Darkness Returns

Chapter 10

Borders

Adel worked hard to get where she was right now. The Commander of her own gang. She started small in school, then after school she took over the school and recruited all the students that were willing. Mind you, Lloyd used to be in that school. Adel used to be a really good student. Top of the class, but after her parents found out they got mad. She hadn't spoken to them since. It wasn't her fault she was sent to an all boys school for bad boys. Of course it would rub off on her.

At that point in time she sat on a bike watching one of her comrades setting fire to the dry bushes outside. Random fires within that piece of crap town wasn't unusual.

"We gonna tell the owner?" A guy asked next to her. She turned slowly to look at him. He had a snarky smile on his face, she knew what he was implying.

"I said I would reward him. Death is a release, not a punishment." She told him. They shared a sadistic look,

It didn't take long for the owner and his wife to wake up and run for the window.

"Adel you bitch!" He yelled out.

"No no...shouldn't you be on your knees begging for help?" She didn't even move to help them. But she did smile and continued to watch.

Kairi had been so tired when she went to bed. She didn't remember her head hitting the pillow. She did smell the smoke. She sat up and looked around the room for a moment before her eyes adjusted and she took a deep breath. She started to cough.

"Dad! Papa!" She cried out. Zane automatically online and looked around.

"Cole, get up." Zane shoved him. He stood up and pulled on his shoes.

"Five...Five more minutes. Promise." he never did as he promised. He sat up when he heard the crackling, and smelled the air.

"What the hell?" Cole jumped up pulling on his shoes too. Zane had Kairi in his arms peeking out the door.

"Theirs fire all over the stairs. We won't be able to get down." He turned to look out the window realizing there were bikers everywhere.

"We jump, and make a break for the driller." Cole kicked the window and yelled. "Jump!" Zane pulled Kairi tightly to him and made a run for the Driller. They climbed inside and turned around. Zane gasped seeing Coles arms behind his back.

Adel smiled up at Zane. Kairi struggled with Zane trying to get to Cole.

"Look at that would you...an unopened pop can. Would you mind opening it for me Goober." A guy with goggles on held up a rocket launcher.

"No!" Cole yelled trying to pull away from the vengestone chains. But he wasn't able to do even that. He watched as the rocket launcher fired and hit the driller. Bursting it into millions of tiny flaming pieces.

"Oh dear...it would seem the pop can explode. To man...the buy will be pleased." She motioned for them to throw Cole into the garage. It wasn't like they needed him anyways.

Cole coughed up more soot as he ran through the house. There was fire all around him. He had only one chance left. He threw open the door to the garage and climbed into the studibaker, and crashed through the wall on the other side. He hated damaging such a nice car. Actually he was pretty sure Nya would get pissed at him, But he was pissed. He needed to regroup with the others...he needed to tell them that Zane, and Kairi were gone.
