Chapter 6: Hostages
If I could pick one moment of my life where I was the most scared I would pick this moment. When those eight assassin's walked up to me and bound me with rope I swear I almost peed my pants. Luckily I didn't because then I would die shame, just kidding I didn't actually die oops ruined it but here's what happened.
The assassin's bound all of us. I heard Steven swearing under his breath. 'Dam what are we going to do?' I thought.
When the assassin's finished bounding us with ropes one of them came up in front of us and said "ok you animals like we said earlier you are now are hostages if you attempt to struggle or flee at any time you will shot, am I very clear?"
we all nodded.
"Good now everyone you will follow us where ever we go and do not even speak a single word or we cut off your tongues and you will never speak again. Now since I am done talking all of you start walking right now".
We obeyed and walked in the direction the assassin's pointed us in. They carefully pointed their guns at us as we made are way out of my shop and into the neighborhood. They then told us to turn right going down the street. We headed straight down the street none of us dare to speak a word but we did communicate to each other through blinks and pointing our heads.
The assassin's had us walk out of the neighborhood and into the streets of Bandle city. We knew we were probably walking towards are own deaths but what choice did we have besides die now.
We eventually reached the edge of the city after walking a couple miles and we started to see the gates that led out of the city. 'where are we going?' I thought. As we approached the gate two of the assassin's ran up to where the handles were and opened the big door leading outside of the city. I thought 'shouldn't the gates be guarded especially since it's during an invasion?' But my question wasn't answered and we continued walking after the assassin's opened the gate.
Outside of the city was mostly forest, It's not a tropical rain forest even though we are technically just bellow the tropics of north Rueterra but due to the cold coming down from the sabblestone mountains it moderates the temperature but mostly stay warm year round.
As we headed through the forest I started to hear the assassin's whisper behind us. I thought it was pretty strange but then I remembered that the assassin's are strange people so I immediately discarded the thought. But then all the sudden in the middle of the forest the guards made us stop.
"Ok Yordle's" said the assassin that talked to us earlier. Now that you have successfully got us through the city safely and without any harm by letting us take you as hostages. We require no more use of you and you are now free to go".
"Really!" I shouted.
"Of course not you fool" said the assassin. He walked up to me and slapped me in the face.
"Oww that hurt".
"If that hurt then you are going hate this next part because we are going to kill you now".
"WHAT!" we all said.
"Yep" said the assassin "although we don't have any more use for you we can't just let you run off into Bandle city telling other about us, You see we used you as hostages because the scouts of mothership were chasing us down and we could not afford to get killed, so we kidnaped you so the the scouts of mothership wouldn't kill us".
"You people are dispicable" said Steven "holding hostages just to escape what you deserve".
"What we deserve" said the assassin "do you understand why we are waging war againts you?"
"Because you are selfish and wan't to take more land then you allready have".
"No actually we are trying to turn Yordle land into a better place by simpley trying to negotiate with you yordle's".
"No you assassin's assassinated the Yordle land king and the Bandle city mayor Darius jewlhim 50 years ago and ever since then we have declared war on you".
"We took him out because because he was a evil king, a mad king, a king that would have led Yordle land into destruction, he was playing you Yordle's right through your eyse. We kind assassin's graceiously took out your evil king for youand brought you peace. Thanks to us the assassin's we have saved your etire civilization from destruction. Intead of thanking us your city state immediatly declared war on us assassin's and attacked us and we had no choice but to defend ourselves. We even tried to sign a peace treaty with you Yordle's but you have declined. You Yordle's!" The assassin was now yelling "are absolutely disspicable, selfish, aboslutely careing for yourself and yourself only".
"THAT'S NOT TRUE!" yelled Steven "were the one's trying to make peace with you for example every year we send a messenger to your territory to try to make peace with you and every year you either tell them no and send them back, You will beat them and send them back, You will tear them appart and then have their remains delivered back to us and sometimes the messengers don't even come back, they dissapear, we know you killed them there is no denying that. You assassin's are the selfish and dispicable ones we were the one's trying to make peace with you and to tell you the truth you probably made up the half of what you said just to make your actions look just".
"HOW DARE YOU! How dare you say something as false as that. You Yordle's are more despicable then I thought. You Yordle's deserve what's coming you". The assassin paced around us glaring at us with his paralyzing face. "I just about had it with you Yordle's, boys get the fire let's burn these assholes".
"YOUR GOING TO BURN US!" I shouted.
"Oh yes we are" said the assassin. "Were going to put wood all around you, then were going to pour gasoline all over you, then were going to light you on fire and watch you Yordle's burn to a smoldering crisp and we are going to enjoy every single second of your screaming agony as you burn to death. When all of you scumbag Yordle's are dead we not bury you we will something much worse. How does Yordle sound tonight boys."
"Sounds delicious boss" said one of the assassin's as he grabbed some sticks nearby.
"You monsters!" yelled Steven but it was all in vain as the assassin's grabbed all of us and pushed us to the ground and tying us down so that we could not get up. After all of us were secured in such a way that we could not even get up the assassin's went out to look for sticks.
"Bandle city will make you pay for this" shouted Mary.
"Oh no they won't" said the head assassin. "By the time they figure out your dead we will be long gone. By the way one more thing before I kill an enemy I like to tell them my name". The head assassin came up to me for some reason and put his face right up to mine "My name is Klaus even said the assassin in a weird accent and I am the 5th captain of the jungle division assassin's".
All the sudden I had a feeling to say I do not know why but to this day I will remember it because it will serve me purpose later in my journey "if I get out of this alive" I said "I swear under my father Aaron Mosley that I Teemo mosses the new last name I chose, to kill you If I get out of this alive".
Klaus laughed wildly "I look forward to that day if you even get out of here alive".
"I swear I will".
"Good luck with that" said Klaus.
All the sudden assassin's started appearing holding lot's of sticks. They all came near us and dropped their sticks on us. The assassin's then brought a can of gasoline giving it to Klaus. Klaus then walked up to us and started dumping the foul smelling gasoline all over us drenching us in the stuff. Klaus then took out a match box form his pocket, took a match from the box and then stroke the match at the side of the match box and it instantly lit up. "Any last words before we burn you into Yordle bacon".
"Actually I would" came a voice behind Klaus.
"What?" asked Klaus.
Almost instantly a load shot was heard and the match in Klaus's hand disappeared. "Enemy fire" said one of the assassin's.
"Who fired that bullet? show yourselves" said Klaus.
"Gladly" came the voice again.
All the sudden 5 Yordle's appeared out of nowhere form the trees and they were wearing an outfit that I recognized.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"You don't know us and your a Yordle" said what looked like the leader of the group who was standing in the middle of the group.
"I'll give you a hint" said the Yordle "It starts with a m".
I gasped and said "Your the scouts of mothership!".
"Ding, ding" said the leader. "Yep I am captain Dilan Elian of the Bandle city squad 6 of the Bandle city special forces unit The scouts Of Mothership"
"Are you here to save us?" I asked.
"Of course silly" said Dilan "we saw you being used as hostages so the assassin's can get through the city safely, so we basically waited until you were safely outside the city to begin rescue".
"I wouldn't exactly call this safe" said Mary.
"Well your safe now and the only one's who are not safe are the assassin's. They are definitely not safe".
"Easy for you to say" said Klaus "You Yordle's are the one's who aren't safe because we did take precautions in case a rescue happened. You see we planted explosive mines underneath the ground of where we are standing right now and all of you are going to get blown to bits when we press this button".
"Won't you get blown to bit's too?" asked Dilan.
"That's where these jetpacks come in all assassin's carry escape jetpacks underneath their robes just in case they get into a sticky situation".
"Then how were we able to kill other assassin's?" asked Dilan.
"Because every assassin is willing to die for our cause but as for us, our team is too important to be killed so we have no choice but to use our jetpacks. Now if you don't have any more questions we will be off bye, bye". All the sudden all the assassin's took off their assassin robes revealing their jetpacks over their normal clothes they all then activated their jet packs.
"Oh no you guys are not getting away, squad open fire".
Instantly all the squad members obeyed and fired their machine guns at the assassin's flying up into the air. I saw one bullet hit a assassin and he moaned as he came crashing down. Another bullet hit a jet pack instantly blowing up and incinerating the assassin riding it, it also set nearby assassin's on fire. The scouts of Mothership continued firing at the assassin's killing off a few more before the rest escaped including Klaus.
"Dam it we didn't kill the leader" said Dilan.
"Were sorry captain" said one of the squad members putting his hand on Dilan's shoulder.
"FIRST OF ALL!" the squad members got very scared "you don't have to call me captain you can call me Klaus like I told you a million times, second of all It's ok I'm sure will get that bastard Klaus someday".
"Thank you captain I meant Klaus for your generosity".
"It looks like your pretty laid back for a captain" I said.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY!" said Dilan.
"AH! please don't hurt me".
"I'm just kidding lad. I do treat my squad non harshly but I do like all scouts of Mothership squad captains expect the best out of them and they do perform at their best level so there's no need for any yelling".
"You are right sir" said one of the squad mates.
"You can stop with the acting" said Dilan.
"Thank you Dilan" said all the squad mates as they relaxed and started to chat with each other.
"Your not kidding about the laid back part are you captain" said Steven.
"It's true, I treat them like my family and they treat me the same. Are squad is basically family. We hang out, eat and sleep together most of the time. Anyways let's untie you Yordle's and get you safely back to your homes".
So me and the rest of us were untied and they gave us food and water and took us home. When I got to my house they put two guards on my front yard to make sure this does not happen again and I wait. I listened to the radio and watched the news on TV and after about 2 days the invasion was over. The assassin's have retreated back into the plague jungles and the Yordle's are safe. A total 161 Yordle's are confirmed dead and at least another 300 missing. The government is Immediately taking action by sending about 40% of the Yordle land military forces to the assassin's base in the plague jungles to counter attack. The intention of the sudden attack is unknown according to the news, and besides that nothing else.
Eventually life in Bandle city returned to normal and the event a thing in the past. But there was one thing that troubled me, my father is gone. about a week after the incident they found my fathers remains and rightfully handed it over to me. I decided that I could not handle the pain of being at a funeral so I went to my backyard. My backyard was nice and big so there was plenty of room to make a nice grave. I bought concrete and wood and made a nice arch where I was going to bury my father. I bought a Yordle sized coffin and dug into the ground. I placed my father nice and neatly inside the coffin and closed it. I then put the coffin in the hole I buried and put dirt on top of the coffin and buried my father. I bought a Tomb stone and had it carved in R.I.P Aaron Mosley The great father Of Teemo Moses. I put the tomb stone over where my father was buried. I brought flowers and incents and made my fathers resting place look beautiful. When all this was done I went into my house and cried for many days.
I fell into a deep depression and closed down the shop for many weeks. Friends tried to visit and cheer me up, Steven and Mary showed trying to cheer me up. I eventually stopped eating and Steven had to eventually force me to eat in order to keep me alive. Some days the pain was so bad that I would refuse to get out of bed all day. Brian the military Yordle I met earlier showed up and helped out Steven and Mary help me. But one day I just could not take it anymore I knew what I had to do. Goodbye Bandle city.
