"First of all...Who are you working for" I said
"oh...would you love to know" laughed Miles
"Actually I would, that's why I asked" I said
"I work for your friend Fisher, but I think you already know who he works for" said Miles, Grinning
I was right, Mr. Delacroix's alive, but how? That fall should've killed him. Abby looked at me with fear in her eyes, I knew she was scared of him, and so was I, I looked back at Miles.
"So Mr. Delacroix is still alive.. Last I checked he was supposed to be dead" I said
"Well...sounds like you didn't do an outstanding job killing him" laughed Miles
Miles looked back at me, with a cold, dark stare
"It won't matter anyway since you won't get the chance again." said Miles
I saw black SUV's pull up, surrounding Abby and I. Armed soldiers with rifles came out, their guns aimed and us. I stuck my arm out so Abby would get behind me she covered her hands in a purple aura, Ready for a fight, but I couldn't move after that, I was scared.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you" Someone said
The voice came from behind me, so I turned around as fast as I could, and I saw the person that made my blood turn cold, the man who took Abby, the man who was supposed to be dead, Delacroix.
"Mr. Delacroix" I said with hatred in my voice
I rushed over to him, without my control, I couldn't control my body, but as if he already knew I was coming, He grabbed me by the arm and threw me, I flew back and hit the ground
"Rick!!" cried Abby
"No! Stop!" I cried in my head
I got up and charged towards Mr. Delacroix again, I couldn't stop. When I reached him I didn't have to react before he threw a rope around my neck, it pulled me to the ground. Mr. Delacroix then started to pull me by that rope, I couldn't breathe.
"No!!!" shouted Abby, desperately.
Abby ran towards Mr. Delacroix pulling her arm back to punch him, but Miles was in front of her, faster than she could react, he kicked her in the gut causing her to slide back to where she was, she let out a sharp cough from the hit, I struggled to talk, and also to get free
"Don't...you lay...a...finger on her" I said, my voice all raspy.
"Tie her up and put her in the trunk, we'll leave once I'm done with this corpse!" Mr. Delacroix shouted
He threw the rope, the rope went up and wrapped around one of the thick branches, He walked over to the other side and pulled it from the other side, my body started to rise as I felt the air from my lungs escape out of my mouth. I couldn't breathe, the more I squirmed, the more air that left my lungs. I tried controlling my body...but it was as if it was moving on its own. I'm gonna die from hanging. Mr. Delacroix finished tying the rope and made his way back to his army.
"Hey! I hope we can "hang" out some other time, but I doubt it because you're bound to die from asphyxiation." laughed Mr. Delacroix
I saw them take off with Abby in the trunk, and I was left there to die, My vision started to fade as more oxygen left my body, It didn't take long before everything went black
