Twenty-Two

Mark ripped the wheel turning north on Walden Road and jammed the pedal to the floor. At Erie he turned right, barely slowing, then right again into the subdivision. He needed to draw the gunmen away from Lynn and Caleb so they could make their getaway. .

He rounded the corner of his street and slowed down, not wanting to run headlong into the shooters. All he wanted them to do was catch sight of him and begin pursuit. Up ahead the two men had climbed into a car. Mark floored it, not so much for the speed, but to rev the engine and draw their attention. They had an immediate reaction within the car. The driver, without thinking, opened his door to get out and shoot. Mark veered toward the open door, slamming it shut and just missing the man’s leg.

Mark blasted his horn three times as he drove away, hoping that would be enough signal for Lynn and Caleb to move. Mark checked his mirrors. The car made a U-turn in the street and took up the chase. He was around the next corner before he could see if Lynn and Caleb made their escape.

The subdivision had some short streets and several curved roads that kept them out of view of the pursuing car. Leaving the development in a sharp, uncontrolled turn, Mark accelerated down the back road until he hit Walden again. There, he made a sharp left. A quarter mile farther was the turn for the farmhouse. He hadn’t planned on taking it but when he looked back, there was no sign of pursuit. Making a last-second decision, Mark pulled the wheel right. As far as he could tell they were in the clear, which should have made him relax. But something nagged at him. He shook his head and swore under his breath. They shouldn't have been able to lose them that easy. The chasing car was just too close to them for that. So either Mark had done more damage to the shooter’s car then he thought … or Lynn and Caleb had been discovered.

The more he thought about it, the more afraid for their safety he became. An internal battle waged within him. He had Darren's safety to consider too. Mark decided to go to the farmhouse. While there he could change vehicles and gather whatever weapons he might need to go back and try to rescue them.

He stopped short of the farmhouse and looked behind him to make sure no one was hanging back. Seeing the road empty, he made the turn, pulling up the driveway and around back where the others were waiting for him. The pickup truck had already been unloaded.

Mark hopped out and ran for the house. He went through the assorted weapons laid out on the living room floor. He grabbed a box of 9mm shells for his pistol, a box of shotgun shells and ten rounds for the rifle. He already had the survival knife at his belt.
