Someone harshly knocked on my bedroom door, jarring me awake. I placed my guitar in my guitar stand and quickly walked up to the door, opening it to reveal Kim.

"Deputy. We got a report that Nick is being held captive at a Highwaymen camp near the old water plant. He's being coerced to repair the Highwaymen's vehicles." Kim explained to me, worry filling her voice.

"I'll bring Carmina and Sam with me. I'm gonna get right on it and I'll bring him here in one piece. Don't you worry about that, Kim. I'm ready to go, now." I nodded, retrieving my custom ruby red revolver and putting it in its designated holster. My hunting knife was already in its holster on my left thigh. Chucking my backpack around my shoulders, I headed towards the door.

Kim was still in the doorway, "Axl..."

"What?"

There was a long pause before she spoke again. "They think that they spotted John there too. I don't know about-"

"I'm leaving right now. Tell Sam and Carmina." I interrupted Kim as she stepped aside to let me walk downstairs; I sprinted toward the gates. "OPEN THE GATES!"

"Axl? Where are you going?" Faith asked as I turned around; she had a bunch of flowers in her hands and always had a huge, bright smile on her face.

Quickly, I went up to her placing my hands on her shoulders, "Someone said they spotted John and Nick Rye at the um- the old water plant. I'm going to go rescue them with Sam and Carmina."

"Be safe, Gift. I hope Jacob's there too."

I was a tad stunned at the old nickname, but I nodded, turning around as I ran out the now opened gates.

Carmina and Sam was already on the ATV waiting for me.

"Hop on." Sam ushered me over with his hand.

"Scoot." I got in-between my two friends.

"Someone's a little grouchy."

"Gas it, Carmina." I ordered Carmina, not in the mood to play around.

"On it." She replied, the ATV lurching forward.

After we got remotely close, I made Carmina park the four-wheeler when the old plant was in sight. Hopping off the ATV, I got out my pair of binoculars, scanning the area.

Fuck this. Fuck my life.

I sprinted toward the old water plant; wrath consuming me and controlling my body. Unholstering my revolver, I shot at the first Highwayman in sight. Hopefully, Sam and Carmina was following behind me just in case anything happened. After slaughtering every single Highwayman with the help of Sam and Carmina, I spotted Nick and John.

Walking toward Nick, I hugged him. "I've missed you, Nick." I pulled away; Nick had gray hair and some wrinkles.

"Holy shit... That was unbelievable. Thank you. Thank you so damn much. You don't understand, Dep. I've been trapped here for months. The Highwaymen dragged me out to this camp and had me working on stuff for the Twins. C'mon, let's get movin' before more of those sons o' bitches show up. I need to get back home! I can ride with Carmina." Nick smiled real wide as he went up to Carmina and hugged his daughter.

Turning around, I ran up to the youngest Seed brother, hugging him as tight as I could. "Motherfucker... You've gotten old, John." I pulled away, taking a good look at him. "I thought I'd never see the day YOU, the John Seed, have gray fucking hair."
