Kill Fest

"The shit's going to hit the big old fan just as soon as one of us pulls the first trigger you know," Aurora said as she stood along a wall trying to stay out of the way of people walking by.

"Shit hitting the fan is only going to be the least of it."

"Stryker what do you mean?"

"Think about it, not only when the bullets fly, this place is going to go insane with people running madly but think, the cops are going to be running amok in here too.

"Oh my God, you're right; this place is going to be crawling with cops. And I don't like cops!"

"Yeah, I remember that time in Atlanta?"

"Oh shit yeah, remember that!" she said with a naughty little giggle. "We were in that little hole in the wall bar when that drunk guy wanted to start a fight with you."

"Yes, I just wanted to let him talk his talk and be done with him."

"Yeah but I didn't see it that way, did I?"

"No, you wanted to kick his ass and as I remember it, you did just that."

"Yeah…..he was so easy to put down too."

"Yeah but then the cops came in and you were still not done."

"Well like I said, I don't like cops," she said again with a dirty giggle.

"I saw that when you beat the hell out of all five of them as they walked into the place," Stryker spoke in a stern voice as she stood and grinned.

"Come on man, what else would you expect from me, kiss them hello?"

"I guess not."

"You're lucky I didn't shoot them all," she said tilting her head back resting it on the wall and smiling.

"Same old Aurora," he said shaking his head."

"Yeah and you love me for it too," she told him folding her arms and kicking one leg up on the wall supporting her on only one foot.

"Yeah well, right now I'm glad you're the bad ass chick that you are. If we have any chance on getting out of here, it's together."

"Oh, you know how to make a girl feel wanted," she said just as they heard a commotion happening across the tracks on another platform. "Well sounds like the fan has just been hit!" she added as she and her companion watched people running from an unseen source two train platforms away. "What do we do now?" she inquired reaching for her hip pistol and looking toward her partner for guidance.

"Don't make a move for your weapon just yet. Whatever's happening, nobody knows that we are part of it. Withdraw your firearm and we're MADE. We'll never get out of here without a firefight," the older agent told her as she drew back her hand from her holster. "Just stand down until we have no other choice in the matter." He then said looking into the direction of the disturbance. "I didn't hear a gun shot over there, it may not be one of us after all." he added as Aurora matched his gaze.
