POV THIRD PERSON JAKE: Jake looked up as the train doors slid open, revealing a tall, elegant figure. His eyes briefly swept the train. "Maisy," he said warily, as his sister ran past. "Maisy, Cass," he said again as Cass (his older sister) started to tickle Maisy.
The stranger snarled at Maisy. Maisy stopped laughing and sat sulkily in the corner of the carriage. Cass paced back and forth with an anxious look on her face.
"We'll never get there in time," she sighed as Maisy got up off her seat with a mischievous look on her face.
"Maisy'' Jake said wearily.
The little girl tiptoed over to the black-capped stranger.
"Excuse me?"Maisy said.
Jake lept just in time, as the stranger pulled a dense, black object from behind her jacket. A gun.
POV THIRD PERSON CASS: Cass watched in horror as the woman lined up her shot and fired. Her legs wouldn't listen. Her brain was screaming at her legs to move.
Finally her legs listened to her. She ducked and hit the ground with a yelp as the stranger fired another round.
This can't be happening! Cass's mind raced as she looked around for anything to defend herself. Anything! She caught sight of an old sign saying where the exit was. Yes! She looked around. The woman was closing in on Jake and Maisy. Maisy was crying uncontrollably. The woman was distracted. Now was her chance! She jumped, arms outstretched.
No! She fell to the ground with a thud. A warm slow trickle of blood stained her clothes. Her vision blurred. Her eyelids were getting heavy. Jake yelled and Maisy screamed. Cass was fighting hard to keep her eyes open. She just wanted to drift off to sleep.
POV THIRD PERSON: "NO!" Jake yelled as the woman laughed.
Cass lay in a heap on the floor, blood pouring out of the fresh bullet wound.
"Come on Cass, say something! Move! DO SOMETHING!" yelled Jake
"Cassy!" Maisy cried. "You promised!"
"You promised that you wouldn't leave like mum and dad! YOU PROMISED!" Jake yelled, tears dripping down his face.
"Pity. I was hoping for some more... action" the stranger said with a smirk.
"Well this is just so...fun" the killer said "Oh, and since none of you will make it out alive, my name is Jade".
'Jade' Jake thought. That name was all too familiar.
"No" Jack muttered 'She'll just catch us if we run'.
"Ugr, it's so hot" Jade said, taking off her coat. "Don't move" she said, pointing the gun at Jake and Maisy, as she hurriedly gagged and tied them up.
"I am going to see how much longer there is till our next stop."
"As soon as Jade had gone, Jake spat out his gag "Ha, you would have thought it smart to check if we were properly tied" he said, pleased with himself.
He swiftly untied Maisy and told her to stay quiet. Cass he thought urgently. The nearest doctor was about 8km's away. He checked her pulse.
"No!"
Jake's heart sank. He knew he had to stay strong for Maisy..
"Is Cassy alright?" Maisy asked.
"Maisy, we need to go" said Jake urgently
"But what about Cassy?" Demanded Maisy.
"SHE'S DEAD OK" yelled Jake "and it's my fault. We need to go"
"B-But what about Cassy?"
"Now Maisy"
They climbed out onto the little balcony in between the carriages and jumped.
."I will find you again...Jake" whispered Jade as she watched them run towards the distant town "...and you will be mine."
