Unexpected complications

Bo was listening to Master Hollow's explanation of different strategies and potential outcomes, when their attention got drawn toward the noise from the side.

Two poachers walked in from the forest and stared at the situation in disbelief. A teenager and an old man are sitting on a wooden bench with twenty-something men tied up on the ground. It took only a second for the two poachers to pull their guns out.

Bo was absolutely terrified. It's one thing to ambush poachers, but now it's only him and his Master, facing two guns who are directed at them. And the two of them are unarmed.

Master Hollow moved on an instinct…

'BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!'

Four gunshots shook up the air.

The first two were from the poachers, and the other two were from Sarah who emerged from the back to see the scene of the poachers aiming their guns at Master Hollow and Bo.
