It had been a week since that man showed up at her front porch and told them to leave. Taegan was having a hard time keeping up with the fields. Without her father to help she was losing a lot of the crop, which mean that her mother and her wouldn't make it through winter at this rate. Taegan frowned as she felt the wilting leaves of her crop. A few minutes after she threw her hands in the air Taegan heard shots fire. Immediately she dropped to the ground and began to scan the horizon. Looking to her right she saw the same black cars. They were outside the house again and this time they were all locked and loaded. "Mother!" She whispered to herself as she crawled towards her horse. She would have to get to the back of the house so she wouldn't be seen and she didn't have much time. "Come on out, ladies! We won't harm you if you come out willingly!" The man shouted. "Don't come out mother, don't come out!" Taegan thought to herself as she mounted Shindeagan. Kicking her horse in its' sides she rushed off. Nearing the house she saw her mother come out on the porch with a shotgun. "NO!!!!" Taegan whispered. "Get off my property!" Her mother held the gun up and ready to fire. The man standing before her shook his head. "Now Ma'am, we don't want to have it go this way, just put the gun down..." Her mother fired, but it missed and left a nice new look in one of the sides of the cars. Before she could say a word the men fired and Taegan watched her mother fall to the ground. Taegan's body rushed with anger and sadness at the same time. She was angry at her mother for being such a fool, but she was sad that she wasn't there to protect her. She was angry at the men for causing this and there was not one ounce of sadness towards them. She was going to take them all out. Sliding of the side of her horse she slapped its rear to send it running towards the barn. Then taking her pistol out she creeped up behind the cars. "Come on little pretty one. We know you're here." Taegan aimed at the first man's head. Firing a shot, she quickly moved to the next, he was down. The men started to panic now and look around. They began to frantically shoot in multiple directions. Taegan took the next guy out and then she aimed for her fourth. He was opening fire towards her direction, so she snuck around the back of the car to the next one. From here she had a better angle and shot, he fell to the ground with his eyes wide open. Last, but not least she had to get the guy right next to the man in charge. He seemed calm and searching the cars. Taegan picked up a rock and threw it to the other side making sure it hit the car to make noise. His eyes darted that direction and she fired. She was out of bullets, but there was only one man left, the asshole who talked too much. "Well, well, well, you little missy did a fine job cleaning up my men. I wonder where you learned to shoot?" Taegan stood up and walked towards him. He pulled his gun and she opened her arms up to let him shoot. "Oh no no, my dear. I'm not going to shoot you. You just took out a good deal of my men. Why would I want to kill such a great shot? Not to mention you have nothing left here." Taegan stared at him as her body started to shake with anger. She couldn't believe he was going to try and ask for her help. He just killed her mother and ruined their farm. "What? You thought you would last here on this farm? From the looks of it you're doing a great job. Not even going to make it through the winter. No friends, no family, you have no one to help you. Are you the kind of gal that is just going to die from starvation? From what I've seen, that answer is no." She wanted to shoot his head off right now, just take it off any way she could, but she had no options to do that with. He also had a gun which he wasn't going to fire at her. So instead she just lunged at him with all her might. He was prepared for it and took the hilt of the gun to knock her out. "Guess if you aren't willing, I'll just take you and see how you feel about it. I'll even bring your horse so you have a little gift when we arrive." |
