xiv. fast and furious.

"Preaching to the choir, man."

   Danielle watched as Ellie and Jesse jumped out at the two soldiers, attacking and killing them before they could even lift a finger to retaliate. As the bodies hit the grass, Danielle moved up ahead and crouched down out of sight of an incoming soldier.

   "Hey, got anything?" Danielle remained ducked down, her grip on her knife tightening as the soldier got inched closer and closer, the gravel crumbling under his foot. "Mila?"

The male soldier rounded the corner just as the brunette hopped to her feet, her weapon poised and ready to swipe at the man.

   "Shit, it's the tres—" before he could utter another word of alert anyone of their existence, Danielle jammed her knife deep into his throat, her hand twisting the blade slightly before yanking it back out causing blood to spray everywhere.

   "Nice work." Ellie muttered to the brunette as she walked up beside her, wiping away the blood that covered the serrated blade of her knife onto her jeans. Her eyes never met Danielle's as she spoke nor did they meet afterwards as if the redhead was deliberately avoiding eye contact.

An appreciative smile pulled at the Linden girls lips. "You too."

   "I'll get the keys." Jesse called out of the two girls, the man rushing over to the corpse of one of the soldiers. His hands dug deep into the pockets before he proudly brandished a set of keys.
"I got them, let's go! Get in!"

   The three hopped into the vehicle, all of them tightly squeezed into the two seater truck. The engine rumbled weakly as it turned over again and again, the noise capturing the attention of WLF that had been canvassing the nearby area.

   "Jesse, get us the fuck out of here!" Ellie yelled out as she whipped out her pistol, shooting at the soldiers who were approaching the car at the speed of light.

   With only a few bullets left in her weapon, Danielle made ever shot count as she fired at the legs of the soldiers. The cries of men and women plummeting to the ground, clutching at their bleeding gunshot wounds filled the air as the truck still refused to start.

   The strangled yells of Jesse caused the girls heads to turn, their eyes falling upon a man who had his arms tightly wrapped around the raven-haired man's throat. With not a moment to lose, Danielle jumped into action, plunging her knife into the man's cheek and retracting just as the man cried out in pain, releasing his hold on Jesse.

   The engine finally roared itself to life allowing Jesse to swiftly change the gears before putting his foot on the gas pedal. The truck peeled of the neighbourhood road just as a huge armoured vehicle came crashing into the scene.

   It was a race for the ages as the huge vehicle continuously slammed into the side of the truck, causing all three of them to tumble around the car. Jesse was beginning to lose control of the wheel, the man unable to keep from colliding with nearby tree branches that hung low.

   "Ellie! Take out the driver!" The Liu man demanded of his friend, his hands gripped onto the rubber covered steering wheel, weaving the vehicle around the plethora of cars and trees to the best of his ability.

   With her gun now free of ammunition, Danielle grabbed Jesse's pistol that stuck out of a holster strapped to the side of his pants. It was heavier make than she was used to but with no time to dwell on it, she gripped the weapon with all the strength she could muster and began firing at the tires of the nearby cars that attempted to get in their way.
