We've been spending the last two weeks getting everything ready for our move. We weren't packing a lot of clothes and all the furniture is staying here so we really had nothing major to do. I started house hunting with Storm's help but that was going to continue when we get to Bora Bora.

We're going to stay in a penthouse suite in a hotel until we find a comfortable place to live, since Storm is still scared of the villas in the water. We plan on leaving tomorrow so today we're just covering the furniture and packing somethings in boxes that we're going to donate. We also had a lot of food products still so we were giving those away too, since it doesn't make sense

It doesn't make sense to leave the electrical things here since we won't be back for a while so why not give them away to people that actually need them. It was actually Storm's idea cause the rest of us really weren't thinking about that.

Speaking about Storm she was crossed off of the 'suspect' list and was free to go on with her life, but that didn't stop her crazy ass incubator from screaming and telling anybody that would give her the time of day that it was Storm's fault. But nobody believed her though even though it is true. I mean would you believe somebody that gets doped up everyday? True or not they lost their creditability and that's exactly what happened to her. I have to say though it was really funny watching her do all of that.

"Arlo!" Levi screamed from downstairs.

"What girl!?" I yelled back, while covering the couches in my room.

After I finished that I went downstairs to see what the yelling of my name was for.

"What you need Lev?" I asked her.

"Nothing, I just wanted to annoy you." She gave me a lopsided smile.

"I'll give you a five second head start before I get you for playing on my name." I said looking at her.

"You playing." She laughed.

"1." I started.

"Arlo stop playing." She whined.

"3." I subtly started to move.

"Sis I was just playing."

"5, run bitch run." I said starting to run after her.

She let out a squeal and started running the opposite way of me. See I was nice enough to give her a head start but nah she didn't take me seriously, so who's fault is that? Cause it ain't mine. She ran to the kitchen where Storm and Ro were putting food in boxes, she went behind the counter that was by the fridge.

"Arlo stop, it was a joke." She laughs but stays on her side of the counter.

"Can you both just focus on your tasks?" Storm asked in her mom voice.

"She started it." I said pointing to Levi.

"How did I start? I was just calling you down here."

"You called me knowing you didn't want shit but to waste my time, so now i'm here wassup?"

I tried to find a possible way that I could get her, maybe if I jump on the counter and grab her hair. Yeah that sounds possible. I didn't answer her but I got ready to jump on the counter when Storm stopped me.

"Arlo be nice to your sister and don't think about jumping on that counter."

"That's not fair." I whined, stomping my legs.

Levi laughed at me and I swear was going to jump over and snatch her ass up for being a pain in my ass.

"Levi stop tormenting your sister before I let her get you." Strom tuned looking at both of us.

"Okay, am I the only one that thinks Storm sounds like a mom of like three kids." Rowan laughed.

"Because y'all act like children, i'm practicing on you." She laughed.

"At least we're helping with our childish ways." Levi smiled.

"That's the most optimistic view one could have with my statement." Storm said.

"Anyways we're almost done here, so y'all can bring the boxes from upstairs down here and start loading the truck" Strom ordered.

Levi and I both nodded and started working upstairs but I had to get my lick in so I popped her in the back of her head and then ran upstairs.

"I'm going to get you ho." Lev said running after me.

"Catch me first lil girl." I ran into Storm and I's room locking the door behind me.

"I hate you." She mumbled slamming her hands on the door.

"Gotta be quicker than that." I taunted her.

"Dumb bitch." She said before walking away.

"Takes one to know one." I laughed.

We put our petty play aside and stated on moving the boxes downstairs and to the truck. We rented a truck to move the boxes cause they wouldn't fit in my cars so why not get a truck for the day. I really didn't know we had so much electrical shit, like ain't no way I should have boxes full of that shit.

Rowan switched with Levi to take the boxes in the truck with me, while Storm and Levi finished up with the food. I'm a type of person that likes to bulk buy my food, I hate going to the store regularly so I just stock up on food and buy everything in bulks, it's expensive yes but easier. So the shelter that this is all is going to will be very happy about that.

After we packed everything up we decided that Rowan and I would go to drop everything off and Strom and Lev would stay here just to finish up whatever needed to be done.

"When you're coming home can you buy me a Oreo mcflurry and fries?" Strom asked me with her little puppy dog eyes.

"Is that all?" I asked.

"Are you calling me fat?" Her eyes started to shine with tears.

"Of course not baby, I just know that you're going to be hungry later so I wanted to make sure you and our baby are good. Okay love?" I reassured her kissing the back of her hand.

"Okay bubba." She smiled.

"Now what should I bring back for you?"

"I don't know, you can get me somethings from McDonalds."

"Anything for you love, how about you Levi?" I asked as she came out of the kitchen towards us.

"Aww you would still buy me food even though I annoyed you?" She asked teasingly.

"If you don't shut up with all that and just tell me what you want." I rolled my eyes waiting for her answer.

"Damn take a joke uptight much. And Rowan knows my order so she'll get it." She answered.

"Alright we'll be back soon, try to stay out of trouble." I playfully said.

Strom rolled her eyes leaning up to give me a kiss which I happily returned. My hands snaked around her waist drawing her closer to me deepening the kiss. See shit like this is what makes me forget that I actually have places to go cause I'm ready to pick her up and lock us in the bedroom for the rest of the day. Before I could act out what I was thinking I felt Strom and I separate and a hand on my chest.

I opened my eyes and it was Rowan ugly self looking up at me with a goofy ass grin on her face.

"See that kiss looked like a 'fuck me' kiss and we don't have time for that right now." Rowan laughed.

"She's right go." Storm gently pushed me away.

"Always blocking my fun." I mumbled kissing Storm on the cheek and running over to Levi to pinch her.

"Arlo i'm gonna fuck you up!" She yelled.

"I love you too little sis." I yelled back.

I got in the drivers seat in the car and waited for Rowan to get in. Once she did she fastened her seatbelt and before I started driving this girl punched the shit out of my arm.

"Fuck that shit hurts." I said rubbing my arm.

"That's for messing with my girl." She said sitting back with a evil smile on her face.

I started driving to the charity that all this stuff is going to. As we drove I kept seeing Rowan kept squirming in her seat.

"You good bro?" I asked her, a little worried myself.

"I gut feeling that something is going to go wrong." She said looking around.

Her intuition was always her saving grace so I was on guard right now.

"Just one more day Rowan, one more day."

"One more day." She repeated still on edge.

After they left Levi and I were laid out in the living room tired as hell. Well I'm normally very tired cause it feels like this baby is sucking the energy out of me making me sleep like every fucking hour.

"You okay Stormy?" Levi asked.

"Girl i'm tired." I gave a little laugh.

"Don't worry, soon you'll be in Bora Bora laid out on the beach watching the sunset." She sighed sounding like she's ready to be there too.

"I really can't wait to get out of here and start something new."

"I think we're all ready for a new start. But what about your business?"

"I found a person to run it while i'm away but they're going to send me all the financial documents cause ain't nobody gonna scam me."

"Smart, smart. Is Arlo doing the same thing?"

"Yeah she is, she's the one that found some one to run mine."

"Ah okay, I see. But come on I need help to finish packing."

"Girl i'm tryna sleep not pack." I whined.

"Pleasee Storm." She begged giving me her puppy dog eyes.

"Fine but you're going to give me a massage after." I said getting up doing a little stretch.

"Alright bet." She held my hand dragging me to her room.

She got her suitcases and I sat on her bed starting to fold her clothes.

"I thought you said you wanted help to finish packing, it looks like you ain't even start." I rolled my eyes.

"In my defense I packed Rowan's bags and maybe one of mine."

"I can't say anything because I packed Arlo's bags and then mine."

"You know we have lazy girl friends." She laughed.

"But they find energy to do other things, for example breaking backs." I laughed saying.

"Lol, turning into Hulk and some shit." She added.

We continued talking for the rest of the time we packed and it was all good. We packed one of her suitcases and was in the middle of packing the other when I wanted to go get my phone that was in Mine and Arlo's room.

"I'll be back in a minute." I got up going to my room.

My phone was on the dresser that was right next to the window facing the back of the house. I stared out in the forest, well was it really a forest? I don't know but it was just trees going on for a while, but there is a road leading back to the city.

As I was looking out I swore I felt like something was looking back at me. I felt eyes watching my every move and goosebumps came on my skin. I kept looking for a couple seconds more until I saw movement.

'Fuck, okay act cool.' I said to myself acting as if I don't see anything.

I turned to walk away normally dialing Arlo's number in my phone. I could hear my heart beating in my ears and my blood running cold.

"Hey baby what's up?" Her calm voice filled my ears.

"People are watching the house." I whispered my breathing shaky.

I fast walked into Levi's room closing the door behind of me.

"Baby calm down, where are they?" She asked.

Levi looked at me worried seeing me in this state.

"They're in the back, hiding behind the trees." I said shaking feeling myself hyperventilate.

"Put Levi on the phone baby." My hands shook handing her the phone.

She connected her air pods and gave me one.

"Sis where are you?" She was scared like me but she handled it better, she was really composed.

"We're about and hour away, you know the back up plan if anything like this was to go down." She started.

"In your closet you have a packed bag with all you important documents and Levi's is there too. Same thing goes for Storm and I in our closet. Go get the bags together."

"Okay hold on." Levi said getting her bags together.

"Be strong okay, you both will be fine." She reassured.

"I'm going to go hurry to get ours." I tried to compose myself.

"Wait no, let me go." Levi said holding my wrist.

"No go get yours I got this." I just to reassure her but I think I was more so trying to reassure myself.

I fast walked to our room but before I got in I got on my knees crawling so they wouldn't see me back in here and get tipped off that I know that they are there. I Crawled to the closet opening the closet seeing only two bags in it so I knew those had to be the ones she was talking about. I put one on my back and then I held the other one crawling back out.

My heart felt like it was going to explode knowing that they could attack at any minute. They really caught us slipping today and if I make it out of this I swear I'll never let them catch me like this again.

I got to the door of the room and then I stood up running back to Levi's room.

"Okay we got the bags what's next?" Levi said.

As soon as those words came out of her mouth I heard glass breaking.

"Shit they're in the house." She ran to close the door and we both moved the dresser to barricade the door.

"Go in our closet and lock it behind of you. In your bags you'll find guns so if it comes to that you'll be ready to shoot." This time it was Rowan's voice.

We both opened the bags and took the guns and ammo that was in there. We heard loud foot steps coming up the stairs and it mirrored the beating of my heart.

"There's a lever for a safe passage out of the house okay? Feel around on the wall, it should be a round button." Rowan said.

We started felling around, good thing the closet was small so it wasn't a lot of space to cover. As we we're hurriedly searching the door began to pound.

"They're pounding on the door." I whispered.

"One of you need to cover the other while they search for it." Rowan said.

"I'll cover keep searching Storm." She gave my shoulder a squeeze and I kept searching.

They broke down the door and threw a bottle bomb in. Note to self if I make it out of here get steel enforced doors. Smoke was filling the room making it harder to focus, I used my shirt to cover my nose so It would slow down my smoke inhaling.

Levi turned to me quickly and put one finger to her lips signaling for me to make no noise. I turned back and as soon as I did that a gun shot sounded and it was directed in the closet. After that one shot more sounded in our direction and that's when Levi sounded out her shots. Lucky thing is the closet doors had really thick wood so it gave a little cover.

"Fuck." Levi mumbled.

"What's happened?" Both Arlo and Levi asked.

"They threw a bottle bomb in and now they're shooting."

One minute I was looking for the button then the next minute my shoulder was howling in pain. I bit my lip to not make a sound, my hand that was pressed on the wall slipped and I must have found the button because the door opened.

"Come on Lev." I puled her in the opening the door closed on it's own.

I didn't focus on the pain in my arm, instead I forced the pain into energy to get the fuck out of this alive. The door that we stepped into started moving.

"We're in the elevator, what now?" Levi asked catching her breath.

"It's going to lead you to a underground path follow it and it'll lead you to a opening and we'll be there waiting." Rowan said, I could hear the panic in her voice but she was just holding it back.

"Are any of you hurt?" Arlo asked.

"I got grazed at my thigh, it's not bleeding though." Levi said, she turned around and checked me.

"What about Storm?"

"Shit she got shot in her shoulder and she's losing blood fast."

"You need to put pressure on the wound fast and yours too. I don't want it infected" Rowan instructed.

Levi opened the bag in her hand and got a shirt ripping it and tying it around me and a piece around her too. As she did that I felt like I was hearing steps behind us.

"We have to go." I said and started running.

'How the fuck did they find the damn button before us? Oh yeah I touched my shoulder and then the wall' I thought.

Levi was faster than me because she didn't have baby weight holding her back and with the weights of the bags, yeah I'm going through it.

"How far is the opening?" Levi asked still running.

"It's about a mile long, we're almost there. Please hang in there." Rowan begged.

My adrenaline picked up as I heard shots firing behind of us.

'Why the fuck did they even look for us in a burning room, like fuck do you want us dead that much?' I thought in my head.

We kept running for what felt like hours and my lungs felt like it was on fire. The smoke inhalation plus all this running is doing some fucked up shit to me. Both Rowan and Arlo were giving us words of assurance and I was trying to focus on them but my body was on fire.

"We're almost there and they're catching up to us." Levi said trying to push through it.

I saw a door coming up ahead and that pushed me more seeing that we are so close. Levi and I started running faster until we reached the door pulling it open. We landed in a dirt road but there was a fence and Arlo and Rowan were at the other side.

"Why the fuck didn't you tell us about the fence?' I asked breathing heavily.

"It wasn't there before." Rowan said.

"Come on let's climb."

We started climbing and It was harder for me because of my shoulder, so by the time I got to the top they caught up to us and started shooting. I felt another sharp pain pulsing through my body but this time it was my thigh. That caused me to lose my footing and fall but Levi was there to catch me while Arlo and Rowan covered us.

She carried me to the back of the truck and laid me down, her moving to the passengers side joining Arlo and Rowan shooting. They quickly came into the car, Arlo coming in the back with me laying my head in her lap. Rowan was in the drivers seat and Lev in the passengers seat.

"Are you okay sis?" Arlo asked checking over Lev as we sped away.

"I'm okay just a graze and I landed on my ankle wrong. They're attention was mostly towards storm from what I could see." She strained out, I feel like her pain was worse but she wasn't trying to show it.

Arlo looked down at me and I saw losing my consciousness.

"Baby stay with me okay?" Tears were in here eyes.

"I love you all." My fingers stroking her cheek.

"Stay awake Stormy." I heard Levi's voice but it all felt distorted.

"Shh I want to sleep." I smiled, feeling my eyes close.

"Strom motherfucking Garcia don't you close your damn eyes." I heard a quiver or strain in Rowans voice.

"Night night." I smiled, my eyes closing going into a peaceful nothingness.

My life was filled with pain and torment, but you gave me purpose and happy moments. I'll never forget the moments we spent, engraved in my brain replacing every thing else. Don't forget me, and don't you cry. I'm in a happy place at the other side. Thank you all for being my BRIGHTSIDE

Unknown POV

"Did they get my massage?" I asked my trusted right hand facing my window.

"They definitely did boss." He replied smirking.

"Good job. You can go now."

I stared into the view with a smirk on my face.

"This is only the beginning."
