Sucker



Rain pounded the corrugated metal roof, its song dulling her senses as she hid. The 360-degree barrier made by the barrel would only serve her so long. And then what? The end? She could no longer hear the thump, dragโ€ฆthump, drag

sound he made as he limped. He wonโ€™t need that kneecap where he is going anyway,

she thought.

Her legs ached from crouching; her heart, swimming in adrenaline, continued to pound. Stacked barrels to her right began to fall; the racket was horrible. She had to move now. She ran and found a service door ajar. See ya, sucker!




Barrel



โ€œAre you kidding me?โ€ she shrieked.

โ€œNo,โ€ he answered. โ€œYou have literally thirty seconds left. Where is it?โ€

The service door swung open and thudded dully against the cinder block wall. Limpy figured out where the door was.

โ€œGood. You grabbed her. She did a number on my leg.โ€

โ€œShut up, idiot!โ€ he moved the barrel from her head to the other guy and pulled the trigger.

โ€œI donโ€™t know what you want, but I donโ€™t have it!โ€ she sobbed.

โ€œI know you have it. I just donโ€™t know where. Tell me, right nowโ€ The barrel trained back on her.


Wrong



The rain fell harder. Everything swam. He cocked back the hammer.

โ€œOkay, okay! Itโ€™s in my purse!โ€ she screamed.

โ€œFind it, now.โ€ His voice was calm. She began rummaging and sifting.

โ€œHere it is,โ€ she said. She tipped her purse so the bullet would exit through its side. She pulled the trigger.

The man began to fall backwards, a look of disbelief on his cold, wet face. His body splashed in the rainwater, sprawled, and his piece skidded away across the pavement.

โ€œYou had the wrong girl, jerk.โ€ She then walked away from the bodies and heard sirens coming quickly.
