Exceptional Day 20 of Lockdown contest entry Somewhere To Go by DragonSkulls Day 20 writing prompt entry

Today was day twenty of lockdown and here I was, going a hundred and eight down Kennedy with four cops hot on my tail. You see, lockdown wasn't working for me. I had places to go, and no one was going to stop that from happening. The lead cop was about to try tapping my rear corner so I'd lose control. I slammed on my brake for a split second. He came up beside me and I plowed him into the gas pumps at Shell. The explosion was enormous in my rearview. The next two came tearing up on both sides of me. The passenger in the car to my left had his shotgun ready to blast me. Again, I slammed on my brakes, just before he fired. He shot out the other car's front tire and the driver lost it. He swerved to the left and creamed into the other car and they both went crash rolling in front of me. With the last cop on me, I turned at Louis and what hovered there, just past the bridge, with machine guns aimed at me? A helicopter. I gunned it and drove up the embankment. As my Mustang went airborne, it snagged a power line that snapped and flung into the rotor blades of the chopper, viciously yanking it to the ground, right on top of the last cop car. Explosion number two. I landed, raced across the bridge, screeched into the drive and ran into my baby's arms.   Writing Prompt Write a Flash Fiction (250 words.
