"The lady is very pretty no matter what she said that girl is mine," Dave said boldly. "That is a story of another day our boss has gone we need to do something about the bush men," Jack said. "We already have the guns and the binoculars also the horses are ready," Steve said. "What are you suggesting that we do?" Dave asked. "We need to trace where the bushmen are living, very soon we are going to invade them," Jack said. "But the boss will not like the idea," Dave said. "What is the plan I see you Steve you have a plan?" Jack asked. "The boss is not around he is gone to the meeting we don't have much work to do let's go to the jungle," Steve said. "Our pistols are well loaded and also the horses are ready what are we waiting for?" Steve said. They fixed their pistols in the waistband bolster and headed to the horse stable, they entered the stable and untied the horses and jumped, and set off to the jungle. The guards opened the gate for them they rushed to the jungle to avoid being seen by their boss. They rushed through the forest path into the inner part of the forest. "It's about five kilometers now please let's control our horses we need to be careful," Steve said. Horses refused to continue with the journey Steve sensed something he alighted from the horse he saw the footprint. "Here are some footprints also the horses have sensed danger" Steve reiterated. He removed his pistol and prepared it to shoot. "Let's walk towards the bushmen by foot let's leave the horses here," Steve said. Steve led as they walk slowly by slowly through the jungle Steve saw the smoke hovering inside the jungle. "I think we are about to reach where the bushmen are I can see the smoke hovering into the sky," Steve said. "Avoid making a movement that can attract the attention of the Bushmen," Steve said. They walked slowly by slowly they saw many bushmen walking to and fro from their village others slaughtering the animals they stole from the hacienda and around the village are heavily armed village guards, guarding the village women who were busy doing the household chores as children were playing. "Here is where the herds of cattle are being brought young men are slaughtering the animals they are having a great feast," Steve said. He removed the binoculars and observed closely what was going on in the village. "We have also the captives where do they arrest people and put them into captivity? Jack asked. "I think from the neighboring villages or maybe where they normally go to steal for a living," Steve said. Jack removed his binoculars and observed the bushmen. "You mean they are wearing traditional clothing hide and skin?" Jack said. "Yes they are in their different world they don't have the luxury they live in their natural live" Dave said. "I admire them there is no competition not like us we need a car a nice house to go to a good expensive school," Dave said. The bushmen gathered and a man and a lady were brought in front of them and a ceremony started. "I think they are doing the customary marriage the two are getting married today," Jack said. The old men came towards the bride and the groom and performed the traditional ceremony as they watch there was a lady passing coming from the stream and taking the water to the village spotted them, Jack Dave, and didn't see her. As they observed the marriage ceremony they were surrounded by the village guards. "Who are you?" One of the guards asked. They were very shocked and surprised that they had been discovered they looked at each other. The guards looked at them closely Steve looked at their guns he realized that they were not prepared to shoot. "We are from the hacienda" Steve responded. "Why are you intruding on our private life?" The village guard asked. "We got lost from the jungle we were hunting" Dave responded. Steve thought hard he realized that the bushmen wanted to arrest them and tie them Steve looked at Dave and Jack they realized that Steve meant that they fight. They quickly removed their pistols and shoot the guard they had the guns in their hands and pushed the others to give way and they rushed to where their horses were and jumped the horses sensed the danger they ran through the jungle into the hacienda, the guards in the hacienda were very surprised on how the horses were running towards the gate of the hacienda they opened and Jack Dave and Steve rushed into the hacienda.
