The text read," get the hell out of the room and better still through the window." Room 106 was on the second floor and jumping out was literally suicide. Wearing his shirt in seconds ,while buckling his trousers he opened the door quietly only to visualize three policemen approaching stealthily. Placing a hand grenade on the door whilst closing it,he then grasped a rope that had materialised on the window.He lowered Linda down to Tumaru's waiting arms, he swiftly followed.
A red Porsche sports car purred patiently nearby. Jumping behind the wheel, Timaru revved the car. Changing gears as the two hopped into the passenger seats. Meanwhile, a sentry atop of Kilmarock hotel , radioed his corporal ," the three have gotten away inn a red Porsche registration KCS 0178T, heading towards Boston town. I repeat they have gotten away..."The police driver cursed , his job was at stake , after filling to outrun him last time , he had been threatened.He slammed on the accelerator, forcing the 'Peugeot 504' to lurch forward. An array of similar cars furiously trailed him closely . The hunt had began.
The police cars drew closer and closer. Timaru looked via the rear view mirror and announced rather casually ," Adventure time fellas get in the game." Pressing further on the accelerator, he swerved sharply to the right changing his direction to Daresam city. Unsurprised, the police driver followed suit, despite sweating , the Porsche gained on them heavily . " Fire at them they are getting away," he shouted desperately. The marksman at the front seat let out a dozen of bullets from his sub machine.
Pieces of glass shattered and showered on the two backseat passengers. One bullet narrowly missed Dodger gracing him on the cheek."If they are forcing me to do this, then so be it," muttered Dodger whilst cocking hid gun. As he lifted himself to aim another bullet passed by where he was a second ago. He aimed at the front tyre and smiled as the lead car rolled and overturned. Another car took the lead." That was great,"Timaru grunted as he concentrated on his driving.
A trailer that was trying to turn started to block the road. Timaru stomped on the accelerator and was past it as it blocked the road. The police cars swerved dangerously as they applied the brakes. Their car engines hissed and spurted hot vapor, the race was lost. They shook their heads as the red Porsche disappeared from their view. A helicopter had been deployed to continue with the chase. As it hovered down it noticed a great traffic jam. The pilot thinking it was a great carnage swooped down only to be met with angry policemen.
Linda could not believe it, they had made it out alive. The gun in her hand was still cocked, she had not used it. The roar of the helicopter's engine was heard as they approached Daresam city. Timaru glanced at the speedometer and was shocked to find it at 200km per hour. He though he had been applying more force before realizing it was it's speed limit. He glanced at the 3km race to the city. The pilot registered the red Porsche as it entered the city. He tried to alert the city's policemen but to his dismay, the wireless connection didn't work.
Timaru stopped the car and abandoned it.Walking on foot they entered ," Killers bar and Hotel ."Ordering beer they discussed over the business matter."We are going to me my boss in the afternoon,"Timaru mumbled as he rose from his table having done his stomach justice.

Dodger and Linda were ushered into a secret cave on the mountainous-hilly sides of the suburbs of Daresam city.The cave was a two- hour drive from the bustling city. The exterior of the cave was covered by bushes and was not easily noticed by the ordinary eyes. The caves mouth was wide enough to accommodate two people at a time .What utterly shocked the two was what they saw inside.A spiral of stairs descended into a sea of lights. The cave widened as they spiralled down.
It was literally another world.....mmh, no another dimension. The lights torched the place displaying a magnificent aura of expense and modern taste. The walls were covered in exquisite pieces of art portraying legendary gangsters, ' Griselda Blanco, Anthony Sarlenko, Pablo Escobar,and even the modern Joaquin Guzman Loera ' El Chapo',' among others. The cool breeze that blew from the air conditioners, the extravagant olive mahogany tables.The plush executive sofas,well-stocked bar counter on the corner.The music that wafted from the woofers embedded onto the walls of the cave. It was simply a fairy land.
The bubble and hustle of the stone- faced criminals ushered them back to reality. Dodger was mesmerized by the abode when a gorgeous woman brought them drinks in a tray. At a table sat four men,silently observing the ' newbies'.At the head of the table sat a man with an authoritative voice that boomed above the music. On his laps sat two young maidens that added to his comfy. " Are these the people that you have chosen Timaru? To me they look like cops if not sitting ducks.." he said , then added," kid are you the famous Dodger?"
Playing aloof for a resonate amount of time,I chattered back," as it seems."Everyone bursted out laughing and I could see his big beard shaking with his eyes spewing flames. He stood up mechanically," Boyya you don't seem to know whose the boss here!! Let's battle to prove it," he blurted whilst pointing a blade to me. Everything and everyone went dead silence. An oppressive and omnious atmosphere filled the cave
Timaru threw a quick but aversive glance at me. "Good... good.... " he kept uttering as he left. Timaru quickly advanced towards me and urged me to withdraw ,claiming that he had killed all those he had challenged.This made him a ruthless ruler and he ruled with an iron grip.
But I was no coward... especially in front of her...
