Chapter 4: Chapter 4

Beck! Jesse yelled as he watch him been grabbed by the speedboat through the sea.

Cut the damn rope, idiot! Zach yelled at Leonid.

Alexia know the man will die, if that happens, it will be on her conscious, that her stupid dreams of getting married in a ship had ended up a disaster.

Seeing the distraction of Zach, she used the opportunity to bit the man wrist, he free his hand from Alexia wrist, she knee him on his private part, causing him to yelled again, Leonid turned, he need to help his boss that is in pain, Beck used the opportunity to move faster and get into the ship.

Leonid was almost closed to her when Beck charged at him, as soon as he get into the speedboat from behind. Zach is back on his feet and his face is far from anything pleasant, he can't believe that, a mere woman knee him so bad, he was going to attack her but she dodged him.

She knows she can't fight but at least she could help by throwing things at the man.

The man in charge of navigating the speedboat saw the act, he thought of helping his boss and Leonid, so he pulled it on automatic and brought out his gun

The sound of thunder and lightening make the sea darken, it show that it's about to rain, but that didn't bother Beck, he is fighting with Leonid while Zach keep chasing Alexia that is throwing things at him and running away from him. The man with the gun aimed at them.

Mr! Alexia called, this time, Beck was fast, he pulled Leonid in front of him, causing the bullet to go through to him. Blood was gushing out of his body and mouth, his body plummet to the floor.

Beck hurry to the man with the gun, just one swipe, he grabbed the gun and pushed the man into the sea. it's already storming, the sea is roughed, causing the boat to sway, as a result, the gun fall from Beck.

Zach eyes were now on the gun, he run to get the gun leaving Alexia that is now useless to him, he had lost all his men because he was greed and now, his own life is in danger. He keeps going after the gun that is rolling as a result of the movement of the boat.

Beck saw his movement and did same, he run to grabbed it, before he could grabbed it, Beck pulled the trigger as soon as he get the gun, the bullet went straight into Zach head, he too fall to the floor.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Alexia couldn't see, who just got shot, everywhere was darken and the storm is not helping matter. She closed her eyes, she can't bear to see the man that was about to save her fall to the floor.

Miss! He called as he rushed to her side, a sense of relief run in her system, is her savior not that monster, that demon that wants to adopt her. She is happy that they are both alive with all the demons dead.

Seeing the sea waves getting rough, Beck held her hand and guard her towards the lifeline. You should hold this firm, do not let it go, while I turned off the automatic pilot. She nodded at him, he turned it off fast and slow the boat so that the impact of the wave become less. He had to disconnect all electric equipment because of the lightening, nothing seems to be working even the communication radio that they could used to get help is off.

His eyes goes round looking for survival and emergency gear inside the speedboat.

Wear this! He shouted when he finally found one, she looks at him. Come on, you should wear it first, I will look for another. He explained, seeing the hesitation on her face, he help her wear the lifejacket then look for another, to his surprised he saw another, he had to put it on.

He move the two lifeless body of those monster one at the middle and the other at the lowest part of the boat. He try gathering every emergency and life-saving equipment, he could find, he pulled them at the backpack of the lifejacket, he make his way back to Alexia.

Can you swim? He asked, she shakes her head, his eyes bulge out, if she can't while was she at that place last night, although he didn't get a complete picture of the girl the previous night, seeing her flowing blonde hair, that is no longer tied, confirm, she is the one at the deck. The next thing, he tie her to himself.

What are you doing? Alexia asked.

It simple, if anything happens, we will still be together.

Together! She asked, Beck averted his gaze from her, right now, he felt like kissing her, he closed his eyes, trying to understand his stupid self, how could he think of kissing a girl, he doesn't know and they are even in danger right now.

Are we going to die? She murmured, as tears fall her eyes, she has been holding herself ever since the whole drama occurred but right now, she can't, she felt stupid, how could she put her family and friends in danger because of her selfish desire. She doesn't even know if her parents are okay or the bad men had taken them hostage as well.

General Beck doesn't know how to answered these words of the young lady, even though he is a soldiers, he still have a heart, he felt bad for the family of the girl even when he had no idea of who, the girl is, he too had his grandfather, the man may not survive it, if he found out that his grandson is no more.

Beck just let the boat follow the current state of the sea, steering it will be good as not steering it.

Alexia was already feeling cold because of the chilling winds, she shiver, Beck had no choice than to hug her tight. "You should be strong, so you could go back home" he whispered, she had a family to go to while he had a grandfather to go to, so surviving is a must for the two of them.

The military force finally arrived to secure the ship, all Zach men were already on the floor, they help the passenger on board out, prime minister Lee and his wife where waiting outside, including Xander and his father, Rick Fred and Jessica

Where is my daughter? Alexia, where is she? Lee asked, as he look at Jesse and Maya that just arrived, their faces are far from anything pleasant, he was told that, some soldiers had gone after his daughter, so he thought that they are one of them even though they are disguise.

We need to find them now, the speedboat was boarded by Alexia and general Beck that is in possession of those pirate. Jesse shouted at the soldiers. Even with the thunder and lightening roar, his stern voice could still be held clearly.

"But sir! It will be too dangerous to dispatch the men at this time, we need to escort you back to the shore before the storm wave head this way" squad leader replied him.

Jesse run his hand on his hair, the leader is right, considering the current weather, it's difficult to search for them but the face of prime minister Lee had made him give such order, the man has refused to leave, so do his family.

The entire place was dark, it's just the lightening that gives light once in a flash, the rain was way too much and a storm was coming, the earliest time to search for them, should be at daybreak.

Emily cry and fall down. You have to look for my daughter, search everywhere, I beg you. Her voice is already down, with tears rolling her eyes.

Darling stop it, they will search for her tomorrow, I am sure, we will find them, we can't risk others life because of her. Lee try to persuade his wife.

We have to leave sir, now before it get too dangerous. One of the soldiers said.

Few hours later they are all at the shore safely, where the medical team await them.

Lee could feel that Emily is going to drop down, she is already feeling uneasy, right from the moment her daughter was missing from the hall.

Emily! Lee called but the woman was already dropping to the floor, it's a good thing that Xander catch her on time. The doctor examine her thoroughly.

Hey, hurry up, will need to bring her to the hospital, she is going to fall into comatose if nothing is done fast.
