Chapter 2
The days wore on with blood and the sounds of clashing swords. Rose and I were just finishing our dinner on the third night of the battle, most of everyone was asleep and we were whispering quietly to each other.
"How long do you think this will last" rose asked me. The mixture of the moonlight and the light from the fire casting eerie shadows across the battle tattoos every warrior gets at the age you personally become a warrior. Rose me and Alice had gotten ours at age eight but let's not get into that now.
"I don't know, but it can't last long some of those men can't stand a chance to us." hey I wasn't getting cocky if that was what anyone was thinking, I was just sure of my people. "Yeah maybe your right. A lot of the men had stopped right in the middle of battle to watch us riding our horses upside down and hanging on the side. It was like they had never seen someone ride a horse like that, especially women!" rose smirked. I laughed softly remembering the astounded faces.
I and rose had continued talking into the night when all of a sudden there was a couple of twigs snapping. Ok I know what you're thinking it could be anything or whatever, but there was a difference of pressure from the sound of it actually snapping. Rose and the glanced up and started to check our surroundings for subject of the noise. Swearing was heard at one side of the village and we walked over to check it out when all you could hear was screaming coming from the place we had just left earlier.
"Shit!" rose yelled, but I could barely hear her over the roar of the fire. We like everyone else got our weapons because we could suddenly see the enemy surrounding us. The basterds had trapped us in this hell hole of raging fire.
The stupid idiots! What kind of men attack people when there sleeping, where is your courage and pride!
It sickens me to think that they would do such a thing. "This war is so not over" I whispered, "the bastards are so going down" I said quietly with as much venom in my voice as I could muster. "Hell yes they are" rose said with as much venom in her voice as me. Well I guess she heard me, I smirked.
"Let the games began" we both said smirking evilly and getting ready to fight once more with the rest of our people.
