The Gangleader Paction

Chapter 29: ➢ Some Home Alone Shit

Okay, so I was a little overjoyed but still!

That two-timing little rodent used me as bait! Xavier needed Argent to invite me here, he needed me to be here right now. Everything was going right as he planned and he betted my stupid featherhead on it!

It was slowly making sense to me. Xavier had the ticket to come here, but I've seen the tickets myself and there's no address written on them, hell I don't even know where this party is. Xavier needed Argent to take me here so he could track Argent down.

But at the same time, Argent knew Xavier would find him if he was aware of my being here...wait...Did Xavier's plan fail? Oh my god, had Argent figured it out? Xavier was still going to fricken die that moron!

I need to get out of here. I needed to tell him not to come, that Argent was expecting him! I turned my head back to the guards muttering between each other in front of the door, rifles armed and loaded. 

Come on Skyler think! Think think think! I was gazing around frantically trying to devise a plan to get out of here. I felt like Lady Bug using her lucky charm.

Except in this scenario, no object I was looking at was glowing in red and black polka dots.

Think Skyler, what could you use? My eyes caught sight of the only other door in the room aside from the main one and immediately felt the idea form in my small brain.

Lightbulb...

My eyes flicked opened and I quickly gazed up at the guards, preoccupied in front of me. "Excuse me," I said nervously as they gazed at me, "I need to pee,"

Yes seriously. This was the best I could come up with. I was no genius setter, I'm the clumsy middle blocker.

"Hold it in," One of them replied deadpan and my jaw dropped. Wow, no decency for my small bladder.

"But please, the bathroom is like right there, Argent wouldn't even notice," I begged, pointing at the small attached bathroom door to my immediate left. The guy on the left...

Let's call him Lefty. Brings back memories huh?

...gazed at me with clear annoyance in his eyes before giving me a sigh. "Alright, but don't try anything, we will shoot,"

I nodded, my breath hitched in my throat as the guy on the right...Righty? stalked towards me, grabbing my bicep as he forced me to stand up.

Owie my arm.

"You have 2 minutes, any longer and we'll break the door," He told me in an irritated tone as he pushed me inside the marble bathroom possibly the same size as my entire house. If I wasn't supposed to be tending to my escape I would've totally taken a dip in the jacuzzi. 

I ran towards the sink and turned the water on so it was a small stream, enough to make it seem like the sound of someone peeing.

I had 2 minutes.

With no time to waste, I ran to the shower grabbing the bottle of untouched body wash that was chilling on the bench. Trying to make as minimal sound as possible I squirted some of the ground nearest to the window that leads to the outside of the mansion. Cupping my hand, I poured some water from the running tap into the ground, using my hand to rub it into the tiles so it doesn't look obvious.

"Come out girl, you have 30 seconds remaining!" One of the guards boomed, slamming their fists on the door, giving me a warning.

Ughhhh. Almost done.

Trying not to slip me on the wet floor, I hobbled towards the window, throwing it open. The cold breeze outside rushed in and I shuddered, mentally cursing myself that I'm even doing this.
