Morris drove the path from Penn Hills to the grocery store to her house, the way Jill described. He spotted an overturned police vehicle, the officer was shot dead, and not far away he saw Kendall's car.

"No!" he dreaded, got out and rushed to inspect.

No bodies. He sighed with relief and lighted a cigarette, Kendall was taken out of her vehicle, not sure where, but at least she is alive.

He studied the positions of the two cars, then the tire tracks, the bullet holes and shells. He picked one up and sniffed under his nose.

Ceska, Czech brand.

He stood up and looked down both ends of the overpass, deciding which way he should resume his search, then he saw a set of headlights coming from a distance.

"They're not here." she said, as if knowing who he was looking for.

"Who are not here?" Morris asked, his hand still at his holster.

"I can take you to them."

"Who are you?"

The woman walked into the headlights, revealing her long dark hair and pale face. She dressed in a skin-tight outfit of motorcycle leather, nothing but black.
