Anna's eyes locked onto the market square, her heart racing with excitement. They might be able to lose themselves in the crowd.
The driver nodded, and the taxi sped towards the market square. They plunged into the crowded area, weaving through stalls and shoppers.
Anna's eyes scanned the area, looking for any sign of their pursuers. But the crowd was too dense, and they seemed to have disappeared.
Sarah's voice was barely above a whisper. "I think we've lost them."
Anna breathed a sigh of relief, but it was short-lived. The taxi's engine sputtered, and the driver cursed under his breath.
The taxi slowed to a stop, and the driver turned to them. "We're out of gas," he said.
Anna's eyes widened in alarm. They were stranded in the middle of the market square, with no way to escape.
Sarah's eyes locked onto Anna's, and Anna knew she was thinking the same thing - they had to get out of there, fast.
