Chapter 10 - The Start of a New Revolution

"Okay, I want all of the miners over there, and all of the woodcutters on the other side! Then I want all of my pures over on that side! Quickly now!"

Everyone obediently listened and got to where they were supposed to be at. Lots of the men were excited to be getting orders by their favorite hero, Zamorak. Others were scared, as if they were to pass out any minute. Matt and a few others knew what was going to happen next.

Zamorak smiled. "Good..very good..." His place was so silent, that even a tiny movement with your feet would make a loud sound.

"Do you all want to know what I want everyone to do right now? And what is expected from me throughout?" Most of them shook their heads.

"All of you guys.. depending on what kind of job you have.. will be working for me." Everyone who favored Zamorak was cheering wildy. They couldn't believe they were actually working for Zamorak, which had probably been their dreams for the longest time.

"But there is one exception. If one of you slacks off even a tiny bit, I will throw you in the dungeon, and my elite guards will handle you from there on." Everyone became silent again, and the people who favored Zamorak were having second thoughts at that moment.

Zamorak then brought over his most prized bodyguard. "This is Tarkum. He has been working for me for a couple years now. He is the most hardworking bodyguard I have ever seen. Out of the 150 bodyguards I used to have, I narrowed it down to 20."

One of the men blurted out,"What happened to the other bodyguards you eliminated?"

Zamorak greedily smiled,"I killed them all, of course. Anyone who stays here, never goes back." Now everyone who had volunteered because they were on Zamorak's side, felt really bad and that they have fallen into the biggest trap ever. Matt wasn't surprised. He knew all along that Zamorak would do something like this to innocent people.

"Okay, enough talking for today. I bet all of you guys are tired, eh?" Zamorak smirked. "I expect all of you to get ready to work at 4 in the morning starting tomorrow. Breakfast will be served an hour earlier."

Everyone was complaining how it was too early, and Zamorak got furious. "If I hear one more complaint, you will not get to see that person again!" The room became silent once again. "Now, Tarkum, please lead our new guests to their cells."

"As you wish, master." And everyone obediently followed Tarkum.

Why I am doing this..why? thought Matt. I wonder how Kano's doing...Please, I hope she is okay.

Couple months later...

"Hey guys! I'm going to run over to the bank real quick! You guys wait for me, okay?" ordered Kano to her clan.

She went to the bank, and got some of the ores out to start smithing. She was about to leave when a couple of Zamorak's best fighters blocked the entrance. Kano quickly hid somewhere so she wouldn't be seen.

"Hand over all of your belongings! Everyone, now!" shouted one of the officers fiercely. Many of the innocent people there were deathly afraid of them, so they listened and took out all of their best items and gave to them. "If I see anyone trying to hide any rare items from us will automatically be sentenced to death, ordered by the almighty Zamorak!" More people coughed up their precious belongings. But one brave woman objected to this.

"I'm not doing it." she replied with a strong tone.

One of the officers motioned to the other officers to back away. "I can handle this one, you guys."

That officer took off his helmet. The confident, brave woman immediately turned scared and shocked.

"My...my son... it can't..! Is it really you, my son!" She sobbed crazily.

The officer stood there, not saying a word, not feeling any sympathy. "I am not your son. I am of Zamorak's. No one else."

"But.. But... It is you! Please, son, please stop this for once! How could you betray me and the other villagers? You were for Guthix, not that bitchy Zamorak!"

"I do not know you. Hand over your belongings at once, or I shall kill you like the others here."

The woman couldn't believe that her son was actually making her own mother do this, and being very weak now, she meekly handed over the items.

The officer smiled evilly. He fatally shot the woman, and was found dead in the bank. "Thanks mom for the stuff. I really appreciate it." The other officers laughed wildly and headed out back to Zamorak's place.

Everyone frantically left the bank. What the hell has just happened? That guy killed his own mom! Omg.. I don't feel so good now... This is ruining everything! Runescape is falling apart!
