Brin slowly stepped out of the hummer, her moves purposely slow to delay
the inevitable (sp). I gave her a good shove to get her moving then stepped
out myself. We had wasted enough time waiting for Max to show herself and I
was tired of waiting. She stood next to her bike looking as though she has
seen a ghost, her eyes locked on Brin.
I smile and say, "Ah so I see You remember Brin. Let me intorduce myself, I am Yancy Cassidy, I am the one who is going to bring you back to Manticore. You are surrounded so I wouldn't try to escape or something might happen to Brin."
It didn't seem to scare her though, she only gave me a small smile and shook her head. "Where's Lydecker?" She asked tiping her head to one side.
I gritted my teeth and said trying to keep my patience, "He has messed up to many times so he is on a much needed vacation."
Damn her, she was puposely trying to get under my skin, I tightened my grip on my gun and took a step towards her.
"I'm only going to tell you once because I do not have much patience, give up or you will surely regret it." I said slowly.
Max only smiled at me and climbed back on her bike acting as though nothing was wrong. I quickly stole a glance at Brin, she was no trouble since we had reprogramed her, no she did what she was told. As soon as I turned back to Max I reliezed that I had just made a big mistake, Brin lunged at me knocking me off my feet. My gun fell out of my hand making a clanking sound on the road.
"let me go now!!" I commanded yelling curses all the while.
Brin only shook her head at me and turned to Max saying, "Go now before I change my mind."
Max nodded and rode off waving her thanks. When Brin finally let me up I yelled to the men to come out and grab her, demanding to know why they hadn't helped, but each said they had thought I had had it under control.
I turned to Brin who was now back to looking calm and docile like before and said, "You will pay dearly for this."
She only smiled and said, "It was worth it."
I cursed and headed back to the hummer, how was I going to expain this failure? "Damn them all!!" I shout as the hummer pulls away.
I smile and say, "Ah so I see You remember Brin. Let me intorduce myself, I am Yancy Cassidy, I am the one who is going to bring you back to Manticore. You are surrounded so I wouldn't try to escape or something might happen to Brin."
