When we reached the factory, we started to shoot up everyone and everything while red lights flashed after we entered.

"It's surely the right place." I informed while aiming my gun throughout the place.

"How can you even tell?" Chase asked as he watched my back while I watched his.

"There's Sam." I stated while pointing my gun at Sam and he ran around the back.

"Kill every one of them, if you don't know fucking them. Chase." I informed while signaling to Chase and everyone nodded before they scattered.

Chase followed me as I went around to the back then when we reached the back of the factory, I saw Ashley and everything happened slowly.

"Ashley, watch out!" I heard Aaron yelling then there was a gunshot. They both fell to the ground while I saw Sam holding the gun so I shot him straight in the back of his head then he fell to the ground, dead.

Lexi and Jada screamed so I ran over to Ashley. She opened her eyes and her hazel orbs met mine but something was definitely off in the way she looked at me. She was fine but Aaron was breathing quite too hard.

"Ashley, are you okay?" I asked while hugging her.

"Aaron!" James said so I broke the hug with Ashley then I realized that Aaron took the shot.

"I am sorry, Tyson... I didn't know he had them or why... Please forgive me. Ashley and everyone else... Please." Aaron said while coughing up blood.

"Stay, strong bro. Someone call the fucking ambulance." James yelled as the rest came over to us.

"The police are on the way so we have to go! Now!" Carlos informed us.

"We can't just leave him like this." Jada snapped at him.

"Go!" Aaron said while pushing James and he sighed.

"Tell us one thing." I started and he nodded.

"Who's your stepbrother?" I asked curiously.

"He's a guy... from the past and he was sent to prison... for a crime based... on a girl. I don't know... what he did or... who's the girl or how he.... got out but... he's back for revenge. His name is..." He suddenly stopped as his body went stiff then his eyes closed.

"Fuck!" Lexi cried and Mason hugged her.

"Rest in peace, brother." James stared at him and they nodded so I sighed.

"Let's go!" Chase yelled and I pulled Ashley up from the ground though she was acting... Weird?

Justin hugged her and she hugged him back then we all made it back to the minivan.

"Um, Tyson. There is something I should probably tell you." Lexi slowly said as the van drove away while the factory exploded in flames.

"I can't believe that we still don't know who's the boss." I said to myself while looking at my gun.

"Tyson." Lexi said.

"James, do you know Aaron's stepbrother?" I asked curiously and he shook his head.

"I don't know any family of his." He said bluntly while staring at me and I sighed.

"Tyson, listen to me!" Lexi snapped at me and I looked at her.

"What?" I asked annoyed.

"He's Tyson?" Ashley suddenly asked as she stared at Lexi.

There was not a single sound after that and the van came to an halt. It felt like the whole world has stopped and my life ended when I heard those fucking words.

What did they do to her?

******

Reaching the hospital, we got a doctor to check up on the girls. After a few hours of waiting, the doctor finally came to us.

"The girls seem fine but just a few bruises." He said to us and we nodded.

"I am going to ask them a few questions then I will tell you the result and may I ask, where are their parents and what happened?" The doctor asked bluntly and we all looked at each others.

"Um, their parents are at work.'' Chloe lied to him and he slowly nodded.

"So, what happened? You guys went cliff diving or something?" He asked and they laughed at that point until he raised an eyebrow at us.

"Um yes." They all said at once and he said 'okay' awkwardly before leaving.

"That was close." Mason said while rolling his eyes and they nodded while some sighed though I kept still and quiet.

*******

"Ashley?" Chloe asked while hugging her as the rest of us entered. Then Chloe went over to Lexi and Jada so I looked at Ashley.

"Ashley, how do you feel?" I asked awkwardly and she slowly looked at me.

"Okay." She said before looking away from me then I knew she was nervous.

"I am really sorry. I am trying my best to remember you guys, but I can't." She suddenly said while breaking the silence in the room and I sighed.

"Don't worried, we are here for you, Ashley." Sabrina said while looking sad and we nodded.

"It's not your fault so don't stress yourself." I presumed as I touched her shoulder and she tensed up at my touch.

"Okay, let's run some tests now." The doctor informed us as he entered with a nurse. We gave them a little space then Lexi and Jada got all the questions right so now, it was Ashley's time.

"So, what's your name?" The Doctor asked Ashley.

"Um, Ashley." She said while touching her hair which hung over shoulders and the doctor nodded.

"Can you identify everyone in this room?" He asked curiously and she slowly looked at everyone.

"I d-don't know.... The only person I remember is my brother, Justin." Ashley said while looking at Justin and my chest tighten.

"It seems like you have a memory loss, but your memories will come back sooner or later if you try refreshing your mind. We will run a few more test on you to make sure, then you can go home in the evening. We will give you a small prescription of pills and you have to rest for a few days then you will have to try refreshing your memories with the help of your friends." The doctor said and she nodded.

"I would advise you all to help her remember what she needs to know." He informed us and we nodded.

Therefore, he left as the nurse did some checking up on Ashley and we went outside the room. We settled in the empty seats in the hallway and suddenly I got a call.

It was Noah.

"Yes?" I asked.

"We got a problem." He informed me and I sighed while he explained the situation.

He said, Taylor was now dead and that some gangsters came to the gang house, few minutes ago and trashed the place with gunshots. Then killing Taylor while Noah, himself was protecting Mia and Zoe but they were in face masks so he didn't recognize any.

The three of them are fine but they got a few bruises from the gunshots but the gangsters killed Taylor which was the only choice we had in figuring out who's the real Boss and who's working for him.

Now we can't find anything at all because we have no options or details and no one knows the real Boss or who's working for him.

I gotta say, he planned this very well before striking us, but how long has he been watching us?

Who is this fucking dude?
