FATE'S FURY

CHAPTER 003

The peninsula hotel, Chicago, 7am.

   
       "Room service, can I come in sir?" A waitress standing out the door holding a glass of champagne on a tray said as she adjusted the top of her dress slenderly.

       " Come on in".A hoarse voice echoed from the room.

       The waitress entered and screamed in terror at the sight of what she saw but in the next instance a hand grabbed her neck from behind and choked her up. She fell flat on the floor and the tray she was holding fell making a loud chattering noise.

         " Goddamnit, you were supposed to get that, now we will have to do the usual. We don't have time, move the old body to a nice angle, we need to get out of here.

"Grab the case and let's leave".  A lanky guy in a black outfit said to his companion in the room.

          "We should jump out the back , thankfully they have a trash container." The lanky guy said as they rushed towards the back window on hearing thumping coming up the stairs.

                        

         "Ouch that hurt, you didn't say it was empty" The other said as she struggled to get out of the trash. "A little help here". She said stretching her hand to her partner who already got out of the trash.

           "My back hurts like cra…." She was yet to finish when a bullet landed right in front of her. "Holy shit…" she screamed.

            "There they are, get them and make sure they don't escape." A chubby man probably in his late fifties said to the hotel's security as he pointed at them from up the window. Immediately, bullets were fired at them which all landed either inside or outside the trash.

          " Dang it, that was really fast, let's get out of here, there are too many of them" The guy said as he grabbed the girl's hand and ran towards the main road on the other side of the street.

           " I've called the driver. He'll pick us up at the end of the road, we just need to get there unscathed and we'll be safe.

"He shouldn't hear you call him that you know?" He said giving off a short laugh.

           They ran as fast as their legs could carry them with scattered breaths. The end of the street was a three minutes run, they had barely reached half the road when she missed a step and fell.

          " Common Kathy, they are coming at us speedily, you need to get up now" Wilder said pulling her up real quick. She got up and they continued their run to the end of the street when suddenly a bullet hit Wilders left arm.

He stumbled while Kathy rushed to pull him up as he was panting heavily already on the ground. Just then a car screeched in front of them, It was the FBI's. One of the officers jumped out the back door and pointed his gun at them.

Kathy got really scared at this point and she could only hope for a miracle. She held onto wilder and then lifted up her head.

           "You are under…….." one of the officers who held out a gun was still speaking when a car from nowhere hit theirs.
         
Chase arrived in an Aston Martin DB5, colliding with the FBI's SUV. The latter hit the officer that came out the back and the others standing behind him really hard making them land heavily on the ground.

           "Common, let's get the hell outta here". Chase said, jumping out to help Wilder get into the car while Kathy grabbed the suitcase and got in .

Turning on the buzz to the loudest, they zoomed off amidst the firing from the other officers that just arrived at the scene, some of them panting like they'd just been chased by a group of mad dogs.
