"They're both stubborn and it's complicated."

Katherine's Pov

"For goodness sake, you guys, wake up!" Amelia screams and I groan

I bring the blanket up and pull it over my head. Ashton holds me tighter and presses his chest flat against my back.

"Katherine Carleigh Amber Hale! Get your ass up, you're going into the biggest fight in your life and you're running late for fucks sake."

My eyes burst wide open when Amelia uses my middle names, she only says my full name when she's upset. I slowly sit up and stare at her, my eyes wide like saucers.

"Melia.. you use my full name-"

"You wouldn't wake up and I know you hate it when people use your full name." She smirked and I glared at her

She was right, I did in fact hate it. Which is why I never spoke about it or lied about not having a second name or two.

Wild, huh?

"Carleigh Amber, that's adorable," Ashton says as he sits up, rubbing his eyes

I punch his arm and he rubs it while looking at me innocently.

"Don't call me that." I shook my head and got out of bed

I didn't expect Amelia to say my full name for fuck sakes. This was not how I wanted my mission to start, seriously.

Amelia chuckled as I exited the room and slammed the door shut. I muttered curse words as I entered Max's room, he along with Aled looked at me as I marched into the bathroom.

"Ka-"

I grumbled "I'll be out in a sec" before closing the door. He nodded slowly.

Once the door was closed, I began to strip and hopped in the shower. I turned on the warm water and stood under the shower head as it poured over my body.

Before it got too hot, I turned on the cold water as well.

Who does he think he is saying my name so carelessly? I mean, at least ask me first.

God! He was annoying as fuck but it still somehow made me smile. I just want to finish showering and get ready, we'll probably leaving in a few minutes.

"It's time to go."

Ashton announced as he entered the room, I gently put Alex down and stood up. Everyone in the room went quiet and I cleared my throat before walking over to the table.

I took the guns that laid there and strapped it against my waist. Two or three knives were tied to my both of my thighs.

I let my skirt down and lifted up my top, revealing my stomach. I took the glock 19, 9mm compact semi-automatic pistol and strapped it against my stomach.

"Ready?" Ashton asked as he loaded his pistol

I nodded and took out a rifle that laid besides the bed. It was the M1903 Springfield, the United States Rifle, Caliber .30-06, Model 1903. It's an old gun that was primarily used during the first half of the 20th century.

Matthew has a submachine gun, it's a magazine-fed firearm, usually smaller than other automatic firearms. It fires pistol-caliber ammunition.

The MP5 is a 9×19mm Parabellum machine gun and by the grin on Matthews face, it would probably be one of his favorites.

Then he took out an assault rifle and I squealed as I ran over to him, grabbing it out of his hand.

"I'm taking this for me!" I yelled before walking back to Ashton

He just rolled his eyes and took out another one.

This was the AK-47 which is officially known as the Avtomat Kalashnikov, its a gas operated 7.62×3mm assault rifle.

Holding it in my hand reminded me of my childhood. I'd always take it out on missons but I wouldn't really use it. Only on special occasions of course, I just liked having it on me.

"Let's get going!"

I looked at Amelia who stood with my brothers, they smiled at me and showed a thumbs up. I trusted them with my life so I knew Amelia and everyone else was going to be okay.

We had everything planned out and so far, it was going well. Their car was ready and it was time for us to separate once again.

But this time, it won't be long and we will all be reunited. Nobody gets left behind and I will make sure nobody is killed.

We will be injured but not killed.

The only people dying today is Joey's men. We're killing them and Joey before rescuing the other hostages. I'm not entirely sure where they're being kept but it shouldn't be too far.

Joe liked having everything in arms length or walking distance. We'll find them and when we do, I'll get someone to help them escape.

They won't be going to where Max them are because there might be a spy there. So, I'll have them transported to another safe place.

Joey will be going down today or tomorrow. I can't really confirm whether or not we'll find him today because he tends to move around a lot.

But when we do find him, we're calling the police as well. Actually, we have them on stand by incase anything goes wrong.

Plus, we're going to put him behind bars. Nothing could possibly go wrong? I mean, we're going to lose some men, I know that but I'm hoping it's not a lot.

Everyone has a family but they signed up for this. They knew the consequences but they insisted on coming with to help me.

I'll always be grateful, they could've been at home sleeping or something but here they are, helping me. God. I want to cry, tears of joy of course.

"You ready?" Ashton asked as he started the car

He placed his hand on top of mine and looked at me. I nodded at him while grinning, he chuckled as he started driving.

We're got this.
