Collab Series 7 Bill's Side Richard Pickett Shogun Series

Cont…”Bill Jump in my car it’s closer!” Bill was just a step behind Brick as they hurdled over the tape barrier and raced to Brick’s car. “You got it pardner! Don’t stop or I’ll be in your hip pocket! Brick got to the driver’s door first and Bill had all he could do to get in and slam the door as Brick swerved into the traffic, got the siren blaring with the blue lights bubbling off the hard top. The tires squealed hell bent for rubber for about three seconds down Walters Ave before they pulled a u-turn and headed one eighty out. “Sorry ‘bout that, Brick hollered, “I caught a glimpse of the perp jumping off the side rail and headed back in this direction!” “Okay thanks for the warning!", Bill yelled back as he hoisted himself up the seat with the strap handle while trying to scan for the outlaw. About that time, Brick swerved around a trash truck, jumped a median and throttled it up another street. “Say Brick, I’ve been meaning to ask you..you got a driver’s license or a facsimile thereof?!” “Huh? What the hell’s a license?!

Bill had all he could do to keep his head from smashing into the headliner above the visor. “Smooth, Brick! Smooth! You been practicing eh?! Sorry about my head denting Your roof!” he quipped while searching the streets for the fugitive. “Hey no problem he yelled over the roaring engine and skidding tires, you can fix It later!… I’m nice like that!” “Is that the alley up ahead, Brick?” “Yeah that’s it!” “Lemme off here and I’ll cover this end of it!” “Right! I’ll spin around the other end and we”ll put the squeeze on him!” Brick Screeched to an almost stop as Bill scrambled out, un shouldered his 9mm and ducked inside a doorway. He peeked around the corner to see Brick already veering around the corner all sirens and blinking lights…(to be cont…)
