Amanda's POV:
It's been two weeks sense Ash showed up. There hiding something, I don't know what but they are hiding something from me. Zander hasn't been in my head sense a few days ago, and it's been bugging me, maybe I just imagined it all? All of the guys have been whispering behind my back. I wish I knew what they where talking about. I just hope we can find a way to escape soon because I don't know how much more I can take.
"Amanda, are you listing to us?"
I was broken out of thought when Erick called for me.
"Sorry I was thinking what did you say?"
"I asked if you where okay."
"Yeah I'm okay." I tried my best to lie through my smile, but the look on Erick's face told me he didn't believe me.
"Just checking." He said even though you could tell he was worried.
I didn't say anything after that. Then what seemed like forever, we heard footsteps coming down the hall. The sound of boots clicking the cement ground echoed all around us. We all looked at each other in fear.
Just as we thought Damien walked towards us and he did not look happy. Before any of us could say anything he had the cell unlocked and was pulling me to my feet.
"I'm giving you one last chance Death's Angel, give me the demon sword."
He was not happy and talking back wasn't going to solve anything either. I could feel the fear make it's way inside me.
"I told you Damien I don't know where it is."
"Your lying Amanda, your going to give me the sword now let's have fun."
What was he talking about I have no idea where it is, and even if I did I wouldn't tell him. I've heard rumors of what that sword does and the last place it needs to be is in his hands. Before I knew what was happening we were in the same cell as before. He took both of my hands and tied them up then placed them on a hook that was embedded in the wall. My feet were barley able to touch the ground. He walked around me scanning me over.
"Amanda you have tested my patience. I'm done playing games; you either tell me how you summoned the sword or else.
Summon the sword? What is he talking about? I'm not magic. Sure I have wings but I've had them since that day. I look over to my teammates and Ash, they look back in worry. Like they know something I don't. What is going on, I don't understand. My mind fills with hundreds of questions.
I tried moving around to brake the ropes but it wasn't working. What's going to happen to me? Is this the end? I looked to Erick to see worry and rage.
"What are you talking about?"
"You haven't told her?" Damien looked over towards my friends and the look they all gave back was one of pure anger.
He turned his attention back to me "You my child are have the demon sword inside you."
I have what? No that can't be how?
"T-T-That can't be true."
I had mixed feelings anger that my teammates didn't tell me, fear that now that he knows where the sword is what he is going to do to me.
"Now Amanda tell me how you made the sword appear."
"I'm telling you I don't know, and even if I did, I wouldn't tell you. Your the last person who needs to control the sword."
He was pissed. He pulled out a needle from a tray. Damien placed the needle in my neck and pushed the liquid into my system. My wings appeared, I tried to make them disappeared but it didn't work. I started to freak out every time I tried to hide them it wouldn't work.
"Make the sword appear, this is your last chance. GIVE ME THE SWORD!"
"For the millionth time, I have know idea how to make the sword appear."
I was screaming for Zeak in my mead but I got no response. How could this be happening, I don't understand.
"What would an angel be without her wings?"
My eyes went wide, he wouldn't would he? I looked him in the eyes and got my answer. I couldn't focus, my mind was going in a million different directions. My team was yelling something but I had no idea what was being said.
"Death Angel, final chance give me the sword."
I opened my mouth but no words would form. I focused all my energy into putting my wings away but it was no use.
"I will take that as a no. You leave me with no choice."
"NO! YOU CAN'T there my wings. You can't take them from me. Please don't."
You could hear the desperation in my voice. I haven't been this scared since Damien killed my parents. My wings are precious, there my life I can't lose them. I try to move around to free myself from this hell. 'breath, calm down you can't think of a way out like this.' A voice in my head was trying to say but I couldn't listen. Damien was laughing at my pathetic state.
"I think you need a new assassin name. Can't be Death's Angel without the wings."
"Amanda, calm down he's just trying to scare you, don't listen to him."
"Erick's right, he won't do anything, all he's trying to do is scare you into pulling the sword out."
My team was trying to calm me down. I was scared out of my mind. My whole body shaking. I have no idea on what to do. I started breathing faster.
"Amanda listen to me and only me, you will survive, he's only trying to scare you. Amanda your stronger than this. The first time I took you to the training room, you challenged Nick, John, and Kade. We thought you were insane, but when you challenged Kade's ego you pretty much lost your mind, he was pissed. You beat all three of them without breaking a sweat. That's the day you became team leader. " I looked Erick in the eyes.
"The day after we came back and you lost the bet with Kade, you took me to the roof. You asked me why I wouldn't leave the agency. I told you it was because someone was there that I needed to protect, you are that person Amanda."
I had tears in my eyes. I finally calmed down enough to where my breathing turned back to normal.
"All this sweetness is killing me. Oh and your team is wrong I'm completely serious."
My fear started to build again. I couldn't let it get to me. I had to hide my fear.
Between the time of me freaking out and having my conversation with Erick, Damien took out his phone and called his minions. After what seemed like hours a couple of people came down the steps and walked in front of Damien.
"You called?"
"Yeah, each one of you grab her by the arm and don't let go or else." Damien demanded.
They obeyed. my wrist chains were undone and I landed on my feet. Before I could run I was grabbed and pulled back. My arms where spread out and I as forced on my knees. I tried to fly but there grip was to strong.
"No more escaping Amanda, you refuse to give me what I want, so now I'm pissed. No more going easy on you, Say good bye to your wings."
My eyes where locked to the ground how could this be happening. tears clouded my vision.
"I think I like you in this position. Maybe in another life. You look so venerable, it's a shame I have to cut your wings. They are so beautiful."
My tears fell hitting the ground like rain. He had one of his minions who wasn't holding me go grab his weapons. The minion returned a few minutes later. It wasn't until he forced me to look at him that I realized his weapon was a katakana. He took the sword and slashed it down right in front of me.
"I love the weight of this sword, so powerful yet so light."
I was shaking by this time. Everything around me blurred. Tears came down like rain soaking the ground. My whole body became tense. . Their grip was like an iron grip that I couldn't escape. I braced for the impact of the sword . He was playing me, after a few minutes nothing happened. My teammates where right he was just trying to scare me, he wouldn't cut them off. He just wanted the sword. I let myself relax.
I started laughing "you won't do it, you just want the sword."
"That's where your wrong Amanda, he walked behind me."
