Chapter 5 – thrill of the chase

As max got to the gate , a convoy of 3 black jeeps rushed past .

White she though to her self , she sighed , then exploded out of the junkyard after them .

The jeeps had been going pretty fast and were almost out of sight , but they weren't faster than Max's bike . She would catch them soon but they were quite far ahead by now .

With the pickup

By now the jeeps weren't far behind the pickup , and by now 277 had raced ahead in his new car , a lot faster than a pickup .

" Looks like we've got company " 356 said whilst looking behind her .

" Oh great , what now " moaned 548 .

" Just keep driving " she ordered

" We can't get away from them in this junk " said 569 .

" We could try and slow them down though " said 356 as she leaned out the window , she fired twice breaking the front light of the jeep behind , she fired again smashing the windscreen . She fired 3 more times aiming at the tires ,and hit one on the last shot !

" Yeah take that ! " she howled !

The jeep screeched and skidded right , down the bank and it toppled onto its roof stopping after hitting a tree .

Back with max

Ouch , she though to her self with a smile on her face , but as she passed the over turned jeep , who did she see kicking the door open ? None other than Ames White . Now she was grinning for sure !

Back with the pickup

After knocking out 1 jeep , 356 reloaded the weapon , when the jeep behind opened fire , in the excitement she dropped the spare clip .

They ducked as bullets ripped through the glass and screamed as they richer shaded off the metal .

" Damn ! " Shouted 569 just before he lost control of the pickup .

The white pickup veered off the road and as 569 stepped on the brakes , the pickup slowed to a stop as it glided over the wet grass . The 5 of them quickly got out before the jeep slammed into the damaged pickup .

As the agents got out their jeeps with there guns drawn .

548 rushed towards one of them , punching him in the face , turns and kicks him to the floor , then whilst heading for a second takes 3 shots to the chest , he falls to the ground like a rock . At the same time 569 rushes at one of them , but gets skimmed by a bullet and then hit in the face by the butt of a rifle .

The others stand with the hands on their heads as the gunmen turn on them .

" Down on the ground , NOW , or your all dead ! " shouted one of them , angrily waving his gun .

They did so unwillingly , 356 stared at them with a look of pure evil .

Back with max

She sees the two black jeeps and the gunmen in a line with their guns at the ready , she sees her opportunity and skids turning the bike sideways and knocks the men flying as she slides into them .

The rest are quick to react and seize the guns and make sure the men aren't going anywhere . 569 goes to check 548

" Thanks again " said 683

" No problem , but you see why you need to lay low , otherwise you'll end up in a mess " said max as she looks over at the pickup whilst dismounting her bike .

She glances over at 356 , she is still holding the pistol ,

" That's a nice aim you've got there " Max said .

" Thanks " she replied

" Didn't catch your name "

" I'm 3,5 ... well I guess you can call me loz " she said , it was probably the first thing that popped into her head , but so what .

" Loz , I like it " max said whilst smiling

" You should all get proper names too , remember that "

" what about 548 ? " asked 569

They all looked at the lifeless body on the floor .

Max had a sad look on her face she felt guilty , like she wasn't fast enough , like it was her fault . . .

" Well .. you could take him with you and have him berried somewhere " said Max

" Yeah .. I guess that's the best thing for it " replied loz looking down at the ground .

The others remained silent ...
