Malu
"The Lady Dragon demands I go home to take a rest," Damian told me when he comes out of the patient's room, running a hand through his hair, "I will be back for our scheduled appointment, so just watch over her. All of you be on guard at all times while I'm gone. If there's something wrong, call me, got it?"
"Yes sir," I answer him.
He just gives me a tired smile and walks away from me, heading to the entrance of the hospital. From here, I can see Fabio look confused when Damian takes the car key from him and gets into the car, driving off speedily. Fabio watches as his boss drives off and I turn to the 4 guys guarding the door to Alyssa's room.
"Be on guard boys," I state before walking inside to see Alyssa sleeping peacefully.
I quietly sit down in the chair beside her bed and sigh when I feel my phone vibrate in my jeans. Pulling it out, I smile when I see it was my best friend Zbelle calling. I answer the call, walking out of the room so I don't wake Alyssa up. Fabio meets me outside, seeing that I was on the phone. I turn away from him and walk off to the ladies room.
"I'm so worried about you," Zbelle was saying as I stare at myself in the restroom mirror, "Its getting very dangerous. You need to come back home or else something happens to you."
Rolling my eyes with a smile, I told her, "Belle, relax. I love dangerous. This is all I've ever known."
She sighs, "We just miss you."
"Of course you do," I laugh, "I'll come back home after a few more days."
"How are you and Fabio? Is he still being a confusing jerk?" Zbelle questions curiously.
"We're fine," I answer, glancing at the door when a girl comes in to use the restroom. She looks me up and down before walking into the stall behind me. I ignore her, washing my hands and being careful not to drop that was between my shoulder and head.
"That's it? Just fine?" Zbelle said and I just hum in response.
I gasp in shock when I feel something sharp go through my neck, realizing that the girl had just pushed a syringe through my sternocleidomastoid. She takes my phone, hanging up as I stare at her in shock. I couldn't move and just fell on the floor, wincing in pain. My neck stings so bad. Before I fall asleep because of what she injected into me, I felt her drag me into the restroom stall with a smirk.
FABIO
"Where's Malu?" I ask the 4 guards after coming out of Alyssa's room.
She went to the ladies room and hasn't been back for awhile now. I had something to tell her. It's probably something she's always wanted to hear from me. I'm ready to tell her everything now.
I just have to find her.
"She's not back yet," One of the guys said and I sigh, heading in the direction of the ladies room.
I stand outside, smiling when the door opens but it disappears when I realize it wasn't her. The girl awkwardly smiles back at me before scurrying off in the other direction. I continue standing there for about 10 minutes but no one has walked out. Sighing, I decide to call her phone and stare at the door weirdly when I hear her phone ringing inside, but she doesn't answer.
I groan impatiently, pushing the door open to find the restroom empty. The phone keeps ringing behind a closed stall.
"Malu?" I call her but no answer. "Answer me, if you don't- I'm peaking."
Still no answer from her.
Kicking the door open, I went tense when I found Malu sitting on the toilet bowl all wrapped up in tape. I feel for her pulse, sighing in relief. She's alive.
I try to wake her up but she doesn't open her eyes. Pulling my phone out, I try to warn the others. If Malu is like this, the enemy must be in here.
"Hello-"
"Protect Alyssa right now!"
"Sir, she's currently inside the ultrasound room now-"
"Its not time yet, you fucking idiots! Protect her. I swear, I'll kill you both if something happens to our Lady Dragon!" I roar over the phone, taking the tape off of Malu hastily. I notice her neck was a bit red. My blood runs cold, worried so much for her.
I come to tell you how I feel and instead I find you like this I thought. If she could open her eyes, she'll see the worry and fear in my eyes. Fear of losing her. I do not want to lose her.
I carry Malu out of the restroom, running us back to the room to find Damian rushing to the room where the guards just came out, looking nervous. I place Malu down beside Lilith who looked worried as all of us start to search for Alyssa whose no longer in the room.
"Guards! Search for Patient 22 right now! Put the hospital on lockdown now!" Lilith ordered her guards with authority in her voice.
She kneels down beside Malu, assessing her neck before standing up again, "She'll be okay. Nurse Ellie, attend to this young lady." A nurse rushes over and I help her get Malu into a wheel chair. I take one look at Malu before rushing off to find Alyssa.
The hospital is huge, it would take long to find Alyssa. Damian was furious now as he searches along with the guards who failed to keep an eye on our Lady Dragon.
"Rooftop," Lilith tells me when we look at the security camera footage on her computer,"They are on their way up to the roof by stairs. Come on!"
Lilith goes for the elevator and I run up the stairs, hearing Damian who was way ahead of me.
By the time we made it to the rooftop, the helicopter was already taking off. Damian groans when the enemy shot him in the arm and I take cover before aiming at the helicopter. I can see Alyssa sitting inside beside a man who was smirking. I run over to Damian, protecting him, but he shoved me aside, walking with his gun aimed at the helicopter. He kept shooting directly at it and we all watch as one of the bad guys fall out of the helicopter, falling down on the floor right in front of us. I shoot him in the buttocks when he tries to shoot us. Damian was breathing heavily as he watched the helicopter fly off, not even trying to save their guy.
"Fuck!" Damian shouted in anger, he looked so mad that I didn't want to be standing there. He snaps his eyes at me, coming for me as I take a step back, "I told you to fucking be on guard! If we don't get her back, you and all the guys will be killed. "
"Boss, I tried-"
He kicks me in the chest, making me fall backwards just as Lilith arrives, rushing to help me up. Without turning around, Damian shoots the enemy again, trying to control himself, "Take him to the basement in 15 minutes. "
With that, Damian left and I couldn't help but feel like a failure. I failed my boss. I couldn't protect our Lady Dragon and we're not sure where she is being taken.
The enemy cries in pain as I stand up, knowing just what to do with him.
