Anna looked at Bowie he was still barking orders although he was gravely injured she knew he was fine his gob was still working. She knocks the two men out when she moved towards the girl she started sobbing and telling her that they made her do it she was forced but from Anna's judgment, she was faking as Bowie freed himself he came over and was sympathetic towards the girl he had a weakness it was couldn't see girls crying so he was listening to her. Anna went untie the boy he had a gag in his mouth as Anna took it out he was swearing his head off at the girl telling her that she betrayed him she brought him here on false pretences as he was still yelling the girl pulled a gun out of nowhere she aimed at the nearest person who was Bowie. As the boys stood there in shock that the girlfriend pulled a gun out of nowhere Anna wasn't surprised she did except something of the sort. Anna wasn't worried Bowie knew how to handle himself or so she thought.
Anna was getting ready to leave when the gun went off she turned around to take a look and Bowie lay on the floor with blood pouring out of his chest the girl had shot him. Anna froze she thought he was dead as she watched the blood pour out and cover the floor Bowie wasn't making any noise he lay there still the boy that they came to rescue tackled the gun he ended up shooting the girl dead. Anna came out of her shock ran over to Bowie she performed basic first aid tried to stop the bleeding least Bowie was still alive she a heave. A sigh of relief. Anna needed to get out of there fast with Bowie his breathing was shallow and his pulse was slowing down she places dimwit on her back started to walk back. Anna knew she should have gone with her instinct she had and pulled Bowie backs she thought about all the things she could have done she blamed her self for not paying attention. As she walked back the boy who they rescued behind her he started to talk.
Boy:" how old are you look really young" she looks so young hug she is amazing.
Anna:" you wouldn't believe me if I told you" I am only twelve but been doing this most of my life.
Boy, " you look around twelve" she is very pretty.
Anna:" you guessed right" wow clever.
Boy:" wow, I just took a wild guess and I am right where did you learn to fight like that your we're amazing I am going back learning self-defence at least I won't land my self in this kind of situation ever again" he memorised by her
Anna:" you shouldn't always trust people easily especially because you belong to such a prestigious family" he is dimwit he got a life lesson though.
Boy:" your right this, not the first time someone has tried to use me I have learned my lesson today they were going take the money and kill me I will never trust anyone again especially women" he was going stay clear of them.
Anna:" good Iyou can guess trust in me until I get out of this dense forest than don't trust anyone, not even your own shadow"
Anna was only winding him up little did she know that he would literary take her words seriously. Anna. Had cleared the forest and finely had access to internet she quickly dialled Ed and told them where they where. It didn't take them long to find them. Bowie was taken to the hospital he survived just about after they were both pestered by the boy's father to become his security guards. Anna kindly declined while Bowie took the offer and left the group. Form that day Anna became self-reliant she knew if she depended in anyone she would be killed or she would get someone killed that's why she always headstrong and goes in her self him if anything happens she has to rely on her self. Many a time this boy who had become a one of the most successful business was known for being so cold and brutal and notorious playboy would send Anna marriage proposals which she happily declined she knew she was the reason he became that playboy she didn't think that her words would have such a big impact on one person. Anna didn't know whether to be happy or angry but what's done is done.
