Chapter 55

    ★★BELLA★★

   I drifted a bit from where he was, sniffing my nose. Braden focused his attention more on driving now, as he saw I wasn't willing to tall more with him. He was driving on a normal speed so as not to attract the other thugs finding us out.

    A funny birdy tone started, i think the phone belongs to one of the thugs. "Jayden." I called, trying my best not to look at the phone.

     "Yes?"

     "I think someone's calling."
He searched both men's pocket recklessly and picked out the phone, hissed before answering and putting it on loud speaker.
      "Marcus, are you mad? You are driving the wrong way!!! Did you forget everything because of alcohol?!" The person on the other side, yelled non-stop.

    My heart can't stop pounding for the fact that we all are dead. I starred directly into Jayden's eyes, 'what should we do?' This is the only interpretation to my looks. He purposely hung the call up.
    "Why did you do that!" I yelled at him, "these men will get annoyed And want to see why we hanged up, we will be killed for killing both men!!"
    "Shhhh... Let me think" he sleep his hair with his hand before saying "Brad, I want to drive, you come to the back seat."  Braden pretended like he heard nothing.
      "Hey! Did you suddenly go dumb?"

Braden turned to him "I can't let you because your brains got blocked. What the f**k do you think you're saying? So you finally kill me and Bella?"
Jayden pounced on him and held the steering, "we have to go faster, so they loose track on us."  The both started to struggle with the steering wheel with both constantly punching each other with curse words. The car was bumping to a lot of things, Loosing control. Am i the only one seeing our doom?

      "Stop! Stop it both of you!" I yelled at them, but my timing is too late.
     A small car drove in front of the van and blocked our way. With half a man's body out the window of the car. Braden stopped the car movement
     "Let me run this bastard over." Jayden said.

     "No no, don't kill another person, I don't want to see another blood. Please...!" I begged with tears dropping from my eyes, all the frustration I feel, the way I feel stranded.
  "Bella, lay flat on the floor" Jayden yelled. I put my hands over my head to cover my head while their firing bullets still continuously sounded in my ears. "Ahh..." I screamed.

     He held my left hand in his and rolled over, been so close to me. "Don't be scared OK? Just... Just close your eyes tightly." In the next moment the car tires inflated, and it went down as it was all four tires. The windows are no exceptions, they all fell apart into shard.

     After all the firing stop, smoke was coming out of the hole made by the bullets. Jayden picks a bloody dagger, "just,  don't scream. I have to save both of us OK?"

      He called Gabriel, the number was unable to connect. "Shit!" He exclaimed. "Bella..." He whispered in my ear "they will come in to check on us now, do as I say OK? Don't be weak, so we leave here alive."

    He Cleaned the dagger Then gave it to me. "Baby, don't hesitate to save your life OK? You worth more than anything to me. I love you" He kissed my cheek. The car door opened, I closed my eyes tightly... If i have to doe, i don't want to see how i get shot.

     "Ok, OK, you got me!" I heard a voice with a chuckle. Brad went down with his hands over his head.

     Jayden opened the front seat passenger door, "Bella, run far away. I will find you, don't hesitate OK?" He nods at me.
      "And you?"
      "Just leave, I won't die..." He said.

     I crawl out of the car before running as fast as I can into the bushes. One of the men chase after me.

      Seeing him behind me and so close, my heart starts pounding a lot as I run, I know i can't keep up for so long, he's definitely going to catch me. I turned to embrace him, since I'm holding a dagger, I promise not to be weak, he ran so fast, i pierce the dagger into his stomach, panting hard. I just stabbed a man!!!

       He was holding my throat, squeezing me with all the anger he had as he felt so Much pain, "Ah...hh" I try to speak as all the pain gathered in my head. "Ah...hh!!!"

      Two bullets were fired at his back... So much blood flooded from his body, he knelt down, looked at the sky before he totally lost balance and dropped lifelessly with his head facing the floor, and the dagger deeper.

  Jayden gaze was fixed at me he sigh and yelled "lay flat on the floor so, you stay alright" before running away with the gun.

      A gun war started, sounds I can't calculate, i can only Jayden running around the van and Gabriel with some other people  present.
I don't know how long it lasted. When the place was finally calm, I opened my eyes, raised My head and looked around. Two pair of shoes standing in front of me, it should be Jayden.

I looked up, it's not Jayden, some stranger face I don't know. I keep staring at his face in confusion, I don't know if to run or what are his actual aims. He has a straight and emotionless face, I don't know who he is or which side he is on.

   About to speak, the strange man dragged my hair making me rise then put a cloth over my face.

      "Bella! Bella!" Is this last voice calling my name I hear before I pass out.
