Soon they reached the charring remains of Tony's car.
"I think it should be safe to look through" Tony commented, making his way to the boot. Kate followed.
After some time they both sat back and went over what they could selvage.
"Ten unmarked tin cans; one working can opener; three pots and a frying pan; 4 bent forks, spoons and knifes; one g-string" Tony stopped there, eye brows raised at Kate. She quickly snatched the semi burnt item and rolled her eyes.
"Oh grow up!"
"And we also have our guns and five rounds" He finished, smirking.
A faint sound filled the air before Kate could reply.
"I love you. I loved you all along and I miss you. Far away for far too long…"Kate scrambled to her feet.
"Tony, that's my phone!" and he too jumped up, grabbing what they had found and then ran to the source of the sound. Kate got there first, picking up the phone from where it laid at the foot of the cliff.
"Hey it's Abs" Came Abby's cheery voice on the on the other end.
"Abby, we need help. Some basted ran Tony and I off the road and now we're lost in the mountains somewhere. SOMEONE TRIED TO KILL US!" Kate shouted, loosing it a little.
"Kate, I can't hear you properly" Came Abby's alarmed voice. The parts she had managed to pick up on were "Abby need help basted Tony I off road lost in mountain SOMEONE KILL US!"
Tony sighed, and Kate glared at him as she had another go trying to get across to Abby. That's when Tony saw them and he pulled Kate to the ground.
"Hey!" Kate snapped at him and Tony quickly put a finger to her lips and pointed to the distance.
She studied them and mouthed, "Could be rescue".
Tony shook his head and pointed again, more vigorously. Kate took a closer look and noticing a few things. They were dressed in all black and carrying handguns. One looked in the car and then stood up alert.
"No bodies" He snapped gruffly, eyeing the area.
Kate wedged the phone under an above ground root and slowly grabbed her gun as Tony did the same. Five men we're now searching the area, they were surrounded either way, with the cliff behind them. Kate looked at Tony and knew he was thinking the same thing, she gently touched his hand and at the same time they jumped up and opened fire.
The men were caught unaware, shouting out as they were hit. As soon as Kate saw a gun raised she would fire, she didn't dare stop concentrating on ducking and firing, even when she heard Tony gasp in pain and go down, she just moved in front of him, taking one man down after another. When finally she made sure all of the five men were dead, she had collected all their weapons and made her way back to Tony.
"Tony, where are you hurt?" She asked patiently, trying to sound calm.
"Shoulder" He wheezed.
She gently inspected the wound. Blood was streaming from it at a steady pace but showed some signs of clotting and slowing.
Without giving it a second thought, she ripped the bottom of her t-shirt and tied it gently and tightly over the wound.
"It's just a nick, it should stop bleeding soon" she informed him, collecting the things they had found, all the guns and the phone, placing them in a partly burnt canvases bag. She helped Tony up and headed back for the caves.
When they arrived, Kate dumped the things on to the ground inside their little cave and gently helped Tony down, he gasped in a pain a little, clenching his eyes shut. Cold sweat drenched his face.
"How you feeling?" She questioned, randomly opening a can hoping it wasn't something she'd need to cook. Peaches, she smiled.
"Let me shoot you in the arm, and…and we'll see how you feel" He grunted.
Kate rolled her eyes.
"Oh stop being such a baby… it's just a nick" She retorted.
"Want to me kiss it better?" She asked mockingly.
"Yes" He snapped sulking.
She sighed, sitting the two cans on the ground, she made her way to his arm and planted a soft kiss just below the makeshift bandage. The hairs on the back of her neck prickled as his warm breath brushed against it and she looked up to find herself face to face with him, eyes locked on to hers. He moved in towards her slowly catching her in a kiss, deep and sweet. He wrapped his good arm around her head, drew her in closer, and let himself slide down the wall, drawing Kate on top of him. Although tired muscles screamed out in disgust but soon adrenalin was pumping through his veins masking any pain he once felt, his mind totally focused on Kate.
Kate's heart was racing; her sensible mind was having trouble processing her uncharacteristic actions. Over and over again the words "Stop Kate, before it's too late!" raced faster and faster around her head but something drew her to this moment and she couldn't bring her to pull away, to stop a felling seeping through her from head to toe that made her feel alive and younger again… like the love-sick teen she once was. But suddenly something kicked in and she pulled away, letting herself slide off him.
"Sorry Tony I...I cant" She whispered, not moving from his side.
He said nothing, but wrapped him arm around her, giving a reassuring squeez. They continue to lay there, watching the sun sink behind the surrounding mountains, and for a moment they forgot they were lost in the middle of no where, rescue still far off and danger lurking in the near by shadows.
