The Saviors
1376 Words
Some hours had passed, Mimi and Bee walked down to the parking, “are you riding the Harley today?” he asked.
“Do you want us to go with that noisy car of yours?” She asked mockingly.
“Maybe we should take route 111(means walking), because when it comes to noise, yours is no better than mine.” he complained causing a chuckle from her.
“Long story short, according to where we're going, the Harley is the best.” She said.
“Yeah... Yeah,”he said, giving up.
They walked towards the motorcycle, she took out two helmets and gave one to Bee, “Better tighten your ass Missy, the journey is going to be rough.”
Bee gave an angry sigh, “Uurgh, I told you for f**k sake that I hate that `Missy' name.”
“But your Mum likes it!” She chuckled joyfully riding through the exit area of the underground parking. “They still haven't made a move yet!”
“Not yet, I wonder what kind of transactions they are doing that needs so much time.” Bee said while checking his wrist watch. The speed from the Harley was too much that Bee felt like they were flying in the air. “Could you sl...” Before he could complete his sentence, they noticed some movements ahead.
“I think we are blocked by your pursuers.”Mimi said.
“How do you know?” Bee asked.
“I thought so, I guess they realized I fooled them at the bar, which means there are other people apart from them, but with different motives than theirs.” Mimi tried to analyze the situation.
“What kind of motives?” he was confused.
“Observation skills,” was her short response.With confusion still written all over Bee's face, he wanted to ask a few more questions but became quite because the motor came to a sudden halt.
Bee shouted, “couldn't you just hold on the brakes earlier!”
“Woman, you dared to trick me and then move around like you own the country,”Justin said grimacing.
“I wasn't moving around, I was riding Harley back to my humble home,”she answered casually,her expression as calm as ever.
“b***h, do you know what I can do to you and you friend?” Justin's voice grew even angrier.
“Do you think I always shiver because of dogs that bark and don't bite?” Her expression now turned to a wry one.
“Who are you calling a dog?” Justin was now pointing at them. “How about I have you two at my chamber and when I am done with you, then you will know what kind of dog I am.”
“What I mean is, I don't like dogs, I prefer a tiger, you know... It's more ferocious and it doesn't go around barking,”All this time Bee was quite.
Justin could no longer hold it he summoned his men to capture them, that's when Bee spoke, “are you sure?”
Justin became frustrated, how many times will he hear that question for just a night.“Sure about what!?”
“About sending dead people to capture us,” Mimi replied, “You know, my papa says it's not good to fight a battle you are sure to loose,”she continued, “Do you know why...?”
“Because fighting an injured person is loosing your dignity. The fight will not be fair even if you win.” Bee answered. Then there was a slight beep from his watch, “the target has made a move.” he whispered.
“For f**k sake, did they have to make a move now!?” She cursed under her breath, then she looked at Bee and noticed something, “you did not change into male clothes!?”
“Is that important right now?” Bee asked.
“Ooh right,”
“They are moving closer,” Bee said, observing the moving tracker in his watch, both of them seemed to have forgotten the men in front of them until Justin spoke again.
“Who said we are fighting?” Suddenly there were guns pointed at them, “it's either you walk with us willingly or I help you two walk.”
“Ooohh,they are still here,”Bee said, as if just remembering their presence.
“There are Saviors around.” Mimi said.
“How about I deal with them, and you deal with the other target.” Bee volunteered and just then a very loud laugh came from Mimi. Everyone was shocked, who dares to laugh like this when having a gun pointed at them?Even the two men who were watching from a far could not help it but wonder.
“That girl is crazy.” said Conor
“Very crazy.” Jake agreed staring at the woman who was a few distance away.
“But he is suitable for...” Conor's words were cut off by a gun shot. He quickly turned his head to see Bee dropping down holding his abdomen. Without thinking twice, he opened the car door and rushed forward, Jake picked two shot guns and threw one at him while they were walking. They were aiming at the right target with every shot they fired,until only Justin was left.
Conor shot twice at Justin, one on the knee and the other at the shoulder, it was a warning that Justin knew very well. Jake was stunned, Conor has never been that angry before,but Conor didn't seem to care, he ran towards Bee and picked him up, Jake turned around to look for Mimi but she was not there, just then they heard a few more gunshots towards the dark alley, “Take him to the car, I am coming.” Jake said,he started running towards the noises, he did not even realize the worried expression on his face.
A few minutes later, he walked out of the dark alley, carrying an injured Mimi in a bridal style manner. She was bleeding from her left shoulder, and her face had turned pale.
Conor was sitting at the back trying to stop Bee from bleeding, Jake carried Mimi to the passenger seat and buckled her seat belt then went to the driver's seat.
The next day, Bee opened his eyes just to get the smell of disinfectants, he hates that smell to the core. He wrinkled his face in disgust and tried to move.
“Where do you think you are going?” came a deep voice from God knows where.
“Who are you?” He asked, after locating where the voice was coming from.He stared at the man on the couch holding some documents in his hands, he wondered whether he seen this face before.The man was breathtakingly handsome.
“I am your savior.” he answered.
Bee rolled his eyes, only then did he remember Mimi talk about some saviors. He smacked his forehead only to feel pain at the wound, “ouch!”he grimaced painfully causing Conor to rush toward him.
“Why would you smack your forehead? Don't you know the wound is still fresh?” he said, not noticing his worried actions.
Bee looked at his concerned expressions and couldn't find any words to say.`How can a stranger be so worried about me?'He wondered.
“Your friend is in the next room.”
“What! How?” He asked.
“She was shot at the shoulder.”
“Which side?” Bee had completely forgotten about his injuries and was trying to stand up but was stopped by Conor.
“She is fine, she received stitches and she is still sleeping, I think it's the left arm.”
“What!? Aaaah!” Bee sat up quickly but then felt a sharp pain and tried to ignore it.` Mimi had just received a stab from the blade yesterday, before they went to the bar and now a gunshot!From the same side!ʼ He couldn't relax, if the people knew..
“Could you relax! You will open the wound!”
“What's your name sir?” Bee asked.
