Disclaimer: Ok, you all already know.
? POV.
I burst into the dark office again. The large man sitting behind the dark desk, smirked, and beckoned me to come forward. I did. He pushed a leather package across to me, I picked it up and opened it, revealing a black and silver handgun...he grinned viciously.
"Times up."
Buttercups POV
I went into my room, it was the last night, my time would officially be up in five hours, 3:00, in the morning, and I was preparing for it.
To tell you the truth I had been a little nervous maybe scared. What if my plan didn't work? What if they were smarter then I thought? What if-
My room door flew open, Bubbles came running in, her eyes wild with fear. I raised my eyebrows at her.
"Bubbles, what wrong?" I asked slipping on a black turtle neck sweater.
She out stretched her hand, "LOOK, this was stabbed outside of your door." she was shaking.
Poor girl these past few day's have really done a number on her, I looked don at her hand...my eyes widened.
In her hand was another dagger, only this one was was bronze colored with red jewels in it. There was a golden coin hanging from it, I picked it up to examine it closer.
There was a messaged engraved in the coin, it said:
'5 more hours and your time'll be up...you know what that means.'
'Bloodshed'
I grasped the stupid dagger and looked at Bubbles, "Listen Bubbles, ignore this, all of this, it's nothing their just trying to scare us, but it's not going to work."
She looked down at her shuffling feet, "Oh I don't know, maybe it's working...a little" She mumbled.
I sighed, not what I needed to hear. Blossom come in a second later with a determine look , I sighed again. I knew why she had that look.
"Buttercup, I don't want you to do this, it's to dangerous...you could get hurt or worse," She said firmly.
I shook my head and pulled on some black flat boots.
"Blossom," I grunted shoving my foot into a boot, "We've been through this, I'm going and you can't stop me...besides if I don't they'll come here and kill all of us anyway." She sighed and shook her red clad head.
"Oh Buttercup...I...please." She pleaded sadly.
I stood up and looked at my self in my full body mirror. I was dressed in black from head to toe. So you couldn't see me in the dark. I slipped on some black fingerless gloves and a black hoodie to cover my face then I turned to my frightened sisters.
I gulped trying to hide my own fear, "I'll be back, you'll see." I stepped over and hugged them both tight.
"I know you will Buttercup." Bubbles wept on my shoulder.
"Blossom let me go and looked at me hard I looked back, "I still think you shouldn't go...but that still won't stop you...be careful Buttercup, no unnecessary risks...please." She hugged me again.
After we let go, I reached under my bed and pulled out a black and green gun. Bubbles shuddered at it, She hated guns. I slipped it in my pocket along with the three daggers I had, hey might as well put them to good use.
I headed for my front door, I looked back at my sad siblings, "I'll be careful and be back before you even notice I'm gone, you'll see."
They nodded slowly.
I grabbed the red wrapped box from my coffee table and headed out closing the door behind me.
I let out a shaky breath knowing that this could be the last time I aw my sisters...i shook my head from those thoughts instantly burning them out, no time for that, I had a job to do...
I marched out of my apartment building and started for Towns-Ville bay...wishing I could take my bike with me, but that was the opposite of stealth and I didn't need that.
It was dark and there was a slight chill in the air. Creepy sound came from everywhere, it seemed like the whole city was dead, but I was trained enough to know reality from imagery.
After at least a 2 and a half mile walk I finally made it at the docks. I found my way through the dark to the appointed one. I dropped my box there and quickly tiptoed back. Then I made it look as if I left, when I was actually hiding behind a large wooden boathouse. The moon was only half tonight so it was easier to hid in the shadows.
Ignoring the hammering of my heart I took my position and waited...
I watched as gigantic shadows of huge boats floated and rippled silently in the dark. The silver black water swished a little from the small breeze that blew from time to time, bringing the smell of sea salt with it. Besides that everything was quiet.
I waited and waited..until when I was abut ready to give up, the clock tower rang "4:30, I held my breath and decided to move a little farther down, but then a shadow swished past causing me to freeze.
I held my breath as a tall cloaked figure walked stealthily up the sandy road and right to the dock where I left the box.
He looked around trying to seem inconspicuous, then quickly bent down and shoved the package under his jacket. I narrowed my eyes and stepped closer, my foot touched a creaky board making me and the figure freeze, my muscles tensed up until he finally turned and started for the road again.
Letting out a sigh of relief I quickly and quietly followed behind, making sure I stayed far enough behind so he wouldn't detect me.
I slipped from shadow to shadow, having no idea where he could possibly be going. I began to worry, the sun would be up soon...Finally he stopped in front of a large metal fence, looking behind him he punched in the code. The gates opened and he slipped inside. I jumped loser and rolled in right before the gate slammed shut.
I followed him down a long empty parking lot, there was a huge office building in the middle the sign said...i squinted my eyes, 'BD corp'?
BD Corp...never heard of it before...weird. No time for that now, I continued to follow the freak inside, making sure he didn't see me . Once inside I had to walk even more quietly, if that was possible, because every little sound you made could be heard like an explosion for miles. The entire place was huge and tiled, so sound could travel far.
I look around trying to get used to the darker area, I saw the figure go through a door, I followed suit. I t looked like a storage room...why would he need to go in a...
My thoughts were shattered as large hands clasped over my mouth and grabbed my arm, pinning it behind my back. I struggled against the grip but it only tightened.
Dammit I was caught, on instinct my free hand reached for my pocket where my gun was. He saw this and grabbed that arm twisting it behind my back. with his other hand, that had been on my mouth, he reached down my sides and put his own hand in my pocket.
I growled in rage as the touch made me shiver. I tried to get loose again but couldn't he yanked his hand out of my pocket and pulled out one of the daggers, my eyes doubled...oh man, he held it to my neck.
"Don't move...or else." He whispered threateningly in my ear, I was breathing hard.
This was the first time he'd spoken, and I didn't like it. I growled my rage flaring up, and kicked my leg back as far as it would go. I hoped it would hit him good, it did, he let go.
I turned away and grabbed my gun, pointing it straight at him, "Don't move...or else." I smirked darkly.
He held his arms up in defeat then in an instant he swung his whole body low and tried to punch my, I automatically pulled the trigger, it exploded and missed. The freak was out of line...He was gone?
What kind of a coward ran form a fight...I opened the storage door and exited the area watching my back tensely. Well at least I had something to go on now...
Just in that instant something blew up over head sending me sprawling across the tiled surface. I looked up and saw flames bursting out of the upper walls, a few more places exploded, I coughed as smoke started to build.
I had to get out of here...but I had no idea where the out was!
I stumbled half blind hoping I'd find the exit...suddenly I heard loud voices...the words were muffled. I could see shadows up on a metal balcony. I squinted and looked harder. There were two men, one was a big guy and the other was a tall shadow.
The larger man was the one yelling but I couldn't make out what he was saying. Then the big man raised his arm and swiped at the other guys head, knocking him out, sending him over the railing of the balcony straight down into a ring of flames,
I gasped for breath, I needed to get out of here. My eyes began to water. I stumble around losing track of where I was headed.
The next instant I stumble over something, or someone, and landed on the hard, hot ground. I rubbed my eyes and saw the figure, he wasn't moving...I stayed there a second seriously debating if I should leave him there or not...knowing my conscience would never let me live it down, I lifted the man up and draped his heavy body over me.
I stumbled trying to get my balance while coughing violently. Then I began in a direction, hoping it was towards the exit.
Things kept blowing up, the fire was spreading, the smoke was so thick and suffocating that I couldn't feel my own body. A large chunk of burning ceiling came down right in front of me, just missing me. I coughed and went around, it was getting harder to breath by the second.
I gasped and coughed, my vision blurry. My lungs themselves felt like they were on fire. Finally when I was about to collapse, I saw a hint of Grey blue sky. Quickly as I could in my present state, trudged to it.
Almost there...almost there...The building collapsed around my, My mind was focused on that shred of opened space, Almost here...I heaved, I was losing it...I almost...yes! After what seemed like an eternity I broke through into the slightly stuffy but otherwise fresh air.
I gasped for breath, gulping in all I could, my lungs ached, I coughed out the black smoke. I dragged us weakly a little more away from the burning building, behind some tall bushes. Coughing harder, I dropped the body on the ground and fell to my knees, the last thing I remembered seeing was the entire building go up in flames...
OK so there it was, somehow I have this sinking feeling that this story isn't doing so well...but I'll continue because I don't like to leave something undone. But I might be a little later now because of break...we're going to Canada!
'Later y'all'
