Amongst The Shadows

Chapter 2

"Why did she lead them to a forest?!" Eric yelled in a panic at his friends in the car. All he got was silence and shrugs.

"This is not good at all" Leo said as Eric turned into the forest sharply.

"She must truly be insane, does she have a death wish?" Randel said as his own confusion grew at the woman who voluntarily drove into a forest with dark mages on her trial.

"No she must have a plan, no one can sense dark mages from another vehicle, she must just think men are following her" Rosa said to the men.

"Why on Earth would you lead men human or not into the forest on your own!" Eric yelled as he tried to steer the car through the forest, thankfully it wasn't a dense forest and the other two cars led them on an easy trail.

"Heads up" Rosa said nodding to what was up ahead.

"Okay so be cool Ariel" she said as she got out of her car and silently placed the gun in the back of her pants and fisted the baton. She walked out and met the men half way in the clearing and glared.

"Son of a b*tch why is it always the hot ones?" She said in anger, as the men came into the light of her car. She instantly recognised them from the petrol station. You could not forget those types of bodies or tailored suits so easily.

"Why did you hear that boys? She thinks we are hot" the middle man said cheerfully. She hated that they had masks on their faces.

"And? Being hot doesn't make you smart dumbasses" she retorted with a snort and she saw the man on the right fist up his right hand. Good so that man would fall for taunts, though from the other two who remained still, they would be harder to crack. She needed to tread lightly.

"So what do you want stupid heads? Ha?" She asked, and smirked a little when that same man with the fisted hand stepped forward. The middle man though did not let him continue and placed a hand on his chest stopping him.

"What makes you think we want anything? We just want to talk that's all" the middle man reasoned and Ariel laughed without humor.

"Talk? Yo man with the balled up fist, next time you want to use this loser here to try and negotiate, hide your weapons better dummy. I can see your gun which by the looks of it, looks bigger than your pen*s, so I'm assuming your sex life is severely lacking" she said with a fake smile.

That was all she needed as the man barreled towards her with an angry cry and Ariel smiled as she reached for her gun and aimed true.

The man fell down instantly before her feet.

The other two men did not move and watched silently. After a moment of tense silence the middle man clapped.

"Ah she carries a gun! It appears we underestimated the daughter of the great Walter White!"

Ariel glared at the man and remained pointing her gun at the creep.

"What do you want? Or do you want to end up like your friend here?" She threatened but instead of receiving her answers she was met with a laugh.

"Ah as I said before you taunted my man, who now lays at your feet dead. I wanted to talk, however we have people joining us soon and sadly our talk my lovely dove shall have to wait" he said as he bowed low and mockingling at her.

"No!" She yelled and fired bullets but it was too late in a puff of smoke the two men and the body that had laid at her feet were gone and she turned to an approaching large Ute.

She put her gun away with anger as more strangers stepped out of the car.

"What are you doing here?" She asked the strangers, keeping her hand firmly on the gun behind her back.

"We want to talk" one of them said and honestly she couldn't make them out well enough with the headlights beaming.

"Talk?" She scoffed at them as they came closer to her. As they got closer she knew her heart couldn't take it anymore three incredibly handsome men and one woman came into view and by god did that one man who had black hair and violet eyes not make her heart sing and damn if that v neck shirt didn't hug him any tighter in the right places.

"Look we saw you talking to three men and then shoot one like a trained marksman. I haven't seen someone shoot that well in a while" the woman said and Ariel nodded slowly waiting for more.

"However if we truly wanted to kill you, you would be dead now" the woman continued and Ariel scoffed.

"This is boring, hurry up!"

Ariel smirked at the man behind the woman and man with violet eyes.

"I agree, speak or we find out truly if you can kill me or not. That man was a dumb ox and I shot him with one hand. I would enjoy a challange" she said holding out her gun, reinforcing her challenge.

The man with the violet eyes groaned and slapped the man in the back before turning back to Ariel.

"We knew your father okay? We know Walter White personally and he trusted us, just as we trusted him. We also know that he kept things from you, that you have been dying to know about" he said with his hands raised as Ariel's heart rate spiked.

"No you are lying" she said shaking her head and turning her back to her car.

"We know how he died!"

Ariel paused and turned back to the strange group, slamming her door and marching up to the guy in the back and pointing the gun between his eyes.

"You listen to me, no one knows how he died, no one knows who did it, do not toy with me or so help me God I will kill you all" she said in a quiet threatening tone. She knew they all would have heard her, it was too quiet for them not to hear her.

The man gulped and nodded at her, she paid him no mind as she spun on her heels and looked to the man with the violet eyes and her heart froze. He was devastatingly handsome up close.
God life was so unfair.

"I am going now, this never happened and never mention his death in front of me again" she threatened before walking off again towards her car and driving off without looking back.

The group watched her leave with wide eyes and Rosa smiled at the retreating car.

"Well that went well!"

All three turned to Randal at once and glared.

"Shut up Randal" they all said.
