This is sort of short but a lot happens! Enjoy!

It was still dark when Woody and Garrett made it to Springfield. Woody had pushed his unmarked police car to the limit the entire way. Few words were spoken the duration of the trip until they were about 30 minutes out.
"Woody, don't you think you should call for a little back up, you know just in case." Garret spoke gingerly knowing Woody would most likely not agree. Woody was silent for a minute, and then said coldly "that might not be a bad idea, we'll need witnesses if I had to kill him".
He then picked up his radio and requested a county sheriff for back up. It wasn't till they pulled on to the local road that a deputy sheriff's car pulled in behind them. The radio called out to Woody to tell him that they were with him as they made their way to the farm.
The sun slowly made it's way over the horizon as James paced back and forth of what used to be the living room of the old farmhouse. "I have to finish this, I have to put an end to this. I've let this go on too long….." he saw two cars coming down the long dirt road. They were going to have company in just a few minutes. James ran up the stairs and flung open the room where he had left Max and Jordan. "Ok my wonderful family its time to finish this, it's time for all of us to met are maker."
Max quickly began to speak, "James your grudge is against me not Jordan, please just leave her out of this, she wasn't even born when I gave you to the Horton's, please man have you no decency!" Jordan was speechless from what her dad had said to James, tears where streaming down her face.
"She has nothing to do with this….you are crazier than I am!" James yelled at Max. "She has everything to do with this, she had a life with my mother until YOU killed my mother for HER! You killed my mother for her! James shouted as he raised the gun from his side and pointed at Jordan.
"James NOOOO!" Max yelled. James swung around to face Max and said "this is for my mother" and shot Max….Bang!...Bang!...Bang!
"Daaaaaaaad!"
Woody, Garret, and the deputies had no more stepped out of their respective cars when they heard gun shots from the house and a woman scream immediately following.
"Jordan?"
Woody took off running toward the house with the men nearly on his heals. He broke the front door to the old house nearly off it's hinges. He then barreled up the old stair case and in to the doorway of the room where James and Jordan were.
"James drop it, drop the gun!" Woody yelled at James who was standing over Jordan with his gun aimed at her head.
James just smiled, "Goodbye sis" he nearly whispered. Jordan closed her eyes knowing that he was going to shoot her.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
I love cliffhangers!
