Dropping in on a new life! (Distain and Shibby )

Elise looked at him and nodded and she felt him kiss her hand. "I see..." She smiled a little and said "Thanks"
 
He smiled brightly pressing his lips into her stomach lightly before standing up slowly looking into her eyes. "How was your day sleeping?"
 
He smiled pressing his lips into hers lightly enjoying kissing her cheek lightly. "I am glad to hear that you need to rest more. "
 
Elise smiled and said "I'll be right" she said chuckling. "We should go to dinner and get something to eat before we all head out"
 
Stephen smiled eating with one hand rubbing her back lightly hoping to cheer her up. He was worried that the stress of her job was going to kill her.
 
Elise continued to eat slowly. Once they had finished eating, everyone met in the living room. She put on a brave face and said "Lets go and get this job done"
 
Stephen stood handing out weapons to everyone handing Adrian his rifle before taking both Elise's and his on his shoulders so she could lead with out being encumbered.
 
Once they were all ready to go they walked out of the house and hopped into the pothole outside. Once everyone was in, she made sure to close it before she began to lead them all to the opening closest to where the checkpoint they had taken over.

Once she found the entrance she was looking for she opened the pothole and looked around first, checking before climbing out. The two german "gaurds" standing at the checkpoint grinned at them as they got out. Quickly everyone began to hide and take positions.

Elise headed over to a near by double storey building. She opened the door and walked up to the upper floor. She was rushing but the she heard male voices, speaking in german. hey had gotten lucky it seemed they had slacked off on their watch and were sitting around playing poker.

She indicated to Stephen and took out her pistol and began to walk up the stairs silently.
 
Stephen did the same he knew enough german to understand a surrender and order them to do so. When they entered the room he drew down on one speaking sternly in german for them to put there hands up and get on the floor. His finger on the trigger ready to react.
 
Elise glared at the Germans as they got down on her floor. She ordered them to hand over their weapons. Slowly they took out their pistols and slid them over to them. She picked them up quickly before she moved behind them. Using the butt on her rifle she his them in the back of the head knocking out each one.

She looked at Stephen and said "We should probably put on their uniforms. Then we can just pose as the regular guards up hear and not have to hide" she told him.
 
"You just wanna see them naked!" He laughed softly as he started to strip them him self putting on their cloths. "You should go to the attic and watch from there they will believe im german but the odds of a woman being in the german army? " He stared at her as he slipped on the uniform hiding his rifle and taking the german weapons.
 
Elise looked at him and chuckled and said "The only man I want to see naked is you" she said smirking as she climbed into the attic and began to keep watch from a small window up there.

The plan seemed to be going well, everyone was in position. Half and hour later the rumble of the trucks could be heard. This would be quite a large heist if it worked. There was something like 8-10 truck's coming. Slowly the trucks came to a stop and the drivers got out and showed the two men from Ezekiel's group posing as guard their papers. The two "guards" would turn away to "examine" the papers.

This was it now was their chance. From their vantage point it was pretty clear. Once by one the guards were taken out. It was imperative this was down quickly and quietly. If anyone of them notices, a firefight would ensue and more Germans would be on the way.

Elise watched as Adrien, Eliza, Annabelle and the other members of the group took out the drivers. Adrien gave the all clear, thinking they had got every single one. However, one straggler got out the back of the trucks and yawned as he did. He looked up and saw a group of people he had not expected to see, especially a man talking in french.

The German solider panicked and drew his pistol and fired a number of shots. In his frenzy his aim was off but three of the bullets would hit Adrien in the back. He cried out in pain and slumped over, falling onto Eliza trying to stay up.

Elise cursed and she quickly took out the offending solider with a shot to the head and bolted down the stairs, dragging Stephen with her.
 
Stephens rifle burst to life nearly the same moment Elise's did adding a bit of certainty to her shot. As he ran down the stairs he grabbed his bag of cloths and weapons and ran out to the truck. He was terrified his best friend here was shot 3 times he sprinted to him helping him into the back of one of the trucks. "Adrian you big lug you had to get yourself shot didn't you. " He did his best to keep him awake as Annabelle worked on him. " Get this truck to our building now!"
 
Elise helped Annabelle move him into the back of the closest truck and they began to drive away, the rest of the members taking over the other trucks. Annabelle looked at Adrien. Elise knew she was fighting the tears. Annabelle held his face in her hands. "Adrien, look at me! You have to try and stay awake! I'm going to save you" she vowed.

Adrien, even though he had just been shot three times he had the energy to snicker and said "You wouldn't let me die a quick death anyway" he said smirking at her.

Annabelle looked at him and said "Shut up! Stop talking, just rest!". She said trying to apply pressure to his wounds with Elise helping.

Elise said nothing....she once more looked very solemn.

The trucks were quickly driven away back to their building. Luckily they didn't run into anymore trouble.

Adrien was quickly whisked away to the hospital. They put him down on a bed and Annabelle quickly got to work, though looking a lot more stressed than she always did. She was all over the place. She quickly hooked him up to bloods and to a heart monitor.

"Don't you dare die on me!" she said to him. Adrien smirked, his face looking pale.

Annabelle cut away his clothes and looked at the wounds. She was relieved a little. The bullets were no where near his spine. If they had got him there, it could have meant he would be a paraplegic.

"I'm going to put you to sleep alright" she told him getting out a needle. She did not expect him to reply.

She injected him with the drug slowly. She watched him sleep before she began to remove the bullets slowly. She then stitched him up. The whole time she was sweating bullets, and looking back at the heart rate monitor every few seconds. Her hands shook a little as she worked.

Once she had finished his stitches she wiped the wounds clean and bandaged him. She then had him moved to a clean bed. Annabelle looked at him and breathed in deeply before walking out of the room.

Elise followed her and said "Annabelle...are you alright?"

Annabelle turned around. Her face had an angry expression.

"No! I am not!" she shouted in french.

She pointed to the door she had just walked out of and said "This is your fualt! You said you would be watching! You were just sitting in that building all safe while Adrien was getting shot! I hate you!" she shouted angrilly in french before walking away with tears in her eyes.

Elise stood their watching her. She agreed with her. It was true, everything she said. She never should have planned this mission. She watched as she turned away, her own tears forming in her eyes because of her guilt and shame.
 
Stephen did his best to help walking out hearing Annabelle yell knowing enough french now to make out what she said. "Elise go set with him he needs to be watched right now let me take care of her. " He jogged after Annabelle following her into her room. "Annabelle that was uncalled for it was my job to watch the trucks not hers. If you want to be mad at anyone be mad at me. I did not see him until he took the his second shot. " He spoke in the best french he could looking into Annabelle's eyes his hands reaching out resting on her shoulder. "Annabelle I need your help. I want to get you Adrian and Elise out of here. Back across the German lines into American territory. "

"I owe you my life and so do Elise and Adrian, I need your help convincing them to go to Britain with me. From there i want to take you all to America where you can be safe. Elise said she would not go till the end of the war but i am terrified of losing any of you. " The terror clearly showing in his voice and eyes he was terrified of losing any of them.
 
Elise looked at him as he told her to go and sit with Adrien. She nodded and she walked into the room and sat down on the couch and hugged her self. She looked at Adrien, Annabelle's words had cut through her heart. It was true, all of it. She looked down, trying to hold back her tears.

Annabelle violently took off her gloves and tossed them into the bin as Adrien came in. She looked at him as he spoke to her. She frowned and said "Don't lecture me!" she said angrilly. "Your telling me that if Elise was dying, you could not look for someone to blame!"

She pulled away when he touched her shoulder and turned her back to him. She sighed and said "There is no point....they won't go....they both are very patriotic, both had parents in wars....they won't leave their country behind" she said looking down.
 
"If i can convince Adrien will you come with us?" He looked into her eyes taking a deep breath his hand slipping into her eyes. "Annabelle i am not asking you to not blame someone. I did the same thing. I am asking you to blame the same person i did. Me. I was the one on look out tonight and when she was shot. Its my fault my plane was shot down. I am doing what i can to make this up to you all. I want you to come be safe with me. Please forgive me for not shooting sooner. "
 
Annabelle looked at him and said "If you can convince him...I'll go" she said. She turned back around and said "I forgive you...." she looked down and said "Tell Elise I'm sorry...."
 
"Come talk to her please she feels terrible she was only up there because i forced her to stay up there with me. She hates herself for getting him hurt. Please come talk to her if you don't want to stay there i understand but i need you to talk to her convince her it was not her fault. " He spoke softly backing to the door taking a deep breath his heart breaking for both women.
 
She shook her head. "I can't...I've never...I have never yelled at her like that before...I can't face her...please...just...give me some time..." she said looking down.
 
"Annabelle I am sure she understands. " He turned and left the door moving quickly back to the Elise. "Elise, Annabelle says she is sorry. She wants some alone time to clear her head. I think the 2 of you should talk tomorrow. " He spoke softly setting down next to her slipping his arm around her lower back. "This was not your fault it was mine... I was the one who was to be watching. "
 
Elise looked at him and shook her head and said "No...she was right...its my fault...it was my plan. We were lucky from the start. Could you imagine what could have happened if those two guards in the house hadn't slacked off?" She looked at him and says "I hate my self....anyone I get close to ends up hurt. My mother died trying to look after me...my last love died trying to protect me, Adrien got hurt, trying to do what I told him to do...I'm bad luck...". She looked down and began to slip the ring off her finger.

"...I can't marry you...you'll only get hurt and I can't bare to see it...". Tears welled up in his eyes and she put the ring in his hand.
