Morgan heard the tires screaching and retreated back, further into the building.
The gunshots began to resonate outside the building.
Morgan couldn't leave Aleks to go out and fight, but she couldn't let anyone get in the building.
"Make sure all entrances are covered, in this floor and in the upper one, if the floor upstairs is covered we move to higher ground" Morgan said.
The people inside the building were mostly woman, but that didn't mean they weren't trained the same or harder than the men. Everyone got on their feet and started to do something, Morgan watched as a group of them guarded the kids in a little corner and used their bodies to protect them.
Morgan's chest tightened when the thought of leaving Aleks alone came to her, but she didn't have a crown just because she was Eric's wife, Eric was out there fighting with the other dauntless and so would she.
She approached the woman and handed Aleks to one of her, giving her a determined look that didn't require any more words or commands from her.
She heard Aleks whine but she quickly stepped back and walked to secure the upstairs.
When she reached the next floor she made sure she could move everyone upstairs. When she walked to the windows to look outside she watched the trucks of the resistance, people hiding behind them and taking fire.
Morgan jogged downstairs and instructed the woman and children to head up.
She was walking away from the group and helping secure the last door, she was near the girl that was finishing with the barricade when she was blown backwards, blood spurring out of her chest.
She fell on her back, Morgan stumbled back, then a man came into the building with his gun raised. He hadn't seen her, and when he pointed to another girl to his side Morgan quickly charged and kneed him in the ribs, taking the gun, he didn't let go, Morgan kneed him again, but he didn't stutter. He threw the butt of the shotgun to her cheekbone, but Morgan didn't let go.
She heard her name being called, and in the split second she let her guard down, the man raised his gun to the side and shot.
She didn't get hit, but it was almost as if she was. Creed stumbled back into a wall and fell down, a spur of blood painted the wall behind him and a trailed down to where he now laid.
Morgan kicked again and in a fast move she moved the barrell of the shotgun to the man's face and shot.
The two proximity shots deafened her bad. When the guy fell after having his face blown off with a shotgun blast, she fell to her knees next to Creed.
The blast got him in the shoulder and a good portion of his neck, blood was spilling non stop. She pressed her hands to the wound and didn't know if she was talking or screaming, she was definitely crying, her chest was tight like no other time before.
She felt a hand take her by the shoulder and making her turn to whoever was grabbing her. Another dauntless was talking to her, she could faintly made out that they were okay to start transportation in the vehicles, dauntless' and the resistance's.
Morgan didn't left the grip she had on Creed's wounds, she helped get him into the truck and got a quick glimpse of Aleks as he was being taken in the truck with her. He was crying, but at that moment she allowed him to cry a little if that meant it was going to save Creed's life.
He had a faint pulse, Morgan could feel it when she pressed her hand hard enough on his neck. Her hands were covered in blood, she still couldn't hear herself, but she knew that the whole way down to Erudite she was whispering "please be okay, please be okay".
