Chapter Fifty-Five

Emma's POV

*****Flashback continues*****

"Please, my son has nothing to do with this, killing him would gain you nothing, nothing but more bloods on your hands. My son is one of the most intelligent kids in the world right now, killing him would only attract unnecessary attention." Mrs Sanchez said and he sighed.

"Take some of the men with you and go bring his luggage from their car James." William Sanders said and I heard some men leave the house.

Minutes later, they came back with the luggage and Mr Sanchez took the injection from the luggage and injected Alex.

"So?" William Sanders asked.

"It's going to take sometime to start working and I suggest he should be taken out of here before that happens" Mr Sanchez said.

"I'm not leaving you guys Dad" Alex said.

"And the son remains adamant but I really have no time to waste anymore, kill them all James." William Sanders said and we suddenly heard two gunshots.

"Mom! Dad!!" Alex yelled and I tried to stand up but my parents held me down.

"I said kill them all James, the child is still alive" William Sanders said

"He has already been injected by the drug, he's going to forget all this so is there really any need to kill him?" The man he called James asked.

"I can't take any chances so kill him." William Sanders said and I quickly tried to stand up but my parents held me down.

"We are going to save Alex. Immediately I call you, come out, take Alex's hand and run as fast as you can away from here" Dad whispered.

"What are you going to do?" I asked and Mom gave me a kiss on the forehead.

"I love you sweetheart, remember that." Mom said and they both stood up out of our hiding place.

"Who the hell are you guys?" James asked.

"It doesn't matter, kill them" William Sanders said.

Dad quickly tried to fight the man with the gun and Mom quickly called my name.

I ran out of the sofa and grabbed Alex's hand and quickly ran out of the house.

One of the men tried to shoot us but Mom put herself in the way.

I heard another gunshot as we ran and I knew both my parents was dead yet I couldn't stop. I ran with Alex as fast as I can as the men chased us.

We ran into the woods and we hid under a big rock.

William Sanders and his men ran to where we were but they couldn't see us hiding under the rock.

"Maybe we should just stop chasing after them, the boy is gonna forget everything after all." I heard James say.

"I agree but I'm more worried about the girl than ran with him, she knows everything and we must find her." William Sanders said and then walked past us.

We waited for some minutes and we started running in the opposite direction of where they went.

We ran for long not knowing where and when to stop.

It was almost morning and we finally sat down to rest under a tree by the roadside.

"I'm starting to get dizzy Julia, I think Dad's medicine is working, am I really going to forget everything?" Alex asked.

"I think so, your Dad clearly said you'll forget everything that happened tonight."

"But I don't want to forget, I want to remember everything, I need to remember so that I can get back at those who killed my parents." Alex said.

"I'll get them for you Alex, for us but for now, I think we have to go our separate ways, when the time comes for us to get our revenge, I'll come find you." I said and he looked at me surprised.

"Separate? Are you going to leave me? Please don't leave me Julia, do not leave me." Alex pleaded weakly and a tear rolled down my face.

"I can't stay with you Alex, it's not safe, you heard William Sanders back then, they don't care about you cause you are going to forget everything but they have to find me that's why I have to stay away from you to keep you safe." I said but Alex couldn't answer he was slowly becoming unconscious.

"We will get our revenge Alex, stay safe till then." I said as I managed to carry him to the middle of the road and I hid behind the trees watching him. I only left when a man found him and called the police.
