Kill or be killed

Endless night

It was silent through the hall as I gulped and took deep breaths.

"Veronica..are you okay?"
Sanchez suddenly asked from behind me as I gulped and turned around to face him

"I'm fine. Help me take him body out"
I said walking closer to the body but then I stopped. I raised my hand signalling him to stop as well.

My eyes rapidly looked around hearing a ticking sound.

Shivers ran through my body.
"Sanchez run!"
I yelled and just as I did the door exploded open.
From the pressure me and Sanchez flew back. Him into the stairs and me on the railing.

My back smashed into it and I fell on my stomach.
Debris and smoked filled the air and I coughed pulling myself up on my knees.

Looking over I saw Sanchez getting up on the stairs.

"Sanchez run! Now!"
I yelled looking up and seeing my Fathers men fill the hall.
I ran towards him and snapped him into reality.

"In my room behind the wardrobe there's a hole that will take you out of here. Go in it now!"
I said as he looked panicked.

"What about you-"

"Go!"

He nodded and ran back and I turned around seeing his men fill the place.
I stood in the middle of the stairs as my face twitched.

Even after his death he can't leave me the fuck alone.

"We've been instructed not to kill you but if you get in our way We will hurt you"
One of them said with a mask on.

"Fuck all of you!"
I yelled trying to buy time for Sanchez to get out.
He must have made it by now.

They have guns..and I have my fists.

They saw I wasn't moving and nodded at each other.

Suddenly the one in front pulled the trigger.
A loud scream left my mouth as I fell on the stairs holding my leg.
The bullet piercing right through my thigh making me furrow my brows and take deep breathes.

"Move move!"
The men yelled to each other

"No! Wait!"
I screamed trying to get up but couldn't from the pain.

Three surrounded me with guns watching me.
But one by one they dropped to the ground.
I looked up and saw Christopher, Kevin and Ace enter the room with guns.

"Fuck, you okay!"
Ace asked running to me and dropping to his knees.

"I'm fine. Go upstairs and make sure Sanchez made it down the hole!"
I yelled as he helped me stand.
He nodded and signalled Christopher to come to me.

"You can't put up a fight like this. Let me take you out of here"
He said trying to help me down but I stopped him.

"I can't Chris. I have to stay!"
I said while adrenaline built up in me.

"Veronica. Our men have surrounded the area and went in through each corner. Please-"

"No chris. I'm going"
I said turning around and limping up the stairs
Chris ran a hand through his hair and had no choice but to follow me.

He kept his gun raised while I made it to the top.
But people came toward me so Christopher got busy with them leaving me by myself.

I quickly limped out of there and made it into my room.

The door was open but Ace wasn't here.
I suddenly heard someone behind me and I hid by the side.

Someone entered the room and I quickly grabbed their gun lowering but they pulled the tigger and it rained bullets all over my walls and bed.
When it was empty I slammed the gun up into his face and punched him a bunch of times till he was unconscious.

"Fuck.."
I cried out from the amount of blood that was leaving my thigh.
Walking to the wardrobe I opened it and saw Sanchez still standing out

"What the fuck are you doing!"
I whisper snapped

"I was waiting for you.."
He said and I just stared at his worried face

"Sanchez I'm not coming. I can't.."
I said shaking my head as he furrowed his brows.

"Veronica-"

"Sanchez I have to make sure my men are okay..I can't leave them"
I said as Kevin walked In.

"Kevin take him out and keep him safe. I'm trusting you"
I said as he nodded.

Kevin grabbed Sanchez who kept his eyes on me until I was out of sight.
I sighed and shut the wardrobe.

I limped out of the room and looked around.
This floor was empty.

But another door was open.
Going to it I was about to step inside but there was a sharp prick at my neck.
Followed by some liquid entering

My sight was quick to go blurry and my head dizzy.

"Fuck..."
I whispered before collapsing into someone's arms.
