Charlot is 7 years old, so he was obviously less enduring and fast than the other two runners. Charlot felt the stress of a mounted arrest and felt a very heavy weight crushed him on the ground.
The air emptied from his lungs and pain invaded his senses. More than being crushed on the ground but being once again arrested, having seen a man get killed and having received a death threat made Charlot collapse in great sob.
While Charlot was losing himself in dark thinking, he felt the weight on his back lighten up. A hand grabbed his body and lifted it into the air. Charlot identified his savior as the man who had threatened him: the chief!
The chief took Charlot as a bag and continued to run. The guards, who caught Charlot, was now on the ground. The chief had kicked him in the head.
With Joe at his side, the chief passed through a door which led outside. The street was completely empty, there was just a very strange boat. Charlot never saw this type of vehicle. The vehicle appeared to float a few centimeters above the ground. It was shaped like a boat hull. Many symbols seemed to be drawn on the amounts of the vehicle.
"Oh, my god! There are behind!!!" cried Joe. Joe jumped in the driver's seat and pressed the accelerator. The chief just had time to enter the boat when it already started to move. He launched Charlot to the ground and clung to the aero-slider.
Feeling the vibration of the aero-slider, Charlot also clung to the aero-slider. The vehicle started to take speed. Charlot felt his heart accelerate in the face of the speed that this machine demonstrated.
Exiting the alley, the aero-slider turned abruptly and arrived on a big avenue. There was a lot of cars from the 19th century who circulated on the avenue. Despite the presence of all these cars, Joe avoided them all and managed his vehicle like a virtuoso. Nothing seemed to stop Joe from rushing ahead.
Charlot could hear the noise from the guard's sirens. Two guard's cars pursued Joe, but they were very slow compared to the aero-slider. Even if they were slow, other guard's cars could arrived and blocked Joe.
As he began to distance the police cars, another aero-slider, comparable to the one in which our young hero was, landed from another alley at full speed! In the other aero-slider, two men with black cloak were looking at them like prey. They were excited and thought that they will soon accomplished their goal.
"It's good Rolland, this two low life from the downtown should know their fu***** place! We need to take the black briefcase. Give me a good angle and I shot them with my big cannon!" laughed one of the black cloak men.
"Don't talk, I need concentration. This guy! How can he drive like this!" marveled Rolland.
"Boy take this." The chief gave Charlot the briefcase and took out a pistol who was attached to the aero-slider. The pistol glowed with blue light. The chief started to fire at the other aero-slider but when the bullets from the pistol were closed to the aero-slider, a strange blue shield appeared and blocked the bullet. It was an energy field that repelled the bullets. Charlot was shocked by the accuracy of the chief, they were moving at high speed! "This guy is so strong" thought Charlot. Joe stopped to fire but continued to maintain his arm to shot. One second later, the pistol grew brighter and brighter. It's looks like an energy was accumulated in the pistol.
" Aaaaahhh!" cried Charlot. The avenue was going down and Joe had not slowed down. The aero-slider took off from the ground. But the aero-slider veered to the left and went above the passer-by. Joe didn't have any more control of the aero-slider.
As Charlot thought he will die, Joe used the building to the side and made a drift on the façade of the building. The aero-slider arrived at the end of the building; and Joe gave an impulsion to the aero-slider to return on the road.
The aero-slider passed again above the passer-by but also above the other aero-slider. Charlot was hit hard on landing. Charlot couldn't think of anything. What happened: the drift and that course sounded unreal.
The chief seemed unperturbed by the situation, it's seemed that he was not afraid to die but maybe he was just confident in Joe or he knew he will not die.
At the landing, the pistol in the hand of the chief has now arrived at the limit of energy he could accumulated. The chief released the trigger. The bullet who contained all the accumulated energy, shot toward the other aero-slider. It went through the energy shield and exploded the head of the men who was at the side of Rolland.
At the sight of his companion's death, Rolland seemed to lose his reason and rushed to Joe without worrying about the repercussions. Rolland's aero-slider hit Joe's aero-slider. Joe's slider swerved on the sidewalk before crashing into a watch shop after hitting two passers-by who now seemed to be dying. The Rolland's slider, meanwhile, was embedded in a lamppost, killing him instantly.
Charlot had managed to hold on to the rear of the slider until the final impact, when he was thrown forward. Luckily, he landed on one of the store's customers. He had crushed her, but his weight was not huge, so he fortunately did not hurt the client.
The client was in fact a woman of 40 years old with a young girl at her side. The young girl was 10 years old and screamed when she saw her mother be attacked by a stranger.
"Mom! Assassin!"
She ran and kicked Charlot in his stomach. Charlot caught her foot and pushed her to make her fall. The mother saw her girl being pushed aside so she ran and caught her before she felt.
"Lily! Nothing touched you?!"
While he was getting up, Charlot found himself again crushed by this time a personal guard belonging to the women and the daughter. They were at the entrance of the shop during the accident and didn't have the time to protect the duo.
There three bodyguard in total. One was on top of Charlot and the two other bodyguards were now before the mother and her child.
During this time, the chief was at the back of the shop. He made a higher jump than Charlot, but it's look like it was a simple jump for him. He had a dagger in one of his hands that make the guard wary.
A silence settled for a few seconds, the chief was evaluating the situation but, at the next instant, he dashed in one of the corners of the shop. Everyone was surprised by his sudden move.
The chief grabbed the briefcase that was on the ground and returned to his initial position:
" Let the boy go."
His tone left no room for discussion. The guard felt it and decided to back up and stand between the chief and the mother with her daughter, Lily.
It was at this moment that Joe made his apparition. He walked out of the driver's seat with a haggard air. Blood flowed from a wound on his forehead.
"Police is here." Said the chief.
"I, I follow you. "Sigh Joe.
"Go to the back of the shop there is a door. I'll slow them down." The chief replied.
Joe went to the back of the store and Charlot followed him. As they arrived facing the door, Charlot saw an intense blue light. A huge blue transparent wall separating the chief and the police had just magically appeared. The chief's right arm shone the same color as the wall and Charlot could see a strange symbol engraved in Joe's arm lighting up.
The chief turned around and ran to catch up with Charlot and Joe.
Charlot and Joe left the shop to be joined by the chief right after. Once the chief pulled out, he clenched his fist and the wall seemed to explode from inside releasing a wave of energy pushing the police who attacked the wall to fall down. The clients on whom Charlot had landed, were protected by their guards who activated a protective bubble around their clients and themselves.
The energy wave caused a series of accidents on the avenue by causing various road accidents. The chief had just caused a real mess and probably killed again innocent people. But the chief didn't care much about the consequences of his actions and without a look back, he took Charlot on his shoulder and rushed into a frightened race.
As he ran down the street, the chief saw a car ,who take the driveway in which he was standing. Raising his arm, the chief made the driver of the car walk out of his conductor place by telekinesis. Joe took directedly the control of the car and the chief threw Charlot at the back seat.
The chief sat down next to the conductor and Joe restarted the car at full speed without speaking.
