I was scared. For the first time in a long time I was scared. I had always been fearless since I joined the rebels because I had weapons if I was alone against a bunch of people. Sometimes I had a team with me too. But now I was defenseless, alone, and in a dress. All of a sudden the alarm started going off. There were loud sirens and bright red lights. "Alright lets get this over with quickly then." He murmured. He had the knife pointed directly at me pushing me against a wall when he pushed it torwards my face. I dodged it and quickly kneed him. I grabbed the knife that was now implanted into the wall and ran torwards maxons door.
Maxon's POV:
I heard America yell and I ran out my door to see a guard grabbing her with couple following. I went to go run for her before I was held back by two guards. They pushed me back into my office and when I tried opening my door, they were blocking it. I felt defenseless and hopeless as they were probably some that were told to kill America. I thought of something and quickly ran to the phone. There was only one guard I could think of that I could really trust to not hurt America. I dialed the number quickly. "Hello?" He quickly answered. I never called him like this so I guess it seemed serious to him, which it was. "Come quick. Bring backup. There's no time to explain but come up to the 4th floor and you will know who to shoot. Trust me." I hung up waiting for something to happen. I hope America was ok. I heard the rebel alarm went off and I panicked. The next thing I heard was a loud yell outside the door and a loud thud. I quickly opened the door and saw all the guards on the floor with America standing in the middle of it all with a knife in her hand. "America, what happened?" I asked astonished with what I was seeing "They tried killing me. Didn't really go their way.." she said out of breath. "I'm just so glad you're o-" I was cut off when their were footsteps coming. A lot. We both looked over and she seemed very tense. Then I saw the guards running up the stairs with guns when they saw America and everything around her. I saw them start to aim their guns at her.
