The other guard had dropped his sidearm. I knew that he had already been shot several times by the time I was in front of him, but I continued shooting. Even when he fell to the ground in a bloody mess, I finished the rest of my clip, finally stopping only when my son came up to me and yelled that he was dead.
I removed my finger from the trigger, even though I wanted to continue shooting. The sick thrill that I was getting; what was wrong with me? I had just taken two HUMAN lives, and there was no remorse—NONE! My heart was racing and I couldn’t have felt any better at that moment in time.
Michael told me that we needed to move, that he was sure that others would coming as re-enforcement. I agreed, so we quickly made our way through the rest of the town with no further interference.
