The yelling and panic overtook me. I was only 17 at the time, What should I do?! My mom was at the police station, Chelsea's mom was over my house!.. what should I do? I asked myself a lot at the time but Chelsea grabbed my shoulder and shook me. "Lily! Get ahold of yourself!.. Upstairs there's a phone and my moms gun. We're gonna be ok."
I nodded at her, Maria was screaming at the door. "Lily please! Listen to me for a second! You don't understand what your doing!" I didn't want to look back at the shaking door, I thought 'don't look back.' After what I saw, how could I? She was strangling Chelsea. We ran up the stairs and went for her moms room, I asked Chelsea, "why do you think Maria would just go crazy like that?! So suddenly!" Chelsea looked as confused as I was locking the door behind her, Maria finally broke into the house and ran upstairs after us on her moms door when I found the phone and finally called the police telling them where we were before Chelsea tried muttering to me looking at the banging door. "I have no clue! Maybe she's jealous of me, or maybe she wanted to kill you in that barn and go away free just like how she wanted to kill you in that bloody kitchen."
I was on the phone with the cops and dropped the phone when I realized it. I had the gun on me to, loaded but I froze... "Chelsea. I never mentioned a bloody kitchen anywhere to the police." I looked back at her and she was looking at me now and not the door." Maria on the other side just shouting no, I dropped the phone just froze up before she spoke. "Uh.. you mentioned it to me before, in school." My eyes were as wide as hers now, I just shook my head. "Your a liar.." Chelsea bent over and started laughing at me. "Your a moron Lily! You definitely mentioned it to me before!" She looked up at me smiling as I moved around the room to try and get to the door where Maria was still shouting and banging. Chelsea kept her eyes on me then down to my hand then back at me. "Give me the gun Lily."
Tears started running down my face, "Go to hell." I whispered it under my breath as Chelsea ran at me like a monster. Her arms out wide as I pulled the pin back on the gun and barely missed her head. Maria finally got the door open when Chelsea drove me out the 2nd story window. "LILY!" Maria tried to catch us both but missed us by a second. Chelsea landed on top of me in the grass, the wind knocked out of me. It hurt to breathe and I was trying to calm myself down from the betrayal I just experienced. I realized it in that bedroom, "It was you. The whole time..." few words could escape my mouth as I gasped for air in my hurt body. She got up and smiled at me, her eyes showed no remorse.
"You were always so good, weren't you? You had friends, a loving mother, and teachers even liked you. You always got along with everyone you goody two-shoes. I hated seeing you smile so happily like everything was ok and gonna be fine and that friend of yours, Maria couldn't even do her job right! Now I gotta clean everything up!" She looked angry at me laughing, "Don't you see Lily? This is all your fault."
I was confused at her actions but maybe it had made sense all along? I didn't know at all what was going on, her speech and my pain, the worry I had for Maria! Where was she at now? I couldn't think about much from everything happen. Chelsea took a knife before stabbing me in my stomach, the sharp pain. I didn't know how else to feel, it was uncomfortable and the chocking feeling from the wind still knocked out of me was fading. Like the stab took everything away, maybe my life was flashing through my eyes.. maybe it wasn't.. I just felt an uncomfortable pain when I heard her. My angel.. me and Chelsea looked up at her running, Maria tackled Chelsea off of me when I smiled. The knife was still barley inside me, I guess she didn't have enough time to pull it out and just reacted to the tackle. I grabbed the knife out of myself still trying to calm down, my head swayed as I thought I might pass out from all the excitement around me. My back hurt, luckily no glass really got me so I was good but they large cut in my stomach was making me lose blood and fast. At first all the adrenaline in me was just making the stab uncomfortable and more pressured feeling but now it was burning. While they were fighting my hands were holding myself over my stomach, I remember lifting my hand while it was covered in my own blood. My breathing was coming back now but I started panting from the blood, the stinging pain, the wild burn, the sensation in my stomach as blood came out of me. It hurt so bad before I knew it, Chelsea was winning the fight with another knife. Maria's right arm had gotten cut and she was pushed towards me. She almost fell on top of me but slightly moved outta the way and fell ahead on me to where Chelsea was near my feet and Maria was now above my head. We both were in bad shape but we did something, we made the connection. Just like in the hallways, our eyes connected and we nodded again. Of course the pain was excruciating, I hated it, but that didn't matter at that moment. The cut on my stomach really wasn't as deep as I thought it was to be and Chelsea was still out for our blood. Me still having the gun, I slid it to her on the ground while she grabbed the knife that was laying on the ground. I sat up with Maria behind me, I took the knife while she took the gun. Chelsea looked beyond mad at us now that we paired up. I think all of our eyes had the same blood-thirst and hate in them, "Let's go then. I have a job to finish, and Maria.. this will be your consequences for your actions, and for going against the rules of our sanctuary."
"I knew it was you.. the moment I seen you. I already knew your face because your one of the bastards that hurt my family. So don't think I'll go easy." For a brief moment, the world was quiet. After Maria had finished we all at-least kept eye contact with one another for a moment or so, the once was a cool breeze had gotten colder as the night tread on. A chill flew by as we didn't care, we were all focused on one another before Maria pulled the trigger and Chelsea came at us both. The pain from the sudden jerk, Maria pushed me out of the way and barley missed Chelsea's head again. They dodged each other skillfully until Maria got stabbed in her other arm. I sat back up a little ways away from them as Maria screamed out in pain as Chelsea turned the blade around and messed with it while it was still in her skin. That's when I couldn't take it anymore and yelled as well. "Lily Myers!!"
Chelsea stopped and took the knife out kicking Maria to the ground as they both looked at me. Maria looked weak from blood lose and shooting as many bullets from the hand gun as she did. Chelsea looked at me with wide eyes but I wasn't scarred this time around, those wild eyes that want your blood, to feel hunted by those eyes. It's the worst but I couldn't stop myself, maybe I wanted to be selfish and let Maria the and limp away or something but I couldn't just watch her die... after all, she saved me a lot of times now.. My Angel...
"My name! Is Lily Myers! And you've been paid to kill me! So get on with it then!" I paused between words. With the pain and blood, no matter what, I needed to stand! So I did and looked Chelsea right in the eyes. She stumbled towards me, we kept eye contact the closer she got. I didn't try to move away or run at all, dying for someone like Maria wouldn't be a bad way to go at all. So I stared my death in the eyes as it got closer then I heard it, BANG.
