SEEKING REVENGE
Chapter 6: Vengeance is Sweet
"Davis!!!" Bosco yells. "Get down!!!"
As I come up behind Bosco, I realize his reasoning for yelling 'get down.' As I look in front of me, the air catches in my chest. There, playing out in front of us like a movie, is a line of gunmen with all machine guns pointed straight at Davis. As soon as Bosco yelled to him, he dove on the ground. Not a second too soon either. For the next thing I know, the room is filled with gunfire and sounds of splintering wood from the bullets hitting the furniture.
For a moment, it is hard to see. Debris is flying everywhere. Pieces of wood are being thrown in our direction. Davis crawls over towards Bosco and myself. He looks fine; just a few scratches on his cheek. Sully isn't too far away either. He is out of the line of fire and he is slowly making his way over to us.
We continue to fire at the gunmen as they continue to fire at us. Then, out of the corner of my eye I see Monroe and Cruz along with a bunch of anti-crime cops coming to our aid. We were out numbered before but now the tables have turned. The gunmen are the minority and they keep becoming fewer and fewer as we take them down with our weapons.
A few more minutes pass and the gunfire stops completely. On one side of the room there are the dead bodies of our 'enemy.' On the other side, cops helping their friends who are wounded. Luckily for us, not too many of us were injured.
I turn to look at Bosco and the others. Everybody seems as relieved as I am. We are all just surveying the damage and praying that this nightmare is finally over. In less than ten minutes, we took out all of the people helping Donald Mann. Now, the only challenge we are faced with is finding and killing the one in charge....Mann.
"Everybody ok?" Cruz asks as she walks over with Monroe.
"Yea," I respond. "We're all fine."
"Ok, so now we just have to get Mann right?" Davis asks.
"We need to get Mann first, then lock up Jelly." Bosco replies.
"Yea, that too" says Davis.
"I got some info from that scum over there," Cruz says as she nods her head in the direction of one of the injured gunmen lying on the floor. "He says that Mann is supposed to arrive here in about five minutes."
Everybody nods their head at her words, letting her know that we understand what we need to do. In less than a minute, everybody is in their positions, ready to fire if necessary when Mann comes through the front door.
With all guns aimed at the door and hearts beating fast, we wait. Wait for what seems like an eternity but in reality is only a few minutes.
Then, as though we have been waiting for this moment forever, the sound of a key being put into a lock is heard. I hear the click of the doorhandle as it is unlocked. I see the doorknob beginning to turn ever so slowly. The whole world is in slow motion as all eyes, all beings, all thoughts are concentrated on this one doorknob. The knob stops turning and the door is slowly starting to be pushed open.
A ray of sunlight filters through into the darkness of the room as the door slowly opens inch by inch.
A/N: Thanks everyone for being patient and waiting for this chapter to be posted (sorry about the shortness and lack of dialogue). I just returned from vacation but unfortunately I wasn't able to write any while I was away. However, I will try to get the next chapter up soon. It will be the final chapter of this fanfic so keep looking to see when I have it posted. Please review!! Thanks!
