"PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE DON'T! I SWEAR! I KNOW NOTHING!!" Ella shrieked and took a few wide steps backward; she couldn't shout because she was shocked at the loud cry. Her heartbeat increased rapidly. She was frozen for a moment although, she took hold of herself and quickly bent down, her hand went to her chest and she tried to calm herself. After a few seconds, she raised her head towards the direction where the voice came, she squeezed her eyes to see and she saw them. She pulled her phone up and started recording. She spotted five men surrounding a man who was kneeling and there was another man at the side leaning on a bus. The man kneeling was cuffed in his hands and leg with a piece of clothing. The man that was leaning on the bus pulled himself up and he walked closer to the man. "Tony, you know I don't like doing dirty work outside yet you made me come out to this shitty place just to find you?" He bent down on a knee and looked down at the man. Surprisingly, he looked nice. 'Nah! Ella, he isn't!!' His black hair was pulled into a bun. "I-I know sir... But I swear, I don't know where it is..." The kneeling man cried out to the bun-man. The bun-man chuckled, stood up on his feet and threw his face away, he smiled. He looked down at the kneeling man. His smile dropped and he held the man by his collar, pulled him up until his feet were not touching the floor again. Ella gasped silently and she flew her hands to her mouth to shut herself. - "WHERE?!" "I SWEAR, I DON'T KNOW!!" The man screamed with blood in his mouth. The bun-man chuckled and pulled a gun out of his back pocket. He pushed the gun on the man's forehead, "you wanna die?" The man cried, "I swear on my father's name, I don't know where it is." "I don't care about your daddy's issues," he pulled himself up and pointed the gun at the man. He was about to pull the trigger. "No! No! DON'T DO IT!!" Ella jumped out with her palms stretched out at them. 'Well. Shit!'
