Trust Fall (Deadweight series: Book 1)

Fatal

Phil snuck down and out to his house just outside of the main base. At the main base, Reena stayed on the top of the main tower; loading her shotgun and pistol.

Once they were both ready to fire, she looked over to Phil's sniper nest and waited for the first shot to pop off. A load bang erupted through the air as thunder and lightning followed immediately after. Rambo and his goons scrambled to get out of the way as Tequila drew his pistol from It's holster and shot, splitting the trio up.

Ronnie was off with one of Rambo's friends fighting Tequila. Rambo and his other friend stayed behind a tent. Reena had a clear shot on those two and didn't hesitate to drop his friend. Brain matter splattered on the car tent and Rambo looked up at her just as she went back down.

Not one to drop a fight, especially towards someone he saw as inferior, he moved around the tower and to the entrance. Reena heard him fumbling with the lock and with no where to go, she looked over the edge of the tower. Time was short and the fall could kill her if she didn't land right.

But, she had already been thrown off of the tower once. This time she could control her landing. She went to the other side of the tower as the door jarred and ran, vaulting over the edge and rolling sloppily on the ground. She scrambled to her feet quickly and hugged the car tent.

Ronnie ran around the side of the tower, not having seen her jump and she overheard him tell Rambo to get back to his friends body and grab his stuff. Thankfully, he didn't go around the way Ronnie went or Reena would've been noticed.

Instead, he went around the other way and Reena watched as he began peeling the gear off his friends body. At first, Reena wanted to shoot him, but instead, she grabbed a loose plank and slammed it into the side of his head.
