"I don't think you see the clear image, Mia. They are trying to kill us," he said flatly. I groaned and looked him at the eyes. We both nodded in agreement as we silently decided between the two of us.
Both of us turned at the same time and our backs met. I pointed the gun at each of the men one at a time, making sure I got the ranges right.
"Seven against two?" the man who seemed to be the leader of the party spoke.
"Seems hardly fair for you," The cockiness was back in Michael's voice, and I couldn't help, but smile.
They all scowled at us, preparing to shoot.
"Now!" I heard him say and I aimed for their heads. I pulled the trigger three times, one after the other and saw the men fall heavily to the ground and coloring the white snowy ground in red. I heard four shots from behind me, and I knew that it was over.
Both of us turned to look at each other, just to check if the other was breathless, but we both smiled as we saw each other, clearly happy to have finished the job.
