I know I have no business starting a NEW story, but I watched Man on Fire the other night and realized that I've never seen the entire movie and I loved, loved, LOVED it! So here is a prologue and you let me know if I should continue it! I am excited to write a story like this and the dials in my mind were winding and I had this idea...so read and let me know what you think!
-Couple on Fire-
Prologue
"Revenge is a meal best served cold!" –Creasy, Man on Fire
My entire body was aching. I couldn't move. I tried opening my eyes but it was too painful. I was lying on my back and I felt…cold. Open your eyes. I struggled to open them and when I did the sun was blazing into my sight. I coughed and then I heard a small whimper. I turned my head towards the sound and I couldn't breathe.
I reached my hand out and I couldn't reach her. My wife. My beautiful wife was face down on the ground, her head was facing me and a dark red pool of blood poured slowly from her mouth.
"No." I said and I tried moving closer to her but it was impossible.
"Lucas." She coughed and hot tears started to pool up in my eyes.
"Brooke, don't you dare leave me." I choked on my words.
"She's gone." She was finally able to move and her hand met mine.
I clasped my hand around her small one.
"It's not over…you and me are going to survive this." Everything started rushing back to me.
"DAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDYYYYYY!" Her screams made my ears bleed.
"Maddy." I whispered because I couldn't move as the blood poured from my chest.
"MADELYN!" My wife screamed into the air.
I looked over and saw her trying to fight off the men who were prying our daughter from her and she fell to her knees as she was shot three times in the chest.
"BROOKE!"
I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer as the memories drained me. Everything went black.
So should I continue this? I want to because I am very excited to explore a darker side to Brooke and Lucas, make them revenge, thrill seekers! Let me know what you think! xoxo
