Everything erupts into chaos as I rush towards protection. Don't be fucking silly, I'm a strong, independent woman, but I know that I'm fucking unarmed. Blake and Anna immediately stand in front of me with their guns ready as nearly everyone rushes out of the ballroom to get their weapons.

Slight panic begins to rush through me after I hear the gunshot. Good thing I took my pills or I'd probably be having a panic attack and that would give everyone more stress.

Adrian and Kaden's eyes scan the room as Richard Arrow also holds a gun. Another gunshot rings through the room and I hear a couple women scream. Someone was just shot dead.

"Everybody leave the ballroom!" Kaden shouts. "If I see anyone here that's not Bailey, Adrian, Anna, Blake, Luna, Dylan, I'm shooting you dead." Everyone begins to shuffle out the ballroom and out of the mansion.

Once the room is empty, apart from us and the dead body, Adrian sprints down the stairs and towards me. "Bailey, get out of here with Dylan," He tells me in a rush. "Get the fuc-" Another gunshot sounds and I lift my head up to see Richard Arrow crouching on the ground.

"Bailey, get out. Get out with Dylan!" Kaden shouts from above. Kaden expertly swerves to the side as another gunshot reverberates through the room. "Dylan, take Bailey with you."

"Adrian..." I begin.

"I'll be fine. You better get the fuck out," He tells me. He presses his forehead against mine, and looks straight into my eyes. "I love you."

"I love you too," I whisper as Dylan's hands wrap around my wrist. He pulls me away and I watch my friends and boyfriend get further away from me. I hear another gunshot but I don't turn around. I keep running with Dylan.

He brings out the track star in him as he sprints down the hallways towards the room Luna and Teddy were in. He thrusts the door open and breathes a sigh of a relief when he sees Teddy doing fine.

"Dylan!" Luna cries and we both turn around to see a gun held against her head. "Dylan!"

"Luna!" He shouts, his eyes widening in terror. "Let her the fuck go!"

"Then give us what we want," The red haired man, who was holding the gun against Luna says. I scan the room, and notice Teddy begins to cry. That causes him to have trouble breathing. Luckily, he had the nebulizer. There was a darker man standing next to Teddy.

"What do you want?" Dylan breathes out.

"You're Kaden Arrow's brother. You must know where he keeps all the paper that give him access to those docks and deliveries. We want those."

Dylan glances at me, giving me a helpless look. Fuck. If they get those papers, then it's game over for Kaden but if they don't get those papers, then it's game over for Luna, Dylan and Teddy.

My question is: How did they get in here in the first place?

HOLY FUCKBALLS! It was the men with phones. They led them in here. They... AND THEY'RE NO LONGER IN THIS MANSION! Oh my God! I find myself clearing my throat. Everyone looks at me as if I've lost it.

"I need to go to the bathroom."

"Too bad."

"I have explosive diarrhea," I tell them, cringing at my excuse. It's okay, they won't live to remember anyway.

"Fine, make it quick." Slowly, I walk past Dylan, subtly swiping his phone from his pocket before heading into the bathroom. Let's see... Do I have any more mafia links? No, I don't.

But what I do have is YouTube ready to play an hour long of diarrhea noises and I window to escape through. Voila. I play the noises because casually opening the window and slipping through it. It's easy with my flat figure.

Now, let's just hope my non-existent plan works.

Do I remember what the man with the phone looked like? Maybe? Once I land on the ground, luckily still intact, I scan the crowd outside. Ah, I'm pretty sure that was the man with the phone.

I'm being completely impulsive here, this is NOT a well thought out plan. I walk over to the man with a big grin on my face. He scowls at me while typing something in his phone. "Excuse me?"

He looks up at me, but then looks back at his phone. "Excuse me, sir!" I shout this time. "I'm trying to be a damsel in distress, and you're making it very hard for me!"

"What. Do. You. Want?"

"Don't give me that attitude!" I snap. "I want to call my mother to pick me up."

"Call her with your own phone!"

"I was just in a ballroom full of criminals! My phone did not make it."

"Go ask someone else."

"Fine!" I huff, before I walk over to a girl in a green dress and box braids. I'm quite sure she has some mafia links. She glares at me, but it's nothing compared to Anna's stare. "Yo, gimme your phone, I need to call someone."

She looks at me incredulously before shaking her head. "I'll tell Kaden Arrow and Adrian Black," I threaten.

"Who are you to them?"

"I'm Adrian's girlfriend," I smile. "And like a sister to Kaden."

She raises her eyebrows before slowly handing me her phone after unlocking it. I begin to scroll through her contacts before clicking on a random one.

"I told you! I'm not going to get back together with you," A girl hisses through the phone.

"Um... I'm not..."

"Oh, I'm guessing you're not Tara?"

"No. I'm Bailey... Anyway, I need help."

"I'm not helping anyone. I'm busy trying to reach Adrian Black. I'm in dire need of more weapons."

I find myself smirking. "I can help you with that."

"How? That fucker is unreachable!"

"That fucker is my boyfriend. I just need you to come over to Kaden Arrow's mansion named Cupid. Also, if you can bring any trustworthy people to help out, that'd be awesome."

"Can you ask him to give me those weapons for a discount?"

"Oh, of course. Just get yo ass over here."

"I'll be right there!" She states before hanging up on me.

Ten minutes later, almost everyone of the guests had left. There were only Kaden's men and the girl who I know as Tara left. "So, Dahlia is coming?" She asks me once more.

"Yeah."

"What exactly is going on inside?"

"People are shooting at my boyfriend and friends," I say flatly.

"Ah."

"Mhm."

"Bailey girl!" Someone shouts from inside a car. About ten other cars pull into the mansion's driveway. "Please tell me Adrian Black is alive." She tosses me a gun, and her eyes linger on Tara for a while before she awkwardly hands her a gun as well.

"Dahlia, right?" I ask. She nods as people from the other cars get out.

"Why are we here again?" One man groans. I glare at him along with Dahlia and Tara.

"Shoot anyone who tries to block you. I'll tell you what to do when we get inside," I order them. "Make it rain," I wink only to internally cringe. "And if someone could teach me how to shoot, that'd be great."

"Oh, yeah. Sure," Dahlia walks over to me. "You pull this thing, and then you point and then pull the trigger."

"Lovely," I nod. "I'm actually supposed to have explosive diarrhea right now." They all look at me like I've gone crazy again. "Forget I said that. Whatever we do, we don't shoot Adrian Black, Kaden Arrow, Anna Rodriguez, or Black Pierce. Okay?"

They all nod. "I can't believe I'm doing this," Dahlia squeals, her red hair tied into a ponytail. "Let's go!"

"This was the most random thing I've encountered," Another woman sighs. "But exciting."

"I actually had no plan, I'm just going with the flow," I confess.

"Sometimes that works the best," She says. "Life is so unexpected, you can't really make a plan."

True that. Dahlia shoots the two guards at the entrance before barging into the mansion with my randomly made army of heaven knows how many people. "Yoohoo!" I sing as I walk into a ballroom filled with several men and a few women attacking my friends.

My newly made group starts shooting them down, Dahlia looking completely ecstatic. In a matter of minutes, almost everyone is down. "Bailey, what the hell is this?!" Adrian breathes, wiping blood off his nose.

"Just my way of helping," I wink. "And we have to hurry because Dylan is stuck in a dilemma and he might sell Kaden out for Luna and Teddy," I explain in a rush. "Oh, and I learned how to shoot." I twirl my gun around my fingers before firing at someone that was already dead.

Motherfu- That hurt my shoulder!

"Shooting isn't for you, babe," Adrian chuckles as he shoots another person. I notice blood seeping down the side of his arm. "Oh... I got it. It's fine, it didn't pierce through me or anything. You should see what happened to Anna."

I turn around to see Anna clutching her thigh with one arm and with the other, firing bullets like a madwoman.

"Who are these people?"

"I don't know but it's normal for people to want to infiltrate our gangs. No one's actually done it though."

"Bailey!" Kaden shouts. "I thought I told you to leave?" He grunts as someone tries to push him off the balcony. He pushes them back.

"Fucking hell it's like they don't want anything from us. They just want to kill us," Blake points out frustratedly.

"That's because they do want to just kill you!" I explain. "They have Dylan upstairs. They'll get what they want from him!"

"Well, that's not very smart," Anna mumbles as another bullet is fired at her. Only, Blake pushes them just in time so they miss her completely. He winks at her and she winks back.

Damn.

————

I actually ended up shooting no one, but in the end everyone died except the people that I didn't want to die.

We quickly begin to make our way upstairs with Blake carrying Anna. They're so cute sometimes. Of course, there's nothing cute about being shot in the leg, but... yeah. I'm actually quite surprised that none of us are panicking or crying.

Of course, the people who are in the mafia are calm, but me? Yeah, no.

When we reach Dylan's room upstairs, I expect a lot of things, but not Dylan handing the men Kaden's papers. He looks completely torn, as he looks at Luna with a gun against her head.

Now is when I begin to panic.
