A continutation of the story arc beginning with Twelve days of Christmas.

Fight.

Jayne dropped his weapons. The bad guys had a gun pointed at his weak spot so he just gave in and down to the ground they went.

“Mr Niska” the ugliest one spoke into his communicator “we’ve got them.”

Jayne cursed as Kaylee looked at him in disbelief, brown eyes wide. He wanted her outta there.

They hadn’t searched her yet, she still had the pop gun he gave her hidden in her sock.

They’d already taken his guns but his knives were the closest weapons anyways, close to Kaylee’s feet, and she was near the alleyway exit. He signalled her silently with looks from his eyes and finger movements.

From the look in Kaylee’s eyes Jayne knew she wanted to argue with what he was askin’.

He frowned at her impatiently and her expression changed to one of unhappy acceptance as she slumped into a pretend faint.

The two captors holdin’ her arms bent forward, a third turned round to see what the fuss was about and Jayne took his chance. Lungin’ forward he grabbed for his knives as Kaylee pulled her gun and shot the men holdin’ her.

“Go” he yelled as he ducked behind a convenient crate.

“I’ll get the captain Jayne” Kaylee whirled and ran just like he wanted.

The Captain was out somewhere on the planet and Jayne doubted that he would arrive in time to help.

If Mal did come, good, but Jayne was set anyway on makin’ sure none of the bad guys followed Kaylee. He’d die first. If that was goin’ to happen, he figured that he may as well take as many of the wang bad ans with him as he could.

Didn’t much care what happened to him, so long as his family were safe.

Wang bad ans = bastards
