It was Hank Buckner, before Marty can move to reach for his gun Hank already beaten his head with his gun that made Marty unconscious, Hank removed the gag in my mouth and untie me.
HANK BUCKNER:”Are you okay?”
ME:”Forget about me, secure Marty and call for back up.”
HANK BUCKNER:”Not until I removed you from this chair.”
ME:”Listen to me Buckner!”
HANK BUCKNER:”No! You listened to me, I don’t have my cuffs with me, if he wakes up and you’re still tied in this chair we are both going to be dead, so let me untie you and gather your strength so we can fight that bastard.”
ME:”How can you let go off me with these chains?”
HANK BUCKNER:”Keys! I need the key.”
ME:”Try his pocket.”
Hank found the key, he’s about to unlock the chains when Marty regain his consciousness, He grab Hank before I can give a warning, Marty slammed Hank on the floor and punch him in his face.
Hank fight back, they exchange punches, roll over the floor, Marty had his chance to press hard the wound on Hank’s shoulder, Hank cried out in pain, they’re inches away from Hank’s gun, Marty reach out the gun and pulled the trigger.
ME:”Oh my God! Hank! You son of a bitch you killed him!”
MARTY TALONS:”Yes I did, and you will be next, how good of Buckner to come, after I kill you I will lose you from those chains, put the gun on his hand and whoala! Buckner killed you, I’m a free man.”
ME:”You can’t get away from this, even if I’m dead I will come back and hunt you.”
Marty shoots me on my left shoulder, he deliberately missed the shot, and then he took another missed shot on my flank.
MARTY TALONS:”I hope you can keep to your promise! I will wait for your come back, SEE YAH PARTNER!”
Marty points his gun on my forehead, I closed my eyes, “this is it” I told to myself then he pulled the trigger, I heard the shot echoed in the room, two shots, I’ve waited to feel the burning sensation of the bullet in my body but there is none.
“Am I dead?” I ask myself, I felt nothing, and then suddenly someone’s body fell on me. I opened my eyes instantly, it was Marty.
“CLEAR!” I heard Pete Garrison said, then there’s Fraser, Davidson, Gray and Miller from Delta team shouting “clear” after they swept the area.
Captain Fuller take off my chains, Pete Garrison checked his partner.
PETE GARRISON:”He’s alive! I need a medic here!”
That’s the last thing I heard before my vision rotate and then collapsed.
