Betrayal Page 5

  “You must love a dramatic entrance, or do you go off key words? If so, please tell me those words.”

  “Wigs, I suggest you leave, and tell your boss that you will not get Luna. But you kids now a days don’t listen, so I don’t think you would take my suggestion.” Mr. Wonderful said. “I would ask you how in the world did you pull this one over on me, but at this time I really don’t give a crap.”

  “I’m gonna have to second that.” My tears were starting to slow up. Wigs looked like he was going to attack, but he backed away.

  “This isn’t over!”

  “I guess being a bad guy has made you smarter,” I said as he ran pass me and out the alleyway. I felt so alone, even though I had Mr. Wonderful with me in the alleyway. I couldn’t hold back the tears, and let them free fall on my cheeks again. All of a sudden I felt a hand on my shoulder.

  “Luna…”

  “Why…” I couldn’t finish the sentence. I was chocked up. A close friend was now my enemy. Where was the loyalty in this world? I understand the thought process, but he still had time to save himself before making that decision. As I thought of it I cried harder. Who else was going to turn against me? I was emotionally exhausted, and didn’t want to fight this battle. I should have let him take me in. Then I felt myself embrace Mr. Wonderful, and he didn’t back away. Of course, he was dressed in all black and in a big hood so I couldn’t see his face, but I just shoved my face into his chest. He was a little shorter than Wigs but not much. I sobbed some more. I know, I’m such a wuss, but due to the circumstance I think I’m allowed.

  “What do we do now?” I asked.

  “We fight back.” He responded.
