Countdown - A Little Drabble Do Ya 8/28

On a technical note... Word includes the numbers count in the total, so I did as well.

17…16…15…
The timer was counting down faster than Napoleon could unfasten the ropes that held his partner.
“Just go, Napoleon! Take the microdot and get out of here.”
That did little to slow down Solo’s efforts.
14…13…12…
“You’re coming with me, you stubborn Bolshevik.  I’ll get this…”
11…10…9…
The fibers gave way, shredding like straw as Illya tore at them in his haste to get away from the bomb.
8…7…6…
Out the door and down the hall they ran as though being chased by the devil.
5..4..3..
There was a door leading outside.  No one stood in the way.
2..1..
