Chapter 2: A Trail of Blood
The morning sun shines through windows and trees and glares into Turners eyes. He lays in the grass on a hill while the sun glares onto his face. He slowly begins to open his eyes as the sun shines into them and then he rolls and turns his back to the sun. He plants his hand on the grass and lifts himself up. He stares at the tree in front of him for a good 10 seconds and then sprints at it and swings his leg into the trunk of the tree and leaves a huge crack through it. It's time to stop taking it out on objects and go find him, he thought. He looks to his left where he buried all the bodies and then walks back into town.
Bloodshed still covers the walls and ground. Turner goes to look at the weapons smith and sees that it is raided. He pulls out his knife and looks at it. This won't take them all out, he thinks. He hears a noise, his ears twitch into the direction of the sound. He turns and sees a raider with a sword. "I see your little graveyard out the front. don't worry, I already dug you a nice hole!" The raider says. The raider jumps down attempting to attack Turner but Turner quickly grabs the raiders arm, flips back and kicks him into the wall. The raider lays upside down against the wall and sees Turner slowly approaching him. Turner grabs the raider's ears and pulls him causing his legs to fall off the wall and slam into the ground, Turner then rises his foot and stomps on the raiders neck causing him to suffocate. "I've also got a spot for you" Turner says.
Turner is at the edge of a canyon with a stripped body and wearing a raider's outfit. He grabs the body and chucks it over the edge of the canyon and then hears steps behind him. "Oi! What are you doing out here?" A scruffy voice yells. Turner turns around and then is paralysed by the sight of dog soldiers. They would gut him alive, he thought. "Why are you still around Khan, You should helping the others dispose of Kong!" The dog yells. Turner is confused, All his life he heard the dogs were ruthless killers that destroy everything that breathe. "Survivors, sir. Just finishing off who ever twitched" Turner says attempting to play along. "Sir? I like you boy not many people give me that respect. Well anyway get on the road and head to Kong, and remember, I won't be so sweet next time" The dog says. "Sir, yes sir!" Turner says trying to appease the dog to distract him from the fact he is not a raider. The dogs walk off and Turner begins to head to Kong.
Turner is walking through the forest and hears a loud scream. He looks around a tree and sees a civilian trapped in a bear trap and what looks like his wife screaming. Turner hesitates to help and then sees two raiders jump from the trees with knives and begin to restrain the wife as another one slashes the husband. Turner stops looking and then he sees the village of Kong up ahead. It is surrounded by a wooden wall and has large guard towers. In the middle sits a large capitol and the village would be beautiful if it wasn't currently engulfed by fire and continues screams and sword clashes are heard from it. Turner decides to see who is in charge of this pillage.
Turner creeps along the wall and looks down to see two hooded raiders being chased by rabbit guards but then sees a large hooded figure jump in and simply kill the two guards with his fists. Turner is frightened and attempts to fallback but turns around and sees a raider with the handle of a spear faced towards his face. "Trips over boy!" the raider says. The raider then hits Turner in the face with the handle and Turner falls off the wall and smashes into a hay bale and breaks the wheelbarrow lifting it and spills the hay. Turner lays on his back and the raider jumps down now with the spiked end facing Turner."How did you survive that drop?" The raider questions. Turner begins to slowly pick himself up and then it hits the raider "YOUR TURNER!" he screams. The raider turns around and attempts to scream it to everyone but Turner quickly grabs his knife and stabs the raider in the back with it causing the raider to cough up blood and fall to his knees and then the ground.
Turner runs along the rooftops hearing all the carnage below and then sees the hooded brute on top of the capitol pedestal with prisoners and raiders around him. The raiders have their knives to the necks of the prisoners who lay on their knees looking at their precious homes burn. The brute unhoods himself to show he is a dog. "You rabbits stay in your homes and don't fight this war your soldiers die in, for this you deserve death. I have found rabbits that fight every day to survive like us dogs and therefore deserve your riches more than you ever did! For your disrespect to the order you die!" The dog exclaims and then the raiders slice the throats of the prisoners and they all fall to the ground, lifeless. "Now my children, claim your riches!" The dog yells and the raiders quickly scatter breaking windows, burning houses and looting bodies. Turner stands up and begins to try and get out of the village but as soon as he takes his first step he slips off the roof and slides down and smashes through a window and hits the ground, knocking him out cold.
Turner wakes up, his vision blurred, he hears laughing coming closer. He tries to pick himself up but his hand loses its balance and causing him to slam back into the ground. "Hey, look a flower shop!" A voice says.
"Why would you want flowers?"
"Not the flower idiot, The gold!"
"Oh...yeah"
Turner sees two black silhouettes walk into the room and automatically knows they're raiders. Turner realises his out in the open and begins to shuffle back with the little strength he has. One of the silhouettes opens a black object that looks like a register, but then Turner's knife falls out of its scabbard and smacks into the tiles causing a loud TING. A silhouette begins to walk over towards Turner and Turner begins to panic but then a loud yell is heard. "Sorry, what?" Asked the silhouette. "I said, get out because we're burning it down!" An outside voice yells. "Okay, you got the gold?" The silhouette asks the other. "Yep, let's go!" The silhouette answers. Then the two silhouettes walk out of the building but then through the windows comes a Molotov and it explodes just a meter in front of Turner. Turner begins to panic again so he goes to get up and go for the door but another Molotov is thrown through the door and explodes just in front of it. Turner backs up against a wall and closes his eyes and rubs them and then re-opens them twice and finally can see clearly. The room contains a shelf of flowers and to the left of it a bench with a cash register. Turner slowly creeps under the window and throws the shelf onto the fire and it puts out the fire on the door. "What was that?" Asks an outside voice.
"Probably just the fire"
"Couldn't be, we just threw it
Turner sees a pot on the floor from when he flew through the window and grabs it and then grabs his knife. One raider walks into the door and Turner quickly throws the pot in his head knocking him out and then another runs in and Turner stabs him in the chest with the knife and then takes it out and then jabs it again into his eyeball, killing him. Turner jumps back as a knife is thrown through the doorway and then Turner quickly vaults out the window and the raiders lose him as he runs down the street.
