28. You're fired

A shot made Beans's cry louder, followed with another shrill shouting. Math let fall his gun and held his shoulder.
Beans stared at Jake, but he had not used his empty gun.
Suddenly a movement came from a rock. Greg jumped down and landed next to Beans, his gun still in his hand.
"You are not allowed to touch them!" he shouted at Math. "Think about the deal!"
Ethan and Karl, who sat on their roadrunners behind Math were unsure whether they should use their guns. Ethan moved his hand, but Greg gave him a warning glance.
"Let it be, Ethan!" he warned. "Stay there!"
Jake froze when the gun moved in his direction. The big rattlesnake growled threateningly. His eyes filled with hate he looked at the armed wolf. He winced when he felt how Beans came closer to him and held his belt.
Greg looked back at Math and the others. "Go back to Castigo and bring him here!"
Math growled and picked up his revolver. He gave Greg an ugly glance and climbed back on his roadrunner.
"Ethan, Karl you stay…."
"I manage it alone," Greg interrupted. "Castigo was waiting for you the whole night and he is in a bad mood. Don't make him mad as he already is."
Math pressed his hands to fists. "I hope after that day, I never have to see you again," he spat. Then their rode up the hill.
As soon as they disappeared, Greg lowered his gun.
Suddenly Jake jumped at him to hit his teeth into the wolf's body. But Greg jumped aside. When Jake wanted to start a new attack, he had to stop when the gun was aiming on him again.
Beans stood up for Jake and held her hands in the air. "No! Please, let us go!"
Jake hissed. "Don't beg for anything! I will bring him to hell personally alone!"
"No, Jake!" Beans screamed and looked at his face. "You can't!"
"Calm down!" Greg spoke. "If you want to come out of here, you have to come with me."
Jake was confused for a moment. Beans stared at Greg until Jake interrupted. "Are you kidding me?!"
Beans raised her hands higher. "Jake!" She swallowed with trembling hands.
"Why this?" she asked.
Greg narrowed his eyes. "I don't want to work for that sick bastard anymore."
"As if!" Jake muttered sarcastically. "A likely story!"
Beans looked into Greg's eyes. Could she trust his words?
"I collected the guards so that could you flee," the wolf continued.
Jake rattled his rattle. Greg pressed his finger on the trigger. "You have no much time anymore. Either now or never."
Jake spat. "We don't need your damn help!"
"Jake, please!" Beans pleaded.
"Shut your trap!" Jake shouted.
"You will never come out here if you don't do what I say!" Greg added for consideration.
Jake smiled evilly. "You don't know me. I never surrendered, neither yesterday nor today."
"Jake!" Beans touched his belly. "Don't do it! Please, look at me!"
"Could you never shut your mouth?!" Jake shouted.
"Jake! Look at me!"
Jake looked down at her slowly. Beans winced when the fire in his eyes seemed to burn very brightly. But she held his eyes.
"Please, Jake!" She looked at him with her pleading brown eyes, looking for a good way.
Jake shook his head. "I need revenge. I have to kill them all! My image is my only face. I can't surrender."
Beans forced a smile and petted over the snakeskin. "You can do it later. First, we have to get away."
Jake's eyes wandered to Greg, who had put down his gun but he held it still in his hand.
"Just this one time," he heard Beans's voice. "Just this once."
Jake closed his eyes. Contracted his mind on Beans's touch against his will.
"Alright," he hissed with pressed voice.
Greg put his revolver into his holster. "Come, this way."
He ran down the left way, the opposite of where Math and the others had come from.
"Why this way?" Jake asked mistrustfully.
"Jake, let's go," Beans cut him short and followed Greg.
Jake hissed. "What a damn day."
They walked in high pace on the way along the high cliff. Beans's legs trembled a little but she went on. The sky became brighter. She looked over the rocks in the distance, where Rango could be somewhere.
She screamed hoarsely when she crashed against Greg's body. The wolf stood on the way and didn't move. In this moment, Jake bent around the corner and froze. All three looked ahead.
Their glance on a barrel ready to fire.
"Nice morning run." Castigo smiled mockingly. "Very nice."
His glance glued on Greg in first place. "Did you really think I'm stupid. I never liked you anyway. But you was a good help for my plans."
Suddenly, Jake turned around to run back but some figures on the way avoid his escape with their guns.
He twirled around and held his head over Greg's head. "Keep away, or I kill him!"
Beans looked at him with shock. Was that threat useful?
Castigo winged his gun. "So, do you? Let me make your work easier."
BANG!
Beans screamed and pressed her hands on her mouth. Greg bent his body with pain and held his chest. The fox smiled coldly. He came closer.
Greg stood still there with shaking body on his feet.
Both looked daggers at each other.
Castigo smiled. "I dislike traitors."
Suddenly he thrusted him closer to the cliffs. Seconds they stayed until the fox lifted one foot. "You're fired."
Castigo kicked him with his shoe and pushed him over the edge of the cliff. It passed few seconds until the silence was interrupted with a dump crash.
"Not easy to recycle rubbish."
His glance wandered back to Jake and Beans. The rattlesnake was in rage while Beans tried to find protection in his near.
Cartigo laughed and waved his gun around. "Don't try to jump or do you think I'm so stupid and I didn't positioned any men in the area around? There is no escape for you."
Jake pressed his lips together. He just whispered one sentence with dark voice: "I swear, I will kill you in hell."
"Nice last sentence," Castigo said unimpressed. "I will write it on your grave."
He smiled. Jake covered his eyes with his hat just to don't seen that awful ugly visage.
Castigo left the avoiding glance of Jake and paid back his attention to Beans, who stood like frozen next to Jake. She clung her fingers deeper in Jake's leather belt.
He came closer. He pushed forward his gun and lifted up her chin. Beans tried to show no fear but she couldn't resist to swallow. She held his gaze. Castigo chuckled mockingly.
"I see, I let you alone too long."
Beans gasped for air when he grabbed her left shoulder. She felt his claws. He pulled her up closer to him.
"We wasted too much time. Maybe it's time to show your new home."
He rubbed his fingers on her cloth. Beans's eyes grew wide.
