Zack glanced at his companion, he had to admit, she had picked up on this cat burgler business alot faster then he had thought she would, still she was no trained fighter and Zack knew he would have to keep an eye on her...t like Alec suggested that wasn't the worst job in the world.
He shook himself slightly as he realized Asha was talking to him.
"Are they still there?" her voice was pitched low.
Zack peered out into the street
"Yeah"
Asha rubbed her hands together "So what are you gonna do? Give 'em the speech about laying low?"
Zack looked at his wayward siblings and then back to Asha.
"Really don't think that'll work" he announced, Asha poked her head out and frowned the X6s didn't look like they would want to listen to anything all rules and regulations C.O Zack wanted to say.
But if Asha had learned anything during her short time as Max's friend she learned that it was best to do things quickly.
Stepping out of the safety of their hiding place she approached the kids.
Zack swore under his breath, annoyed at the slight hitch in his breath and heart when he realized Asha could get hurt. He repeated Max's comment earlier on that night.
This is not a date.
Asha squated on the ground, ready to move in whatever direction Zack ordered. She felt ready for anything that would happen. She tightened her grip on one of the X6's. A tiny girl, who's eyes were deep green and peaceful. Asha squeezed her hand protectiely although she knew that if any fighting started she would be the one needing protection.
She could feel Zack leaning over her, could feel the warmth of his wool jumper and tried to blank out the safe secure feeling it brought her.
This was buissnes.
Zack gently touched her shoulder, the unspoken order to run. Asha didn't hesitate, keeping her head low as she dived for the car. Hearing explosians all around her. Thankfully she reached the sanctury but a bullet ripped through her shoulder. She didn't even notice as she wrenched the cars door open and flung the kids inside, going around the other side to the drivers side. Making sure Zack was beside her Asha put pedal to the metal and surged out of the enclosed sector.
She drew a sigh of relief as she exited the market place. She glanced at Zack who was looking at her in amazment.
"What?"
Zack shrugged "Didn't know you could drive. You're almost as good as an X series"
Asha snorted "I may not be able to level a two hundred pound linebacker but I can shoot a gun and drive really, really fast."
She didn't look at Zack as she heard him mutter
"My type of girl"
