Jason.
Danny blindly fired a few shots, but Jason stopped him for fear of hitting Helen instead. After a few minutes, Carlos shouted out.
“Hey mister! Back off or the lady dies right now! Show yourselves and drop your weapons!”
Jason answered back, “how about you let the woman go, and I won’t blow your head off!”
Carlos laughed.
“You have big words mister. You Americans always the same with your big mouths. Me and my friend here we not afraid. We kill you down here where nobody finds you. Put down your guns, and I let you live.”
Jason was about to explode. His face turned red with rage as he reloaded his Colt, ready to charge out shooting.
“Jason!” said Danny, “wait! Think of Helen. I know you can take them out even without my help. But you’re putting Helen at risk. We can get them later. Think about it, will you!”
Before Danny could continue. Jason was already out in the open. He had the two men in his sights at almost forty yards away. All it took was a single shot to the head, bringing Diego down in a second. Helen screamed as she saw the bullet penetrate his skull.
On instinct, Carlos grabbed her, using her as a shield. He had underestimated his opponent. Carlos knew by experience that only a handful of men could make a shot like that. He took hold of his dead friends rucksack and slung it over his shoulder while holding Helen at gun point. Jason kept Carlos in his sights, ready to take a shot. Danny came out, standing between the gun and Helen’s assailant.
“Danny move! Or I’m gonna shoot right through you!” said Jason, as sweat ran down his forehead.
“Jason! Don’t risk the shot, we can get him later, listen to me for god’s sake!”
Carlos called out, “lower your gun, or I shoot her right now!”
Helen spoke out to him, “Jason! Listen to Danny, please!”
He slowly threw his weapon to the ground and backed away from the entrance while Carlos and Helen approached them.
“Move further inside! Do it now!” Shouted Carlos.
They moved further away from the entrance while Carlos and his hostage walked slowly out of the cavern. Helen disappeared into the darkness, her eyes filled with tears. Carlos then took out a small plastic explosive, lighting it. He threw it against the wall of the cavern entrance. The explosion was enough to bring down the above wall blocking the entrance. Debris and dust engulfed the cavern as Jason and Danny tried to run for cover.
Carlos and Helen made their way out into the jungle again. He tied her hands together. Helen thought this must be it, this is where he is going to kill me. Instead, he took hold of the rope and walked in the direction where they had come from.
She held back, saying, “where are you taking me? Why won’t you let me go?”
Carlos continued walking, pulling her by the rope.
“I take you back to America where my boss is waiting for you. Now hurry. There is a private plane waiting for us.”
The dust began to settle as Jason and Danny gained consciousness after having been blown at least twenty feet by the blast. Jason came around first and went over to his friend Danny checking for any signs of injury. He sat Danny up who was shaken by the blast.
“Are you hurt?” asked Jason.
“No, I don't think so. What about you?” said Danny.
Jason replied. “I’m okay, but that bastard is gonna pay, big time!”
CHAPTER NINE
A small fixed winged aircraft took off from a deserted field with Carlos and Helen on their way to the States. She was guaranteed to be set free once her abductor was satisfied with her assistance. The aircraft had to stop for refueling, and then continued its flight to Florida, where they landed on a remote runway next to an abandoned hangar. They were met by a large black van. Helen couldn’t see the driver through the dark tinted windows and could barely walk from exhaustion after traveling for more than six hours nonstop.
