"Get on" Max shouted to the transgenic whose face resembled an anteater.
The transgenic stumbled as a bullet whirled past narrowly missing his head.
"This is getting old 452" White shouted as he took up the pursuit and began running towards the bike, gun raised.
He wouldn't kill Max; not yet, he still needed her to find Ray.
The hunted transgenic dodged another bullet before taking up the empty space behind Max on her Ninja. The two speed away leaving White gasping for breath and fuming with rage.
"Aggghhhh" he screamed as he unloaded the barrel of his gun in the direction they had headed.
Click…. click…. click…Realising it was empty he threw it violently to the ground and stormed back to his car.
He would not forget this.

"You should have seen her, she was amazing," the transgenic who Max had saved earlier said to Joshua.
"That's my little fella" Joshua said proudly.
3 hours had passed since the rescue and the transgenic hadn't stopped talking about it since he had arrived at Terminal City.
"Joshua" Max called out as she spotted him and the anteater faced transgenic.
"Max, Ant here's been telling me all about how you rescued him today" Joshua said with a smile.
Max turned and smiled at the transgenic.
"Ah, it was nothing"
"Just be sure you lay lower in the future, White's not the type to just give up and next time I may not be able to help you"
The transgenic nodded before leaving to retell his tale once again to someone else.
Max watched him go before she spoke again.
"Listen Joshua, I need you to do me a favour" she said
"Anything for my little fella" he replied
"Keep an eye on him" she nodded in the direction of Ant now retelling his tale to Alec who's face wore a look of such concentrated boredom it could have burnt a hole through steel.
"I will" Joshua promised, he sensed Max had more to say
"Also, if you see Logan, tell him I went to the Space Needle and that I'll be back later ok"
