Danny has made his choice. In a flash, Danny draws his gun and blasts a hole into Rad's head. With a sense of Deja vu, Rad falls onto the floor once again, except this time onto his open grave. Rad was dead on the gravel, blood pouring out from the back of his head, sizzling to the heat, soaking into the ground. His blank eyes stared out into the void above. Danny tucks in his gun, observing what remains of his former teacher. Brandon was visibly disturbed at what had occurred.
"Crap..." Brandon said to himself.
"He had it coming." Danny states.
"Maybe. I know we've hurt people before but that just didn't feel... right."
"Who cares? He's gone for good now. He can't screw over anyone else." Jesse replies while kicking sand onto Rad's corpse.
"Not even me." She said after with a softer tone.
Danny walks over and puts a hand on her shoulder. "He won't hurt anyone ever again." He assures her.
She gives a small glance but promptly looks back down with a slight sigh.
"I've had enough of this stupid town. Let's get out of here, for sure this time." Danny says to the pair.
They both agree. All three of them start to walk out of town together. The sky got cloudy and grim, a dark night was approaching. On the way out Danny looks behind to see crows had already started to pick on Rad's body. Plucking out his eyeballs. Digging out his brain through his gunshot wound and tender flesh from other soft spots on the human body. Danny then looks over to Jesse.
"So, what are you gonna do now?" Danny asked.
"I don't know yet. Just do whatever in town... I guess." Jesse said with uncertainty.
"You could hang out with us." Danny suggests.
Jesse turns her head to look at him, she has a look of contempt. "I'm not so sure." she replies.
"We wouldn't mind someone else tagging along." Brandon says supporting the idea.
Jesse takes a moment to think it over. She then comes to a conclusion. "I suppose that isn't a terrible idea. You guys don't seem all bad." She says.
"Then I think it's safe to say it's official. Welcome to your new team." Danny replies.
The gang finally take their leave out from the forsaken old settlement. Leaving behind all the ghosts from an era long forgotten to rest once more. As for the wicked one, he will fade away from memory and remain there alone till the end of time.
