KimRae cursed herself when the voice came from the shadows in the back. Damn me, she thought, I knew there was something there or had been. I should have looked closer.<br/>"Are you alone?" the voice whispered.<br/><br/>She looked up from her knees to see the weak light glinting from a gun. At the same time, she heard the men calling to her and making shift to come through the window. Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to look at the figure in the back and then she called louder than she normally would have,<br/><br/>"I mean no harm. This is your place. I will just leave." She held her arms out from her sides as she slowly rose from the dusty floor. Her voice rose a little louder and she hoped the men could hear her. "This building is clearly occupied. Sorry to have intruded." KimRae slowly eased toward the window. She knew that the moment she made a move through the opening that she would be a clear target for the shooter and so would either of her companions if they had not heard her warning.
