He noticed some tracks going forward and followed them. The tracks disappeared near the trunk of a large tree and Newb stopped, all senses on the alert. He looked around keenly and spotted nothing.
Just then, he heard a branch creak above him.
He looked up instantly, and spotted his target. DOC FAUSTUS!!
Doc froze for an instant as he looked back at Newb. He tried to turn around, but Newb jumped upwards and did a flip in mid-air, landing on the branches just below Doc.
"Hiya, Doc. They call me Newb," he winked at Doc and started shooting.
BLAM!! BLAM!!
Both shells caught Doc off-guard, and thundered into his belly. Doc fell forward, and Newb jumped right over him, somersaulting and flipping forward, and aiming directly at Doc in mid-air.
BLAM!! BLAM!!
BLAM!! BLAM!!
All 4 shells thumped into Doc's body before it even hit the ground. Doc fell down heavily on a clump of bushes, letting out a huge groan as the blood poured out. Newb landed right beside him and looked down.
"What do you think of Newb law, Doc?," Newb asked with a wide, wicked grin.
Doc turned around and crawled into the bushes, taking his HPs out quietly.
Newb whirled around, and winked towards his left. HAMMERFAN came forward, and looked at him questioningly.
"He went through the bushes over there," Newb gestured carelessly forward, taking his small beer bottle out again for another swig.
Hammerfan nodded and moved forward, following a thin trail of blood. She followed the track to the river, and saw nobody. Just then, someone broke through the water on the other side of the river and collapsed on the bank, reaching for something behind him.
It was Doc Faustus.
"Think you can aim and shoot that far, lady? Or do you need glasses?," Newb laughed as he followed Hammerfan's gaze.
