Chapter 6
They drove through the windey roads roads that lead from Xaviers school to Manhatten. The purple Porsche GT2 speed through the hills and turns. Johnny sat in the passenger seat clinging on as they flew past other drivers.
'Where did you learn to drive like this?' he asked.
'My brother, Cyclops at Xaviers, myself.' she answered smiling as they flew around another corner.
'So this is your fastest car?'
'Probably! Its hard to tell. They are all pretty fast. This one and my AC Cobra are probably the fastest but the Porsche GT2 has better handling.'
'We could have taken my porsche.'
'Yeah, but then you would have driven and I wanted to drive, plus you don't know where we are going.'
'So, where exactly are we going?'
She slowed down as they neared more traffic. 'Its a bar in Manhatten. My brother has a weakness for gambling and he owes some money.'
'But you two are rich. Can't you just pay them their money.'
'He did that. But went back there and the people that he owed decided that they wanted interest. My brother said no and left. But now hes gone back. Well thats were I think he is anyway.'
'So these people are probably still wanting their interest.'
'Yeap, and my brother was stupid enough to go back there. He never thinks. Then again neither I do.'
'Well cant he run away I mean hes fast, really fast.'
'This aint the first time. So they probably have in hostage or some crazy shit. They know I will come for my brother. Thats proably why he took my motorcycle.'
'So what we are going to set their bar a light.'
'If needed be, yes.' They were near the bridge that crossed onto Manhatten Island.
'Theres a traffic jam.' said Johnny.
Charlie beeped the horn. She puts her head out the window. 'Come on! Whats the hold up?' she yelled.
'Construction.' answered other angry driver next to her.
'What? On the bridge?' she questioned.
'Yeah. Its been going on for the last few months. They are really taken their time. Only fixing it on less busy days.' replied the driver.
'Oh god!' said Johnny.
'What?' asked Charlie.
'They are fixing the bridge from our little insident?' he answered.
'Crap' replied Charlie. She turned to the driver next her again. 'How long do you think they will be?'
'Hard to say. The actual problem is in the middle of the bridge. So I am guessing quite a while.'
'Great. Thats just great' said Charlie. Her cell phone rang. 'Hello?'
'Hey Flame. Its Jack.'
'Are you alright?'
'Not exactly?'
'I seen that my bike was gone so I thought you were at Roofies. We are on our way there except we ran into a traffic jam.'
'Charlie... listen I am in a lot of trouble. They are threatening to kill me.'
'WHAT! why? What did you go and do.'
'He stills wants that interest and...'
'And what?'
'I made the mistake of sleeping with his sister.'
'Ohhhh Jack. Only you could get yourself into this.'
'Charlie I am really scared' he said, his voice shaky. 'They want their money in 2 hours or they are going to kill me.'
'Ummmm... Don't worry. We will be there shortly. Just hold on.'
'We?'
'Yeah me and Johnny'
'You and Johnny, aye?'
'You are like being held hostage and are questioning my romance life. Hang on okay bro?'
'Ok.'
Charlie hung up the phone. She was shaking. She wouldn't be able to cope if she lost her brother along with her parents.
'Was that Jack?' asked Johnny.
'Yeah' she answered. 'So...' she said with a grin still shaking though.
'What?'
'How fit are you?'
