The plan was simple

The plan was simple. We would go inside, get Lenny and leave. We were hoping that there wouldn't be any interruptions or complications, but nobody always gets what they want.

To be on a safer side, Kelly has handed us all weapons to defend ourselves. Jordan had his knuckles that he trusted the most. Brianna had a knife and I had a pepper spray.

It was stupid to carry just a spray, but it was decided that I would always have someone by my side to fight. Since my wound hadn't healed completely, nobody wanted me to indulge myself in violence.

We travelled in two cars. Brianna had picked up Jordan and Kelly and Blake were with me.

Currently, we were parked in front of the abandoned destination, studying it carefully. Blake had his hand on my waist and didn't leave me for a second. Normally, I'd call it possessive behaviour, but he was just worried of me getting hurt again.

"I'm entering through the back door, Brianna and Jordan are taking the broken window to enter and Val and Blake are using the front door," Kelly revised. "Everyone will turn on their earpiece the moment we enter and keep ourselves updated. No matter what happens, our main goal is to get Lenny out safe. We don't fight unless the situation requires us to. Okay?"

"Are we sure we are not walking into a trap?" Jordan asked.

"Oh, this is a trap," Brianna scoffed as if it was obvious knowledge. "Say your goodbyes. We might not see each other again."

"Brianna!" I exclaimed. "Can you be a little optimistic? Just a little."

"What?! I'm being realistic. We were close to losing you, god knows how many people are in there right now, waiting for us." She replied.

"That is why we don't go venturing alone. We might be separated from each other, but we will all stay on the same level," Kelly informed.

"Kells, I don't like you being alone. I've got Blake and Brianna's got Jordan. Can't you just join us?" I asked.

"Honey, I've carried out a lot of missions alone. I will be fine. Don't worry," she assured me.

"But seriously though, say your goodbyes," Brianna interjected and walked in my direction to hug me.

"We will all come out of here alive and with Lenny," I stated.

"As much as I want to stay here and listen to you two bicker, we are losing time. Let's go," Jordan said and pulled Brianna away from me. She dramatically wiped imaginary tears and walked away with Jordan.

"I'll see you soon, Jordie!" I yelled and he just waved and continued walking.

"Take care of my friend, Mr. Bodyguard," Brianna shouted back.

"See you in a while?" Kelly asked and squeezed my hand.

"Yes," I smiled and she walked away too.
