------------------------
Nikki woke up, quickly realizing she was face down on the cold cement floor. The coppery smell of blood filled the air and made her wince as the scent filled her nostrils.
She couldn't move. Her head felt like a jackhammer was chipping away at her brain so she closed her eyes and remained still for a few more minutes.
Rolling onto her back, she groaned as she slowly opened her eyes. Staring up at the ceiling, she noticed the dirt and grime...even some spattered blood.
Her head rolled to the side and her breath caught in her lungs as she took in the sight of Nora propped up against the wall, her head slumped to the side, her usually olive tinted skin now pale....and then there was the blood. Lots of it. On her, on the floor, on the walls...everywhere. And just above her head was "I am a dirty cop pig" written in blood, now dried in a sickening shade of maroonish brown.
"Oh God, they know she's a cop," Nikki thought to herself as she read the words, not recalling when or how Nora's cover was blown.
Nikki ignored the pain in her head and crawled over to Nora's side, checking her pulse only to find a weak one. "Nora? Nora, can you hear me?" Cupping her face gently, she felt nauseous as she took in all the bruises, especially the large one under Nora's right eye that was accentuated by a weeping cut. Then there were the multiple stab wounds all over her lover's body, some still leaking fresh blood. She started to count them but stopped after six.
Nora was unresponsive, not even so much as a whimper.
Nikki began to panic, her thoughts racing as she tried to figure out what had happened. Thank God for adrenaline because it was the only thing allowing her to function.
Clutching Nora tightly, she began to sob, rocking back and forth and she stroked Nora's hair. "I'm so sorry I got you into this. This is all my fault."
Nora remained frighteningly still.
"I should have just taken care of this myself and left you out of it. I can't believe they did this to you." Nikki kissed the top of Nora's head, completely unaware that some of the wounds were caused by her own hand. Even worse, she witnessed and cheered on the torture inflicted upon her lover. "I need to get you out of here. Nora? Can you hear me, baby?" Nikki checked her pulse again and it felt like it was getting weaker by the moment. She knew she was running out of time.
Nikki gently moved away from her and ran to the door. Opening it slowly, she peered down the hallway and found it empty. Returning to Nora's side, she hooked her arms under Nora's armpits and began dragging her towards the door. A slight moan came from Nora and the obvious pain became etched on her face. "Shhh, it's okay. I'm getting you out of here. Hold on."
She managed to get outside and get Nora into the car, lying her down in the backseat. Shutting the door, she turned and Blade was standing on top of her.
"What do you think you're doing?"
"I...I'm dumping her. She's no good to us if she's dead and she's about an hour away from dead." Nikki nearly choked on her own words. "I have a place where no one will find her."
Blade placed a hand on the car, trapping Nikki where she stood. "I don't believe you."
"What?"
"It doesn't make sense," he said as he leaned closer to her, poking her in the chin with his index finger. "Last night you watched me beat the snuff out of her and then you had your turn - stabbing her with my Switchblade. I think at one point you said something about 'this pig cop needs to die.' So why are you not letting that happen so we can watch?"
Nikki almost threw up hearing him tell her things she had no memory of, but she had to stay in character. "I thought more about it last night and I think this is what we need to do. I'm not going down because of a lousy dead cop, so I'm cleaning this up before this comes back to bite us both in the ass."
Blade grabbed her wrist, "You're not going anywhere."
