Chapter 6

  • The black Rolls Royce could be seen, running at high speed on the highway.
  • "Let's listen to music, '' Anaya asked, not taking her eyes off the wound. Emerson had a cloth on the wound in order to reduce the flow of blood. The car could be silent as a graveyard but Ariel cries were too loud to the extent of Anaya asking for music. She won't stop crying because of sister's wound.
  • "Don't worry, I will get you to the hospital.." Emerson said and played the music as she wanted.
  • "Where did you get the gun you used earlier?" Anaya asked with a soft whimper..
  • "How old are you Anaya ?" Emerson asked, trying to change the topic.
  • "I will be eight years old and Ariel is two already..
  • "Oh!!" He hummed and had his face focused on the road.
  • "Hoodie hero" Anaya called, He had no choice but to answer.
  • "How did you know we were kidnapped ?" she asked.
  • "I was informed." He replied
  • "By who?" she asked again. Emerson was getting frustrated with the whole interview.. yes! It's like an interview with him.
  • "Logan. Logan wants me. So in order to get me, he held you and your friends hostage. Are satisfied" Emerson muttered..
  • "Why didn't you come with my elder sister and save us ?" Anaya asked again.
  • "I don't like kids but I found myself talking to a kid. But not a nerd one, but you. Can't you just hold your lips for seconds" Emerson snapped at her and her mood changed instantly.
  • He almost regretted his actions but he thought it was the best...
  • "Here, we are here to treat your wound," Emerson said to her but she refused to get down.
  • "Aren't you going to get it treated?" Emerson asked with a frustrated face...
  • "Take me back to school. I will direct you, it's not far from here" Anaya uttered.
  • "But---
  • "No but, just do as I say, since you don't like kids why are you trying to show you care. " Anaya muttered, trying to fight back her tears but she couldn't,,, She's not crying because of how he snapped at her but she's crying because of the pain she was feeling from the wound. She wasn't sure of what's making her shed tears but she thinks it's the two. He hates the kid, indirectly he hates her and her wound was just adding gasoline to the situation.
  • "It hurts" she cried out, when she couldn't hold it anymore. Emerson heaved a sigh and got inside the car and ignited the engine and drove away from the hospital.
  • "Won't I get my arm treated?" Anaya yelled and burst into fresh tears. Emerson ignores her...
  • "He's too cold," Anaya thought and whimpered silently. Emerson showed no remorse...
  • They stopped in front of their school.
  • "Are you sure this is your school?" Emerson asked but no response.
  • Anaya groaned as she opened the door and got down. She opened the back door for the kids and let everyone out of his car.
  • "Is she really ignoring me?" Emerson thought and scoffed.
  • "Why didn't you try to show love at least once" his inner mind yelled..
  • Anaya led every kid back inside the compound.. She went back to Emerson's car and opened the door and picked up his gun that was on the dashboard...
  • Emerson opened the door quickly and questioned her.
  • "Where did you think you were taking that ?" He blocked her way.
  • "Do you believe in death ?" She asked with a cold face. Emerson's heart skipped...
  • "Because right now if you don't move away from my way, I might shoot you and believe me when I say you will die instantly.. you will die because I'm not gonna give you a shot but shots' ' Anaya threatened.. but Emerson was determined to block her way..
  • She chuckled and pointed the gun to his legs..
  • "How funny it was to have my arm injured and you have your legs injured..." she muttered and held the gun tightly... She couldn't hold it very well because of her other hand but she was determined to pull the trigger. Eventually, she pulled the trigger..
  • Emerson himself knew he was shaken with fear... thankfully, the spot she aimed at wasn't where the bullet landed.
  • It was the gunshot, the school authority and other parents heard that they all stood up instantly....
  • "I think they are back," Daphne said aloud. One of the parents ran to lock the doors and windows. The principal was calling each class Teacher's to have their classroom locked including the windows.
  • Daphne and Amy locked their hands together while other parents were calling 911 for help.
  • The loud screams of other students was the only thing they heard...
  • Daphne ran to the window as Ariel who won't stop shedding tears.
  • "My babies are back" Daphne screamed, and ran to the door trying to unlock it.
  • "It's a trap ma'am" another parent said which stopped her from opening the door.
  • "There's a guy with Anaya's and there's a gun in her hand" Amy shuttered.. she didn't think twice before running to the window and fed her eyes with the show. She turned around and faced the principal..
  • " I will talk to her. She might think it's a toy gun because she loves guns but the one she was holding is real. Please let me talk to her " Daphne cried, trying to talk things out with the principal.
  • " My son, Matt," one of the parents called out to her son... He didn't hesitate to turn around and rush to the window..
  • "Mommy" the little boy called onto his mom...
  • "Ariel!! Ariel!!" Amy called...
  • "I don't think she will recognize me because she has not seen me before but Anaya will recognize me" Amy thought and moved her gaze at the door.
  • "It's not opened yet, but it remains small" she thought and looked at how everyone's mind was away.. She looked at Anaya who wouldn't stop talking and tried to convince the principal. Without thinking twice, she ran to the door and opened it..
  • Amy ran out of the office.. she looked at the gate and saw Anaya.. without wasting much time, she ran to the gate which was miles away from the office.. Daphne saw the door opened and looked around.
  • "Amy" she mumbled and ran out of the office...
  • "Anaya" Amy and Daphne screamed loudly.. of course she heard her name.
  • "Nice with the deal. Promise you will come back and train me. " Anaya said again... he nodded.. and handed her the cheque.
  • "Give it to your mom and get yourself treated. I will come back to train you when you clock ten years of age" Emerson said and took her hand and planted a brief kiss on it along with the cheque.
  • "You have to go now, Go Go Go Go, my sister is coming" Anaya rushed her words and pushed Emerson forward. He got inside his car and zoomed off...
  • Anaya was about to turn around but she felt darkness all of the sudden..
  • "Anaya" Amy screamed but it seemed Daphne was the loudest.
  • TBC...
  • What deal did he make with her ??
