Chapter 41

JOHN'S POV

I'd spent the past few days trying to assure Ella that I would find her sister.

I managed to persuade her to go to school today because she'd missed so much.

"I've got something". Jason bursted into my office. His hair was all over his face from gripping in frustration. Much like mine.

"What is it?"

"There is a warehouse behind the three cell towers that's been abandoned for a few years. I'm pretty sure that were they are*.

Getting up,I grabbed the gun from my office safe. I'd never shot the thing but I would to save Jasmine.

"Call the police. Tell them to meet us there".

The police were on their way.

When we got there,we snuck into the warehouse. Michael was stood outside a door.

Before he could try anything, Jason has already knocked him out. Bursting through the door,the scene was unexpected.

Jasmine stood over Owen, holding the gun while he held his bloody nose.

"Don't move. You know,this is exactly how it should be. I could shoot you right now and it will be justice for mom. What do you think?" she said, tilting her head and aiming it at his head.

I couldn't let her do this. She would never forgive herself.

"Jasmine, don't. it won't make it any better. Trust me. The police are here, they'll take him. You don't want this on your conscience". spoke slowly walked towards her.

I put my hand on her arm slowly and took the gun out of her hand.

JASMINE'S POV

As John hugged me and we started to leave,a shot was fired.

There were shouts and John look terrified. I looked around to see who had been shot, thinking Owen has killed himself.

But everyone was fine.

Looking at John again,he held me as I dropped to the ground.

Sorry guys for the late updates, classes have been stressing but I promise to drop two chapters daily.
