Zona walk deep into the forest , looking around if she could find any animal to hunt down. She stop when she heard a noise coming from the bush nearby so she moved, since it is already dusk she couldn't see anything but with the little help of the full moon she could only see shadows. The noise became louder as the cold night breeze blow the trees and the bushes, she moved to the bush ,holding the arrow on her bow firmly ,but she halt when she heard a voice of a man . she move closer to see a man on a cloak groaning in pains , she knelt beside him and try to help him but couldn't then she realized he had been shot on his left leg.

" Fuck! you bastard can't you see am in pain?He hissed angrily and snatch her hand away from him. Zona flare up and shook her head but when she realized that he was passing through pains she became silent and inspect his leg to see if she could see any bullet on his it but she couldn't see it since it was dark so she went instead to look for a special herbal leaf that will help reduce the pain but before she came back with the leaf , he had already passed out so she gathered some fire wood and light it before settling down to handle the task of removing the bullet before tying the herbal leaf on his leg. After she is sure he is alright , since she couldn't leave him she sat by his side all night staying alert until morning

"Well you should dress like a female . Anyway take me out of here" He said arrogantly

"you know what am done here" she said taking her bow from the floor. " and you know what I don't know who the fuck you are and I don't wanna know, you know why ? you sucks" she said and began to leave.

"Hey , I will pay you to help me ,just take me out of here" He said and she stop mid way . He was going to pay her ,which means she will be able to provide for her grandma and herself. With the thought of what she will do with the money she walk towards him

"Fine I will help you if you can first tell me who the hell you are? She said aggressively . Ray frown and look at her with surprise . How come she didn't recognize him

" You're joking right? He asked with a scowl on his face

"Can you stop talking and take me out of here"

" Well am not going to. If you treat me like one of your servants "

"Even with 70 silver shekels?" He asked

"Even with 70 silver shekels" she replied

Ray shrug and gave her an helpless look, which made her smirk at her victory . she went and arrange a carriage to take him home when she return to him she lean to help him.

"hmmm .... I don't want people to know my identity" He said
