A Life not worth living

Chapter 15 – The Lion King story comes to life


25 S.W.A.T. and FBI cars surrounded the area of Beth's house. They weren't going to let Uncle get away, and with the plan they had come up with, that wasn't going to happen. Every single officer was armed with the latest weapons and stealth equipment. There was no way around them. Sean climbed in the back of a large van and emerged a few minutes later with a medium sized gun and a large dark blue suit with the police symbol on it. "Here, put this on" He threw it to Kai and he put it on, fastening it tightly. "It's a bullet proof vest; it'll protect you in case something goes wrong"

"I sure hope this works"

"Oh, it will" Sean jumped out and began rounding everyone up, sending them to their posts. The teen looked at the car in which Beth and Max were sheltering in. Don't worry Max; he'll never hurt you again. He loaded his gun and took the safety off.

Never again.


Beth was jumping up and down in the driver's seat due to boredom. She was playing with everything and anything. Max jumped as she beeped the car horn. "Beth will you sit still!"

"But I want to help! I'll beep the horn if I see him"

"No, you will behave and sit normally like a good girl" He leaned forward and lifted her back beside him. "They have enough problems without you giving them all heart attacks because you keep pressing the horn"

"But I don't like sitting here, there's nothing to do!"

"Do you want to go back in the house?"

"NO!"

"Then isn't it better being in here?"

"I guess" she sighed. Pulling her swimsuit front from her body she made a whining noise and tried to wipe away the blood that remained stuck on it. Max pulled out a small cloth from his pocket and wiped it away, cringing at the thought of whose blood it was. "Thank you" Beth gave him a big smile and crawled back into the front seat.

"Beth don't start again…"

"I'm only looking" She opened a few compartments in the passenger seat. Max rolled his eyes and sat back, jumping in fright as Beth let out a scream. She dove into the back seat and clung to him. "Get it away from me!"

"What's wrong? What is it?" She pointed to the floor of the car and Max leaned over to find what was scaring her. He gasped as a large handgun lay on the mat. He picked it up and examined it. "Beth, it won't hurt you by itself"

"But the bad man used that to shoot…"

"Stop, you don't need to say his name" He continued to look at it and an idea popped into his head. He opened the door and got out as soon as all the cops had disappeared.

"Where are you going? We were told to stay here" Beth crawled across the back seat towards the open door.

"Rules are meant to broken. You stay here, you're too young"

"I don't want to be by myself!"

"Tell you what, if you see the bad man then you beep that horn as loud as you can so we know to come and get him" Her face lit up and she agreed, bouncing back into the car. Max shut the door and made sure the gun was loaded. He smirked and looked at the house. I'm gonna do this myself, no one else but me can do this.


Kenny and Glen were now sitting silently in the corner watching Uncle drag Tyson out of the room. He watched him pull out a picklock and lock the door, trapping the two inside with the corpse. "That should keep them from escaping" The teen just gave him a dirty look. Uncle laughed and then grabbed him by the hair and dragged him into another room, which looked to be Glen's. He threw him to the floor and shut the door, moving a bedside cabinet to block it. "No one's getting in…" He turned to the blue haired boy. "…and you're not getting out"

"Whatever" He sat up and looked at the floor sadly. Uncle growled.

"You're not still mopping about that boy are you?" Tyson ignored him, acted as if he were the only person in the room. "That's it! I've had enough of you wasting my time, fuck it!" Tyson looked up to find the gun pointed at his head.


Sean motioned for his group to start working on opening the basement window. It took about five minutes but they got it open and Sean, Kai and the rest climbed in. "Now listen" whispered Sean. "We need to do this as fast as we can, we can't let him get away this time" Everyone nodded and headed up the stairs. The door was opened and they ran into each room on the ground floor to find the place empty. Suddenly a gunshot was heard from upstairs. Rushing up they found all the doors closed and they opened them all apart from two which seemed to be having trouble opening for them.

"Open up, this is the police!" Still the doors remained closed with a few hard kicks one was knocked open. They ran in to find Kenny and Glen cowering in the corner and a familiar body on the floor, covered in blood. The teen could only stare as he recognised his now dead friend. Kenny's voice brought him back to reality.

"Chief, Glen, you two all right?" They nodded and were then lead out of the house at last. Sean nodded his head and noticed the young male try to hold back his tears as he turned and left the room. Sean turned to a cop and told him to call an ambulance before following him and finding him leaning against the wall, face hidden in his hands. He placed a hand on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry" The teen removed his hands and stared at the ground, finally letting a few tears fall.

"Beth wasn't kidding"

"Unfortunately, and it's not over yet"

"He's gonna pay…he's gonna PAY FOR THIS!" He pulled out the gun he was given and headed for the other door that couldn't be opened. He began to kick at it like mad and ram into it with his shoulder. A few cops began helping him and the door was slowly pushed open as the bedside cabinet was moved. They pilled into the room to find it empty apart from one figure in the corner. "Tyson?"

"So you finally came. Sure took your time"

"You OK?"

"Yeah I'm fine" Sean approached him.

"Then what was that gunshot?"

"He tried to shoot me but I managed to move out of the way and tackle him to the ground. But just threw me to the side and jumped out of the window when he heard you guys"

"But that means…Max is out there!"


Beth sat alone in the car and had found something else to do…continuously open and shut the windows. She stopped it though when an ambulance came and parked near her, sirens blaring. She watched as paramedics got out and rushed into the house. "Ooo, fun!" She began to bounce up and down again, getting excited by all the commotion. Suddenly her eyes lit up when she saw two people come out of the house. "MUMMY!" Glen turned and then ran to the car, opening the door and laughing as she brought her daughter into a hug.

"Beth your safe!"

"The police found me mum"

"Did they?"

"Yeah, and Max and Kai were with them"

"You OK baby?" Glen ran a hand through Beth's hair smiling like mad.

"Yeah" She looked at the other person and cried out when she saw her other friend was all right as well. But when Kenny asked her where Max was she said she didn't know.

"Well, which way did he go?" he asked. She pointed the house.

"He went round the back" Glen and Kenny exchanged worried glances. What was he up too?


Max stood in Beth's large back garden, gun pointed out in front of him. His Uncle was doing the same but he had a smirk on his face. "Go on, shoot me. I dare ya" Max just ignored him and stayed still. "This is boring. Look, I'm being respectful" He threw away his gun and held up his hands. "Now who's the bad guy? Pointing a gun at someone isn't very nice" He smirked again as Max slowly lowered his gun and threw it away.

"What now?"

"I'm real sorry Max. Can you ever forgive me?" He was a little confused by his Uncle's sudden change in character. But he wasn't going to fall for it.

"What are you up to?"

"Nothing, I swear. I realised what I did was wrong and I'm really, really sorry. Please, I just want you to come back and live with me again"

"I'm not falling for your act"

"It's not an act, I really mean it" He got down on his knees and plodded towards him. "Please Max…" But the blonde took a few steps backward and shook his head.

"I don't trust you" Suddenly he was pulled to the ground as his Uncle pinned him down.

"Then so be it" he hissed. He placed his hands around his neck and began to cut off his air supply. The younger male was struggling as best he could as he gasped for air but more pressure was put on and it just made things worse. Then he spotted something out of the corner of his eye – one of the guns. Quickly reaching out he grabbed it and aimed. Uncle gasped as a bullet lodged itself into his shoulder. He began to squirm and cry out in pain while trying to stop the bleeding. Max threw the gun away and struggled to his feet, coughing a few times.

The gun fire had attracted the cops' attention as they appeared from the front of the house. They arrested Uncle but he had to be taken to the hospital first. Kai appeared and embraced the younger boy in a tight hug.

"Are you OK?"

"Yeah, I'm fine" Tyson ran up and jumped on his friend.

"YOU'RE OK!" They both hugged and then all watched as Uncle was dragged away.

"It's finally over" The blonde put on the biggest smile he'd given in months.

"I think you better get back to hospital now. I shouldn't have taken you out in the first place"

"OK" Before they could move from their spot Beth came running round an clomped Max. "Hey Beth!"

"Yeah! You're OK too!"

"Yip!"

"Hey, you know what? This is just like 'The Lion King' where the nice nephew beats the evil Uncle" They all laughed.

"That's exactly right" Then Kenny came round and began to yell frantically.

"What's wrong Chief?" asked Tyson.

"It's Ray…he's alive!"
