When we finally stopped,I let Yakul run around for a bit. I didn't
want to be seen. So,is this the part where I make my escape,I thought. Is
this the part where I run away for good? What am I supposed to do now? No.
I can't do that yet. Not now.
"So,what are you going to do?"asked a voice behind me.
I turned around in surprise to find Jack,and Will. I sat down on a large rock and thought for a while. Jack came over and put his hands on my shoulder. "I'm not going to run away. But why did you leave me? Why did you come back? I thought you were dead. And it's like you've come back to haunt me or something,"I started to cry.
"Shhhh...It's ok."
I looked up at him and smiled. "I'm glad you came back."
"So am I. I'm sorry I left you."
"You're going to leave me again aren't you?"
"I have to."
My smile then turned into a frown. "I thought so. You aren't coming back."
"I never said I wasn't going to."
"I want to come with you."
"No. I don't want you getting hurt. You need to stay here."
"Why do you care so much?"
"Because I love you."
"SISTER SISTER!!"yelled someone coming up the hill. It was Kaya! She ran up to my arms and started to cry.
"What is it?!"
"The village...!"
I looked to the north. My eyes widened as the smoke started to rise. "What happened?"
"I don't know. There were these men running around with torches,setting the village on fire. I couldn't find you..." She was still sobbing.
"Shhhhhh...It's ok." I started to think about what my father had done and realized there was only one thing I had to do. Go down there myself. "I have to go down there."
"But you'll die!"said Will.
"I have to do this. I have to get revenge for my father." I layed Kaya down on the rock and started to walk toward the village. I'm sorry Jack,I thought. But I have to do this. I don't care if I die. I'm getting my revenge.
But Jack wouldn't let me go so easily. He ran over to my and grabbed my arm. "What do you think you're doing?!"
"I'm sorry Jack. But I have to do this!"
"I'm not going to let you die on me."
"Do you think this is easy for me? Was it easy for me to see you leave me? I'm sorry. But I have to go."
"No... I won't let you!"
"This is the only choice I have. Please,let me go." He then took his hands off me. I got on Yakul and rode down to the village.
