I cursed under my breath, Cinno had been with me since I started. They're was no way he'd let me back down. If I did I would be called a traitor and burned at stake. I couldn't go soft. I had to kill Rose. If I didn't the one I didn't want killed would be gone. I had a tornado swirling inside of my head. I couldn't think straight.
"You've made this group to kill her, do it before I kill this one!" The dagger that he was holding just barely pierced her skin. She didn't scream. But I could have sworn I saw her eyes grow glassy.
"Cinno I've wanted to kill my sister over lies I believed. It isn't right to kill her. Not after she's told me the truth."
Cinno scoffed, "pathetic, your better than this Linkin." He took a deep pause, as if he was thinking what to say next. As he took this pause my hands became clammy and a cold sweat started to stream down my face.
"Your sister has already told you lies, so it's natural she'd want to apologize, she's seen how things are run here, but, she should still deserve punishment.
Watch her friend die, or you kill her. You choose Linkin." I couldn't choose. Neither was okay, neither were correct. "You decide Linkin!" Alyssa croaked, she had such a sound of hatred in her voice. She held her hands upon Cinno's he was much stronger.
"They've forgotten about people before! They can forget this!" Cinno smirked.
"What are you talking about?" Snarled Rose.
"Remember Linkin? We'd said we kill them off one by one. So we started with Justin. He was tripped by us during one of your mountain climbs and fell to his death. You seemed so determined yet so naive you forgot about a friend." Cinno's low booming voice sent shivers down my spine. Yet I had to confess to all these. I simply nodded my head. I couldn't take it anymore. "Just kill the girl, nobody will remember her. Like nobody remembered Justin." Cinno cackled.
"No." I said I lowered the gun.
Cinno growled, "that was a mistake Linkin, you sister will now watch as I slit her friends throat."
"You won't do that either." I said plainly, although my voice was a bit shaky.
Rose was crying. I knew why. As a leader she felt as if she had failed. She'd been so busy with thoughts and confusion she didn't have time to notice that one of her fellow members were gone, and now she couldn't sit and grieve for him. Now she had to protect someone from death again.
"Oh yes I will Linkin."
"THEN I SHALL HAVE YOU KILLED! YOU ARE UNDER MY ORDER CINNO! YOU WILL OBEY MY EVERY ORDER!" I was screaming. Cinno was taken a back.
"Hold the gun proudly to your head then," Cinno growled, "and then shoot yourself for the sin you just made." I started to laugh.
"As long as the gun is in my hand I'm pronounced deadly." I aimed the gun at Cinno.  His eyes showed shock but his body showed courage. "And as long as the gun is my hand, I will shoot someone here."
"So as long as you hold that gun you are still serving a great deal to us!" Cinno stated proudly. I smirked, "whoops." Was what I said before clink. Clink. Clink. The gun hit the floor. Rose dove for the gun and Alyssa screamed. I stood back. My deal was done. I walked away.
