River smiled smugly. Kaylee looked aghast at the three dead men. Three dead with three shots. River held the gun in her hand as if it belonged there. Kaylee couldn’t remember how it had gotten from her hand to River's. She couldn’t function properly. Thoughts came so very slowly. River was sweet and harmless. She hadn’t even looked at the men she'd killed. Try as she might, Kaylee could not keep the fear from showing in her eyes. She simply couldn’t help feeling afraid. She was afraid before River even came. Now she was terrified. Of the dead men. Of the gun. Of River. How frightening she was with the gun in her hand. Yet she managed to retain her look of beautiful innocence.
