Chapter 6

                       Ratatata

I slowly opened my eyes to see a dark ceiling being left on a cold hard floor. Coming to realisation, I remembered everything from the previous night. I started panicking knowing that once u get taken by anyone your life is at immediate risk. Bruises all over my body as if I've been beaten and left for dead. My eye still swollen but I wouldn't let that make me give up, I know I'm stronger. I struggled to get up using my elbows still on the cold floor in a dark bedroom, normal to me. I had to realise if everything was true and I wasn't just in a dream until I heard shouting downstairs from familiar voices. Jalen. The boy I had the most hatred for, someone that's ruined my whole life. I know he wants me dead, but he can't unless I get to him first...

I woke up once again still on the cold floor with pain flowing through my entire body and a throbbing headache. I'm guessing it was the next day or even longer as the light creeping in from the corner of the window that's been covered for obvious purposes. I laid there for a couple minutes until I heard heavy load footsteps getting closer and closer to my room. The door burst open bring light onto my face and a dark silhouette standing at the door chuckling.
"Roxanne! Your awake love"
Still struggling to talk "I'm not your love".
As his face came into the light he was angry by my reply to him, he walked over to me and bent down.
"Who do you think your talking to?" He said quietly.
"You" i replied angrily.
He raises his fist in the direction of my face and punched me so hard I knocked out again.
It was later that night I was awoken by loud manly voices shouting at eachother I built up enough strength to get up and see what it was as I was building up more and more hope that it was someone to get me. I knew I hadn't been here long but I couldn't take it any longer I was cold and starving. I reached the stairs as the voices were getting louder almost scaring me. My feet pressed against the cold floor as I saw a familiar face which overwhelmed me. It was Mattia, the happiness came over me even though I might not be leaving, knowing that Mattia is here the happiness I felt was unexplainable. There was a lot of boys down there around 7 I only recognised Mattia which is the last person I thought who would turn up here. And then I caught his eye.
"Roxanne!" Mattia shouted sounding relieved.
All the boys turned around to face me, I was frozen in place, but as jalen tried to grab me Mattia hit him round the back of his head.

But then Jalen's and Mattia's boys all pulled out guns at each other and started shooting. I ducked my head and run upstairs into the room I had been left in. The sound of gun shots wasn't new to me but knowing I wasn't doing anything bothered me. A couple seconds later I realised I couldn't let Mattia leave me too and ran out the room still low to the ground. The scene of the big house downstairs disturbed me, there was already blood on the walls as everyone was ducking behind tables and chairs. It was like everyone was fearless showing no emotion as they pulled the trigger on someone they might not even know. I was in my outfit from where I was taken but instead of white it was a dark grey and blood showing where I've been treated, this definitely caught Mattia's eye making him even more angry as he started shouting but I couldn't hear by the sound of the blaring shots. I met Mattia behind one of the tables as I was brave enough to even get down there. He tried talking to me.
"Roxanne I'm so sor-"
But I cut him off straight away as there wasn't anytime to talk. I grabbed his gun as he started into my broken eyes and tried to grab my arm but I got up straight away and started shooting at random boys around the house trying to find jalen as he was my only target.

Minuets were passing and time was being wasted crawling around with bullet holes in the wall my target was found. He was crouching behind a wall and hadn't noticed me yet. I knew this was my time to just pull the trigger but something at the back of my mind was controlling me not to and I was frozen, my gun pointing at him and my eyes staring. What about all the consequences this could lead to and what would happen to me again. But then I realised the hurt he had given to me and how he treated me. Killing my brother. Shooting me. Kidnapping me. Ruining my whole life. What pity did I have for him.

Before I could even think about anything else I already pulled the trigger. It's like everything went in slow mo and the bullet travelled into his head. Killing him instantly. My heart skipped a beat as cold blood was on my hands and not literally. I turned my head slowly as gun shots were still being shot from the outside too. I saw Mattia staring into my eyes just the way when I was shot. Flashbacks and mistakes, all I could remember and think about was my body hitting the floor as the bullet was inside of me in Mattia's arms and my family calling my name. I couldn't lose focus as Mattia grabbed my arm and we ran out of the house which felt like a maze. We ran into a black car and speeded of as quickly as we could. Not a word came out of my mouth as Mattia was trying to reassure me.
"Roxanne Im so sorry"
"It's not your fault"
"Nothing would ever be your fault"

But still not a word was said as I stared out the car window knowing that I've just taken someone's life away from them...
