Chapter 96
“Bullseye!” Zollner shouted.

I imagined Massimo lying on the ground bleeding –
The man on the motorcycle fires his gun at my parents –
“You got him?!” Aurelio asked.
Zollner sounded confused. “Well, it was dead center, but… he appears to be carrying… a car door?!”
I lifted my head, eyes wide.
“…what?” Aurelio said in bewilderment.
Zollner laughed. “I’ll bet he took it off a bulletproof car… clever boy!”
Suddenly I could feel my heart beating again.
Aurelio was pissed. “Take out the others, then.”
There was a clack-clack! as Zollner worked the lever on his rifle. The brass shell ejected and hit the rooftop with a metallic clink!
“I shall,” Zollner said cheerfully as he aimed again. “Oh, look – they’re wearing bulletproof vests! That’s so cute. Effective against a nine millimeter round, ja… but not so good against a .338 Laupa Magnum.”
CRACK.
