Snippet #2191018

Abegail was extremely confused. "Guns...but..." She looked around. She couldn't see anyone in particular or identify where the shots were coming from exactly.

She heard Franklin yell, sort of. His voice carried but the words were garbled under the heavy fire. Abegail ducked down and ran for the closest cover.

"What the hell is goin' on?" She screamed at Franklin, knowing he likely couldn't hear her.

Her eyes darted to the other man. He told her to come and ran towards the plane. Exasperated and scared, her hand still wrapped around her gun in her pocket she followed.

Thanking her sensible nature and her flat shoes, Abegail made it to the plane as Franklin was order in. Gritting her teeth, a quick look over her shoulder and she followed into the metal bird.

"Where are ye taking us now? Ye expect ta just fly this out of here?" She glanced from the "pilot" to where she had entered the plane. "Donna just sit there do somethin' before they shoot us full of holes!"

Abegail crouched by one of the remaining crates. "Franklin, I hope ta the saints ye have a plan."

The driver took Walter and Charlotte to the airport. Once there Charlotte stepped out, carried her bag and headed inside. She found the desk that she needed, procurred the waiting tickets and handed Walter's to him.

"Ready Dr Rivers?"

Charlotte smiled, linked her arm with Walter's and led him to the line up for their flight.

Once they had boarded and settled in Charlotte yawned. "The excitement has caught up to me. I do hope you do not mind if I doze a bit." She closed her eyes, not waiting for a response. Charlotte purposely let her head loll to the side, resting on Walter's shoulder.

Inwardly she smiled. No man had resisted her charms before and she would do whatever it took to keep Walter focused on only her and her mission.
