Adom and Alexandra tip toed into cabin home. It was around 10 in the morning and they had woken up to sneak back in without being noticed. The doors to the rooms were closed and the cabin was quiet, they both had just assumed everyone was still asleep.
"Where have you two been all night??" Both of them are stopped like a deer in the headlights when they heard Win loud and angry voice. "Have you got any idea how worried I was?!" He whisper/shouted at them. Win stood beside a small recliner chair with his arms crossed over his chest. Alexandra wanted to laugh but she knew Win wouldn't be too happy with that so she simply hid behind Adom.
"We just went for a walk, calm down Winny." Adom smirked.
"Calm down?!" Win sighed and pressed his hand against his forehead comically. "What kind of walk lasts 9 hours?"
"I take walks that long all the time Win." Alexandra pointed out.
"Well yeah but
As soon as they enter in main base , they had entered the main Hall. Samnatha was nowhere to be found and the whole room was filled with younger officer's and a few older ones."Alexnadra!" He heard a familiar voice call to him. Emma was running to her, Jul and his younger siblings trailing behind her. "Main headquarter is under attack! They won't let us fight.""Where have Win and Prea run off to?" Emma pointed to the main doors."They've gone out to fight too." Alexandra squeezed Adom's hand in a reassuring way before letting it go to get his gun ready. "Wait! I don't think you should go..." Alexandra frowned at the girl."Why not?" She and Jul shared a look."Alexander was here. He came looking for you and when he didn't find you.." She trailed off."He took your D-" Jul was cut off by Alexandra scream of pain as she doubled over. A hand ov
Alexandra couldn't stop blaming herself for everything. First, she had let Prea get hurt, and she'd sworn to always protect her. Headquarter was under attack while she left to base. And now, she had made an oath to always protect Win, and for all Alexandra knew, her bestfriend could be dead in a matter of seconds, and it'd all be her fault. Her bestfriend had been bleeding but had stopped now. Alexandra could feel a faint ache in her head but sometimes it hurt more than other times. She didn't care about that, it was a reminder that Win was still breathing, that there was still a chance.Prea and Nora were outside the Basilias getting some fresh air while Pheuk, Mike- who had joined a few minutes ago- , and Alexandra waited impatiently for Adom or Leo to exit Win room.Alexandra was thankful Pheuk was next to her. He held onto her hand for support and therefore she could hold onto someone too. When Adom left
Prea had been pacing for nearly more than ten minutes. She couldn't go back into the Basilias, just staring at the door was making her want to pull her hair off. Mike and Nora just stood on the side, letting her cope in her own way."Why won't they hurry?!" She kicked the wall. Mike took that moment to step in and pull her into a hug."He's going to be alright." He muttered. "You don't know that." Prea voice was muffled by his shirt."I don't know for sure, but I do know that Win has been through a lot worse, and I'm positive he'll be fine.""Why do my friends always suffer so much?!" She stained his shirt with tears. "Alexandra, Win...""They're warriors, and remember what I told you Prea." His usual soft and calm voice was strong. "Just like whatever has happened to Alexandra in the past or that Win is on critical condition, that's not your fault either."
Samnatha had no idea how to react. What to say...Adom, Prea and Alexandra, and Nora stood in front of her. She had been in her office after the officer's ceremony for those who were killed in battle. She was still in her mourning clothes as well as the others and even some high government officer's came to join them . It was still a nice gesture of them, knowing they will help in any way they can to protect the authority.Alexandra and Prea had come barging into her office to seek her help, Nora and Adom had joined seconds after. Nora kept begging for Samantha not to help them, arguing that they were just kids and they couldn't put them at risk.She was right. The authority couldn't just send theses kids out into a fight with such a dangerous threat like Alexander. And maybe Alexandra knows about him and considered an adult, but they still couldn't risk it, she couldn't just send them out like that.
Flashback:-Sometimes one must trust their friends, their family. Other times you mustn't believe everything that comes out of their mouth.Man and Ohm had the local gang tracking down their sister and her bestfriend and brother. They were difficult to convince but Man was very persuasive."We haven't found anything." The leader said. "My men's is tired, we must rest."Man didn't want to stop the search. After he had talked with Prea through the phone he knew something was wrong. First, she calls from an unknown number. Second, she says Jia sent her and Ashly out to a job without them. Third, Man and Ohm has been feeling horrible whenever they think about their sister, they know their are something wrong, very wrong . And lastly, they had contacted their mother to ask her if what Prea said was true, and of course it wasn't. Man didn't want their monther to get worried so he simply said Prea was playi
Flashback continue:-Prea watched over Ashly. She had woken up with a gasp an hour before, she was screaming in pain and her eyes were changing color drastically. They were turning all black, even her sclera, but Prea still could see a small glint of blue and that gave her hope. She screamed in pain for over ten seconds before he collapsed back on the sofa. Now she whimpered and was sweating a lot on her sleep.She sighed before walking into the basement where Yanyan was locked up. The older boy looked up with a smirk. "Finally, I thought you would leave me here to rot." His voice was playful."Tell me. She's getting worse, please tell me." She begged."What day is it?" He asked instead. Prea stared in confusion and annoyance."Does it matter?! Just fucking tell me already!" He smiled."Fine, but you have to untie me.""Not happening
Flashback continue:-It's like a drug, she will crave more until she gets the last dose."Stop!" Prea held her hands in front of her. Ashly stopped mid way from inserting the needle into her skin. The needle attached to the black blood. She reached over to her tentatively. "Give it to me.""I can't." Her voice shook. Her hands were shaking and she was sweating from head to toe. Yanyan was smiling wickedly from behind her and Ashly eyes were locked on his. "I thought you loved me."Prea stopped in her tracks, she followed her friend sight and paled. She knew Yanyan would make things worse, so she walked faster towards Ashly, still quietly enough to not startle her."You were so foolish. Such a lonely troubled girl. Of course you thought I loved you, no one has ever showed any interest in you." Yanyan scoff. "Pathetic.""You're wrong about me, I'm stro
Present:-To say Alexandra was scared is an understatement. She had no idea if their plan would work. Alexander is too powerful and he is not easy to fool."I'm coming with you." Pheuk argued. Alexnadra really was tired of going over how he needed him and Mike to stay in headquarter."Pheuk listen to me." Alexandra sat down beside him. It was just the two of them in the room. Well three, if you count Win who was laying on the bed unconscious. "I need you to stay here. You and Mike are the only ones I trust to know about this, and I need your help to protect base. You told me this was my fight, I have to do this Pheuk. Not only for the authority, for the local gangs, the civilians, Pheuk I have to do this for Wim, for our father Dean, I have to protect my new family and my friends. I also have to do this for me, because I don't want to be scared anymore. It's time for me to believ
