Baudelaire was back to running neck and neck with Loots. He could see in the passenger window and saw Koemi struggling to get free. His brow furrowed in concentration as he began timing his next move. Time was running out. Things between Koemi and Loots were imploding, but he didn’t have time to rejoice just yet.
Suddenly, they were in open traffic again. Loots weaved and Leon bobbed as they navigated the crowded street. Baudelaire was closing in. Inching closer with each move. Komie cried out his name and Leon closed the gap. He could see what she was trying to do and he was frantically waving her back into the car, “WHY, WHY IS THIS HOW YOU WANT TO ESCAPE?!”
That’s when Loots grabbed the back of her shirt. That single act of aggression changed everything. Leon slammed the throttle forward, teeth gritted as he managed to get up next to Loots. He locked eyes with Komie, “Get ready, I'm coming for you!”
His eyes darted back and forth between Loot’s car and the traffic still flowing around them. they were running out of street and the avenue they were on was surrounded by skyscrapers, even if their speeders could take to the air there wasn't enough runway left to escape the side of a building. They didn’t have much time. Leon plunged himself into the force, the preternatural power enveloping his body. Time seemed to slow, he took a hand off the wheel and leaned out the window holding it out to her.
“C’mon!” he roared over the wind whipping through his hair, “Jump, I got you!”
Loots screamed, “Bitch WHAT?! Fine you want her, HERE!”
Just like that the hand he was using to drag her back into the speeder shoved her forward.
