The song is Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe by Kendrick Lamar. Also, stay till the end for a little surprise by me ;)

(Hopes POV)

Someone lightly shook me awake. I open my eyes and was met by pure darkness. I glance at the old alarm clock on the nightstand. 1:45 A.M it read in a dark red color. I looked around me and see Autumn and Holly still asleep on their bed. I slowly turn over and see a taller figure looking down at me.

"Get dressed and meet us outside in 3 minutes." Evan quietly said. I watch as he goes to the cracked door and quietly goes outside. Closing the door behind him. Todays the day... three days after our meeting, today's the day that Jordan, Seth, and their gang all die.

I softly groan and sit up in bed. I walk over to my bag and pull out some grey sweatpants. I pull those on since I just slept in my underwear. I put on a black bra and pull a white tank top on over it. I slip on my socks and my white hightops. I grab my phone last and quietly walk out of my shared room with Holly and Autumn. Waiting outside is Brian, Evan, and Tyler. Evan was leaning on the metal support of the motel while Tyler and Brian lean against Tyler's running car. (All of them wearing from the above picture!)

"Change of plans. We're leaving here early so go grab your bag and then get in the car. Us four are going back into the city to try and scope everything out. Del is going to lead everyone else to the fight." Evan says leaning away from the pole. I nod my head and turn back around, going back into the hotel room.

I quickly pack everything up and grab my bag, going back outside and into Tyler's car in the back seat with Brian.

"So what happened to us all leaving together and us going in last?" I ask as Tyler starts to drive out of the parking lot.

"I was able to look at the security cameras last night from the warehouse that was still running... they're still there from the attack, sleeping in our rooms that aren't destroyed. The sound is gone for all the cameras so I couldn't tell what was being said, during their meetings, but they're planning, really planning. I want to get a one up on them." Evan says while tapping away on his phone. I sigh and lean my head against the window.

From the rearview mirror, I see Tyler look at me, giving me a sad smile before actually beginning to smile.

"Hey Hope, it's gonna be a long car ride. The car has Bluetooth, how about you show us your playlist?" Tyler suggests. Brian looks over at me and smiles.

"Haven't heard Hope's famous playlist in a while, I feel like we could use some hype music," Brian says. I begin to smile and pull out my phone.

"Yeah, why not." Even Evan smiled as he pressed a button on the dashboard that made the radio go silent and the Bluetooth comes on. I go to my Bluetooth settings and connect to Tyler's car radio.

"I mean have you changed your playlist?" Brian asks. I go to my music before looking over and slightly smile at him.

"It may have. So what, you always liked my music. I just listen to different artists now, the same genre." I say while scrolling down my list before clicking on a song. Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe by Kendrick Lamar starts playing. Tyler starts cheering as he turns the radio up.

"Now THIS is what I'm talking about!" Tyler says. I start to smile and start swaying my head to the music. Brian begins to chuckle as he looks over at me.

"Good to see you still like some of my artist's shortcake." He smiles and looks out his window. In the side mirror, I can see Evan nodding along to the song.

We listened to a few more songs on my list before I decided I wanna hear some of Evan's playlist, not expecting anything of it until he started playing some of it. The first song I have only heard while in Evan's club. I know it's Future but I never listen to him to know what song it was.

"Ew, do you have anything other than Future on your playlist?" Tyler says looking over at Evan. Evan gives him a dirty look before pressing the skip button, going to the next song.

"I don't mind Future." I shrug. Brian nods his head in agreement.

"He's just doesn't like our music that's all. He stays in the past and listens to music from our teenage years." Brian rolls his eyes and nudges Tyler on the shoulder. "We're talking about JAY-Z and Snoop Dog days, he's like an old man." Brian sits back in his seat and chuckles.

I was able to take a nap for the rest of the drive when I woke up we were at the ports, close to our destroyed warehouse. I look over and see Brian waking up as well as looking around to see where we were. Evan looks back at us and gives us a smile.

"I don't know which one of you was snoring, but there were moments where I thought one of you died in your sleep," Evan says looking back and forth between us. I turn my head to Brian, already knowing who was snoring like that.

"Yeah, I wonder who Brian. Do you have any idea who that can be?" I roll my eyes as he gives both Evan and me an annoyed look.

"That's how you know when you're having a good-ass nap." He unbuckles and gets out of the car, I do the same. Tyler and Evan also get out of the car and head towards the trunk.

"Armor and guns just in case can never be too cautious." A couple of guns, as well as armor and our mask, were waiting to be picked up.

"We're going to the roof of that abandoned warehouse and watch our warehouse from it." Tyler points to the building to our left.

I look up to the roof, maybe 4 stories at max. I grab an armor plate, and a Carbine Rifle. I also grab my AP pistol and stuff it in my waistband. Once everyone was all set we walked toward the building, Evan and Tyler in front, Brian walking next to me.

"So are you going to explain that night back at the old clubhouse?" I quietly ask him, not bothering to look over at him.

"I just... I don't know. You deserve a better life than this Hope, not fighting for your life from a psycho stalker. I guess I just... care still... I still care about you, deeply." From the corner of my eye, I see him turn and look at me. Luckily Evan and Tyler were too far ahead to hear.

"Does it make you feel a little bit better that I'm in a gang with you at least rather than some random people?" I look over at him and give a slight smile. A smile comes to his face as he nods his head.

"It really does, but I still worry you know." I sigh and look ahead of me as we go into the building.

We make our way to the roof before setting up camp to where we have a perfect view of the warehouse. Evan tosses Brian the sniper he was carrying and then kneels near the ledge. Brian lays down and looks down the sight. I sit near Brian, making sure to be out of view. Tyler sits down a couple of feet from me while Evan also lays down and pulls out binoculars.

"How long are we sitting here till?" I ask in no general direction, just wanting an answer. Brian looks over at the watch on his wrist.

"Holly and Del are waking everyone up at 10 A.M, they're going to get another briefing about the slight change of plans and then they get here around 6 in the afternoon." Brian goes back to looking down the scope. I look over at the horizon, the sun was just now rising.

"Well if you guys don't mind, I'm going to try and go back to bed. I can trust you guys to make sure nothing will happen to me, right?" I ask, looking between the three of them.

"I'll make sure you don't fucking snore again how about that?" Tyler says while giving me a smirk. I roll my eyes and lay down.

"Hey if you get cold wearing only a thin white tank top I don't wanna hear it." I feel him slightly tap on me with his shoe. I watch as both Evan and Brian look over at me.

"Yeah, why the sudden wardrobe change? Usually it's.... less ghetto than this." Brian says.

"Currently all of my clothes are in that warehouse over there but they're probably being sniffed by Jordan, so I don't wanna hear about how I look." I tightly shut my eyes trying to ignore them.

"I don't think that's the only thing Jordan's doing with her clothes." Evan scoffs. "I don't doubt it coming from Jordan." Evan sighs before moving a little bit. I turn on my other side and open my eyes in disgust. Tyler looks down at me as he takes off his flannel and covers me with it before leaning against the wall.

It took me a while but I fell into a light sleep while the sun slowly rose. I woke up a couple of times but was able to fall back asleep until finally I woke up for good when it started getting really hot out. I look over to where Tyler was sitting only not to see him there. I sit up to look over at Brian and Evan, Tyler was now at the sniper while Evan and Brian sat next to each other quietly talking.

"Hey relax, we're right here. Del called me a few hours ago telling me how much Autumn and Holly are arguing with him about how you left. Tyler saw some cars going to and from the warehouse, we think it's guns and shit. Other than that Shortcake, you didn't miss anything important." Brian says. I nod my head and look toward the warehouse.

"What time is it? I feel like I've been out forever." I fix the hair that was in my face.

"A little bit passed after noon. I went and got us food, here." Brian reaches to his side and throws me a bag of taco bomb.

"God I can't wait to have home-cooked meals again. I feel like I'm gaining weight from all of the fast-food we've been eating here lately." I open the bag and see my favorite, of course Brian remembered what I liked, he used to tease me for getting it all the time.

"Believe me, when this is over, we're going to have the biggest fucking party ever. Best food there is, we deserve it, all of us." Evan says smiling, Brian smiles, agreeing with him.

"Evan you might wanna see this," Tyler says. Evan jumps up and goes to Tyler's side, kneeling down and pulling out the binoculars. I sit back, not wanting to be seen.

"What's happening you two?" Brian asks while getting his gun ready.

"I have a clear shot on the both of them, Evan, just say the word," Tyler says, clicking the safety off.

"No, just watch them. If you shoot now, they'll know where we are and be surrounded." Evan's voice changed from relaxed to anxious. I peek my head around the corner and try to see who they were looking at.

In the distance, I saw Jordan walking outside with Seth. Jordan having an assault rifle strapped to his back while Seth carried a smaller gun. I couldn't tell what gun from how far away they were.

"What in the hell are they doing?" Tyler asks shaking his head. I felt an instant panic run through me.

"What if they found us, Evan what if they-" Evan harshly gave me a hush. I closed my mouth as they walked toward a car. I ducked down and tried to calm myself down. Tyler and Evan duck down as they gave each other a panicked look. Before Evan scrambles to get up.

"We have to go, we're going back to my apartment, Jordan and I locked eyes" Evan quickly says as he grabs his gun, taking the safety off. Tyler grabs his flannel and gets up as well. I grab my things as quickly as I could while Brian quickly got up and picked me up onto my feet.

"Don't leave us you got that." Brian looks me in my eyes as he starts running toward the stairs, I run and catch up to him.

"Maybe he was looking in our direction and didn't see us," Tyler yells while practically jumping down the next flight of stairs.

"Not risking it, we're leaving," Evan says doing the same.

We make it to the main floor and start jogging toward the open garage door. The car is in the alley, even if Jordan saw us they'll most likely see us running toward Tyler's car. We stop at the open garage door as Evan leans around the corner, pointing his gun toward the warehouse.

"I don't see them, they might've ran inside," he lowers his gun and looks between us, "we're going to make a break for the car, have your guns drawn and ready to shoot." He tensely looks around the corner and nods his head.

He starts running toward the car as we follow him. As the sun hits my face again I point my gun in the general direction where I saw them last before turning my full attention to the car. I felt my lungs start to tighten as they start gasping for air. I was about to make it to the corner where the car was when I felt a sharp pain hit my upper thigh. I wince in pain as it caught me off guard and I trip over my two feet. Before I even had time to look to see what hit me I was scooped up by Tyler as he threw me over his shoulder.

"You're good, you're good Hope." He says as he turns the corner.

Evan was already getting into the driver's seat, as Brian was about ready to get in the passengers. Tyler opens the door and almost tosses me into the seat as he hops in and slams the door shut. I grab onto my thigh as tears fill my eyes, the pain was getting worse.

"Let me see." He says, I look down at my thigh with him as a hole bigger than a bullet starts bleeding.

"Evan she's shot." I bring my hand to my mouth and bite my thumb. A bullet doesn't hurt like this, this isn't a bullet.

"Tyler get it out of me. TYLER GET IT OUT!" I start crying louder and grip onto my thigh as tight as I can.

"Shh, you're alright Hope. Brian in the glovebox there's a switchblade and a small bottle of tequila. Get it out and pour the tequila over the open blade." Tyler says while starting to slide my sweatpants down to where the hole is at.

"Here." Brian was now turned in his seat while he watched what was about to happen.

"TYLER GET IT-" The pain became so overwhelming I passed out.
