Chapter 305 - End of arc-5 (2/2)
Flames racing towards them like a tsunami, turning everything to ash with it.
They could feel the heat on their back.
They ran for their life. They ran for their son, desperately waiting for them.
They ran.
They ran.
Unstoppable.
The exit came into line of sight.
He wrapped his hand around her waist and took a leap, screaming lungs out.
They crashed to the ground. Building collapsing over them.
....
Evan ran to lift the debris off of them. James and Zeng used last of their strength to get the two out. Luo joined, fighting against the bleeding chest.
Suyin pushed her palm out through the small opening when a stone was lifted. She was crushed. Not only under the debris, but under Wang Shi's weight. He had used his body to protect her. ”Shishi,”
”I'm fine,” he groaned.
They crawled out of debris and dropped on the floor. Panting, greedily taking air. Wang Shi sat with her, patting her back. She wiped her dirty hands on her clothes, and first takes off her contacts. Her eyes were literally on fire.
”H-Honey,”
”We will. But first let me take this out--” he crouched down and lifted her leg. The cut had grown wider as the metal piece went further in.
She shook her head, ”I tried. It--AHHHH--” He threw the piece away. ”You should have warned me.”
”Nope. It was better this way.” He undid the belt and made a tourniquet with it.
She looked up at the four men, looking at them. Especially the two. Jamie and Zeng. ”Are you two okay?” They lunged to hug her.
”Stupid, you shouldn't have risked your life.”
”Zeng is right. It was unnecessary.”
Suyin looked at Evan, ”It was him.” Her gaze snags at a distance. It was Alpha's militants standing with their weapons, their gaze set on the collapsed building. On further notice, she saw Revon standing facing them over debris, making it his dais. Like a leader. He was saying something, don't know what. But since they were not fighting, it's good.
She stiffens, retrieving her gaze, ”Honey!”
”Let's go.” Wang Shi extended his hand. Her wide spectacles on his palm. Glass over the right eye was cracked, spider web like lines taking over.
”How did you?”
”Evan was holding it for me. Though he failed to keep it safe.” He set it on her nose, and extended his hand again, ”For our son,”
She took his hand, ”For our son.”
”Brother Shishi,” A man dressed in military uniform called from a military vehicle. They hoped on it.
.....
.....
.....
”Mei, are guys okay?” Wang Shi asked. Everything happened so quickly, he didn't paid any attention to messages from Xiu Mei. He could faintly recall some sounds when he was buried under the debris.
”Shishi,” Jianyu answered, panting. ”We are ambushed. Ambushed by freaking animals who had IEDs tied around their back. F*ck. How are you people?” Wang Shi heard screeching of tires, sounds of explosion.
”Fine. Where is Mei?”
”Just now a bull collided with our car and exploded. She's lying unconscious on the back seat. Honey is with Mei, trying to wake her up. Dammit, how to stop them? Entire wildlife of El Sandrios is after us.”
”They are controlled by collar. He wants to kill Honey and won't stop until it's achieved. We need Mei to disable the collar.”
”But Mei— ARGH,” Tires screeched. Followed by a sound of collision against the metal. Suyin felt a pang in heart when she heard Honey's tiny voice from behind. ”Xion, I need help,” they heard Jianyu say. A second later sound of gunfire rent the air.
