Interlude 2
Added 2025-06-16 05:39:22 +0000 UTCAbandoned in the heat of the fighting, a few fallen Agents still struggle with the pain of their wounds.
Isla, gutshot, writhes on the brick path, knowing by now that she is past saving, certain that no-one is coming.
Lola, clutching her belly, surrounded by the silent dead, hears the lull in the shooting and wonders if it means the fighting is finally over and someone will come for her.
Peppa, looking up through tear-blurred eyes at the face of the woman who shot her, hears the silence too and assumes, miserably, that all of her fellow agents are dead, and that she will soon join them.

Picture #3: Meanwhile, Lola continues writhing in pain as she continues to bleed out from the pain from her stomach wound. She noticed the gun battles have stopped for nearly 5 minutes now, so she wonders whether the shooting is all over. "Did we win? If so, would Cleona or Jenny come to find me and patch up my wounds, or at least call an ambulance?" Lola's vision is becoming to blur, she loses a lot of blood by now so it will be only a matter of time before she loses consciousness and begins to die. She then looks at the fallen FSB agent lying next to her, who by now is no longer shown any signs of life. She feels the agent's hand palm, no pulse. "She's dead!!" the short-haired M-16 agent sighs to herself. Lola reaches for the dead woman's side pocket on her long pants and finds her wallet. She opens it, not much of content: a few Pounds, and a FSB ID Card stating her name (Katya Ivanova), her birthdate (27th October 1999), and a Moscow apartment address. Then a photograph of Katya and a man - presumably her boyfriend - taken with the view of Lakhta Center, St Petersburg. Lola sees Katya not as an enemy but another fellow secret agent just doing her job for her country. "She's just trying to do her job to the best of her ability. She's gone now and it looks like I'd be joining her soon!!" as Lola's vision becomes blurrier and she finds herself more difficult to breathe.

"I'm gonna make all of you pay dearly for killing my colleagues, starting with YOU, Brit bitch!!" the Russian secret agent yells in heavily accented Slavic English. Seeing none of her MI-6 colleagues shooting the Russian or at least approaching to rescue her, Peppa assumes the worst that she's the last MI-6 agent remaining in their failed ambush of the FSB safe house. Facing the FSB agent, with her right hand clutching her wounded stomach, Peppa shouts to her enemy, "Go ahead and shoot, Russkie slut! I hope you and your colleagues will all be IN HELL soon!!"
