Chloe

I wake up back in my cell. "Shit."

"You can put up quite a fight. It surprises me, no wonder they wanted you," a guy from behind me say.

"What do you want from me?" I could barely ask as my head is pounding.

"We are recruiting you but we can't have you meet the boss, until you calm down."

"Fuck you." I spit in his face. He hits me in the stomach.

"Stay here and calm down, I'll be back in 20 minutes." He leaves the room

I stand back up and lean against the wall, holding my stomach.

I start to sing I'll find you by Lecrae.

"Just fight a little longer my friend

It's all worth it in the end

But when you got nobody to turn to

Just hold on, and I'll find you

I'll find you

I'll find you

Just hold on, and I'll find you

I'm hanging on by a thread

And all I'm clinging to is prayers

And every breath is like a battle

I feel like I ain't come prepared

And death's knockin' on the front door

Pain's creepin' through the back

Fear's crawlin' through the windows

Waiting for em' to attack

They say "Don't get bitter, get better"

I'm working on switching them letters

But tell God I'mma need a whole lotta hope keeping it together

I'm smilin' in everyone's face

I'm cryin' whenever they leave the room

They don't know the battle I face

They don't understand what I'm going through

The world tryna play with my soul

I'm just tryna find where to go

I'm tryna remember the way

I'm tryna get back to my home

But, I can't do this on my own

That's why I'm just trusting in you

Cuz' I don't know where else to go

And, I don't know what else to do

Just fight a little longer my friend

It's all worth it in the end

But, when you've got nobody to turn to

Just hold on, and I'll find you

Just fight a little longer my friend

It's all worth it in the end

But, when you've got nobody to turn to

Just hold on, and I'll find you

I'll find you

I'll find you

Just hold on, and I'll find you

I'll find you

I'll find you

Just hold on, and I'll find you

They say fear haunts

And pain hates

I say pain strengthens

And fear drives faith

And I don't know all of the outcomes

Don't know what happens tomorrow

But when that ocean of doubt comes

Don't let me drown in my sorrow

And don't let me stay at the bottom

I feel like this hole is too deep to climb

I've been lookin' fo-"

I was cut off from singing as he walks in. "Come on, now."

I get up and go with him.

We make it to a door that is wooden and it looks old. He opens the door and let's me in.

I see a guy in a chair. He had a white suit on and a few gold chains.

"Hello." He has a scratchy voice.

I don't say anything but I gave him a death glare.

"Calm down there girly," he said as he waves everyone out.

"I want to go," I told him with anger on the edge of my voice.

"The only way out is if you die."

"Fine then kill me."

I saw him hesitate a little bit not expecting me to say that. I continued to stare at him.

"Your family and friends will also get killed."

I couldn't find my voice as I was shocked he told me that.

"So is that a yes or no."

"Fine, I'll stay." I put my head down.

"Good girl, now get out and get ready for your new home."

I turn around and walk out of the room.

"How was it in there?" He stands in my way.

I ignore as I push him out of the way.

"You are lucky because if you weren't a new recruit, I would kill you for being so damn rude."

"I am so fucking rude because I was threatened with my family and friends."

"I will go and kill them now, then. Unless you become my girlfriend."

I hit him in the stomach and chuck him through the wooden door. "Bitch, I won't become your girlfriend."

I see the boss just watch as he came flying through the door.

I stand above the guy that threatened my family just to be my boyfriend. I look at the boss and he nods his head.

I pick the guy by his collar. "Don't you ever threaten my family again," I whispered in his ear and I throw him on the ground. I walk out of the room.

A few hours later I am almost to my new home in Miami, Florida.

"How much longer do we have?" Hunter asked. Hunter is the one who wanted to be my boyfriend by threatening my family.

I wanted to rip his throat out but I ignored my instinct. "Shut up, please," I said in the sweetest voice I can.

"You are an assassin now and you think you are so bad ass."

I just stay silent.
