"Stay here!" James said as he ran towards the doors of the house again.

The noise of the party seemed to have gotten louder, the beat of the music thumping in my head.

"Sit here, I'm going to help!" I order Helena as I help her sit on one of the chairs.

"Are you crazy! You can't go there alone, fuck alone! You can't go there at all, you heard James!" she said as she sat down.

Ignoring her I ran in the same direction as James. I could feel the adrenaline pumping the chambers of my heart.

I ran up the staircase and I realised that the two guys who stand at Tyler's office door were on the floor out cold, I ran up to them to check for a pulse and when I found one I was relieved.

I stood near the door and pressed my ear against it but everything was muffled up.

So I looked back down at the two men on the floor and then a plan started to click in my mind.

I reached down and found a gun in the back pocket of one of the men, I took it and examined it carefully.

In the day or two that I spent here I learnt how to use a little bit of the gun so I took off the safety and I crept towards the door.

As quietly as possible I opened the door and clearly the only person who noticed was Dean, who was currently standing with a gun pointed upwards towards another man whose back was facing me but he seemed familiar, I saw Dean's eyes light up I pulled my finger up telling him to be quiet.

I looked to the floor only to see Juan out cold with blood oozing out of his mouth and a little to his left was Tyler his eyes were fluttering but he was covered with blood all over his white shirt, which was now blood stained. I looked around for James but he wasn't in sight.

"Now what huh?" Dean asked the guy infront of me venomously.

"Ohh well? Let's see I make sure the only two people who could possibly take over the family and viola we win" Alex spoke up.

You heard me! Alex was the guy infront of me, he was the man helping out Juan to overthrow La Oscuridado.

"I'd think twice if I were you, now" he said stressing on the word now as he looked towards me.

In response I brought the gun in my hands higher so that it was pointing straight at Alex's head even though he didn't know that.
"How about this Johnson! You put the gun down cause both you and I know that you have no more bullets left" Alex snickers.

"That's good cause neither do you" Dean said in response.

"Everyone knows I was better with the knife anyways" he scoffed and as he was going to pull out a knife from his pocket I stopped him.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you" I said effortlessly.

"Well, well, well isn't this a pleasant surprise" Alex smirked.

"It will be even more pleasant once I have a bullet in your head" I spat.

"Calm down April, how about this I'll offer you a deal?" he started.
