Chapter 18

Make me

She had landed in an empty storage room. Amelia sighed, her injuries were really starting to play up. She knew that she needed take care of her bullet wounds if she was planning on surviving for much longer. Amelia sat down behind a bunch of boxes and sighed again. She carefully removed a piece of the armor on her arm to reveal a nasty looking bullet hole. Amelia closed her eyes and lay back against the box she was behind before starting on the injury. She gritted her teeth as she got the bullet out with the tips of her fingers. And let out the breath she was holding, slowly. She looked at the bullet, it was pretty big considering the hole it had made in her arm. After scrutinizing it she dropped it on the ground in a pool of her blood. After a few seconds of wondering what next to do, she decided to lick the wound clean. This wasn't a very pleasant process at all but Amelia made herself do it. Once it was clean she placed the piece of armor back onto the injury. She had about 4 shot wounds, one in her arm, one in her calf, one in her side and another one in her shoulder. Amelia would take care of those later she thought, then she got up to move on. She sneaked to the door and put her ear on it to hear if there was anybody outside. She could hear somebody talking. Instead of opening the door Amelia did some eavesdropping. She listened carefully and tried to make out what they were saying. The first one said something about a truck full of murdered soldiers and the second thing she heard was something about dead soldiers behind a rock. Amelia became bored and opened the door. She stood in the doorway in silence to see whom the voices belonged to. She saw that the two soldiers were Lenox and Epps. Amelia was not about to kill these two, they were the most awesome humans in the transformer movies. Instead she stood where she was and waited for them to make a move. After about a minute of complete Silence, Amelia made here move. She had made a small plan wile she was looking at them. She might not kill them but that was not going to stop her from asking them about Abby. Amelia had taken her bow and arrow out and shot Epps in the leg before pouncing on Captain Lenox.

"Where is Abby?" She growled into his face.

"Where is she?" When Lenox did not answer her, she picked him up with one hand and slammed him into the wall.

"I'll ask you kindly one more time. Where. Is. Abigail." She hissed into his face.

Epps was on the floor, an arrow was imbedded deeply in is leg and his friend was in trouble. He got his Walky-talky and said something in it with a hasted whisper. Amelia narrowed her cat eyes as she looked at him.

"Let go of Captain Lenox!"

Amelia looked behind her and saw a squad of NEST soldiers all aiming their guns at her. Amelia turned her body around, Lenox still in her grasp. She then took out her knife and put it to his neck. Amelia heard the soldiers loading their guns.

"I wouldn't" The soldier in the front said. Amelia smiled evilly, showing her sharp cyanine's in the process.

"Oh, but I might." She said as she drew the knife she had closer to Lenox's throat.

"Now that your all here" Amelia said slowly, not taking her eyes of the soldiers, "I would suggest you tell me where my sister is, unless you want to see him getting his throat cut open." Nobody moved. Amelia knew that there would be at least one weak link in this squad, she just needed to push things a little.

"No?" Amelia asked as she laid the knife onto Lenox's throat. When there was no answer, she started to move her hand. She slowly, but carefully cut his neck before one of the soldiers spoke up.

"She's in cell 11!" He said desperately. Amelia stopped moving her hand but did not let go of Lenox. She looked for an escape. She could go back up the vent she came from but that would be very tricky, the hallway was long and at the end of it was another hall so Amelia decided to do a runner. Still holding her victim, walked backwards slowly avoiding Epps. When she was at the end of the hall she released the Captain and ran. She transformed into her cat form so she could run faster. As she was running she looked at the base's blue prints on her visors to see where the cells were placed and found them. They were positioned near the back of the building and two floors underground. Amelia ran until she saw the stairs, she leaped down them until she reached level 2. She stood at the front of the corridor and looked at all the cells in the wall. She found cell 11 and in the back of it was Abby. Amelia practically ripped the bars open and got in. Abby was on the floor she had been stuck there for quite a wile and was surprised to see her new sister.

"You came." She whispered. Amelia smiled as she helped her up.

"We need to leave," Amelia said, "Can you run?"

"Yes." Abby answered.

"Good. Follow me and do not fall behind." Amelia said. She then started running at a slow pace to a vent and opened it.

"Get in." Amelia said to her sister.

"What?" Abby said completely confused.

"Get in!" Amelia said desperately. Abby did as she was told and crawled in on her hands and feet. Amelia gave her instructions as she went up. When Abby arrived at the storage area Amelia told her to stay hidden until she arrived. Amelia was just about to crawl into the hatch when she heard footsteps running her way. She quickly stood back up again and took out her swords.

"Put your hands up!" one of the soldiers said. Amelia looked at the group, she turned her head as she heard another squad coming her way. Before she knew it she was surrounded. Amelia heard a scream coming from the vent, they had re-captured Abigail. She had nowhere to go and nowhere to hide. But that was not going to stop her from making her stand. If she was going to go down, she thought, she was going to go down in style. She bent her knees slightly and put down her visors so it covered her face.

"Make me." She hissed before jumping up into the air and attacking everything that meant to do her or her sister harm. She fought hard for ten full minutes before she went down. She had been peppered with bullets, luckily only few of them passed through her thick armor. There were literally ten full-grown soldiers holding her down, she squirmed but it was useless. As she tried again to move from under the men holding her down she felt this strange pain in one of the bullet wounds and soon found out what it was as her world became dimmer, a sedative.
