Chapter 8: The Smashing Conclusion
Things were not looking good for David and Todd. They were marched into the middle of the compound to face a man who would kill them by firing at them.
Meanwhile, Greg and Kate just watched.
"My revenge is almost complete," he said.
"Hey, Greg, I still have one more question," Todd yelled.
"What is it?"
"Where are you going to put the bomb?"
Greg just laughed at the question. "You really think this is a bomb?" he said as he pointed to the truck.
"Well, it isn't. This is for the money we are going to get for selling the RX-47 chemical. The buyer will be here any minute."
Todd after hearing the answer just turned back around the followed David to the firing squad spot.
Suddenly a large helicopter flew into the compound and landed in the middle of the lot.
Greg hurried over to the chopper.
"Juan, my friend, nice to see you," he said to the South American man who exited the chopper.
"Same to you, Gregory," Juan responded.
"Please follow me and we will make the deal."
Juan nodded and followed Greg, Kate, and the four armed guards into the nearest warehouse.
Juan carried a suitcase as he walked in.
After they had went inside, David and Todd were put in the firing squad area.
Just the man was getting ready to take aim at David, who was going to be killed first, something happened.
The loud speaker around the compound kicked on.
Music started to play.
Rumour spreadin
a-round in that texas town
bout that shack outside la grange
And

Todd and the other armed guard looked around puzzled.
David meanwhile just smiled and said, "I would get ready if I were you," to Todd.
Just let me know if

To that home out on the range.
They gotta lotta
nice girls.
All of the sudden as the sound of drums kicked in, a black 1968 Dodge Charger with silver flames smashed through the fence.
Have mercy.
A
haw, haw, haw, haw, a haw.
A haw, haw, haw.
The Charger spun around the compound kicking up a ton of dust. Meanwhile, Greg, Juan, Kate, and the others heard the car come crashing in. They all rushed outside.
"Get that car!" Greg shouted at the men.
The men tried to fire their weapons but they were jammed with dust. The Charger meanwhile using the dust cloud as a cover pulled up to David and Todd. David grabbed the passenger door and opened it.
Well, I hear its
fine if you got the time Have mercy.
And the ten to get yourself in.
A hmm,

And I hear its tight most evry night,
But now I might be

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm.

Behind the wheel of the car was none other than Jack.
"Come on, get in. I've got an idea," he yelled.
Todd and David got in and closed the door behind them.
Todd asked Jack as he pulled the car out of the compound if he knew Greg was the guy behind it. Jack only nodded his head in response.
As the Charger left the compound the armed men along with Greg, Kate, and Juan got into several vehicles to give chase: the suburban, a silver passenger van, and five four-door sedans.
Jack sped down the salt desert floor at over 100mph with the bad guys behind them.
Todd and David kept looking back. Jack quickly looked back. As he turned back around, he saw something odd.
A lone white semi-truck was coming toward them from the horizon.
Jack reached down and grab the CB radio he had put into the Charger.
"Breaker, Breaker, can you hear me driver? Who are you?" he said into the microphone hoping for a response.
"Roger, roger, Stuntman heard you could use some help," the voice responded.
A smile came across his face. "Charlie you SOB. What are you doing here?"
"I heard you needed help so I brought a surprise. Alright boys do it to him," Charlie said over the radio.
On cue, several 18-wheelers moved out from behind Charlie's truck.
Greg meanwhile saw the trucks too. "Oh, Shit! Turn around NOW!" he exclaimed.
The fleet of cars reversed direction and headed the other way as the trucks closed in.
Jack meanwhile spun the Charger around and took off after Greg truck.
The lead truck separated from group and took off away from the may lay.
Jack followed in pursuit.
The semis meanwhile just stated smashing up the henchmen's cars.
After five minutes, it was all over.
Jack meanwhile closed in on Greg.
He pulled the Charger alongside the truck.
"This is for my family you SOB!" he exclaimed as he spun the Charger into the truck.
The truck spun and rolled about 8 times landing on its roof.
Jack pulled the Charger over to the truck.
As soon as he stopped it, he jumped out and pulled Greg from the wreckage.
"Now, you're going to get what you deserve, but first," Jack reached over and hit Greg with a right hook.
"Now it's over."
Jack then stood up and watched as the NSC guys moved in.
