Chapter 7 Marvella P.O.V

I'm still stood by the edge watching Wade digging. I can feel myself heating up with tears in my eyes that I'm trying to hold back. I couldn't let him get away with that I feel like someone just wacked me in my back with a gun itself. I still had the helmet in my hand. I threw it into the hole and made a noise like I was throwing something heavy right by Wade I thought it was going to hit him but it didn't, everyone looked at me.

"Death is just around the corner for any of us and we can't walk away" I shouted then walked off I sat down and huddled by the side of a close by tree, I realised the others were still watching me. I hid my face into my knees and started to cry, I then looked up and seen Wade walking to me, he sat down and hugged me with the others still watching, by the corner of my eye I could see Wade looking at the others nodding his head sideward's. When we finally finished I watched Jackson take all of Horvath's ammo and he gave it to Miller. Jackson then stuck the gun up into the ground and put the helmet on top. We all then walked away not saying a word.


It's late morning; nobody mentioned anything I felt too scared to. My legs are throbbing I don't know why we are walking into another village but this village seems more modern then the one I've came from. We ran up these steal stairs that lead to the next floor.

"Let's stop here" Miller said out of breath

We stopped in the middle of the balcony I could see the whole village at this view. On one side of the balcony was the entrance down and the other side was a dead end. I seen blue and greenie boxes I felt myself flop onto the edge of them everyone was still silenced but I could hear little voices that seemed to get louder.

"Shh!" I said putting my finger against my lips. Everyone looked at me.

"We weren't saying anything" Reiben said sitting on the lower stacked boxes. I sighed.

The others were talking while I felt awkwardness between Reiben and me.

"Come" Reiben said walking towards the end of the balcony. I followed as we walked into an open door and it took us to a room. On one side there where stairs the way we came up. As I looked around on my left there was a window without any glass but I then realised there was a machine gun stuck onto the window-seal.

"That's one heck of a gun" I said moving my eyes onto Reiben.

"Just get it over and done with, Horvath would never have died if you just told us this fucking secret that I know you know about!" Reiben said trying to not get the others to notice.

"W..W..Wait... your blaming me?" I asked stepping forward with my hand on my chest. Reiben sighed.

"Just tell me" Reiben said starting to look a bit red.

"I don't know, Reiben!" I said walking off

"Uh where are you going?" Reiben asked walking back out the door.

"Somewhere out of your sight!" I said as he walked behind me. I then leant my back onto the stone wall, Reiben followed.

"Sorry it's just" Reiben said

"Don't worry when ever things like this happen we all turn on each other" I said in a feisty manner

"So tell me about yourself, your quite personal you" I asked a few minutes later.

"Well I'm from New York"

"As if" I joked Reiben tilted his head sideways.

"Reiben... I don't think anyone is going to miss it as it clearly says Brooklyn, New York on your jacket" Me and Reiben started to laugh a little.

"Umm well I have a very cool gun"

"Umm I can see that" I said looking in the other direction

"Okay, Okay I've came from a normal family with a boring life... until I met this amazing girl"

"Is that it" I raised one eyebrow

"She didn't like me; she thought I was too overprotective... But she then wanted me after she found out I was going into war" Reiben said rolling his eyes with a small smile. I chuckled

"Uh I think Wade is a little more overprotective then you" I said looking at Wade sat down, I then looked at Reiben.

"So what did you say to this amazing girl?"

"I said no" Reiben stated "I'll probably won't see her again so what's the point" Reiben added

"You're so negative"

"It's easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend" Reiben said.

"Marvella, Reiben, Mellish and me will go and look around the village, the rest stay here" Miller interrupted everyone

"What happens if someone gets hurt?" Wade asked worriedly

"What happens if there's a sniper in a building?" Jackson said

"W...what about if an enemy comes up here?" Upham hesitated

"Wade we'll call you, Jackson keep us covered and Upham shoot!" Miller said walking towards the stairs with me and the others.

"What does that mean?" I asked Reiben as we got down the stairs

"You'll find out soon or later" He said.
