The New BossA Chapter by BrynnaW.
The three men held their guns steady as Mason and I put our hands up. One of the men brought up a chair and sat in front of us while we were sitting on the bed. He motioned for the men next to him to put their guns down before he smiled.
"Hello, having a nice day?" He said. "We were until you came in." I replied and one of the men stepped up to me but the man stopped him. "You know, it's really hard to stop these men so I suggest you shut up before someone gets hurt." He paused for a moment but I didn't speak, "Ah, good. Now, I would introduce myself as that is the proper way in meetings but I can't. You see, you killed the boss and a new one has to step up in his place. I, gladly, volunteered. So, do you know what this means?" I shook my head slightly in rebellion with a plan forming in my mind. "You little twit, of course you do. It means that I have to kill you but how shall I? Shall I make it a slow painful death or straight to the point?" "Well, as the new leader you are supposed to learn for the mistakes of the old one. Exactly what got him killed?" One of the men hit me but I barely flinched. "Your grenade -----" "Sure, it was a grenade but what forced us to do it? What forced my hand to pull the pin?" I was on one foot for a second before the men pushed me back down. I watched as the new leader brought up his gun and I knew I had pushed him too far. I grabbed my fake leg off of the bed and brought it down on his head. The man stumbled back while the other men stepped up in his place. Mason took one of the men while I took the other. I could only fight when I was sitting down and using the fake leg as a weapon. The blows from the leg bruised the man's skin and made him tumble to the ground. I smiled at the leg, maybe I could get used to it. Mason was still fighting the other man with his one good arm. I wanted to help but they were out of my reach. I threw the leg at the man. It hit him but the man seemed to be in shock at what had happened. Mason kicked him to the ground and the new boss ran off. Mason brought me back the leg and we quickly fastened it to my leg stump. We started running out of the hospital room. I stumbled and nearly fell but Mason gripped my arm so tightly that I would have been dragged into the ground. We made it outside but the man had already escaped.
