Paul
Blood everywhere.
Slick across the bright white tiles of the bank’s floor, arced
up the equally pristine wall behind him, a warm spray across
his eyes. Paul Glenn’s boot sucked against the ground and left
a perfect red impression of its sole as he staggered back a step.
Screams and wails punctuated the air, the entire thing gone to
shit in seconds.
“What now?” he screamed at his brother.
James Glenn’s eyes were wide and white, the only part of his
face visible, the rest concealed by a thick black ski mask. But
those eyes were wild with excitement more than shock. He
looked pleased. Paul imagined his teeth bared in a manic grin
behind the wool.
“Cops’ll be here in seconds,” Deanna McKeirnan said. “We
gotta bounce. Right now.” Her face was tight with shock,
hands trembling where she gripped her shotgun, but she
remained stoic even as Paul felt his mind threatening to spiral
away.
He stood halfway between the door and the body of the old
bank guard who had tried to be a hero. Andrew, according to
one of the staff who had yelled his name as James Glenn’s
shotgun reduced his head to burger mince and blood. So much
blood.
“We have to go!” Paul said, sobs threatening his voice.
“Not until we have the money, or what the fuck is all this
for?” James spat. “Let’s move, get them to open the safe.”
Rick Dawson remained by the door, his eyes as white as
James’s, shotgun at port arms. “He’s right, man.” His voice
was level, calm, and Paul was glad of the support. Rick
seemed the only one still his normal self. Something about that
made Paul’s teeth itch.
Sirens wailed in the distance.
“We really fucked this up,” Deanna said. Kind of her to say
‘we’ when it had all been James. “Let’s go, try again another
time. Or we’ll all go down.”
“FUCK!” James’s body vibrated, rock hard in frustration.
Bank customers cowered on the floor, some sobbed, one
man’s grey pants had darkened with a wide spread of piss as
he lay spattered with the guard’s blood and brains. A stark
white shard of bone was caught in his hair. Must be the guard’s
skull, Paul thought stupidly. Tellers and staff behind the glass
had gone into shutdown, obviously someone already tripped
the alarm. Paul looked left and right, his legs twitching with a
barely suppressed urge to bolt. Should he run, leave them all
and make a break for his own safety?
No one will get hurt,
James had said. The guns will scare everyone, we’ll take the
cash and run. Small town banks have big money and little
security. They’d driven for hours from western Sydney to this
particular one, chosen after so much deliberation, if James
were to be believed. He claimed he’d studied their position,
size, number of customers, estimated their value.
