Declaration of the Play : Part 2

"We'll be going against the whole government, including the president. Attacking the president means that we will attack the whole country." Adreanna reloaded her guns as she spoke, focusing on every weapon on top of the table.

"Okay." Axel hummed, mismatched eyes locking on the apartment floor. His feet were dangling on the edge of the bed as he sat there.

"I'll protect you, I promise." Adreanna quickly chimed in, putting down the weapon in her hand.

She walked toward Axel slowly and sat beside him. With an emotionless face that did not match her act right now, she put a hand on his shoulder, trying to comfort the boy.

That was what Maera taught her to do. Her friend used to comfort her this way. She never thought that she would use the serial killer's method like this.

"I'll stay by your side. So don't worry about anything, okay?" Adreanna softly spoke. It would sound really nice and sweet if her voice were not toneless.
