Chapter 21: Too Busy Arguing
The armored guys groaned a bit as they stood up, and they began to wonder what had hit them. Nadia and Shard had already ducked behind the wall.
"Where's the gun?" She whispered to him.
"You had it last." He reminded her, whispering also.
"You knocked it out of my hands."
"Well, where is it now?" He asked her. Nadia was closest to the corner, so she peeked to see where the gun was. She saw the two armored guys, and each one had their gun back.
"They got 'em. They both got their guns back."
"Then I'll have to do a sneak attack like before. You wait here. Try not to get shot." Shard told her. Then he started to walk away. Nadia grabbed his arm and pulled him back.
"Woah, woah, woah. Who said you would do all the work? I can take them out myself, and probably do it better than you can. So how about you wait here, and I'll take them out. Oh, and try not to get shot. I want to be able to continue our fight."
"I am not waiting here while you fight them. Besides, you'll most likely get shot with the way you fight."
"Oh, really? In case you've forgotten, Fluffy, I did a sneak attack on you while you had the gun, and I even took it from you."
"You also failed to shoot me."
"That is besides the point!" She whispered harshly. Then they each could hear the men talking.
"...We could use some back-up. We got knocked out by something, and we're not sure what..... Right.... Yes, sir.... Over." One guy said. You couldn't really hear the response, but it couldn't have been anything good.
"Oh, great. Now there's going to be more of them. This is all your fault!" Nadia whispered to Shard.
"My fault? How is any of this my fault?" He questioned.
"You knocked them out in the first place. Now they're calling for back-up."
"They would have done that anyway if they saw us. Look, now is no time to be arguing. Just stay out of the way, and I'll take them out myself."
"Oh, no, you don't. I'm not going to sit helplessly on the sidelines while you do everything. I'm not some damsel in distress." She said. Shard sighed.
"Fine. Do whatever you what then. But it won't be my fault if you get shot."
"I won't, and don't expect me to help you if you get into trouble."
"I don't need your help. You're in the way. I was doing just fine before you showed up." He said. Then they heard the sound of guns being locked and loaded. They could hear footsteps coming towards them.
"Well, we're both going to be riddled with bullets if we don't do something fast." Nadia whispered.

I live my life inside a dream, only waking when I sleep.
Yeah, I've been living in the state of dreaming, living in a make-believe land.
