Thursday, December 6, 1917

His bright blue eyes opened yawn " another day of being the capital if Nova Scotia has come" the young man, by the name of Halifax, rubbed his eyes with another weak yawn "another day to reek havoc on unsuspecting targets"

As he got up to go get dressed and styled a large bang noise came out of nowhere and the ground rocked making poor Halifax fall over. "holy lobster claw what was that?" he yelled with a worried tone. He heard lightly in the distance a child yelling his name. He ran to the window as quick as he could and saw a young boy no younger then 10 with dark brown hair. He yelled to the boy "What has happened young lad!" the boy responded quickly " ders a boat on fire in da harbour Mr Halifax sir" "wait there lad, I'll be right down"

when he made it to the young boy he asked for his name. The boy responded quickly again "da names Dartmouth, DON'T FORGET IT!" Halifax stepped back with fright "...ok then, anyway where is the ship at we gotta tell da people to stay away its to dangerous" "right!" Dartmouth said looking more and more serious every second. They started to run for the board walk when they got lost in the crowd of people. All they could only see was the smoke coming from the harbours direction. Seeing the colour of the smoke he new it was bad, he tried telling people next to him to go home but everyone was to fascinated to listen.

Since no one would listen at all he decided to go through the crowd and look for Dartmouth so he could at least get him away. As he finally spotted him in the distance he ran directly for him. As he grabbed his hand and picked him up it was to late to get away. Halifax held dartmouth closely and curled up around him to block anything. BAAAAAM! The ship exploded with loud screams, windows shattering and death. Dartmouth heard all of these sounds being clenched in Halifax's arms hardly getting hit with anything but he could hear Halifax's pain.

As soon as it came it all just stopped and everything was silent Dartmouth could hear was the crackling of the fire. He got out from under Halifax and looked at him. He saw the shards of thick glass sticking out of his back and the blood poring down

"Halifax..."

"I'm fine, are you ok" Halifax said with blood all over his lips

"I-" Before he could say anything he heard an emergency vehicle coming closer and closer

"Thank you, Halifax" Dartmouth said with a tear coming from his eye "help is on the way"

The emergency vehicle pulled up with a screech. They took Halifax on a stretcher then the paramedic went up to Dartmouth

"He's quiet lucky to be alive, looking at his injuries he could have been dead in the next 30 minutes" he said

"Really" Dartmouth feared for his friend

"Yeah, but now that he's with us he should be alright"

they drove off with Halifax and Dartmouth in the back of the emergency vehicle. Dartmouth grabbed Halifax's hand with tear streaming down his face.

"I'm sorry..."
