Tresa took Tim from Alannah, and placed a call to Dominic, then Alannah followed Anya out the back door.
"Anya, what is going on? Who is out there?" Alannah asked nervously, shaking very badly.
"The only predators to be found on an island, walk on two legs," Anya told her, opening the barrell, to making certain that it was loaded and then closed it. Then, with incredible speed, she turned, aimed at something beyond the trees, and then fired all in one blurry motion. "Next time I don't just shoot your cap off!" Anya yelled, ejecting the spent shell casing and ramming another shell into place. "No one messes with my family, do you hear me?? It would serve you well to come out hiding or I will shoot to kill!"
