Chapter Nine
Deadly Force Part 2
(Sean's P.O.V.)
"So, what are you thinking about?" Asked Lexi.
"I was just thinking about you and me." I replied.
"What about us?" Lexi asked.
"Well, me being the best boyfriend in the world and you being the best girlfriend in the world. Plus, yesterday I bought you a gift." I said.
"Sean, you don't have to bu-" She started to talk until I cut her off. I pulled out a dark blue box out of my letterman jacket pocket. "Are you trying to propose to me?"
"No, I wanted to give you this Lexi because you're the best girlfriend ever." I said as I opened the box. She began to stare at the silver promise ring that was sitting in the box. She gasped and blushed at the same time from seeing it.
"Sean, it's beautiful. You didn't have to do this." Said Lexi.
"I have to. Alexis Taylor Reed, I love you and I want to give you this promise now. I know that we've been dating for four days. Or is it three days? Maybe it's four days. We're both in this relationship for keeps and I want you to know that I will never leave you. You're probably thinking that I'm proposing you for marriage and I know that we're still young and you don't want to get married now. I want to spend the rest of my life with you." I said as I put the ring on Lexi's finger. Tears were glittering in her eyes and she took one last step to me and kissed me on my lips.
"I love you too, Sean Miller. And I promise you, that I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Lexi said. I smiled at Lexi and I gave her a hug and a kiss. Then suddenly, that strange feeling came back as I began to notice a red dot on her stomach and then it hit me like a bolt of lightning. I heard the sound of a car speeding towards us and I see a man in the car holding a submachine gun with a red dot sight attached to it.
"Lexi, get down!" I screamed as I pulled her down to the ground.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Hail of gunfire was being sprayed out of the Uzi. I held Lexi tightly in my arms as the bullets ricochet around us. The gunfire sounded like firecrackers going off in Chinese New Year. After the shooting stopped, I checked to see if Lexi was alright. She didn't have a bullet wound on her and I was thankful that she's safe. I recognized that car from anywhere. It was a black Cadillac, and I saw it across the street after Chyna, Olive, Fletcher, Lexi, Angus and I left Karaoke-Doke Tuesday. Did I mention that I have a photographic memory?
"Are you alright?" I asked.
"Yeah, I'm alright." Lexi replied. I saw where the car was going and I was not going to let this guy get away.
"Wait right here!" I exclaimed as I pulled out my gun and began to chase the shooter on foot. Lexi saw the gun that I was holding in my hand and she started to get really scared
"Sean, wait!" Lexi yelled. I didn't listen to her yelling my name. I was chasing the car. What was I thinking chasing this guy on foot? I must be going out of my mind and I have a girlfriend who's extremely worried about me. She doesn't want a dead law prodigy. As I kept chasing the car down a couple blocks, I pointed my gun at the car and shot at it. One bullet hit the back window, another hit the rear tire and a second bullet hit the front tire to slow the car down. I fired one more shot at the car and the bullet hit the shooter that was driving the car, causing him to drive uncontrollably. The car was swerving over to the next corner I and I started to follow it. When I caught up to the car, the car was at an abandoned factory. This is it, I am going to catch my first criminal. I had my gun ready and my hand was on the car door getting ready to open. I opened the car door and…where the hell did that son of a bitch go?! This guy is Mandrake! I cannot believe that vanished into thin air. But I spoke too soon as I saw the red dot on my letterman jacket, I looked up and I see the shooter standing at the entrance of the factory.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
I took cover behind the car as the shooter fired again. I was getting into my first shootout with a criminal. I fired a couple of shots back at him until he started to run like a cowardly little bitch that he is. What? He shoots at a young couple having a tender moment and he runs away. Be a man and fight like one! The rush of excitement was getting into my head as I started to enter the factory to chase that bastard. The place was all dusty and it was covered with cobwebs. A lot of hardworking people worked in this place. It's a shame that they closed it down. I checked each and every corner in the building, making sure that I don't get shot. I heard the sound of a gun being dropped on the floor. I ran upstairs to track the criminal down and arrest him and turn him in to the police. I also saw drops of blood on the floor leading me to him and when the blood trail ended on the fourth floor, bingo. I found the criminal and he was standing right in front of a window trying to make his escape.
"Freeze!" I yelled. "Put your hands on your head and turn around slowly."
The man in the black suit turned slowly and I started to walk towards him to see if he had any ID. I checked his pockets and I pulled out his wallet and I took a look inside it and he was identified as Anthony Dracon. I have a lot of questions to ask Dracon and he's going to give me an answer.
"Alright. Who sent you?" I asked.
"Fuck you." Said Dracon.
"Getting smart with me. I don't think that's a really good idea." I said as I punched him right in his face. "Again, who sent you and why are you trying to kill my girlfriend?!"
"I should've killed here when I had the chance. It would've been a shame if I shot her. Her blood would've been in your hands." Said Dracon.
"Shut up!" I exclaimed.
"You won't be there to protect her all the time and if you arrest me, you know I'll be getting out and I'll be going after her." Said Dracon.
"I said shut up!" I exclaimed. A rage was building up inside me. Hearing him talk about trying to kill Lexi triggered something in me. I just wanted to kill him in cold blood.
"Fuck you! You're girlfriend is a dead girl and if you kill me, he'll come after you two!" Screamed Dracon.
"I said shut the fuck up you sick son of a bitch!" I screamed. Dracon moved his hand slowly down to the back of his pants pocket, indicating that he's pulling out another gun. "What are you doing?"
"You're dead." Said Dracon.
"What the fuck are you doing?!" I exclaimed.
"You're a dead man." Said Dracon.
"Don't make me shoot you. Stop what you're doing right now. Stop it, now!" I yelled. Dracon pulled out his gun and he was about to pull the trigger. Until…
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
I shot him five times and he crashed through the window and fell to his death. I couldn't believe what I've just done. Things have gotten silent. I was hyperventilating and my hands started shaking in fear. I dropped my gun on the ground and I started to slowly walk towards the broken window. I was afraid of what I'm going to see right before my very own eyes until I looked out the window and I see Dracon laying on the ground dead. A dark pool was growing from his head and it was becoming a horrifying sight for me.
"Oh god!" I cried as I collapsed to the floor and picked up my gun. I never killed a man before but my father has and I was afraid that I might turn into him. What was I supposed to do stand there and let the sick bastard kill me? I did what I had to do. Lethal force was authorized and I defended myself. I couldn't stay in this place any longer, the cops would be here to check what's going on and…oh god, Lexi. I ran out of the building to get to Lexi until I saw her standing outside right in front of the door.
"Sean." Lexi said as she stared at the gun in my hand. "Oh my god."
"I…I…I." I collapsed to the ground crying as Lexi got on her knees and hugged me. She wasn't freaked out about the gun in my hand or the fact that I killed a man. She hasn't seen me cry before. I try to fight back my tears but I couldn't. I just felt so vulnerable.
That was chapter nine. Things got a bit dramatic at the end for Sean and Lexi. Tune in next time for chapter ten where Sexi is going to have some sexy time with each other (wink wink). Also, don't forget to review this story (No Bad Reviews) and I'll see you guys later. Till next time my fellow readers.
