(sorry I haven't updated in a while, but I've been really busy. Without
further adieu)
The group of youngsters, now minus one, waited impatiently. They'd told Tol
about Kevin's disappearance and he immediately went out to search for him. That had
been several hours ago and everyone wondered if Tol would find Kevin or even if Tol
would return, himself.
Suddenly, Johnny leaned down to listen to something Plank "had to say."
"Guy's, Plank want to know what's gonna happen to us even if we happen to be
of any help. He says we don't have anything to live for afterwards."
"I guess we'll have to make a new life for ourselves." Suggested Edd.
It was then that they heard a hissing sound from the next room. Despite the
fatigue they felt, the kids managed to pulls themselves up and prepare themselves for
whatever was there.
After a moment, the hissing stopped and a lone figure walked into the room. At
first, they couldn't believe what they were seeing. However, the sour expression put their
minds at ease.
"Kevin, you're alive!" Yelled Nazz, running over to hug him.
The others also told of their relief at seeing him alive. However, their time of joy
was soon ended as something came in the same way Kevin had. It was none other then
the snake man. Stunned by the sight of him, the kids leapt back into defensive positions
again.
"Take it easy." Announced Kevin. "This is Randar. He saved me from one of
Black's goons. Good thing too. I mistook the guy for a kid like us."
"You s-s-s-s-s-should never go out there alone like that." Continued Randar.
"Victor Black is very intelligent. He has-s-s-s a way of tricking people."
After the whole experience they'd just received, the group worked harder and
harder in training. Soon, they each discovered a part of their new life they excelled at.
Ed, being the strongest, was easily the best hand-to-hand fighter. His only
problem was his lack of concentration. Edd had studied every book Tol had down there
and learned almost everything he needed to know about the history of the new world and
most of it's new inhabitants. Eddy found that his scamming skill could be put to good
use in this time in tricking enemies.
Rolf felt very much at home in this new world since he hadn't used very many
modern items during his former life, so he had little adjusting to do for his new one.
Johnny, being used to translating for Plank, found his nitch learning other languages used
around the new world.
Nazz and Sarah were fast becoming expert archers and even Jimmy was
beginning to learn to fight.
Perhaps the most changed, was Kevin. After his encounter with Randar, he'd
stepped his training up more then anyone, trying to learn everything he could, so he'd be
prepared next time he went out.
Finally, the day they'd waited so long for came. During dinner, Tol stood up
before the group with a big announcement.
"You kids have all done better then anyone could've expected. Now it's time for
us to do our part to save what's left of the world. Tomorrow, we go out there."
