I stood up, thinking fast.

I smirked, and put my shoulders back, showing I wasn't afraid of them.

"What are you doing here? You said you left," Kai says.

"I came to speak to Lloyd. And unless you want more havoc to deal with, he better be in front of the bank- alone-at nine thirty tonight."

Before they could respond, I teleported a few feet behind a building, invisible from view. I mentally punished myself for being so stupid as to get caught.

But for now, I have to leave. I can't stay here.

Quietly, I start to make my way to the towns' main restaurant.

63 hours.

-Later-

Ugh, I should have just attacked them. My wounds are healed, I've been allowed a bit more rest now. I know I could have beaten them, so what stopped me? Fear? Weakness? Do I still have anything for Lloyd?

No. He left. Who cares if he tried to come back? You can't put a band- aid on a bullet wound. He needs to learn that.

I sigh, and stand up as I see a figure moving towards me.

"Bout time," I grumble.

"Vi, please what happened? You can trust me, I'm your brother!"

I glare at Lloyd, "You were never. My family is dead. I trust nobody."

He stops running a few yards away, obviously hurt.

"Oh, stop whining. I have something to show you," I say, needing him to want to spend time with me. Just act like this is the last time he'll ever see me. Easy.

He perks up a bit and takes a step forward. "Yeah? What is it?"

I motion for him to follow me, and start jogging off towards our old house. Where he had left.

We were almost there, just over a hill and you could see it.

I turn to face him. "Blindfold," I say pulling one out of my pocket.

He seemed a little tense, but allowed it nonetheless.

I was about to tie it when I noticed an earpiece. I quickly took it off, inspecting it. After a little thought I found it was a tracker.

Crap, I thought, as I saw four figures in the distance, our anger matching in levels.
