You know where the review button is ;) hope you enjoy, and sorry for the wait!
I was tied to the wall with chains. I thought the big bad guys and their leader was cliché, but nothing compared to this. This was like the new version for the dictionary. Anyway, it was rather uncomfortable and i was biting my tongue to stop from complaining. I wanted to show that i wasn't scared, that they could do what they liked and it wouldn't bother me one bit.
Only a couple of issues there.
1. it's a complete lie. I'm terrified
2. I'm real bad at drama and acting, and can be a convincing liar when I'm not in a more upper scale dilemma, so I'm not a convincing liar in this circumstance.
So basically, I'm terrified and can't lie.
Great, just what i need right now.
Everyone else seemed to be in mixed positions.
Alex looked rather calm, but i could tell something was on his mind. He kept flexing his hands.
Wolf was attempting to kick his leg back and forth in the aim to loosen the ropes i guess. it was failing epically. I could tell his tongue was going over the blood on the inside of his cheek where he fought back when they tied us up, and so punched him.
Snake seemed to be thinking something over in his head. Probably his way of keeping calm and what not. It seemed to be working for him though.
Fox was struggling quite a bit on the ropes, and i could see his face and wrists getting redder and redder yet achieving nothing. Snake nudged him and he seemed to stop, wincing now every time he moved his wrists.
My dad was sitting there, a lost expression on his face. His eyes were looking right at me, but I'm not really sure he was actually looking and seeing; he too deep in thought.
Maybe that's my distraction, my way to keep from thinking about the situation. To see what's going on around me.
Suddenly i was horribly aware that i was tied up facing them, and they were facing me, in a horse shoe like shape but about 3m from me.
It was too far. I wanted comfort right now, not distance.
My lip started quivering and I was dangerously close to tears. Why was this happening to me? Why couldn't I have a normal life, with a mum, and a dad that was a lawyer or something boring like that? Why did I have to be in love with a teenage superspy? Why? Why? Why?
A single tear threatened to escape, however much I didn't want it to. Alex was looking at me now, and he could see the shimmer in my eyes, I was sure of it because he mouthed 'don't worry' to me. I tried to relax a bit. They would protect me, wouldn't they?
The door was thrown open and none other than Oli de merde stalked in, a cold, lifeless expression on his face. I swear I had seen that somewhere else….
"Morning gentlemen…and girl. Lovely day, isn't it?" he laughed cruelly, and I really wanted to cringe.
"We wouldn't know, we've been locked up underground or something for however long." Alex grumbled.
Oli's gaze flicked to him, and pain flashed through his eyes, just for a mini second. Then it returned to lifelessness. "Alex. You are not underground, you silly boy!" the man exclaimed.
Idiot mistake number one. Now we know we aren't underground.
"Tell me, Olivandronnes. How come you are the brother of Yassen, yet you are nothing like him?" Alex asked; curiosity in his voice.
The man let out a cold laugh. "Yassen is my brother. Yes. But we have different fathers. His father never wanted me around, and so he chucked me on to the street. And Yassen never said a thing, never tried to ever stop me from going. I bet he wanted me to go. I swore I would get my revenge, on that stupid John Rider after when my mother died he was the one who took in Yassen when he went to Scorpia." He paused, a hateful glare pointed at Alex.
"But John Rider died! And you are a double of him. Everything about your features and personality screams John Rider. I asked Rothman, yes I knew her, I asked her if I could be the one to kill the Rider's and she said no, 'tis Ash's job. She said my time would come to get my revenge. She said that when she died I was free to open a new branch of Scorpia. One that very few know about. A branch I named venom. Deadly, and can cause slow and painful deaths." When he paused to take in Alex's reaction, I doubt he never got anything off it because Alex had his cold emotional mask on too.
"And the head of Scorpia right now. They asked me, leader of Venom, to get information about 2 of Great Britain's top defences. the SAS and MI6." Aw crap.
"And that is exactly what I plan to get from this right now. With this lovely young lady here as a little…persuasion" a sickening smile was placed on his face now.
"I will be back in a minute…don't go anywhere" he laughed and went away.
Silence echoed around the room.
Dad was panicking, however hard he tried to hide it. Wolf was angry, something he often was. Fox looked scared, something I had never seen on his face before. Snake was looking at me with an odd expression, and suddenly I had a vision of him having that face when he picked the flowers for my grave…..
Snapping outta it, I saw Alex was looking at me with a sad expression.
I hated Oli de merde.
I was horrified, I mean I felt sick to my stomach, of what was going to happen. This murderer, cold hearted killer, he was evil.
He was probably going to cause my death. I wanted so badly to be sick right now, but I knew I had to look brave, put on a brave face.
I didn't want them to know that I would ever give in to them.
