I stayed where I was.
“Come out, you piece of shit, or I’ll shoot your balls off when I find you!”
I didn’t move.
“Or maybe I’ll fuck the girl in front of you and make you watch,” he leered.
My blood boiled – but I knew he was baiting me.
I stayed motionless.
I heard two slow footsteps on the concrete…
Then a burst of fast ones as he rushed me.
I tried to scramble around the corner of the feed bin –
“AH!” he yelled in warning.
Shit.
I looked up to see a man in camouflage standing ten feet away, his pistol pointed at my face.
“If they weren’t paying triple for you alive, you’d be a fuckin’ dead man right now,” he snarled. “Get up.”
I slowly got to my feet.
My mind raced, trying to figure out how I could get to him before he killed me –
But I couldn’t think of a single scenario where I didn’t wind up dead.
“Hands in the air,” he ordered.
I raised them above my head.
The camouflaged man pulled a pair of handcuffs out of his jacket while he kept his gun on me. “You’re going to put these on, and you’re going to do it without any funny business, or I’m going to shoot you in the gut and make you crawl back to town. Got it?”
I nodded, defeated. “…yes.”
He was just about to toss the cuffs to me underhanded –
When a sound unlike anything I’d ever heard ripped through the air.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!”
It was a high-pitched scream of fury straight out of hell.
Lucia came striding through the doorway, a gun pointed at the man’s head –
The shotgun I’d taught her how to use.
Her eyes looked utterly demented, and her face was a mask of pure hatred.
The camouflaged man looked over in panic. He swung his gun towards her –
Too late.
