Aiden: The Aftermath

"What in god's name did you just do kid?"

"What I needed to do, I killed Ramsey." I said with a smile.

"This man was an asset to us, a leader of men if I may add, and you just shot him in the head."

"To hell with your asset and all of you." I snapped at him "This man killed everyone I knew right in front of my eyes, I promised myself to kill him even if it meant my bloody end."

The man looked taken a back by what I said. Almost as if he saw the fire that was burning inside me, and in a weird way understood me and my reasoning.

"So leave me be, and let me get out of this hell hole." I said as I gently shrugged him off of me.

They just moved out of my way.

I made my way out through the way I came, I was thinking about many things.

I stepped out of the broken wall, the sun was glaring at me directly, a gentle cool breeze brushed against me as it sent a shiver down my spine.

"Jacket?" One of the men said as he extended his arm to me holding a jacket.

"Appreciated mate." I said as I took it.

It was black leather, no problem going along my all black outfit.

'Still thinking about fashion when it is the end of the world huh?' I asked myself as I giggled.

"What a shite few days." I said out loud thinking no one was near.

"I know right?" A girl's voice said from behind.

I turned around and saw perhaps the last person I was expecting, it sent joy up and down my body until I was jolting from happiness.

"How did you get out Jenna?" I said as I rushed to hug her.

"Oh... haha..." She giggled as she hugged back. "My sister took me and a few others out through a tunnel underneath the hotel, and there were a few vehicles parked there in case they needed them, and we are here now" She said as she let go of the hug.

"I'm so happy you are alive Jenna, you have no idea." I said as I grabbed her left hand with my right.

"I'm super glad you didn't get yourself killed trying to take out Ramsey." She said as she squeezed my right hand and grabbed my left.

I felt an incredible emotion rush as I felt myself leaning down to kiss her, I closed my eyes and out lips met. We let go a few seconds later as the other people were whistling and clapping while looking at us.

We both turned bright red in embarrassment and just hugged instead.

"CONGRATULATIONS." Everyone shouted as they added to our embarrassment.

"I love you." She whispered into my ear as she was hugging me.

"I love you too Jenna." I whispered in her ear the same way.

We let go after a minute or two, we just stared at each other and had the widest smiles on our faces while holding hands.

"I see, congrats you two." Sera said as she approached us.

"Thanks." I said as I rubbed the back of my head.

"So this was the reason, why you saved her." Sera said.

"What? No, no, no... I mean maybe... I... no that wasn't the reason..." I struggled to speak.

"Relax, I know, I'm just teasing you, but you are warned, you take care of her or I will make sure your head rests on a spike." Sera said seriously.

"That sounds comfy." I said sarcastically.

"Well, if you do that to him, then you have to do it to me too." Jenna said as she hugged me from the side.

"You will get what you wish for little sis." Sera said as she giggled a bit. "Really romantic that is." The three of us laughed.

"I have a car readied for the pair of you, just in case." Sera said with a warm smile.

"I was thinking about that, I can't stay around here anymore, nothing to stay for." I said as I looked at Jenna.

"And I will accompany you anywhere you go." She said as she planted a soft hiss on my lips.

"Well then, road trip it is." I said.

"There are 10 jerry cans of fuel at the back. For the tough times. Also, there are a few weapons and many duffles filled with food, I kind of foresaw this happening." Sera explained.

"Thanks a lot for this Sera, I will not forget this, ever." I said as I shook her hand.

Jenna went in to hug her as soon as I let go of the handshake.

"Take care of yourself Sera, stay alive 'till when we are back." Jenna said.

"I will, you worry about yourself and Aiden, and take care of each other." Sera said back.

They said their final goodbyes as we got into the land rover that was prepared for us, the keys were on the ignition and I just fired it up. We held hands as I slowly drove away from the great castle of the fallen savages...
