The rod slammed into one of the men instantly.
He had tried to jerk backward to avoid the hit, but the metal still crashed hard against the side of his neck, twisting his head sharply to the side in a way that looked very much unnatural.
The man collapsed to the ground immediately, clutching his neck with an extremely painful expression.
For a long second, the others froze in shock as they stared at him.
Ziva nearly screamed at the sight. Without wasting another second, she grabbed Elara's wrist and pulled her forward. Elara stumbled slightly after her as they both broke into a run, desperately trying to escape before the men recovered from the shock and became even more violent.
They had barely gone far when the sky suddenly rumbled loudly above them. Only then did Elara notice how much darker the sky had become.
"Get them! Don't let those bitches escape!" One of the men yelled.
