Amber

‘Stop laughing and let them go.’

It was Amber. She was standing on one of the cars. She was holding a baby. She pointed a gun at its head.

‘Let them go,’ she said to the Tall Man. ‘Let us all go.’

The Tall Man laughed. He thought this was funny.

‘Look out, lads,’ he said. ‘She’s got herself a popgun.’

The Tall Man pointed at Amber.

‘You’re not going to shoot me with that. You wouldn’t dare.’

Amber nodded. Then she laughed. Then she shot the Tall Man right in his foot. He screamed in pain. Amber pointed the pistol at the baby again. The baby howled.

‘Call them off,’ she said. ‘Tell everyone to go away and leave us alone. Otherwise, I am going to shoot your daughter.’

The Tall Man nodded. He looked worried. He was really hurt. He looked around.

‘You heard what she said, lads,’ he said. ‘You’d better give us all some space. I’ll be along in a little while.’

Everyone went away. I was amazed.

Amber told us to get out. I saw Ellis. She wanted to help me. I didn’t want her to.

‘Let me help you, Jake,’ she said. ‘You were very brave.’

I knew that Abe was watching. I didn’t speak.

Vinnie hugged his sister. Abe climbed out. He was going to hit the Tall Man. He stepped forward ready.

Amber stood in front of her brother.

‘Don’t, Abe,’ she said. ‘He’s coming with us.’

Abe shrugged. He poked the Tall Man’s foot. The Tall Man cried out.

‘Does that hurt?’ said Abe.

The Tall Man looked up at Abe. He sucked his teeth. His foot looked really painful.

‘I’ll kill you, you little shit!’ he said. ‘Just see if I don’t.’

Amber stayed where she was.

‘No one is killing anyone,’ she said.

She sounded in charge.

‘We’re leaving through the front gate and you’re coming with us.’

The Tall Man struggled to stand.

‘You won’t get away with this,’ he said. ‘They’ll never let you leave here alive.’

‘They will if you tell them to,’ said Amber. ‘And you are going to tell them to or I will shoot you again and this time I will aim a little higher.’

She pointed the gun at him. She meant what she said.

‘Start walking towards the gate and tell them all to let us through.’

Amber looked at the rest of us.

‘Stay together. We’re leaving now.’

The Tall Man hobbled. We followed behind him. There was a group of men ahead of us. I slowed down. The Tall Man shook his head.

‘Let them through, lads,’ he said. ‘If they’re brave enough to pull a stunt like this then we should let them get on with it.’
