Chapter XVII
Amelia's voice overcame the men's footsteps.
"Once I’m free, you'll see what I'll do to you." She screamed and the sound was carried throughout the ship.
"We have to help them!" I told Emma.
"Do we?" She asked.
"Yes! That's why I set you free, that's what you're going to do." I told her; I had enough of her games. There was no time for fooling around.
"Since you asked nicely, I'll help you. They must have taken them to the control room." Emma said, holding the knife with two fingers, "You're going to have to serve as a decoy."
"What?! I'm not really enjoying this idea."
"It's the only one we have. They're more than us. We have to be smart."
"What if it goes wrong?"
"Well, the worst that can happen is they kill us. They just want them, apparently. They have no idea we're here."
"There's no worse than that, Emma. You're not very good at consoling someone." I told her and I giggled. I knew it wasn't the best time to laugh, but I couldn't help myself.
She lowered her head, letting her hair fall on her face and covering the slight curvature of her lips.
"Come on, let's do this." She said, before looking into the next corridor, "from here you can see the control room. They arrested them. You're going to show up here and make fun of them. Then, you're going to pretend to run and I'll surprise them."
"You're the experienced one here, aren't you?" I told her.
Before I even jumped to my death, I took a deep breath. I had to do something for them. After all the help they had given me, it was the least I could do. I had to protect them. Emma was standing next to me, leaning against the wall, with the knife in her hand, "Will you take long?"
"No. I'm going now. Don't rush me."
I also looked once before jumping into the middle of the hall. At least five men gathered in a circle and behind the three girls. Matilda's blue hair stretched across the floor while Jessy and Amelia were on the floor, leaning against one of the command tables.
Finally, I mustered the courage to do it. I popped up at the end of the hall and screamed until they all looked at me. Amelia screamed at me to run away but I didn't move even though my knees were shaking, and my head was just an empty hole. It was fear, it was affliction, but it was also courage. I had to be like them. I wanted to be like Amelia or Emma.
"Get him!" One of the men, possibly the boss, said and pointed to three of them.
The men started running towards me. They filled the whole wide corridor and the closer they got, the bigger they seemed. The shoulders grew, the legs got fatter, the faces even uglier, every detail standing out.
"Move!" Emma kept repeating, but my feet seemed to be stuck to the ground.
My body heated up in an instant and my stomach was spinning.
