The Television Studio?
``Quick lock the door.''
JJ locked the door deliberately leaving the key, slightly turned in the keyhole to make it more difficult for anyone to enter, and taking the other keys with him. After all the noise, death and violence outside this room was surreally quite. The four remaining resistance pervaded the room. It was a large room with a large mahogany desk to one side, beside which were two chairs. About the walls were pictures of the BEAUTIFUL LOVER as young child with a woman one must assume was her mother. It was obvious this was not a television studio.
In the centre of the room was a deep red swivel arm chair, with its back facing the four. A thin veil of smoke rose from the other side of the chair. The four, pointing their guns advanced on the chair. They watched as it slowly turned round. Sat in it was a woman in her late forties. One hand was resting on the arms of the chair, the other held a cigarette in a cigarette holder. She was wearing a lavish white silk dress. Around her neck sparkled a diamond and gold necklace several and on each finger were large diamond rings. Her nails were so long they almost reach the floor. She placed her feet on a red leather poof, exposing her right leg through a slit in the dress. Her feet were bare and her toenails were inconceivably long. This was not a woman that did anything physical. Despite all the killing, she looked relaxed. She smiled at them. The four of them all pointed their guns directly at her.
``So you pathetic band of renegades think you can destroy me, Mary, head of the Angels. Put your guns away.'' She said.
They were pinned to the floor. An invisible power forced their hands to place their guns on the floor in front of them. They each found it impossible to resist.
``Now you will see what real power is.'' Mary said. She raised her right hand and pointed her index finger at Al.
He started to shake. His teeth chattered. ``Oh my God, help me'' he cried, his voice sounding pained. He shook faster and faster. Blood started dripping from his nose. His moan became a scream. His eyeballs exploded one after the other spraying blood and brain over room and JJ who has standing next to him. His skin split in a hundred different places and bile came out. Bits of his body few over to different parts of the room. A hand here, an ear there. Finally in one endless scream his entire body exploded. A mass of blood, bone, and bile flew in every direction covering their remaining three assailants.
They were all shaking. They had never seen anything so horrific. They turned to Mary. She was the only person not covered with bits of Al. Calm and relaxed she said ``And now your turn.'' She raised her hand and pointed to JJ. He swallowed, fearing the same end as Al.
But no. Instead of dying a hideous death, it was Mary who shouted: ``No, it can't be happening''. She was staring up. JJ followed her gaze and thought he saw two large eyes looking down though the ceiling. He suddenly realised he could move his hands. He quickly picked up his gun pointed it at Mary and pulled the trigger. He pulled the trigger again and then again. He continued pulling the trigger until all the bullets had be used up and the gun was just clicking. Mary looked a complete mess.
The other two stared at her in silence. The calm was broken by a loud bang. They were shooting at the door. It would only be a matter of seconds before they were through. Anna pulled JJ. He looked up and saw they were heading towards a second door on the opposite side of the room. They got there and JJ tried to unlock the door. His hands shaking so much that Anna pushed him out of the way and tried instead. The second key she tried fitted and they were through down a short flight of steps to a private car park. There were three cars, two large Rolls Royces, and a smaller red convertible spots car with the roof on. Anna dragged them towards the sports car. JJ wasn't sure if this was because if was the fastest means of escape, it was the least conspicuous or just Anna wanted to drive a red sports car.
There was an obvious car key in the bunch, she tried this and the door opened. ``I'll start the car, you open the garage door'' she said to Paul. She got in the front and JJ got in behind her. The car started like a dream, she revved the engine. Paul opened the gate. There were a couple of Angels outside. Paul fired a couple of rounds hitting one of them. Anna drove at full speed, Paul leaped in the back and they were out, onto the street.
There were a couple more shots from outside but none of them hit their target.
``I don't understand it.'' JJ said as they sped along the empty streets. ``Where was the television studio? How could Anne Marie have got it so wrong? And now she's dead.''
They sped through the clear streets at an incredible speed. Behind them they saw several police and Angel's cars, which they were just managing to keep ahead of. They drove in a tunnel. Suddenly everything want dark. Anna hit the breaks. The car skidded hitting some unidentifiable objects. It span wildly out of control before hitting something with a loud crashing sound of bending metal and flying glass. The three were thrown violently forward against there seat belts. In shock the three of them sat listened to the sound of there breathing.
