Chapter 2 Marvella P.O.V

I was shocked, more than shocked.

"Yes" the one with the big red Cross on his helmet said calmly.

I turned my head to look at him still confused and shocked, I can feel my heart pumping really fast that I can hear it.

"Come on let's get out of this house" the man hesitated he looked very shy he was the one that was speaking French before.

The two soldiers stood me up "W-what's your names?" I asked. I could hardly feel my feet. The one with the little white thing on his helmet started to speak letting go off me.

"I'm Miller our Medic is Wade, Upham our translator, Mellish, Jackson our Sniper, Reiben and Horvath" Miller said going around the whole group patting them on the shoulder one by one.

"And what's your name?" Wade asked leaning towards me, he still had hold of me. It's weird I actually feel really safe around these soldiers but I don't know if to trust them or not.

"Your worse than Jackson" Mellish joked.

"Oi" Jackson punched Mellish in the arm then they both started laughing.

What do they mean I'm worse than Jackson what's wrong with him, that makes me really self-conscious.

"I'm Marvella...I'm 14"

I felt myself burn up I'm so shy with strangers, I hate it when everyone looks at me. I looked at Mellish his face dropped.

"That's a nice name" The translator said, I've forgot his name already.

"Common Jackson, Reiben lets check out the church for Germens, we can all sleep there tonight" Mellish said quickly pushing the two soldiers out of the room.

"What you doing Mell-" "Go!" Mellish overlapped what Reiben was about to say. Horvath looked at Miller and shrugged then followed walking out of the door, reloading his gun.

I looked back at Wade I like Wade he seems nice.

"Did I do something wrong?"

"No, no, Mellish is just moody that's all" Wade chuckled looking at the door they just walked out of.

We walked out of the house very slowly, we are now standing outside, Wade has still got hold of my arm while Miller and Upham were walking around us with their guns at the ready for any contact. Why do they want me I don't understand, they seem nice enough but should I really be going with these guys, my mother always said never go anywhere with strangers but I have got a good feeling about this one.

Horvath ran to us and shouted clear leaning over with his hands on his knees looking like he was about to be sick but he was only out of breath.

Okay, Okay let's go!" Miller ordered. The 5 of us ran to the church meeting the others inside.

I'm cold, I'm hungry and it is a beautiful late night. We're all sat in our own personal space. Upham is sat on a step with Wade on the one above, Miller's by the open door he is looking outside, with the rest of the soldiers on the other side of the church facing my way. It's very awkward no one is speaking, I want to say something but I feel like it's not the right time, but when the time when this stupid war is going on is. Right I'm now going to say something!

"I hate this war! I don't care who is fighting in it, it should of never of happened!"

Everyone looked at me even Miller turned his head to me but then looked back outside, I then realised the others looked away except Wade he gave me a little smile then he dipped his hand into his bag to look for something. Oh my lord I should never of said that. Why the hell did I just say that!

"So Marvella what languages can you speak?" Upham asked, he seemed very interested.

"Umm, French, German and English"

"Yeah same, it comes in handy"

"Yeah I've used those languages so much" I said with a little smile. By the Corner of my eye I seen Jackson role his eyes he is so jealous.

"I don't see the point of speaking all those languages their useless" Jackson moaned.

"Oh shut it Jackson" Wade said turning his head back round to me.

"Don't you get confused like you might start talking French to a Germen soldier?" Wade asked sorting out his medical kit making sure everything is in its place ready for when he needs it next.

"No one cares" Jackson yawned patting his hand onto his open mouth, he then laid down cuddling his gun like a teddy bear.

One by one everyone started to fall asleep but Mellish was still wide awake sitting crossed legged looking at a picture; I couldn't quite make it out.

"Ouch!" I stood up moving my hand in big circles; I was walking to the end of the church and back still moving my hand.
