章 62: Bounty Hunters (2)

The newbies didn't need the order yelled twice. One look at the coming horde filled them with dread and they tore right through the cover of trees to get on their horses and gallop as far away as possible. 

Tony's horse whinnied as it pranced about in place for a while but remained steady and allowed its rider to face the oncoming attackers. 

All of Tony's fired shots missed and as the Bounty hunters got closer, Henry, now turned as well did a quick count,

"Twenty… Twenty-Five," he said with gritted teeth. 

"They banded together," Tony said as he put his revolver in his holster. He had fired all its bullets and they had all missed so while enduring the pain in his shoulder, he raised his rifle to try for better aim. 

The Bounty Hunters broke into two groups. One group continued to charge forward while the other tore into the trees by the roadside with clear intentions to get the newbies who had only just gotten on their horse's backs.
