<div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/8/8a/Sarah.jpg)</div>She watched him approach and moved to lift her gun again but the barrel of his own was pointing right at her. This was maddening, all this time and she was going to get gunned down on the street by some stranger. If it had been by the hand of one of the Castle brothers she would not have minded so much but this humiliation after everything she had been through left her raw.<br/><br/>The humiliation was short lived, as she jumped from shock. The sound of one, two, three shots ringing out and the man before her falling down. His head a mess and blood oozing about the place. She stood there rigid with shock not even seeing the face of the man who had shot him, simply staring at the prone body and disbelieving that she was still alive.<br/><br/>Sarah wanted to pinch herself, she didn't believe in any god not after what she had been through, instead she deemed herself extremely lucky. Two words were spoken and slowly she lifted her head to look up at the man towering close to her.<br/><strong>"Yes ... I think..."</strong>she warbled, clutching her arm as the pain registered again. Shock had a funny way of dealing with any situation, "<strong>Ow!" </strong><br/><br/>She hissed through gritted teeth moving her hand away to look at the blood coating her palm.<br/><strong>"I got hit."</strong><br/>Again she looked up at him, her hat still covered the most of her face but her warm voice, the sound that could keep a man from straying far, seemed to caress the air between them. It was a voice not very dissimilar to her sisters.
