Luckily while the leader and the lieutenant were interacting, Truce had instructed one of his men to place the unconscious bandits around the hostages so if they were going to kill, then they were going to be used as the victims instead.
When the leader gestured for a gunshot, one of the brigade pulled the trigger and then shot the bandit just for the woman to fall to the ground.
Seated in front of Sydney, it was a close call making Pene perplexed, stunned by the activity.
She was shocked to see the woman fall to the ground, thankfully Sydney wasn't shot by the bullet.
"Sydney, are you okay?" Pene shuddered as she approached her trying to make sure she was okay.
"Yeah," Sydney muffled under her breaths taken aback by the event, she placed a hand on her forehead and then on Pene's hand which was on her cheek.
"Pene, these men are dangerous. I just really hope wherever Anna maybe she's okay," Sydney hampered as she tried to calm herself.
