Chapter 14: Into Vegas
Alex arrived home crying a little. "I hate him so much that I could just, ahhh; I don't know." Alex screamed out of frustration and then heard the doorbell ring and she answered it. Who is at the door shocked Alex. "Hanson, what are you doing here?" Alex asked shocked by Miss Hanson's arrival.
"I came to deliver a small something to you and two big things plus some heavy armor." Alex understood the armor but raised an eyebrow at the things, whatever they are. Miss Hanson smiled and then pulled out a handgun. "You'll need this Alex." Alex's eyes grew wide at seeing the gun in Miss Hanson's hand. "I realize that you've never actually killed anyone before." Miss Hanson said. "Neither have I."
"I can't kill anyone, I…you can't, I won't." Alex stumbled over her words not sure what to say.
"Use it as self defense Alex and believe me, you'll have to. If this is truly a bomb threat, then you'll need a way to protect yourself." Miss Hanson then brought out three cases and pulled out a shotgun, rifle, and a machine gun. "It's up to you which two you take Alex and remember that you can always take an enemies weapon if need be in exchange for one of these. I would suggest that you take the rifle with you." Miss Hanson knew this wouldn't be something that Alex would be use to.
"I don't want to kill anyone." Alex fell back a bit. After a few seconds and Alex grabbed onto the shotgun and rifle. "I had better get going." Alex said taking in a deep breath trying to relax.
"You'll do fine Alex, don't worry. This is war after all; no one said it wouldn't be dreadfully hard. Here's a little communication device for you, just put it in your ear. Good Luck Alex." Miss Hanson then disappeared in a flash.
"Well, here I go." Alex said transporting herself down to the wizard lair and then got in the IPP. Alex used it and got to Vegas in no time. Alex then pulled out her phone and realized that she is on the roof of the building that she needed to be at. Alex then magically put on the armor. "Ok, I'm on top of the building." Alex said into the device coming from her ear.
'Alex, I heard there will be snipers on top of buildings across from you.' Alex heard through the device and then turned her head just in time for a bullet to fly past her face. Alex cursed as she hid behind something. 'Alex, are you ok?'
"Yeah, I'm fine but you were right about the snipers." Alex said grabbing her rifle off her back.
'You have to take them out Alex. I know that will be hard for you but you have to.' Jacob said on the other side of the line.
Alex took in a deep breath calming herself and then poked the gun out to see a bullet fly past and hit the ground next to her. "I can't do it, I can't get out." Alex said frightened hiding behind a vent. 'I wish Justin were here.' Alex thought scared out of her mind.
'Just calm down Alex, they're snipers which mean that they can only take one shot at a time. Once the one fires once, that's your chance to sneak out and take him out.' Jacob said trying to help calm down Alex.
Alex poked out and then hid as a bullet went flying past her and hit the roof. Alex then immediately poked out and aimed her gun and could actually see that the other sniper is actually using a bolt action rifle. Alex quickly aimed and then fired and hit the sniper making him fall from the top of the building. Then she noticed another sniper through her scope and then fired and hit the sniper in the chest making him fall off a building. Alex then got behind the vent again as a tear slid down her cheeks. She had just killed two people, she didn't want to but she wasn't being given a choice. "I killed two people, happy." Alex screamed.
'Alex, you did what you had to do, now get into the building. Ronald will be in the theatre room.' Jacob said.
"Ok, I'll go get him but I refuse to shoot him." Alex said
'Let's hope that you don't have to Alex. You're doing well Alex, you can do it.' Jacob said softly. Alex went over to the stairs that lead off the roof or onto the roof depending on which way your going. At the bottom of the stairs is a long hallway. 'Alex, he should be two stories down. Be careful though, there are probably people everywhere and make sure not to hit any citizens.'
Alex noticed that the closest stairs are on the other side of a barricade. 'I can't move the stuff or it will cause to much of a racket.' Alex thought and then noticed a barricade next to a door. 'They expected me to come from the roof.' Alex thought seeing how everything is set up. Alex noticed that the only way she could go is through a door and so she went up to the door and opened it slowly, handgun ready to fire at anyone. When she could see in the room clearly, there is a single man there. Alex walked over to the man and hit him with the butt of her gun knocking him out cold. Alex then noticed a hole in the wall and saw three people none of which are looking in her direction. "Jacob, are there FBI agents here?" Alex asked.
'No we made sure that no one is there in your way.' Jacob replied.
"Thanks Jacob." Alex said breathing slowly and then looked around the corner and fired off three quick shots killing each person in the room. Tears welled up in her eyes and some fell. Alex fell to the ground and let some tears fall.
Down some stairs, some guards heard gun shots. "You five, go check it out." Then five people started up stairs machine guns in hand.
