I'm new to Fan Fiction so please be nice in your comments,

I do not own heartland or any of its characters, this is just an alternate ending to one of my favorite episodes. Enjoy...

I really hope you like my version. :)

"I'm just looking for my laptop, I'm not looking for trouble" Jeremy held the shotgun level to Ty's chest, his hands were slightly shaking as he watched Ty intently.

Ty took a step back, Jeremy had taken him off guard, he had not expected him to be in his trailer let along be pointing a shot gun at him.

"huh, well, you got a funny way of not looking for trouble" Ty said, raising his hand slightly to show he was no threat.

"Hand, it over" Jeremy signed, his patience wearing thin,

Ty stood his ground, his mind going into defense mode, trying to see a safe way out of this encounter.

Jeremy sensed his indecision and grew tired of waiting, he pushed forward gun barrel raised to Ty's head and yelled "I'm not kidding around!"

Ty's heart jumped slightly as Jeremys threat became more apparent, he raised both his hands and backed away slowing towards the table and chairs in the trailer.

"alright, relax, ok, just relax, it's in my bag"

Ty motioned to his back pack on the chair where he had left it when he entered the trailer.

Jeremy watched Ty intently, and motioned with the gun for him to get it.

Ty could feel his heart beating though his leatherjacket, this was getting out of hand, he knew Jeremy was unpredictable but he never realized how far he was willing to go.

Ty nodded slowing and turned to go to his back pack, watching Jeremy as he removed the laptop and held it in his hands.

"put it on the counter "Jeremy demanded leveling the gun,

Ty obliged and slowing placed the laptop on the counter next to him, again raising his hands, open palmed showing he was not threat to the already unstable Jeremy.

"now sit down" He said motioning to the recliner chair with the gun barrel.

Ty watched him closely, trying to read where this was going.

"sit-down!" Jeremy yelled, making Ty jump slightly, Jeremy pushed forward again, motioning to the chair with more force.

Ty swallowed hard, and backed himself towards the chair, keeping his eyes on the gun barrel pointed at him.

Slowly he lowered himself into the recliner, his mind was racing, he was now trapped into a corner, with no escape.

Jeremys expression relaxed slightly as he saw the concern on Tys face, he even managed a mocking smile as he moved forward, still pointing the gun at Ty, and positioned himself, back to the trailer door. "you know Cass told me some stories about your step dad and all the time you spent in juvi, I swear I could hear the violins, "He smiled, seeing Tys obvious discomfort over him mentioning his step dad.

"watch it man" Ty warned, he didn't have the advantage in this situation, but he wasn't about to sit there and take that from Jeremy.

"All I'm saying is your standing real close to the edge, don't make me push you" Jeremy picked up the laptop and turned the trailers door handle allowing the door to swing open to the cold night air.

"oh, and um, thanks for the beer" He smirked, taking a step out of the trailer, watching Ty sitting in the chair.

"wait" Ty said calmly, feeling brave,

Jeremy raised the gun up at him again,

"what?"

TY swallowed hard, he couldn't just let him leave, he couldn't just let him get away with killing Buckingham, he had to do something, he had to understand why.

"when you stuck that needle in your horse," he said calmly" "did you feel anything at all?"

Jeremys smug expression changed. And as Ty noticed this he instantly regretted the words he just said.

"Now you've gone and left me in a rather bad predicament" Jeremy replied, his eyes cold as the night air. He was still standing in the doorway to the trailer, laptop under his arm, shotgun aimed at Tys chest.

Ty sat deadly still, not understanding what he meant.

"you said yesterday it was only a matter of time "he rolled his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking what to do next, "if you figured it out, any fool could…"

Tys realization as to what Jeremy was thinking about suddenly became clear

"it's not too late Jeremy, "he said softly "you can fix this", He could see that Jeremy was considering his options, this was Ty chance to try and swing this bad situation into his favor.

"it doesn't have to….." he started but his words stopped as he watched the indecision on Jeremys face turn cold and calculating.

Jeremys eyes scanned the trailer, stopping at Tys bag still sitting on the seat.

"your keys in your bag?" he asked shortly

Ty didn't respond, he was confused as to what he was planning,

"KEYS! " Jeremy yelled, lifting the gun barrel slightly.

"no… on the table, "Ty stammered, slowly pointing to the keys that lay next to his phone.

Jeremy smiled and grabbed the truck keys and Tys mobile,

"get up "he said, stepping slightly back into the trailer. Placing the laptop on the chair next to Tys bag,

Ty complied, and slowing stood up from the chair, hands still raised.

Jeremy slowly backed out the door, never letting the gun barrel leave Tys chest.

"outside, now, slowly "he said, he motioned to Tys hands to keep them up.

Ty slowly stepped forward, past the table and towards the door, his heart was racing, as he stepped onto the porch. The cold night air hit his face.

Jeremy stood a few meters in front of him. And slowly circled around behind him.

"move... "he motioned towards Tys truck,

TY stepped forward, and slowly walked towards the truck, His eyes never leaving Jeremys.

Jeremy reached through the door of the trailer and grabbed the laptop, always keeping Ty in his sights, once he had the laptop under his arm he moved back towards TY, who was now standing at the truck waiting for Jeremys next instruction.

"other side, "he finally said pointing to the passenger's side door.

"man, I won't say anything, you can take the truck, "Ty said shakily. The cold air leaving a steam trail from his breath as he spoke.

"that's the problem Ty, "Jeremy sighed" I just don't believe you, "he slowly walked up behind Ty until the gun barrels were up against Tys spine.

Ty tensed as he felt the pressure on his back. He stood perfectly still, afraid that any movement would cause Jeremy to react.

"The way I see it is, that the only way I'm getting out of this is to make sure I have a head start "Jeremy leaned in to Tys ear and said coolly,

"open the door"

Ty obliged and pulled the passenger door open on his truck. He could still feel the gun barrels in his back when Jeremy nudged him to get in.

Ty stepped up and slowly got into the seat, turning to sit down.

He hadn't been able to see Jeremys face for a while as he had been behind him, but as he took his seat he turned to look him in the eyes again.

"good man," Jeremy sneered and with one quick movement spun the shot gun around in his hands, planting the butt quickly into Ty s temple.

Tys vision went first, there was searing pain and a flash of light then darkness as he slumped down onto the seat unconscious.
