Blackjack clung to the back swoop of the truck as it sped furiously down the highway, narrowly avoiding collision by miracles much less than inches. He turned and pressed his back flat against the truck's cargo door, his eyes falling upon the huge armada of police cars racing towards them.
"Smokey on our tail!" He shouted, banging the side of the truck to get the driver's attention and telling him to speed up.

Blackjack waited while the police started to close the distance. He wasn't worried, even though the Duke of Diamonds and his daughter were leading the convoy. They'd be able to make it out of this, most of the time they did.

He pulled his handgun from the holster underneath his coat and kept it steady in his hand. He weighed it to check if it had any rounds in it and once satisfied, he pulled back the hammer to load a round into the chamber. His free hand was in the air, directing the rear patrol car to come closer.

It was a new Mercedes, courtesy of the Four Aces but since it was new, it hadn't been lined with bulletproof metal or glass and wasn't so much prepared for a battle with the cops. For now, it was able to out-drive any cop car. Against armed officers though, it wouldn't stand a chance.

He couldn't see the driver but for all he knew, they were good enough to pull up to the rear of a truck that was over four times its size and fifty times its weight. The car came close enough for Blackjack to simply step onto the bonnet and crouch down once shots were being fired from their rear. He could even the roaring sound of chopper joining in on the chase. He leaned over and opened the door to the passenger side and he jumped onto it, using the metal to protect himself from the gunfire.

He looked at the driver who was shouting something at him but his words stopped as bullets flew through the rear windscreen pelted the driver through the car seat. The car was out of control and all that was left for him to do was jump off the car. As he landed and rolled between cars, the Merc crashed into several cars before it collided with the railing on the side of the highway, Blackjack was pretty sure the dead driver flew through the windscreen and into the sea below.

He had no choice but to take out his other handgun and fire at the cops while he waited for another car, more suited for a warzone, to pull up beside him.
 
As blackjack wanted it happened . A all black dodge charger with a knight from chess on the hood and trunk speed in his direction. The driver was known by all as the black knight. Her car had armor on it and not only that the driver had two guns installed on the sides and in the car which was a manual on the shifter that she uses to shift it into gears was a button on it for the guns. She had noticed that the black merc was gone but she also noticed that a guy had jumped out of it and needed help other wise jail time was in stored for him. So she spun the car around fast and made her way to him in hopes to stop the police cars from getting to him. she let her guns fly shooting at them and if that did not work she was going to ram them if they got to close as she made her way over to blackjack.
 
Xander of the lord of hearts decided to take his ride on a motorcycle. He had two honda cars after him with a gun in on hand and the other one the handle of the motorcycle, Xander began shooting at them on the head whenever they come out of the window to shoot.
 
Blackjack could feel the heat from the bullets as they whizzed past. He ran in the opposite direction of the truck and the police cars, seeing a familiar car with mounted machine-guns blazing its firepower at the cops while weaving towards him. He ducked behind an abandoned taxi after the driver decided to run once the shootout started. He lifted his slightly to locate the cops who dismounted their car and fired at them with his guns. He managed to hit both, one went down but the other was barely affected. He broke from cover and kept firing at the cops while the Charger made its way to him.
 
The Shadow Rider had enough and blew at least three cop cars with an explosive disk bomb. He activated the bomb and threw it, it landed on one thus exploding three. He noticed Blackjack and a very familiar car which was owned by none other than Dark Knight herself. He followed them on his motorcycle in the shadows of the broad daylight.
 
As the bullets flew by her car and some even pellet her car she knew this was getting serious. She pulled out a stick of gum and popped it in her mouth and said "time to get serious and let the fun begain". She then tossed on some sun glasses and cocked a crooked smile and put the car into third gear and picked up speed. She was now shooting some cop cars out of the way and even ramming some others as she made her way fast thou the horde right to Blackjack.
 
It took longer than he felt comfortable with because the cops were overwhelming him and closing in on his position. He was forced to crouch in the small gap between two taxis, still under fire when the Black Knight halted right by him. He stood and walked towards the car but instead of going for the passenger seat, he reached inside the car's glove compartment and pulled out the SMG that was lying there. He climbed onto the roof of the car, hoping she didn't mind.
He banged on the roof of the car while he shouted under the sound of gunfire, "Let's go! We need to catch up!" He loaded the gun and held onto the body of the car while she drove.
 
Sarah watched as he grabbed the gun from her glove compartment with out a word. when he was on the roof and banged for her to drive she gave a cocky grin he could not see and said "as you wish ". she spun the car around to facing where she needed to go to head back to the rest of the convoy and sped forward. She noticed some of the faced of the cops as it dawned on them who owned the black car with a chess knight on top. She shot cars out of her way and even hit some cop cars out of their way as well. she hoped blackjack could hang on while she did her crazy driving.
 
Shadow Rider had to pick up the pace in order to catch up, from afar he notice a few cops waiting for them where they were heading, he flopped his cellphone and called Blackjack, to warn him.
 
Of course, the car had seemingly nothing on its hood for him to hold on to. Nevertheless, he managed to stay on the roof without falling onto the road. As the drove past police cars that she hadn't already blasted through, he laid down several rounds at the driver so they could not follow them. The driver's death was the least worrying thing on Blackjack's mind at this moment. The most worrying was that there was an important public figure leading the convoy who they had to get to before the cops. He looked towards another vehicle who was riding behind them, another familiar face on their motorcycle. Xander Hall. His phone began to ring and it was none other than the Black Shadow himself.
"Xander! We need you to punch a hole through the cars so we can follow you through to the convoy!" He shouted at him through his phone, regaining his balance on the car and hanging up.
He banged on the roof some more, urging her to speed up.
 
Xander shouted back, that I can do! and Xander did just that, he punched a hole with his gun through the cars so they could follow.
 
Black knight saw the bike speed up and go in front of her and knew what he was doing. When she heard the bang on her roof to speed up she did just that. she picked up the speed pretty fast by shifting into fourth gear. she was not going one hundred miles per hour and hoped that who ever got in her way would not send blackjack off her roof. she kept the speed up following the shadow rider and she thought when the three of them go together nothing could stop them from getting to the convey. she knew she had to protect the duke and his daughter with her life.
 
Xander shouted at Blackjack and Dark knight to give them the warning. You guys! There is a whole lot of cops cars waiting at the end and I'm out of bombs!
 
Blackjack heard Xander's warning and hoped the Knight did as well. He went silent, thinking carefully about what to do. He got an idea. He moved closer to Xander so that he could hear him clearer.
"I need you to get onto the other side of the road and circle around the barricade. Do what you have to make a hole through them!" He shouted at him.
Blackjack leaned over and climbed through the open passenger window of the Charger and sat in the passenger seat.
"Drop me off just before the barricade ahead and then U-turn back. Go for a hundred yards and then go up the other side of the road to the Duke and cover the truck. I'll ride with Xander." He explained, putting the SMG back into the glove compartment and taking out his dual Berettas again.
 
"so they send all they have do they " she hit a button on her car and reloaded her machinge guns on the side and rolled down her windows and shouted "then i guess its time to send this car into death mode and show the world what dark knight means ". she rolled up her window and pushed anther button and the trunk popped open and two more guns popped out. she was loaded now with four guns and on top of that if she had to she will send out the rocket luncher but that was the last resort. The rocket luncher came out of the roof of the car behind blackjack if she was going to use she would have to tell him to get inside of the car but till then the guns would have to do. Just then blackjack was in her car and she knew what she could do. she nodded her head and said "you got it". she did as she was told sped up to just before all the horde of cops pulled the car into a fast stop and said "alright lets show the world what happens when the mess with us time to get out for me to play mean". she hit a button and a rocket launcher was now on top of her car.
 
He got out of the car and grinned once he saw the mighty rocket launchers unfold out of the roof. He started firing at the cops, trying to keep the cops from damaging the Charger too much and buying Xander some time to get around the barricade. He waited for the Knight to blow a hole in the cops, knowing the power of the awesome RPG's.
 
She looked right at Blackjack as he got out of the car and gave him one of her famous crooked grins before she sets one off. she then hit the button and watched as one missile flew out of the gun and hit right in the middle of the barricade. she watched as one car went up in flames and noticed that two and three more went up in flames. The damage was done lives was lost but all she did was reload the thing and waited for the right time to fire it off. she wanted to make sure she was not going to hit shadow rider. she did her u turn right after that rocket and was now in front of the truck with the duke and daughter.
 
Now was his chance to go around the barricade, he had a sharp turn and pushed hard to build up more speed soon after he pushed the breaks in front of Blackjack. Need a ride?
 
Blackjack smiled at Xander's wit, taking a seat behind him.
"Don't mind if I do." He said, reloading his guns after almost emptying them. "Pull up next to the convoy so we follow it home." He told him, putting the guns back in his holster.
He sat comfortably and for the first time since the whole battle started, Blackjack took a deep breath and relaxed. The police had pulled back their forces after their devastating losses and even the chopper gave up and went back. He smiled, knowing that he'd have to buy Xander and the Knight drinks after this for saving his skin.
 
Xander nodded and started up the motorcycle again. He headed towards the convoy and pulled up beside it so they could follow.
 
Knight saw the cops leave and sighed "just when the fun starts you all run away with your tails between your legs". she put the rocket luncher back into her car so that the roof was complete. The back seat was no more cause of the rocket lunchers so the charger became a two seater. She even pulled in the guns from back but left the ones on the side in case more trouble came along. she picked up speed as the convey kept on going . she was no longer in the lead but beside the head truck. she did not want people thinking she was in charge for he knew dame well the duke was.
 
The convoy eventually reached its destination which happened to be the Duke's home in preparation for a gathering he was planning in a week. But before any of that, Blackjack still had to buy the Knight and the Shadow a drink. He sat with the Dark Knight while Xander followed behind until they reached a bar they often frequented. They made their way to the bartender and Blackjack asked them what they wanted.
"So what'll be?" He started, leaning back on the counter. "The least I can do for your services today."
 
Dark knight parked the car at the bar she knew all too well. she got out and went inside after black jack. she sat down at the bar and when he asked what she wanted cause he was going to buy her a drink she said with out missing a bite "A screw driver". she loved them fruit drinks and this one had vodka in it. It was also made with orange juice.
 
Blackjack ordered their drinks, getting a simple whiskey for himself and paid the bartender. His opinion of drinking was the same as everything else, take it while you have it. He didn't mind the occasional high from narcotics but he preferred to keep his mind clear. He held his glass out to them while he made a small toast to their efforts.
"To the Four Aces." He said, smiling.
