The seemingly deserted hangar suddenly came to life¸ but Joe Gear was ready. From his right¸ where Rover Jaxon had disappeared¸ half a dozen black-clad SRID agents sprang into action¸ leaping from crate to crate¸ guns blazing for a second before they ducked behind steel containers. Bullets ricocheted off heavy pipes and bounced off Joe's armor while he lifted his heavy assault rifles - one in each hand - towards the killers. No need for cover¸ he was the hero¸ the man of the hour¸ the epitome of virility! He pulled the triggers¸ gritting his teeth and frowning angrily at those annoying swats. His rifles vomited streams of hot lead through flaming nozzles. A bead of sweat trickled around his brow¸ then down his chiseled chin. This was good¸ very good! His targets were being mowed down like hapless hoppers¸ clutching dramatically at their wounds or somersaulting backwards before dying on the floor. Joe Gear let out an angry bellow as the last of the Southern agent died a gruesome death. He lifted his guns up¸ striking a heroic pose. Some smoke gently spiraled up from the overheated barrels¸ the peaceful moment contrasting sharply with the previous scene. Joe knew his prey had had enough time to escape.
"You can run for now¸ Rover Jaxon!" Gear shouted. "I'll come back..."
"CUT! CUT!" Phil Bull cried over the megaphone. Suddenly¸ the filming crew froze and Joe Gear once more became Piotr Wellet¸ mild-mannered action movie actor. Bull strode angrily towards the actor¸ waving think ream of paper - the Script.
"It's 'I'll be back'¸ Piotr¸ not 'I'll come back!"
