Chapter 1 - The Robbery

It’s been one peaceful day in New York, or at least it started peacefully. Everyone was walking, minding their own business. Whereas all of a sudden an alarm went off in the local gun shop and gunfire was heard inside. Everyone around the shop panicked. It was a big shock to everyone and from there suddenly 3 spooky men ran out. All wore black masks and each one was armed and carried bags with more guns in them. They got into their car very quickly and drove off without hesitation. However several cops reacted quickly enough from the police station not too far away and headed for the location where robbers were last seen. The two police cars full of cops got onto the robbers’ tail very fast.
- “The targets are in front of us, chief.” Kenny said into his radio while his friend Jake was driving, “there’s 3 of them and all are armed and extremely dangerous.”
- “All right, you have my orders to shoot to kill.” Chief’s answer came from the radio.
- “I don’t like this.” Jake said.
- “No-one does, but we have to deal with it.” Kenny told him.
One of the robbers suddenly peeked out of their car and opened fire from a submachine gun.
- “Watch the gunfire!” Kenny warned Jake.
Jake’s driving sort of went out of control when he saw and heard bullets hitting their car, but he regained the control of the car fast enough. The other police car went ahead of this one and was closer to the robbers. The robbers then began shooting at that one. Another robber peeked out of their car now and shot at the police car from a shotgun, getting one of front wheels and causing the car tumble over along the road.
- “Woah!” Jake didn’t see that coming and quickly evaded the tumbling police car with his one.
- “We must not lose them.” Kenny said nervously.
In a meantime the robbers were cheering to have destroyed one of the two police cars. They both got back in the car and closed the windows.
- “Boom they go!” one of the robbers said happily.
- “Brilliant shooting there, Leash.” Another robber said.
- “Hey, you’re the one who got them, Thorn.” Leash replied.
- “Guys, there’s no time to celebrate. We still have more losers on our tail.” The last robber who was driving said with annoyance.
- “Come on Wolf, don’t be so uptight all the time. Have some fun while you’re doing your job.” Leash said to him.
- “Don’t tell me what to do. I’m the brain here, remember.” Wolf said angrily.
- “All right, as you say.” Leash said.
Kenny and Jake still didn’t give up the chase and didn’t let robbers out of their sight. The robber car headed for a bridge and in there the speeds were greater, plus with all their shooting it was more dangerous. Jake still drove confidently, but with fear. Kenny was trying to see the number plate on the robbers’ car, but couldn’t quite read it as it was painted over slightly and the car was quite far away. He was getting a bit fed up now, not with the chase, but with all the people like these in the world. He couldn’t understand their motives.
At this very second as if by a hit of lightning a beautiful girl wearing white clothes appeared in the middle of the road behind the robbers’ car. She stretched out one of her arms and shouted:
- “Stop!!!”
- “Jake, stop the car!” Kenny told him anxiously.
- “Why? We can’t lose the robbers!” Jake also panicked.
Kenny couldn’t take it and so reached out for a hand brake and pulled it sharply. The car began to go out of control due to such sharp breaking and literally smacked right into the girl. The girl flew over the car. The look on Kenny’s face was terrifying. He momentarily ran out of the car to check on the girl, but she wasn’t there. He couldn’t understand it. The robbers’ car went out of sight by now and they have escaped.
- “Kenny, what are you doing?” Jake came out of the car also.
- “Did we kill her?” Kenny asked while barely breathing.
- “Who?”
- “That girl in white.”
- “What? There was no-one there.” Jake couldn’t understand Kenny.
- “I saw her with my own eyes. I am not going crazy.” Kenny gotten angry.
- “This is just great.” Jake said sarcastically and full of annoyance, “Now we lost them. What will chief say?”
- “I don’t know.” Kenny sighed.
