Author's Note: The next chapter is finally out! Yeah! With more action and drama than before, though it is short and I made a pretty cliffhanger! . muahaha!
Chapter Five: In the Enemies Grasp
He didn't acknowledge her or move. "S-srei?" He was able to mutter before falling onto her form, knocked out by something.
"Heero!" Relena shouted, pulling him off the girl checking for a pulse or what made him pass out. The other's bent down to help and found a tranquilizer protruding from near his shoulder.
"He said Srei, didn't he?" Quatre asked, his gaze now on the limp girl with soaking wet clothes.
"Yeah, he did" Everyone now had their gaze on the young woman
"Get him!" A soldier shouted, wearing all black, cloaking him with the darkness. He was the one who fired the tranquilizer, a special drug added to it that not even he could resist.
"What's going on?!" Relena shouted, bending down to draw Heero from the woman's grasp. Duo scooped up the other girl and Quatre grabbed Heero from Relena, holding him the best that he could even though he was extremely light.
"Run!" Trowa shouted through the thunder as Duo carrying Srei, Quatre and Relena carrying Heero rushed out the back door as Wufei and Trowa tried to discourage their pursuers.
"We won't let you escape!" A soldier shouted, hitting Trowa heavily on the cheek with a well-placed blow from his gun butt.
Trowa fell to the ground, recovering swiftly but too late as three men rushed by, and the screeching of a car on the street told him they pursued him by car also.
Wufei was getting hit all over by the men surrounding him, tying his best to take both the offensive and defensive fighting stance.
"Wufei!" Trowa shouted, signaling him that they should escape to help the others. Wufei nodded in the slightest bit and fell to the ground, landing a sweeping kick around in a circle, knocking the men to the floor in one fell swoop.
"Let's go!" Wufie shouted over the thunder rumbling in the sky as they dashed out into the rain.
The rain lashed at them, dragging Heero out from the drug-induced slumber. His eyes snapped open as he felt the sharp wind and rain cut and sweep over his body. The distance sounds of a speeding car told them they hadn't yet lost their enemies, trailing them not too far behind.
Heero got out of Relena and Quatre's gasp, springing back to Duo who was beginning to lag behind because of the extra weight he had to carry.
"Heero!" Relena shouted, going to rush back behind him. Heero reached Duo in no time, heard the sounds of the accelerating car and yanked Srei from Duo's grasp. Duo continued running at a faster pace, the extra weight and troublesome burden now gone.
Heero ran fast, his mind thinking of all things that could get them out of this situation without her or the others being hurt.
The car's headlights broke his thoughts like a hammer would to a mirror, shattering them and leaving some struck. "I'm sorry Srei!" He told her fiercely.
This was between him, her, and that damned family. Not him and his friends. "Turn right!" An alley was there and They turned right, them being ahead of him. They didn't have time to turn around when the car came chasing after them, gaining speed on them faster and faster, closer and closer.
The back door to the car opened and it came side to side with Heero, who ran more off to the side, nearly hitting the wall, his cheeks flushed from the strain all this had on him.
"Crap!" He hissed, looking for the slightest thing he could do. He sudden skidded to a halt; the car going forward still as the driver hit the brakes as fast as he was able.
A loud screech filled the air and by the time the car hit the reverse, Heero was already running out of the alley and hit a corner. This way, he could lead them away, away from his friends who didn't even have time to look back until five minutes after the car's sounds had stopped and only their panting filled the air.
The car came close to Hero as he once again stopped running, turning around, but the car's driver was prepare for his as it ran Heero down a different alley, cornering him and Srei onto a dead end.
He controlled his panting breathing. The car's headlights nearly blinded him, he didn't flinch or even show any fear. He wasn't afraid of death. He could let Srei die though, he wouldn't let her down.
"Well, it's so very good to see you, Heero." One of the families lackeys voice wafted to him from the open window. "Now, say goodbye!" He shouted, hitting the acceleration.
He was trapped, There was nothing he could do. The car continued coming rushing forward, hitting anything in its way, until it came crashing into the wall with amazing speed.
