Trenner’s Garage Chap. 11

Gun Range:
Tammy loads up all the spare magazines she had for her custom .45 XD Mod2’s. She bought two hundred rounds and loaded all eight of her magazines. She adjusts her shooting glasses and tries not to cry as she picks up one of her loaded XD’s. She aims at the furthermost targets and starts firing at them. She misses the target as tears stream out of her eyes.

She stops firing and lay her gun down on the bench in front of her. She removes her shooting glasses and wipes the tears away. She tries to get her emotions under control, before picking her gun up again. She takes a deep breath and center herself.

Tammy picks her gun up again and starts firing at the target. She unloads the magazine into it and switches to her other gun. She picks another faraway target and empties that magazine into it. She was hitting dead center in both metal targets. She reloads her first gun and the one currently in her hands and starts firing again.

All the furthest targets on the range get a magazine full of bullets unloaded into them. Tammy reloads her magazines again and starts firing at different targets as fast as she could. She had both handguns in her hands and was cutting loose. A smoke cloud was forming in her area as she fired non-stop.

She puts her guns down on the bench and reloads all eight magazines again. Once they were reloaded. She picks her guns back up again and starts firing. She doesn’t realize that the other shooters at the gun range had gather behind her and were watching her.

Some of the older people in the crowd were amazed at how fast and accurate she was. They were also amazed that she was firing both guns at the same time, which was very hard to do. They watch as she switches targets quickly and accurately, without slowing down.

Tammy looks down at the bench and notices she was out of ammo. She lays her guns down on the bench and leans forward. She was still mad, upset, and felt betrayed. She removes her glasses and wipes the tears away.

She hears clapping coming from behind her. She turns around and saw a crowd of people standing behind her. She hadn’t realized they had been there. A tall bald guy comes walking towards her.

“That was some outstanding shooting, ma’am.” Leland was impressed with Tammy’s shooting.

“Thank you. You have to forgive me, I’m not doing so good right now.” Tammy was barely holding it together.

“You wouldn’t know it from the way you were shooting.” Leland had stopped close to Tammy and noticed her eyes.

“Thanks.” Tammy looks at the guy standing near her.

He was an older gentleman and had a bunch of tattoos on both his arms. The one that caught her attention was the unique special forces tattoo. She has heard about it, from some of her father’s friends, but has never seen it before.

“If you can shoot as upset as you look. I would hate to see what you are like when you're not upset.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. By the way, my name is Leland MacArthur.” Leland holds his hand out towards Tammy.

“It's nice to meet you, Leland, I’m Tammy Beck.” Tammy shakes Leland’s hand.

“Well, Mrs. Beck. You are an excellent shooter. I know several special forces guys that would love to have half your talent. How long have you been shooting?”

“Since I was fourteen years old. I do competition shooting.”

“That explains your skill. I’m going to meet up with some friends of mine. How about you joining us for a drink?”

Tammy looks at Leland and figures what the hell. She wasn’t ready to rejoin her friends.

“Sure, why not. I could use a good drink.”

“Good. Let me go and get my gear.”

“Okay.”

Tammy watches as Leland walks down towards the other end of the stalls. She turns around and picks up her guns and slides in the original magazines she always kept loaded in her handguns. She looks at her guns and knew it was a good thing she wasn’t in front of her boyfriend right now.

She puts the guns into their holster and waits for Leland.

Back at the Safe House:
Paul wakes up and finds Terry snuggled up next to him. His back was still hurting him. He notices Kat was already up. He tries to get out of bed without waking Terry but wakes her up.

“Morning daddy.” Terry looks at her father.

“Sorry for waking you, sweetie.” Paul stands up slowly off the bed.

“It’s okay, daddy.” Terry sits up and hugs her father.

Paul was surprised with Terry hugging him. He wraps his arms around her and returns her hug. He knows it's been hard on his children with him and Kat in India. He just holds her for a while and releases her “let's go and get some food sweetie.” He places a kiss on her forehead.

“Okay, daddy.” Terry gets up out of bed.

She follows behind her father towards the kitchen. She spots her mother, aunt, and uncle along with the boys. She walks up behind her mother and hugs her.

Kat felt Terry behind her, as she hugged her. She turns to look at her baby and her husband Paul.

“How are you feeling sweetie?”

“Me fine, mommy. Daddy is a little sore.” Terry watches as her father sits down next to her mother.

“Are you hungry, Paul?” Charlotte was standing near the counter.

“I would love a cup of coffee.”

“How do you take it?” As Charlotte grabs a coffee cup.

“Black, Charlotte.” Kat looks towards her sister-in-law.

Charlotte walks over to Paul and sets the coffee cup in front of Paul.

“Thanks, Charlotte?” Paul picks the cup up and takes a sip from it.

“You’re welcome. How about you, sweetie?” Charlotte looks towards Terry.

“I got what I want.” Terry walks around and sits on her mother’s lap.

Kat wraps her arms around Terry and places a kiss on her cheek. She was happy to be back home to her family. She does wonder where her oldest and Crystal went off to. She heard Valentina had a new girlfriend and figure she was with her.

Even when upset. However anger achohiol & guns don't really mix well. I hope Tammy can get things settled with her ex-boyfriend before she blows his head off.

Love Samantha Renée Heart.

Yeah

Just kneecap him first and give him a chance to explain. When he's done then she'll be mad enough to do a proper job.
