~Chapter Seven~
           The Rescue Part Two

                          ~*~

We peered around the side of the door and watched the soldiers pass by. We crawled back to discuss our plan. I went back to Adrien who was still obviously struggling."You o-okay?" I stammered, great i thourght, even in the middle of a war I act like a total dork around him.

"Yeah I'm fine," he said, smiling for the first time.

"We need to get a vehicle." Myléne whispered, as we heard more soldiers walking through the streets.

"Two, first one to dump somewhere, second one a getaway car," Nathaniel added.

"So you've had practice with this?" Myléne asked suspiciously.

I was feeling a little bit anxious and grumpy at this point and the littlest of things snapped me. I hadn't slept in days,"so I'll get moms car, park it outside and ask the soldiers to look the other way shall we?" I said rudely. They all looked taken back,"sorry just, tired." I muttered, playing with the bits of broken tile.

"How about we get something quiet," Nathaniel suggested. Myléne began to list all the small things that we could use to carry Adrien in; golf carts, shopping trolleys, prams, pushes, wheelchairs. It got me thinking of an idea.

"Wait, what if we are looking at this the wrong way," I said.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, we were thinking of quiet sneaky little things right?" I said."What if we go to the other extreme? Rock up in something so indestructible it wouldn't matter who saw us."

Myléne looked at me confused,"such as..."

                            .:!:.

I drove noisily down the road to Adrien's house in a giant garbage truck. It was attracting the upmost attention so Myléne and Adrien needed to climb aboard fast. I lowered the giant shovel at the front and Adrien and Mylene ran up. I didn't know how strong Myléne was. With ease, she picked up Adrien and lowered him into the shovel.

She climbed up into the passengers seat. I looked up and saw approaching soldiers."Shit," I muttered and backed the truck up. The soldiers began to shoot. I kept backing up, trying to watch where I was going and watch the soldiers infront of me. I shoved the gun into Myléne's hands,"there, shoot back at them," I ordered.

"I can't!" She cried.

"Myléne this is no time to get religious!" I shouted. But I should've known she wouldn't do it. Not yet anyway. It was against what she believed in.

They kept shooting and it wasn't long before they broke the truck window. It shattered. I feel a stinging sensation coming from my forehead. I put a finger on my eyebrow and found blood covering it."Your bleeding!" Myléne exclaimed.

We came to a cross section and I turned and drove forward. The plan was to meet Nathaniel with a getaway car by the Catholic Church on the other side of the city."Are you sure Nathaniel knows where to go?" Myléne asked.

"Even Nathaniel would know how to find a bloody church!"

"Marinette..."

I looked over at the side mirrors and to my dismay, I could see two vehicles with machine guns attach to the bonnets chasing us down. They were small and fast. I push down on the pedal to go faster. They began to shoot. It was really loud and both Adrien and Myléne cupped there ears. Myléne began to prey as we swivelled around trying to block the others.

I heard a pop and a tyre blew out,"WE LOST A TYRE!" I shouted. I tightly turned a corner. The two vehicles missed the turn off and swivelled around. One got caught up in the loose electrical wire.

"I think we lost one!" Myléne shouted. We turn another corner to a familiar street."Were driving in circles!"

"IM DOING THE BEST I CAN!"

We turn again and I could see the vehicle we left behind caught up in wire. We were heading straight towards it and there was no slowing down. We collided with it, sending it crashing into a wall. It fell and exploded, leaving no survivors. My mouth gaped open. Since when did I become a homicidal maniac? I thought."You are dangerous," Myléne stated, almost in giggles.

"That's what my driving instructed told me!"

We kept trying to lose the last vehicle for the next five minutes but it was still going strong,"THEY'RE STILL CHASING US!"

"Try emptying the garbage!" Myléne suggested. I pulled the leaver that opened up the back. The vehicle dodged through the garbage but a car part fell out and right into the path of the vehicle and sent it flying. It crashed through a shop.

I grinned in satisfaction while Myléne looked worried,"do you think any of them got hurt?" She asked.

"Don't worry, God will understand."

                             .:!:.

We pulled up at the church and I got out and checked on Adrien. He looked really shaken from that car ride. I held the rifle and looked around. Nathaniel wasn't there."Where's Nathaniel. He was supposed to be here where is he?"

"Maybe, he got caught." Adrien said. About a second after he said that, a car rocked up. I aimed the rifle at the driver. He got out and to my relief, it was Nathaniel.

We walked up to us casually,"sorry I'm late. Forgot where the bloody church was."

                            .:!:.

We returned to the farm where Chloe, Alya and Nino were waiting. They stood in front of the once really nice house, now a pile of ash where only the chimney still stood.

"Come on, let's go to Hell."
