"Trust me."
Over the next few days, I said bye to Phoebus and gave him a hug, Zeri gave me a hug, as I watched all of the students leave the dorms. Professors were replaced with enforcers, armed men and women covered the front and slowly paced back and forth. I gave my college one more look as I headed to Vi's car. I opened the door as I waited for her to come in. A few minutes later I heard her voice outside as she got into the car.
She closed the door behind her and looking at her face gave me such a warm feeling... being with her made me feel safe. "Hey handsome, how you doin'?" She asked. I smiled and responded "okay" as she started her car. "So we got some rules fo' this situation. one, don't leave the house. Two, if you need somethin' I ain't got in the crib, ask me so I can send someone to get it. three, if we even suspect Jinx is comin' hea' we will pack up and move to anotha' location."
I shook my head to her rules as we turned left into her apartment complex. I sighed, got out the same time as Vi and stayed close to my girl. Suddenly I heard a noise coming from Vi's red jacket. She pulled out some device and held it to her mouth. "Go ahead." She said... but sounded different. I never seen Vi at work before so I guess this is her "work voice?" The device beeped back with Caitlyn on the line.
"All quiet here, hows your end Six?" She asked.
"Quiet as well, guidin' package to the safe house, Six out."
I must be the package. Vi opened the door and smiled at me as I walked into the apartment first. She followed me closely and shut the door behind her. Vi grabbed my hand and gave me a quick kiss on the lips. "No sex until this shit blows over. I need to focus just in case some shit goes down." She smiled and rubbed my curly hair. I took my shoes off and asked her does she want to pass the time with videogames. She agreed and she followed me to her bed room.
We played quite a bit... it made me forgot that I was in a situation where Jinx can come crashing in at anytime. During the laughs though, my stomach erupted with growls as Vi snorted at my stomach. "I got you, i'll make you somethin'." I followed Vi to the kitchen and watched her work. She got out a frying pan and a grease trap thing? it looks like something you would see at a fast food place. Didn't think these tools existed outside of restaurants.
Vi washed her hands, then the cooking tools, and got out some frozen fries. She prepared the fry cooker thing and waited for it to get hot. Once that was done she put some fries in it, let them soak inside the grease. Next while that was doing it's thing, she got a box from the freezer, then butter from the fridge and lastly poured a little oil into the frying pan. She took out two patties from the brown box, placed them onto the pan and... the smell the burgers gave off was magnificent.
After a few flips, seasoning, she spread butter onto my buns and gently placed the burgers onto them. She added cheese on both patties and then placed the golden brown fries onto the black plate next to the burger. "Enjoy." She said as she started to whip up her some. After dinner, we watched another movie and soon I found myself sleeping in her bed for the night. Today was fantastic bro... No school to deal with, just Vi and I...
To bad it didn't last long... Jinx was here in Vi's apartment, the guards outside were knocked out, Vi and I were handcuffed onto chairs in the living room while Ekko and Jinx sat on the opposite side of us on the couch. I guessed while I was out Jinx swooped in and well captured us. The tip she gave me about the school was bullshit, Jinx set off a fake bomb in Piltover that has Caitlyn thinking it's real due to fake messages from the city.
She tricked me, tricked Caitlyn, and while Vi was sleep with her guard down, Ekko with a emp blast from his book bag took out all communications and his gang cleaned up. Vi, who is dependent on this tech is now disabled... her huge gauntlets don't work. Vi was stripped to her panties as I was still clothed. Their gang was outside covering the perimeter.
"How the fuck did you..." Vi started but was cut off from the smiling Jinx. She pulled out her phone and played a voice recording of where we were going, and two she planted a chip onto me that shows my location. She knew all along, this also explains why she suddenly showed up to that tekken tournament. Jinx put her phone up and sat there... smiling at us.
She pointed at her forehead and said "I am smarter than my sister." She then erupted into laughter, stopped after she ran out of breath and whispered something to Ekko. Ekko nodded and went outside. Silence filled the room as he came back with something in his hand.
A pistol.
Jinx shot a bullet at the ceiling.
A loaded pistol.
"So this won't be long ladies and gents, so let's get this over with." Jinx started.
"Don't bring my baby into this! He ain't got shit to do with my family problems. You want me right? Let him go bitch." Vi said while struggling with her restraints. Jinx snorted and crossed her legs.
"I'll be outside Jinx." Ekko kissed her cheek, gave me a look, and left.
"So, I will be talking to him only sister." Jinx stated. She smiled at me as my fear escalated. "You love Vi?" She asked.
"Don't answah' shit! She's fuckin' crazy!" Vi yelled at me... still trying to get out of those restraints. The more she struggled the more my heart gave up, we weren't getting out of this. I turned my head and smiled at my girlfriend.
"Hey, it's gonna be okay." I said with the biggest smile I can muster. I turned back and answered her question. "Yes." Jinx tapped the barrel of the gun on her forehead.
"That's cute. Do you know she robbed me of my happiness? She killed my father." Jinx revealed. Killed her dad?
"She's lying! I ain't kill no one! She the one that murdered Silco in cold blood! Hell she almost killed my partna'! Everyone is dead because of yo crazy ass!" Vi yelled.
"Silco was everything to me, just as you is everything to her. That's why Ekko doesn't side with her. After my father died, I wanted to kill Vander... but no, you want to know what's better? Killing the person who started this."
I stayed silent as Vi finally ran out of stnamia trying to break those metal cuffs on her. "My sister left Zaun for Piltover. She helped a woman who's job was to hold us down. Keep Zaun undeveloped. But see... Vi didn't love Caitlyn how she loves you. Vi gives you that look, she gives you the world, to see my sister meet someone after all the failed relationships in her life because of her unstableness, to see her love someone... angered me."
Jinx stopped and the room once again filled with silence. After a few more seconds she began again. "I watched you both, happy, loving each other, my sister found someone that fits her so well, it... frustrates me. Silco was the best father I ever had unlike that soft piece of shit Vander. So for you-" Jinx rose up and got into Vi's face. "To think that you can just live happy while I can't!?"
Jinx stopped walked back and took a seat. "Vander gave Vi everything! Zaun people loved her! Claggor and Mylo? Praised this woman for everything! While your little sister didn't get shit! So... I killed them..."
The shock on Vi's face said it all. "The fuck you mean-"
"Yes sister! It was planned that night. I was working with Silco the whole time. He showed me a world where Zaun can be independent, showed me Vander's pussy ways of selling the Zaun people out, so that night when you were taken to jail? Planned."
Hearing this made Vi's arms turn a slight purple as she rose up, broke her restraints and tried to fight Jinx but with no success. Jinx quickly shot both of her legs as Vi screamed in pain. "YOU FUCKIN' WHORE!"
Having the scenery of Vi screaming in pain, crying out made my eyes water... I can't do anything to help her... "As I was saying, Silco died, I lead the revolution of Zaun and earned the rightful title as "Queen of Zaun." Ekko and I, the only man who loved me since childhood, stayed by my side no matter what. I was happy... until Vi met you. I left her Vander because he isn't shit, but you? You bring her happiness that she doesn't deserve. I will kill my sister tonight... not with her life, but through her heart." Jinx rose up and pointed the gun to my face.
"My sister is a traitor, she killed Silco, did not deserve her childhood, does not deserve happiness, she left her city to rot, she never loved me as her sister." Jinx tapped the barrel to my forehead and I... I... don't know what to do... do I die here?
"PLEASE! DON'T-"
Bang.
The force of the shot made my body go back as the world fell forward. I heard something hit the ground, Vi's face coming towards me, laughter... then... darkness.
