Dave grabbed his rifle and started to shoot towards the direction Tina had pointed at.  He fired shots and the shadow came out from behind the tree and opened fire back at them.  Tina dropped to the wet ground again and hid behind the nearest rock, shouting at Dave to do the same.  The shooter was wearing a mask and Dave couldnt see his face.

Tina:  Dave did you get him.  Did you shoot the bastard?  Kill him Dave, kill him.

Dave:  I don’t know Tina.  I could have.  I couldn’t be sure though.  He is still hiding out there.  I am going to look for him.

Tina:  No Dave.  No, you are not going up there, he might still be waiting for you.  He is armed and dangerous, besides you are hurt.  I don’t want you to risk your life.  Dont go please.

Dave:  Tina I will be alright, I told you its nothing, just a little scratch.  I want to make sure he’s gone so that we could carry on with the search for the mystery woman of yours.

Tina:  Dave I am not happy with this.  I dont want you to get killed, I cant take it Dave, I couldnt.  Please stay for a bit.

Dave:  Tina calm down.  I told you I will be very careful.  You promise me to stay hiding here, and I will be back for you very soon.  I must find the bastard and get rid of him.  Please boss stay down till I come back.  Dont go down there on your own. It’s an order, do you hear me boss?

Tina:  Ok Dave, ok.  I won’t go but hurry please. 

Dave got up trying to see if he could walk on his leg properly.  It wasn’t so bad but he was limping a bit.  He started the search again, looking back at Tina and urging her to stay down.

It was hell on earth for Tina.  She was very furious, petrified and very anxious about the woman.  She couldnt believe what was happening, and on her ranch.  Who was the shooter?  What was his connection to the woman?  Why does he want her dead?  Who was she and what has she done to deserve this?  Why here of all the places?  Why?

Tina had lots of questions on her mind and she was very puzzled.  She was also so worried for Dave and she wanted to find the woman so badly.  She wanted to see her again and help her.

Tina couldnt move and she felt irritable and annoyed.

Tina:  Shit, fuck, fuck.  I fucking hate this.  I wish I could have Mark with me, he’d know what to do.  Why did he have to die on me and leave me alone in this shit?  Why?

Tina started to cry again feeling very lonely and very frightened.  She only had Foggy for company and he was very attentive.  He came and sat next to her licking her face and hands.  Tina wanted to be home.  She wanted the safety and comfort of her home and family but she couldnt.  She wanted to see America and hug her tight, she missed her so badly, and she wanted to search and find the woman but she couldnt do that either.  Minutes passed that felt like eternity to her. She was getting more agitated and impatient.  She was thinking all kinds and she wasn’t focused, when she heard something.  She calmed her own breath and listened.  She could hear footsteps coming closer towards her and the blood drained out of her face.  She turned and saw him.

Dont move or I’ll blow your fucking head off.
