To murder or to escape (2) DRAFT

Chapter 19

Jaz's POV

Screaming echoed throughout the factory. We glance at each other knowing exactly who's screaming. Amy.

"What do we do?" Maddy mouthed to me. I shake my head and mouth "nothing". She gives me a confused look but I ignore it.

It isn't long until Amy returns followed closely by Gary. Her eyes are blank and emotionless and her face is pale. She shows no expression whatsoever. She has a bandage wrapped her neck which is soaked in blood. She looks around the room at us.

"Amy, aren't you going to explain to your allies what happened?" Gary asks. Amy glares at him. Gary laughs.

"What did you-" dr jones asks.

"I cut her voice box. She will never speak again." He explains smiling evilly.

"How could you?" Maddy asks.

"She needed to be punished." Gary explains simply.

"You claim you love her yet you hurt her and push her away, it is illogical." dr jones says.

"You know nothing of us." Gary says. Amy nods.

"Punishment is proof. Just as father said before he perished." Gary says. Again, Amy nods.

"Proof of what?" I ask.

"Caring and love." Gary announces.

"Ha ha." I say sarcastically. Gary mumbles something I don't hear. I probably don't want to.

"Amy go to my office, now." She looks at the floor as she walks out of the huge factory room.

Amy's POV

I walked into his office and sat in an armchair in front of his wooden desk. I stare at the assortment of papers scattered across the desk.
I sit patiently and wait for Gary to walk through the door.

It isn't a very long wait until he does arrive. He sits across from me in an armchair and looks at me expressionless.

"Amy, I'm going to reveal to you everything. This will decide wether you are trustworthy or not. Also I think you should know, as I intend to state you as my lieutenant. Vira will be my third in command." He explains. I nod to show I am listening and understand.

"As you know I control the entire two continents of South and North America and now the entire of Australia. The prime minister surrendered ten minutes ago actually. Anyway, Europe, Asia and Africa have teamed up together and have declared war against me. Soldiers will begin to invade South Africa within the hour." Gary explains. I nod trying to show no expression even though inside, I am more terrified than I have ever been. I gesture to a pen and paper. Gary nods and I pick up the pen. I quickly scribble down a message and hand it to Gary.

"May I tell the others that world war three has started and about the continents. Not any details. Just a brief summary." He reads aloud the message. He looks at me thoughtfully before nodding. I nod and get up. Gary walks out behind me.

I stand in front of Jaz, Maddy and dr jones and mouth to them everything as Gary watched. They remain silent until I have finished relaying a brief summary of what Gary had told me.

"So what your saying, is, that world war three has begun."
