Taylor stood back respectably but kept a close lookout all around him. At the moment all looked pretty clear. No one was in this part of the graveyard except for them and several gardeners. He wasn't too happy with his line of sight, the headstones being too high for his liking but he could work around that. He walked around her fathers headstone in a full circle looking all around and he began to get an uneasy feeling. Something was wrong. His training and instincts knew it but his brain hadn't caught up yet. He reached inside his jacket and pulled out his gun putting it down by his side. He began to walk towards Marise still scanning the entire area trying to figure out what was spooking him.
The path to the limo was clear and the funeral was too far away. The few people that he had seen on the way in were all in another part of the cemetery and no one had approached and the gardeners were still over by their cart loading their tools back on to it. Suddenly his eyes zoomed in on them and he took in the scene in greater detail. 3 men in brand new coveralls, new sneakers that were sparkling clean, and clean tools. Oh shit.
"Marise get down it's a trap," he yelled as he fired off a couple of shots at the men that he knew had virtually no chance of hitting them. Unlike the movies hitting a target while running full pelt was not easy, especially if it was moving. All he wanted was to distract them though so he could get between them and his boss. He succeeded and he grabbed Marise by her shoulders and shoved her behind her fathers headstone. "Stay there and stay safe."
Turning around he put himself between the men and Marise. Damn no cover and nowhere to run. Well not an ideal situation. They had pulled automatic hand guns and were firing at him. Luckily they were crap shots and did not know how to compensate for the kick of the automatic weapon. He crouched down and fired off a few careful shots and one of the men went down. One of them stopped and took cover looking down at his weapon while the other just charged him wild eyed. A single shot to his head put him down, but as he was dealing with him the other guy stood up and put two careful rounds in his chest. Twisting he fell against the headstone and looked down at Marise. "Stay there and wait until you can surprise him," he gasped "Wait for my signal."
Taylor could hear the man walking up confidently now and when he judged the moment right he flopped down and shot him in the leg. God that hurt but he hoped that Marise finished him off.
