Suddenly there was furious activity at the door as a third figure came rushing out, joining the other twoThe man was shorter than his male colleague, wearing a beret and carrying a vintage omega watches briefcaseHe obviously issued orders that included the rear guard, who ran up to the pavement as the new arrival hurled his briefcase down over the brick stepsThe guard instantly clutched his weapon under his left arm and effortlessly caught the leather missile in midairNous partons!

Was it Carlos? Was it? Bourne desperately wanted to believe that it was—therefore, it was! The sound of the balenciaga replica vehicle’s curbside door slamming shut was followed rapidly by the gunning of the vehicle’s powerful engine; both were a signalThe three other guards raced from their posts to the rear doors of the vanOne by one they climbed up inside after the man in the black raincoat, their legs stretched, arms bracing shoulders, curved hands gripping the two metal frames that with instant muscular strain propelled them inside as their weapons were thrown in front of themThen a pair of hands reached out for the interior door handles— Now!

The Jackal’s van blew up, the explosion firing the dark Paris sky, and the moment it happened a brown limousine screeched around the nearest corner, the windows open, men in the black spaces, weapons in their grips, spraying the entire area with thunderous, indiscriminate fireJason lunged into the nearest recess, curling up into a fetal position in the shadows, accepting the fact—not in fear but in fury—that it might well be his last moments of bag dolce gabbana lif | | Wednesday, December 29th, 2010 | | 6:48 pm |
