Them
They're gone
Amy point of view
There was not a sound at the table; everyone was eating breakfast, silent. Eva was looking at her uncle and her dad, trying to figure out what was happening. I was eating my eggs nervously. Even Bobby and Sofi didn't scream each other heads off.
Jerry was coming today. They were going to ''talk'' to him. In my opinion, Bobby was going to kill him, brother or not, if he had something to do with Evelyn's death. I sigh. I knew Jerry couldn't have done something like that, not after what he had seen. What I made him seen, actually.
"To hell with this!"
Bobby got up from the table and walk away. Angel sigh, kiss Sofi and follow him. Jack got up too, look at me, and then follow, like always. I sigh again.
"Eva, do you want to play outside?"
Her eyes lit up at that.
"Yeah!"
She got up and ran away, putting her winter clothes on. I stand up too and I look at Sofi.She was not eating; only playing with her food.
I had thought she was a crazy bitch. I was wrong right this instant. She was involved in all of this too, because of Angel. This woman, she was brave. The brother of her lover didn't like her, always yells at her, but she still stayed with Angel. He was always gone, leaving her there, alone, but still she stayed. I could see now that she was afraid for him. That's why she was always yelling.
"Hey Sofi"
She looks at me with her sad dark eyes.
"Want to come outside too?"
She only smiles at me and got up.
Moments later.
I was standing on the sidewalk, talking to Sofi.While the boys were doing god knows what to Jerry.He had arrive few minutes ago.
"How long have you know Angel?"
"Since he came to live here." She laughs. "I was already crazy about him."
I laugh too. Those two were just made for each other. Then she blushes and looks away.
"What? What is it Sofi?"
"I'm not telling you, you're going to laugh your head off."
"No I promise!"
"Before Angel came, I had a crush on Bobby..."
I really couldn't help but laugh.
"See I told you, you would laugh!"
"Sorry! Why hasn't it work?"
" Well... when I started to know him... he was always yelling so... here we are."
We only laugh at this. I watch has Eva throw herself on the snow and came out of it, all wet. She was making herself a tunnel.
"Amy..."
"Yeah Sofi?"
She seems to hesitate but then she shrugs her shoulder.
" I just... how do you do it?"
"Do what?"
"With Jack. What do you do, to make him come to you, stay with you?"
That surprised me. Why was she asking me this?
"Why are you asking Sofi?"
She bits her lips.
"Well...Angel is always gone and sometimes it feels like he don't really care about me..."
I could tell there was something more by the look in her eyes, the way she couldn't stop moving.
"And...?"
"I'm pregnant, Amy.
"Sofi! That's Wonderful!"I hug her, happy, she hug me back.
Then, we saw a man walking toward Eva and us. Eva had stop to play and was looking at him. The man said something to her and, scared, she run toward us. She clutched my leg, not letting go.
"What is it sweety?"
The man walk toward us, then I saw it. A gun. It was a stupid thing to do I know, but it was the only thing I could think about at the moment.
"JACK!"
Then, he fired. Sofi yells and Eva scream. I didn't do anything. There was a sensation in my arms. Something hot was sliding down my arm. I look at my arm, it was barrely a scratch.
"MOMMY!"
"GET DOWN!"Yells Sofi.
Without looking, I took Eva in my arms and throw us on the snow, beside Sofi.
"AMY!"
"SOFI!"
I look up and saw them at the door, but they couldn't have make it more far, for a black van had just arrived...
Jack Mercer point of view
I look at them; they were all yelling, saying things to Jerry. They had punched each other, but this time it wasn't playful. I couldn't say more than I already did. Then, they finally stop talking, breathing hard.
"So, you promise Jerry? Promise you had nothing to do with mom's death?"
"Why would I kill the only person who care?"
That seems to shut them up. Then we heard:
"JACK"
Follow by screams that could have stop your blood to run, like mine did. It was Sofi and scream.
Angel and me ran to the doors and saw it. Amy, Eva and Sofi were laying in the snow, a man with a gun coming forward. Panick, I scream her name.
"AMY!"
Angel was just beside me.
"SOFI!"
I could tell he was as scared as I was. We where about to run to them, when Bobby yelled:
"GET BACK HERE!"
We saw men come down a black van, armed to the bone. They start to fire at us and we had no choice but to run inside. We throw ourselves on the floor and cover our body with our hands. Better lose a hand than our life after all.
There was a scream again.
"Amy..."I murmur.
I ran to the kitchen, grab some gun and threw some at Angel.Bobby was already fighting back, shouting a guy in the leg when he tried to come in. I positioned myself right were I could clearly see my family and protect them.
No one was going to touch them. Not until I'm dead and buried.
Amy point of view
There was gunshot everywhere. I couldn't help but scream when I saw the man that had approach us fall dead beside us.
"MOMMY!"
Eva was crying, scared to the bone. I took her closer to me. We had to do something, we just had too.
"Sofi! Sofi can you move?"
She turns toward me and she was as panicked as I was.
"Yeah!"
"Can you see something inside the house?"
She said nothing, only took a deep breath and raise a bit. I wait anxiously beside her.
"Mommy, I'm scared..."
I look down at my baby. She was crying and looking everywhere, looking at the dead man. I turn her face into my chest.
"It's gonna be okay. I promise."
Sofi turn back to me.
"Bobby's shouting everywhere. Jack's watching your back and...Angel's at the window upstair."
I could see the tears in her eyes. She was scared. Scared for herself, but mostly for the baby she coud loose. She had a hand on her stomach. I nod. There must be something we can do.
"I know. We can go and try to make it to the back door."
Sofi nod, a bit of hope came in her eyes. We look everywhere.
"On the count of three."
It was suicidal.
"One..."
There was gunshot everywhere.
"Two..."
We were breathing hard, but we were ready. Even Eva was ready,ready to run, for our lives.
"THREE!"
We run toward the back door, we had to stop at one point, but we continued anyway.
"Come on we're almost there!"
Sofi stop, Eva, who was right beside, her screamed.
BANG.
Sofi felt to the floor.
Angel Mercer point of view
"What the hell are they doing? They're gonna get kill!" I yell.
We saw them running, running toward the back door.
"Go Angel! Go and help them! They're going for the back door!" yell Bobby.
Jerry was righ beside him. At first he had done nothing, but then he had saw the picture of his wife, destroy and he had come to life. I ran to the back door, but before I could go, Jack was right beside me.
"I'm coming too man!"
That's when my heart stop beating, that I stop breathing. We heard Eva screamed, a gunshot and then:
"SOFI!"
My eyes widen in horror. Jack and me had stop dead in our track, shock.
"No..."I said.
I ran like a demon to the back door, Jack beside me. I kick the bloody door open and saw her. She was on the snow; the snow was full of her blood.
"SOFI!"I yell.
She was not moving, but her eyes were trying to see me. I ran to her.
Amy point of view.
Eva ran to Sofi.I wanted to yell at her to stay with me, but I didn't have the chance. I was grab from behind. I saw another go away with my little girl, which was screaming, kicking, trying to get free.
Then, I saw Angel run to Sofi and Jack, right behind him.
Jack.
I bite the hand that was holding me. He let go, screaming in pain.
"JACK!"
Before I could say or do more, I ran to Eva.
"AMY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? COME BACK!"
They were not going to take her. I wouldn't let them. I jump on the man who had my daughter and we all felt to the ground.
"STUPID BITCH!"
He litteraly, knock me out.
Jack Mercer point of view
I run after her. What the hell was she doing? Then I saw my daughter in the hands of one of the man. I knew what she was going to do.
"AMY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? COME BACK!"
No, no. I couldn't loose the both of them. I saw them fall to the floor and my heart kept beating faster and faster. I saw the man kick Amy and she didn't move.
"AMY!"
He threw her on the black van. I was getting there! I was almost there!
Then he took my daughter too. She scream and kick, then she looks at me. Hope in her eyes.
"DADDY! DADDY!"
She keep screaming daddy, then they were gone. I felt to the ground.
"AMY! EVA!"
I couldn't contain my tears and really, I didn't want to. I couldn't move, couldn't breathe. I was staring at the place the black van had been. That van that went away, that went away with my whole life.
I had lost them again. I had let them, take them away. There was siren everywhere, coming toward the house. I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"Jackie?" It was Bobby.
I turn my head back toward him and I'm sure he barely heard what I said:
" They took them away. "
I turn my face back to where the once black van was.
"They're gone..."
