The cool floor feels extreamly nice on my skin as the hot reys of sun beams down on me. I sit up head throbbing and back aching with Tyler and Miles lay on either side of me but Sabina is missing. My memorie is sketchy and i don't even remember passing out or even coming down the stares, the only thing i remeber is Tyler explaning to me how he knows somthing was wrong with the young girl we took in last night. I check the back of my pants to see if i have my pistol but its gone. I feel an irratation at the back of my head and of course i touch it, my fingers touch somthing sticky and wet at the back of my head and it starts to throb even more than it was before.
Miles and Tyler are still out. I check there heads for any wounds identical to mine but they are fine, a little brusing but nothing too seroius.I drag them out of the sun and then go into the kitchen to get some water, my toung is swallen and my mouth feels like i have been eating dirt. Our stuff has been moived from the small cuircle we made onto the counter neatly lined up, one, two, three packs. Sabina's pack is missing. Half of our watere is missing, most of our food and all the firearms. I check my boot and thankefully gran-maea's knife is till in the little hault in my boot. I take a swigg of my water wondering how this has happened. Trying to retrace my steps and find out who took Sabian. I hear the sound of someone waking up, panting.
I slowly walk into the room wondering who it is. I didn't even notice the blood stain the the charred concreat from where my head was. Miles sits up alearted and stressed, he looks around paniced. I go to his aid and give him the water but he pushes it away. "Miles I know your as worried about Sabina, so am i but you won't find her if you die of dehydration." He still refuses it so i place it beside him. I crouch beside Tyler trying to wake him up but he is still out cold.
"What happened?" Miles asks delusional rubbing the back of his head, he sees the blood stain on the floor next to him and he gets more on edge "Is that Sabina's blood?" he is very concerned now.
"It's mine. We must have gotten hit in the head with something. You and Tyler are fine though. I checked."I tell him about how we are missing our supplies and the weapons and such. "Your shitting me?" He grunted. We couldn't do much until Tyler woke up which was a while later, up until then we were resting. Miles attempted to stick my head up but he didn't like the idea of sticking the needle in my flesh so i'll have to either find a local town and go to the doctor or get Tyler to do it.
Tyler grumbled when he awoke, he didn't get much of a chance to recover from his overnight coma because Miles immediately jumped down Tyler's throat blaming him for everything and then Tyler being the child at heart he is started blaming Miles for everything too. So there i was in between two alfa-males watching them play the blame game. They are standing up now having a really heated conversation. I wan't to stop them but they need to sort this out or just get it out of there system, they haven't been nice to each other ever since they met up the other day ago and i can't stand this tension anymore.
"It's your fault we had to leave! It's your fault she got taken it's your fault! Every thing is your fault." Miles yells getting in Tyler's face.
"It's my fault hey? Who gave up our position? If you didn't call out she would still be here! NOT to mention how you gave up your weapons. Do you know how bad that is? At least i tried to save her." I can see Tyler is really getting Miles mad and red mad, Miles steps away rubbing his jaw and then turns around taking a swing at Tyler, but he ducks out the way and then punches Miles in the face as he turns around. They are really going at it. I stand there so annoyed. It was stupid but i got in between them trying to push them off each other. I get a glance at the floor and see small drops of blood scattered on the floor. I almost get hit by one of Tyler's punches but i lean out of the way at the last minuet. I push Tyler away with the little straight i have left, he stumbles back hitting the wall and just stands there looking at Miles. He has another blood nose and a busted lip. I give him a look 'stay still or i will hurt you!' is what the look means and he just stands there looking at me and then Miles infuriating him.
Miles goes to attack Tyler again but I stop him by placing my hand on his chest. "Stop!" I yell. My voice is strained and my vision gets blurry but i continue to talk "I get it you two hate each other and you blame each other for what has happened but we can be here all day playing the blame game and pointing the finger at each other but at the end of the day Sabina is still missing and we need to find out where she is!" I look at both of them. Miles has a cut lip also and another on his eyebrow. "No before we go anywhere we are working this shit out! We can't afforded to be hating each other and repeating what has just happened every day."We need to find her." Miles snaps back.
"I know but with you two hating each others guts it's hard to do that. We need to work together. Tyler is the only one that can track." I look at Miles "Your the only person that can full us in on what ever you know about the murder of Sabina's parent's. And I am the only one that has the map." I knew my example was weak but the thing is i have no idea what i'm good at and i desperately need to convince them that we need to be on the same page. "I know what has happened between you two isn't going to go away over night but seriously. So what Tyler joined the Rangers and got in deep shit but why do you blame him for so much Miles?""Because." He weakly snaps in an angry tone.
"That is not an answer Miles." I say in a soft tone. I have a feeling he is hiding something from me, i see it on Tyler's face too.
"You want to know why?" Miles snarls still staring at Tyler.
I nod.
"Because Tyler was the one that almost bashed Sabina half to death." I'm shocked, really shocked. My arm's and legs go numb and my eyes fill with terror. I give Tyler a desperate look and he nods looking down at his feet. My eyes go misty and i just walk up stares staring deep into space. I hear there voices.
"Don't hate me Honey. I'm sorry." Tyler cries, he grabs my arm to stop me walking but i push him off and grab my knife out.
"Don't touch me...." I almost start to cry but i hold my tears back even though the sorrow can be heard in my voice "I-I don't know you!" He has tears streaming down his face. I push him away and walk upstairs. I ignore the fact that Miles bumps past a shocked Tyler and follows me upstairs.______________
