I think to myself before I turn back around and wait.
I see that after a block, one SUV veers off.
Then the second one in the opposite direction a block or so later.
One thing that J and the rest of these men are not ready for is the fact that they have no idea who I am, when I’m sober. They kept me fucked up so long that they’re not prepared for this Sadie… this Nightmare.
Carefully, so I don’t draw attention to myself I move my hand to reach into my front pocket. I can barely reach it and I’m sure that I have similar scraps to my wrists as Ro did the night that he has his flashback. Grabbing the bobby pin out of my pocket, I start sliding it halfway into the keyhole I bend it, at least bend it as much as possible that I can. Then I flip it over, slipping it all the way into the keyhole and bending it again. And I start to move it.
I can feel it when the tip catches onto the lock and I slow my movements down. Pressing it down, and the metal arm release.
Thank you, Oz.
Sliding the bobby pin into my back pocket I continue to sit behind the driver, and I wait. I have to wait until we’re driving. Until there’s a large stretch. Glancing through the windshield I see the light coming up. It has to be now though.
I move forward quickly, wrapping the handcuffs around his throat and pull tightly against the seat in front of me.
He chokes out before Kidney looks over, and shouts. “What the fuck!” I jerk his neck and I can actually hear a slight snap, but I’m not anticipating the wheel slightly turning, or the fact that his foot has not let off the peddle.
Kidney lifts up his gun, pointing it at me and still shouting words I’m not really sure what he’s saying, and the SUV continues to pick up speed.
There’s honking.
There’s metal crunching, everything slows down, and now I’m no longer concerned about Kidney pointing the gun at me.
Because now I’m only looking at asphalt through the window to my left and the sky to my right.
“Oh Fuck!” We both say in unison.
?
RO
I’m talking with Ash, Khan, and Fury as Axe and Blaze load up the drop when my phone rings.
Seeing Sadie’s name pop up on the screen I smile as I swipe on it to answer the call.
“Hey, Nightmare.” I laugh, into the phone.
But the only thing that I can hear is the cries of the boys.
“Hello?!” I shout into the phone when a couple of gasps come through. “Hello.”
“Ro…”
“Jag, what’s wrong?” I shout again and can feel Axe now staring at me, but Jag doesn’t answer he’s just crying still. I instantly see Axe on his phone, and I start again. “Jagger, what’s wrong?”
“I don’t know.” He finally whispers out.
“What do you mean you don’t know?”
“You’re name came up first.” He cries again. “Sadie told me to call you or my mommy and daddy.” Fuck! Whatever is happening cannot be good.
“Why, why did she tell you to call us? Where is she?”
“I don’t know.” He says again.
Axe steps over to me, I pull the phone from my ear and press it onto speaker. “What do you mean, you don’t know?” I ask but we can still only hear the boys crying.
