(( Sorry for last late posts. Work piles up quite nicely and i've been on holiday this week, visiting Berlin. Yeah the 'pulling him out the way' thing makes sense and it's something Antonio would most likely do ))

What the fuck is he doing, getting in the way of the truck? Does the guy know how these things are done? I'm starting to think it might have been better if I had done this alone...the douchebag is going to ruin the ambush!

"Get back!", I have to shout, while I quickly grab him and pull him out of the way.

"Once we confirm the plate, we just take out a few tires and wait for the dude to roll to a stop. No sweat!"

It should be as simple as he says, but... well, we'll see.

((WOW! Lucky you!!! ))

Jackie crouches down and watches carefully.

"Yup, that's our boy."

He starts to pull the glock up, then brings it back down. "Fuck me..." Hesitates and slips it back in his jacket. "No shooting yet. We've got to get this piece of shit over to the drop point. You're not going to be able to drive it with tires down, are you? You ever drive an 18 wheeler dude?" Laughing, he turns to you. "Just wait for him to stop up at that gate. It's what, only a quarter mile or so. We'll run and catch up, and as he starts to go through, we'll pull him out of the cab and jack the truck. Questions?"

"Fine, whatever you say. Let's just do this quick."

It's bad enough that I have to be here with this guy. Maybe next time I should really think before I decide to help anyone.

I'm really hoping this is worth it.

The truck slows down, as predicted, and Jackie suddenly rises indicating for you to follow. At a dead run it takes you a minute or so to catch up to the truck, which is stopped at the just now opening gate.

You both slow and creep closely against the truck's side, trying to avoid the direct view of the driver's side view mirrors.

Jackie taps you on the shoulder and hisses in your ear, "as soon as the truck just starts rolling, you open the passenger door and jump in. I'll blow it open if I have to. Then you ask the dude to get the fuck out. I'll be right behind you with some inspiration for him. Then you slide into the driver seat and start driving. Got it?"

The truck starts to roll and you quietly try the door handle. It's unlocked.
