AN: Found this on my flashdrive today and decided to post it. Sorry it's so short.
Marco turned his head slowly and saw Allie standing there, mouth open in shock. But before he could do (or say) anything -before he could even think about trying to explain- somebody screamed and glass from the windows suddenly sprayed everywhere.
Mr. Pennington put his arms around his wife and shielded her protectively. Which was kind of funny, given the fact that his own shriek of horror was a lot louder than Mrs. Pennington's...
Two Erasers stood, one behind Allie and one in front of her, ready to move in for the kill (or capture? There really was no telling with them).
Plates, china and plastic, flew through the air.
Allie did a roundhouse kick and hit one of the Erasers in the chest. The other one came at her. She got away by sliding down on the sticky floor and scooting between his legs.
He tried to grab her, but wasn't quick enough.
The Eraser she'd kicked got his second wind and came at her again.
Allie staggered back up onto her feet and grabbed the door. The brass bells smashed together as she thrust the door open and slammed it as hard as she could into the Eraser's hairy face.
AN: Reviews not expected for such a short chapter, but always welcome.
