The shy girl cover up

Chapter 1

It all happened so fast... *bang* *bang*, then came the blood curdling screams of my brothers and parents. I was curled up into a tight ball shaking back and fourth. "Stay calm Faith, remember what mom told you." I felt my breathing go ragged, and with every exhale my rib cage seemed to shake under the pressure. I heard more gun shots in the distance *bang* bang*. They seemed to be never ending. After what seemed like an eternity, there was nothing but silence. Unfortunately, this didn't put me at ease whatsoever, if anything it worried me even more. I felt a panic attack rake over me for the tenth time since this whole thing started. I tried to ride it out as quietly as possible, but someone heard me. Suddenly a shadow of a man appeared on top of me, and I cowered into the corner in fear. I felt him grab onto my arm roughly, and my body went into flight or fight mode.

I swung my fist as hard as a ten year old could below his belt. He screamed like a caged animal, and I used that as my chance to escape. I ran out between his legs and made a sprint towards the stairs. I went up our winding staircase, but I was running out of breath quickly. I grabbed my chest, and tried to slow my heart down. I hid myself in my parents closet among the many clothes and shoes. I was breathing heavily in great protest of my mind. I felt my mind racing, thinking of what would happen if I got caught, what had happened to my family, will I die? I heard heavy thumps going up the steps. The shadow man started to sing a song, and I started to silently cry. "Oh little lamb, just come out and play. Let me slaughter you like the little lamb your are, your herd has already been eradicated, why won't you come play with me little lambbb." I started to cry heavily with loud sobs racking themselves through my throat.

I felt the light flood in, as the closet doors swung open to reveal my shaking form. I tried to not look at the disgusting man in front of me, so I kept my head down. Just as I felt his hot and rotten breath invade my senses, I felt a liquid spray onto my hair and face. I looked up to see another man plunging a knife into my attackers back. My attacker spat blood at me, as he fell to the ground in a pathetic heap. I look up at my savior in fear, unsure of who I could trust anymore. I was done crying because I was so shocked by what I had just witnessed. This man was heavier, and he was pretty stocky. He had jet black hair, but he seemed to be slightly balding. He had a scruffy beard, and soft brown eyes. After surveying him for a good minuet, without him attacking me I assumed I could trust him. I jumped out of the closet, and into his arms. I felt safe and secure in his arms, and I drifted off to sleep from my lack of remaining energy.

I awoke with a startle, and rubbed my eyes scanning my surroundings. I can't believe that I had that nightmare again, whatever I need to get up and get to training. I walked over to my closet and pulled out a blue and pink sports bra along with some black Nike shorts. I threw them on my bed and dragged myself to my attached bathroom. I brushed my teeth quickly and headed to the gym which was located in the basement. The house I live in is huge, because of how many different agents currently living in it. Oh yeah, I am a secret agent, who assassinates people. Only bad people though, because obviously I wouldn't kill people just for the hell of it.

I jogged down the stairs to the main floor where I saw Danny Good, Randy Blackwater, and Daniel Render. Danny was the funny guy, and he always knew how to cheer me up no matter what happened that particular day. Randy was really shy and he was the voice of reason in our group, he was basically our dad to be completely honest. Then there was Daniel, the guy who I hate to admit but, I have a huge crush on. We both grew up in the system and we never left each other's side since I got here. Danny and Daniel were my partners but Randy was technically my boss, but he was the one who saved me seven years ago. We are all really close and I love them to death, even if I won't admit it to them. I smiled and waved at them eating breakfast as I made my way to the basement to work out. I always worked out before I ate, otherwise I would just throw up my food.

After my workout was complete I went upstairs and found Daniel hovering over the stove. I smiled and called out to him, "Hey Daniel while your over there staring at the oven why don't you make me some bacon and eggs?" I saw him whip around fast enough to give himself whiplash, and give me the biggest smile. "Coming right up, but you soooo owe me later!" I smiled and shook my head as I made my way to my bathroom to grab a quick shower and make it back downstairs before Daniel ate my breakfast, again....

---I know that I said I would start revising this story in June, but I decided to give you all a sneak peek into the changes that the story is going to undergo. I really hope that all of you like this little preview, and stay alert for any new updates that I might make to this story. I hope to make more of these in advance so that I can pump out as many chapters as I can during June. I want to try and get the story fully written by the end one June, but no promises. I will try my best, and I just hope that you all will enjoy my story and not hate the new spin that I have decided to take with it

Love Hope <3
