Chapter 8 - The Intentional Crash
The terrifying sound of screeching rubber and crunching metal flooded through the police radio.
The live GPS dot on the digital map suddenly stopped moving entirely near the massive concrete pillars of the highway overpass.
Thomas had intentionally crashed my multi-million dollar armored car directly into a heavy concrete barrier.
He had sacrificed the vehicle to ensure that Garrick could not reach the private airport and escape justice.
Commissioner Fletcher screamed for the driver of our command SUV to get to the crash site immediately.
We arrived at the scene less than three minutes later, finding the highway completely blocked by flashing police lights.
My beautiful black town car was completely crushed against the concrete pillar, with thick white smoke pouring from the engine.
The heavy bulletproof glass was severely spider-webbed, but it had miraculously remained intact.
Dozens of police officers surrounded the wrecked vehicle with their weapons drawn and aimed at the doors.
I jumped out of the command SUV, desperately praying that Thomas had survived the brutal impact.
The driver-side door groaned loudly before it was violently kicked open from the inside.
Thomas stumbled out onto the pavement, bleeding heavily from a cut on his forehead, but he was completely alive.
Two officers quickly rushed forward and pulled the brave driver to safety behind a squad car.
The passenger-side door remained firmly shut, heavily jammed against the concrete barrier.
Suddenly, the rear door of the crushed vehicle slowly popped open.
Garrick crawled out of the wreckage, coughing violently as the deployment dust from the airbags filled his lungs.
His expensive suit was completely ruined, and his face was covered in deep scratches and bruises.
He stubbornly refused to raise his hands in surrender, glaring at the surrounding police officers with pure hatred.
He stumbled forward, desperately reaching for the weapon he had dropped inside the car.
Commissioner Fletcher did not hesitate for a single second.
He fired a single rubber tactical round directly into Garrick's kneecap.
Garrick screamed in absolute agony and collapsed instantly onto the wet pavement.
Five officers aggressively pinned him to the ground, securing his wrists tightly in heavy steel handcuffs.
The nightmare of Garrick Ashford was finally, permanently over.
I hugged Sienna tightly, crying tears of sheer relief as we watched the monster being dragged into a police transport van.

But as the paramedics arrived to check Sienna's injured arm, the lead medic examined her extremely pale face.
The medic quickly shined a small light into Sienna's eyes and noticed something absolutely terrifying.
