Pulling himself away, O'Malley aimed at Adam's chest, cocked the hammer, and fired. Missing the heart and lungs, the bullet lodged in his spine. Adam felt a fire burning in his chest. He stared at O'Malley, not able to comprehend the sudden turn of events. Suddenly his knees buckled and he collapsed on the floor.
He turned his head toward Frederick who lay next to him. 'We're dead,' Adam thought. 'O'Malley's killed us.' He was tired, so tired. Darkness enveloped him.
