Chapter 13: discovered
JACOB
"Look what you bitches did! You made Rachel now leave!" Preston decided to put the blame on them.
That's something I've always hated about Preston.
"Preston, that's not our fault. She just felt guilty and couldn't handle the pain anymore. You guys were stressing her out with Holly leaving and the two arguing. You guys were assholes and decided to be smartasses. Now look at what you've done." Kat sighs.
Kat was right.
So far, she's been the only logical one here.
We finally decide to keep going and ran into someone.
I swear to God, if it's another guard, I'm gonna-
"Get the sword, Preston." I said.
Preston pulls the sword out of it's case. "Ready." He says in a steady voice.
"Jesus, you guys think I'm sort of fucking criminal now? All I ever did was just blame myself for everything."
Holly?
"Holly! Thank God we found you!" Kat says and runs in to her for a hug.
"I wish you didn't." Holly whispers.
"Get the hell up Holly, and let's get out of this goddamn place!" I say, trying to rush Holly. I mean yeah, I get it. We just found her, we've all been through a lot, I know she's probably having some major trust issues right now.
"I don't even think I should. I don't deserve to leave, not especially now that the secret's out." Holly said in a low voice, moving her hair out of her face, revealing scars, red eyes, and a bruise that took up the space of her left cheek.
Damn.
"Holly, stop doubting yourself. You can't blame yourself for everything, now let's go." Kat tries to reassure her.
Note, I said tries.
Holly sighs and uncurls herself out of the somewhat fetal position she was in. "Fine. Let's go."
We walked and we found the exit.
Wait, seriously!
This is it! This is the end!
We're finally out of this living hell!
"Guys! We finally get to get out of here!" Preston says, his voice rasped but still full of the elation of leaving.
I was about to say something in agreement, then I remembered something.
Rachel.
So I finally spoke up.
"But what about Rachel?"
Expecting someone to say something, like about us going back, I hear the complete opposite, coming from somebody I should've seen coming, but I didn't.
"Fuck her." The words came out of Holly's mouth.
"Jesus Holly! What happened to you while you were alone?" I say. "That's none of your fucking business." Holly snaps back.
I furrow my eyebrows in anger.
"Alright, let's get outta here now!" Preston yells. Finally, something encouraging!
"Yeah!" We all scream in agreement.
Preston opens the door and now...
Back to hell.
"Surprise motherfuckers!"
