Chapter 2 - Mia - That's not your name

Mia POV:

I sat against the wall of the science block with Eve. She is my best friend and bodyguard. Her shoulder-length brown hair was in front of her face as she looked at her phone, checking to see if my Dad had given any new orders. We had our next lesson together, it would make it so much more bearable. "should we go?" she asked, "yep" I nodded. Just as we were about to go to class, the fire alarm went off. Fucking Hell! REALLY?!

Everyone ran to the back field and the teachers were shouting at them to walk instead, oh fuck off, if there's a fire I would prefer to run then get burned alive. I thought it was just a drill at first, as usual but the teachers all looked really confused. It was probably a student that set it off. Mohammed was my guess, but I couldn't see him anywhere. After all the registers were taken and handed in to the headteacher, they realised that Mohammed still wasn't here, this is when I no longer had to be the quiet girl.

Mohammed POV

I can't be arsed to go to class, its so boring, all the teacher ever does is shout at me. The only good part of school is Mia, she's so pretty, her long brown hair is so shiny, her eyes are such a bright blue and she looks really cute in her glasses. I think she finds me annoying though, I'm not sure why. I feel really nervous when I'm around her, she's so quiet but has this really strong and intimidating aura. I wasn't focused on what I was doing or where I was going until I heard the fire alarm. I started walking back through the corridor when a hand grabbed my mouth from behind me. I've never seen this this prick before but he obviously wasn't a student. He had greasy blonde hair, a broken nose and a burn scar covering the bottom right corner of his face. He had a knife against my neck, well shit.

Another man came running over, he had brownish hair but I couldn't see his face, he was wearing a mask. He spoke to the scar faced guy in a different language, I don't know what language it was. I was dragged outside by this guy and he didn't care if it hurt me or not, I yelped as the knife broke the skin on my neck. Everyone was outside in their form groups, I heard someone scream and it was fucking loud, I thought my ears would bleed. Everyone looked over towards me and this guy, that's when I saw just how many of these people there were. They all had some sort of weapon and were surrounding everyone as they all stared at me, completely distracted. Then scar face started shouting "Where is she?". No one knew what he was talking about and just stared at him confused. "I thought you would all know her, she's pretty easy to notice." he said loudly. Still no clue what the fuck he was on about. "Where's the daughter of the Irish mafia?!" he was screaming now. I think this guy is mentally unstable, daughter of the Irish mafia? There is no one that interesting in our school.

"Where is Aisling O'Brien!?" I don't think he could have been any louder. "IF YOU DONT SHOW YOURSELF I WILL SLIT THIS BRAT'S THROAT!" SHIT SHIT SHIT, I think he'll actually fucking do it. I held my breath as the knife was moved right up against my neck.
