Cora looked out over the land where she could clearly see the large mass of horses and riders coming toward the town, their hoof beats like thunder. She quickly walked over to the other side of the roof to see if Austin was inside yet, sighing when she saw him still fiddling with his gun through the window of the building. She tightened her hands around her rifle, turning and walking back over to stand with the two women; watching the large group get closer to their town.
'Ain't nothing but pure ass luck gonna save us now,' Mary Agnes stated with a sigh.
'You got two Kelly's. That in itself puts you two steps ahead,' She smirked.
'How that suppose to help us?'
'Fear can do scary things to a person.'
As the group got closer to the town, Cora quickly checked to see if her brother was inside yet; cursing loudly when she still found him in the sheriffs office. She ducked down behind the low concrete walls surrounding the roof top, praying her brother got out safe. As the thundering slowed, she knew they were in the town. She took long deep breaths, staying calm as she looked across the rooftop; listening to the sound of doors being kicked in and the quiet murmurs of Frank's men.
'Where is everybody?' One of the men asked.
The Kelly girl winked toward Alice before she crawled toward the middle of the large concrete sign and pushed herself up onto her feet, stepping up on top of the sign with her rifle pointed to the ground and her pistol still holstered; her eyes hidden behind the brim of her hat.
'Up there,' One of the Devilins stated.
'Do I know you girl?' Frank asked after a moment of studying her.
Cora raised her head, 'I say so.'
'Didn't we kill you?' One of the twins asked.
'Do you believe in ghosts?'
She winked before she pulled her pistol and shot the Devilin in the chest, sending him backwards off his horse; dead.
'You goddamn bitch,' His twin spat.
'I've been called worse,' She replied with a chuckle.
The Kelly girl listened to all the windows below her be pushed open, all the men's eyes flickering around the building. It took a second before the bullets began to fly, Cora firing two before she jumped down from the top of the sign to get better covered. She stood and aimed her rifle over it, hitting some of the men and horses below. It was continuous gun fire, the dark haired girl doing all she could to kill as many men as possible.
She walked over to the side of the roof and opened fire on some of the men setting the buildings alight, hitting all of them; killing three. Cora ducked behind a pole to reload her rifle, stuffing it full of bullets before she returned to shooting the men below. She spun around as a yell came from behind her, the remaining Devilin twin riding onto the roof on horse back; firing a shot toward Mary Agnes. With a bored sigh, she fired a shot that ripped right through his body, from spine to ribs, before he was thrown off the edge of the building by his horse.
