Chapter 13: Are we EVER going to get there?

3rd P.O.V
As Georgie, Ty and Amy are on the road, back at heartland something goes wrong, terribly wrong, yet no one knows yet.

AMY'S P.O.V (1st person) (A/N: that's right, that's all i'm giving you 😏.)

Ty's been driving for about an hour. It's been a long and boring journey.
"Ugh, are we ever going to get there?" Georgie complains, he cheek leaning onto the back it Ty's headrest, "sorry, it's just this is pretty boring." She adds, I just shrug.
"It won't be long now, no more then half an hour."
Ty tells us, we nod.

We come into another small town.
"We should stop for a few minutes, since we don't have to go far." I tell Ty, who nods and we pull over in front of a small park, no one is really about here, too. A jogger is down the road, but it's pretty quiet too.

We hop out and stretch our legs, check on the horses then top up on fuel-not that we needed it, before heading back onto the road.

MYSTERY'S P.O.V

I watch as they stop at a tiny park. Finnaly, I thought they'd never stop. Now could be the chance, get them early then head home and open a beer, that sounds perfect.
While all three of them go into the back to check on the animals, I assume, I approach the truck, I pull a screw driver out from my pocket, and am about to loosen it when I hear them exit the box. Quickly I retreat back. To be car and watch them pull off once again. I sigh.
"Couldn't do it. We'll have to do it once they're there." I sigh to ____.
"Alright. Let's go before the boss calls. He has eyes everywhere!" he shudders. I nod and we pull out and follow them.
God, I'm surprised they haven't caught on yet.

AMY'S P.O.V

Finnaly, we come to a stop. it's been about half an hour since our stop, and we just turned onto a gravel road, in the middle of Canadian woods. (or bush/forestry- what would you usually call it? -A/N)

We pull into a smaller, narrow track that is barley there, and as soon as it's there, it's not. We park the truck behind some large tree's, it's completely out of view. So it shouldn't get stollen, this time.
"Hey Spartan!" I coo to Spartan, coming in. He turns his head and nickers at me, from in front of Phoenix.

I unclip Phoenix, who Georgie grabs, then I unclip Spartan. He follows after me without being led and I take off his travel blanket and un rap his legs, I notice Ty and Georgie doing the same to Harley and Phoenix.

Together we tack them all up and we secure our packet tents to the saddles. Ty and I are sharing, Georgie get's her own tent , so Harley is carrying our small feed supply.

I double check the girth and make sure everything in the saddle bag is in there that should be (flashlight, rope, etc.). We lock up the truck, adding the keys to Georgie's saddle bag, and grab our backpacks. We've all packed light, so it isn't heavy.

We set off along an animal trail in single file, I am in the middle with Ty in front, and Georgie behind. "Let's canter!" Georgie calls out and we all do, the horses have been itching to move, I can tell, as they eagerly move along the trail, Spartan chews on the bit. After about five minutes of cantering, we slow to a Trott as we move along the trail, listening to the sound of birds.

"Wow, it's so peaceful!" George breaks the silence, I turn and smile at her, nodding.
I notice that the trail isn't very rocky, and is pretty flat—well used.

Finally, we come to a clearing, it's small but thankfully, a fresh water stream is a couple hundred meters away, you can hear it pretty well. It's just off to the right side of the track a bit.
We soon settle down and Georgie and I take the horses to drink from the clear watered stream while we leave Ty to set up the tents alone. (Georgie's idea, not mine!)

Unknown's P.O.V
I duck behind a tree as two girls and three horses head towards the stream. wait....that means the guy is alone. I could kill him! Make my job easier, kill them quickly! I'd make some noise and they'd come running back, to find him dead, lying in a pile of dirt, and they'll join him and they'll never be seen again....
I smile from my hiding place, my plan is perfect. I am about to head in the direction they came from, still till in awesome thoughts of them all dead, when I'm knocked out of my thoughts by a twig snapping and some quiet chatter.
I've waited to long. They're heading back. Sh*<. Damn it.
I sigh and beckon for my men to retreat with me. Though, they're not my men, but they are my boss's men, I'm more like a second in command, but anyway. I'm in command, of them, a bit, we'll settle with that.

We retreat back and watch from a distance.
"Next time!" I hiss at ___, whom huffs and crosses his arms in response.

Meanwhile with Lou!
I Huff as I come back from tending to the Dude Ranch.
“Stupid city slickers with their stupid excuses....” I grumble as I check another item off the list mentally.
“Haha yeah, idiots, am I right?!”
I jump and spi around. Leaning against a tree is a guy with a lit cigarette, facing down so his hat conceals view of him.

“I'm sorry but who are you?” I speak.
He tilts his head and I catch a smirk.
“Your worst nightmare. ” he cackles and before I can react he throws something at me and I catch a weird smell. Everything goes black and I feel myself drop.

Hey, so......I really have to work on making chapters longer, don't I. They've been so long in the past, but hey, this one is around 1000 words, so it's all good!
Hahaha drama!
Sorry it took so long.
