Thinking about the gift made Sylvia's breathing steady as the feeling of her arm being tugged brought her back to the present. "Where are you, Syl?"
"I'm here now." She decided and noticed a grouping of men, they're aiming weapons across the gap between them so they walked faster at the sight.
"MOVE!" Ada and Sylvia pushed past the men, Sylvia's purse sat on her shoulder, her hand still stuck inside on the gun.
On Freddie Thorne's shoulder was a large machine gun, "What are you doing?!" He exclaimed as the two of them move to stand between the men. Tom's eyes met Sylvia's and she knew he' was pissed. She tried to throw him an apologetic look before hardening her gaze on Kimber's men. Sylvia remembered Billy Kimber from the races, when she joined Tom and Grace. He looked greasy then and still does now.
The sight of him made Sylvia want to punch him, for him to feel a fraction of the fear she felt when he took advantage of her. His nose looked crooked and Sylvette would be a liar if she said she didn't feel a tad bit smug upon seeing that.
"I believe you boys call this 'no man's land'." Ada's voice is clipped.
Sylvia looked at Ada with a grin, "Well, it's a good thing we aren't men." She gave Sylvia a smirk in return. All of the men look confused, not sure what to do. Karl stirred in the stroller and Freddie's eyes never strayed from Ada's. Sylvia can feel Tom's eyes on her, begging her to meet his gaze but she knew that if she did, Sylvia might have just stood down and let the men do their thing.
"Ada!" Freddie yelled before Ada cut him off.
She pushed Karl's stroller to a stop, "Shut up and listen!"
"Have you lost your mind?!" Both she and Ada snapped their eyes to Freddie's, worried is written all over his face as she pointed at him.
"I said, shut up!" Billy Kimber looked back at his men and Sylvia stared him down. Hoping to cause some unease and when he met her gaze she gave him a wicked smile. His jaw tightened as he realized who Syliva was, the woman who broke his nose when he tried to force himself upon herself. He visibly gulped. "Now, most of you were in France. So you all know what happens next."
