Casey, after running for a bit and not seeing Landon catch up, spun around and yelled, "Don't move!" Landon whipped his head around. Casey grabbed her gun and fired, but her aim was so bad she couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.
Landon's eyes flashed with a mix of murder and annoyance. He reached for his own gun and pointed it at Casey. Quinn's eyes went wide. Landon's aim was no joke. Just as he raised his hand, Quinn jumped up and shouted, "Watch out!" Hearing her, Landon paused and turned to look at her.

A motorcycle was speeding towards them.
Realizing it was probably Alexander, Landon didn't waste a second and started to run.
But he couldn't outrun the bike. In no time, the motorcycle overtook him and skidded to a stop, blocking his way.
A black gun was pointed at his forehead, and Alexander said coldly, "Why run now?" Landon froze, his eyes scanning Alexander. Alexander looked a bit rough, his shirt wrinkled, hair a mess.
"You look pretty beat up," Landon said.
Alexander smirked, "Enough to take you down." Landon sneered, "Don't be so sure." Alexander's eyes flicked to Landon's arm. His gun was on the ground, and his arm was still bleeding.
Landon had almost no chance to fight back.

As they struggled, Landon's backup had already caught up. Seeing this, Landon sneered, "Looks like you're done for." "Think again," Alexander shot back.
