Once finished, he grabbed you again and shoved you inside. He grabbed the cover and joined you before putting the cover of the crate back on. 

It was.... a very awkward position. 

There wasn't a lot of space in here, so you both were practically squished together. You were laying down and crouching a little while he was on top of you in a sort of kabedon position but on the ground. 

Neither of you said a word. You took this time to listen to all the chaotic sound outside. 

Alarms were screeching through the air, the sprinklers weren't going off for some reason, faint gunshots were heard, and the crackling of fire was just a cherry on top. 

"Hey Zeke, why isn't the sprinkler working?" you asked. It was suspicious why it wasn't when it worked a few days ago when the cook accidentally burnt the food. 

"Probably because of Deimos." he replied. "He may be an annoying little gremlin, but he can kick people's asses extremely well and is an exceptional hacker." 

Well shit. 

Right after he said that , you heard the door being kicked open.

"Dammit, did the kid escape?" the more raspy sounding voice asked. He sounded a little annoyed. 

"No, they're just hiding somewhere. The exit and garage is blocked off by fire and none of the windows were smashed." 

"Might as well gather some supplies while we're at it then. There's no way the kid was left on their own. Probably with a strong agent as well." The sound of boots clacking against the floor came closer to the crate you both were hiding in. 

Double shit. 

Time did NOT seem to stop as the footsteps got closer. In fact, it felt like it sped up for some reason. Why the hell did they choose this crate first out of all the other ones. 

Once the crate was opened, they seemed to be confused at Zeke's back facing them. 

"Huh-" 

* b a n g *

"MOTHERFU-" 

You stood up on your knees like a meerkat to see what was going on. 

The guy in the visor stepped back while clutching onto his shoulder, presumabley where he was shot. 

The guy with glasses seemed to be in a state of shock. Or surprise I guess. He was caught off guard and stuff. 

Zeke took advantage of this moment and shot him in the stomach. The man grunted and clutched the area with his hands. 

You were slung over like a sack of potatoes and he sped out of the room at the speed of light. 

"Alright (Y/N)- we're gonna throw ourselves out a window and go on my pretty pink motorcycl-"  

"NOT THE TIME FOR JOKES ZEKE" 

"I KNOW, IT'S MY COPING MECHANISM ALRIGHT? Anyways, we're gonna go on my pink motorcycle and get the fuck out of here, caphice?" 

Before you could even answer, a piercing * b a n g * was heard and he stumbled to the floor. 

"FUCK. THIS IS THE WORST TIMING EVER." He took a quick breath and continued running. Sharp turns around hallways were made again and he went into another room again. He locked it and started pushing a bunch of stuff against the door. "Alright, change of plans: you are going to find a window and just run." 

"No. We are either getting out alive together or dying together." you said firmly. He groaned. 

"I love you and your loyalty but this is literally the WORST PLACE TO HAVE IT." he blew up in your face before taking some deep breaths to calm down. 

He must be really stressed. You never saw him blow up on anyone no matter the circumstances. 

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled at you, even if I was stressed. You're probably in the same state as well." he apologized. "But think about it. I'll die either way." 

"Huh" 

"You said it yourself. They're here to kidnap you. Not kill, kidnap." he stared deeply into your eyes. "And as you can see right now, they're willing to do anything you bring you back alive." 

"...So it's better for me to escape since I'll be alive either way." you finished. 

"Exactly." 

"But if we escape together-" 

"I'll still die. I literally cannot fucking focus with this bullet being a huge pain, so motorcycling isn't on the table of options. Plus, I'll die from blood loss before we can reach another headquarter by walking." 

...You probably could've thought of another option if you were in a better setting with a clearer head, but that isn't possible right now. 

There was no other option you could think of. 

"...Fine, what's the plan then." He looked relieved from you agreeing. 

"So-" 

* S L A M * 

* S L A M * 

* S L A M * 

The door was being kicked by the duo. 

"Imgonnathrowyououtthiswindowcya" He said quickly before you could even register his gibberish. 

"Wha-" He grabbed your small body and chucked you out the window without any warnin- well, he did give you one technically. 

You braced yourself for the impact of falling to the ground, squeezing your eyes shut....... 

......But it was surprisingly not as bad as you thought? 

You slowly opened your eyes and- 

Oh shit this is even worse. 

You were on top of Hank motherfucking Wimbleton. 

"ZEKE I'M BEING KIDNAPPED AGAIN" you yelled at the top of your lungs. You don't know why you called for him even though it's obvious he can't. 

"HUH-" 

* b a n g * 

He was shot before he could even finish his sentence. Your chest throbbed from remorse. 

You shouldn't have called for him. 

He could've died believing that you managed to run away. He could've been at peace thinking that his sacrifice was worth it. 

Why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him why did you call for him- 

Your train of thoughts was stopped from the feeling of being shifted into a different position. The rough hands grabbed you under your armpits and held you like that one scene in Lion King. 

"..." 

You both had a little staredown before he leaned his head back a bit. This confused you, until he thrusted his head forward....straight towards your head. 

Everything went dark after he headbutted you.
