Hot Rod texted Titus to say they found whoever was out here and they were caught up in one of Jep’s slings.Hot Rod put his phone away and began searching for the trapped person.His footsteps were careful and silent but his ear picked up on a woman’s voice not far from where he stood.
As he got closer, he could see the sling in motion, the figure caught in the web was small and looked like a female but Hot Rod couldn’t believe that.He got closer.
The woman caught in the trap snapped her head up to glare at him.
Hot Rod was only a few feet away now and he had stopped and just stood there as he viewed her predicament.
“What are you looking at, you big bully?”She growled.
Hot Rod just stood there staring at her.
Finally, she sneered.“Are you going to get me out of this or just stand there gawking at me?”
Hot Rod scoffed and asked, “And why should I help you at all?”He growled.“What are you doing here anyway?In fact, how the hell did you even get here?We’re going to be at war soon with a very nasty group and this isn’t the time to be wandering this mountain.”
She laid against the web of rope she had gotten caught up in and then she nodded.“Yeah, I know what’s coming here and it’s my fevered wish that you guys will win this war.I just came here because I wanted to see it happen.I wanted to personally see the end of that family with my own two eyes.”
Hot Rod frowned.“What the hell?Why are you so interested in that?”
“Because the Sanchez family deserves no less than final annihilation.”She growled.“Preferably in the most painful ways possible.”
Hot Rod raised an eyebrow at her words and then he shook his head.“And why would you be so happy at that prospect?Are you always this bloodthirsty?”
The woman sighed then she shook her head.“No, I haven’t always been bloodthirsty but that family deserves every ounce of hate I can muster in my tiny heart.They’re the worst of the worst and they have done enough damage in this world to earn a quick rush into hell’s own fires.”
“And who are you to judge them?”he asked her softly.
A look of rage passed in her eyes as she didn’t answer him.
Finally, she explained it, “I’m someone who has seen their wickedness up close and personal.One of the many that has suffered by what they did and who they are.”
“What does that mean?”he asked as he studied her.
Silence covered the clearing again.
