In the morning we sat quietly at breakfast. Suddenly, the sound of breaking glass was heard in the hallway.
– did you hear that? — Tom asked me in fear.
– yes...
I reached into my backpack and took out a folded bow and arrows.
– Have you… been carrying this with you all this time?
– hush ...
I straightened my bow and prepared it for a shot.
– who you are? What are you doing here?!
Shot. Lots of shots.
Tom and I went to the exit of the dining room and hid behind the door. Elizabeth rushes into the room with a gun in her hand. I shot her with a shocker arrow, from which I fell so unconscious.
– Damn... We need to get out of here urgently.
– Who is this, Maddie?
– old friends...
I abruptly ran out of the dining room, Chris and Robert were standing in front of me with weapons.
– I take it that fight in the park wasn’t the final one, Rob?
– you understand correctly.
I shot at two at the same time, but Chris also managed to shoot in the direction of Tom. I jerked Tom aside, but it hit his arm.
– Tom, how are you?.. Let me see.
– ouch!
– calmly.
– Maddy!
Robert would have shot at us, but the arrow went through him. He fell, and behind was Scarlet.
– Scarlet..?
I jumped up.
– I owe you, Maddie... Please forgive me. There are squirrels on the ground..?
She held out her hand.
– and arrows in the sky.
We completed our handshake. Suddenly, Scarlet fired sharply at Elizabeth, and then at Chris.
– We need to get out of here urgently.
I helped Tom up, shot. Scarlet fell. Marie was behind. Shot. I pushed Tom aside and moved away myself.
– YOU HAVE RUINED MY ALL LIFE! AND NOW I WILL CRASH YOURS.
Shot! I moved away. Shot! Moved back again. I kicked her sharply on the arms, the gun flew out. I got up and started to fight with Marie.
I threw her to the floor.
– who hired you! Who hired you all!
Marie started laughing.
– You will be very surprised, this is the person closest to you.
Shot. I swapped Marie and me, and the bullet hit her. I threw Marie away and saw in front of me ...
– Aunt Serena?!
Serena's pov.
– Hello, Maddie. Didn't you guess?
– Well, of course ... All for the sake of the inheritance.
– I deserve this more than all of you. This is my money!!
Tom wanted to stun me from behind, but I felt him and fired.
– nooo!
Maddie kicked me off with her feet and ran up to Tom.
– No, Tom... Tom, look at me... Please don't die. Tom...
– ...
– how sweet. Although no. Now sick!
– You are a monster!
– no, I just want to get what I deserve!!
Shot. Maddie fell.
– stupid girl. Thinks only of love.
Suddenly, Maddie's body dissolved, and sounds were heard from behind. I carefully turned back. Maddie was there. Her hands glowed.
– You will never know true love and friendship!
The sound wave knocked me back.
A week later in the hospital.
Pov Maddy.
Tom has been unconscious for a week now, he was seriously injured, but he will live.
The ambulance arrived on time, everyone in the house is alive, even the enemies. But they are all waiting for a prison under close supervision for life.
I slept next to Tom resting on the bunk. Suddenly they started stroking my head. I woke up. Tom looked at me with an exhausted smile.
– Tom...
I started kissing him.
– Thank God you're alive, I was so worried. Don't get up. You need to relax.
– how much time has passed? — Tom asked hoarsely.
– a week ... Tom ... I can't forgive myself for this and never will be able to.
– Maddie...
– don't... You got hurt because of me. I almost lost you. So... I'm leaving. Don't try to find me, forget me. I won't let you get hurt.
– Maddie... I can't live without you.
– I'm sorry...
I left a long kiss and ran away.
