Hey guys! I'm gonna ty and get at least 1,000 words this chapter. I just want to tell you in advance that it may be a little longer than all my other chapters.


Erica's POV


Ben looked like he was about to scream, in anger. His fists clenched to the point his knuckles turned white. His eye started twitching, and his eyebrows furrowed, and one more thing tipped me off. 

He screamed, "What the hell do you want Joshua!!" I actually think I got scared for a fraction of a second, but it seemed that Joshua did too. 

"I thought I made it obvious when I came to your room 3 hours ago." he said, regaining his composure.

"Apparently not." I stated.

"But... I even had Dane use your mothers phone to get you to go to StarBucks." he replied.

"Yeah, well. Ben saw right through that."

"And you know what? I'm tired of him. So now he's going to pay. With death!" Joshua snapped as he shot a blast out of his mechanical arm. Joshua's officially gone psycho. Thankfully me and Ben got out of the way before it hit us. Although... the StarBucks down the street got destroyed. Joshua kept firing, giving us no time to stop.

"Josh! Let's just talk this over!" Ben yelled at the top of his lungs. 

"Sure! Let's go talk over some Ice cream shall we?" It was only then I realized what was going on. Ben was stalling so that I could pull out my gun and fire at Joshua.  

"Yeah, sounds much more delightful than having to talk while being shot at by a psychopath with 2 mechanical arms." Ben joked. That was when I pulled out my gun and started to shoot at Joshua. As all 5 bullets I shot hit the sides of his stomach he yelped in pain. Still, I needed to reload, because it was hard to hit him where I wanted when his bullet proof arms were swinging all over the place. 

"Erica! Keep doing that please! I can't pull out my gun right now because I'll have to stop moving!"

"HA! You think you can stop me!?... Your an idiot! Operation: Phantom Menace will prevail!" (Get the reference, lol?) Operation: Phantom Menace, what? I looked at Ben and he shook his head in response. He had no idea what it meant. 

"Erica?" Ben whispered. "Shoot please... we're gonna die if you don't. I need you right now." I immediately had this weird feeling inside me that made me want to shoot. So I did. This time I got the side of his face 3 times and scraped both of his ears. 

"That better?" I joked.

"It's good enough for now." he whispered. "Let's get outta here." I giggled, except. I'm not under the truth serum, so Ben gave me a confused look that only made me giggle again. "Are you okay?"

"Yes."

"You sure? Cus there is no way you giggled without the truth serum. I think you're sick... after this mission we're talking you to the doctor.

"No you're not!"

"Oh yes I am." I can't believe that I pouted after he said that.

Joshua's POV


"Well, well, well. Look who we have here." I said, I was about to die of laughter because I caught both of them off guard.

Then Erica asked Ben, "What do we do about that?" 

Ben looked like he was about to scream, in anger. His fists clenched to the point his knuckles turned white. His eye started twitching, and his eyebrows furrowed, and one more thing tipped me off.

He screamed, "What the hell do you want Joshua!!" Erica looked scared, but to be honest, I was too. 

"I thought I made it obvious when I came to your room 3 hours ago."

"Apparently not." Erica stated.

"But... I even had Dane use your mothers phone to get you to go to StarBucks." I replied.

"Yeah, well. Ben saw right through that."

"And you know what? I'm tired of him. So now he's going to pay. With death!" I snapped as I shot a blast out of one of my mechanical arms. 

"Josh! Let's just talk this over!" Ben yelled at the top of his lungs.

"Sure! Let's go talk over some Ice cream shall we?" 

"Yeah, sounds much more delightful than having to talk while being shot at by a psychopath with 2 mechanical arms." Ben joked. As he said this Erica pulled out her gun and started to shoot at me. If I'm correct, all 5 bullets hit the side of my stomach. That can be taken care of later.

"Erica! Keep doing that please! I can't pull out my gun right now because I'll have to stop moving!" Ben yelled.

"HA! You think you can stop me!?... Your an idiot! Operation: Phantom Menace will prevail!" Although I got to say this, I didn't get to dodge the 5 bullets that were shot at me. 3 of them hit the sides of my face, and the other 2 scraped my ears. Damn it hurts. I tried to follow them but when I did I only fell down on my face. So, I screamed for Dane, and fell unconscious 2 seconds later.

Dang it! I was at 900 words! So unfair. *virtually pouts*. Anyways, I hope you liked that chapter. I'll try to post the next one as soon as possible, thanks!
