Tainted ~Mitch Rapp

24

    "Move!" Mitch growled while shoving Petrovic. "I can't move, you bastard!" Petrovic said while slumping against the table. "Well you should've listened to us before." I snapped.

    Petrovic clenched his jaw and closed his eyes. I smirked. He was in pain. Good.

    "Now I need a laptop." I said. "First drawer." Petrovic said in pain. "Awe thank you for cooperating." I said sweetly.

    I walked over to the desk in the corner and pulled open the first drawer. A laptop was sitting inside. I took it out and placed it down on the desk. I opened it and turned it on.

    "Password." I stated. "Can't you just hack it?" Petrovic snapped. "I could but there's a bomb I need to disarm. Thanks to you." I snapped. "Just tell her the password before I blow your other knee out." Mitch threatened. "Natalia. Ivan." He said.

    I typed it in and got in. My heart clenched at the sight of the family picture as his wallpaper.

    "How could you do this to them?" I asked while turning my head to look at them. "My country deserves to make yours pay." Petrovic growled. "So you ruin your life? Your family's life for all of this?" I asked. "Yes." He snapped.

    My eyes widened. My heart clenched. That man truly was a monster. I immediately started typing away.

    "It was pretty smart using the computer to control the bomb." I said. "Should've stuck to the old fashioned way." Petrovic grumbled.

    I heard footsteps come up from behind me.

    "You got this." Mitch whispered encouragingly. "Yeah." I said while looking at the laptop screen.

    I've never had to hack into software to disarm a bomb. Only little hacking things. This was a whole different thing and it scared me shitless.

    The timer popped up and my heart dropped.

    The timer read ten minutes. I didn't even realize that time went by that fast. I guess when you're in a life threatening situation that happens.

    "Mitch." I muttered. "What? What's wrong?" He asked with concern. "I don't know if i could do this." I mumbled. "What do you mean?" Mitch asked worriedly.

    I heard Petrovic laugh loudly.

    "Shut up!" I growled.

    He continued laughing.

    "You stupid fools!" Petrovic screamed. "Shut the fu-Ah!" Mitch yelled.

    I spun around and saw Petrovic standing over Mitch with a chair raised. My eyes widened.

    I immediately tackled him to the ground. I groaned loudly as we fell to the ground and the chair landed on my back. Petrovic screamed in pain because of his gunshot. I took this as my chance to punch him in the face. I crawled off and ran to Mitch.

    I cupped his face.

    "Are you okay?" I asked worriedly. "Yeah. Go." He panted. I nodded.

    I pecked his lips and went towards the laptop. I anxiously typed on the keyboard trying to stop the bomb.

    "You won't stop it." Petrovic said in pain.

    I ignored him. I need to concentrate. I looked at the timer on the screen.

    Six minutes.

    Okay, Tiffany you got this.

    "You can do this." I muttered.

    Just then the door was kicked open. I froze as three men walked in.
