Simple UnicycleSpecter had grown up most of his life as a bounty hunter, his whole life he was in danger of dying from his targets or from a relative of one of his targets, yet he had always gotten out of it alive, whether it was due to his weapon skills, or his Gift, he would always complete his mission and get out alive... this time, neither his skill or his Gift would prove of any use as one was disabled and the other would simply not make a difference at this point in time, so he took a deep breath, ready to die then and there. However, as the garage opened, a chance to escape with his life had appeared, sliver as it was.
Then Spire basically tossed Hel inside and went guns blazing, killing three of the nearest guards and then running straight for the madman that had barged in here in the first place. This display and with the seeming relative ease that Spire was disposing of his targets emboldened Specter and for a moment, he wanted to go in barging as well, figuring that with his help, they would be able to get to Johnny and use him as a bargaining chip to allow everyone to escape... however, his rationale quickly kicked in. First of all, the soldiers that Spire had killed were only a few of the full number, some of them had surrounded the ranch house and some had entered it and they definitely heard all the commotion going on here, which meant that they would be back here in just a few seconds.
And then, the nail in the coffin of thoughts hit, what if the person that was right above on the armored truck was not actually Johnny, but someone to take his place, nobody, no matter how brave or insane would put himself in the danger of having a stray bullet hit him. However, he would give Spire, the slightest chance of escaping, the slightest chance of getting out of there alive, he pocketed his guns and grabbed two more, a frag grenade and another flashbang. He removed the pin on the flashbang and tossed it out in Spire's direction, hoping it would give him an extra second to catch himself and then, he threw the frag grenade straight towards Spire without removing the pin, hoping that he would be able to use the grenade itself as a bargaining chip.
"Don't die, Spire!" He shouted and feeling he had wasted enough time already, he jumped through the garage doors and to safety... however, it was just in the nick of time, as he felt a bullet going straight through one of his shoulders as he jumped inside the garage... bleeding, but still alive.
"Got room for one more?" Specter asked, gritting his teeth as the pain from the bullet wound finally registered. His eyes had also analyzed the situation inside, there were people there that he had yet to meet though he guessed that they were part of the Wanderers as well, his eyes finally resting on Hel for a few moments, the girl that he saved... or rather had tried to save.
