Silver Lining: The Haunted

Ch.21-Who Do You Work For?

"Shit that thing is back what the hell! Grab him and go!" The older man commanded and was probably in charge of the two of them by the way he was acting.

~Drake~

Grab who?! That's it I'm not having it. The one man who I could now see clearer went in one direction as the other faced me.

"Mia take them and run! Drake get out of here!" Grayson shouted while going after the second man.

"ØÑ!"

'Kill...'

'Just do I know you want too'

'Tiny humans!'

Everything quickly started to spin briefly before anger took over again.

"Leave my family alone!"

~Mia~

This is bad. Very very bad! I grabbed Armens wrist and proceded to get Colin. When I tried to pull him in the other direction like Grayson said he didn't move.

"Colin! We need to listen to Grayson and run!" I attempted to pull him Again but he didn't move. Getting aggravated I looked him in the eyes. I stopped myself from saying anything when I saw the blank, eerie look on his face.

"Leave my family alone!"

Me and Armen both froze in our places and looked at each other and behind us at the sound of the voice.

"Mia? Did Drake just-?"

"Armen it doesn't matter lets just run! Colin come on!" Without hesitating I pulled both of them in the other direction as hard as I could to get them running.

"Mia go!" Grayson shouted behind us. I didn't look back as I ran with Colin and Armen. Please Grayson and Drake please be ok. I swear to god if one of you gets hurt I might just smack you when we find each other again.

~15 minutes later~

Out of breath and tired we had to stop. I put my hands in my knees breathing rather hard. I looked back up to see Armen and Colin trying to catch their breath as well.

"Is it safe?" Armen asked between breaths.

"I think so. I hope that it was just the two of them. I hope Drake and Grayson are ok." I admitted. My heart was racing a million miles a minute and I was feeling light headed.

"Dont worry they'll be fine." Colin finally spoke up.

"Colin are you ok? You had this blank stare on your face before we ran."

"Mia I'm fine. Sorry I think I just kinda zoned out for a second." He looked at me in the eyes and smiled. I felt a little better now that we were all ok.

*snap*

"What was that?" Armen whispered in a low voice.

I shook my head letting him know that I didn't know. "I don't think it would be Grayson. He would let us know that it was him."

Foot steps became apparent and they sound like they were circling us. Were there more people out here other than this two men? Crap. I drew my sword and stayed silent. Armen and Colin didn't have one so I was the only one with a weapon.

"Drop the sword and no one gets hurt. What's a pretty little thang like you doing with a sword anyway? Fighting  is a mans job sweetheart." A mans voice spoke up making chills go down my spine.

"We don't want trouble. Just leave us alone! And don't call me sweetheart." I called out. What he said made me less afraid now and more annoyed than anything. Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I can't fight!

"We'll have it your way." He spoke again. Just as he stared to laugh about five people came down from the trees armed with swords and bows. 5 v 3. Great! Especially since only one of us has a weapon!

"Mia!" Grayson? "Mia! There more of them!" Grayson shouted in the distance. He sounded father away. He wasn't going to make it in time. Is had two people in me and the rest wee on. Colin and Armen.

"Mia I can't hold them off!" Armen was now pinned by one of them and another had grabbed Colin and called over the third one for help.

"We got him! Knock the other two out and go! We head back and give this one to the boss!"

Before I could react to the mans command everything went dark.
