"We managed to save the baby." The woman said. Gecp went into the hut and heard the cries of a newborn child. He cut the umbilical cord and left without a word.


The night was still cold and dark. Gecp walked back to the beach. He could hear the crashing of the ocean waves and the whistle of the winds. Jim was dead, most of the men who fought to protect the village were dead, Nefix was dead and now Delilah was dead. Gecp walked back to the place Delilah died. He looked at the blood stained sand as the wind slowly blew it away.

Gecp kneeled down and cried. Tears one by one dropped slowly.

It had been a few hours as Gecp kneeled there. He wiped the tears of his face. Delilah would want him to be strong for her and his newborn son. So he went back to the nursing hut. The newborn baby was wrapped in cloth and was sleeping in a crib made of wood. The baby lied on the cushions knotted by grass.

Gecp picked up his son and held him in his arms. The baby woke up and began to cry. Gecp comforted him until the baby stopped.

"You look a lot like your mom." Gecp said to his son. The baby cooed.

"You have her eyes… those amber brown eyes. They're beautiful." Gecp said. The baby coughed a little.

Gecp smiled. He gently placed the baby back into the crib.

"I don't know what to name you… I'm sorry. I'll let the women in the village decide on that." Gecp stroked his son's soft hair.

Than Gecp's heart broke, he was reminded of Delilah.

"I promise. Your mother will be avenged, I know that horrible man…" Gecp took a paused and very softly said "who killed her…wasn't the only one responsible"

Gecp kissed him on the forehead.

Gecp took out of his pocket the Yin and Yang necklace Nefix gave him earlier and wrapped it around his neck.

He began exiting the hut.

"I love you…"


Gecp wore a plain forest green T-shirt and dark blue jeans with moccasins. His village would wear western clothing because once a month one of the men would go to the west country of Roblox and trade gold from the coal mines for new technology.

Gecp had his katana strapped to his back, a brown sac with a rope as a strap hung over his shoulder and Gecp took one of the canoes. Gecp dropped the sack into the canoe and began to untie it from the dock.

"Where are you going?"

Gecp quickly turned around.

Becp stood there confused yet sad.

Gecp came close to Becp and hugged his brother.

"The village isn't safe… those men from the west…they'll come back. With more soldiers this time, you need to tell the people of the village I went to finish this." Gecp embraced with Becp.

"Please don't go!" Becp cried.

"Protect your nephew, train hard." Gecp said as he ruffled Becp's hair.

"Are you going to come back?" Becp asked

"I will! I promise I'll return!" Gecp shouted as he slowly rowed away. Becp smiled. Hearing those words comforted him. His older brother would return to island to train Becp and his nephew and they would be one big happy family.

But that never happened.
