Ch. 20

Allison's POV

I've been here days, getting checked out by hundreds of men and cover in my tears. I didn't know what time it was, or what day it was.

Sitting on the bed, shaking from the cold and from the harshness. Hearing someone outside, I quickly got up and ran to the bathroom. I locked the door and put my ear to the door. I heard footsteps, heels tapping the ground, and I know it was Gina.

"Hurry up in there!" she yelled. I put my back against the door, afraid to open it. But I was thinking of something, I was planning this. And this was my only escape. I climbed onto the toilet seat, trying not to make any noise. I opened the window slightly, hearing of anyone was still out there. When the coast was clear, I opened the window fully and climbed out.

I fell to the ground on my feet, which hurt a lot, and I ran. I looked to see if any guards were on the lookout. Nobody was here, so I ran and I was confronted by a fence. I saw a sign, saying it was electrical. I ran to the side, seeing a car. I ran to it, opened the car door and a man was sleeping. He was dressed in a black suit with slick hair and shades. He liked like he was in his 20s, so he must've been new.

In the backseat, there was a gun. Afraid to touch it, I reluctantly got it and pointed it to the guy's head. He instantly woke up, and even behind his glasses, I could sense that he was afraid. "Drive!" That's all I said, one word and he drove off. He didn't look at me at all, he kept his eyes glued to the road. Well, we weren't on the road yet, he knocked off anyone.

We finally landed on the pavement, cars coming behind us, and I saw Gina in one. She was driving it, with a guy who was coming out of the window with a shotgun!

He shot once, then twice, and a third time with the glass shattering. I ducked when he shot another one, and unfortunately shot the guy. Dammit! I took the wheel, not knowing where to go. I saw a route, a route that looked really dangerous, but I took it anyway.

The road was bumpy, and I had to kick the guy out of the car. One bullet shot collapsed with the main glass, then another and another. It shattered to pieces, and I was doomed. The road came to an end, and I had to get out.

I was confronted with five cars, men coming out while Gina leaded them. "I guess this is goodbye." she said. She pulled the trigger, making a blast of pain come to me. And what happened next, I had no idea.

Karen's POV

I was serving Johnny's plate, when it fell from my hand and I felt a pain in my chest. I felt dizzy, like something happened, I felt something wrong, I sensed it.

"Are you okay?" Steve asked me, he helped me sit down in one of the chairs. I rubbed my head, I had felt headaches since Allison had been missing. We set the police to do a search party, but there was no news about my daughter. A knock came from the door and I got up to open it. A police wearing shades was holding a notepad and I was nervous.

"Mrs. Cortez, we need you to come with us."

"Why." I asked. "Because we have found your daughter, but..."

"But what?!"

"Just come with us."

Steve had taken Johnny upstairs, telling me that he would protect him. I grabbed my coat and ran into the police car. The whole drive was silent, I heard my heart beating every second rapidly, my breath shaky. It was a long drive, but we made it to an area that was dirt only with no one to be seen.

Polices were everywhere, either taking people in, or investigating the area. I then saw a body, a body that made my heart sink. I ran out the car, pushing people out of the way, kneeling down to her. Tears building in my eyes, cupping her face in my hands.

"Ma'am, we need you to ate aside. We need to see if she is still alive." one of the officers said. I didn't want to let go, but another officer came and picked me up. They checked for a pulse, but the look on their faces scared me. "I'm sorry."

Those words killed me.

Sorry this chapter is short, next one will be long as usual.
