38 - Sorry I couldn't be there

rosé
I checked the time as I plopped down on the couch. More like my bed for now. It was almost 5 in the morning, and everyone was sound asleep. A tear escaped my eye, with the thought of Amy in my head.

Rosé, if you don't go, you'll lose her. Cole probably already told her that you know so she might feel like you don't care, but in reality... I do.

I wiped the tears that were escaping from my eyes and just decided, I'll go alone. I made my way to the meeting room, the very secured one. I took the keys from under the carpet that was stood in front of the door, and I started unlocking. The door nob scanned my fingerprint, making the big metal doors open.

My hands trailed over the guns and grenades that were hanging on the wall. I started taking rifles, guns, grenades and sharp knives. I placed them in my gun-holder belt. I have a bag for the rifle I will shoot at the two guards with.

I wore a pair of black shorts and an oversized t-shirt. Might not be your average, kill marathon outfit, but with the weapons under my clothes, this outfit sure does suit the occasion. I wore a bullet proof vest under my shirt, knowing today might be the last day of my life.

I walked to the front door, my hand placed on the door nob as I hesitantly opened it. Amy, here I come.

I walk past the huge house, sunglasses and a cap on. My hair was in a ponytail, not something I'm very used to. My legs led me to the building across of Cole's mansion.

I walked through the doors of the empty building and entered the elevator, taking me to the highest floor. 'Ding' I hear as the elevator doors open. The highest floor here was floor 37.

I left the elevator as my eyes looked over the old apartment building. There's no one here... at all.

I looked around the place I was in and found a room, so I decided to knock the door down. This is the only way I can shoot at the two guards.

I shot the doors open and walked into the dusty ass apartment. "Damn," I coughed. I smile in victory as the walls were all either windows or made of glass. I put the rifle bag down and started to set everything up to start shooting.

I lied on my stomach as I looked through 'front sight' as I saw the guard pacing back and forth looking around the block. I stood up and opened the window a little and went back to my position. "Jackpot," I smirked to myself after finally aligning the gun with the head of the guard.

My hand was on the trigger as my breathing started to pick up. "This is for you Amy."

BOOM

The other guard looked at the dead body frantically, so I took the time to shoot him too. "Headshot!" I whisper shouted in victory. I got up smiling at the success. Now I just have to sneak in and get Amy out of there.

I put the rifle back into its bag and left it in the room. I'd have to probably come back here with Amy, Incase she's injured and needs to rest for a little. And plus, Cole wouldn't expect me to be in the building right in front of him.

I ran out of the room and clicked on the elevator button, it instantly opened. On my way down, I loaded all the guns I had. I crossed my heart as I finally landed on the last floor.
