Noir: Chapter 1 Part 3

At the instant the bullet screeched from the gun, the man reached swiftly into his pocket and threw something that made contact with the bullet. A deafing explosion erupted showering the street with a blinding light.
' What the hell?! ' Len and Louis shouted in suprise as they shielded their eyes against the intense bright rays.
The light quickly dissolved in a matter of seconds revealing a large crater in the center of the street that had been between them. A large cracm now split the street in half, the huge hole reaching deep into the earth.
' How did you...?! ' Len stuttered staring at the chunks of earth that was littered around them in awe.
A musical laughter interrupted their confusion as the smoke began to slowly clear away.
' Did you really think that I would go down that easily? ' Chandlier chuckled, reveailing his sharp k9's. ' What a bunch of naive children who think that they can suddenly start playing hero.. ' He reached a gloved hand into his pocket, pulling out a deck of cards. Shuffling the cards in between his hands, the corners of his mouth turned up into a sinister grin.
' Now, let's play a game shall we? '

At the end of the tunnel there was a bright light, and there he was smiling at me, his hand outstretched waiting for me to come join him. I can finally see him again.
' Mary...Mary come in. '
Sheila mused into my earpiece. I yawned sleepily, stretching out my arms from the short nap and i reached out for my doll to make sure that it was still there in my arms. His ruby colored eyes stared back at me with the same blank look, and the shaggy black hair swept over his porcelein face that i had so carefully sculpted.
' What is it Shelia? ' I replied with another yawn, tugging on the doll's clothes to make sure that everything was in its perfect place.
' It's almost time for your part; Len and Louis have just made contact with the target and they ran into some trouble. '
So fast already? I really wanted to sleep more and dream of him....
' I really don't want to... ' i mummbled softly to myself, hugging my doll closer. Something hit my shoulder startling me as i turned around.
' Mary! Stop complaining and go help them! ' The little doll shouted at me, her wavy brown hair billowing out from her pretty face. She brushed off her green skirt in a humph then turned her blazing green eyes back at me. ' Hurry up and get ready to go! '
' Leah! Calm down. ' Hector mummured walking up to pat Leah's small shoulders. His larger build made him tower over her petite size. He had cropped short brown hair with calm blue eyes, and a personality the opposite of the ever moody Leah's. ' Mary, Louis needs your help now. '
I sighed in defeat. Pulling up my shoulder length hair forward into loose ponytails i walked briskly over to the tall mirror. Smoothing out my knee length blue dress i looked at the reflection that stared back at me. The girl that stared back at me couldn't be any older then 14, the curves of the teenage years had yet to touch her body. A small blue dress fluttered away from her body, black leggins underneath it peeked out from her knee-high laced ebony boots. Her face was childish and pale, the black hair framing her face as it came down to her below her shoulders. But the thing that caught my eye was the reflection in the blue eyes. The eyes of someone who has known many many years, and a broken sadness that never seems to leave them fully.
[ ' What will you do? Will you choose the same path as me or let the darkness take you? ' ]
That man's annoying voice echoed in my hand, reminding me of why I was here. Why I looked like this, why it was the reason I was still alive even though he was gone.
' The darkness will not make me bow down. ' I said bitterly looking back into the mirror with glowing eyes. ' Because I will kill you before it does. '
