My heart leaped at the very person. Alex came in view dress in the same full black attire as the guy holding my arm.

"Ashton way to be silent, you woke the whole fucking house" she hiss out sternly, coming closer to us.

"Try opening a door like that....shit at least I got her" he said pushing me towards Alex before making his way ahead of us.

"Are you okay Eli" she look me over after shooting a glare at Ashton's back.

He was securing the door open leading down a darkly lit vent.

But never didn't feel right.

Before we could make a move a gunshot went off hitting the wall behind, taking me by surprise I scream in fear. Alex reacted instantly taking my hand running in the other direction as Ashton attacked the guard.

Within this silent night that commotion must have wake the house, for footsteps began to multiply the further we ran.

A door suddenly open in front of us, Alex ran and kick the door as hard as she can slamming it shut. A painful groan comfirmed everything.

"Move quickly Eli" she said urgently moving against the wall, she pull a gun from her waist strap, cocking the gun off safety before moving forward.

I was shaking at how everything was moving fast, the very violence that was breaking out because of her.

Alex suddenly turn the gun in the direction which they came, her hand ready on the trigger as she heard a fast movement coming their way.

"Whoa whoa it's just me" Ashton emerged from the dark in full speed. With the release of a breath she put her gun down.

"We need to move" Ashton said moving forward as the two girls follow his lead.

There direction was clear finding another exit, at the unlucky event before it completely ruin the plan of a safe escape.

They heard shouts coming from the opposite direction causing poor Eliza to whimper at the anger. She could only follow with nothing to defend herself with, getting out of here was her focus.

"Shit" they both curse

"What's shit?" Eliza question in a small panic voice following their direction at the willing exit surrounded. Ashton knew his brother got word already seeing the men loaded heavily with gun.

They crouched as he check his bullet remaining an unsatisfied look cross his face, he couldn't take them all on.

He sent Alex a look they had to make their exit. Alex grip Eliza hand heading to the windows checking each for a fire escape.

God was on their side pulling open the window "you need to go first" she said ignoring the scared look on Eliza's face. "We'll be behind you", there was no time for this, pushing Eliza towards the window without a word.

Ashton met her eyes nodding.

He watch as Alex followed after Eliza. He made sure no guard was coming their way before following after.

Hissing in pain from a gunshot in his right abdomen, the surge of adrenaline blinding the fact that he was hit.

He ran down the alley way catching up to the girls, they stop at the end Alex pushing Eliza back.

"Fuck, what now" Ashton said in rage, coming closer to see the situation. Two guards were outside the building at the back entrance and one at the front.

Alex suddenly push Eliza into my arms taking me completely taking me off guard.

"I got a plan, just stay back" she issued before walking out not before making herself presentable "don't do anything stupid Alex" I whispered after her, she only winked completely ignoring my words.

Alex had a plan and seduction was her best bet yet. I Hoped to god for her safety, she walked out strolling causally pretending not to notice the guards, looking like a drunk who had a rough night.

"Stop right there lady, turn back the fuck you came" one said coldly lifting his gun without hesitation.

"Thomas don't speak to the nice lady like that, may I ask where you going so late at night miss" he asked coming a little closer lowering his gun. Alex smirk at the action playing a little more.

"I think I'm lost can you help me" she said twirling her loose strand around her finger, putting on a innocent act.

"I think you already found what you're looking for" he said lustfully his eyes roaming her body. If Alex didn't had life's on the line she would of wipe that look on his face.

"Looking for a good time baby?" she force out trying to sound seductive moving her hips as she walked closer, with her pretend drunk accent.

The guy only smirk giving his answer pulling her into his arms, completely captured by the beauty. He press his hard on so she felt exactly what she was doing to him.

Alex mentally gagged the disgust being unbearable.

"Don't mind if I do" he whispered nearing her ear as he lightly bit it. His friend scoffs in disbelief, bringing his mouth closer to her neck he bagan to suck on her flesh

But before he could register Alex kneed him having him double over taking his gun from his hand as she kick him hard in the stomach, pointing the gun in the direction of the other guard seeing him already aiming at her. She dodge his shot, shooting him without remorse turning back the gun to the guard on the ground, firing before he could attack.

"Its safe"

Ashton quickly move taking Eliza in his arms as the poor girl shook. Time was wasting as the guard at the front started shouting for help.

Alex ran straight for the waiting car starting the engine. She waited on Ashton to put Eliza down first before he could lock his door, Alex slam down on the gas paddle  speeding off.

Sounds of gunshot fired behind them, a close call for them.

"That was a close one... Are you okay Eliza" Alex question but only reseived a sob, what was she thinking asking her that, of course she wasn't okay.

She frowned at herself keeping her eyes locked on the road.

Ashton glance back at Eliza with her head down with light sobs he didn't dare question. Knowing she headed this to let out all that was caged up.

Under her mask of tears Eliza could only sob feeling that relief she felt cause her tears, that feeling of pressure being lifted. That long awaiting hope spreading through her body. Her family, she wanted to see her family.

She look out the window the lighten of the shy telling her the sun was about to rise. Her heart clenched all those days spent lock up she breath in the open air.

A smile spread across her face. That lost happiness now founded.

"T-thank y-you" she whispered genuinely wanted to go down on her knees and thank them.

"Its our job Ashton"

"Yeah, no need to thank us"

But she felt something worse within her relief.

A feeling she knew too well.

'He will be coming for her'
