Ice blue (On hold)

Chapter 39

Meanwhile in Germany 🇩🇪

Rachael's PoV

Today is seriously not my day.

I should've known that nothing good would come if I run away from my problems.

Now I've got my parents, Charles, Justin, Sam and Connor in danger.

I've even got Ethan in danger and even though I'm upset and angry at him, I still care.

Most if not all of the people I care about are here trying to save me and now they also need saving.

Everyone was frozen in place. What else can you do when someone has a gun pointing towards you? The next thing any of us do will have terrible consequences.

I looked at Violet and saw the determination in her eyes. Well what was left of her eyes. The beautiful light grey eyes she used to have were now darker making her eyes look more soulless. That obviously isn't a good sign.

I turned away from Violet as I felt something irritate me.

It was something which was taking place on the inside of my body not around me.

Then I remembered the mind block I had put up through the temporary mind connection I had with Ethan.

The irritation in my mind must be him attempting to get past the mind block.

I looked towards him and glared at him but he obviously ignored it.

Well that's rude. I rolled my eyes and thought about the mind block being stronger and blocking, whatever access Ethan is attempting to gain, before feeling it strengthen within my mind.

I looked towards Ethan again and saw his angered face before hearing him mutter a number of swear words under his breath.

I was doing a small dance in my mind due to my accomplishment. That'll show him.

My ears perked up from the voice of my mum. I couldn't really turn around to face here since there was a gun pointing directly at me but she was talking clearly enough for anyone less than a mile away to hear.

"Violet she's your sister. Why would you do this? You wouldn't like it if she was to do it to you or if someone else was to do it to you. It's an inhuman way to act" She said.

I saw Violet lower the gun a little bit. Nows my chance.

I tried to move closer to my protectors and Ethan, who were on my right, but as soon as I took a few steps, Violet noticed and pointed the gun back at me again.

At least she's pointing it at me and not at either of my parents or the other important people present.

Where were the ambulance and police?

Someone needs to have a word with them.

You're not supposed to act like you have all the time in the world when someone's just had a car accident and is most likely in more danger.

It could be life or death. Well it is but still. They shouldn't be taking so long.

I was brought out of thought from the sound of my name being mentioned. I turned my head slightly towards the source and noticed that my mum was still reasoning with Violet.

"She's your sister Violet. You have the willpower to fight whatever's consuming you.
You and Rachael are blood related. You are sisters by blood. That should overpower the darkness inside of you." Said my mum who sounded like she was close to tears.

She probably was since I saw my dad rubbing her back in order to comfort her.

My mum however did not let her emotions stop her so she continued.

"You're our daughter Violet. This is not the way we raised you. We helped you the lot we could when trying to fight this darkness but it wasn't up to us. It's up to you. It's you're fate based on the choices you make. You're Violet Katherine Jones not someone consumed by darkness."

At the mention of her full name, Violet lowered the gun to her side.

My mum continued to talk but I tuned her out.

What were we going to do?

None of us know what she's up to.

We don't know what her next move is or who she has with her.

I've walked into my own trap and brought the people that have made an impact on my life into it as well.

The police and ambulance still haven't arrived. At this rate, someone's going to get hurt and Violet will escape.

My mum is doing a good job at attempting to change Violet's mind but the banshee inside of her has consumed more of her soul.

I don't know how much longer she will be distracted before she strikes.

"Let's hope she's distracted enough." I murmured under my breath before using my natural speed to run towards Sam, Connor and Ethan.

I heard a click and looked to my left to see Violet pointing the gun at me following my every move.

This may as well be the end but I didn't stop running. I was so close to my protectors and Ethan.

From the corner of my eye I saw them coming closer to me as well.

But as soon as I heard the gunshot, I froze in place.

The bullet was moving through the air speedily but my screaming mind was no longer in control of my body.

I could hear my name being called my so many times but I wasn't listening to the sounds.

I was numb all over.

Before I knew it, my body was lying on the floor and my eyes were slowly closing.

I could hear the sirens in the distance.

The last thing I saw before my eyes welcomed the darkness was another body lying on the floor and Violet escaping.
