"Are you sure?"

"He is that's all the matters." He hesitated a moment before his friend turned, "What?"

"I don't like it. Killing David was one thing but killing a cop. That's crazy. We could get the gas chamber for that."

"It's his call. If he does and gets caught he'll get the chamber, we'll just get jail. Come on."

He followed after his friend thinking on how all of a sudden everything was spiraling out of control. First David now the thought of these lady cops. He decided right then as soon as this was done he was gone. A different part of Mexico or somewhere else no one would find him.

He sat in the plane and every now and then cast a glance over at the two ladies. He couldn't see them as cops. It didn't figure with him. Sure they asked questions, as did the bartender, but he didn't figure them as cops. And why would they send three lady cops in on a murder case? That didn't make sense either. Must of the lady cops he had ever seen where in the office or the school crossing or a few on the street handing out parking tickets, but not anything like this. Something wasn't right.

He watched in awe as one of the girls flipped in the air and dove straight down. He tucked his arms beside himself and followed after her. And it was then he notice something seriously wrong. But before he could even reach her, her friend came out of nowhere and quickly grabbed onto her.

Sabrina grabbed onto Kelly as quick as she could and tried to get them both to stop at the same time find out what was wrong. She saw the blood and feared the worst.

They were well past the safe point of pulling the cord but she didn't have a choice.

"Kelly?"

"Bri?"

"Hold on, I need to pull the cord."

"Let me go."

"Pig hells I'll let you go." Sabrina replied back shocked that her friend would even suggest it. "If I pull your cord can you land or maneuver?"

"Just do it!" Kelly yelled back as she held her hand over her wound. The next thing she knew she was shooting back up in the air but she could see the ground rushing fast.

Sabrina pulled Kelly's rip cord and then quickly pulled her own. But she knew they both would get a hard landing. In this case she was wishing for that briar patch to help break her fall.

Kelly watched as she got closer to the ground. As best she could, she tried to steer away from any trees, but with a bullet lodge in her it was heard to focus, let alone maneuver a parachute. She felt the branches breaking against her body as she felt her world turn black just as she suddenly jerked to a stop.

Sabrina watched helplessly as one of her best friends crashed through the trees to her right. She looked to the ground and prayed she remembered everything right as she hit the ground that rushed to her feet, as she tucked and rolled more times then normal. She wanted to take a second to check for anything broken but she knew Kelly needed her help now. Pushing herself off the ground she winced at the pain in her leg but pushed it back as she limped towards the trees.

Dan and Rob quickly landed and dumped their chutes in one fluid motion. Rushing towards the trees where Kelly was hanging. They both saw Sabrina rushing towards her friend as Rob quickly started to make his way up the tree as Dan yelled.

"What the fuck happened?" he yelled as Sabrina approached and started for the tree.

"I have no idea. Other then she started out of control and when I got to her she was covered in blood." Sabrina explained as she reached the bottom of the tree. She could see Rob half way up but what scared her most was Kelly hanging their lifeless.

Rob swung a leg over the branch that Kelly was hanging from and gently reached down for a pulse.

"She's still alive." He pulled out his knife which caused Sabrina to pull out her gun.

"That had better be for cutting her down Rob."

Dan and Rob both looked at her as she held the gun on both of them. Though they both knew she couldn't keep both of them covered.

"Well doll. Seems there's more to you then we thought. Or is there?" Dan took a step towards Sabrina before she took a step back and held the gun towards him. "Don't Dan."

He stopped where he was. "Well you can either shot me and Rob kills your friend up there or you shot him and I get the jump on you. Which is it going to be?"

Rob watched from his perch on though tree his large hunting knife in his hand "Nether Dan. I'm done." Rob answered from up in the tree as she slowly became to cut the straps that held Kelly to her chute in the tree.

Dan held his eyes on Sabrina, 'You're done when we say you're done Rob. You are in this all the way."

"No way. I didn't agree to any killings. Especially cops. It's over Dan." Rob reached down one last time and hung on to the harness of the parachute as he cut the last line tangled in the tree.

'Help him get her down." Sabrina ordered as she motioned Dan towards the tree.

"And if I don't?"

"I'll shot you where you stand." She glared at him almost daring him to try something.

Dan seemed to think a moment before slowly going to the tree and reached up and grabbed hold of Kelly's legs as Rob lowered her down.

Placing her on the ground Dan stood over her almost thinking of a means to escape.

"Step away from her Dan." Sabrina ordered again as she stood her ground just far enough away that if he tried anything she would still have the upper hand.

But Dan wasn't the kind of guy that gave up so easily. As he quickly drew his own hunting knife from its sheave and was about to place it near Kelly's neck but before he had a chance the sound of gun fire echoed through the trees.

He felt the pain in his shoulder as he quickly released the gun and stumbled backwards. Hold his shoulder he sent dagger glares towards Sabrina who stood still as a rock with the gun still trained on him. he knew then he didn't have a choice as he stepped away from Kelly and over near Rob. Who to his surprise grabbed him and quickly tied his hands behind his back.

"He'll kill you, you know that right?" he asked Rob as Rob shoved him on the ground near the tree.

Rob tossed his knife over near Sabrina as she bent down to her friend, and he sat beside Dan and leaned back against the tree wondering how everything got so screwed up.

"Kelly?" Sabrina placed a hand on her friend shoulder trying to wake her.

"Bri?" Kelly looked up at her friend weakly and winced with the pain.

"Hey yeah. Now who's landing in Briar patches. Wait till Kris finds out." She smiled as Kelly tried to laugh but stopped as a wave of pain shot through her.

"Just don't tell Jill."

Sabrina laughed slightly, "Deal." She turned when she heard the truck approaching where they landed. She gathered the pilot called down to the landing sight and told them what had happened as the truck and an ambulance pulled up right behind it.

Sabrina walked over to Rob and Dan and looked at them both, "Who else?"

Dan laughed as she looked up at her and said nothing.

"Who!" she asked again with more force.

Rob looked from Dan and then up to Sabrina, "Dan got a call at the airport."

"Shut up Rob." Dan shot a look at his partner.

"No Dan it's done its over I'll not let anyone else get killed." He looked up at Sabrina, "It's Bill. He told Dan he would take care of you two when you were jumping."

Sabrina looked around and wondered if their new enemy was still out there or had he gone back to town already to get to Kris.

When the police arrived Sabrina quickly told them what was going in and to have them call the office and tell Bosley to meet Kelly at the hospital.

She looked up at one of the paramedics as they loaded Kelly in the ambulance, "She going to be ok?"

"Hard to say right now she lost a lot of blood. Until she wakes up we won't know for sure. You coming?"

"No, I have to take care of something but my associate John Bosley will meet you at the hospital." She leaned down and placed a kiss on the top of Kelly's forehead. "Don't leave us Kelly."

The paramedics loaded Kelly into the back of the ambulance and closed the doors as Sabrina turned and jumped in the truck that was to meet them at the landing site. She quickly put the truck in 1st gear and took off down the road towards the bar and hopefully find Kris safe.

He watched from the shadow of the trees as they retrieved the girl from the tree she was hanging from. He watched as the other one held her gun on her enemy in front of her. he smiled at the bravery of the man who tried to take out the injured angel with his knife only to receive the pain end of a bullet in his shoulder.

He didn't smile when he saw the police and ambulance roll up and start to work on his handy work. But he did smile when he heard the panic in the paramedic's voices as she lost consciousness. He knew the tone of their voice that something was wrong. Well to him it was just right. She may be alive right now, but he knew she wouldn't be for very much longer.
