The one thing Carmen didn't expect to happen was her being shot from behind. She normally would be able to hear their footsteps since she has pretty good hearing but the person was that able to sneak up on her. The pain had officially taken over her body. She started to gasp as sharp pain would infect her wound with every movement. Carmen's hand was pushed against her back waistline where the bullet had entered her skin. There was a lot of blood as her hand began to feel sticky real quick.
"That's not good," Carmen whispered and pushed herself up. She had to fight through the pain to get to safety. With every step she took, her teeth clenched. Her jaw was going to be sore from all the clenching but she didn't care.
Carmen had been undercover in a cartel house they were trying to bust but she had been discovered by one of the cartel members and they told the boss who ultimately started shooting at her. She was, however, faster and ran for cover before he could even pull the gun out.
Limping towards the exit where her brother, Alejandro, was, the shooting continued to be fired at her. All the bullets missing but one which peirced just right above the back of the knee. Carmen nearly fell to the ground as the force nearly knocked her down but she leaned her body up against a nearby wall. She yelled in pain and groaned as the pain had now taken over her entire leg.
Carmen was supposed to be good at her job and know exactly what to do. This mission, however, she had no weapons because the cartel didn't trust her. She had nothing to protect herself, not even a bullet proof vest. Carmen was stuck with nothing.
Alejandro and Rudy were waiting outside for her to exit while shooting enemies who came into their sight. Her limping body came into view and Rudy was the first to take off towards her. He picked Carmen up bridal style and ran towards the car, hearing Carmen's grunts of pain. Alejandro ran to the driver's side of the car and hopped inside to start it.
Rudy had opened the backseat door and shoved Carmen inside and getting in beside her, pushing his hands on the back of her knee, where she had been shot. "Are you shot anywhere else?" Rudy asked as he looked around for any more wounds. "Yeah, my waist."
The car suddenly in motion, Carmen hit the back of the seats and clenched her teeth as she had rolled onto her wound.
"Hurry the fuck up, Alejandro!" Her spanish accent was visible, and it made Rudy push even harder to stop the bleeding. He didn't want her in pain. Not anymore. He thought, she didn't deserve to be in pain.
"I'm going as fast as I can, Carmen." Alejandro responded by turning the corner at full speed. The two in the back were moving with the car, even if that meant that Carmen had accidentally kicked Rudy's side.
They didn't finish the mission they had started and Carmen doesn't think they would pick it up again, anytime soon. They would all consider it a failed mission.
The medic had fixed Carmen up and recommended that she get at least a couple days of rest but she didnt listen and was walking around a couple hours after the procedure had finished. Carmen was tough. She was also on pain medications to help keep the pain from being excruciating.
"What are you doing up? You're supposed to be resting right now." Alejandro stated as he went to help her sit down but she shoved his hand away.
"Keep your hands off. I'm fine. Let's go. We have another mission to start." Carmen was limping towards the exit of the medic tent and from what Rudy could see, her jaw was clenched. He knew she was in pain, even with the pain killers, but she wasn't going to admit that she was in pain. Especially to Rudy or Alejandro.
Alejandro glanced at Rudy with a concerned look before following after Carmen to the car, outside the medic tent. Rudy shortly joined the siblings in the car, taking the passenger seat. Carmen sat in the back to give herself more leg room.
"We are trying to find Hassan. He's carrying American missiles and SAS are trying to fingure out where they are heading. We have word that Hassan is in Mexico. We need him alive for introgation." Alejandro spoke as he watched through the rearview mirror to see Carmen applying her lip balm. Although she was in pain, she didn't like the thought of her lips being chapped. She most certainly had more important things than resting.
