The Cold - Hearted Assassin

Chapter 7

Ria's p.o.v.

I've been trying to figure out why Axel kept this and why was he looking at my picture. He told me not to talk to him anymore, yet he kept this. Ugh, I'm annoyed that I can't come up with anything.

Ashlyn and Hunter barged into the room with smiles," Guess what?" Ash said.

"What?" I asked confused.

"Ugh, that is not guessing," Ash said in a whiny voice.

"Totally off topic. Anyways we have a lead to where Des Wan might be. But I have a feeling he is there." Hunter said excited.

Wow, that was fast we only got the mission about a week ago and we already have a lead.

"Where is he then?" I asked.

"Well my laptop pinned him to be somewhere in New Jersey. Oh yah, in the 1800 many witches lived there. So I'm thinking that maybe he was getting the left over potions of the witches." she said looking down at her phone. I just nodded.

"So when are we leaving?"

"Tomorrow morning around 6:30," she said.

"Oohhh, I have to go tell Axel," Ash said jumping up and down.

I groaned," Do you have to?"

"Yes, he is part of our group now, so he needs to know everything we find out." Ash said as if she was talking to a kid. I just rolled my eyes because I remembered that Ash and Axel were best friends when we were younger.

Ash and Hunter left an hour ago, right now I was packing all the necessary things I have to bring. I finished packing and started watching a movie called Life As We Know It. I was thinking about all the scenarios of what could've happened if Axel and me were still friends. But all of the scenarios ended up with us having a lovey-dovey corny relationship, and I did not want that. So I pushed that all to the back of my head and started about attacks to take down Des Wan, but that ended up with me thinking how awkward the ride to New Jersey which would be at least a 6 hour drive. Instead of thinking all about that I just shut off the tv and went straight to bed.

Dream*

I woke up to see a thirteen year old Ria getting ready for school. She was wearing black leggings and a purple shirt with a drawing of a monkey with sunglasses. I laughed at the way I used to dress, very casual but stylish. Little Ria went down the stairs to eat some breakfast, I decided to follow her. She was greeted by her mom.

"Morning sweetie, ready to go to school? Dad is already in the car waiting for you." her mom said in a sweet voice.

"Oh, okay mom. I'll go now then." Ria stood from her chair fast to get to the car.

"Anxious to see Axel, huh?" her mom said teasingly.

"Mom, stop it, we're just friends and you just told me that dad is in the car. so shouldn't I hurry?" Little Ria said blushing while trying to make up a lie.

I laughed at this. The little version of me ran to the car and I just followed. She was talking to my dad about random things.

"So you look happy today," my dad just randomly blurted out.

A light blush spread through her cheeks while saying, "Nothing, just happy."

"Uh-huh," my dad said unconvinced.

Then I realized what was about to happen, my eyes widen in shock as I remembered that little Ria was going to talk to Axel and he tells her to not tiger anymore. I tried every way to tell her not to go to him. But I just saw the worst moment if my life replay. I felt anger bubble up inside me for just crying like a little wuss at that time.

End of dream*

I didn't realized I was crying until Ash was shaking me to wake up and asking why I was crying. Hunter comes in to the room, to talk to Ash by she looked at me and stopped.

"What happened? why are you crying?" Hunter asked concern.

"I guess I just had a bad dream. that's all." I said wiping my tears.

"Ok then, are you ready? were leaving now." Ash asked grabbing her bag. I just nodded and we went to the car. We just sat in the car in silence and I decided to break it.

"Why are we still here?"

"We're waiting for Axel." Hunter said looking around. Okay I forgot about him. I didn't notice that he was already in the car and we took off. That is when everything went dead silent, it was so awkward that we heard Ash's breathing. I decided to plug in my earphones to lessen the tension, I looked at the mirror and saw Ash and Hunter laughing with Axel. Oh find, be b*tches. Talk to this axehole but not me, well that's what friends are for. I rolled my eyes and ended up falling a sleep. Hunter was shaking me to wake up.

"We're here," she said annoyed probably because I am a heavy sleeper. heck, I can sleep through the sound of a bomb exploding.

"Huh, where are we?"

"We are in New Jersey now," she said annoyed. "Ash and Axel are already in their rooms."

"One more question. What time is it?" I asked scared she might blow.

And here it comes,"For Pete's sake you have a freaking watch." well I feel really stupid. I look at my watch to see its past 12 in the afternoon.

"Also, we're going to the abandoned warehouse around 4 to see if Des Wan is there." Hunter said and walked into the motel. We all decided to eat lunch, including the axehole. We just went to a Chinese restaurant. Now, me, Ash and Hunter are wearing black fitted bodysuits which feel like the lulu lemon leggings. Except mine has areas with dark purple, Ash has areas with white, and Hunter has areas with red. Axel was just wearing black jeans and a dark blue shirt, talk about not being prepared.

At the warehouse*

We walked in cautiously checking our surroundings making sure everything is clear. We walked all the way to the back of the warehouse, this area had dim lights and I can only see our figures. A figure walks out of the corner, and I thought we found Des Wan till the figure became two. The lights got brighter and we saw two boys, one with black hair and brown eyes, and another with brown hair and green eyes. The guy with black hair had a perverted smile towards me. Then I thought, "Eewwww, was he eye raping me or something."

Then the guy with brown hair says, "ATTACK!!!"

And all hell broke loose.
