I ran towards the van after Darx was attacked and helped him up.
"You okay?" I asked, as I brushed the dust off of him.
"I'm fine."
He hops in the back of the van, and I look back at Michelle who was still looking at cars. "You coming?"
They look up and Michelle exclaims, "Oh, you found a Humvee!"
"It was Alyx's doing."
She walked over and climbed in the back. I then went over to the front passenger side of the humvee, and knocked on the window. Alyx rolled down the window, and chuckled. "I've always wanted to drive one of these things."
"You can if you want. The real question is if you can get it started."
"I can try. Let me fiddle with these wires under the steering wheel..." His voice faded off as I heard clicking from inside the cabin, not knowing if that was bad.
"Are you okay in there?"
"Yep!" He exclaimed, after which the humvee turned on shortly after.
"Great, you got it working. Let's get out of here."
"There's just one thing. The gate, Nate."
He pointed towards the entrance of the parking garage, to the locked gate. I pondered for a minute, then looked back at him.
"I'll be right back."
I walked towards the booth with the switch that operated the gate, and looked at the door. It was locked tight with a padlock. I tried the door after shooting off the padlock, and found it still locked. I walked over to the window facing the gate, and cupped my hands to the glass.
What I saw was horrifying. A man wearing a formal uniform, presumably the booth operator, hung from a fan inside the booth by his tie. His body hung limply, his eyes rolled back into his head. I recoiled, disgusted, and shot the window twice, before elbowng the glass. The window shattered, and I crawled inside.
The booth was incredibly dark and dank. Blood and writing was on the walls, much of the writing tally marks of how long he had been there. There were 11 groups of 5 tally marks each. Scattered around the booth, were also empty packages of food and drink. Salisbury steak boxes, rotten meatloaf in a cantina container, White Castle cheeseburger wrappers, and Diet Coke bottles sat in various places on the floor. I looked back up at the man.
He looked about 25, and had glasses. His tongue hung limply from his mouth. I felt sorry for him, and shot the tie. He fell to the ground. I kneeled down and closed his eyes manually, pulling his eyelids down. I sat his hands over his chest, and let him rest peacefully. He was lucky he didn't have to witness the horrors of the world anymore.
I diverted my attention to the switch that operated the gate. I flipped it, and watched as the gate retracted, clearing a path for the humvee. I jumped out the window of the booth, and ran towards the van at high speed. Alyx was sitting in the driver seat, and I jumped in shotgun.
"Drive, god dammit, drive!"
The tires of the humvee screeched as we practically flew out of the parking garage. I looked back at Michelle and Darx. She was looking out the window, and he was cleaning his Beretta.
I diverted my view past them, and looked out the back window. I could make out the small outline of a motorcycle.
And it was loving MOVING.
"forget."
"What is it, Nathan?" Michelle was startled and sat up.
"There's a motorcycle following us a couple blocks back."
Darx looked up at me. "What."
I looked at Alyx. "Drive faster, Alyx."
"You got it, Nate." He pushed down on the gas pedal even harder as I leaned out the window and pulled out my P99.
I began to indiscriminately fire at the motorcycle and saw the driver swerve to dodge the bullets. I continued firing, as Alyx drove us to the airport. Hopefully I would get rid of this motorcyclist.
