DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own Outlaw Star; though if I did own it; the series would never end

By Laguna

The white tiger stood in front of the shocked crew. She stood in a battle position. "Good grief, this isn't good." Laguna checked his shotgun for ammo, "No really, Gene. Tonight's the French holiday where Indians transform." He took the shotgun and aimed at Aisha, "Gene, get the professor and Mel out somewhere safe, NOW!" He began to pull the trigger, Aisha saw the impending danger; she lunge towards Laguna with great force, knocking him down. She slashed at his chest; Laguna has nowhere to go. He searched around the small land he is on and grabbed a large rock and slammed it against her head. Aisha backed off. Laguna took this opportunity to run towards a foot of a butte. Aisha charged after him at full speed. Laguna kicked off the side of the butte and landed behind Aisha; he quickly pulled out two revolvers and began to shoot at her. Bullets bounce off her, "WHAT!?" Laguna starred at her in shock, not knowing the true power of the Ctarl-Ctarl tribe, "I guess that means I'd better start being nice to Indians more often." Aisha turned around to see her prey; bloodlust was read through her eyes. The two charged at each other, Laguna had the two revolvers aimed at her head while Aishas claws where going for his shoulders. Both jumped at the same time at each other, in a quick instance, Laguna threw the revolvers down and slammed his shoulder into her chest area. They fell with a thud. Laguna began go for his weapons, if it doesn't hurt her, it can still be used to keep her at bay, Aisha got up and pounced on Laguna. He winced from the weight that suddenly landed on top of him. He managed to turn on his back. There was a giant smash, then a thing of shattered wood scatter around the two. Apparently, Gil took a butter churn and slammed it over Aishas head, "YOU IDIOT! RUN!" Laguna hollered, trying to avoid the sharp claws. Gil nodded and ran away as fast as he can. Old age slowed him down. Aisha jumped off Laguna and began to chase Gil. Laguna shrugged the pain away and kicked his shotgun up into the air, catching it in his arms. He aimed at Aisha and pulled the trigger. The blast made her stumble and lose footing. Aisha got back up and charged at Laguna once again. He tried to reload the shotgun, but Aisha gored him. Laguna was sent into the wall of the butte, knocked out by the blow. Aisha became groggy and transformed back to normal, "I…. waste a lot of calories…" She fell to the ground, asleep. Gene, Gil, and Melfina looked over at the two behind a boulder. The three sighed in relief, "I thought those two would never end." Gene mumbled. Melfina and Gene carried Aisha onto the horse and went after Laguna. They began to set off towards another town hours away.

Somewhere else in the desert, Jim and Hanmyo began to devour a bag of beef jerky around the campfire with the two people that saved their lives. "Sir, I didn't catch your name. Mind me asking what your names are?" Hanmyo took another bite of the jerky. The man in black placed his drink onto the ground, "Well…my name is Mark Calloway and this is my brother, Kane." Jim was shocked, "You're the Calloway Brothers? Why are you two out here?" "Well, we where after Jukai. He is wanted for destroying small towns and robbing them. You two were just lucky we came across you two." Mark took another drink. "So, what next?" Hanmyo asked. "Well," Mark took out a small map, "There is a town nearby. Maybe the local sheriff can help; we don't specialize in kidnappings." Mark snuffed the fire out and packed everything into the wagon. "Ok, Jim can you control a wagon?" "Of course, I'm a pro at that stuff." "Good, just follow me and Kane and we should be at the town in an hour or so." Jim made his way to the seats and took the long leash. He helped Hanmyo up next to him. They began to make their way to town.

In town, Gene took the horses up to the beam in front of the hotel and tied the strapping of the horses to the beam. He took Aisha and Laguna and placed them over his shoulder. Melfina and Gil already bought three rooms. Gene made his way up the stairs and kicked the doors for Laguna and Aishas room open. He threw Laguna onto one bed and Aisha on another. We walked out and shut the door, "That's the last time I ever do that; Gil, arthritis or not, you're doing it next time." He fell onto his bed, pulling the pillow over his head. Melfina sat next to Gene, she began to massage his shoulders. "So, think Jim and Hanmyo are safe?" A familiar voice hits her ears. "Of course we are ok." Melfina turned to the door to see Jim and Hanmyo standing there, "Jim…Hanmyo, glad you two are safe." She got up and went over to the two to embrace them in a hug. Gene threw the pillow aside and sat up, "Hey Jim, knew you two would make it alone out there." Mark and Kane entered the room. "WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING HERE?" Gene hollered. Jim gave Gene a blank stare, "What do you mean Gene?" Gene turned his attention to Jim, "T-those two are the Calloway Brothers!" He exclaimed. "Yeah, and they saved our lives you idiot." Gene sighed in relief, "Well…thanks," Before he said anything else, the two are already gone. Hanmyo turned her attention to Gene, "Where are the rest?" Gene coughed a bit and turned his attention to Hanmyo, "Well, Gil is already fast asleep and Laguna and Aisha are in the room to the next asleep." Jim gave him a blank stare. "They aren't doing anything of that stuff, they got into another fight and both of them are knocked out." Laguna opened his eyes slowly, he looked around to see his arms and legs tied to the bed posts, "WHAT!? WHATS THE MEANING OF THIS!?" Aisha crawled up to Laguna, "I've heard what you said Laguna." He looked nervously at her, "What do you mean Aisha?" "You know what you said, "All she needs is some good bed lovin'", so, that's what I'm going to give you." Laguna blinked for a second, "Hey! I was just joking about it.' Aisha laughed a bit, "No you weren't, I could tell you were serious." Minutes later, Gene was awoken by some springy-like sound and screaming coming from the next room. "WILL YOU TWO KEEP IT DOWN OVER THERE?!? WE NEED TO SLEEP YOU KNOW!"
