Tyler growled, glancing up at the raining heavens. "Great, just fucking
great. Nothing good ever happens when I wear a dress." She muttered,
kicking a pole that just happened to get in her way. Only a block from the
hotel, she was already soaked to the skin. The black dress clung to her,
while long tresses sent cascades of water flying whenever Tai moved her
head.
She now stood at an intersection, waiting to cross the street. The rain seemed to pelt down harder as the light changed from red to green. "Finally." Was muttered, as the slender framed female stepped into the road. Too late did she hear the screeching of tires, and the wailing of police sirens.
'Oh shit.' Was the only thing that went through her mind as the car swerved wildly. Tyler sprang back onto the curb, but the out-of-control car spun crazily on the slick pavement. It rushed toward her, careening past police cruisers in desperation. The little sports car's headlights blinded Tyler, so that she couldn't see which way to run.
The only thing Tyler saw before the car slammed into her was the driver' eyes; Cold and ruthless.
~oOo~
Adam exited the restaurant, completely dejected. Dragging his feet, hands shoved deep into his pockets, he barely heard the wail of sirens in the distance. There was a scream, the screech of tires and the sounds of metal bending. This made him look up, as a fleet of police cruisers skidded to a halt in the middle of the next intersection.
People screamed, a woman ran past, saying that someone had been hit. The only thought that Adam had was of Tyler. He raced towards the accident scene, pushing his way through the crowd.
The driver of the new Mercedes was in cuffs, barely a scratch on him. The car was totaled, having collided with a pole sideways, its frame bent around so that the once sleek vehicle was warped into scrap metal.
But the worse thing of all was the woman pinned between the car and pole. "Tyler!" Adam cried, pushing past police and bystanders. Tyler didn't move, as Adam jumped across the hood of the Mercedes.
"Sir, you're going to have to move away from the vehicle." A female officer approached Adam, pulling him away from the wreck. "What happened? Tell me what happened to her!" he yelled, hysterical. The woman was calm, leading Adam away from the unconscious Tai.
"We have the driver in custody. Please sir, calm down. We'll have to use the Jaws of Life to get her out, and an ambulance is on the way. Now if you would jus-"
"Is that the guy?" Adam jerked his head towards the cuffed man. The woman nodded, about to continue with her speech as Adam shoved an officer out of the way. Grabbing the guy by the hair, Adam slammed a clenched fist into the man's jaw.
Bone cracked, and Adam continued to beat the man, pushing officers and the newly arrived firefighters away. Rae screamed, having just happened upon the scene. Jeff ran to Adam, but the Canadian pushed his friend away, blinded by anger.
Finally, five officers pinned the irate Adam against a squad car, forced to handcuff him as well. Rae sobbed, as emergency personnel ran this way and that, and the Jaws of Life was taken to Tyler.
