“Get down!” Gavin exclaimed. Jenni felt his weight on her as he pulled her to the floor with Andrew. A gun went off. Jenni was too caught up in dropping her head to the floor to know who’s gun it was, but from the loudness of the bang, it didn’t sound like it had a silencer like Gavin’s did. There was a struggle above them as Gavin seized a hold of the attacker and pushed them out of the way of the door.

“Go!” he shouted to Jenni. “Run!”

Jenni took Andrew’s hand and escaped the room, racing for the stairwell. Andrew tripped but was quick to reclaim the ground under him as Jenni opened the door leading out and began making her way back downstairs. There was another gunshot from the fourth floor as she headed down to the base level. Jenni forced open the exit leading out of the building and raced down the block. Andrew gasped and huffed to keep up with Jenni’s quick pace and darting steps. She only stopped when they were back near Gavin’s rented car. Andrew dropped his hands to his knees, wheezing.

“Sorry,” Jenni panted. “I probably could have stopped back there, but...”

Andrew shook his head. “You did what you were supposed to. And you did well.”

Jenni looked back at the tall office building in worry. She hoped Gavin would be all right. She wasn’t entirely familiar with agent work, but she didn’t recall them ever getting into serious combat all by themselves.

“Don’t worry about Gavin,” said Andrew. “He’ll be alright.”

“How do you two know each other?” Jenni wondered as she looked back at the battered man now leaning against Gavin’s car.

“It’s a long story. I worked as security for his family. They’re a very wealthy bunch, but due to a disability, I had to give up that life,” said Andrew.

“I’m sorry to hear that. But if he’s that rich, why is he a cop?”

Andrew was about to reply, but footsteps neared, and he and Jenni rushed around the other side of the car and ducked in case it was an enemy. A couple seconds later, Gavin showed up, sweating and gasping, but very much okay.

“Come on, get into the car, both of you! Quickly!” he urged.

Jenni climbed into the back, and Andrew took the front seat next to Gavin. Gavin tore back down the road as fast as he possibly could.

“What happened to the guys up there?” Jenni asked.

“I took care of what I could,” was all Gavin said. “I’m going to drop you back off at the library and then get Andrew to safety.”

“Don’t worry about me,” Andrew spoke up. “I’ll be fine. Just drop me by the police station.”

“I’ve already called them. They’re headed out right now,” Gavin explained.

Andrew didn’t argue. Jenni watched him uncertainly. He seemed to be in serious pain.

“I’ll take you to the hospital,” said Gavin. “Then I’ll drop her off back at the library.”

“Sounds good.”

Jenni stayed quiet in the back. The two men up front seemed to know a lot more about the situation than she did.
