I head the ear splintering sound , splinters of wood flying through the air as the bullet embeds itself into the lid of the wooden crate.

We hit the floor in a heap of mess. landing against the concrete we tumble , a mess of limbs and blurs of colours we hit the ground. Slamming against the concrete groans of pain arise from both our mouths. Skidding across the asphalt we drift away from one another , Scratch marks coated the palms of my hands and the side of my face. It took a few seconds to gather my bearings , for me to feel the coldness of the cement against my brazen cheek till I finally let out a string of curse words, slowly sitting up.

Silence ticks between us as nightmare who also slowly sits up. Panting heavily eyes wide and hair messy I stare right back at him only to find him looking right back at me, shock coating his features I felt relieved to see him alive and breathing. Clearly it had just kicked in and registered with him what had nearly just happened. That bullet was perfectly aligned with his head had i not tackled him.

And lucky for us , I was quick enough.

Shuffling closer towards him I scan his body frantically checking for any sign of injury with my eyes , adrenalin still controlling my frantic movements I swallow unsteadily. 

"I'm okay." he grit

We had landed behind cover , safe behind crates I tried to focus on catching my breath.

A palpable pause flows between us , what I had just done set in. I had just jumped in-front of a bullet for him. The pure fear and anxiety I experienced was unarguable.

"That was fucking close fuck boss are you okay?!" One of his men buzzes through the ear piece , watching the whole scene from above ontop of the crane.

I glance at the lid of a crate I had subconsciously used as a shield, it had landed a meter or so away from us.

"I'm fine." he muttered back into the earpiece watching my every move wearily. "Finish him."

Seconds later , the sound of bullets violently stream through the air like hail. Hammering down onto the man who had almost killed nightmare. Peering over the crate I watch his body collapses to the ground in the middle of the car park face first. Clearly he was attempting to sneak up on us.

Grabbing the lid in my hands my attention turns back towards the bullet hole expecting to see a bullet embedded into the wood. Instead, all I could see was a hole where the bullet had entered and exited. I should've known this flimsy wood wouldn't stop a bullet.

Then where the fuck was it -

And that's when the pain began kicking in. Adrenaline wearing off the pain caught up with me fast and began to grow bigger. I moved my arm and groaned in agony.
Brilliant.

Nightmares eyes hardened as he grabbed me , dragging me closer to him he studies my arm , watching as the blood slowly flowed out from the wound.
Our eyes lock. He didn't look pleased.
"Why the fuck did you do that?!!" He blared angrily grabbing me by the injured arm. I wince.
His grip was tight as he held me by my shoulders "are you fucking insane?!" He hollered , eyes frantically scanning my face.

I remained silent. I wasn't sure why I had either, it wasn't like me at all. Hell, I was even shocked at myself.
