Web Of Lies (Finished)

The Cave And Fire Flies

Before we begin, this chapter idea was given by BiancaRosenburrg....So yeah, give credit to her

I blinked at the gun in my face, not exactly sure how to react. So I stared at it with wide eyes, not daring to move.

"How did you get in here?" Ryo asked cautiously. He was afraid that he would make the assassin mad and he would pull the trigger, so he was going to be careful of what he said.

The assassin raised his head up toward Ryo. "I am an assassin." He said quietly. "I do not tell my secrets to the world." He lowered his head again back toward me, and I gulped. "You girl...Stand up straight." I did as I was told. "Good. Now...You know Shiela, and Starletta...Correct?"

I nodded my head, but it was ever so slighty. "Yes." I said.

"That's what I thought." The assassin fell silent, and I guessed he was planning out a way to nab me and my friends and leave. "All right..." He finally said after a while. "Come with me...Now."

At the last second the assassin removed his gun to step back. And Ryo instantly took action. He dove forward and slapped the gun out of his hand, then tackled him to the ground. I gasped, and was about ho help, but Ryo called out, "Run!" And spat in the guy's mask.

I just nodded, not sure what else to do, and ran away as fast as I could. I wasn't sure where to go...How about the deck? All right...I entered the elevator and pressed a button that said "Deck" and it took me there.

I was greeted by an ungodly sight...Blood was splattered everywhere. I wondered what happened? No corpse was here....

I was lost in thought for a few minutes, but suddenly I felt someone shove me. I stumbled forward a few feet feet, and then I landed face first into the ship's deck right in front of the blood. I freaked out and quickly got to my feet, shivering.

I heard someone laugh, so I turned around...Oh. That stupid assassin must be desperate.

"You will die here!" He hissed at me. He pulled out a small dagger and came charging toward me. Once he was close enough, he swiped the dagger at me. I smoothly dodged all of his attacks, since I dealt with daggers myself. As I did so, I backed up, just in case.

"Payton! Be careful!"

I kept backing up, but we both, (as in the assassin as well) looked over. Ryo was running toward me, holding his bleeding shoulder. I clenched my teeth together, glaring at the assassin. "You hurt him!" I growled.

The assassin turned back to me. "Don't worry. You won't have to deal with it in a moment." He said.

I blinked. Wait what? And before I could move or anything, that stupid assassin swiped at me one more time. I thought I was going to be sly and move, but I was at the edge of the deck. I struggled to keep my balance, until the assassin swiped at me one last time. Of course out of instinct, I dodged, and fell.

I screamed out as I fell. But this time...I was actually going to grab something. So my arms flailed forward, and lucky for me I grabbed the edge of the ship.

As I dangled there, I heard Ryo yell at the top of his lungs, "JAX!!!! LAND THE SHIP!!!!" Then there was a few grunts and the sound of punching and kicking.

I gulped and attempted to pull myself up. I couldn't. I was too weak. Damn it!

I felt the ship lowering itself. I do hope that Jax could see me...Hopefully he would send Shiela or Star or someone to help me...My hands were starting to hurt from holding on so tightly.

I sihed with relief when someone's hand was on mine. Shiela's head popped out from the top and she smiled at me. "You're always getting yourself in trouble." She said.
