- 7 - We will survive. We always do

Kiara woke up. A loud noice came from downstairs. She looked around the room but Casey and Crystal were still sleeping.

'Maybe I am just hearing things?'

She turned around and closed her eyes again but it didn't take long for her to hear another sound.
She jumped up and grabbed the nearest object she could find. An actual knife.

'What the hell am I gonna do with this? I'm not gonna stab someone! Why is this even here!'

She put the knife down on the table and shook her head. Casey shouldn't leave those things laying around.

She didn't want to wake anyone up so she quietly opened the door and closed it behind her, trying to be as quiet as possible. It was still pretty dark so she she couldn't see anything and almost tripped over her own feet while trying to get to the stairs. But when she was about to walk down, there was a knife held against her throat.

She let out a shriek and her eyes widened.

"I got you!" The person behind her said.
At first she didn't realize who it was and wanted to cry at the spot but then she realized the voice sounded way too familiar.

It was Ashton's.
"O my god! Ashton! You fucking idiot! It's just me goddamnit!" She screamed.

Ashton's eyes widened as he recognized Kiara's voice.
"Olton? What the hell are you doing here! You should be asleep!" He groaned. He lowered his knife and put it back into his belt. Of all people, he did not expect Kiara to investigate the noise. It could be dangerous and she had no experience in fighting, at all.

Kiara turned around to look at him and rolled her eyes. "You're not asleep so why should I be?" She said with an annoyed expression on her face.

Ashton shook his head and started walking down the stairs. "I am a secret agent who has experience in fighting the biggest baddest crimes, You on the other hand are..." he turned around and narrowed his eyes before checking her out. "You."

"Yeah and you should know that I am a very curious person. That's why I'm here." Kiara said while following him down the stairs.

Ashton shook his head and looked over his shoulder. "Your curiosity is going to kill you someday." He whispered.
He took out his gun and Kiara jumped back.
'I should've stayed in my room..' she thought.

She knew it could be dangerous but she hadn't realized it could be that dangerous. She HATED guns. Always had and always will.

Footsteps were heard from the other side of the room and they were getting louder by the second. Ashton grabbed Kiara and pulled her towards him just before the door opened. They were now both standing with their backs against the wall.

He pulled her just in time because the unknown man walked out with his phone against his ear. She would've been caught if not for him.

"Yes sir, no sir, I will try sir, goodbye sir." The man said. Ashton listened closely. The man didn't sound threatening, at all. Ashton definitely knew he could take him.

He looked over at Kiara and moved his finger over his lips, pretending to zip it.
Kiara rolled her eyes.
'I'm already quiet you idiot.' She thought but nodded at him anyway.

Ashton then peaked around the corner and saw that the man wasn't looking. He took that as an opportunity to jump out and pointed his gun at the man.

"Hands in the air sucker!" He said.
The man dropped his phone and looked at it with a sad face. "Another broken phone." he muttered and sighed.

"Who are you working for and what are you doing here!" Ashton yelled.
The man held his hands up. He looked like he was going to shit his pants. "I don't- I just- I am sorry but you are not going to s- stop us."
