9. Everyone is alive but...

This Chapter contains violence read at your own risk .

have you ever died more than once? I know it's impossible for you but not for me because I died three times, the first time I died was when they took my brother away from me, the second time I died was when I left my loved ones, and now I died the third time, it feels like your soul is being pulled out of your body, or maybe it feels as if someone is holding your heart in his hands and in one move they ripped it out of your chest, I watched my loved ones being exploded in front of my eyes and I couldn't do anything, I guess this is the benefit of living in a world like mine because this is what always happens, I watch my loved ones die.

I cut my ropes and got up and sent my punch straight to his jaw, he fell to the ground, and I suppose we were alone here because no guards showed up.

he got up and I stepped back, balancing my weight on my left foot, and threw my right fist out in a curved punch at his temple. Turning ninety degrees to the side, he brought his right forearm up to counter the blow, formed a fist with his left, and threw it at my outstretched jaw, and I stumbled back a little.

I hit Jake under the jaw, and he stepped back and swung at me. I shrugged my shoulder up and took the punch on it. I hit him four times, three lefts, and a right in the face. He stumbled back.

I curled my hand into a fist and aimed for the front of his nose. My fist hit the bridge of his nose. His blood splattered all over the ground of the warehouse.

then I grabbed my butterfly knife and stabbed Jake in the shoulder but before I could stab him again he got his gun out and shot me in the shoulder but that didn't stop me and I stabbed him again then took my knife, searched for my phone and ran out of the warehouse, I called my Father and he sent someone to get me.

My father's man took me to our private hospital and helped me get to the 6th floor, Where everyone from the explosion is having medical attention.

"How are they?" I asked my parents but my mother was still in shock so my dad answered: " some of them are still in surgery and the others are out but are not awake yet."

"who's out?" 

"Ella, Roman, and Alexander, "

my father looked at my shoulder and said, "you should have medical attention"

"I'm fine, " I said.

"How did you know?" my mom asked and continued, " I asked them not to tell you, "

"ublyudok (the bastard) showed me the explosion in a projector, " I said and then went to remove the bullet from my shoulder.

after removing the bullet I went to Ella's and Roman's Rooms and then went to Alexander's, I took a chair and sat on it.

I took Alexander's hand in mine and said "Before you, I felt like I was dying. The panic consumed me and squeezed the life from my heart. But I didn't care. When we are weighed down by the torture of hate, we don't fear death. There was nothing to live for… until you found me again."

I continued "You rebuilt me and fixed what was broken. You made me better and pieced me back together in new ways that improved me. With the right parts, I was reborn… and life felt real… and right for the first time,"

"Natalie, the doctor from Danielle's surgery is out, he want to talk to us." Mom said and I took one last glance at Alexander and went with her to the doctor's room.

The doctor said "Mr. Salvator, I have some bad news and some good news, " he paused for a minute and continued " Danielle has been too close to the walls during the explosion so a piece of metal from the wall, went directly to her spine, which will lead to paralyzing her, "

my mom gasped and started to cry and I just sat on the chair and started to cry as well and my dad just looked on the ground and asked "and the good news, "

"The good news is that the piece of metal came between the seventh and eighth cartilaginous vertebrae, which gives the possibility of healing from paralysis, but this can happen in two ways, the first method: a very dangerous operation to remove it, or the second method, which is treatment sessions that help her to walk again, but it will take about 9 months to walk again '' the doctor explained.

"and how dangerous this operation is?" I asked and my voice was barely a whisper.

"I'm afraid it's too dangerous miss Salvator, I mean one mistake might paralyze your sister forever, so I recommend the second way, " The doctor said and I nodded then helped my mother to get out of the room and helped her sit on one of the beds.

when I got out I saw Alexander's Family in the hallway, Emily came in my direction and asked "where is he?" I pointed to his room and they went there.

I sat on the chair beside my father and asked "what are we gonna do?"

"The Andrews have passed their line, it's time to get the council in the game, " my father answered.

"speaking of the council do they know that you killed Jake's uncle and his family?" I asked.

"they gave me the orders, " My dad answered.

and now I couldn't hold it back anymore, I started crying, and my father took me in his embrace and I started sobbing in his chest and I said "this too much, this more than my power, I can't take it anymore, please make it stop, it hurts,"

"my child, we can't stop now, we have to keep going for the sake of Danielle, Dominic, Alexander, for the sake of everyone we have to keep going, " my father said.
