Elias

I hear Russian voices outside of the office. I can't actually hear what they're saying, their voices are to low. I hold my breath, hoping they don't come into the office.

But is luck on my side?

No.

They walk into the office, I hear papers rustling and they're talking to each other in what I'm guessing is Russian.

I peak my head out and see two men, all dressed in black, with bullet proof vests on.

But no helmets.

I count to three before pushing up onto my knees, using the desk as cover as I aim for there heads.

One

Two

Dead.

Headshots is what kills them. They might have bulletproof vests but they have nothing covering their heads. Before they could even blink, before recognizing that I was here they were dead.

I went to their bodies and checked them for weapons. I grabbed their ammo, noticing it could work with the gun I have in my hand.

I walk outside the office and check the corners, I hear voices to my left, I have to go down that hallway to get to the living room.

To get to my family

I walk down the hallway, keeping my steps light and silent. I stop at the corner listening for voices. I hear quite a few, some I recognize as my family.

They're arguing, trying to fight. I peek my head out around the corner and see 20 men in black holding my cousins, Tia and Leo at gun point. They're all on their knees, hands tied behind their back.

I back up slowly, going back up to my room as I pace.

What do I do?

What can I do?

Where's Alvaro? Alencio? Manuel?

Where is everybody??

I hear footsteps coming down my hallway and I panicked, hiding behind the door.

"Elias? Where are you?" I hear a familiar voice tease.

Elijah.

I grit my teeth and wait, the proper way to kill a persons is patience, let them make a mistake and catch them.

I see as two guards walk into my room, looking through the crack in my door I see two more and Elijah.

Shit, I'm so fucking outnumbered.

The door covers me. It's wide open and luckily there's a corner that makes it hard to see anything behind the door.

"I saw on the cameras boss. He ran down this hallway." A rough voice says.

I grip my gun and knife. Holding them like I've seen assassins do in the movies.

"Well then I suggest you find him. I want to have a friendly conversation with him."Elijah says.

They take my room apart, moving furniture over, tearing up pillows.

"You two, with me. We will check his brother's rooms. See if he's hiding in there." Elijah says as two of them walk out with him.

I sigh as I wait for them to leave.

"He has to be in here. I saw him walk down this hallway." One of the voice says.

I push the door a crack so I can see the men in the room.

My heart pounds in my chest, anxiety making my arms tingle.

I breathe quietly, waiting for them both to have their backs to me.

It takes a minute before both of their backs are turned.

I pounce the second I get the chance.

I jump on the closest man, stabbing him in the throat. He groans loudly, chocking on his blood.

His friend turns his head, gun raised, but I jump towards him.

If a gun goes off Elijah will come running.

I stab him in the side, he grunts before punching me with the butt of his gun.

I stumble slightly before twisting his wrist, making his hand spasm and dropping the gun.

I stab him again in the arm, he yells out before grabbing my knife.

Nobody touches my knife.

I grab his hands pulling them away from each other before head butting him hard.

He falls down I climb on top of him. I grab my knife from out of his arm and slit his throat with it. His blood sprays all over me as he chokes on his blood.

He dies seconds later.

I stand up before grabbing the knives from his body.

I walk out of my room, wiping the blood from my eyes and I walk silently across the hall, making my way down the rooms until I come across Leo's room.

One man is in there.

I slide into the room hotly, his back to me.

I kill him quickly.

I walk towards Alvaros room before only seeing the other guard. No Elijah.

The guard see's me and runs towards me.

I grab one of the knives I stole from the other man before throwing it at him. We're to close for him to truly dodge it.

It enters in his shoulder.

He yells out but not slowing down.

I run around him, trying to dodge him.

He must have orders not to shoot me because he doesn't reach for his gun.

We go back and forth punching and wrestling.

He ends up on top of me, straddling my hips, keeping me pinned.

"Not so strong now huh?" He taunts.

I spit in his face, making him cringe back before leaning down over me, about to punch me with his free hand.

I rear my head up and head butt him.

Fuck my head hurts.

Safe to say head-butting hurts both parties involved. But my forehead hits his nose, breaking it.

He yells out and I take the opportunity to wrench my hands out from his grip before punching him over and over.

I roll us over before punching him.

Over and over.

He yells out in pain, trying to hit me but I've been hit harder.

I don't falter until he passes out, eyes too swollen to see through.

I grab my knife before slicing his throat again, blood covers me.

I stand up, my vision blurring as I do so.

I grab his knives and his gun before walking towards the living room.

I see a similar scene to before except my entire family is on their knees.

All of my brothers have bruises forming all over their bodies, Alvaro bleeding from his head.

Manuel is unconscious and Tio Emilio and Tia Lucia are holding hands, 4 guards covering them.

Alencio sees me and tenses. Slightly shaking his head.

"I asked where IS ELIAS??" Elijah screams. He's holding a knife to Santiagos neck.

"I told you he escaped already. I had my guards take him away as soon as the alarm went off." Alvaro says calmly.

"I know thats a lie, I saw on the cameras him walking around, killing MY men." Elijah says.

Alvaro stays silent. I notice how nobody can see me, or is trying to. Elijah is closet to me. He's right next to the corner where I am hiding, the balcony right behind him.

There's the balcony behind him.

If I can run at him fats enough it will shock him and his guards. He will have no time to react before I push him out the window.

But Santiago is right there.

I glance back at Alencio and motion towards Santiago.

He looks at me from the corner of his eyes. Slightly shaking his head.

"What are you shaking your head for Alencio?" Elijah asks.

Alencio chuckles. "Your plan will never work. You think holding Santiago at knife point is supposed to scare us? Thats a normal Tuesday for us." Alencio says.

I can see the shift in Elijahs body, he throws Santiago forwards and I don't hesitate. I run at him, surprising everyone in the room. I push us through the window and off the balcony.

We both fall. Elijah breaks my fall, coughing and groaning, I immediately get off him and start running, bullets flying past me.

"YOU CAN'T RUN FOREVER ELIAS!! WE WILL FIND YOU EVENTUALLY!" He yells out.

My head pounds as I run towards the woods. Suddenly a bullet catches me in my shoulder. My bad shoulder.

I stumble slightly but continue running. I hear voices yelling, footsteps pounding, guns going off.

But I don't stop. I run as fast as I can, time blurring.

I feel my body tiring, I can't keep up with this for much longer.

I hear yelling behind me and I immediately run towards a tree to my right. I climb it as best as I can, my shoulder on fire.

Once I think I'm high enough I stop, catching my breath. My body shaking.

"Where did he go?" One guy asks.

"I think he went this way." Another one said before running off again.

I hold my breath as 20 more guards rush past the tree I'm hanging to, all going in different directions.

As I sit in the tree I see the orange glow in the sky, the temperature dropping.

I refuse to get out of this tree. Not until I'm not shaking.

But I might not stop, it's going to get even colder once the sun sets.

I glance at my shoulder, and see the blood dripping down. I tear off a piece of my shirt using my knife and create a tourniquet. I don;t see an exit wound but I can't focus on that right now.

My shoulder just got better...

I grumble slightly before tearing off some of the fabric from my pants, packing the wound. I try not to grunt but it hurts like a bitch.

When I don't hear any sounds except the birds I climb down from the tree. I walk back the way I came, being as quiet as possible.

A few minutes later the house comes into sight. Dead bodies litter the yard.

I take a breath before running so fast as I can back to the house.

I don't hear any sounds.

I quietly run back upstairs to the sitting room, anxiety gripping my body with every step.

What if they're dead?

What if I find their bodies on the floor?

My breathing quickens the closer I get. I close my eyes before walking into the room.

My body sags with relief as I don't see their bodies.

Only the men in black.

I start crying in relief as exhaustion hits me.

My body becomes sluggish, my head is swimming.

I can't pass out now.

I need to get out of here.

I push through the pain and exhaustion, my adrenaline wearing off.

I see the shadows morph into people but I ignore them.

They're not real, they' re not real, they're not real.

I tell myself as I walk down the hallway into my bedroom.

I grab the bag I originally packed before immediately walking towards the garage.

Where is everybody?...

There's none of Elijahs men, none of my family...

It's like it was abandoned.

I was abandoned.

The thought made tears appear in my eyes as I walk through the garage, trying to open doors to the cars.

I knew my family was rich but....

Hot damn...

These cars are gorgeous, but none of them are unlocked.

All but one.

A matte black Bugatti Veyron Super Sports doors are unlocked. (I literally just googled random fast sports cars)

I slide into the drivers seat, finding the keys in the console.

As soon as I start the car I'm off.

I've never actually driven a car but

No time like the present to learn right?

I fly through the driveway.

I steer as best as I can but I keep twisting it every which way, making the car turn hard.

I see the gates ahead and I press the gas all the way down.

I close my eyes as I drive through the gates.

The car drives through them but it dents the front of the car and cracks the windshield.

I drive as fast as I can down the road, I have no idea where I'm going.

My eyes well up with tears as I am reminded that I'm alone, again.

I have no money, no family, no documents, nothing.

What the fuck am I supposed to do?
