Hidden Identities

Chapter 9

Once again Dallas left me outside while he destroyed the transmitter but this time I stood closer to the building and if someone looked out I could be seen. 

I waited for the other assassin to come a finish his job, but he never did. Even when Dallas came back from destroying the transmitter. I grew in power but not confidence, I knew that the other assassin was planning something and I wasn't ready for it. I was never ready. There was nothing I could do to stop him, with or without powers. 

" come one, we have one more. We should get to it before sundown. "

" where is it? " I asked him, it had to be somewhere far.

" across town. On top of the radio tower. " He waited for my reaction and it wasn't pretty. 

The radio tower had a peak, which you had to climb to the top of. There was no waiting at the bottom anymore, I had to climb to the top of the tower with him in order to get to stay somewhat safe with Dallas. 

" FUCK! " I yelled at the top of my lungs " and by sundown! Are you fucking kidding me! "

" well these were created to keep you from using your powers. "

" Right! I have powers! I can just teleport us there! But I won't know where we will end up. " I muttered to myself quietly. " hurry up grab onto me! "

He looked at me strangely but still grabbed on. I mustered up all of my powers and though about the radio tower. Then I though about my powers and put the two together, suddenly I could feel the air around us whirl and swish back and forth. We had teleported, but my powers only worked halfway. We ended up at the bottom of the tower. 

" What did you....how are we- "

" teleportation, my dear Watson. I transported all of our atoms to a different location using my brain power. "

" well come on dear Watson, we have to get this done before day ends and climbing seems like our only choice. "

My nose started bleeding, I covered it arching my head up. " I mean, it seems like your only choice. I can't go. "

Dallas though for a bit and then motioned for me to get closer. I stepped closer wondering what his plan was. He paused for a second then said " get on my back ".

" I'm going to bleed all over you....I mean my blood is going to get all over you. That sounded very wrong. Both sounded wrong, I'm sorry. " 

" I. don't. care. Just get on. "

" Fine! " I sighed 

I walked behind him and climbed onto his tall back. 

" hold on tight spider-monkey " He laughed 

" Don't you go quoting that terrible movie. " I spoke holding onto his back with one hand and holding my nose with the other. I wrapped my arm around his neck as we entered the building. 

It was empty inside and the hallways were lit by dark florescent lights. It was something out of a horror story, I didn't even know the place was abandoned. They played music everyday, but who was controlling it. 

I wrapped my legs tighter around his torso, I could just feel something coming our way. It lingered in the air like a decaying carcass. Maybe it was just the smell of my blood, because it also smelled pretty bad and I was getting it on his clothes. 

The hallways where like the catacombs, one tunnel led to another and another. I was afraid we might get lost. But Dallas knew exactly where to go.

" are we close to the top. "

" somewhat " he said walking into more darkness. 

" hey something doesn't feel right. There is someone else here with us, maybe we should leave. "

He didn't say anything, all he did was ajust me on his back and we kept going. We entered another dark hallway, this one was entirely pitch black no lights to be found. This time I felt scared, I wanted to keep going but....I knew there was also something wrong. As Dallas was about to enter the light of a new hallway, there was a loud swish in the air.

I turned my head of a split second to see the point of an arrow dipped in some green gel like substance. It flew into the shoulder that was wrapped around Dallas's neck. I suddenly couldn't hold onto him any longer, my body went numb. I dropped to the floor with a scream before I couldn't any longer. 

Quickly I was dragged down another hallway by my hair. Who ever was dragging me apparently knew where he was going. He ran with me dragging along, I wanted to scream my head off because of the pain, but I was quiet. Also I left a blood trail, I guess it was helpful for Dallas to come and find me. 

There was still and arrow sticking out of my back, it was tearing at my skin and grinding against my shoulder muscle. Every turn or move the person made, made the arrow go a little deeper into my shoulder. I never though the pain would end, even when I was dragged up the stars and outside. I had been dragged to the top of the radio tower. As I laid there on the ground, I saw the body of the person who dragged me up here. It was a woman, she was wearing all black jumpsuit that was tight to her body with black hair and blue eyes. Icy blue eyes.

She pulled the arrow out of my back suddenly, I wanted to scream again but my mouth had become full of blood. I could move again but my body convulsed, I started to gag and choke on the blood. I rolled onto my hands and knees and spit out the blood. Then I threw up more blood, my powers weren't working and I wasn't healing. We were to close to the transmitter.

This was pure hell, my insides burned like my blood was set on fire and there was nothing to extinguish it.

The door swung open to the other assassin, he was also wearing all black jumpsuit but he was still wearing a mask so I couldn't see his face. The other assassin pulled out a gun and pointed it at my head. I couldn't protect myself, if he shot me, I would die. 

The door swung open once again to Dallas, he stood in the doorway with another gun pointed at the assassin who was pointing the gun at me. 

" wait! " the woman said to Dallas " Don't you remember us? Dallas? " she added to her last remark.

He lowered the gun slightly trying to remember who they were, if he even knew them at all. 

The other assassin pulled off his mask to show him his face. He also had icy blue eyes and black hair. Something finally clicked in my head, they where the members of Dallas's family I hadn't killed. How many family members did he have. Their mother must had been busy.

Dallas lowered the gun completely.

"We are your real family, we watched you grow and change all through out your life Dallas. Until she ruined it " Dallas's brother cocked the gun, holding it straight to my head. 

I started to tremble and cough up more blood, it hurt. I wanted to pain to stop, maybe he should shoot me and just end it. I had nothing to live for.

" But Dallas, we have a chance to redeem ourselves. You can redeem us, you can kill her. Come on Dallas, you can do it," his sister said.

Dallas walked over to us and pointed the gun at my head, his brother removed his gun from my head and  spoke to Dallas

" come on, make father proud. "

I looked up at him, even though my eyes where red from the tears of coughing up blood and drips of it spilling down my chin. I smiled at him, even in my final moments I knew it would make him happy. He would finally get what he wanted, I was his main objective, he could finally get me out of the way. 

The bang of a gun exploded in my ears.......
