While Nathan was bandaging up Mouth, Peyton looked over and noticed Lucas leaning against the tree and kneeling over breathing heavy.
"Luke you okay?" She asked him
Breathing heavy "What? Oh, yeah I'm fine. I 'm just out of shape that's all" he lied
"Are you sure?" she asked again
"Positive" he replied
After about 15 more minutes letting Mouth rest they decided they should keep walking. Mouth was leaning on Skillz and Rachel.
"Hey you alright, your wrist bothering you?" Nathan asked Haley
"No, I'm fine," Haley responded " Nathan are you sure Lucas is okay? I mean he looks really tired, and he's breathing heavy"
Nathan looked at his brother he was walking with Brooke around his arm, and in fact he was breathing deep, and he had been really tired looking, but that was normal I mean with everything they had been through, everyone was looking tired.
"He'll be fine Haley, we all just need some rest" He told her
They all looked on and all they saw was miles and miles of forest. And all they could do , was walk it.
" What are you thinking Jake?" Peyton asked him
" I'm thinking about Jenny, and how when I get home, I'm just going to hold her in my arms for days," he laughed to himself "I'm never going to want to leave her again Peyton."
" Yeah, I know what you mean, this kind of experience really makes you realize what's important in your life." she smiled at him. He pulled her in and kissed her gently as they continued walking.
They were all walking by when suddenly they saw them, the men they had escaped, however it was only three of them, the two men were ones they had seen before. However the other one they had not seen.
"That's all of them sir" the one said to the big man.
"Five beautiful girls for you to pick from" the other said to him.
The big man walked up, along with the two other ones with the guns pointed at them still. Like it was choreographed the guys all got in front of the girls.
" haha," the big man laughed. " I want that one"
He was pointing to Haley,Nathan got right in front of her.
"You don't touch her" He yelled in his face
"Which one do you want to sacrifice?" the little one said to him. "I say this one, he is already bleeding"
He was talking about Lucas, he grabbed his bullet wound and grabbed it and squeezed it hard, blood started soaking up the bandage.
"Ah!" Lucas yelled, he fell straight to the ground the pain was stinging his whole arm.
"Lucas!" Brooke went to go and help him up when the guy pushed her to the ground.
"Stay down their missy" he sneered at her.
Rachel and Peyton started to back up when the one grabbed Peyton by her hair and pulled her down as well.
"Freeze!" The big guy yelled pointing the gun at everyone. " Rangers are all over these woods, if we stay here they'll catch us."
He went and to go and grab Haley but Nathan punched him in the face and then tackled him, knocking the gun from his hand.
The other little guy went to go and shoot Nathan but Skillz punched him and Jake grabbed the gun while it was loose. He turned around quickly pointing the gun at the last guy.
"Drop it!" Jake yelled at him.
He put the gun down and Brooke grabbed it and pointed the gun at him. Meanwhile, Lucas was helping Nathan up while Jake had the gun pointing at both the big guy and the one little guy.
"You okay?" Lucas asked him
"Fine" Nathan said with a bloody lip.
"Nathan!" Haley yelled at him, she looked right at him "thank you"
"Lets get out of here." He told her.
While they were talking about what they were going to do and what they should do with the men, the didn't realize the gun right by the big guy that was now hidden by some leaves. He quickly grabbed it and grabbed Haley by her hair and pulled her in and put it to her head. Give my guys back their guns.
"Haley" Peyton whispered in disbelief
"No, please" Haley cried trying to get away
'Give them back their guns" the man said
With out any choice Brooke was about to give back the gun and then she stopped, he looked at her angrily and then pointed the gun towards her.
"Don't try anything sweetie, I'm not afraid to kill you" he said deeply
Nathan was about to tell her to do it when he noticed who she was looking at, Mouth. He was getting something out of his pocket, and he noticed Lucas looking at what was going on too.
"Fine, you want to die be my guest" he sneered
He put his finger on the trigger and was right about to pull it when they saw Mouth nod and both Lucas and Nathan charged towards him, and tackled him right before he fell the gun went off. Lucas pulled Haley away while Nathan grabbed the gun and got up. Haley got up and noticed blood on her arm and her side.
"Haley your bleeding" Bevin cried
"No, its not my blood." Haley yelled trying to wipe it off her.
"It's his" Mouth said softly. Mouth was sitting right next to the big guy on the ground, he had a knife stuck into his neck. Mouth kept the knife he was stabbed with and when Lucas and Nathan tackled him. He stuck it right in his neck.
"Is he dead?" Rachel asked.
"I don't know" Brooke said.
"No, he's dead." Mouth said abruptly "He's dead and I killed him" Mouth couldn't help it, he could feel his eyes watering up and the tears started pouring from his eyes
