Foolish

As Max fell, she let out a scream.

"I got you." Alec said as he grabbed her hand.

She sighed in relief. Thank Manticore for Alec. She thought to herself as he pulled her up.

The room now flooded with guard's hell bent on killing them.

As Max made it securely, back up next to Alec.

"What do we do?" Max asked.

"Take them down, Maxie." Alec said, "This is a lot of money on the line."

"Fine," Max said, "I haven't had to joy of kicking ass in awhile."

They leapt to the ground.

"Stop!" The guards shouted.

Max took of into the air unleashing a combo of kicks and punches to random guards.

Alec headed over to the serum and pocketed it. As a guard ran to him, he ducked and landed an uppercut to his jaw. "Sorry,"

Max grabbed a bar connected to the ceiling and kicked one oncoming attacker as another approached she dropped down on him. "Sorry, didn't mean to drop in on you." She kicked him in the face as he reached for his gun.

"Got it!"

"Good." Max said as they headed for the hallway.

They ran pass doors checking to see if they were locked or unlocked.

"Here," Alec said to an empty room with a big window.

"Good," Max said as she opened the window as he locked the door. They climbed onto the ledge. "You see my bike?"

"Yeah," Alec pointed to it. "Over there."

"Good." She said examining her surroundings. A cable wire. "You got gloves?"

"Of course." Alec said.

"Grab hold of the wire and shimmy your ass down there." Max said as they leaped towards the wire and caught hold of it. Max pulled out a knife and sliced the wire and they swung towards the gate. "Let go!"

They did and they were up and over the gate and headed for her bike. Guards began to flow out of the entrance in twos.

They hopped on the bike and Max revved it up. They were out of the crossfire, which eluded behind them.

Sector four checkpoint

"You can let me off right here." Alec said.

"Cool," Max said.

"I'll bring your money tomorrow at work." Alec said.

"Ok," Max said.

Alec held up his fist and Max bumped hers with his. "Later, Partner"

Max smiled and rode up. "Jam pony messenger."

Logan's

The next day bright and early Logan was exercising.

"Hey," Max said.

"Hey, yourself." Logan said. "How are you?"

"Let's cut the chitchat and cut straight to it." Max said. "Do you have the address?"

Logan pulled it out and handed it to her. "Here."

"She took it and headed out.

Jam pony

"Hey, partner." Alec said taking a seat next to Max on the bench.

"Hey,"

"What you doing after work today?"

"I have to do something for Logan." Max said, "Some big time crook type thing."

"Oh," Alec said handing her an envelope filled with cash.

"Thanks," Max said, "So what are you doing with your share?"

"Getting a bike like yours." Alec said, "But cooler."

"Oh," Max said.

"And you?"

"I'm getting an import playstation 5 and selling it on the black market for more than its worth and then putting the rest in savings." Max said.

"Cool," Alec said, "I would really enjoy it if you came with me out again."

Max smiled, "It would be cool. But I only steal from bad guys and if I really need something. Not for sport or for the rush."

"But come on."

"No, Alec," Max said. "Did that guy really need that medicine?"

"Who the kingpin it was just some drug." Alec said.

Max hit him in the arm. "What?"

"What?"

"That's the mission Logan wants me to go on. To see if the kingpin really got that serum and thanks to us he does." Max said. "Do you even know what it was for?"

"No," Alec said.

"So he can become superhuman." Max said. "Now we have to kick his ass before he uses it."

Alec nodded, "But do you know how much power that guy holds o the street?"

"A lot," Max said.

"So if we do that that guys gonna put a hit out on us." Alec said.

"But if we don't he's going to be to strong to stop." Max said.

"Then lets stop him." Alec said.
