People speaking Russian.
Ross slipped on the white suit and then the gas mask that was in the back of the ambulance Ratliff was once in. "Lets go save him.." Ross said.
He made sure he was all covered up and looked like someone who worked there and not an imposter. Even though he was an imposter. All he wanted to do was get to Ratliff in time before they killed him and get him the heck out of Russia to a different hospital where they'll help Ratliff. Not the.. Government.
Ross then thought of something as he got to the door. What's he gonna do if someone talks to him? In Russian. He understands Russian language.. So he knows what they are saying. But he can't speak or pronounce it. Good one.
He just sighed. Looks like he's gonna have to speak English, and try with a Russian accent. His best Russian accent. This should be funny. But.. Had had no time to be funny. "Hey! What are you waiting for come on!" Man #2 shouted. Ross looked at him confused. Now or Never. Now or Never. "Are you speaking to me?" Ross asked in his best Russian accent. "Yes..." The man said "vy iz you speaking English and not Russian?" "I find it easier.." Ross replied.
The man just shook his head "Come on before zey start to vonder vere ve are." The man said ushering Ross into the building. Ross immediately went into the building. Gosh. If Ross is gonna have to pronounce some of his words with a 'Z' or 'V' he might just loose it.
"So.. Vere have zey taken zee boy?" Ross asked. That was the WORST he's ever spoken in Russian EVER. "He's iz in zee lab getting some help viv zee radiation he is contaminated with, zen ve iz going to take him to zat voom ve take evezybody zat knows somesing zey shouldn't." Man explained. Ross nodded "So are you gonna erase his memory or something?" Ross asked. The man laughed "Good von." Ross let out a little laugh, pretending he was playing along.
"Artyom, I'm going to have to ask you to take zee boy to zee room." The man said. "You talking to me?" Ross asked. The man nodded "Zat's vat it says on your name tag on your suit.." The man said hinting to it. Ross looked down to the name tag. Artyom Kovalevsky. Yeah he likes Ross Lynch better. He shook his head "So," He looked down at his name tag "Vladimir... Vere is zis room? And Ra- Zee boy?" He asked. This is the last time Ross try's to impersonate a Russian. Or any foreigner from the U.S.A. English person. He can do fine. Any other. Nope.
Vladimir was just about to tell Ross when there was shouting behind them. "Vladimir! Wait up! Sorry I'm late, someone stole my suit, and I had to get a different one." Artyom said. It was obviously Artyom. Which equals Ross Lynch. Busted. Vladimir looked at Ross "Your not Artyom.." He said. "No I am not.. I am Ross.." Ross said "Ross Lynch to be exact.." "Vat iz you doing here boy!?" Vladimir asked prodding his chest. "To get my friend out of here before he gets killed.." Ross said. "IMPOSTER! IMPOSTER!" Artyom shouted.
By the looks of it, it was Ross's cue to run like crazy. So he did. Looks like he'll be finding Ratliff on his own.
Ratliff slowly opened his eyes to see two of the three people who were hovered over him. He had a oxygen mask over his mouth and they slowly removed it. "A-am I clean..?" Ratliff asked, still weak. So that was a no. "No you are not," Man #1 said "but not to vorry! Ve are about to put you in a room vich vill sort out all of your pain." Ratliff nodded "T-thanks.." Ratliff said. "But you are going to have to valk, zee bed vill not fit in zat room." Man #3 said.
Ratliff groaned, he could barely walk as it is. But the men pulled him up off the bed to his feet and Ratliff tried to walk, but he just collapsed the men caught him though and held him up. Now the men had to help Ratliff walk to the 'special' room. Or drag him.. Either way. "This is perfect, there's no way he'll fight back once he's in that room." Man #1 said.
They then made their way out of the room to this 'special' room.
Ross needed to hurry, right now he found himself flying through the corridor's trying to find Ratliff whilst having security running after him and others. He checked the windows of rooms and nothing was in there. "Oh my god.. C'mon.." Ross groaned.
Ratliff just lost control in his legs and feeling, so the men ended up having to drag him across the floor. Ratliff didn't have a problem with that seen as thought he couldn't feel his legs anyway. Made everything so much better. Now all Ratliff wanted was this help or just to die. This pain was getting to much for him to bare. "Don't vorry, zee room iz just up zeez steps, into zee next corridor at the end. Zee room vill be zere." Man #1 said. Ratliff nodded as best as he could.
He then felt his legs being hit off each step the men dragged him up. They didn't seem to care.
Ross came to a little desk and tapped on the window "Hey, some men just brought in a guy from somewhere, where did they go?" Ross asked "it's urgent!" "Up zem stairs down zat corridor." The women pointed. Ross nodded before making a B line for the stairs which he soon came to, running up them.
Great. More corridors. "One more minute and that boy should be in that room." A Russian guy said walking past Ross. 59, 58, 57. Time is seriously ticking now and Ross needs to find Ratliff so he can get the fuck out of this joint.
56, 55, 54, 53, 52, 51, 50.
He didn't know where to go. That was until he could of sworn he saw some people dragging someone round a corner at the far end of the corridor. He then ran. "Voah.. Vere are you going?" A man asked, as Ross bumped into him. 49, 48, 47, 46, 45. "Saving someone, now move!" Ross said getting very inpatient. 44, 43, 42, 41, 40. "Vo? Vy?" The man asked.
39, 38, 37, 36, 35.
Ratliff was pretty sure he heard running behind him and Ross's voice. But he must be imagining it seen as though he misses him so much. If these guys didn't get Ratliff to this room soon, Ratliff was pretty sure he'd be joining, Ross, Laura, Riker, Rydel and Maia in the sky.
34, 33, 32, 31.
30 seconds.
"Move out of my way NOW!" Ross snapped getting fidgety. 29, 28.. Tick tock, tick tock. "MOVE!" Ross shouted pushing him out of the way running down the corridor at the speed of lightening. 27, 26, 25, 24, 23, 22, 21. "Why are these corridor's so fucking long?!" Ross called out, running still.
"This room is occupied." Man #3 said looking through the mini little slate window to Man #1. "Then we'll take him to the other one. Just a couple of seconds away from here." Man #1 said. Ratliff then remembered something. He remembered realizing Ratliff is in some sort of danger. So he began to flap about trying to get out of their grip. "Stay still!" Man #1 snapped. Ratliff then got out of his grip, smashing to the floor.
Man #1 then hit Ratliff in the back "Stupid boy!" He shouted before throwing him back up to the ground, dragging him.
20, 19, 18, 17, 16.
Ross ran as fast as he could. He got round the corner and saw Ratliff being hit and then picked up, only to be dragged. "I'm coming Ratliff!" Ross shouted. Ross then began to run, only to fall and smash off the floor. Hitting his head. Which made him a little bit dizzy.
15, 14, 13, 12, 11.
Ross jumped off the floor before making a run down the corridor as fast as he could.
10
"Please.. just let me go.." Ratliff begged "I don't wanna be in danger.. I won't.. say.. anything about.. the mutants. I'll keep quiet, I promise!" He begged. He was desperate.
9
Ross got to the end of the corridor and looked down the other. There they were. He then felt someone jump on him "I got him!" Artyom shouted. "GET THE FUCK OFF ME!" Ross shouted starting to fight him off him.
8
"Ve are almost zere." Man #3 said. They were still continuing to drag Ratliff along. Ratliff didn't have a good feeling about this, he just wanted to go home. He felt tears coming out of his eyes.
7
Ross continued to fight Artyom off him "Get off my please!" Ross pleaded "my friends about to die! I don't wanna loose him! He means to much to me!" "You are an imposter!" Artyom yelled at him.
6
"Ve are here." Man #1 said.
5
Ross then wiggled from Artyom's grip before kicking him in the chest, causing him to fall back. He then began to run down the corridor. He has to save Ratliff. He's only got 3 seconds.
Oh god. What if he doesn't make it? He has too!
4
Times running out. Something inside Ratliff just prayed like hell Ross would randomly pop out of nowhere and come save him. Even though it's impossible seen as though he is dead. Or so he thinks he is anyway.
Right now, they were searching their pockets for the keys. They found them and got the key out, ready to unlock the door.
3
"Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on!" Ross chorused running around the corridors "he has to be here!" Ross said running his hands through his hair frustratingly, as tears fell from his eyes.
He turned. There's Ratliff. "RATLIFF!" Ross shouted. Oh god.. They were about to unlock the door and through him into the room.
2
"RATLIFF!" A voice shouted. Ratliff turned his head. Ross. The smile on his face with relief. But he heard the key go in the door and unlock, which turned. Ratliff's face just dropped as he heard the door open.
Ross just shook his head as he went to go run down the corridor. But it was like everything was in slow motion.
1
The two men then grabbed Ratliff before throwing him into the room on the floor.
0
Man #1 shut the door and locked it, so nobody could get in or out. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Ross shouted running down the corridor.
Ratliff got threw in and he hit the floor like a tun of bricks. He just stayed on the floor. He couldn't be bothered getting up, he'd literally lost all the energy in his body from all this. That was until he heard the door shut. And lock. That's when Ratliff realized. There was no way in hell he was getting out of here.
Because of him seeing the mutants, they're not gonna let him go. But.. What about Ross? What are they gonna do to him? Ratliff would die if anything happened to him all because Ross has just basically risked his life for him.
He then looked around the room. The little rectangular window on the door was still open, the slate was on the other side that covered it. It was basically the only thing letting in light into the room. The rest of the room was black. Ratliff started to breathe heavily. Not because he was running out of breath because of the radiation. Nope.
Fear.
Some odd reason, fear was taking over him. He felt like crying he didn't know what the heck was gonna happen to him. He felt like he was in the gas chambers that use to be about in Germany and Poland in the 1940's when World War 2 was going on.
Uh-oh.
What if it is a gas chamber? Oh fuck. Ratliff went up to the door and started banging on it with all the strength he had. "Please let me out of here! I promise I won't breathe a word about the mutants! I promise!" Ratliff pleaded.
He then just stepped back from the door. He heard a noise come from the room. Not like anything ordinary that you'd normally hear in an empty dark room. It was a growl.
"No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no!" Ratliff chorused. He knew what it was. It was a mutant. It was official now.
Ratliff was going to die.
Ross ran up to the door "You get him the fuck out of there now!" Ross yelled grabbing one of the men by the collar of their white suits. "Its too late now.." Man '#1 shouted.
"AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHH!" Ratliff cried out in pain. Ross turned around to the door and looked in the little rectangular window to see if he could see Ratliff. His heart broke as soon as he saw him. He was layed there on the floor dead. Ross just punched the door. He looked down to the key hole. The keys were still in.
Ross reached down to them but one of the men grabbed him "No! Don't you dare go in zere! Or ve vill make sure you die too!" Man #3 said. Ross just sighed before he broke down into tears.
First Maia, then Rydel or Riker, then he had to shoot Laura.. And now Ratliff. Ross didn't see the point in living anymore if they were dead. But he couldn't put what was left of his family and other friends in America through Ross's death.
Ross pulled his arms out of the mans grip "I.. I wanna go home.." Ross said as he wiped his eyes. The two Russian men nodded "You can. On von condition." Man #1 said. "Yes, I won't tell anybody about the mutants in Chernobyl. Got it." Ross said. "Not zat," Man #1 said "you let us erase your memory before you go." "W-what? No!" Ross said shaking his head "I don't wanna forget everyone!" "No no! Only your memory of being in Chernobyl, the mutants and your friends deaths." Man #1. "That vay you vill still remember your friends, but think they died of a natural cause or somesing else," Man #3 said "you'll remember everysing else but zem sings. Ve don't sink you'd vant to remember ziss trip anyvay." Ross nodded. "Come viv us."
Ross followed them into a room. "Lay down on zee bed." Man #1 said. Ross layed down on it. "Who are zee people who died out of your friends?" The man asked. "Er.. Maia Mitchel, Laura Marano, Ellington Ratliff who you just killed.. and my brother and sister Rydel and Riker Lynch." Ross told him. "Is zere anyvon ve can get in touch viv to get you back to zee United States?" Man #3 asked. "Rocky Lynch, my other brother," Ross said "along with my Mom and Dad Stormie and Mark. If you give me a piece of paper, I'll write down their numbers for you." Man #1 passed him a piece of paper and a pen, where Ross wrote them down. "We'll tell you your friends death in near enough zee same vay they died. But viv a little difference." Man #1 said.
Ross then told them how Maia died and Laura did. But he didn't know how Rydel and Riker did.. So he left them both out and told him he didn't know. They just said okay. "Get veady."
Ross then layed back down letting tears fall from his eyes. It's not that Ross wants to remember his friends death, its just..He'll never learn the truth. Or know it. Even though he once did. Slowly Ross's eye lids got heavier as they injected him with something. Soon.. He was out cold.
Ross immediately opened his eyes. He was staring at a white ceiling. The room felt like it was spinning. He sat up in the bed he was in and realized he was in what looked like to be a hospital. In all honesty.. He doesn't know how the heck he got here. Or what the heck happened. All he knows is that it must've hurt because his head is killing him.
The last thing he remembers is the night out he had with Laura, Ratliff, Riker, Rydel and Maia having a good time drinking. Something tells Ross he done something he shouldn't of. His face stung. A nurse then walked into the room "Ahh! You are finally avake!" She said, obviously Russian. Duh! He was still in Russia. "Y-yeah.. What happened to me?" Ross asked "my head hurts. Where's Riker, Laura, Rydel, Ratliff and Maia?" She sighed before sitting on the edge of the bed "Zese two men found you," The nurse said "you vere stabbed in zee middle of a street vilst viv your friends and brother and sister.. Along viv all zee scratches and bruises on your face. You vere attacked by a mob of Russian mafia for some odd reason. Zat's vat zee two men told me."
Ross nodded "What about Riker, Laura, Ratliff, Rydel and Maia?" Ross asked "are they out there waiting for me?" The nurse shook her head "Unfortunately your friends got caught up in ziss riot also," The nurse said "but.. Zey didn't live." Ross just felt his world tumble down ontop of him. He felt like crying. His bestfriends, Laura and Ratliff, were dead. Maia was dead. And his two oldest siblings were dead. Riker and Rydel. How the heck was he supposed to tell his Mom, Dad and Rocky this.
"H-how did they die?" Ross asked as his voice cracked. "Apparently zee two men asked about," The nurse said looking down at the clip board "Maia died because she got dragged off by zem and all that could be heard vas her cries of pain. But zen it stopped. She vas dead. Rydel died because she vas trying to vun avay and unfortunately zey caught her and just killed her instantly. Riker's vas zee same, except he kinda got dragged off avay and made Laura and Ratliff watch as zey killed him," Ross couldn't take much more of this, he knew he asked to hear but this was dreadful "Laura died because she got shot in zee head. And Ellington - or Ratliff- Not sure on zat one. He got beaten to death.."
Ross sighed and shut his eyes as tears fell. Something told him that wasn't the entire truth. But.. If it wasn't he didn't wanna hear it. This was bad enough. "S-so.. Who's fault is all this?" Ross asked. "Novon's, zese mafia people alvays got avound beating and shooting people every so often." She said. Ross nodded. "Do you remember any of ziss?" The nurse asked. Ross shook his head. "Zat's natural, you did seem like you hit your head pretty hard. But anyway you've been out for a couple of days, and you have a visitor." She said before leaving the room.
The door then re-opened a couple seconds later. There was Rocky. He walked over to the bed "I'm so sorry Ross.." Rocky said, sounding like he'd been crying. "I-it's not your fault." Ross said sadly. Rocky nodded. "Remember that bad feeling you got about me coming over here before I left?" Ross asked. "Y-yeah." Rocky said. "You were right about it.." Ross said as his voice cracked. Rocky stroked his hair "I think we should go home now Ross." Rocky said.
Ross nodded. He couldn't agree more. He came on this trip expecting to have a good time. Not to get his three friends and brother and sister killed by the Russian mafia. Something inside of him kept on telling him there was more too it then this though. He just ignored it. Something he shouldn't really do.
"Time we go home and bury Riker, Rydel, Laura, Ratliff and Maia.." Rocky said. Ross nodded "Yeah.. We should." Ross said. He then just began to cry.
Right now Rocky and Ross were on there way to the airport in Russia where they were. It was a couple of hours away. On the journey everything was just quiet and awkward. "S-so what else did you do while you were here?" Rocky asked. "Most we got out of it was a pillow fight between the six of us." Ross said. "Who won?" Rocky asked. "I lost. Everyone turned against me and began to beat the living crap out of me while Maia recorded it on my camera." Ross said. "Oh cool. Sounds like something everyone would do." Rocky said.
Ross then reached into his ruck sack and brought out the camera before playing the video. He smiled. Maia even caught the moment where Riker had fell on Laura on the couch after smacking her left right and center with the pillow. He laughed at it. The Rydel and Ratliff moments. Then Ross just randomly smacking everyone seen as though he was on his own as Maia was recording. Then Ross fell back onto the couch, Laura, Ratliff, Riker and Rydel then began to smack the day lights out of Ross with the pillows.
All the memories came back from when he was younger with Riker, Rydel, Ratliff and Laura. Then when he met Maia when he was 10. Memories from all them times. He got teary eyed. Why couldn't Ross of been the one to of died with the Russian Mafia NOT them. HIM.
He sighed. "Whoa!" Rocky said. "What is it?" Ross asked. "Look out your window it's some deserted town." Rocky said. Ross looked out of the window. He saw a deserted town with apartment blocks, a warehouse, an old car park and a Nuclear Power Station. "That's Chernobyl Rocky.." Ross said. "Oh yeah, I forgot about that disaster," Rocky said "shame what happened." Ross nodded "It is." He said.
Ross sighed once more before looking out the window. Seen as though it was getting in dark, the sun was going down. He looked into the deserted town of Chernobyl. It was dead. Exactly how Ross was feeling on the inside. Rocky made a turn where they were literally driving next to it. But there were other cars so they weren't alone. Ross looked, by the apartment building. He saw a body layed on the floor. It looked like Maia! He shook his head. He's just seeing things. But then he looked into the warehouse. He saw no- LAURA. No. No. Ross shook his head. I'm just missing them so much. Ross thought.
All of a sudden Ross thought he saw something. A human walking about dressing in black, white face, bald. Walking around. Like a mutant off one of those video games he always use to play with Ryland and Rocky sometimes. He shook his head and looked infront of the car.
Then it hit him. Everything came flooding back to his brain. From when he, Riker, Ratliff, Rydel, Laura and Maia went to Chernobyl with Uri. Uri got killed. Ross's leg got chewed to pieces almost. Riker, Ratliff, Rydel and Laura went looking for a wire. The car got tipped. Maia got killed by a mutant. Ross got stabbed. Everything went black. Ross woke up. Found Ratliff and Laura. Ratliff was passed out cold on the floor. Laura was in pain. Ross put Laura out of her misery and pain by shooting her in the head. Ratliff got took away by the Russian Federation Government. Ross tried to save him. Ross was too late. Ratliff died. The two men told Ross the only way he could go back to America and live was if they erased his memory. Ross got his memory erased. Now.. It came back.
Ross remembered everything what happened.
The End.
