Lethal Elite

[43]

Alice then backed up slowly "What's going on?" she asked.

"I don't know.." I responded.

I could see Melanie running after the guy in the hoodie , they ran past the apartments to an alleyway. Then all of a sudden a group of fishy looking men got out of a strange all black truck parked across the street. They were dressed in all black from head to toe, they stood there watching Melanie chase the guy before walking towards my apartment. One of the men looked up at me before they put on their masks and began heading my way.

"We've got to go ... now!" I shouted while pushing Alice into my apartment.

I began pushing all of the broken furniture in my sight in front of the door.

"Alice get back!" I yelled.

"Open the door!" One of the men shouted from outside.

They started banging on the door trying to break it down.

I quickly picked up a piece of wood from my headboard for defense while Alice just stood there in weird silence.

One of the men punched their arm through the door and looked through the hole.

"I see her!" He shouted.

"Well grab her!" Someone else yelled.

The guy continued breaking the door down and then he stopped out of nowhere and it was quiet as if they disappeared into thin air.

Alice then scooted closer to me "Where did he go?" She asked.

"I'm not sure" I said while inching up to look through the hole in the door.

When I looked through the hole the men were all gone.

Then a strange muscular man with tattoos everywhere appeared through the hole and his eyes were glowing in a light blue color.

"What the hell?" I whispered.

The man put his palm out and a powerful blue force came shooting from his palm through the door making me fly into Alice.

The other men then came running up the stairs shocked to see the muscular man.

"Jax sent me to see what was taking so long" he said while reaching down to grab me.

I looked over at Alice who was completely unconscious and I was beginning to blank out with her.

"Put me down!" I shouted.

"Shut up!" He yelled.

Pieces of the wooden chips began floating off of the ground, along with every other object in the room and I began floating with it slowly.

"I said... put me DOWN!"

A dark purple mystical force then flew out of my body swinging the floating wooden chips into the man killing him instantly.

One of the men pulled out a bright beaming bow and arrow and shot it at me. "She's a consumer!"

"Kill her!" He yelled

He shot another bow and arrow at me again and I quickly caught it and shot it back at him without touching it.

The rest of the men then began firing aimlessly. So I quickly grabbed Alice and used the broken furniture as a protection barrier.

The men then ran into the room all at once and tackled me. Next , One of the men pulled out a glowing golden rope and wrapped it around my whole entire body. I tried to use my powers again but for some strange reason it wasn't working.

"Amilia? Alice?" Melanie yelled from outside.

"Melanie run!" I shouted.

Melanie tried to run into the room to help but it was like something was blocking her from coming in.

"Amilia, invite me in!" She yelled.

"What do you mean invite you in?" I yelled back.

One of the men then let go of me and approached the doorway.

"Oh look what we have here boys. Looks like we got ourselves a Vamp."

"A what?" I yelled.

"Amilia invite me in!" Melanie yelled again.

"Shut her mouth" one of the men yelled while handing the other a roll of duct tape.

I tried to invite Melanie in before they taped my mouth but it was too late.

"You're a sexy vamp too, I never would have thought..." The man whispered while taunting Melanie through the doorway.

Melanie then crept closer to the doorway, excited about the man taunting her. "You fools can't stay in there for long."

"You've got to come out of this doorway one way or another." she yelled as she shed her fangs and hissed like a python.

"Oh my god!" I mouthed through the duct tape.

The guy then backed up slowly and started smiling. "D, Grab the grappling hook. Let's get the girl and get out of here."

One of the guys picked me up and tossed me over his shoulder while the other busted out my window and shot the grapple hook to the building across the street. I kept moving my mouth trying to get the tape off but it just wasn't working fast enough. It was only slowly loosening from the sweat on my face.

They all started putting the hooks on the rope to slide out the window one by one. I began kicking and wiggling trying to get out of the man's hands. He then threw me down on the floor hard making me hit my head. "Stop moving around!" He shouted.

The main guy then grabbed the other and pushed him into the wall. "Don't hurt her you idiot! Jax said he wants her alive and without a scratch and now she's bleeding!"

They both began bickering back and forth and I saw it as an opportunity. I wiggled my way to Alice and began headbutting her to wake her up. She started opening her eyes slowly and I could see it in her eyes that she was getting ready to panic. I used my fingers to signal her to calm down and she listened. I then used my hands to point to my mouth hoping she would understand to take the tape off and she did. She began taking the tape off of my mouth slowly and she didn't get to finish because the man snatched me from the ground and put me over his shoulder again.

I thought that getting everyone in the shop riled up enough for us to get kicked out was a good idea so that I could go back to my apartment and search for any clues leading up to Chelsea but clearly.. I was wrong.

The guy started latching himself onto the grappling hook and with the tape not coming off I began panicking myself. I started wiggling my right hand loose from the magical rope and I finally got it out but at this time it was too late since we were already on our way across the rope when I snatched the tape off of my mouth.

"Melanie come in!" I shouted from outside the window.

Melanie came flying into the room, with her feet not touching the ground she tackled the guy that had me , making me fall from the grappling hook in mid air towards the ground to my death.

Everything was in slow motion, I could see the ground getting closer and closer. The concrete was ready to kiss my face in a deadly passion that I wasn't ready for. Then I suddenly felt arms around my waist and I saw nothing but darkness.

When my vision came back to me I began seeing dust , rubble, and glass everywhere. Somebody had saved me from falling in mid air. They must have tackled me and we crashed into another building on the street, but who and how? I should be dead and so should whoever saved me.

When the dust began clearing I could see the silhouette of a man in front of me standing up.

"Who are you?" I whispered.

The dust finally cleared completely and I could see who he was. I was in complete and utter shock as he turned around to face me, it was like I was seeing a ghost.

"How are you here and alive?"
