Chapter 3
" Is everyone set up?" Our team leader Ty asked through the tiny earpieces he gave us. "Locked and loaded" Dylan replied. "I'm good" I replied back into the tiny headpiece. Gavin nodded his head letting me know he was ready. "Good" Ty replied. "They will be here any minute so keep watch". I looked around my surrounding making sure everything was clear. Gavin and I were both next to each other on the roof of a tall abandoned building. Looking down straight in front of us was a steel gate in the middle of two security buildings. Looking through the scope of my sniper I could see Ty and Dylan is position.
"Hmm" Gavin made a sound, indicating something was up. I looked over at him wondering what he was going to say. "What is it?" I asked him. He had the weirdest expression on his face. "Uhh Gavin?" I said looking at him. " I wonder" he mumbled to himself. "What if they are coming in a way we would least expect?" He said, finally looking up at me. "What do you mean?" I asked, looking back into my scope making sure things were clear. Suddenly a reflection hit the left side of my sniper scope. "They're in the air!" I said through the mic. "Damnit were coming!" Ty yelled back through the earpiece. I closed my scope so it wouldn't get scratched, Picking up my sniper and equipping it to my back. "Let's go" Gavin said to me in a soft tone. I nodded, and followed him through the door and inside the abandoned building.
We embraced into a run down one of the halls and quickly turned left. It was so dark, I could barely see anything but the moons light coming in from some small windows. "This way" Gavin said turning into one of the rooms of the building. There was one big window in the center of the wall when you first walked in. Along with a small desk and chair on the right side corner of the room. The room was too bare I thought. "They're going to easily spot us in here" I told Gavin with a worried expression. "Sure, but they wouldn't think we would be in here if it were to be so closed in with good hiding spots." He said with a confident look on his face. He did have a good point. "Okay" is said. "I trust you" he smiled at me reassuring me that everything was going to be okay. Him and I both positioned ourselves on the opposite sides of the door. We left the door open making it seem like there was nothing to hide. This defiantly was a risk, but it was a risk I was willing to take. "I'm going to do this" I said to myself. Slowly I pulled out my dagger from the side pocket of its latch. Ready for anything to pop out at us.
Small voices rang from down the hall. Both Gavin and I gave each other a quick nod. We were both ready. The voices got louder and louder getting closer to us. A man laughed. "What's even the point of this mission, if there's not even anything here?" He said. There's defiantly two of them then I acknowledged. Gavin looked back at me signing that they were just about to be in sight. Giving him a tiny nod I averted my eyes back to the dark hallway. "The boss is just nervous. He never tells anyone his intentions for things" a different voice replied. The figures finally came into sight. I looked back at Gavin giving him the sign that I could see him. He slowly raised his hand counting off his fingers from 5,4,3,2,1. We both jumped out from where we were hiding, right into the two men. "What the hec-" one of them started to say but my fist made contact before he could finish.
I shoved the guy down onto the ground so that his back would hit first making him grunt. "You're going to pay for that" the man said. "Yeah whatever" I told him, punching him again. "You must be there girl our boss is looking for" he said spitting blood out from his mouth. "What?" Gavin said. He must have finished off his guy. "We're going to bring you back with us" the man said, ignoring Gavin's comments. "No, I'm going to destroy the darkness" I told him, anger radiating off of me. This guy pissed me off. I thought glaring at him. He started to laugh in that nasty way all people do when they are apart of the darkness. "We will create a new world, a new era overruling all" I finally lost it. I shaped my hands into fists, hitting his face hard each time my hands connected to his face. "Ally" a faint was said. "Ally!" The voice said louder. I stopped what I was doing, adrenaline filed my body making it hard for me to focus. "He's passed out. Let's hurry up and go before they wake back up" Gavin came over to me. Reaching out his hand to me. I looked back at the man laying unconscious, deciding he might be up soon. "Alright" I told Gavin. Taking his hand as he helped me up.
"We took down both of our guys" Gavin told our team through the earpiece. "Okay" Dylan replied. "It is clear on the bottom levels." He told us. Gavin raised his hand to the earpiece pressing a tiny bottom turning it off. "Okay, we will be down there shortly." I told Dylan through the mic. "Okay" he replied. I took the earpiece out of my ear and into my pocket. "What was that all about?" Gavin asked me. I stayed silent not looking in his direction. "Ally" he said in hopes that I would answer. I sighed. "He was talking about my past." I began telling him. "I lost my parents and the ones closest to me several years to the darkness." He gave me a sad look. "I'm so sorry" he said embracing me in a hug. I slowly nodded before breaking the hug. "Let's get back" I told him. "Sounds good" he said.
We finally made it downstairs meeting up with the others. "How did it go" I asked Ty. He looked at me with an annoyed yet angry expression on his face. "They got away" he scolded himself "we didn't get any information whatsoever." Dang that's not good I thought. "Okay well tonight was a fail, but at least we're all in one piece." Dylan finally spoke up. "Yeah" Ty responded. "Anyways I think it would be best if we all went home." He finished. We all nodded, and began to leave. "Later" beastboy said to Ty, running off in the opposite direction from the rest of us. Wonder what he is up to. I looked back to where he had parted but he was already gone. I shrugged, letting it go. I could really go for a bit to eat. I thought. I started heading in the direction of McDonald's, it was atleast something cheap to eat. I could only do so much, trying to save my money for new equipment.
"Ouch!" Someone suddenly said. I looked up in the direction of the voice and saw a girl my age come stumbling out from the bar. She dropped something in her hand and started to freak out. "No no no no no!" She began to cry. "I dropped my wallet somewhere" she looked around for a brief second before she started walking again. I held my hand up to my mouth holding in a laugh. I can't believe she left her wallet. I walked up to the girls lost item, picking it up. "Uhh miss" I called out to the girl. "Is this your wallet?" I asked holding out her wallet to her. She gave me a dumb look and shifted her eyes to my hand. "Oh why yes it is!" She said happily taking it. "Thanks for finding it fo-" she suddenly lost her balance, falling onto the pavement. "Hey are you okay?" I rushed over to her holding my hand out to her. "Oh my head" she said, raising her hand to her head. "Yeah I should be fine. I just need to find my way back home first." She answered. Oh man this was not a good sign. Then an idea hit me. "Would you like to spend the night at my house?" I asked her hoping the question wasn't to weird. She looked up at me and nodded. "Yes. Would that be fiiiine?" She slurred the fine on that. I slightly laughed. "Yes absolutely" I smiled at her. "Thank you" she said smiling back. I nodded helping her up.
we finally made it back to one of my condos. I had several around the region just in case of emergencies like these. Working as the number one sniper defiantly gets you some good money. I reached in my pocket for the key, unlocking the front door. "Come on in" I gestured to her. "Wow" she said looking amazed. "This is a really big condo! You could have so many people here all at once!" She said continuing to looking around. "Haha yeah you could say that." I told her. I didn't think mentioning that I had more than one place to live would really change the subject. "Is there anything that I can get for you?" I asked looking at her. "Just a place to sleep would be nice. And maybe a cup of water please." She asked nicely. "Of course, I'll be right back with everything." She smiled nodding her head continuing to look around the rest of the condo. I went up the stairs and into my room, taking a blanket and pillow off my bed to give to her. I hoped she should be somewhat comfortable. I walked back downstairs to where see was. "Here is a blanket and a pillow, I hope you will be somewhat comfortable on the cou-" I paused. Looking over at the couch. She was already asleep. I went up to her laying the blanket on top of her and the pillow next to her, feeling it would be to weird to lift her head up. "Hmmm" I thought. Just in case I better get the water she asked for incase she woke up. I went and to the fridge pulling out a cold water bottle. Closing the fridge I went back over to where she was, placing the drink on the nightstand next to her.
Turning off the light I went back up stairs and into my room. I went over to my closet pulling out some clothes to sleep in. Putting those on I was in gray sweat pants and a pink t-shirt. Turning off the light to my room I went over to my bed, getting under the covers. Man, I can't believe everything that happened today. We got no were. I thought feeling hopeless. All I want is to get my family back. A silent tear rolled down my face as I looked at a family photo of me and my family from four years ago. My dad and mom were on the left side of the picture holding each others hands with big smiles on each others faces. Me and my sister Ashley were on the other side of our parents with our arms wrapped around each others shoulders with the biggest smiles we could do at the time. That picture had been taken the week before my birthday. Sighing I looked away from the picture and its memory's. Deciding it was time to go to bed I closed my eyes and let sleep consume me.
