The Forgotten Life !!

Chapter 14

EMILY'S POV

At the HQ: 6:00 PM

When John informed me that Orions were on the move and were out and about in the city, I took a quick shower and got ready. I quickly headed out to the parking with my gun. I got on the bike with one of my fellow mates: Cain while Daniel and John got on another. We were a total of 6 people on 3 bikes. We usually prefer bikes in the evening when navigating through the city or while chasing someone on the road it becomes easy to cut through traffic. 

We got an update that a few of the Orions were headed to the City Mall. We quickly headed to the mall and camouflaged ourselves with the crowd while staying connected with in-ear Bluetooth. I glanced at the clock and it was already 7 pm.  

We scattered around checking the perimeter and the area around. Around 7:45 or so we noticed two of the Orions had made a move. I could see them getting closer to the entrance of the gate. I and Cain moved around a little closer to them but kept enough distance so they wouldn't recognise us. We looked around trying to find their target that's when I noticed Paul and a few other bodyguards by the car. I looked around to see if I could see the boys with him but they weren't there, they were probably shopping. 

A few minutes passed by and Liam, Louis and Harry walked out of the mall and headed to the car. They had a small chat with Paul and they got in. I looked over at the Orions but they were still just standing by their bike. 

After a while, I saw Niall and Zayn exit the mall with food bags. Just as they were getting down the stairs the Orions got on their bike and headed a little close to them. I didn't have any time to waste as I saw one of them pull out a gun and point at Niall and Zayn. I quickly rushed towards them. Seeing me rush John and Daniel followed along with others. Even before I could reach the guy with the gun had already pulled the trigger. I could feel my adrenaline rush through my body as I leaped in pushing Niall and Zayn out of the way. The bullet grazed through my arm hitting the glass doors causing it to shatter. 

I quickly looked at Niall and Zayn seeing they were safe I turned to look at the Orions but they had fled, and I saw a few of our bikes following them. 

Present Time

It was silent for a couple of minutes until Harry asked, "How did they know where to find us?" I looked at Harry with a soft smile. 

"There are many ways, like your phone's tracking, your or your fans' social media accounts, your credit cards, and all these can be used to track your location. We have access to all and so do they," Daniel responded. I could see everyone's face go from confusion to shock and then understanding as they nodded. 

"But why us? what have we done?" Niall questioned looking a bit scared. Liam softly rubbed his back comforting him.

"I wish I knew. Why would the attack Niall is what confuses me," I answered thinking. 

"Wait, so that bu-bullet was for m-me?" Niall questioned looking more scared.

"It was pointed towards you," I answered looking at him.

"Then why are you here for? Shouldn't you be protecting us or something? Why can't you just catch them if yll are those good guys and can get things done so easily?" Louis snapped. I looked at him. Harry held his hand trying to calm him down.

Louis took off his hand, "No Harry, ever since we crossed paths with them people have wanted Zayn dead and now Niall too" He looked at me. "what if y'll are the ones who are planning all this just to show yourself as some kind of hero? How does Emily always end up risking her life to save us? Last time you came you told us half a story and had no proofs. Now I even doubt those bullets are real how can a person just walk off easily just after they have been hit by a bullet? You all are freaking liars. Y'll just wanna play around and grab unnecessary attention," he blasted out.
