Zipping the road
headlights clearing the dark zone
Mary moved
so did my eyes
I was loosing blood
and saw those three headlights
right behind.
They were chasing
in three fast vehicles.
I said aye
and killed the accelerator.
One was in my line of sight
and two trying my sides.
Car was on forest road
I had my gun out on full load
I was trained for low light kills
and this was where
now I needed my skills.
With a painful and bleeding
shoulder blade
and one hand on wheel
I came a turn
to enter a deal.
Three shots from the mouser
on one side assailant
the bullet landed true
right on the right tyre
the target car cartwheeled
and turtled in mire.
Two shots broke my back mirrors
where Mary lay oblivious of bullets,
throwing open on me
a line of direct attack.
They had reformed
now both vehicles rode abreast
right behind.
Closing in on me.
I was riding at 100
they were coasting
about 120.
I slowed down to 90
getting them near.
60,50,40,30,20 and 10 feet
I turned back
took an aim
for the driver on right
where it might be his head.
Through the back mirror break
my aim scene was broad
with car lights
helping as well as
obstructing along.
My eyes shifted
back to wheels
with hand stiff in aim
at the back
I fired
and heard the scream
breaking the windshield
bullet landed
in the chest
guy screamed dead.
I drove on
a shower of bullets
