"Cassandra you know as well as I do ,they will come for them and they won't stop until they have them. "
"Rick you expect us to give them up ." she responded harshly
"No but we need to buy them more time" I saw my wonderful girls sleeping in their strollers knowing that their best shot at surviving was for them to run that's when i saw my wife's face when she realized what i was going to do. "why aren't you packing"? I didn't know how to respond "Rick no you can't sacrifice yourself please don't do this" I couldn't look her in the eyes. If I looked I knew she would change my mind
"Rick they need a father, Rick please. Look at me okay we're all going to make it out". "no the girls come first I'm sorry but I wouldn't be able to live with myself knowing that the girls would be in harm's way you know I'm right Cass" I lightly kissed her forehead and she and she leaned in to me quietly sobbing
"Dada Dada" I looked at my little warrior just when I thought my heart couldn't break enough I picked her up and gave her a kiss on forehead her little giggle was bouncing off the walls that gave me confront knowing what I was fighting for I looked into her beautiful blue eyes and whispered "no matter what anybody tells you daddy loves both you and your sister okay." I put her down and gave Aria a kiss "my little trouble maker don't drive your mother and your sister crazy okay"
It seemed like she heard me looking at her little smirk in her sleep who knew at 8 month year old can be such a handful after our brief goodbyes they got loaded up in the car I gave Cass one last goodbye and watched as they peeled out from the driveway to the main road.
I enter the house and got set up i got into position and sat in my comfortable chair and count the seconds 3, 2, 1 BAMM the door flew open and 3 men walked in all of them were wearing matching suits the men with purple eyes looked around the room until he met mine he finally spoke "Ahh richard lovely seeing you here how's the wife and kids" "Their good" I smirked . " where exactly are they" ? "safe" " listen little warlock do not toy with me where are the children ."
"Like i said before safe but in a minute you won't be " i push over the candle and In an instance the house caught fire and could hear the defining screams of the warlocks victims one of the men dropped right in front of me half of his face was gone but expression shows pure terror all i could do was smirk. The other man with blond hair laid dead but his body was faced away from me
shit were the one with purple eyes is scanned the room and saw he was heading towards the steps i walked over and grabbed him in chokehold "oh no buddy you came into my home looking for trouble were going to finish it" i lean back and me and the little henchmen fell into the flames that's why i'm a badass.
