Chapter 12- Bloody Break-In

At six o'clock we were all at the cliff's side. I was wearing a white hoodie that read unicorn, jeans, blue athletic shoes, my mom's necklace and a colorful backpack with water, food, a rope, a flashlight, a blanket to lie down, a notebook, a pencil, my gloves and the lockpick. Eliza was wearing a pink, cropped hoodie, pink leggings, pink athletic shoes and a floral pink backpack. As for Sylvia, she was wearing a black hoodie with eyes, black leggings, black and purple shoes and a purple backpack.

The boys now. Jace and Chase were wearing almost identical clothes, a gray hoodie the one, a white one the other, the same jeans and same backpacks. Jace was wearing blue sneakers and Chase black athletic shoes. Matt was wearing a "Flash" hoodie, black jeans and gray athletic shoes. His backpack was red.

"Are- Are you ready?" Matt yawns.

"No, not really..." Eliza says.

"Good, neither am I. Let's go." He replies.

We start climbing.

After an hour we arrived. We were so sleepy that we nearly fell a couple times.

We hide behind some trees and bushes on the side and take out our breakfast.

No. Not muffins. Cheetos.

After being done, we drink some water, take out or blankets and lie down.

"This is going to be a long day..." I mutter.

"What are we going to do here all day?" Eliza asks.

"I brought cards." Matt says.

"And we can jump with the climbing rope I brought." I say.

"Or we can sleep a bit..." Jace yawns.

"Okay, you sleep, we will wake you later. Two of us must always be awake, though." I say.

"I lost you when you said I can sleep." He replies taking a hat off his backpack and putting it on his face. Two minutes later he was snoring.

His brother followed up around half an hour later.

The rest of us played cards.

~*~

At around noon, it was Sylvia and Eliza's turn to sleep too.

Even if I wanted to, I couldn't sleep now. It was boring. Matt offered to play cards again, but we had played so much I would rather play again at night.

Now, as to why we came here so early.

Apart from the fact that I want to destroy the Mayor, everyone was asleep. Nobody would see us climb, so they won't be expecting us to be up here. When the Mayor comes, because he will, we will wait until he goes in and follow him.

I took out my notebook and started doing homework. Hey! It's not my fault I was kidnapped when I was doing it. Wow, this is a worse excuse than "the dog ate my homework".

"You brought homework with you?!" Matt asks.

"Yeah, since we will be here all day, I brought it to do it." I answer.

"It's funny." He says.

"What's funny?"

"You seem unfazed from the fact that we might get caught." I laughed at that.

"Do you think I am doing this because I am bored? Yeah, it is that too, but homework helps me take my mind off things. I am far too stressed out. And knowing that Mayor Stinkypants killed my parents doesn't make things any easier." I say. "If we get caught I will rot in prison." I cringe.

"You worry too much."

"You have no idea."

"We should have brought tents, not blankets. The bugs are... bugging me." Oh, no he didn't.

"Did you just... Wh--" his laughter interrupts and I glare at him.

I throw a small rock from the ground at him.

"So that's how you're gonna play it, huh?" He says and throws another one at me.

I take a handful from the ground, throw one at Matt (which hits him in the nose), get up and run away laughing.

He comes after me with no rocks. I throw another rock at him, and another and another until I run out.

"Dammit..." I mutter. "Out of ammo!" I raise my hands in surrender.

"Hmm..." He pretends to be pondering on my statement, but in the end he sits down, back at his blanket. I go sit at mine.

"Well, that was fun." I smile.

"Yeah it was." He laughs.

"I'm afraid." I tell him.

"I would be worried if you weren't."

"Not of the Mayor, or of dying. I'm afraid he might kill one of you." He wanted tk replu, but then we heard a car pull over behind the trees. "He's here, so soon?" I whisper.

"No idea." Matt replies. We approach the trees and look through the branches.

"It's him." I whisper as I see the Mayor get out of his car.

"Go write a note to the others, we are going in." He says.

"What the hell Matt, no! We should wake them up and--" I start.

"It is broad daylight. We can't go all together, they will see us. Let them come when they wake up." He interrupts me.

I go write a note, get my gloves, put on my backpack and pull the hood over my head.

Time to get beyond the fence.

We jumped over and landed inside. Then we went towards the direction we had seen the Mayor go.

Trying to go by unnoticed wasn't hard. There was barely anyone inside.

After a long five minutes, we finally found him.

"So that's where all the guards went..." I whisper.

"What is he holding?" Matt asks. I stretch to see. Whatever it is, it isn't visible from here.

"I can't see." I tell him eventually.

"What did you mean someone of us dying?"

"I don't think this is the time."

"Well, the Mayor might kill us, so you might as well tell me what you meant."

"Not now, dummy."

We wait for the Mayor to turn around, just in case, but nothing. Maybe because two guards sneaked up from behind us.

"Intruders!" One of them shouted and we froze.

"Dammit." I mutter.

"Imagine what would have happened if we had the others with us too!" He whispers.

"We would fight easier?" I ask.

"We would all be caught!"

"Stop talking and get up." The guard tells us and takes us to the Mayor.

Unfortunately, we saw what he was hiding.

"Diamonds?!" I whisper and the guard takes of our hoods.

"You two again! I thought I took care of you Parker!"

"No, I will take care of you!" I hiss and Matt elbows me. "Ow!"

"Bring them to my office. The one within the premises." Oh, so Mayor Stinkypants has a second office. What will he reveal this time? That he is actually an alien? I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, look at that face.

The Mayor went forward and got insidr from that big, luxurious door. We went in by the staff entrance, which was a longer walk. I managed to take the gun from the guard behind me, then fake stumbled and hid it in my backpack.

The guards pushed us in the office and left.

"Are the others with you?" The mayor asks.

"No." Matt says.

"Good, I don't want to kill more than I should."

"So you are going to murder two teenagers because they are being rebellious? Wow. You fell lower than you ever have." I tell him.

"Well, you know too much, don't you? You are kids, you know about movies. Isn't that what they do when someone snoops around?"

"He watches more TV than my grandma." Matt says.

"Why am I not surprised?" I mutter.

"You are unpredictable. You might have your friends somewhere around here and you might be lying to me. I am not sure what to believe with you two."

"Believe that we are getting you in jail for murder and not only." Matt says.

"Do not interrupt me." If he starts yelling 'exterminate' I will give up. I chuckle at that thought.

"What is so funny? Explain." I laugh harder and Matt shakes his bead, probably realizing what I am thinking. "What is she doing?" the Mayor asks him.

"I try not to think about it." Matt chuckles.

"I am laughing at you, what do you think?" I tell the Mayor.

"What is there to laugh about?"

"Many things. First off your face. Secondly, you speak like a Dalek. Last but not least, you are afraid of the same two teenagers you are threatening."

"Why would I be afraid of two meddling kids?"

"You said so yourself, we are unpredictable."

"Not to mention we won't give up." Matt adds.

"Especially after you told us that you murdered my parents."

"You are only two, six if your friends are here. What can you possibly do against the Mayor and the police?"

"Quite a lot, sir." I say and take off my backpack. "Oh, don't be alarmed, I just want a hairband. It is hot in here." I add, but I took out the gun.

"Aileen, what are you doing?" Matt asks, but then we both see that the Mayor has pulled out a gun too and is pointing it at Matt. I point the one I got from the guard at him.

"Matt, he killed my parents. You have to unde--"

"No, Parker! You are pointing a gun at someone, that is not the solution!"

"Then why is he pointing a gun at you? Right now my threatening him is the only thing keeping you alive!"

"Oh, look. A little girl who lost her parents pointing a gun at the man that killed them. What would they say if they could see you now?"

"Well they can't, can they?" my hands are shaking.

"You won't shoot me. You are too good to do something like that, and even if you did you would drown in guilt."

"Try me."

"Aileen, put the gun down, dammit!" Matt says.

"Matt, shut up! I can't lose anyone else and you bloody know it!" I reply and blink back some tears.

"You won't, put the gun down!" He says again.

"If I do that he'll kill you!"

"Then shoot me." The Mayor said.

"Shut up or I will." I hiss.

"Listen to yourself! You are talking about killing him!"

"And he is talking about killing you ! Don't you get it?"

"Get what?" Matt asks.

"Yeah, Parker, get what?" The Mayor asks smirking.

"Stay out of this Mayor Stinkypants." I say.

"What?!"

"You heard her, shut up Stinkypants!" Matt says. "What are you talking about?"

"Matt, not now."

"What is it?" He shouts and there's a gunshot.

A/N: Bello peeps. It is nearly the end, and as usual everything is planned out. In other words you should worry. This chapter is a little short, but I needed to end it here because 1) cliffhanger, 2) you'll see in the next chap.

Get ready for heartbreak peeps ;)
