Time was running out. You and Reacher were investigating a case that ran deep. Reacher knew the victim's family needed to be put in witness protection since they could possibly be in danger. Finlay knew a guy that was part of the FBI, Picard; He offered to watch over the two kids and wife as he brought them to a safe house. However, Picard couldn't keep it up forever, as he was taking "vacation days" to watch over them. You knew someone else had to watch out for the two kids and the victim's wife, so you take over watch for him. Reacher would keep investigating as you planned to stay there a few days.

As a time passed, something in the back of Reacher's head was bugging him. Something didn't add up. The way Picard offered to watch out for the family, conviently having a safe house, suddenly not being able to watch out for the family. Reacher dug deeper till he realized Picard was dirty. He took his car over there as fast as he could to get to you, and the family.

"Just hold on till I get there. Try to hide for as long as you can from Picard and his guys." Reacher told you as you were on the phone with him, the phone held in one hand to your ear as the other was holding the gun, pointing to the ground. The family stayed close and hid like you told them to

So you and the family left the cabin, but yall were in the middle of the woods. What were you supposed to do to protect them other than having a gun?
