"All cleared"
The girls left their hotel room at that command.

1:25 am

They were dressed to appear to an average person a night girl. It was set that way.
A bum short and belly revealing tank-top was not unusually at this time of the night.

As a precaution they had shuffled all arms needed to about a kilometer away from the site.
They were not armed but they could defend themselves if the need arise. Plus beneath their sparse dress lies a skin thin bullet proof overall covering every inch of their body.
One sport car and two power bikes was all they had on them.

Claire rode the car while Denise and Susie rode the bikes. Sharon had gone ahead to make sure things go as planned.

They raced across the city of Lagos into the suburbs. By 1:55am they got to their destination. If things go as planned they would be out of here by 2:05.

"Ready" the nodded their reply.

Claire moved first as planned and went to the door area while the others spread out.
The plan was if someone saw and shot at her, she should go down as that will give the others time to disarm Diana and Teresa as they most likely would want to get a look of their invader.

Sharon climbed the wall to get a view of the inside. The small opening that served as a window revealed to her Rufi lying in an awkward position.

With no restrain?
She couldn't be dead. That was ruled out. They probably drugged her.
She looked around the room and saw Diana and Teresa arguing over something.

Sharon made a mistake of staying a second too long allowing Diana to see her and shoot simultaneously.

The bullet grazed her cheek. Sharon landed on the floor and took cover signaling to Denise and Susie to do the same.

"Claire?" she spoke into the communicator

"Yes"

"Move to the window, lay on your stomach, pour a bottle on your face, I was shot understood?"

"Understood"
In less than two seconds Sharon watched Claire get it done. She fling the now empty cow blood bottle away. A few seconds later Diana and Teresa came out.

"Who is she?" Diana asked

"Is she dead?" was Teresa's reply

"I'll disarm whoever checks me, handle the other"

"Ok"

Sharon had never killed, she prayed tonight was no exemption.

Teresa and Diana were still debating over who would check on Claire.

"Denise, Susie? Go get Rufi out of here, take the car, and call the police" Sharon spoke.

"Ok"

"Take her to the hospital, something is in her system"

With that the two girls stood and walked away under the cover of the bush and shadow noiselessly.

Diana decided to end the show.

Sharon changed position so she was only a few feet away from them.
"Get it on" Sharon spoke

Claire did not reply. No surprise
Diana turned her over just as she stood up fluid like and knee jacked her sending her gun flying. Sharon moved at the same time but fear sent Teresa running in the opposite direction.

Damn it!

She heard a groan form her mic.. Rufi.
Claire had been able to knock Diana out as well as chloroform her which meant she wasn't a threat for the next minute.

Sharon raced after Teresa who surprisingly had enough sense to run in a Brownian pattern making it possible for Sharon to shoot.

"We're in the car, why are you running?" Susie spoke

"I'm after Teresa, she escaped"

"Do you need help?

" can i get ?"

"Denise would join you, I'll take Rufi to the hospital."

"I'm north of the door"

"Meet you in a jiffy"

Sharon look stunned as Teresa mounted a bike and fled.

Almost immediately Denise arrived on a bike and Sharon climbed behind her. "That way"

With a bike it was easier to keep an eye on Teresa. How did Teresa learn to drive a bike this swiftly.

The siren sounded close by which meant the police were tracking them, they soon caught up with them, but Teresa is a good runner.

2:07am. Two minutes late

They were on the highway still on Teresa's chase. Never had anyone escaped Sharon, why now?
Lack of training had to be it.

Claire had also joined the chase which means Diana had been handed over.

2:35am

This wasn't going as planned.
They could not shoot.
Not for any other reason but because at the speed Teresa was going (260 km/h give or take a few) if they shoot she'll crash and definitely die.

They needed her alive to pay for her crime not dead. They could only hope she came to her sense and stop 'cus any other option would end with her dead.

3:00am

Sharon could bet that by now they'd left the city of Lagos behind. Possibly in Ogun state already.

3:10

3:45am

Then it happened

Teresa turned to look at the distance between her and the rest of the world. By the time she turned back it was too late to stop her bike as it launched into a canal.

"No!"

3:55am
