"Peek inside", Laila ordered Anita. Anita carefully poked her head into the hole billowing white smoke. "Boss, there's nothing", she reported. Laila stared at the hole for a while and felt something's amiss. She spread her team out again.
"Come out you coward, you can run but you cant... hide", Laila mumbled as she made another turn. Alec, however, was behind the counter, where Jerald and his wife once stood.
The three women weren't a threat to him at all, he was more concerned with the sniper pointing at the window. If the sniper finds out where he was, he was surely dead. He couldn't risk that.
However, he had a plan.
Alec counted from five, before jumping out of the counter and inside of the opened door, where Jerald had come out. He peeked out again to make sure the sniper was still oblivious.
Then he made his way to the other exit and stopped. He peeked again and saw one of the assassins walking in his direction. The door was closed, so she didn't expect Alec to be there.
