*Elijah's POV*
My long pale fingers glided across the keyboard in fluid and fast motions setting in different commands. As my fingers started to move faster I could feel the affects of typing non stop for the past five hours finally catch up to me. But hey when the government is literally a hairs way of finding out that some 28 year old British person is hacking their servers and stealing their secrets you would hurry too. I guess some of you are confused right know you were probably expecting a professional hacker and part time translator that knows more languages then what to do with hacking into the Governments computer, while half of the time was just for fun the other half was for my job working as the worlds number best freelance hacker.
I heard a small beep from my computer telling me I had successfully hacked into their computers. I let my sore hands rest for a few minutes before I stared to stretch all of my sore muscles. Hearing the satisfying pops all throughout my body I dragged my shoeless feet(no socks either I can't stand them.) and made my way towards the kitchen to get my daily dose of doctor pepper.
Not wanting to get up but the urge to drink doctor pepper overcame my tiredness I lifted myself up from my comfy spiny chair and dragged my feet into my small kitchen. My cold fingers clenched around the fridge handle and jerked the door open. Only to be met with disappointment when I saw that my fridge was void of doctor pepper.
"When was the last time I went to the store?... Or outside?" I mentally counted how many days its been since the last time I left my dark apartment and was surprised when the last time I went out was a week ago. Knowing I had to go outside whether I liked it or not I slipped on some flip flops(still hate shoes) my worn old long black pea coat, and last but not least a barely holding itself together wallet. To say the the London afternoon air was as cold as shit was only way to describe how it can get cold here. But seeing as the closest store to my apartment was only two blocks away gave me some much needed determination to move my legs faster. Seeing the store was in my line of site I quickly entered the small store and welcomed the small rush of warm air.
"Elijah dear I haven't seen you for a week how have you been." asked the kind old lady who own the store. "Sorry Granny I've been pretty busy lately, how has business been?"
"Tch I'm not that old you brat, but it's been good, but it seems I'm having a slow day today." she said motioning around since I was the only person in her store.
after talking with Granny for a few minutes i started to make my way around the store getting all the things I needed(aka 50% doctor pepper 25% junk food 25% random crap.) when I put the last thing in my basket I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket alerting me that my manga had updated. I flipped through my phone and saw that the last chapter of Katekyo Hitman Reborn had finally been released. Not wanting to read it here i made my way to the cashier's when the sound of gun fire stopped me in my tracks.
"Shit!" I dialed 911 in my phone and held it against my ear.
"911 what is your emergency?"
"Hello I'm at Granny's home and food store and there are people here with a gun."
"can you tell me how many people there are?" I left my cart where it was and peaked over the island I was hiding behind seeing there was only one person who had their gun pointed at Granny's head.
"Shit there's only one but he has his gun pointed at the store owners head."
"Please remain calm a dispatch of police officers are on there way there."
I tried to stay calm but when I saw that he had his gun pressed against Granny's head and his thumb had started to pull back the hammer getting ready to shoot all sense of safety flew out the window as my phone slipped through my fingers. My legs moved on there on and with speed I only possessed when I was away from danger and not towards it allowed me to tackle the guys side making us tumble down on the hard floor. We wrestled for the gun until I brought my hand back and punched him in the face hard. One of his hands flew to his face as he tried to stop his know disfigured nose from bleeding. I secured the gun in my hand before I dug the muzzle in the guys forehead. Seeing that I had won I turned my head to make sure that Granny was okay, but other than her light shaking I saw no visible wounds on her.
"Granny the police will be here soon for this piece of trash I want you too leave the store and wait for them outside I'll deal with this guy." "Elijah I-I-I don't know to say, I thou-ght I was going to die." tears started to leak out of her eyes as the situation finally started to settle in.
"Trust me Granny if I could shoot this guy right know and not be convicted for murder i would now get-" *stab* pain blossom on the side of neck as a small pocket knife was barried in it. The guy on the floor pulled it out and right then in there i knew I had not even a minute left until I died.
"Shit you bastard!" blood spilled out of my mouth before I pulled the trigger and watched with a sick sense of satisfaction as the bullet entered the mans skull. Seeing that she was no longer in danger I let the gun fall from my grasp and clatter on the floor my sense of everything started to fade as I lost more and more blood. As I fell to the floor I felt the shaking of her hands as she tried to stop the bleeding but it was to late. I could feel the cold numbness seep into my body as my last few seconds started to tick by.
*Drip Drip Drop* a cold wetness touched my cheek as more and more tears rushed down Granny's eyes. Even as I laded there dying I used whatever strength I had left and wiped the tears from her cheek.
"It's not... Your fault *cough* I did it out of my own choice... So you better live you old hag." "Brat *sniff* I told you I'm not that old." although the tears didn't stop a shaky smile appeared on her wrinkled face. I lost all feeling in my hand as it fell away from her face and with it the light in my eyes faded away.
And as everything faded all that was left was silence.
