Nick started firing his gun.

“What happened?” Florence and Dan bent down for cover.

“You weren’t quick enough, we can make it out up top, the chopper should be there. Go!” He urged them.

Florence grabbed Dan and they started running towards the door that took them to the roof. Bullets ricocheted around them.

Nick followed them slowly shooting at Operative agents.

Florence and Dan got into the chopper.

“Do you know how to fly this thing?” Dan asked her.

She gave him a look.

“No, of course you can, why do I ask?” He continued.

“Strap yourself up we need to get this thing flying, Nick can jump in.” She ordered and they strapped themselves in. She passed him some ear protectors and put hers on.

Dan watched Florence flick a lot of switches in a complicated order. The rotor blades starting spinning above them. Florence took the chopper up.

Nick appeared after a few seconds and he managed to jump in.

Bullets went in their direction hitting parts of the helicopter. Nick grabbed the handle and directed them away from the building.

“Why did you try and fly it? You never passed your test!” He yelled.

“You never passed your test?” Dan replied.

“I can hover; hovering is what I’m best at!” She shouted at them both.

Nick flew them over the city and continued over some fields. Florence heard a rattling sound. She poked her head out the window.

“Nick we’re losing fuel.” She reported. At that moment the fuel gauge went down to the red zone. Red is bad.

“Oh great, where are we?” Dan enquired.

“Kent, I think.” Florence answered.

“I’m going to die in a helicopter crash, in Kent. Well it sounds cooler than what I thought it’d be. But Kent? It couldn’t be like in the middle of the sea?” Dan wondered.
