Lyca was getting up from her chair when she saw Officer Karmody helping Radwell out of the restaurant. As soon as she saw her elbow the man though, Lyca just frowned in confusion and got back down on her seat.
"I wonder what happened? She seemed really pale back there," Rafe commented after the waiter took away their leftover pizza for take out.
Lyca shrugged. "I wouldn't know. I just met-"
The glass suddenly shattered right next to them. Lyca and Rafe ducked and crawled out of their booth. From the sound of it, someone seemed to be firing at them.
"The hell?!" Lyca shouted. Rafe directed his own shouts to the other people. "Overturn your tables and stay on the ground!"
Gunfire came from the front parking lot. Officers Karmody and Radwell must've returned fire. Lyca pulled on her brother and they headed for the counter. Was someone already calling the police? Bringing out her mobile, Lyca dialled the police.
Rafe pulled her back suddenly and her mobile fell out of her hands and onto the floor. But not before it was shot through by bullets.
Cold sweat rolled down her face. Shit.
