"They've been gone for a long time" Gus said as he paced the wooden floor of the cabin.
"It's only been 5 minutes" Amanda said her usually cheery voice full of determination. "Doran knows what she's doing" Shawn nodded.
"Besides, Lassie will save her if she gets into any trouble." He sidled over to where Amanda was sitting on the arm of the couch. He leaned against the sofa as well and slyly put his hand on Amanda's shoulder. He squeezed it a little. "and I'll be here to save you" Amanda smiled
"Thanks Shawn, that means a lo-" she was cut off as something crashed. Shawn was now sitting in her lap. Gus was on the floor next to the lamp that had fallen.
"Sorry guys…." He said picking it up and putting it back in place. Shawn eased himself out of Amanda's lap.
"Be careful next time Butter McButterFingers from Buttersville" he said smoothing his hair. He looked down at Amanda "That could have been really scary if I hadn't known it would be coming"

"I don't see him at all" Lassiter whispered in Doran's ear. They'd been walking around for almost 15 minutes now.
"Me neither, we'd better get back" she said. They started heading back toward the cabin.
"Has this ever happened before?" Lassiter asked. Doran shook her head.
"Not at this cabin, it's really isolated and rarely used so that's why the agency thought it would be a good place to hide from the Flamencos Españoles gang" They reached the cabin, but before they went inside Doran spoke up. "Let's just check around the cabin one more time" she said. They followed the wall of the cabin all around.
"It's so dark, it makes hard to see anything" Lassiter complained. Doran was about the reply when she tripped over something and fell.
