I walk out of my room and through the house to the living room. Tired and in pain from my little "trip", i sit down on the couch a crossed from my mom. She is reading her eBook as usual.
Mom: "How was it?"
Levi: "Mission acomplished. As usual, i didnt walk away untouched."
She sighs and looks up.
Mom: "Come here and let me see how bad it is."
I got up and walked acrossed the room to her. I pulled off my sweat shirt and tee shirt reviling my black tank top and the wound. She powers off her device and puts her cold hands on my shoulder to make me hold still. She then sticks a cold finger in the hole and moves it around. I hiss in pain clenching my jaw to hide it.
Mom: "Oh ya. Its in there pretty deep. Go grab your keys and drive to the MSS hospital."
Levi: "Wait. What will they do? How much pain will I be in? Not that it will bother me."
Mom: "Well they will take out the bullet and any fragments, clean the area, and then stich and bandage it up."
I groan. Yes i know what you are thinking. 'What the hell was this girl doing that put her in the situation to potentially get shot in the first place?!' Well for you to understand we will have to back track.
Four years ago
I was sitting in my pink room on my pink camo bed sheets watching Disney Channel. I heard a loud knock at the door. My window faces out to the driveway and from there I can slightly see the door. I look out and see 4-5 black cars parked in my yard. Men with black suits around the house. They were all holding guns.
13 year old Levi: "What. Is. Happening."
I run out to the kitchen and hide in the pantry listening to the conversation of the people at the front door and my parents I hear lady, that is not my mom,talk first.
???: "It's time Rockel. We have to take her. She is now 13. That was the deal."
Mom: "Please don't take her she's so innocent."
???: "I'm sorry but we cannot pass up a kid like her. She is smarter than most of the adult agents in our organization."
Dad: "Are you sure there's nothing we can do or you sure neither of us can take her place?"
???: "I'm sorry but no. Rockel is going to be trained in medical to care for the Levi when she is home so she can treat minor wounds as she will have some after missions and training camp. And Bret in your condition you are kind of useless to us. I'm sorry Mr. and Mrs. Yanz but I have to take her today."
I couldn't see my parents but something told me that they looked at each other and agreed.
Mom: "Go in the kitchen. Walk straight turn left then right right away and walk through the dining room. Her room is at the end of the hall."
???: "Thank you for your cooperation."
I heard footsteps walk past the pantry so I slowly opened the door and came out.
Levi: "You're not gonna find her in there."
The lady turned as did the two men with her. She looked at my parents. Furious.
