A Trap is Sprung
The shots missed Jilly, their chosen target, but her spectacular backward somersault that took her out of range instead crashed her into a pile of crates and caused them to topple over and trap her below them. Abbey and Zoe had been luckier because they were back in the shadows when the trap was sprung. They were seen when they rushed forward at the first shot, but the shots were not for them, and they had some cover from the fallen crates, which meant the gunman would need to move to get a clear shot at them.
“Are you all right, Kitten?” Zoe asked as she crawled closer to her friend.
Jilly was having to use both her hands to take the weight off her body.
“No, I’m bloody not! Just get this f…ing crate off me so I can kill someone!”
Both girls were even more surprised
