   "Do you have that gut feeling that something bad is gonna happen?" Harry asked quietly, as I frowned and pondered for a second.

   "I don't actually."

   "Really?" Harry arched his brows. I nodded.

   "Yeah, I don't feel it. I think we're gonna be alright, Harry," I told him honestly, cupping his cheek and leaning forwards to kiss his soft lips reassuringly. "Now go to sleep, we both need a lot of rest."

   "Alright," Harry whispered with a nod, turning his head to the side and pressing his lips against my hairline in a soft kiss. "Goodnight Scarlett."

   "Night Harry."

   "I love you."

   "And I love you, always."

   "Always."

   "Attention everyone. Please make your way towards the front exit of the warehouse and get onto any one of the buses that are stood outside. This is not a drill. I repeat, this is not a drill," a robotic woman's voice blared out from the speakers above, repeating the same information over and over again as I stood by the side and directed people.

  The morning flew by quickly and so did the afternoon, where around 6 o'clock we began evacuating people. Since we had time until the bomb exploded, which was at midnight, we urged people to only take personal belongings and necessities, and to leave everything else behind. Everyone was quite confused, but obeyed our commands without much questioning as we moved them out. The buses were filling up quickly, eventually leaving out groups of people who all lingered around and began asking the seniors questions on why they were being forced to leave.

   "Unless you want to fucking die, get on the damn bus," Harry snapped at a young blonde girl who was asking him too many questions. She scowled at his response, listening to him nevertheless and walking away towards the closest bus.

  I stepped closer to him, slipping my fingers into his and squeezing his hand, hoping that would relax him. His gaze snapped towards my direction, his hard features softening immediately as he sighed lightly. I looked away when the buses began to leave again to drop the people occupying it, off. There were still a large amount of people left, and it was now 8 o'clock.

  After two more hours or so, everyone had left. The apartment building and warehouse was empty except for a few people who stayed back to help just in case we needed back up for when Omega was going to arrive. After this entire bombing scene occurs, we will then formulate a plan on attacking Omega's base and ending them for good. But for now, we had to get through this problem.

  Now we were on the way to the conference room where another meeting was going to be held with Valkyrie. Also, it was the place where Sami and I were going to stick together with a couple of other members of Valkyrie for protection. As Harry and I walked, I did a mental note on the things I picked up from the apartment and took to Liam's place, trying to think of anything I forgot to take. It suddenly occurred to me that I had left my custom-made bow and arrows in the secret compartment behind our bookshelf in the apartment.

   "What's wrong?" Harry asked in concern, frowning when he realized I had halted in my steps.

   "I forgot my bow and arrow in the apartment," I told him, biting my lip as he pondered for a second. "I have to get it."

   "Okay, let's go," he nodded in response, both of us turning around to head back before a voice called out from behind us.

   "Harry!" It was Seth, running towards us, slowing down before speaking again. "Vlad needs you, urgently."
