The Last Embrace Chapter 200
Advertisement
Done with everything, she's ready to go.
She teleported into the nearest downtown, she emerged in the corner of the deserted dark alley. Then she began walking into the center of the commercial district. Shops, boutiques and all establishment in the area were still open, people were busy milling in the streets.
She walked towards the pawnshops that were lining up in the street, she took out one gold nugget from her sling bag and have it appraised at the first pawnshop...the offer was flat $35 thousand, the next store offered $30 thousand...the third store offered $45 thousand...the fourth store offered $40 thousand and the last pawnshop offered $60 thousand.
She looked on her right, there is one store with a signage that says they are buying gold nuggets at a higher price. Jessy went across the street and walked towards the store. She has the gold nugget appraised...she was offered $70 thousand for it....she sold the gold nugget right away, after counting the money Jessy put the paper bills into her sling bag.
Two men standing beside a motorcycle nearby was watching Jessy as she put the money inside her sling bag.
Jessy saw the men out of the corner of her eyes but did not pay any attention to them, she walked across the street towards the store that sells all types of bags.
She walked inside the store and brought two cute pink pouch bags. Done paying the cashier of her purchases, she exited the store and about to go back to the dark alley to teleport herself back in the Facility but the moment she was about to cross the street the rain starts trickling, then a few minutes later the rain was falling hard creating puddles in the ground. She looked to her right and saw the nearest seafood restaurant.

Her stomach grumbled she had not eaten dinner yet!
She walked towards the restaurant, inside, she ordered lobsters with garlic butter, two slices of roasted salmon and one cup of rice with one glass of ice tea. Fifteen minutes later the food she ordered was delivered by the waitress in her table, she began eating her meal. She sipped the ice tea and looked outside through the glass wall, the rain still pouring hard, then she saw the two men across the street they parked the motorcycle at the store where they were standing, they were occasionally glancing at her direction.
She pretended not to notice them.
Thirty minutes later, the rain has finally stopped.
Jessy exited the restaurant and walked towards the dark alley, she can always go to the toilet of the restaurant...entered an empty cubicle and from there teleport to the Facility but she wanted to know if those guys have bad intention towards her.
She was already in the dark alley, her suspicion was correct the moment she heard the engine of the motorcycle following her from behind, she looks over her shoulder, they are getting closer!
One of the men jumped out of the motorcycle the moment it stopped beside her and snatched her sling bag and ran towards the motorcycle that awaits him.
"Bastard! Give me back my bag!" she shouted at the men angrily.
The man who snatches the sling bag boarded the motorcycle and they speed out of the dark alley.
Jessy sighed. She went to the darkest area of the alley and immediately transformed into her invisible form, she rose into the air and saw the motorcycle speeding ahead in the street. She zoomed towards them and tailed the motorcycle from behind.
Thirty minutes later.
The motorcycle entered a sleepy neighborhood and the driver stopped in front of a modest type house with only a few neighbors can be seen in between.

The men entered the house and locked it from the inside.
The burly guy and the thin guy put their guns in the chair then emptied the sling bags contents into the table.
"Holy shit! These are real gold nuggets! We are gonna be rolling with money after we sell these precious metal!" said the burly guy putting the shiny metal nuggets in his palm.
The thin-looking guy grabs the thousand dollar bills with both hands. "OMG! This is dope! We have lots of money now! That girl is loaded!"
"Get me a beer in the fridge!" the burly guy said to the thin guy.
The thin guy put the money back in the table and stood up, he went to the kitchen where the fridge was situated.
Before he can open the fridge, Jessy waved her hand at him and freeze him.
She went to the living room and freeze the burly guy as well. She picked up the money and the gold nuggets and put them back into the sling bag. She wore the sling bag on her shoulder before she exited the house she unfreezes the men.
Outside the house, she heard the men's loud voice arguing...
"Where the hell is the gold nuggets, you shitfaced!?"
"Give it back! you scoundrel!"
They were asking and shouting at each other why the gold nuggets and the money was gone. Soon enough they were accusing each other...all of a sudden...BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!... Jessy heard loud gunshots destroying the quietness of the night, it's coming from the house!
What the heck!?
Dang!
Do they shoot each other?
Are they really that stupid and greedy?
She went back inside the house to see the men still pointing guns at each other with blood splattered all over their faces.
Jesus Christ!
They were still breathing though...the burly guy got gunshot wound on his ear and shoulder then the thin guy got gunshot wound grazing his temple and another on his arm.
Jessy grimaced.
Stupid men!
What she's going to do?
She freezes the men so that the blood stopped oozing out from their wounds. She went outside the house, the nearest neighbors have all their lights on and must have already called 911 after hearing the gunshots.
Jessy sighed shaking her head.
She just went downtown to sell the gold, buy two cute pouches, eat dinner in a restaurant and before she can even go home, the ending is a disaster not for her though but for the guys, she groaned.
She waited for the police car and the paramedics to arrive.
Thirty minutes later.
Jessy unfreezes the two men after hearing the sound of the police siren coming.
The ambulance and police car arrives and the wounded men were being loaded into the ambulance.
Phew! What a night!
Jessy rose in the air and teleported into the facility shaking her head.
After she arrived in her room in the Facility, she put the cute pink pouch bag into the table smiling—remembering baby Oliver and baby Emily. She will see them soon.
She discarded her clothes and put them in the bed, then she changed into blue jeans, a white t-shirt, and steps into her comfy slippers. She will go back to the clinic to do one blood transfusion before retiring for the night.
