John Wick Chapter 4 (John Wick x Female!Reader)

Chapter 7: Last Stand

The sun was just peaking over the horizon when John, Caine, Nobody and (y/n) walk along the court of the church to see the Marquis, Winston and the Harbinger standing by, waiting for them. John and Caine go to stand before the Harbinger while Nobody sits off to the side and (y/n) goes over to Winston as the sun starts rising.

"And so we begin." Harbinger said, raising his arms. Then John and Caine get closer as Winston and Marquis stand next to them. Two butlers pick up a tray, holding two glasses of drinks, and hands it to the men. They each take a glass as Harbinger takes a glass of his own. 

"We seek the truth and will endure the consequences." He said. "Consequences." All four men said before they drink their drink then set the glasses down. Caine hands his cane to one of the butlers and both he and John take off their jackets, John also takes off his vest.

They hand their clothing items to two butlers and they step aside. The Harbinger opens a gun case, revealing two pistols and Winston grabs one and hands it to John, who checks it over. "Positions, gentlemen." Harbinger said as Caine was handed his pistol by the Marquis.

John and Caine take a couple of steps then turn their back on each other. "See you in the next life, brother." Caine whispers to John. "Thirty paces." Harbinger ordered and the two men take the thirty paces.

Once they got to thirty paces, they turn around to face each other. The Marquis and Winston each take one bullet to the men, (y/n) walks over next to Winston. "What a beautiful sunrise." Winston said as he walks up to John then he nods towards the horizon. John and (y/n) looks out towards the sun before John takes the bullet and loads it into his gun.

"Last words, Winston?" John asked him. "Just have fun out there." Winston replied and John nods before he looks over at his beautiful wife, taking in every detail about her as this could be the last time he'd ever see her. "I love you." She tells him, softly. "I love you, too." He said then she leans up to him and gives him a kiss.

Once the kiss was broken, her and Winston step back and John gets into a stance as does Caine. The air was thick with tension as everyone looked around, nervously. "Are you ready, Mr Caine?" Harbinger asked and Caine gives him a slow nod. "Mr Wick?" Harbinger asked and John nods, everyone watching the duel with baited breath. (Y/n) started to hug herself as she starts to shake.

"I commend your souls to God. We begin as we end. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Fire!" Harbinger shouts and John and Caine both fired. (Y/n) jumps, let's out a small yelp at this, and Winston places a hand on her shoulder.

Both John and Caine were still standing, John was only grazed on his right arm and Caine got hit on his left arm but it wasn't too bad as he could still move his hand and arm. "Twenty paces." Harbinger said and the men move ten paces closer.

Marquis and Winston take the second bullet to John and Caine as they reload their gun. Marquis and Winston go to stand by the Harbinger as John and Caine get into a stance. "Fire!" Harbinger said and the two men fire, Caine getting shot in his right side and John just the top of his left shoulder.

"Nice." Caine groans as he goes to stand up. "Ten paces!" Harbinger said and Caine catches his breath then they move up ten more paces. Marquis and Winston then go take the last bullets to the men. "Just kill him." Winston tells John after he takes the bullet and looks at Winston. John and Caine load their guns again as Winston and Marquis steps aside.

(Y/n) places her right hand over her mouth, her whole body shaking, as Winston stands next to her then places an arm around her shoulder. Her eyes were filling with tears as she looks up at John and the two share a look, a silent conversation going on between them, before John looks over at Caine.
