The Assassin's Partner (Jacob Frye x Reader)

Chapter 13- Soul Eater

The flames grew as it roared from within, breaking and shattering the windows as the pieces collapsed on the cold cobblestones. You had no time to think. You ran towards your burning hell of a home but Evie grabs ahold of your arm to stop you.

"Have you gone mad? You'll die I'm there!" She yelled as she had worrisome glistening in her blue eyes. You look at Evie with your (E/C) eyes, sparkling with water.

"My father is in there, I just know it! I have to save him!" You let go of her grip and you run inside your home as you see all you're furniture bursting into flames.

"(Y/N)!" You turn to look up at your father who was on top of the flaming staircase that had collapsed as you back away, covering your face from the debris. He looked terrified as he clutched onto a little wooden box.

"My dear! I need you take this and leave!" He threw down the box as you catch it but you wanted to throw it so you can catch him.

"Father, you're going to have to jump!! Please!!" You had tears welling up in your eyes as you clutch onto the box. Out of the corner of your eye, you see 4 Blighters coming at you. You kicked one Blighter making him stumble towards the fire, flames got ahold of his jacket and in no time he was up in flames. The rest came at you and punched you towards the fallen burned wood as you fall, still clutching onto the little wooden box. You see the Blighters somehow reach your father as they knock him unconscious while they run out of the burning hell.

"(Y/N)!!" You turn around only to see a blurred person but without notice, a piece of wood falls on your leg, leaving you to yell and scream in pain as the plank burns your leg.

Jacob's P.O.V.

I decided to head to (Y/N)'s home to pay her Father a visit and ask him something really important which is best not to mention. I've never been this enthusiastic in all my life till this moment.

My happiness quickly faded when I smelled a foul smell of burning wood. I turned the corner to find her house on fire, flames emerging from her tiny home as I catch Evie trying to find a way to enter but the flames grew worse.

I ran towards my dear sister as I push her away from a flame that broke the remaining window sending broken glass to aim at my back. I end up knocking her down and we quickly get up as I try to get her attention.

"Evie, look at me! Where's (Y/N)?!"

"She's inside! I can't find a way to get in! Jacob, I believe she's trapped!" She coughed slightly due to the smoke and ash that she's breathing in. My heart sank to the thought she can be possibly dead by now. I felt my eyes well up in tears as I rampaged in through the burning door as I cover my face from the flames. I desperately look around and I finally see her but she keeps looking upstairs.

"(Y/N)!!" I yell as I finally catch her attention but as soon as she turns around, a piece of burning wood falls upon her leg.

"GAAAHHHH!!!" She yells from a distance as she begins to still clutch on her wooden box. My path towards hers is blocked with a line of flames. I feel a hand touch my shoulder and as I turn around to see Evie with her hopeful blue eyes.

"Throw me! I can reach her!"

"Are you mad? I don't want you to get hurt, Evie!"

"Jacob! We have very little time this is our only hope to save (Y/N)!" She yelled as she started to get into position. I grab ahold of her foot and I throw my sister as she jumps right over the fire and tumbles onto the broken floor as she reaches (Y/N).

I swear to God if something happens to both of them...

Your P.O.V.

You look around to see Evie tumble towards you as she try's to reach for you. The pain stung like hell as Evie got ahold of your arm.
