✏Allison’s POV✏
.
My body stilled as his cold and emotionless eyes stared into mine. For a moment, the earth paused around me and my brain couldn’t calculate anything other than the fact that I had just watched my mom die in the hands of these people. I was numb. I could say for a second I died; nothing functioned in me. My eyes remained dilated in shock and I heard distant echo like voices that slowly brought me back, I pulled my gaze to find dad signalling to me.
“Run!” His mouth moved. He was on his knees and crying out as he bent towards mom. That word snapped me back.
“Allison! Run!” He repeated and immediately, I knew I was at loose end. I could see one of the gang, immediately making way to come get me and dad’s voice kept echoing in my ear.
I did the next thing, my body calculated was the right thing. I began running, I passed the front door and ran into the streets. I didn’t let my mind think of anything else that could weaken my movement but the tears wouldn’t stop either and as I ran; I waved them off.
Boots marched behind me, as I felt a hot chase coming after me. How I overtook them, I didn’t know but I didn’t stop to think about it.
I was drawing close to a corner when I heard a gunshot. Alarmed, my legs stopped moving as I turned towards the direction of our house exactly when the sound came from.. my heart began pounding right in my chest as my feet wobbled.
Dad!
I feel to the ground, strength failing me.

🖊️Jonas POV🖊️
.
I stirred the tea in the cup and took a light sip out of if, nodding in satisfaction; I left it on the table and grabbed my cellphone, sitting on the bed.
I went to my dialer and checked her contact ID, I held my thumb over it, contemplating on calling her or not.
I let my mind wander on what she could be doing. She seem pretty much like a daddy’s girls so she probably should be sleeping.. I pictured her sleeping face and didn’t know when it turned to fantasy.
How can I develop this kind of feeling for a girl I just met and spent nothing more then three hours with, is this how emotions work?
We weren’t even that informal with each other.
I was still in my thoughts when my phone buzzed in my palm and the ringing tone began singing out loud.
I checked the caller ID, hoping it would be only one person but it was dashed when I saw that it was Gavin.
Ugh please.. why won’t he just give up. I swiped to the receiver anyways, waiting for him to speak first.
“Jay, I need your help!” His voice rang out, breathlessly and terrified.
“Gavin, we talked about this-
“No, no Jay, you don’t understand. This is important, it could bring trouble for me and you, all of us!”
“What is it?” I asked, taking a sigh.
“The girl?”
“What girl?” I asked, impatiently.
“She escaped! The victims daughter. And I’m scared that she might be with the evidence, it holds all of my secrets and identity behind the masks, I can’t let that get viral!” He said, his voice filled with so much fear.
“Gavin, if you’re telling me this to get me on your job then you’re wrong, I’m not coming back-
“Goddammit Jay! This isn’t about getting you back and you know if that stuff gets out and I get exposed then you are going down too-
“Are you f-cking threatening me right now?” I asked, my teeth gritting.
“Jay, consider this a final request! Please. Don’t let us do this!” He said.
I shut my eyes, my palm grasping the phone and took in a huge quiet breath.
‘Final request?’
“Jonas-
“Where is the target’s location?” I asked and could hear his relieved heavy breath.
“Zoe says she’s heading east, probably towards the town’s exit” he said.
“On it!”
I ended the call and walked to my bed, I grabbed a black leather jacket and pulled it on, tucked a pistol into my p-nts pocket and my car key. I walked out of the room and got to my car, I opened the door and climbed into the drivers, igniting the car to life; I head to work.
.*
I drove for almost two hours but without sight of the girl.
I should be on the road by now, heading to a fresh start but somehow I’m here, back to that old lifestyle.
I connected my phone to my airpods and almost immediately, Gavin called.
“I don’t see her. Are you sure about her location?” I asked.
“Yes-”
The rest of his words died down when I saw a figure from afar, running towards my car.. it was a female, obviously. And it looked like she was running away from something and she had been running for a long time since her steps were already doddering and something about her movement hit me..
I can’t believe I’m thinking about a girl in this state! I mentally slapped my forehead.
“Seen her!” I informed Gavin and his relieved breath filled my ears.
“Keep me updated”
“What should I do?” I asked.
“Search for a card reader on her, I’m sure it should be with her. Get it and kill her” he said.
“Okay” I answered, stopped my car and got down as the figure drew close. Her steps truly were failing her and she was trying effortlessly to keep it in pace.
I waited for her and when she was close enough, she stopped running. As if noticing me and suspecting, she turned and began heading backward but fell just as soon as she took a step. I filled in our space and grabbed her up easily from the ground with my palm.
She was fragile and completely worn out.
“P-please save me! Please!” She begged, her voice breaking as she cried.
Saying nothing, I twirled her around and stilled almost immediately.
I almost had to punch myself. How can I be thinking about her in this state, is my hallucination that strong that I’m seeing her face now..
Honestly, emotions are crazy.
I shook my head, as if shaking her face from my head off, I looked and saw her again and the way she looked at me, it was with so much familiarity.
“J-Jonas?” She called my name breathlessly.. Her chest rising and falling rapidly.
Suddenly I heard a loud bomb-like sound and she turned swiftly from me and gasped.. fire sprout to the air and thick foggy smoke covered that part.
I needed no soothsayer to tell me that was her house that got burnt, tears immediately began falling from her eyes and her body trembled on mine.
“H…e..lp me.. p..lease!” She cried and collapsed in my arms.
“Jonas?” Gavin called and I quickly took her upon my shoulder. “You got her?” He asked.
“Yes. I got her” I answered, took the airpods off and walked to my car with her.
