"I know how to use a gun," Acuntae replied plainly, "Just don't like to use it."
"Then you aren't using it right," Donny replied.
Acuntae wanted to grab Aldo's gun and blow Donny's head clean off to show how well she could use a gun. But instead she ignored him and then hurried to kids along.
"I can show you," Donny offered.
"Why would you want to do that?" Acuntae asked.
"You carry around a fucking bow!"
"And you carry around a fucking bat!"
Donny saw that Acuntae did have a point but a bat was more cooler and more brutal than a flimsy bow.
"Plus," Acuntae added, "I don't see a gun snapped to your side either."
Donny frowned but didn't answer her since he didn't want to give her the satisfaction that she was right.
"You use knives and a bow," Donny said, "Not the greatest of combinations."
"And you guys use guns and heavy knives."
"Scalping knives!" Aldo shouted at her angrily.
Acuntae turned and shouted back ,"Ain't such a thing boss!" She turned back to face Donny and added, "You guys seem too busy anyway, what the hell do you want to tag along for?"
"Like Aldo told you," Donny said, "To scalp some Nazis."
Acuntae narrowed her eyes not totally trusting the man beside her but didn't reply.
They continued to walk through the forest until they came across a small clearing. Shots were going off and a maniac of laughter followed.
"What the fuck is that?"
The Basterds moved forward more quickly and took out their guns while Acuntae pushed the kids into hiding.
"Stay," she whispered and then was ready to notch her bow when she felt something cold and hard slide into her hand. She turned to see Donny placing a gun into her right hand and he grinned, "Let's see how well you shoot."
Acuntae didn't have time for games, she grabbed the gun and then opened the holder to check how many bullets she had. It was full. She snapped it shut and then unlocked the safety and raised it shoulder height.
"Hold," Aldo commanded. Acuntae ignored him and then fired once. The gun gave a loud crack and then something fell to the ground only five seconds after.
"Dammit Girly!" Aldo shouted angrily.
Acuntae continued to ignored the American as she raised the gun once more, prepared to shoot again if necessary. There was a long silence and then a loud shriek ran through the forest. Immediately Acuntae ran down the forest path with a stream of Aldo's curses right behind her.
"Go!" Aldo shouted to the Basterds. Without any hesitation The Basterds all got up and then ran after the insane female. Acuntae shot again and then another thing fell dead to the ground. She leapt over the fallen tree gracefully with the momentum of her power and then came to where the shriek had been sounded.
"Don't move!" a voice cried, the accent was thick and the English was almost un-audible.
Acuntae turned to see a young German soldier with a woman in rags kneeling on the ground with her hands on her head. The woman's eyes were filled with fear and pain and beside her was a dead man Acuntae took as her husband. Acuntae looked at the young soldier and studied him for a while.
"Acuntae!" The female never took her eyes off the soldier as the Basterds came up to her.
"Holy fuck!" Donny said looking at the two dead German soldiers that littered the ground, "You can shoot after all."
"Shut up Donny," Acuntae said.
"We got this," Aldo said firmly as he saw the soldier with the gun against the woman's head.
"He ain't gunna shoot," Acuntae said plainly.
Aldo stopped and Donny asked, "How do you know?"
"Easy, his eyes are giving it away as well how he shifts his feet in the other direction. He wants to bail as fast as he can. Too chickenshit to shoot."
Aldo stepped forward and said, "You heard of us boy?"
The soldier cringed slightly but still held the barrel against the woman's head. He didn't give Aldo a reply. Utivich took his knife out of it's case and said, "Does this give you a hint?"
The young soldier nodded ever so slightly.
"Drop the gun," Acuntae said, "You can't shoot."
To everyone's surprise the soldier did in fact drop the gun and stepped back. The woman immediately got out of execution position and flung herself over her dead husbands body.
"Kill him," Aldo ordered.
"Don't!" Acuntae said stepping in the way of Hugo's gun. She walked up to the boy and then placed her hand on the back of his neck. Before anyone could do anything the boy's neck jerked to the side and the young soldier fell dead immediately.
"What the fuck was that?" Donny asked.
"Mercy killing." Acuntae walked away from the body and was ready to go back to where the kids were hiding when Aldo grabbed her wrist and whipped her around.
"Mercy killing?" he cried, "To these...these murderers?"
"And what exactly makes you think you are so better?" Acuntae growled, her voice filled with darkness and dislike, "Every minute we fight is a minute we loose intelligence."
"What?"
"Of course you wouldn't understand."
Acuntae ripped her wrist out of Aldo's grip and then marched up the hill ignoring the Basterds completely.
