.Ashley's blood spatter sprayed across her twin's face, adding a wetter looking crimson than was on Ariel's dress.Linda Mackenzie's scream was the heart wrenching, breath stealing wail of a mother's loss! Everyone in the room seemed to become as still as Ariel.And then Linda's scream was cut short with a bullet to her head.The report of the gun was loud and short.She dropped to the floor her body lifeless and only partially in the video frame.David howled like a man possessed, "Noooooo!"His pain and loss were short lived as a large knife was shoved deeply into his chest.David's body did a half turn as he sank to his knees.He raised an unsteady hand towards his daughter and whispered what sounded like "Ariel, run," and continued to the floor.The man who had shot Linda suddenly kicked her in what was left of her head."Black bitch almost shot me! Got a Goddamn gun out of that wall safe over there.""You all were careless.Just be glad you're not dead like those two." The man who had stabbed David Mackenzie and seem to be in charge warned.The one who had killed Ashley grunted, "Little cunt was trained almost as well as we train our kids."The leader spoke again, "Obviously not as she's dead.Our kids would have won."The other home invader had moved away from Linda's body and was waving his hands and snapping his fingers in Ariel's face who didn't so much as blink."Hey, boss, I think this one is broken or something, want me to gut her?"The leader walked over to Ariel.He bent until they were eye to eye and then slowly ran his hands down her chest squeezing the slight bumps of her budding breasts and then cruelly shoved a hand between her legs.Ariel didn't move."Let’s go.She's a waste of space now." The leader spoke and the others moved.In seconds they were gone.The video was eerily silent as it recorded a full 2 minutes of Ariel staring at nothing.Abruptly her tiny frame shuddered and she blinked.In slow motion she went to a phone on an end table.She picked it up dialed a number, said 2 words "Activate guardian." Her voice was small, sounding even younger than her 11 years.She hung up then dialed 3 digits and placed the receiver on the end table with the line still open.Ariel slowly walked towards her mother.She laid down, curling her body around her mother's pregnant mound.In a broken hitch she began to sing to her unborn brother.For several long minutes the only sound that could be heard was the broken lyrics in Ariel's tiny child's voice.Kyle recognized the military style of the 6 man team that stealthily descended upon the room.In two-by-two and flanking formation the 6 men filled the room, fully outfitted in tactical gear and weapons."These two are dead, Sarg." One of the men said after quickly checking for signs of life on the two intruders.The man who was addressed as Sarg growled, "Good, saves me the trouble of hunting the pieces of shit down." He stood over Ashley's body.He kneeled and gently closed her lids."Sarg, White King is dead." Another team member informed the stoic Sarg."Damn!""Sarg! It's Princess 2! She's alive!" One of the men off camera shouted.The Sarg turned as the man came into view carrying Ariel in his arms.Her lips moved but sound no longer could be heard."Ok, I want a clean sweep now!" The man known as Sarg started to speak into his headset while two other members of the team checked Ariel."Guardian 1 to base." He gave a short pause then continued, "White King, Black Queen and Princess 1 are down, repeat, White King, Black Queen and Princess 1 are down! I need immediate evac for Princess 2.Rendezvous with Helio-5 at location Alpha-1.""Sarg, she's covered in blood but none of it is hers, vitals are normal and her pupils are even and responsive to light.It appears as though she is in some kind of catatonic state."Sarg reached for Ariel as the camera screen filled with the black of one of the men's chest as they neared where the camera was hidden.The camera tilted and whirled as it was moved."Sarg, got a video here.It looks active."An inverted image of the Sarg cradling Ariel appeared."Grab it and anything else you found and let's move out double time.The local LEOs will be here any minute.Barrel, you take point.""Yes s--" the video abruptly ended.Chapter 14The media room was completely silent.Kyle looked over at Catlyn whose face was wet from all her tears.Jack held her hand, giving it a squeeze before going to turn the lights on.The other 3 looked at Jared.Unashamedly, tears streamed down his face and his hands had a death grip on the arm rests [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
