Camila's POV

"Arghhh," I hear someone groan.

I look over to see Austin and one is his man down, while Lauren is fighting off the other one.

I grab Austin's gun and knock the guy off of Lauren. He falls on top of her and she swiftly moves out from under his body.

"Wow," She smiles.

I kiss her lips feeling relief we are still drawing breathes.

"How did..."

"With this fella," Lauren smiles holding up her rope.

"How?" I asked in disbelief.

"I don't know if it was luck or love for you but I found strength to punch one of the guys and grab my rope in time to drop Red Skull off his feet."

"I owe you my life," I kiss her lips.

"You hold my heart, do I hold yours?" She asks with an eyebrow raised.

"Yes," I smile as our fingers interlock.

I feel a hand cover my mouth as my eyes start to get droopy again. I see Lauren collapse and soon I do too.

-----------------------------------------------------

I slowly open my eyes hearing hits. I look over to see Lauren in her ab-normal clothes getting punched on repeatedly by that other dude I saw earlier.

I move my hands and let out a huge sigh.

"Again," I groan making the guy stop and Lauren look over at me trying to catch her breath.

"I'll get Austin," He chuckles and leaves after giving Lauren one last punch.

We both stay silent and I start whimpering feeling the tears start to stream down my face.

"Camila..."

I look over at Lauren and she bites her bloody lower lip.

"Yes?" My voice cracks.

She tries to break free but can't.

"Don't cry, please."

"They're gonna kill you in front of me and then me after," I whine tears falling rapidly.

"Camila, look at me..." She whispers.

I meet her green eyes and I bite my lip.

"I love you... I'm so sorry I didn't tell you who I really was... I wanted you to fall in love with both sides of me... To show you I'm no different just because I'm a superhero... I wanted to tell you.. I swear," She whispers.

"I believe you," I crack a small smile, "And I saw it, your no different at all."

Lauren smiles, "I'll get you out of here even if it means me dying."

"I wouldn't let you do that," I whisper.

"You have to," Lauren whispers.

"Why?" I asked, confused.

The door opens and we both look over to it.

"Let the party begin!" Austin chuckles.
