[ It's over quickly, but the seconds seem to stretch on forever. He steps around the door frame, over the body of the first bounty hunter, and sees the dead man's partner holding Emma in place, his gun in his free hand. And then he sees red.
(It's a familiar feeling, one he's felt before. Seeing someone he cared about, in his own strange way, get hurt and flying into a rage because of it. Stalking from the ruined church with curses on his lips and fire in his blood, unloading both guns in a flurry of vengeance.)
But Emma is tough and resourceful, and in the moment that she manages to escape, the confusion it causes is enough. The man's attention splits for just a second, and Vasquez's rage comes down like a hammer. ]
No volverás a tocarla.
[ He fires one shot into the man's chest and the hunter jerks, tries to bring his gun up. The next bullet goes into the shoulder of his gun arm, and his weapon clatters to the floor. The third bullet tears through his leg, dropping him to one knee. The fourth, and final, hits the man right between the eyes.
The bounty hunter remains upright for a comical second, as if he didn't realize that he should be dead, before collapsing to the floor. ]
