A blood-soaked man crawled out of the overturned car, pointing a gun at Victoria.
Janelle, who had fallen to the ground, widened her eyes. She cried out at Victoria anxiously.
Bang!

towards the man and circled him. With a flash of crimson light, the man froze in his spot.
Clunk! A second bloodied man crawled out of the car. Victoria took a quick look and turned away,
heading towards Janelle.
Noticing the gun in the man’s hand, Janelle shouted, “Watch out! He has a gun!”
Victoria smiled.
“Bang!” The first man turned towards the second man and shot his gun. The second man collapsed
with a bullet in his head. As blood spilled out of the wound, his face was frozen with confusion. Why did
his comrade pull the trigger on him?
Janelle stared in shock. Why did he kill his friend? Wait, that’s not important now. A man just committed
murder here! Her face grew pale as she stared at the lifeless body on the ground.
Victoria reached out her hand towards Janelle. “Are you alright?” Her small face was filled with
concern.
“Thanks. I’m good.” Looking at Victoria’s hand, she remembered that Victoria had just overturned a car
with a punch. She hesitated for a moment.

“Victoria, thankfully you were with me! If you hadn’t pushed me away, I could have…” Janelle glanced
at the man lying on the road. Her eyes flickered with fear. “I think we should leave now.” She said
weakly.
Victoria looked back and nodded. “Let’s go.”
Walking a few meters away, Janelle sneaked a look at the first man, who was still frozen in his spot.
Her eyes widened as the man seemed to move.
“Run! He’s following us!” She pulled Victoria along.
