Last Man Standing

Villa

The car hit a speed bump and it caused the girl who was tied up to bump her head against the wall of the van. She jolted awake to see the rope that constricted her.

"Hey let me go!" she yelled trying to wiggle free.

Jason turned around in his seat.

"Can't do that, cuz we don't know if your dangerous or not. Hey Vince check the bag and see if there's a bottle of water if there is give some so she won't dehydrate."

Vince looked through one of he duffel bags and found one.

"Hey you go." He said opening the cap. Pew! she spat on his face.

"Great." he said wiping his face off with Damian's jacket sleeve.

"I feel bad for you Vince. It's like the worlds out to ya." Brian said.

"Yea I'm surprised I'm not dead yet."

"Jason take for me." Brian stopped the van and swapped seats with Jason. He went to the back and shuffled through the bag of food.

"What the hell you doing?" he asked Brian.

"Finding something to eat cuz some asshole shot up my bag of chips."

He pulled out a bottle of water and a bag of Cheetos. He went back to the front and tore the bag up. He held the bag over to Jason.

"You want some? Throw the bag out the window and see what happens."

Jason reached into the bag and pulled out a fist full.

"So what did you mean wen we stole your supplies?"

"My food, meds, weapon. You know what I'm talking about."

"How can you be sure it's us?" .

Brian questioned her with a mouthful of Cheetos. She was silent.

***********

Karen was playing with her dolls and Taylor. Tyler was constantly checking on Caroline's wound to make sure it's infected. And Caroline was sleeping with head on Tyler's shoulder.

"You seem worried about her Tyler." Taylor said with a grin.

"She lost her son and got shot at.I can be mean but I'm not heartless."

"You know what I think?"

"What's that?" Taylor asked.

"I think he likes her." she whispered in Taylor's ear.

"Maybe." she said laughing.

"Hey!!" a man on the side of the road was waving both his arm. Miller drove pass him.

"Why did you keep driving?" Victoria asked.

"There was a scratch on his arm." He picked up the walkie. "Don't stop keep driving."

"You saw it too huh?" Brian replied.

"Yeah."

They drove pass a sign: Macon 5 miles.

"Jason said the villa should be around here so keep an eye out." HONK! Miller stopped his car. Jason ran out of his car.

"Beyond these trees is the villa."

The villa was two stories high. It was a decent size for the group.there was a lot of free space and a shed was next to the villa. Taylor got out taking Sebastian and Karen with her.

She squealed with excitement. "I can't believe it's still here! I'm gonna show my room it's really big."

"That's what she said." Brian said getting out of the van. Taylor gave him a look. "What?"

Jason helped Tyler move Caroline out the HUMVEE.

"Taylor open the door we need to move her in quick."

Taylor opened the doors. They started to move up the stairs when a man with a shotgun stopped them.

"Stop! what the hell you doing in my house!"

"Uncle Harris it's me Jason."

"Jason?" He looked closer at Jason's face. "It is you! I haven't seen you since you were eight years old. Your father thought that I wasn't to watch you and your sister-"

Jason interrupted him. "Can we talk about this later, we have to clean her gunshot wound. It's getting infected."

"Yea sure go." He watches them walk up the stairs and turns around.

"Hi uncle Harris!" Taylor yells.

"Taylor how have you been I haven't seen you in forever!"

Taylor runs up and hugs her uncle.

Miller, Michael, Vince and Victoria walks through the door holding all their supplies.

"Where's Brian and Damian?" Taylor asked.

"Our friend is a kicker." Miller said. He looks at Harris.

"And I suppose you military?" Harris asked.

"Yessir. Private Jack Miller at your service." he says holding out his hand.

"Harris Gulby." he said shaking Miller's hand.

Brian and Damian walked through the door.

"Hey you got any ice?" Brian says clutching the side of his face.

"Sorry bud all out." Harris told him.

For the rest of the night, everyone just got together and talked.

Tyler was digging around in The fridge and freezer and found a nice pack. He took it up to Caroline who's leg is really sore and swollen.

"Here you go figure you need it more then Brian."

"What's happens to him?" she asked.

"Got kicked in the face."

Karen is playing with all the stuffed animals inside Taylor's old room Sebastian was hiding under the mound of stuffed animals. Taylor was laying on the bed thinking how long their stay will last. Victoria was sitting on the the recliner chair inside Taylor's room listening I music on her phone.

"Hey Brian come here." Miller called. Brian walks over to him.

"Go cut out that girl in the shed. Tell her she can stay or go."

Brian left the house taking a pistol and a machete with him. Also the weapons the girl had with her. The shed was painted white and it has two doors. It looks old and weathered. Inside was tools, and building supplies. The girl was tied to a chair. He walks behind the chair and cuts the rope.

"You can stay with the group if you want or try your chances out there. He leaves the Glock and Bowie knife on the table and heads back inside. The girl stood there massaging her wrists, grabs her things and heads inside the villa.
