Hi everyone! Thank you for the reviews, you don´t know how happy you made me! I made a 'happy dance' as soon as I saw all those lovely and sweet reviews. Thank you so much! Because of all of your support, I made another chapter! YES! I did! I'm awesome right? :D haha, just kidding. I hope you will like this chapter. It's a confusing one, a lot of things are happening.
Go on and read, and thanks again. I love every single one of you!
Horatio made his way to his office. Thinking about all the unanswered questions of this case. When he reached his door, he heard someone yelling his name. Horatio turned round and saw Walter running towards him, holding a letter in his right hand. He seemed out of breath, like he had ran a marathon. But that didn't matter at that moment. All Horatio could stare at was the letter in Walter's hand.
"Mr. Simmons. What is it you're holding in your hand?" Horatio hung his head to the right, twirling his sunglasses in his hands. Trying to read what was written on the letter.
"It.."
Walter gasped.
"It is a.."
Another gasp.
"Mr. Simmons, take a deep breath. There's no reason to hurry." Horatio placed his hand on the doorknob. "Come in and sit down. I'll get you some water, if that is okay for you.."
Horatio was about to open the door to his office when Walter shook his head.
"I'm fine, thank you H, but.." Walter took a deep breath. "H, this letter is for you. They left it at the reception."
He handed the letter to Horatio. Horatio turned it in his hands. Looking at it like he was afraid that if he would open it, it would explode. But when he did open it, nothing happened. It was, truly, a letter.
He started to read the letter and gave the envelop to Walter. Walter hopped on his feet. He felt some awkwardness between the two of them. Walter wanted to walk away, to leave Horatio alone for a bit, giving him some privacy. But then, suddenly, Horatio dropped the letter and ran away.
"WHY?" She shook her head angrily. "WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME?"
She was shaking. The gun was shaking in her hand. She tried to control her body, she shoved some hair away from her face and she scratched her cheek for a moment. She felt dirty. Her clothes were sticky. She could smell the fresh blood that dripped down on the ground.
A movement on her left. She turned round.
"DON'T YOU DARE TO MOVE AN INCH! STAY WHERE YOU ARE! DAMN IT!"
She pointed her gun to the person in front of her.
A movement on her right.
"I SAID: DON'T MOVE! WHY WON'T YOU LISTEN!"
A tear escaped her eyes. Her long black hair danced behind her, following the rhythm of the wind. She wiped the tear away with her sleeve.
"I'M DOING THIS BECAUSE I HAVE TO! WHY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND."
Some more movements.
"STOP IT!"
She pointed her gun to the person on her right and shot, she missed an inch though.
Relieve was heard.
"You. Get up and go sit against that tree!" She pointed with the gun to the tree.
The person did what was asked.
"And YOU.." she cocked her head. "you.. you seriously don't know who the hell I am?"
The person in front of her crawled away from her every time she took a step closer.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME? All this time! ALL THIS TIME! You still have no idea who I am?" Her legs felt wobbly. She couldn't stand this. This whole situation was getting extremely complicated. And she couldn't do a thing about it. She didn't want to murder, even though she wasn't afraid to pull the trigger.
"P..p..plea.. please.. don't hurt me."
"Don't hurt you? I HAVE THE RIGHT TO! YOU HAVE HURT ME ALL THE TIME, AND NOW YOU ASK ME NOT TO HURT YOU?"
"Y..yes. I'm begging you! Please! I will do ANYTHING for you! The only thing you need to do is ask!"
"ASK? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" She laughed. "That's the funniest thing I've heard today…" She paused for a moment.
"Sorry. I wasn't planning on murdering today. But it seems that I'm getting in the mood. One pull and you're DEAD. You hear me? DEAD. Do you like that thought?"
The person shook his head.
She focused the gun on the person's head. She was just about to pull the trigger when..
..
"AYLA! DON'T!"
-x-
Everything seemed so weird. If they had stayed behind the car then none of them would have seen this situation. Three bodies were lying on the ground. They seemed dead, but they weren't quite sure about that.
Someone sat against the tree, hands holding face. Crying silently.
Then there was someone holding a gun, pointing it on a person, who they couldn't see, because he or she was sitting behind some shrubs.
They had lowered their guns because they weren't quite sure of what to do now. They couldn't make out who the people were in the scene, and the thing was. None of them seemed to notice that they were watching them, which was a good thing though.
They looked at each other, they nodded and stepped backwards. Trying to make their ways back to the other side of the car. They took a step, and another, and another. Until they were fully covered by the car again.
They sighed, backs attached to the car. Wondering what they could do now. They had to think fast, because of what they could hear, it didn't seem to go well on the other side of the car.
It seemed like the one with the gun was angry on the one behind the shrubs. They heard someone yell something in an angry way. Kinda scary too.
They focused on what they could hear. Someone begged and someone yelled but also, just talked. There was a scary laugh. And some yelling and begging again. And then there was nothing for a couple of seconds. Until.. someone yelled:
"AYLA! DON'T!" a pause again. "you don't need to do it this way, there are people who can help you! Please, listen to me…"
A "BANG" was followed.
-x-
Everything seemed like it was going in slow motion.
Screams.
Blood flying everywhere.
Another shot.
A mess was made.
Some more screams.
Some more shots.
And a car.
A second car appeared.
A man got out of the car. Gun ready for using. He didn't know where he was going. As soon as he got out of the car he ran to the nearest tree and hid. Checking every now and then what happened behind the tree. Waiting for the right moment to get in the situation.
And when he found the right moment, he backed away from tree and yelled:
"MIAMI DADE PD! PUT YOUR GUN DOWN."
Everything seemed like a whisper. Thoughts were flying through her mind. Pain was making its way through her body. Everything felt sore. Everything felt bad. She couldn't see very well, so she kept her eyes closed.
She wasn't quite sure where she was. It felt nice though.
But then.
Everything went cold, everything went warm, a burning pain, and as fast as the warmth had come as fast as it was gone, there was the cold again. The coldness took her over.
She screamed. It was hurting her. Everything was hurting her. But every time she thought she screamed, she didn't hear a thing. She opened her eyes in shock and pushed herself up. Pulling her hair, breathing heavily.
Breathing in and out. In and out. In and out. Her heartbeat got its normal beat again.
Everything seemed different.
Everything was bright and light. Peaceful. There was no pain anymore. There was no sound anymore. There was nothing but a peaceful bright place with grass and trees. Nothing else but her and mother nature.
It was just..
Peaceful.
