Chapter 14 Unexpected High Jacking

As they arrived at the police station Silver left Amber in a room across from one of the cells like the female cop asked him to do. Once it was just the two of them in the room she stared at him and said "When you were in that alleyway your shoulder was shot, however, that injury is healed now and was healing inside the car, care to explain how." Silver thought about it for a moment and said "I don't really get it either." She stared at him and slammed a paper down as she said "You were the one who killed this man, the one who was working on the nanobots aren't you?"

Silver stared hard at the picture and said "I can't get a good view of his face." The female cop opened a file and said "That's because that was the crime scene, he was shot through the head." Silver nodded and said, "That explains why I didn't recognize him." The female cop showed him the picture of the man before he was shot and asked "Do you recognize him now?" Silver stared at the picture and said "Sorry I still don't recognize him." The female cop set the folders aside and sat down as she sighed and said "It's all hopeless now."

Silver stared at her and asked, "What's hopeless?" The female cop glared at him and said "I was hoping you'd be the criminal so I could arrest you and get a promotion for stopping most of the crimes around here." Silver sat there and said, "Wait you wanted me to be a criminal?" The cop nodded and said, "Although this may sound rude, yeah, I really wanted you to be a criminal." Silver stood up and said, "I better get going, I hope you catch him." The female cop stared at him and mumbled "My hunches are never wrong, it has to be him."

As Silver walked out of the room he saw one of the convicts talking to Amber. Silver stood there quietly by the door as the convict said "Why don't you let me out, if you do I can kill anyone you want." Silver walked towards Amber while glaring at the convict with a murderous look. The convict instinctively backed away and held his chest as he asked "What kind of feeling, no I know this feeling, it's the feeling you get when you think you're about to die." The convict stared at Silver and said "I better avoid picking fights with certain people."

The convict stared at Silver and said, "Maybe, he'll let me out." The convict went to call for him but as he went to talk he froze and was unable to say anything." Silver bent down to Amber and smiled as he said "What's up, I didn't take too long did I?" As Amber shook her head the convict thought to himself "That little girl tamed a monster." As Silver picked her up he said "Alright, let's go before any more strange men begin to talk to you." As Silver passed by the cell again the convict moved away from the bars once again."

Once outside Silver yawned and said, "We should get home pretty soon it's getting dark." As the female cop pulled up in front of them with a car she said "I'll give you guys a lift since it was me who brought you here." Silver stared at her and said, "Um, thanks." As they got into the car she asked "Where to?" Silver stared at her and said, "You know that four-star hotel a few blocks away?" The female cop nodded and said, "I know where it is so just sit back and relax."

As they began to drive towards the hotel she asked "So what's your line of work." Silver stared at her and said, "I guess I do a few different things so I'm not really sure, I guess I'm like a contracted employee." She glanced at him and said, "That sounds like it could be a bit tough at times, tell me what exactly do you do, don't skip any details." Silver thought for a moment and said "I gather information, I spread information, and I work with the information others give me."

As something landed on the top of the car it began to swerve a bit. Silver stared at her and said, "Sounds like you got a visitor." The female cop glanced at him and said "No, it was just a speed bump." As footsteps were heard on top of the car Silver, asked, "Do you still think they're road bumps?" The female cop stared at the roof of the car and said "Someone is seriously up there?"

As a sharp piece of metal was shoved through the roof Silver stared at it and said "Looks like they plan to ride with us until we stop." As the lower half of a person jumped down onto the hood of the car the female cop shouted "Dammit they're trying to high jack the vehicle." Silver stared at the legs and said "Seems like today is pretty eventful." Silver glanced at Amber who was shaking in fear at the sight of the person's legs as he said "Don't worry, I'm sure everything will be fine."

Amber held onto Silver's arm and asked "Are we gonna die?" Silver glanced at the legs and said "Nah this person is an amateur, we should be completely fine." The female cop glanced at both of them and shouted "Now is not the time to have a peaceful talk, the vehicle is currently being stolen mid-drive." Silver glanced up at the roof and said "Put my window down and I'll deal with it." The policewoman glanced at him and said "Not happening, I'd lose my job if I put a civilian in any more danger than this."

Silver stared at her and said, "That is the stupidest shit I've ever heard, now put my window down." As a face came into view Silver pulled out his gun and shot at it while shouting "I'll get it!" As the car swerved the bullet missed and Silver asked "Why did you swerve?" The police lady glanced at him and shouted "Why are you firing your gun off in an extremely populated area!" The head moved up and out of sight as Silver said "No reason, in particular, you know just trying to stay alive!"

Silver stared at the broken hole in the glass and said "I'll cover the damages but for now put my window down." She glanced at him and shouted, "Not happening so sit there and shut up while I try to figure this out!" Silver climbed up to the front seat and through the broken windshield as he said "Fine then, I'll just go out through here." As Silver stuck his head out a sharp piece of metal was shoved through the car hood in front of his face.

Silver glanced up at him and said "Metal in your arms?" Silver aimed the gun at her head and shouted "Don't know what you want but get lost!" As he shot the car swerved once again and the bullet missed. Silver glanced at the female cop and shouted "Hold still, I can't get a clear shot." The female cop stared at him and said "Just get your ass back in your seat." As the person raised its other arm Silver stared at it and said "That's some sharp metal!" As Silver attempted to avoid it the car swerved throwing him in the way of the sword-like arm.

As it pierced his chest he mumbled "This would be... so much easier... if I was alone." As the car came to a stop the policewoman shouted "Shit it hit the engine!" Silver began to pull the metal out of his chest as he said "Grab Amber... and run." The policewoman began to shoot at it as she shouted "Get the hell off of him." After shooting the metal arms of the creature she glanced around and said "Dammit I forgot to bring extra bullets." Silver kicked the creature off of himself and asked "Why... would you short the metal?"

The creature landed on the road and let out a loud screech. Silver stood on top of the hood of the car and held his gun up to it as he said "Now I gotcha." After Silver sent a bullet through the creature's head he held his injury and said "That's gonna take way longer than an hour." Silver glanced at the female cop and said "I could've dealt with it sooner if you could've stopped swerving or put my window down."

The female cop stared at his injury and asked "Are you going to be alright?" Silver nodded and asked, "Is Amber okay?" The female cop glanced behind her at Amber and said "She's fine, she hasn't even moved." Silver picked Amber up and said, "Next time we should just walk." Amber stared at his chest and asked "Are you really gonna be okay?" Silver nodded and said, "Of course, dying isn't on my agenda."
