Short Story :

'Shane, if I were you, I would run!' Killian shouted at his friend who had dropped his gun.

Shane loaded his gun and began running again. 'If they catch us, I rather have my gun with me.' He said.

Killian picked up his pace. 'If it wasn't for Lexy, we wouldn't need guns right now.' He yelled irritated thinking he could be relaxing at home if it wasn't for her.

'Guys, would you just shut the fuck up! This isn't anybody's fault.' Roy came between them.

Killians phone rang, he immediately picked up. 'Hello?!'

A familiar voice yelled thought. 'Stop were you are right now and go left!'

Killian watched the others who had also stopped in the middle of the big forest. 'Where are y-?' Killian didn't get the chance to finish his sentence.

'Just fucking do it!' the voice interrupted him loudly.

The other already got it and practically pulled Killian with them in the bushes. The three hid underneath the bunch of leaves and branches suddenly hearing footsteps of stranger running in their direction. 'This way.' One of the recruits yelled.

Three recruits held up at the same place where Killian, Shane and Roy had stood, not knowing their three targets hid in the bushes.

'You think they'll find us?' Roy asked whispery.

Shane noticed the panic in his tone and realize he was shivering as well.

Killians grip on his phone tightened. He suddenly heard a whisper. His call hadn't ended yet. 'Ready..'

One of the recruits watched the bushes as if he could see Killian right there. He tried ti keep his breathing under control but Roy's heavy breath gave away their hiding spot.

'Aim…' the voice continued.

Killian closed his eyes. This was it. They were captured. The recruit came closer.

'Fire!' the voice shouted.

Killian heard three guns shots seeing all three recruits fall down. All three shot with paralyzing darts. Killian and Shane quickly jumped up and started taking their weapons. 'We're gonna need this.' Shane said as he took a shotgun.

Roy slowly stood up. 'I hope this is over soon.' He admitted.

'I saved your asses back there.' All three guys jumped up. Lexy was sitting up in a tree holding a sniper in her hands.

'We had it under control.' Killian lied arrogantly.

Lexy jumped down. 'You three are all just a bunch of idiots!' she rolled her eyes back.

Killian studied her. Apart from the braid in her brown hair, the filth on her face and the rough gloves that revealed her fingertips she wore, she hadn't changed much. 'We don't need your help.' Killian said stubborn.

'Didn't seem like it.' She said. 'So..' she putt her right hand towards the three guys. 'Are we a team again?' she asked grinning.

Killian crossed his arms and sighed irritated by the girls arrogance.

Lexy noticed it and putt her hand on her hip. What an asshole.

Roy hesitated. Shane stepped forward and took her hand. 'Always.'

Both of them smiled. At least someone with a little sympathy.
