Lady Tigeress- Maybe it will turn out well, maybe not. It's a toss up right now. Personally I would disappear off of the face of the earth. And if I did end up having to submit... well, I'll put it this way, I'd feel sorry from the poor sucker who was forced to be my husband, but not as much as I would for the government. It is an interesting possibility, and it makes sense in the world that I created. Relena Kushrenada is going to last to the end, no matter how it turns out. Thanks for reviewing.
Bama- Forth Block Drama? What's that? I went back and fixed all the spelling and grammar mistakes I could find. I'm glad that you are enjoying it. There will be some major action in this one. I've got a couple of major twists coming up. I hope you don't get caught. Thanks for your review.
Chapter 10
I haven't meet my fiancé yet. I am to meet him today in about an hour. I figured that since I have time to kill that I might as well record what happened on the mission I was part of. We infiltrated the slaver's camp. And that was the easy part. Let me explain that the easy part included tunneling through a muddy field to avoid the electrified barbed wire fence, into a section heavily laced with mine, hidden hole, and other booby traps. After that we had to climb over a glass coated steel wall into a section guarded by extremely and vicious lions and tigers. Then over a third wall which was peppered with manned guard towers, inside of which was the slaver's camp, and the difficult part.
Now, one reason that we had gotten through the walls and other booby traps, set to protect the slaver's camp, was because we had paid off an informant, but it seems that we were double-crossed. The only reason that I am still alive and sitting here writing this account is because the slaver's made two mistakes. The first was that they over estimated the worth and quality of their security system, and the second is that they under estimated our ingenuity and determination. It seems that our informant told them that we would be coming. The whole camp was waiting for us. We ducked into a tent in the quadrant that was used to hold slaves. They protected us by making us look and act like them, so we would look like just another slave.
It worked, but only because the slavers didn't know how many slaves they had, due to the fact that they had gotten another shipment three days ago, and hadn't had time to count them. We stayed in the slaves tents for two days and a night to rest up and plan. We had decided that we couldn't, in good faith, leave the captured slaves behind, especially when they had done so much to help us. When we started the escape, our team split up. Half of us were to lead, and if necessary, carry the slaves to freedom, while the other half would distract or incapacitate the slavers. We moved as quickly and as silently as possible, but apparently not fast or silent enough, as we were forced to leave some behind. Even so this part of the rebellion has almost doubled in size, as many of the slaves wished to join us.
In case we ever have to infiltrate this slavers camp again, I am going to record how we got past and where all the traps were. With tunneling, especially when muddy, be sure that you start on the south side and dig at an angle, it is less likely that you'll be caught, or that the tunnel will collapse, trust me, I know. The traps in the first section were set up in tight Xs for the first half of the section, and then went to slim diagonals, be careful where you put your feet, especially when you are near the middle of the section. With the glass and steel wall be sure you have a long rope (about thirty-five to fifty feet as the wall is approximately twelve feet high) with a hook in the middle. Start by throwing the hook, when it is firmly attached to the wall have the first person start climbing holding one end of the rope. The person can drop it down the other side and climb down with out having to wait for everyone to get on the wall. I'd suggest knotting the rope, as it makes it a lot easier. To keep the wild animals away carry water balloons filled with ammonia and bleach (nine parts ammonia to every one part bleach). when an animal gets with in throwing distance, toss one at them. They hate the smell and it will drive them away. Carry lots of these balloons. You should still have the rope from the second wall, repeat on southern corner of the third wall, this is the only place that you won't be seen.
If you followed the directions above you will be in the slave's quadrant. Be careful, the quadrant diagonal to this one it the slaver's quadrant. The quadrant on either side are the selling and shipment quadrant and the garden quadrant. The slaves quadrant is a maze of tents, cloths lines, small gardens, and assorted rubbish.
Going to the right is the garden quadrant. The garden quadrant is flat with hundreds of even rows, all neatly labeled. This is where all of the women, regardless of them being slave or otherwise, and children who can walk work. There is usually at least one woman and or child in it at all times.
The quadrant to the right of the garden quadrant is the slavers quadrant. The slavers quadrant has neat, broad, cobbled streets trimmed with small flower gardens or hedges. The tents that line the street are large, costly, and beautiful. It's beautiful appearance is deceitful, though, as this is the most dangerous quadrant.
The last quadrant is the selling quadrant. The buy and selling of slaves is only part of what goes on here though. This is where the new shipments of slaves is brought in. This is also where slaves go to be checked for illness, and either killed or given a prescription, depending on how serious the illness is found to be. It is also the place where slaves that were sold are allowed to say their last goodbyes here. It section off with in itself, and each part of it has it's own section.
My secretary has just informed me that my betrothed has arrived, so I must sing off now. Relena Kushrenada.
