Foresight (19 page)
Just yards away to their left, on the other side of the parking lot fence, the night sky shone bright, almost popping with colour, bright pinks, yellows and reds scorching the black sky. 'Fireworks?!', shouted Clara, puzzled. Nick ignored her cries, slamming the brakes on the cab and turning just in time to see the helicopter carrying Boal roar to a halt, the bright lights of the greatest nightly firework show on the Las Vegas strip exploding just feet away from the chopper. They watched as Boal retreated into the main cab, the pilot clearly straining to keep the helicopter airborne, the sound of sirens and warning beeps clearly audible even from the ground. The helicopter spun and stalled in the air, the pilot managing to bring it under control to come down about 400 yards away from the cab, landing hard on a pile of parked cars, but stopping safely. Nick and Clara laughed, a boisterous, laugh-out-loud kind of laugh as they watched the scene unfold in front of them, before Clara tapped Nick firmly on the shoulder. 'Go, we need to help Robin', she yelled. Nick floored the gas pedal, the cab screaming back out of the broken barriers, out on to the main road, Boal nowhere to be seen, stranded back at the crash site. They drove quietly for about ten minutes before either of them uttered a word.
'Where are we going to go?', asked Clara. 'We can't go to a hospital'
'I know someone', said Nick, reaching back and stroking Clara's face gently with his hand.
'It's great to see you again sister'
