I tucked the money in my pocket and walked out the back of the Chinese restaurant, broke the guys key off in the lock and threw the rest of the hunk in a dumpster, registering a jangly thud in the empty bottom. The alley stretched away like an oblong box, ending in a shaft of yellow foggy light cut in half by a brick corner. The lamp poked its head out as I approached, making a buzzing noise. A car splashed past making an oily rainbow arc in the flat of a puddle, coming to a red halt in all its steamy glory. The light glared down on it indifferently, exposing it to be a long blue thing with a white top.
It spuuuuzzzzzed away not gripping the wet blacktop, until it caught the edge of the corner and barked over it in a big crazy hop, and catching metal and throwing sparks on the down side. A pack of wild haired bitches inside immediately erupted in a chorus of vulgarities at the tony looking guy chimping the wheel, one of them dragging out the word asssshole above the din. The brake lights came on and rocked it around, and somehow the trunk popped open like a big mouth in surprise.
The guy jumped out and slammed the huge Detroit door, calling the rest of the occupants crack whores which echoed back from the canyon of the interior as a big fuck you. He asked me if I believed this shit as I walked past, to which I replied "No", and punched him in the side of the neck and threw him in the trunk.
I got in, and the interior light revealed them to be sufficient, one of them gripping a bottle and the Mick was wailing about shelter. They all looked a bit surprised at first, but took it in stride. The one up front asked where we were going, and I said Mexico. They were okay with that, and we rolled off into the wet and shiny night.
