Midnight Glow: When Opportunity Clicks

Outside the blinding light eased down on your eyes, and the scene was laid bare. The New Mexico plateau was absent, red rocks and cracked ground, and it was moving. The first outlaws hadn't noticed that last little detail and tumbled as they charged out the open door. The guard might not have noticed the escape till it was too late if it weren't for the sound of those three crashing to the ground.

Honestly he was amused to start, the first guy rolled his ankle and out of spite grabbed onto the other two. And they were kicking him trying to get away. Then two of the three biggest fuckers they caught sumbled out without tripping on their own asses,

"Cletus! Karl! We got a break!"

The driver struggled to force the damn thing to a stop, but there was still a lot of weight so he had to be steady or else he was going to run over his horses. The other guard pulled back and maneuvered around the cart to the squabbling trio, the last one made a move for the cage door. He wasn't sure how it opened but if he could get it closed again that'd keep them to just those two gorillas.

If he was lucky he wouldn't need to shoot anyone. If not...
