We were getting closer to factionless and everyone was slightly on guard. No one thought that factionless would be a threat but I had a weird feeling that I couldn't shake.

It was strange and it just wouldn't go away no matter how I thought about.

Maybe it's because I didn't eat. Yeah definitely.

"Alright dauntless listen up!" Eric's voice boomed. Everyone's head snapped towards Eric and straightened up, holding on tightly to their guns.

"Everyone is gonna have a partner, you stick by their side." Eric said before four walked over to him.

Fuck I forgot that Four was gonna be here.

"Four wanna pick someone." Eric smirked before his eyes landed on. I quickly ducked behind Zeke, praying that Four didn't want me as his partner.

Not me

Not me

Not me

"Jessica." Fuck

I let out a small groan and walked over to him, glaring at four. I regret doing this shit.

I looked over at Eric who seemed to be pissed at Four. His eyes were burning and shooting daggers into four.

He was glaring at him...harder than usual

What the hell is he so pissy about.

They continued to pair people up and Eric ended up with some blonde that was more than happy to be on his team.

I rolled my eyes and looked out the door. I realized that we were getting close to factionless and the feeling got worse.

My stomach was twisting and turning and kept pulling at me. The feeling of having to vomit came but I knew I didn't have to throw up. The feeling just sat in the back of my throat, taunting me in some way.

Then someone step in front of me, blocking my view of everyone else.

I could figure out who it was cause it could only be one person.

"Move out my way Eric." I growled, but he didn't budge. I wasn't in the mood to deal with his fuckery. "Eric I said move."

"Unless you want everyone to see your tits, I'll stand right here." He said.

See my tits?

I looked down and realized that my shirt was wrapped around my finger, pulling it down and showing my chest.

It was a habit I had that I really needed to break. When something was wrong I tend to twist my fingers around my clothes, which usually results in people seeing my chest.

Why did it matter him if anyone saw my tits? If anything I expected Four to get all butt hurt and run over. If we're going to be honest, he probably was watching.

I quickly unwrapped my finger and pulled up my shirt up. I turned my head and felt my ears heat up.

"Leave that for me." Eric winked before walking towards the door and hitting the button to open it.

"Excuse me!?" I yelled only to be cut off. "We're here dipshits! Get with your partners and let's go."

I have a bad feeling about this.

HOLY MOTHER OF MARY I WAS RIGHT!!

I knew something was gonna happen and it did. The factionless knew we were coming and set a whole trap for us.

Bullets were flying past us and some through. The sound of rapid fire and the sound of the bullets hitting metal rang through my ears.

"Damn it!" I yelled as I sighed for cover behind a metal box. I tried to catch my breath as I looked around to see bodies scattered everywhere.

This was a bad idea!

A thud has made me tense up before quickly turning around and aiming my gun at the person who had just hid next to me.

"Hey partner." Four huffed.

I'm debating wether or not to shoot him now.

"This is insane." I groaned throwing my head back. A bullet hit the box causing both Four and I to flinch.

I positioned myself over the box and began shooting. I'm guessing from the two groans and screams, I hit some people. I couldn't really see since there was such thick fog.

"Where the hell is Eric?" I asked looking around as I flinched at another bullet hitting the box.

Four didn't answer.

I didn't really expect him to answer.

I knew I couldn't hide forever. I got up and ran over to a building but of course I had to fight.

A factionless jumped in front of me and swung at me. I quickly ducked and kicked him in the stomach causing him to fall back. I quickly pointed my gun at his side and pulled the trigger.

I felt a stab of guilt as I heard him groan. That wasn't a man...that was a teen....a kid...

I wanted to puke. My side began to ache as my head began to spin.

I just...I just shot a kid....

"Jessica!"

I quickly turned my head and saw Four running towards me. Looking at me and at...someone aiming right at me.

Before I could react

I was on the floor, groaning in pain.

Sorry for the short chapter...I was writing this when I got news of JuiceWRLD's death. He'll be deeply missed 💔
