The moment the group heard the sirens, panic washed over their faces like a wave. Steven lifted both of his hands, clutching the sides of his head.
"I knew it… I knew I was going to get screwed over the moment he asked me to fight high schoolers, of all things," Steven said, nearly collapsing to his knees. "Why… why did I have to let that damn money taint me!"
In frustration, Sandra shoved Abby, causing her to fall hard to the ground and scrape her knee across the rough surface.
"You b*tch! Look what kind of situation you've gotten us into, what's wrong with you?!"
"I'm sorry!" Abby whimpered, covering her face. She was trembling. This wasn't her lifestyle, she had never been in a real fight before. She couldn't even remember the last time she'd gotten into an argument. "I'm sorry… I just… when I saw Max going up against all those students, and all those weapons in their hands, I didn't know what to do. I panicked…"
Turning red, Sandra raised her hand again, ready to strike her.
