A drop of sweat ran down her spine.

She kept running.

She came to the end of the row.

Coming out at a massive stone circle. Surrounded by damaged carriages.

She saw Daniel fighting with an assassin.

There were ten of them surrounding Daniel and Harrison.

Rage built inside her.

Alessandria screamed in rage.

Three assassins came to her.

She charged.

Swinging her sword wildly.

One assassin tried to block it.

The sheer force of Alessandria’s swing broke his hand.

She grabbed his throat. Her nails ripping into his flesh.

The other two assassins swung at her.

Alessandria released the assassin and dived out the way.

The assassin gasped in pain.

Nemesio ran behind Alessandria. Firing his pistol. Killing the two assassins.

Alessandria smashed her foot into the face of the gasping assassin.

Bones shattered.

His corpse thumped onto the stone floor.

Alessandria looked at Daniel and Harrison.

Four corpses laid dead at their feet.

There was one more assassin. She swung at Harrison.

Alessandria and Nemesio charged.

Daniel surged forward. Sinking his long nails into her flesh.

Her blood squirted out.

Harrison thrusted a sword into her chest. Killing her.

It was over.

Catching her breath, Alessandria ran over to Daniel and hugged him. He tensed but she didn’t care. He was safe and alive. Then she hugged Harrison and took a few steps back.
