Chapter 10c -- Android, iPhone & Kindle Books


Problems arose on their return to the church. The Wizard's directions seemed to take them out of their way; from the map, Helen could see a much shorter way back to the church. She convinced Wolfenstein to take the shorter route through the heart of town.

The ambush happened on Washington Avenue, southwest of Old Boston. Members of Tar's gang saw white guys in the truck cruising the strip and phoned ahead with cellulars. A motor-gun pummeled the driver's side blowing apart Crucible instantly. Wolfenstein took a hit to the forearm and dropped to the floor, pulling Helen down with him. Wolf pushed the brake pedal by hand; the truck skidded to a stop.

Steam oozed out of the front of the truck. The mist hissed, and meandered upward from an apparently lifeless hulk. Six lanky gang members dressed in spandex with turned up baseball hats approached the rig cautiously. An alien silence reigned, but not for long. The gang members flinched as they heard the accordion door roll open at the back of the truck. They all aimed that direction while glancing skittishly at the cab windows. The man with the motor-gun in the gang revved the Husqvarna two-cycle engine and grinned.

At a dead run, three Mountain Boys leaped like gazelles out the back of the truck and shot in mid-air, taking out two and wounding two more before even setting foot on pavement. They continued sprinting for cover behind vehicles fifteen meters down the street. Four more Mountain Boys followed, but this time they dropped straight down and shot from behind the rear wheels of the truck. As the man with the motor-gun tried to follow the sprinters down the street, a myriad of bullets from the second team of gunners vented him, leaving him dead where he stood. At least one motor-gun was now in their possession. One gang member escaped up an alley. It all happened in two seconds--choreographed death as an art form.

Wolfenstein whistled for someone to come to the cab. A young, long-legged rebel named Bird Dog opened the door. "What's the status?" asked Wolf.

"One of them went up an alley."

"Get 'em, Bird Dog."

Bird Dog flipped a lever ejecting the 33-round clip from the bottom of his Glock 24 and shoved a fresh one in the handle as he rounded the front of the truck in an accelerating sprint down the alley. Helen began crawling out the door of the cab. Wolf grabbed her belt and kept her in. "You keep your ass on the floor."

"What!"

"I handle the skirmishes." Wolf moaned as he crawled over her, oblivious to the blood streaming down his arm. "If you have a problem with that, take it up with the boss when we get back."

Wolf looked around Helen at Crucible and saw the slumped body over the steering wheel with multiple holes through his face and head. Wolf's face muscles went limp. He sighed, "Get into Crucible's side pack there and pull out the red disk case." Helen timidly unzipped and dug through the side pack, eventually finding the red case and handing it to the pack leader. Wolfenstein then pulled out a sterilized wrap from his side pack and bound his arm, tying it with his teeth and remaining hand. "Much obliged," he mumbled as he walked to the back of the truck. He left Helen alone in the cab with the bloody corpse.
