Bang.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAl4hY4vYzJn
One clench of a finger was enough to take a life. A small action powerful enough to take away a human existence. Evil enough to kill the vision of a brighter future.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAxYt6aOnvOY
When everyone finally opened their eyes to see the consequence of the gunshot, it was too late to save each memory of the horrid sight.
190Please respect copyright.PENANASHjf3kE5rB
Anika had stopped running up the stairs looking at her son who laid on the ground. His sight went up to meet her before a wail came from the young boy's mouth.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAi30jUg8eB7
"No!" Hope screamed as the leader fell to the flooring of the steps. Anika held onto the bloody gap in the middle of her body as her family and comrades gathered around her.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAA4dzjyh3dD
Deshi and Tanya held onto a crying hope and Hashim as they cried into the body of the leader. After several calming shushes from the half-dead woman they were dragged away by Deshi as requested. No one should have to see their girlfriend or mother die.
190Please respect copyright.PENANASlIKENswbu
As her breathing got shallow and eyes started to droop, Anika held her hand out for Tanya to take. The teenager complied, squeezing it as hard as she could trying to channel the life she had into the dying body. To no avail, the body only got colder.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAHnTYIInstR
"I'm sorry! If it wasn't for me you would be fine!" Tanya shouted through her tears, high pitched sniffles in between.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAav0Z5eCD8X
"It's not your fault."
190Please respect copyright.PENANAiJssSkcydy
"But you came to save me and are dying because of it!"
190Please respect copyright.PENANAuAzJr9upU5
Anika looked straight into the younger's eyes, using all of her strength to clasp onto the hand she held a little tighter.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZhTm5kkxh
"And I would do it again to save you...
190Please respect copyright.PENANA7r32PJnc9J
President Tanya."
190Please respect copyright.PENANAeeotVN2FcQ
With that, no more breath remained. Anika's hand fell slowly to the floor dripping in the dark, red liquid which oozed from her chest.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA2Le6zqRtaq
The leader was dead.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAzy1NM7NG0u
Tanya screamed one last time with all of her anger, frustration, and pain before getting up. She wiped her tears as her exhales of breath got harsher with fury. Knowing what needed to be done the teen got up.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAJXJkjMb92W
Walking back up the stairs, no emotions wrote on her face and looked at the hallway she had come out from. Before slowly marching forward, her head turned to the balcony letting the vision of a smug Frost come to light. He stared back with a smirk until turning around to walk into the hallways, silently accepting the challenge Tanya had put forward.
190Please respect copyright.PENANADLoFNzpkjA
She stared back down the hallway, footsteps getting louder. The army was coming. Tanya felt two hands place on both shoulders. To her left, Hope. To her right, Deshi.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA1AlcoPFTo3
"Los Elementos son superiores." Hope whispered, hate towards the people they were about to face apparent in her voice.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA4NXtpmxBFX
"Los elementos son superiores." Both Deshi and Tanya replied.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAunIeWB3NLC
Running forward, each brought out their gun and aimed until they were met face to face with the soldiers. There were too many to take but the trio sure as hell would give it a try. Battle cries ripped through the air as bullets flew. Each took cover until open spots for shooting were available.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAnc4vhNLOAQ
Tanya was exterminating the soldiers until her gun ran out. Unfortunately, Hope and Deshi needed reloading too. Frost's army advanced, walking up to the three jeering with power.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAoj8MFqU8UM
The pack rattled their guns on the window, which had let small lighting into the room. They dragged on about how Frost was a savior and had brought them to this.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA8Kg4kTY9rC
"This is your end. Any last words." One gruff voice boomed.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAEIpovDkXHn
A small cloud dawned the window creating a dull grey in the hall. The atmosphere tensed as the Tanya stood up, hands raised above her head, from the place she had hidden and walked into the cleared space. She smiled.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA3SR0OglkIW
"Hope you enjoy hell motherfuckers."
190Please respect copyright.PENANAZUi2BYATVl
Deshi and Hope's eyes locked in confusion until a thunderous crash came from the window. Elementa stormed into the hallway and dragged the soldiers about. Using lightning bolts, she aimed straight at the group's hearts. With the remaining soldiers, an almighty wind blew them against the wall hitting each head harshly. The lifeless bodies fell to the ground.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAn4DdCbiuQT
Ellie looked at the trio, one small water droplet cascading from her eye. Tanya pulled her sleeve over her arm and wiped the tear away.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA5FGJbFGywG
"She will be avenged. So will anyone who has ever died at the hands of Frost." The teen spoke quietly. She wouldn't stop until justice took place.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAaBttQuL9AU
Another wave of fighters could be heard coming down the halls. Deshi turned to the younger girl and yelled for her to go. Tanya looked around before speeding off down a corner taking her to the final battle. Deshi, Hope, and Ellie would stay and hold back anyone who could interfere.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAHV16ZELQ1a
It was finally time.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAHvqQxDcSN7

190Please respect copyright.PENANAw5d8vaozxo
Tanya reached the dull, gloomy corridors in a matter of minutes. Breezes of cold danced on the skin revealed by her top. Goosebumps rose as the faint sound of gunshots blared from the distance.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA0PK7xverHS
"Looking for me?" Frost appeared from the shadows. Body paper-thin and eyes as dark as the devil.
190Please respect copyright.PENANATVUvDUNxpD
"I was wondering when we would meet again." Tanya stayed silent.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAgHLL0m7Bru
"Not going to talk?" Again no reaction.
190Please respect copyright.PENANABUkNsyMz8m
"Well, then I guess this will be an easy kill." He chuckled, taking strides down the hallway.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA6W8XYGxXiu
This was interrupted by a bullet ringing through the air. Tanya looked behind her to find Hashim, tears in his eyes and stains ran down his cheeks, with a gun in his hand. Ready and aimed at Frost, the boy was ready to kill.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAifZuSaafm9
Tanya approached the young boy with her hands held out in front of her. She cautiously moved to notice a small writing pad and pen hanging from his left hand. Anika must have brought it to return to her son. Only she would never write in it again.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAG4HGP0Ll3i
Taking both, Tanya wrote the word don't onto the paper.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAn8UI8uPG15
"Why?" Hashim signed. Tanya slowly went for the gun again, trying to grasp it and take it away from the boy. However, she was met with a small struggle from the latter who would not give up the machine by any means.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAjfU2tgqxyg
"Give me one good reason not to kill him! He killed all of my parents and now it's his time to die!" Hashim had started emphasizing his sign showing the frustration held within him.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAT0k25FsAKp
Tanya slowly scribbled onto the pad and held it up, speaking out the words as she did, letting both the boy and president know what she refused to let happen.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAV1AgSegqPj
"I won't let another kid become a killer."
190Please respect copyright.PENANAyD10GINAtt
The boy slowly broke down into the teen's arms as she took the gun from his grasp. Walking over to a small room off the side of the hallway, she placed Hashim in it and closed the door. But as soon as she had a hand flew into her face and smacked her onto the ground.
190Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZnWUVmDQv
Tanya got back up and charged at the man, pushing all of her weight into him causing him to slam into the wall behind him. They both advanced again, fists flying at each other's bodies. Tanya ducked, kicking Frost's legs to allow him to crash onto the floor.
190Please respect copyright.PENANATZTpVh4M4v
He sat up quickly, throwing a harsh punch to Tanya's face. She collapsed back onto the hard concrete feeling a small run of liquid fall from her lip and nose. Trying to regain strength, she slowly got to her feet only to be lifted by her neck and pulled into the president's arms.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAvKWkoXWlar
Her back was clutched against his chest and a skinny but strong arm had detained the teen in his grasp. The other arm was poked into her chest as the breath slowly decreased from the power of the president's arm.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAn6I3xUOuJp
"I always liked you." An eerie mutter filled Tanya's ear. The warm breath exhaled onto her neck and ears. Poisonous words flowed from his thin lips to which she felt every motion.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAPOLTITi9uG
"To think you were my favourite." She scrambled to try and get away from his grasp but all were failing.
190Please respect copyright.PENANABXJvcq5L6y
He pulled her closer.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAsmD7wk9FCz
"And now... I'm going to tear you apart. Just like I did to every single family on earth."
190Please respect copyright.PENANAD8CTX7YDRk
Tanya grunted in hatred.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAqPziAkdw7j
"Just like I did when I shot Anika."
190Please respect copyright.PENANA9zg6hHOXK8
Tanya gained strength through her intense enrage and raised her arm to elbow Frost in his stomach. She punched him hard again in the same place as to let him topple to the ground. She straddled him, harshly gripping around his neck.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAaRYh7zTccB
Smashing his head on the floor multiple times, she leaned in tightening her grip.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAnDKIo9puV1
"I want this to be the last thing you hear."
190Please respect copyright.PENANA5c2uzbC5Fq
Tanya leaned in closer as he grasped onto the last specks of air he would breathe.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAYaHulDDF38
"How does it feel to lose everything?"
190Please respect copyright.PENANAlZky1fhmUw
She slowly lifted her head back up to see his eyes widen in fear until they don't contort again. His head fell to the side. Tanya stood up and walked to the door. Before clutching onto the handle she walked back to the body of the president and kicked it hard enough to turn the dead body over.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAibefVK41s7
"And that's for Anika."
190Please respect copyright.PENANAyEVnPIKVQq
She returned to the door and opened it to see Hashim on the floor curled on the floor. He looked up and ran to the girl he had waited for. They stepped back into the hallway, hand in hand, looking at the way they were going to leave.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAb5U2UNt83D
Before they had fully left the long hallway Hope and Deshi came into sight. They looked behind the two to see the dead body on the floor.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAS4XHARv6tj
"Did Hashim see it?" Hope asked.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAr2fDRFFujK
"No," Tanya spoke bluntly.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAQJdalHasLP
"So we are safe now?" Deshi voiced his cautions.
190Please respect copyright.PENANACj4y8nwSMq
"We're safe." Tanya replied.
190Please respect copyright.PENANAvedXMyljBz
"Jasper Frost is dead."
