Kayla and aj have been walking for days now.

Aj:  It's impressive you are able to carry to me so far.

Kayla:  Well that training really helped my muscles so.

Aj:  Yeah.

Silents befalls the conversation.

Kayla:  What to do to pass the time?

Aj:  Well could sing songs.

Kayla:  What.  I don't sing.

Aj:  Ah come on you sing  just not in front of people.

Kayla:  Yes.

Aj:  Mmm.

Kayla:  What.

Aj: (smile). Nothing.

Kayla: Sure.

Time passes.

Aj: (starts humming a tune). Awem awep awem awep awem awep.

Kayla: (listening).

Aj:  Awem awep Awem awep Awem awep.

Kayla: (starts singing). In the jungle the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight.

Aj:  Awem awep Awem awep Awem awep.

Kayla:  In the jungle the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight.  Oooooo.

Aj:  (smiling). Thought you didn't like singing.

Kayla:  (embarrassed). Look I just knew the song you were humming ok.

Aj:  (laughing).

Kayla:  shu...shut up.

Aj:  (senses someone). Be on guard someone's coming and fast.

Kayla puts aj down and prepares to fight.

Kayla:  (flaming fist stance). How far are they?

Aj:  There here.

A dust cloud picks for a few seconds

Kayla:  (covering eyes)

Aj:  Oh I got dust in my eyes.

When the smoke clears and aj gets the dust out of his eyes both him and Kayla see someone.

Kayla:  (noticed who it is). Oh it's you.

???:  Hello there Ms.  Kayla.

Kayla:  Jackson.

Aj:  Oh that gunslinger heard he was the fastest hands in this city.

Kayla:  I've heard but never seen.

Jackson:  Guess today is your lucky day.

Aj:  You got this Kayla.

Kayla:  (embarrassed). Shut up.

Kayla goes to strike jackson but right before she hits him there is a loud bang.

Aj:  (surprised). No way.

Kayla looks down to see a bullet wound on her stomach.

Kayla:  It's just one bullet I'm fine.

Kayla goes to strike him again but right before she's able to hit him.  He shoots her again.

Kayla:  (backing up a little). Alright that one took me by surprise but I'm not stopping.
