Dillan pulled back the hammer, ready for anything. What he didn't expect was a groaning red haired girl, a few years older than his daughter, her head facing the ground. Dillan stood up calmly, pointing the weapon at the new arrival. "Look," he said, "I'm not going to hurt you- but I don't know what your motives are for being here. If you tell me that you come in peace, I will give you food and shelter."<br/>Receiving no response, he repeated his statement in Russian, Mandarin, and Spanish. There was a mixing pot of people in this desert, and he had once been a college professor and christian missionary. When the girl looked up at him, he nearly dropped his pistol. Her eyes, her eyes!! They were just like his wife's... Large, beautiful- you could get lost in the pools of blue forever...<br/>He lowered his weapon as tears came to his eyes. He stepped toward this person, and quickly grabbed her in a hug.
