Chapter Twenty Two

She woke up in the soft bed, feeling the presence of somebody trying to take her prosthetic off. Looking down she smiled at Judith; reached out for her hand and said to her to undo the buckle first. Judith started; then relaxed as she heard Dawson’s raspy voice, full of emotion and raw. They looked at each other and Judith nodded once, and gently removed the prosthetic leg. Dawson lay there and watched as Judith came to where her head was and softly plumped up the pillows and reached out to stroke her hair.

“It..It must have been hard for you..to do that; I mean, kill your son.” Judith whispered.

“They both deserved it. They were good for nothing layabouts, and I did the world a favour,” Dawson croaked. “Trust me, I know. As much as they were my flesh and blood, they were both not very nice people.”

“What would they have done? I mean, if they had managed to take over our boat?” Judith asked, looking at Dawson with wide eyes. “Surely they had some good inside them?”

“Honey, don’t you waste any time crying for them. They were both weak; always taking the easier path, and got themselves into prison all on their own. I gave up on them a long time ago.” she said firmly; holding Judith’s gaze steadily. “If they had gotten on board; or tried, I would have still shot them all. Let me tell you this, that armed robbery was not the only thing they went to prison for. It was also rape and kidnapping as well.”

At this revelation Judith gasped, as the implication hit her. She grasped Dawson’s hand and squeezed.

“I think we owe you a debt of gratitude then, and we should not mourn their loss at all,” she said softly.

Dawson just shook her head, and held Judith’s hand for a second more then let go. “I need my sleep darling, please tell our intrepid leader that I will live. Tell me, what happened to the other boat?” Dawson asked quickly, hoping Simon had decided to keep it and tow it.

“Simon managed to get across to it, and brought it back. We have it on tow now, and it is a very fast boat by what George can tell. He says it is a cigarette boat, whatever that is.” Judith explained. “I gather that is what you wanted to happen?”

“Good, the other two I saw dive overboard? Did they swim away?” she questioned, feeling the pull of sleep. Her eyelids felt suddenly heavy.

“They did get away, and hid behind a wreck about 400 yards off. Simon did not have the heart to kill them.” Judith explained as she got up; seeing Dawson's eyes close as she drifted back to sleep.

Dawson came awake with a start, realising that she had been dreaming; dreaming of her son's, and how they had gone hunting together. They had all gotten separated, and she had eventually found them both; dead, dressed in deer costumes.

'Mind fuck, that's what that was.
