Sweet Vendetta | Barry Allen [2]

Chapter 5

Lana

Once we arrived back in AliPhil I didn't even bother changing from the now ripped dress. I brought the 'stick' to the computer room and waited to see what was so important in it. Once they plugged it in and opened the screen everything seemed to be going well. Some numbers and pictures of people kept popping out until it simply wasn't. I looked down at the computer wondering what was happening. I continued to clean the dried up blood off of my hands. No matter how many questions I asked they never seemed to be answered, not truthfully that is.

The tech people worked harder and harder. Their hands moved fast on their keyboard trying to save any information they could. After they opened up one file it's as if the information was trying to protect itself. I looked at the monitor seeing that no matter how hard they tried the information was still being erased.

"So you're telling me I went through all of that for nothing" I say still looking at them

Just before all the information was lost I saw a picture of a person I thought to be dead. I turned to look at Liam and he must have known what I was going to say because he smiled. He began to walk closer as he smirked.

"What aren't you telling me?" I say standing ready for anything to happen

"I think you know what's been happening between us since you got here?" he says clearly trying to change the subject with a topic that annoyed me

He stood right in front of me wrapping his hands softly around my arms. I could feel his warm touch as he slowly began to lean down. I pushed him back, punching him and grabbing his gun from his holster and pointing it right at his neck while he grabbed my ring dagger and put it against my throat.

"Don't for a moment think you have some sort of effect on me" I say smirking back

"I know you feel it but don't worry I'm a patient man" he says "we're on the same side here Lana, I've done a lot to help you. I believe i have been shot at more times than i can count because of you"

He pulled my ring dagger away from my throat and handed it back to me.

"Same side?" I ask "then you don't mind telling me exactly what is going on" I say beginning to raise my voice

"What are you talking about?" He asks

"Just like you said. We're on the same side here. So tell me exactly what kind of information I risked myself for?" I say "we can't work together if we can't trust each other"

"Come here" he says pulling me with him

I looked around the room and saw everyone was looking at us. We walked out of the room and he pushed me against the wall where no one was around.

"In all honesty I don't know. I only pretend to know everything" he whispers shouts "they don't give me all of the answers to the same questions you ask"
