LV Confrontation
We make it to the other side and I got serious feeling of déjà vu it was like I had somehow doubled back to the hallway where all our cells had been. Of course it probably didn't help that I felt that 'call' from Megan again as soon as I stepped out of the connecting hallway.
Boy did she sound desperate but it was like a sirens call I knew where she was in this side.
I started running I didn't even look back as I yelled out to the men behind me "Find the adults and older children and free them. I'm going after Megan." I heard the pound of feet behind me and knew at least one of them was following me but I never looked to see who.
I slow down when I approach the right 'door' after all I don't want to give myself a way to the enemy (Oh look Richard a PLAN!)(not really, just common sense I didn't know you had any)(See I have some stop raising, giving me that look you know what I mean) I can hear voices in the room and as I stand just outside of view by the door way I can make out what they are saying.
"Tell me where she was planning to go now or you will be the reason she has no family to come back for!"
I peak around the door jamb and see the leader of these guys laying into Megan who he has a hold of.
I see off to the side of the room all my family surrounded by guards. 'Damn where the fuck did all these men come from anyway.'
The leader is still threatening her and I can see that Megan is terrified and that she is starting to believe that he is right that if my family were to die it would be her fault for not telling him what she knows.
I had to do something to snap her out of that thought and so I took a calculated risk. I waited until she was turning away from his words and looking in the direction of the doorway. I stepped into the doorway so she could see me then stepped back out of sight.
Megan sweet courageous Megan looked at this man and told him where I was hiding. (ha ha ha I love this part) She said "You want to know where she is? You really want to know where she is? Alright I'll tell you where she is. She is up your ass you fucking piece of shit son of a bitch bastard!"
You know someone has made a lasting impression when the guys own men burst out laughing after they heard that. In fact everyone burst out laughing after they heard that. I sunk to the ground with my hands over my mouth trying to cover my laughter.
As you may have guessed he was less then amused. He struck her in the mouth so hard she fell to the ground at his feet. "You bitch! I will have all the families brought in and you can watch as I kill them all for your back talk to me."
You know what I think it's time to practice my death glare. I appear in the doorway and say "You were looking for me you fucking little asshole I'm right here now keep your filthy hands off her."
My family was over joyed to see me alive. I could hear them in their corner but I could not look over. I couldn't let myself become distracted right now I had to find a way to get them out of this room alive.
"Megan get over to my family now." I say to the girl without breaking eye contact with that piece of shit leader.
She scrambles from the ground and obeys. I guess my death glare is working because I just saw the man flinch and gulp in fear.
"So you get you jollys out of terrorizing little girls but I guess I'm too much of a woman for you to handle because I was never afraid of you or your asshole guards. Your reign of fear is over I'm taking all of us away today and you will never come after us again."
"I couldn't have said it better myself little one. Now get your family out of here and we will handle the rest." A voice spoke from the shadows.
That was a really cool trick I'll have to remember how effective it is (Shut up guys).
LVI When Did I Ever Listen
I am smirking as I turn toward the voice (Yes Richard it was your smirk) and I see laughing guy and gray place guy standing there. I nod my head and run over to my family and Megan.
I look at the guards and see one that is just young enough that he can still be taught about 19 or so. He had short brown hair with hazel eyes and laugh lines on his face.
"If you want to live longer I suggest that you release them now." I tell them with all honesty.
They drop their grips on my family so fast you'd think my family was radioactive or something.
"Mom, Dad, Jared, Toni, Amanda we will have time to reunite later but right now I need to get you out and finish what I started." I could see tears in all their eyes and it streamed down their faces.
I wanted to hug them so bad it hurt but I knew once we latched on we would not be letting go anytime soon.
I turned to the young guard and made a promise with him "I will speak on your behalf and possibly save your life if you escort my family and this girl safely back to where the other adults are located."
The young man's eyes got huge but when he saw I was completely serious in my statement all he did was nod his head.
I then turned to Megan and said "let our guard know about this bargain we struck there are people who came with me to save us all and they will be killing every guard they see. I don't want him dead before I have a chance to save his life."
She only nods in reply as she tries to control her tears.
I watch as my loved ones are escorted back by the young guard and a few others who hope I might speak for them as well if they help.
The other guards who were close enough to hear my words they started running away and hoping they can disappear before my allies catch up to them. I say good luck they'll need it.
I turn back around to face the men they just look at me like 'you were supposed to go with them'.
I look at them and said "no I need to know so I can reassure the others. I ran away once and mystery guy disappeared if you die I want to be able to tell the men you are with all the details. Besides you never said I had to leave so I won't. "
LVII Decision Making
They gave each other a look like 'I'm proud but aggravated at her decision'. They then turned around and discussed who got to kill who.
"I want the ugly one."
"Dude which one is the ugly one"
"Good point they are all ugly. Okay I want this half of the uglys and you have that half."
"No fair I wanted those uglys."
"Too bad I called them first."
I couldn't resist adding to the conversation. "You know if you don't decide soon they just might be able to find enough brain cells amongst them to figure out they could run away while you argue."
Both of them together reply "nah they're too stupid for that. Besides they wouldn't succeed even if we gave them a head start. Should we give them a head start?"
"Hell no!" I answer that question quick.
The guards at this point gulp as they realize their fate.
"Who gets the supper ugly one in the mask?"
I answer that question with pain filled rage voice. "Mystery guy after all that is his killer."
They look back at me and see the emotions I can't contain then they look at the leader. Even from where I stand I can see the evil gleam enter their eyes.
As they say in unison "that ones for the boss." And they start to chuckle.
Well looks like a decision has finally been made, poor bastards. (I know you put on that show for me.)(huh?)
LVIII Compensating
Whatever is about to happen here we go (God in Heaven these people can fight). They turn to face the terrorists and get into what I guess is their fighting stance. It must have included one hell of a scary face because all of the terrorists gulp.
From out of fucking nowhere they draw weapons. Gray place guy draws a staff and holds it at the ready. Laughing guy draws this huge fucking ass sword. 'What is it with these guys and having swords that are bigger than they are.'
They glance at each other and smirk then gray place guy turns toward me and says with a wink "they are compensating." (Aww at least he is honest in his statement I mean look at his choice of weapon.) (WHAT THE FUCKING HELL CHRISTY! I AM NOT COMPENSATING WITH MY STAFF I HAPPEN TO BE THAT BIG!) (If you were really that big you would look like a lying Pinocchio in your trousers.) (THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT AND YOU KNOW IT IF YOU DOUBT MY SIZE I CAN SHOW IT TO YOU!) (Sweat heart I would take back that offer before my husband and Becka get together to find out why you want to get naked in front of me.) (NOW GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY JOURANAL GODDAMNIT!)
Anyway as I was saying laughing guy had this huge ass sword that I later learned was called a Katana. (I was not compensating for anything you can ask any of my past relationships or Maze if you doubt me.) (Oh he really isn't compensating for anything trust me Christy he is that big) (Maze you realize that children could be reading this so keep it clean will you I want them to stay innocent.) (This coming from the girl who brought up Pinocchio besides children are never innocent) (I will have you know I was completely innocent until I reached the age of 8.) (That is only because your military training is lacking) (Not everyone is a military clone Maze some of us were actually allowed to have lives.) (WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH EVERYONE THINKING THEY CAN WRITE NOTES IN MY JOURNAL! STAY OUT YOU FUCKING MEDDELSOME BASTARDS!) (I only comment when I see blatant inaccuracies Christy if you want proof of the inaccuracies you need only just ask.)
LIX The Fight I Think
So there we were they had their weapons drawn and as I watched them they just disappeared. I know there was a fight that went on because I saw the guards' bodies drop to the ground but I never saw the blow that took them.
Of gray place guy I would see him in the corner of my eye but when I turned to look fully he was gone. If not for the fact I had physically touched him I would have thought he was a fucking ghost.
The only time I saw laughing guy was when he was in front of the leader. He was getting ready to swing his sword when I guess he remembered he was going to keep him alive. So with his sword still raised he lashes out with his other fist and punches him right in the face.
I admit I giggled he knocked the leader out with one punch I am so learning that trick.
The fight really didn't last that long it ended in like two minutes if that. When they approached me laughing guy had the leader over his shoulder and there was no blood on them.
I mean blood splattered the walls on the other side of the room but there was not one drop of blood on them at all. I really want to learn that trick. (Oh stop laughing I can hear you from here.)
"Alright it looks like this side of the H is the same as my side so I should be able to lead us to where the others are at." I tell them.
They just nod their heads and I turn around to do just what I said.
LX Reunion
As we walked down the corridor in hopefully the right direction I could tell my guess was a good one. I could hear voices from up ahead a lot of voices. But I knew it wasn't the sound of battle I was hearing I just witnessed one of those and knew what it sounded like. This was different.
The closer we got the more clearly you could hear the joy in the voices. On my face was a smile that slowly grew into a joyous grin and I quickened my pace.
Then we were there it was them all of them and my joy could not be contained. With a shout of joy and tears in my eyes (weird that they wouldn't fall. NO COMMENTING) I ran toward them.
At the sound of my joy they all turned and with one loud shout of "CHRISTY!" the crowd parted for my family to get through. With tears in their own eyes they ran towards me.
When we met they swooped me up into their arms and my feet would not touch the ground for a while. They passed me form body to body and hugged me so tight I feared I would never draw breath again. I would have threatened to disown them all if they even thought of loosening their grip.
My family when they were ready to share me with the others my dad carried me to the group. There I was passed around just like with my family. I felt like I was a priceless heirloom in their hands.
With much laughing crying and barely coherent words of thanks our reunion was complete. In all this time the men that came with me that brought me back and made this possible never said a word. (Thanks for giving us our moment guys it meant a lot.)
