms. Amy slightly nodded and Niall continued. "This is very important. When the time is right, I'm going to count to three. When I'm at three you drop yourself to the ground, make sure you fall on your front, not your back. Then don't move and hold your breath as long as you can" Niall instructed, still whispering so only Amy could hear him. Amy nodded again, she wanted to know why she had to do this, but she had to trust Niall that it was for her own safety.

Niall turned his head to look at Ethan, who was aiming his gun at them and still evilly smiling. Amy had her eyes squeezed closed, but Niall was keeping a close eye on Ethan. Amy opened her eyes again and looked at the area around her, thinking about how she and Niall would die there together. When she looked at Ethan's car, which was parked just a few metres away from them, she noticed the silhouette of a girl sitting in the seat passenger's seat. She narrowed her eyes to take a better look at the person, who had now turned her head towards Amy. Amy and the unknown girl had eye contact for a few seconds and then the girl turned her head away. She looked sad, but happy at the same time. Amy was so focused on the girl in the car that she forgot everything else that was going on.

She was snapped out of her thoughts as Niall spoke to her. "Are you ready?" he asked. Amy nodded, although she didn't really know what Niall was talking about. "One.." he said, reminding Amy about what he had told her like two minutes ago. "Two.." he continued, Amy could feel Niall's heart beating faster with every second that passed by. "Three.." at the same time that Niall spoke a loud bang erupted from the gun Ethan was holding and Amy fell to the ground, landing on her front like Niall had told her to. She held her breath in, which wasn't too difficult as she was too terrified to do anything. Soon after the first shot, a second one erupted. At that point Niall ducked and swiftly pulled a knife from his pocket. Before Ethan could even realize what was going on Niall had thrown it towards Ethan's leg. Within a split second the knife had made a deep cut in Ethan's leg and Ethan fell to the ground, shouting in pain as his bleeding leg was hurting unbearably. "You're just the same as Dan, both stupid and weak." Niall said smirking down on Ethan. He pulled the knife out of Ethan's leg and stabbed it in his chest. Niall only needed to stab Ethan once to kill him, but stabbed him two other times so he was sure Ethan was dead.
