Chapter 3

A family reunion

"Be quiet pretend you don't know me for now.", I whispered.

"Fine.", he said.

When I opened the sewer lid in the alley, I saw my father's face scrunch up.

"Get used to it.", I growled. I jumped down and was followed by my father. I showed him our campsite and Willow along with the other finally came back.

"Hey sis, guess who.", I flicked my head up as if pointing at my father.

"Who is it? Looks like the blacksmith that almost tried to kill you once, Shadow.", Christian frowned clearly not happy with him here.

"In fact it is, I just found out, he's my father…", I looked at the ground, cursing myself.

There was a bang at the sewer lid where we got in and out of here.

"I know you're in here kids! Come out!", we heard a man shout.

Guards! How have they found us.

"Guys help!", I heard Hippie shout.

"Come on already.", I then heard Galaxy from behind me.

"I'll get dad into our hiding place and you guys get weapons be ready!", I growled quietly.

Grabbing my dad's arm I ran quickly and went into the hiding place, "Stay here!"

I went to join the others in the battle against some of the guards. I had grabbed my sword and pistol, my weapons. I stabbed a few but no deaths were to be made, my group made an oath never to kill. The guards ended up running away from a war they started.

" We have to get out of here, we're not safe here now that they know where we are.", I started to rush everyone to the center of the room.

I heard a gunshot and felt pain. Everyone was staring at me, and Willow had shot the guard that had hid the whole time. I fell to my knees with a smile and passed out.
