Video: Lullaby - Professor Green ft Tori Kelly. I thought that this song sort of relates to this chapter! Enjoy! ^-^

Normal POV

The Bandits and Kalel were patiently waiting for the group to enter the house, they had many plans that awaited them and some of the group members weren't doing too well. Arixa's head was starting to hurt, badly, she clutched her head as it began to throb.

"Are you okay?" Anthony asked her, he was slightly worried.

"Y-Yeah.. I'm fine.. Don't worry about me.." Arixa lied, trying desperately to hold in the pain and agony she was experiencing, she managed to keep her mouth shut as the pain got worse.

"Should we split up?" Paige inquired, running her hand through her hair.

"No.. We should all go together.. Just have weapons at the ready guys.." Felix remained calm and tried to stay strong, he was sort of the leader of this group.

"Alright." Arixa mumbled, limping towards the front door.

Kalel giggled quietly, "Hehe! Let the plan begin!" She whispered, the other Bandits seemed a little shocked when Kalel pulled out matches and a knife. Unknowingly, they were scared of her.

The group slowly opened the door, letting the ear-piercing sound of creaks fill the hollow, wispy house, The Bandits and Kalel were ready to make their move as the group reluctantly entered the terrifying environment. One of the few Bandits used the darkness as a cover, not making a single distinctive sound, he grabbed Alice slowly and sneakily, dodging the creaky floorboards that were ready to ruin this fatal plan. He covered her mouth with a cloth that had some sort of sleeping subtance, that made her pass out instantly, he then went for the next victim, passing Alice to another guy. Slowly stepping down the stairs, he accidently hit one of the floorboards, a loud screech filled the room, he remained quiet. The group looked around and didn't spot the cunning Bandit behind them, because he was wearing all black. The Bandit then moved on to his next victim, Mark, He put the cloth over his mouth and then carried him up, no one noticing that they had missing group members.

"Surprise!" Kalel whispered, slamming the front door behind them, she then lit a match a fiddled with it. "Should I drop it? Should I not?" She smirked, about to let go of the match.

"Kalel?! Stop!" Anthony shouted, anger fulfilling his dark brown eyes.

"Or what?!" Kalel muttered, her eyes daggering Arixa angrily, "How's your head sweetheart?" She grinned, turning back to look at Anthony's furious glare.

"Screw....you...Kalel!" Arixa stuttered, holding her head again.

"Ever wondered where on earth two of your group members are?" Kalel grinned deviously, looking straight into Anthony's eyes. "You're not gonna get away with this Anthony!" She stepped aside and dropped the match, the flames instantly engulfing the corroded, damp wood, she walked away swiftly.

*******************************

Mark's POV

I started to really care about Alice, but she was getting beat up right in front of me, I couldn't do anything with a shotgun pointed to my face, even the slightest sound and my head would have been blown to pieces.. I was pushed to the floor and held down by a foot on my back, my face engraving into the wet wood.

"You betta' watch 'urself lad!" The guy spoke threateningly, his foot digging into my back. His thick Brummie accent was very annoying to say the least. I didn't say anything, but I looked over at Alice's still conscious body, I won't let her die; I would risk my own life for her. After an awkward silence, I spoke up strongly.

"Just let her go! Take me, but not her!" I muttered as pain emerged from my back, his big combat boots, almost crushing my rib cage.

"Not a chance mate!" The guy chuckled obnoxiously, "You and her will be juuust fine! Not forgetting two others!" I so badly wanted to punch his face.... That was not really an option at that point...

I looked up to see Paige's unconscious body being dragged next to Alice, she was thrown and stripped of visible weapons.

"Hah! Arixa won't need to be dragged up here! Anthony will be too busy saving his precious little Angel!" Kalel glanced at Alice and then at the other Bandits, "She's gonna get trapped and pass out instantly! This will all work out just fine!" She began to cackle evilly, why as she so pissed off with Anthony?

Arixa's POV

The pain was just way too much for me, if I closed my eyes for one second, the fire would have spread further than I would have anticipated, my legs started to feel numb, I tried to walk upstairs where I heard Kalel laughing annoyingly and loudly. Alice and Mark were up there, maybe even Paige, she disappeared a while ago.. By the time I got to the top, smoke surrounded my body, making me feel no part of my body whatsoever, my eyelids began to feel heavy, I fought back the persuasion to welcome unconsciousness with open arms; I ran to the window and looked down, everyone else had escaped...

"ANTH- ANTHONY!" I yelled, a felt a presence behind me, but I didn't care.

"ARIXA?!" Anthony shouted, his eyes filled with worry, he went wide-eyed. "BEHIND YOU!!"

Before I could do anything, I felt someone grab me by my neck and pull me away from the window, the fresh air escaping my already damaged lungs and entoxicated air refilling them. It was Kalel...

"Hey Ian! If you're wondering where your 'girlfriend' is, she in here gasping for air! Come and get her if you have the balls!!" Kalel grinned, dragging me further away.

I heard fast footsteps from outside, they got fainter as my eyesight went dim, as soon as my eyelids shut, they were glued; death was slowly beginning to arrive...

Anthony's POV

Me and Ian were running into the burning building once again, Ryan ran alongside us.

"I got your back if anything happens!" Ryan shouted as we continued running, we nodded and ran inside, the over-powering heat, smacking our faces.

Coughing uncontrollably, all three of us ran upstairs, we were already feeling light-headed once we arrived at the smoke infested room.

"I've been waiting for you!" Kalel giggled, "Had the guts to show huh?" She crossed her arms, looking across at Arixa and Paige's unconscious bodies. How the hell was she not coughing in this foggy room?!

"You better not have hurt her!" I snarled, looking her dead in her cold blue eyes. Kalel rolled her eyes and backed up.

"Good luck getting out!" Kalel smirked, casually looking at her nails.

"Oh shit... the fire's spread, There's no way out.." Ian scratched his head, he was slightly scared.

Ryan walked over to Mark and tried to wake him up, "Mark! You okay?"

He groaned as he slowly opened his eyes, having another coughing fit, "W-What the?!" He shouted.

"C'mon! There no time to be asking questions.." Ryan quickly helped him up, carefully carrying Alice and frantically searching for a way out. I picked up Arixa gently and Ian held Paige cautiously.
I looked at Arixa in my arms, my eyes swelled up with tears when I looked at her pale face, her limp, light body was sprawled in my arms. She won't die on me, I won't let her die on me, I choked on tears and coughed roughly as the smoke got thicker, I felt light-headed; but that's when I spotted the door leading to a flight of stairs outside. The stairs didn't look too stable, but what other choice was there? Arixa didn't have much time, her pulse was weak and slow, this was our best option.

"Look! A fire exit!" I shouted, holding Arixa close and coughing uncontrollably, "D-D-Don't worry...I'll get y-you out of here A-Ari..." I muttered, her head naturally rested on my chest.

"It doesn't look too safe.." Ian sighed, glancing at the rusty, paint-faded metal steps.

"What other fucking choice do we have?!" Ryan shouted, holding Alice close to him.

Without hesitation, I kicked the door very hard, making it fall instantly. I zoomed down the steps, Ryan, Mark and Ian following, by the time Mark stepped off the last step, the whole set of stairs collapsed straight away. We ran back round to the front, we were coughing uncontrollably and we had burn marks all over us. The next thing I knew, we were running past one of the doors...

"BOOM!"

It exploded sending me, Mark, Ryan and Ian to the floor, stunned. Alice, Paige and Arixa fell out of our arms... We desperately scrambled to our feet, running to their bodies. They were still unconscious, we got extremely worried very quickly...
