Description
Hi, so, after so long, I'm so sorry, but my computer broke down and I had to buy a new one. For this reason, I bought a new computer, but I still need time to install some things. It will take a while until I can work limitless with it. :/ If it needs longer, I hope you will have some patient.

Well, enought prewords, enjoy the chapter. It's a little short. Next will be longer.

41. A better deal

She didn't feel pain.
She felt nothing.
She had closed her eyes, while the shot lost his sound.
But there was still no pain.
Hesitantly Beans opened her eyes. Dig winced and hunched his body. Then he fell and landed with a thud impact to the ground.
The girl was like paralyzed and stared at the body on the floor. Then she looked down about her body and about Rango's. But the panting chameleon didn't seem to be more injured than he already was. No one of them. But what hit the badger?
In the dark hall, she couldn't see much, until something was moving in the shadows of the walls.
Beans screamed hoarsely and pressed herself closer on Rango. First, she saw just a gun, followed by a figure. The big person took aim at the badger on the floor, just to be sure that he was dead really. When nothing happened anymore, Bill put away his revolver.
"I hate such kind of rubbish."
Beans was still unable to speak, until Rango's panting brought her back. The chameleon looked behind himself and held his shoulder, also still surprised about the Gila monster's appearing.
Bill came closer and looked down.
Both lizards looked at him, still unable to move, until Beans moved her trembling lips. "Y-You came…"
Bill crossed his arms. "More or less."
"For what?"
The big lizard narrowed his eyes. "Mpmf, more because of business. Someone made me a better deal."
Suddenly steps came closer. Shortly after Cassy appeared with a revolver in her hands.
"I think they are gone. At least for a while."
She looked down at the corpse on the floor.
"Where is Castigo?"
Rango pointed up. "Upstairs. Also dead."
The silver fox raised her eyebrows with surprise. Then she nodded. "Alright. In this case your reward money will be sure."
She looked at Bill.
Rango didn't understand. "Reward?"
"Don't think that I have changed my opinion about you," Bill said angrily without to answer his question. "In my eyes, you are still a loser."
He walked away and climbed up a ladder.
Cassy put the gun beside herself. "I told him that there is a head-money for Castigo. Finder will be rewarded if they bring him back to Mexico. Dead or alive. If he would try to catch him he could get the reward money."
She looked at them apologizing. "I hope you aren't angry. Without money, I had never broght him round to come back."
"That's okay," Rango said, very relieved to get the chance to relax after so long time. Beans was okay, their enemies were gone. It was all fine.
"It's fine."
"Nothing is fine!" Beans said loudly. "You are injured."
"Oh, this little scratch."
"It could inflame. Come here."
Beans guided him to lean against a wall. Then she eyed the shot wound.
"By the way, where is your man?" Rango asked.
"He is still okay," Cassy answered. "I left him for a moment. Chili is with him."
Both opened her eyes wider with surprise. "She is here?"
"Unimportant. We were worried about you."
"Worried? That's very…AHH!"
"Oh, sorry," Beans apologized after she had moved Rango's shirt to get at the wound.
Suddenly a body fell not far away on the ground. Bill had shoved down Castigo's corpse. Then the big lizard cimbed down. He whistled shortly. After a while his men appeared. The Gila-Monster pointed down.
"Bring it out. Also this."
He showed at Dig with a disgusting gesture.
"Wow," Stump said. "Did you kill them?"
"Do what I say," Bill answered snarlingly. He was not in mood to tell a story.
Meanwhile Beans was busy to treat Rango.
"It's not bad," she said.
She pressed a cloth over his injured skin to protect it and winded his shirt round his chest.
Rango smiled at her. "Thanks."
She hugged him.
Bill watched them with mixed feelings. These lizards were so happy that they were still alive.
Rango wrapped his arms around her and petted her back.
"After all, I think we can take a rest…"
Suddenly he remembered something.
"Jake! I forgot. I have to go!"
He stood up and ran forward.
"Go? No, you can't go," Beans protested and followed him. "Your shoulder…"
"I'm fine. That'll go off all right."
"Are you kidding me?" Bill asked and tapped his forehead. "You're crazy. You should be glad, that you get rid of him."
Rango looked at him seriously. Then he shook his head. "No. Not in this way."
He started a new run, but Beans held him back. "Rango, please don't."
Their eyes met and Rango knew she was afraid. Not only about him.
He turned around and held her shoulders calmly. "I'm sorry Beans. But I can't accept that he ends like that."
Beans swalllowed. "And what if it is our last moment together, if he comes back..."
Rango lowered his glance. "Maybe. But if they bring him away, I don't know how long Jake has time to live."
They embraced each other.
Bill snorted with disgust. "If you wanna get him, you have to go now. The train will not wait for you."
"Train!" Rango loosed his grip around Beans. "He wanted to bring him to a train. Where are the next railways?"
He looked at Cassy. "The rails aren't far away. You have to ride, maybe four miles northwards."
She looked at him sadly. "I'm sorry. I can't guide you."
"It's okay. Take care for your husband."
He left them and ran outside where Kinski and Stump were busy to put Castigo's body on a roadrunner.
Rango looked around wildly. "I need a roadrunner! Immediately!"
"Uh, ... Here you are." Chorizo couldn't finish his sentence and Rango jumped on the running animal.
"I want to come with you," Beans cried.
Rango stopped few seconds. "No Beans, you stay here. I'm really serious about this."
Then he rode away.
Stump scratched his head. "Where does he want to go?
Kinski shrugged his shoulders. "Something stupid, I think."
Beans stood there, looking after Rango, but before ahe could move her feeth, Bill held her dress. "Better do what he says."
Beans took the end of her dress out of his hands. "Let it be!"
She looked at him angrily, but then she became nosy.
"Why did you come back?"
"As I said before, I hate it to go away with empty pockets."
He walked away.
"Are you sure?"
Bill turned around and looked at her with angry eyes. "Yes, I'm sure."
