Born to Kill |Clato|

Chapter 13

Two men and a woman surrounded my sister, slightly blocking the sight of her. Chills were no longer running through my back, now replaced by a voice saying run, take her and get out of here.

My mind and my body wanted to do two completely different things, causing me to go into a little state of shock. I froze into place, looking at both the door and the doctor every few seconds.

I wanted Cassidy to look up and see me, to know that I had not given up and that the promise I made to her the first day we arrived was still present in my mind. But her long black hair covered the vast majority of her face, and I knew that if I made a wrong move the only thing I'd manage to do was them taking her away again.

So I decided to play by the rules, I took my clothes and got dressed.

In that moment one of the peacekeepers called for the girls' nurse, who a short time later called the doctor. I finished getting dressed and was about to get back to my room when I saw a new group round the corner.

I was completely alone in the little white room, everything at my finger tips and, when I saw the blonde hair I knew it was now or never. I took some of the syringes that were in the trays closest to the door. I made sure there were no moors on the coast and I hid them inside my boots.

My heart beat a thousand miles per hour, I knew that in a few hours I would be with Cassidy probably running from everything and everyone. That or I would be in a heck of a problem.

Some peacekeepers had returned to their positions, so I was very careful to "stumble" into Cato.

-Meet me in my room after bedtime -I whispered in his ear, hoping no one had seen me that he listened and, most of all that he would show up.

I came into my room, I was alone. I did not know where Leela might be, or how long she would take.

The more I tried to concentrate on being able to come up with a plan to save my sister and get us out of here, the more I became frustrated. I didn't know the structure of the building well enough, there were more peacekeepers than ever and I had no weapons available.

I only had the few syringes I was able to collect so any plan I came up with had to be perfect, or we'd end up worse than now.

Minutes became hours when I listened to the password knock on the door. Without hesitation a redhead girl came into the room.

-Clove, are you okay? -she sat in the bed watching me go to one side to the other of the room.

-Cassidy's here - I took a deep breath - I was so close Leela, I need to get us out of here - I couldn't put my thoughts in order, so many ideas and such little time.

- What are you talking about, Clove? - she frowned waiting for me to answer, I had told her everything that had happened since we ran away from Rilus, and now she acted like a big sister.

-We have to come up with a plan, they're going to take her soon, Stone Kyle is here and I think we both know why. I can't lose her again, Leela. -my eyes started to tear up like never before. Tears of frustration, anger, sadness, impotency, all I had felt in these days of captivity.

-I'll help-I stopped dead in my tracks looking at the girl.

-No Leela, I can't put you at risk. If I do this it will be by myself, and if it goes wrong I'll face the consequences... alone. - I stared at her waiting for her reaction, I knew the girl was no good at obeying orders -please, I can't lose you too -I pleaded, trying to make her understand that this was more dangerous that we could ever imagine.

-Then we have a lot of planning to do -she smiles and then crossed her arms, knowing that she wouldn't take a no for an answer.

AN/ So... here's chapter thirteen, I know it's short but I had a wave of inspiration and had to write. The story is kind of coming along in my brain so hopefully the updates will not be as sparced.

Again, thanks for reading.

Love, Bree.
