Montoya fell, seemingly in slow motion. I let go of Harley's hand and caught Montoya before she could hit the ground. Looking up, I made eye contact with a man in a black mask. Roman. Canary and Harley helped me pull Montoya to safety. Crossbow and Selena covered us. Montoy.
"Get down!" Canary shouted,
In front of us, more men, too many to fight off, stood waiting. I crouched down next to Harley and Montoya.
"You're ok. You're okay." Harley repeated to Montoya, "Just breathe. Just breathe. Let me check it."
Harley pulled open Montoya's shirt. Underneath was a red and black corset.
"Ohhh!" Harley exclaimed, "Aren't you glad you wore that? Sexy and bulletproof."
"Yours?" I glanced at Harley sideways. Obviously it was hers. No one else had that kind of style. I would love to see her in it, I thought to myself, And maybe help her take it off if I'm lucky.
Cassandra's voice pulled me out of my thoughts, "Harley!"
Harley and I looked up. A man was pulling Cass away.
"They got the kid. Shit." Harley stood up,
"We can't let them get her." Montoya handed Harley her gun, "I trust you."
"One bullet?" Harley said checking the gun, "Has anyone got any bullets?"
"Fuck I'm out." Canary said,
Harley looked at me, but I shook my head.
"I can't get out there, I just need to get through!" Harley was growing more desperate.
"Guys, there in the car, they're getting away!"
"Shit I'm out!" Crossbow said, out of arrows.
'Guys come on, they're closing in." Canary said,
"Canary, you know what you have to do!" Montoya shouted at her,
"Cover your ears." Canary commanded, then jabbed a finger at Harley, "You better get her back."
Canary ran out from behind the cave walls, letting out an ear splitting scream. Killer voice indeed. Harley nodded at me. I nodded back, and she ran, well, rolled forward. I ran towards the motorcycle.
"Where are you going?" Selena asked,
"After Harley." I shouted back. I grabbed my helmet and strapped it on.
"I'm coming with you." They followed me.
I rolled my eyes, but there was no time to argue. Crossbow followed us. Another motorcycle was parked next to mine, and she jumped on it.
"Nice ride." I said,
She grinned and put on her helmet. Selena jumped on behind me.
"What happened to your nose?" Selena asked as we rode,
"Some guy broke it." I explained,
"It doesn't look broken." They said,
I frowned in annoyance, "I think I've had my nose broken enough times to know what it feels like."
I lifted my hand to gingerly touch it, but there was no pain. I pressed a little harder, still nothing. I pulled my hand back. The blood was all dried by now. I felt all around my face, but there was no pain. My frown deepened. What the fuck? I swear it was broken.
"Something wrong?" Selena asked,
"It's probably nothing."
"You know I know when you're lying." They said,
I rolled my eyes, "Stop pretending to know me. We were kids when we worked together. We haven't seen each other in years. We're different people now."
"Are we?" They challenged,
"Well I would hope so, since you were a traitor. I would hope you're better now."
"Well, you're still a bitch with a grudge." They argued,
"This is seriously not the time." I growled,
"When is the time? When are we going to talk about this?"
"We're not going to talk about this. There's nothing here. After tonight, we don't need to see each other again."
"Wow." Selena said, "Just like that?"
"Just like that." I nodded,
"I loved you, you know." They said quietly.
I pursed my lips. I couldn't respond to that. I saw the car up ahead, and Harley's bright golden outfit close behind. A second car came out of nowhere, slamming into her. She crashed into the side of a van, landing on the ground in a heap. I sped up, coming to a screeching halt next her. Crossbow did the same thing.
"Need a ride?" I pulled off my helmet and smirked at her,
An evil smile grew on her face, "You can always take me for a ride."
The anger I felt towards Selena disappeared, replaced by the stupid little feelings Harlye gave me. I winked at her, and Crossbow tossed her a rope. She grabbed on, and we were off again. Harley held on tight, zipping along behind Crossbow. I rode a little ways back, in case she let go. Crossbow caught up with the car, pulling alongside it so that Harley could jump on.
I stared in admiration at my favorite crazy as she beat the shit out of the guys in the car. The car honked occasionally, as Harley slammed the driver's head into it. When she was done with them, she flipped over the windshield and onto the hood. I sped up, and she jumped off the car in front of me. She grabbed the handels and held on, riding in front of me now. She smiled at me devilishly.
Crossbow passed me, once again tossing Harley the rope. She caught it, and they sped ahead. I watched as Harley shouted something to Crossbow. I couldn't hear what she was saying over the wind. Suddenly, Crossbow let go of the rope. Harley shot forward while Crossbow came to such a fast stop she crashed, rolling across the pavement. I stopped suddenly, wanting to make sure she was ok. I pulled up next to her.
"You good?" I asked without getting off,
She looked up, "Fine." She grimaced, "Go."
I nodded again, and kept going. Ahead, Harley had reached Roman's car. She disappeared in front of the car. Worried that she would get run over, I sped up. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw her back flip onto the roof of the car. She disappeared into the car, kicking the driver acrobatically. Then, she was outside again, jumping out of the car just before it crashed into the gate of the founders pier. She ran after them, into the fog. I slammed on the breaks and followed her on foot.
Author's Note: *Internal screaming* I like to write a few chapters ahead, and guys I'm almost finished with the whole book I'm so excited. I can't wait for you all to read it. Also, if you can vote that would be awesome!
