"I need to go," Nicolette said, clenching her fists.
She saw where he had run. If these bloody guards would just let her go, she could follow the man with the full black hair before he disappeared completely.
"No funny business," the guard said, poking the gun in her back.
"Hey, easy on the lady!" Trainer snapped.
Another guard approached Trainer, and she could tell he had a gun pointed at his back too.
"Three more minutes and you'll be free to do whatever," the guard behind her said.
Three minutes was too long. By then, the full-haired guy would have been gone.
What could she do?
Think, Nicolette!
And she did.
"I can't hold it in. I need to pee," she said. And then paused for the guards' reactions.
Neither of the guards said anything, but the guns remained pointed.
"You heard the lady! Don't be a dick!" Trainer snapped again.
"Fine," the guard behind her said as he lowered the gun. "Let's go."
