Abandoned Warehouse - Maxwell's Staging Area
"Everyone get down!" Aiden shouted, yanking Marina to the floor of the SUV as bullets shattered the windows. Everywhere was now filled with chaos—shouting, gunfire, and the screeching sound of car tires.
Jayden crouched behind the vehicle, as he yelled over the din. "What the hell is going on, Aiden? Is this Maxwell's private army?"
"Stay down!" Aiden screamed, reaching for a hidden gun under his car seat.
The armed men advanced with a tight formation. One stepped forward, his voice was slightly higher than the noise. "Aiden Wellington! Surrender now, and we will not harm you, refuse and you will leave me no option than to open fire on you!!!"
Aiden scoffed, still holding on to the gun. "I am afraid it is too damn late for that."
Marina's voice started shaking as she clung to him. "Aiden, we can not take them all on. What do you have in mind; what is the plan!?"
