Chapter 10

At the outskirts of Wheeler, the reserve group of men waiting for direction from Shane got to their feet. Sixteen pairs of eyes watched him with some mixture of curiosity and concern, and he could hear them talking amongst themselves in hushed whispers. Out of the five men that set out with him, only three of them were left. The group would have questions for him, and he didn't even have Jack Miller's head to show for it.

"Come on. We're going back to Long Branch. Miller isn't here. He's in Long Branch trying to get his son back," Shane said.

"What happened? We heard shooting. Where are the other guys?" a man asked.

Shane gave the man a hard stare and ignored the question.

"Let's go. Get your stuff and move. I said we're going back to Long Branch," Shane said in a tone that brooked no argument.

"You... You shouldn't have shot that man. He wasn't the one who killed your son. He didn't do anything to you," a stammering voice said behind him.

He spun around, filled with anger. David. He was a weakling member of the scavenging team. One of the pathetic group that got his son killed in the first place. What place did he have to criticize him?

"How can you call yourself a friend of my son? Where were you when Todd was shot? Did you do anything to help him, or did you tuck your tail and hide?" Shane asked.

"Why’d you shoot him? He didn't deserve to be shot," David said, his body visibly shaking.

"Did you really think they would just turn Jack over to us? Do you think they would have told us where he was? I did what I had to do. You saw what that town was like. Those bikers had the run of the place. Animals. They wouldn't have told us anything if I hadn't done what needed to be done," Shane said. His frustration at the waste of time spent looking for Jack was about to boil over.

"Tell us what happened in town, Shane," another man demanded.

"They wouldn't turn over Miller and then one of them stepped forward giving me some attitude. I asked him if he was Jack Miller and he said he was. So I shot him. It turns out it wasn't Jack. But while we're out here wasting our time arguing with each other over those assholes, Jack is headed to Long Branch to get his son. That man is a killer and deserves what’s coming to him. Don't waste any more of my time. I will have justice for my son. Let's go," Shane said.

An older man stepped out from the group of men. "You shot one of their people? Is that what started all of the shooting in Wheeler? Listen to that," the old man said, pointing to the town below. "It sounds like a damn war zone down there. Where are the five men that went into town with you all?"

"Two of them were shot. We were outnumbered and outgunned.
