“Take cover,” Martha yelled as she dove to the ground and rolled behind her car. “There’s a sniper on that roof,” she added, pointing at the hotel a few blocks away from the hall on the other side of the street and all the backups she brought found places to hide away from sight. “Somebody really wants somebody dead,” she muttered to herself. “That’s the thing with these rich people. They’re always trying to outshine their selves even if it means killing the other or even hurting innocents in the process,” she twisted her face as she gritted her teeth.She tried to peep at the spot she had sighted the sniper and quickly retracted to save her face from being blown up and the bullet shot from Timmy tore the ground right by her side.“Great, I have been marked,” she blurted and rolled her eyes, then double-checked whether her gun was properly loaded and cocked. She was going to take one shot at him and it was going to be her bullet against his. She planned her jump and how she would take

As soon as they reached the hospital, David ran straight to Leo’s ward. He was the only one who could tell what from what in the box.“Which one is it,” David yelled pulling out his gun with one hand and handing the box to Leo with the other one. He was distraught from the events of the day. He had two of his fellow cops, Billy his partner, and his mentor shot and dying from the same poison. It was too much on his fragile heart and he had had it for the day. Any wrong move from Leo and he would pull the trigger. At that moment David was looking for who to blame all the mishaps on and Leo was the scapegoat at that instant. “Are you deaf or dumb?” David sparked with anger flaring in his eyes as he cocked the pistol in his hand and aimed it at Leo’s head.“It’s the green one,” Leo babbled, raising his hands in the air. He knew David was on the edge and the slightest misbehavior would lead him to his demise. He had wanted to negotiate his share of the antidote or steal one by opening the

The hums and the horns of vehicles cars, the party boys and girls dreaming and dancing to jams that played loudly from the clubs, none of these noises could pull John out of his thoughts. He was worried about Martha. There had been a lot of times she would have been shot dead or seriously injured if he wasn’t there covering for her—and those times there were usually other cops that were supposed to be backups too but, in those moments, they were caught up in trying to save themselves. Maybe he didn’t care that much about himself.He usually watched studied the expensive cars that passed and sometimes mentally counted how many of a particular brand of cars passed him on the road, and when he drove past parties, he would slow down, listen and vibe to the songs they played. He was a party king back in the days when he was younger before the responsibilities of taking care of his siblings struck him after both their parents died in a plane crash on their way home after one of their numero

Alita wrapped her hand over Benson's shoulder for support after falling over and nearly being torn apart, and when she saw a man pointing a shotgun at him, the entire world came to a complete stop. She squinted her eyes and recognized that it was the same man who had shot Perry. At that moment, she knew she couldn't lose him. No, not the man that perfectly fits into her imperfections and brings out the best of her. A thousand thoughts ran through her mind as terror gripped her features.She wished she could have intervened when she saw her father's car burst into flames and burn, but as a young child at the time, she was powerless to do anything but stand by and watch him die. Over time, she had dreams in which she had saved him from the fire at that exact moment. She cried after waking up to see it was a dream. Now, she was looking at a gun being pointed at Benson. She wouldn't survive it if she watched him die too. At that moment, there was only one thing on her mind, the one thin

Benson woke up from his long sleep after being sedated by doctor Chris. He observed himself and found out that the bullet from the sniper had only brushed against his skin and caused him a minor injury and his concoction had been because he had hit his head on the frame of the doors and now had a bandage around his head.After fully booting to a normal state of mind, his thoughts ran back to his last moments awake and he yanked himself off the bed and went dashed out of the room and headed down the hallway, where his body and uncontrolled speed took him. Despite the pain he felt, he still ran with every breath he had inside of him.“Alita,” he screamed and his voice echoed through the hallway. Soon after, he began gathering himself a crowd of both doctors, nurses and other patients. He screamed again both it wasn’t words that humans could understand. It was an outburst of pain, confusion, and fear of the unknown.He couldn’t even think about living without Alita. She couldn’t be dead

“This would be weird... but I—we have to say it anyway,” doctor Chris cleared his throat, he and Alita’s mum share an intimate look and at once everybody knew what Chris was going to say. They just waited for his words to confirm their thoughts. “In light of the love that gives life from one to the other, now is the best time to say this. We’ve been trying to tell you, Alita, but couldn’t find the right time,” he paused, observing Alita’s countenance. She was wide-eyed, looking straight at him, expectant of what he had to say. “I and your mum… we are in love and are serious with each other,” he said. A smile crept onto his face as he continued, “We wanted you, Alita, to know, and of course, everyone else,” he drawled and exhaled afterward.The room was quiet and awkward for some seconds as everyone processed what they just heard.Alita went pale-faced and her eyes drooped as her jaws set. She pursed her lips and squinted as She made a mental analysis of Chris as a man for her mother.

Alita wished Benson would stop talking, even though she so loved his beautiful words. She just didn’t like the weight of attention that he had attracted to her. Everyone’s inquisitive eyes set on her and all she could do was close her eyes and wish she could disappear.She had imagined a more official and appropriate scene in her head for when she would meet Benson’s mother. But again, life happened and ruin the beautiful picture in her head. Maybe after he had proposed and then told everyone, then they would schedule a meeting that she would dress and properly prepare.Her closed eyes served as her palm over her face. She imagined how ugly she would be looking at that moment and feels more insecure: dry and swollen face, droopy eyes, bloody johnny gown, and oozing odor of injections and medicines. She remained silent, shutting her eyes as she felt Benson’s eyes crawl on her skin. “Stop staring,” she mouthed and Benson chuckled.“Thank you, Alita, for what you did,” Beatrix's voice d
