A different Daniel : Part 5
Disclaimer: I only own Alissa.
She woke up to the sound of a thumping noise. She sat up straight and looked around for Danny. He wasn't anywhere to be found. Then she heard a click and saw the big door opening. A guard came out and went to her cell and unlocked the bars. He grabbed her and drug her to the door. He took her inside and shoved her to the floor. She hit it with a thump. She was grabbed again and pulled up into a standing position.
"Maybe this will get you to talk." She heard a man say.
"Leave her out of this." She knew that voice. It was Daniel. What did he say?
"Well, either you die or she dies."
"I'll take the latter of the two." A different person answered. Jack appeared behind Daniel and shot the leader between the eyes with a nine millimeter pistol.
"Anyone else want to hurt my friend?" Jack asked.
They all shook their heads from side to side in unison. They ran away in all different directions.
Jack untied Daniel from the chair he was sitting in and helped him stand up. "Alrighty then. I suppose we'll be going." He took his place in the front of the line. Alissa followed behind him, and Daniel took his place at the back. Suddenly, Daniel shouted "LOOK OUT!!!"
"You should have killed us all when you had the chance." One of the guards had a pistol pointed at Jack and Alissa's heads. The guard was about to pull the trigger when Daniel pulled both of them backwards and onto the floor. But in doing so, he gave himself away as a target and the bullets was already on their way. Daniel dropped to floor missing one of the bullets, but the other one hit him square in the chest. He doubled over in pain and the guard had started to pull the trigger on Alissa and Jack but an emergency door was sliding down. Closing off anyone who was left inside or outside. The guard paused and then figured he would die anyway so he focused on Alissa and Jack. They were going towards the door with Daniel and getting away so he just started shooting randomly in their direction. Alissa and Daniel made it through but the last bullet nicked Jack's arm and he had to stop. The door was getting closer and closer to the ground. When Jack didn't move in time Daniel reached out and grabbed a handful of Jack's jacket with both hands and pulled him out. The door then shut fully and Daniel passed out.
