Vandalism

Ramon ran away from the policemen. There were a few alleys he could dive into and hide in, but he knew that he needed to find some kind of advantage if he was going to save Junnosuke. He grabbed at his revolver and counted out how many bullets he had in his pouch. 
     "Fourteen... More than I thought I had." He dove between two alleys, and the sound of gunfire echoed behind him immediately after. 
     He looked around. There were a few dumpsters and the buildings weren't too tall, so he might have been able to get to the rooftops. He considered how likely it was that they'd have snipers. He reasoned that, since the snipers hadn't been the ones to shoot him, there weren't any. He climbed atop one of the dumpsters and jumped onto the rooftop as he heard several officers reach the alley below him. 
     He didn't look back as he crouched low on the rooftop and clutched his revolver. There weren't any nearby buildings he could escape to without being shot at, and though there was a walkway over the bridge, four policemen were stationed on it. His grip on his revolver tightened as he peered over the edge of the roof. He ducked back down as bullets flew overhead from the officers. They knew exactly where he was. He looked behind himself, but none of the police officers from the alley had climbed up to meet him. He kept his revolver close at hand. 
     The man in the white suit called out for her. 
     Within seconds, she was at his side. The policemen nearby all took a step back out of fear. She looked at him with admiration. 
     "Did I do well? I found him, like you told me to!"
     The man in the white suit nodded and smiled at her. 
     Her heart fluttered when he smiled; she knew that he barely ever did that, and she took great pleasure in knowing that she was the reason he was smiling. 
     "Officer Hiroto, tell your men to stand down."
     The lead police officer turned to the man in the white suit with a look of confusion.
     "Handler Konto, this man is a wanted criminal. That thing," he pointed at the girl, "was only brought here to find him and aid us in capturing the boy. Your role in this investigation is ended."
     Kanto removed his sunglasses to reveal a pair of wild, swirling red eyes. 
     "My part in this investigation only ends when I am expressly told by the head of the Tokyo Twister Research Department to leave. Until Director Oyama calls me directly and tells me to return to headquarters, I am to be considered part of this investigation." 
     Officer Hiroto flinched when Kanto looked at him. He hated that the government was entrusting those things to watch over each other. It was irresponsible and dangerous, in his opinion, but he didn't dare disrespect the thing standing in front of him.
     "Fall back! Handler Konto has ordered it." He commanded the other officers. 
     The other policemen turned towards Officer Hiroto with confused expressions, but did as he commanded. Once they had all withdrawn and formed a tight circle around the white van containing the boy, Kanto put his sunglasses back on and looked at the girl.
     "I need you to kill that man you found earlier." He pointed at the rooftop where the Twisthunter was hiding. "He's currently on top of that roof. Bring me his severed head, and I'll go on a walk with you after you've eaten your yakisoba tonight."
     Her eyes lit up. 
     "Yes sir! I'll do it! I'll kill him right now!"
     Officer Hiroto thought it was beastly, asking for the man's head, but he didn't say anything. By the time he blinked, the girl had disappeared. 
     She was already behind the man. It had taken her mere seconds to reach him, and he was so slow. She could see him moving his head towards her as if he were slowed by thick honey. His right hand was on the roof, making his stance a three-point crouch. His left arm was clutching at his stomach, but since he was crouching, she couldn't see what he was holding. She lunged at his head with both her hands and imagined how easily it would tear off his shoulders if she went at full speed. 
     She didn't see his left hand holding his revolver, and she didn't see it firing until the bullet had already passed through his lower left abdomen, out of his body, and into her stomach. 
     Time came rushing back to her. Clouds were moving; the sun was shining; wind was whistling. She could hear the echoes of a gunshot, and she clutched at her stomach with both hands. It burned. Everything burned. It felt like something was inside her, eating her alive. She screamed.
     Ramon had heard that scream before. 
     Every Twister he'd shot with silver had screamed like that. The silver would superheat and burn away the impurities caused by Twist, which in the case of Twisters, was practically every part of their body. 
     She screamed and started clawing at her stomach. She needed to get it out; it hurt so much that she couldn't think of anything else. It burned. 
     Officer Hiroto and the rest of the policemen responded to her scream by rushing forward to see what had happened.
     Handler Kanto was still as she screamed. He was disappointed that she'd been injured so badly. He had invested so much time and effort into her, and yet in her first actual combat encounter, she'd been neutralized within seconds. 
     Ramon looked down at her while she writhed on the ground, scratching at the hole in her stomach as it bled out. He held a hand over his abdomen, and he could hear the policemen rushing towards him. He had more bullets.
     He couldn't do it.
     He waited until most of the police officers were at the base of the building, and there were only five or six left on the ground waiting around the white van. His odds were still slim, but they were better than him trying to get past twenty-eight officers with guns pointed at him. He climbed over the roof and leapt to the next one. The police officers who had raced towards the building were too close to shoot at him, and the ones who had stayed near the white van, while trained, weren't able to hit him. He ran across the rooftops as the entire police force mobilized and moved towards a position where it could shoot at him. 
     He jumped down to ground level next to an empty metal trash can. He kicked it in front of himself and ran behind it. It didn't go very far, but it caused enough ruckus that the five policemen who were between him and the van shot at it instead of him. Since he was behind it, the police officers who had run towards the building didn't have a clear shot on him. 
     It went far enough that he could lunge behind the white van and began shooting at the five officers who had stayed near it. With five shots in his revolver, he wounded each of them in their hands. 
     They fell to the ground immediately, and when the man inside the white van stepped out and tried to shoot at him, he intercepted him with a punch in the face and a toss over the shoulder. he leapt into the van and slammed it out of park and into drive. 
     He could hear the sound of bullets slamming into the truck, but he didn't care. The sound of air rushing out of the truck's tires was much more concerning, and when the tires started grinding audibly, he prayed that they would hold up long enough to get him across the bridge and a little ways away. 
     They did, but the police and their fully functional cars were right behind him. The van lurched across the bridge despite him slamming on the gas as hard as he could. Once it was nearly across, Ramon jerked the wheel all the way to the right and forced the van to tumble. As it did, he made himself go limp as best he could.
     Officer Hiroto had never encountered a criminal quite as reckless as the Twisthunter. He watched as the van tumbled over itself and blocked the exit of the bridge. By the time the police had all gotten out of their cars and started firing at the Twisthunter again, he had already managed to drag the kid, battered and bleeding out from the back of the van and started running away again. He ordered his policemen to chase the man on foot, but even as they did, he knew that all they were really doing was waiting for the criminal to croak.
     Handler Kanto stepped up next to Officer Hiroto.
     "That criminal is impressive."
