Election Day

Bronte dragged Norman along the pavement. Seducing all those wills had exhausted him. His wounds drained him as well. The sharp grains of the pavement pulled at his belt and scrapped the exposed skin at his waist raw. Then it stopped.

Norman opened his eyes.

“Don’t move!” came a stern voice.

Norman lifted his head an inch. Three police officers stood with their guns drawn, blocking their escape. Soon more would arrive. He focused on the police. He reached but slipped. He could not hold even one of them. He had nothing left.

Bronte dropped his arms, and he fell back to the pavement. His head thudded and rang.

“We don’t have to do this,” said Bronte.

“Put your hands in the air,” shouted an officer. Two more moved in with guns drawn. “Now or we shoot.”

Norman saw more people rapidly approaching. He so wanted to sleep. Two large men in Corps. V military uniforms moved in front of the line of officers. “Let us handle this.”

Bronte pulled her blades from her belt. One of the Corps. V nodded to the other, and he took a step to the side. They were about to flank her. She was valiant, but they had her outnumbered and they couldn’t be killed, at least not by conventional means.

Norman heard the rushed steps a fraction of a second before a form blurred up behind the two soldiers. Their eyes popped wider, and they grunted. Rufus stood behind them with his fists raised to the back of their necks. They twisted around to face their new enemy. It was then Norman saw the syringes sticking out of the back of their necks.

Rufus spun, and kicked both of them. They fell back onto the ground. They reached around their heads grasping at the syringes. It wouldn’t save them. Georgios’ serum would shrivel them to oblivion.

Rufus sprinted through the line of policemen and tossed Norman over his shoulder. The officers fired a volley of shots. Several bullets popped through the flesh near his spine as he sped away on Rufus’ back.

They were gone down the street too fast for tracing fire to follow. Into the darkness. The sounds receded to nothing. Norman fell into sleep.
