Chapter 6 The Day before The Show Down
Burt call to fellow brothers who row their boats onto the shore greeting the villagers.
"The warriors are here!"
One of the guys working on the wood fence yells as rest the village walks over. Kurt walks out of the corn field confused and startled by all the boats of other natives rolling in. Burt takes the hand of the other Chief and helps him on to the land and puts his arm around him and walking away with him talking. Kurt walks over to Mercedes who looks at him with concern.
"Kurt! Are you crazy?" Mercedes says grabbing his wrist. "What are you doing with one of them?" Mercedes asks as they both look over in shock at Puck. Kurt looks scared and shocked to see him.
"There you are." Puck says wrapping his arm around Kurt's shoulder smiling softly at him.
"Mercedes. Look at them." Puck says looking at all the men carrying spears and walking towards the main hut. "Now we have enough warriors to destroy those white demons." Puck says as the Chiefs turn around facing their warriors.
"Now that we are joined by our brothers, we will defeat this enemy." Burt starts hitting his spear on the ground while their faces look angry before walking away. Kurt runs after his father leaving Puck and Mercedes alone Puck's hand is out seeing how he wanted to grab Kurt to stop him from running as Mercedes stands there confused and not knowing what to do. Mercedes and Puck exchange a worried an confused look.
"Father. I need to speak with you." Kurt says grabbing his shoulder.
"Not now my son." Burt says resting his hand on Kurt's shoulder gently.
"The council is gathering." Burt says walking two steps towards the door.
"We don't have to fight them." Kurt says putting arm out to the side giving his dad a pleading look. "There must be a better way."
Sometimes our paths are chosen for us."
"But maybe we should try talking to them."
"They do not want to talk." Burt says turning around looking into his sons blue eyes.
"But if one of them did want to talk?" Kurt says grabbing his fathers arm. "You would listen to him, wouldn't you?" Kurt asks again looking at his father a little scared with the answer.
"Kurt." Burt says looking at him.
"Wouldn't you?" Kurt says giving him a pleading look.
"Of course I would. But it is not that simple." Burt says looking at Kurt with a serious look. "Nothing is simple anymore." Burt says running his hand down Kurt's cheek before walking away. Kurt stands there a little shocked with his arms somewhat out slowly lowering it to his side.
Blaine could wait to go see Kurt later so he planned on leaving earlier so it wasn't so late hoping maybe he can find Kurt without being found himself. Finn walks along not close to Blaine but still follows him when he sees a frightened Sebastian under tree roots. Bas sees him and starts barking chasing after him through the log getting stuck in it walking around in it carrying him and Finn in the log. Finn gets out following and jumps onto Finn shoulder waving at Bas still trapped in the log.
"Anderson there you are." Nick says as Blaine walks into camp where the guys are building a wooden fence.
"We were looking all over for you." Nick says looking back because they hear a yell in the distance.
"Anderson! Where have you been?" Karofsky says walking towards him with his chest puffed out.
"I-I-I was out scouting the terrain sir." Blaine says finally finding an answer.
"Excellent then you must know the Indians' whereabouts." Karofsky says with a pleasant smile on his face. "Well need that information for battle." Karofsky finishes smirking at Blaine.
"What?" Blaine says taken back a step.
"The battle. We will eliminate these savages once and for all." Karofsky says closing his eyes with a faint smile.
"No you can't do that." Blaine says pointing a finger in his face.
"Oh can't i?" Karofsky says with a furious look upon his face.
"Look, we don't have to fight them." Blaine says with a little smile.
"Blaine what's gotten into you?" Jeff asks looking at him curiously.
"I meet one of them." Blaine says as Wes walks over setting a hand on his shoulder.
"You what?" Wes says shocked.
"A savage?" Jeff says as surprised.
"They're not savages. They can help us. They know the land. They know how to navigate the rivers." Blaine says smiling softly at his crew.
"And look!" Blaine says grabbing the corn out of Finn hand pulling back the green leafs.
"What is it?" Nick ask putting his finger on it.
"It's food. It's better than hardtack and gruel." Blaine says looking at his mates.
"I like gruel." Jacob says popping his head over Karofsky shoulder smiling pleasantly.
"They don't want to feed us, you ninnies." Karofsky says grabbing the corn out of Blaine's hand.
"They want to kill us! all of us!" Karofsky says spreading out his arms. "They've got our gold." Karofsky says grabbing on to an older mans shirt. "And they'll do anything the want with it."
"But there is no gold." Blaine says looking at Karofsky with anger and hate.
"No gold?" Wes says looking over at Nick.
"And I suppose your little Indian friend told you this?" Karofsky says looking at Blaine angrily.
"Yes!" Blaine says confidently and boldly.
"Lies, lies! All of it!" Karofsky shouts at Blaine flustering with anger all over him. "There is no room for them here those uncivilized beast!"
"But this is their land!" Blaine yells in protest.
"I make the laws here. And I say anyone who so much as looks at an Indian without killing him on site will be tried with treason and hanged." Karofsky shouts in Blaine face.
"Kurt! Kurt!" Mercedes yells at a running away Kurt.
"Mercedes!" Kurt says whirling around looking at her.
"Don't go out there. I lied for you once don't make me do it again." Mercedes says looking at him bravely.
"I have to do this." Kurt says looking back at her sun lit eyes.
"He's one of them!" Mercedes says grabbing Kurt's arm before he can walk away.
"You don't know him." Kurt says looking at her.
"Kurt if you go, you'll be turning your back on your own people." Mercedes says walking in front of Kurt.
"I'm trying to help my people." Kurt says in defense.
"Kurt please. Your my best friend. I don't want you to get hurt." Mercedes says grabbing Kurt's hand.
"I won't. I know what I'm doing." Kurt says taking a step towards her.
"Kurt, No." Mercedes says trying to protest as Kurt runs away in the sun.
The guys argue by the fired as Blaine secretly tries to run away but Jeff catches him. Jeff walks to the opening where Blaine runs away.
"Get back to base Jeff. I'll deal with this on my own don't say anything." Karofsky says walking away with out letting Jeff say a word.
"The earth is trembling child, what is happening?" Mother Emma asks as Kurt runs over the log to her.
"The warriors their here." Kurt says looking at Emma upsetting.
"Kurt!" Blaine says walking over to him.
"Blaine!" Kurt says whirling around and seeing him.
"Listen to me my men are planning on attacking your people. You've got to warn them maybe it's not to late to end this." Blaine says grabbing Kurt's hand and upper arm.
"You must come with me and talk to my father." Kurt says looking at Blaine scared and trying to pull him away.
"Kurt talking isn't doing any good." Blaine says grabbing Kurt other hand pulling him back. "I already tried talking to my men." Blaine says "But everything about this land has them spooked." Blaine continues as Emma watches with sadness. Bas howls walking over standing upright in a log.
"That is the strangest creature I have every seen." Emma says looking at it with everyone attention on the dog in the tree. Karofsky grabs Kurt covering his mouth so he can't say anything and dragging him away. Sebastian rolls down the hill as the trunk hits a tree it he flies out and is caught by Blaine. Bas looks up and sees and upside down Finn or so he thinks Finn is upside down.
"Kurt?" Blaine says whirling around and seeing nothing. The animals stop chasing each other and look around now too. "Kurt?" "Kurt?" Blaine and Emma start yelling looking around for him.
"Blaine Anderson you must find him check your camp and remember." Emma start lowering her leafs into the water around her and it turns a beautiful shade of purple.
"The ripples so small at first but look at them grow someone has to start them. Young man sometimes the right path isn't always the easiest path." Emma says as Blaine takes off towards the camp leaving Finn and Bas with Grandmother Emma.
"Where is the gold savage!" Karofsky yells at Kurt who's tied to a tree as the other crowd around them watching.
"What gold?!" Kurt yells as tears fall from his eyes.
"Kurt!" Blaine yells to himself running through the crowd.
"Well fine don't tell us savage it'll make your death at sunrise even more perfect when your begging for your life." Karofsky yells as he looks to two guys. "You two watch the savage over night as for the rest of you get to your tents." Karofsky yells walking away with Jacob on his tail.
"Kurt." Blaine says kneeling down next him.
"Blaine." Kurt says looking up into his passionate eyes.
"I'm gonna get you home to your father tonight in an hour okay?" Blaine whispers wiping the tears away.
"Okay." Kurt says giving him a weak smile.
"Where is my son Mercedes!?" Burt asks as him and Puck stand before her.
"I don't know." Mercedes says "I haven't seen him in awhile." Mercedes adds hoping her lie works.
"We know you were last with him where did he go?" Burt says looking at Mercedes with angry.
"Please Mercedes tell us we can help him." Puck says look to her for an answer.
"Okay fine. I'm only telling you because I'm worried about him he want into the forest to see a white man." Mercedes says finally giving in.
"Puck go get him and bring him home." Burt yells as Puck runs for the woods.
"Thank you Mercedes for being honest." Burt says walking away leaving a sad Mercedes alone.
Blaine cut the wire to the ropes which were holding Kurt down. Karofsky's wonderful guards fell asleep on duty like always.
"Thank you." Kurt says hugging Blaine.
"Don't thank me yet we still have to get out of here." Blaine says as him and Kurt run away into the forest holding hand. Again Jeff caught them and this time hesitantly went after them with a gun in his hand not knowing if he could do it. Kurt and Blaine reach Emma in no time where she was still with the animals.
"Now we must go talk to your father." Blaine says as Kurt throws his arms around his neck holding him close.
Blaine wraps his arms around Kurt's waist hugging him tightly back. Emma smiles covering the animals site with her leafs as Finn grabs an enraged Santana who wants to charge and attack Blaine but Finn grabs him smiling again. Blaine pulls away just a little so they're looking each other before slowly moving his head towards Kurt's as Kurt moves his head in and they share a deep passionate love and lustful kiss neither wanted to the stop. Jeff takes his gun pushing back the leafs and watches them kiss and shock over comes him as does Puck. Puck gasps in anger making an Indian call before running out of the bush at Blaine. Kurt looks over shocked as he watches Puck take Blaine to the ground.
"Puck! No." Kurt yells running over to them. Puck pulls out a small hatchet trying to attack him but misses and Blaine throws him off him standing up only to be greeted by Puck with a knife in his hand now. Kurt walks around them yelling "Puck." As Jeff jogs over loading his gun. Blaine and Puck roll around on the ground till Puck lands with Blaine underneath him knife still in hand.
"Puck!" Kurt yells running over to him trying to pulling off. "Let him go." Kurt says as Puck throws him backwards on to the ground. Blaine's losing and Puck has the knife slowly inching towards his chest. Kurt runs over. "Puck stop." Kurt says as him and Blaine almost force Blaine feel.
"Boom!" It echoes through Kurt mind as he watches Puck grab his necklace falling backwards breaking it. Kurt reaches his hand out trying to catch Puck put fails and Puck falls into the water as it splashes everywhere. Kurt drops to his knees besides Puck crying holding him. Blaine runs over to Jeff.
"You killed him." Kurt says softly sounding like he's about to bust out into tears at any moment again.
"I though that-" Jeff starts as Kurt just about lunges at him only to be caught by Blaine's strong arms.
"Get away from him." Kurt says harshly at him.
"He was only-" Blaine starts but gets cut off.
"He killed him." Kurt says still trying to run at Jeff but can't because Blaine is still holding him back. They hear other natives shouting and running towards them.
"Jeff. Get out of here." Blaine yells at him. "Get out of here." Blaine says once again as Jeff runs off as the natives yelling gets louder.
Four man grab onto Blaine as Kurt stands there sad and upset and confused he wanted to help Blaine but couldn't he wanted to hate Blaine but could so he stood their hesitantly walking back and forth but staying in the same place. Blaine looked at Kurt with his big dreams eyes full of fear. Kurt kneels down next Puck setting his head on Kurt's lap. As three men gently pick him up and carry him away. Kurt sits in the water still confused. Finn and Santana start to leave the shivering Bas but could bring themselves to do it and comfort him bringing him along with them.
A man carries Puck through the crowd of people to the village Elder Will and chief Burt. Burt stares in sadness before angrily saying "who did this?"
"Kurt was out in the woods. Puck went to find him and we found this white man." Mike says carrying Blaine by his arms over. Mercedes walks over pushing through the men looking at what was happening in shock.
"Your weapons are strong. But now our anger is stronger." Burt says holding the spear up to Blaine neck ready to stab at any moment. "At sunrise he will be the first to die." Burt says proudly looking up with anger.
"But father." Kurt yells walking up to them.
"I told you to stay in the village." Burt says to his son. "You disobeyed me. You have shamed your father." Burt says angrily at Kurt raising his voice.
"I was only trying to help." Kurt says sounding like he was about to cry with a crackly voice.
"Because of your foolishness, Puck is dead." Burt says raged at Kurt. "Take him away."
Burt says harshly to the men who carried Blaine in they carry him away and everyone walks away leaving Kurt alone. He slowly falls to the ground sitting on his knees. Mercedes slowly approaches him handing her hands at thigh lengths.
"Puck was just coming to protect me." Kurt says looking down at the ground as tears filled his eyes.
"Kurt... I told Burt and Puck where you were." Mercedes starts as Kurt looks up at her hurt but mostly sad. "T-they asked me where you were and I said I don't know but I had to to tell them I was worried about you." Mercedes says sadly and really regretting it dropping on to her knees infront of Kurt giving him a please forgive me look.
"All this happened because of me. And now I'll never see Blaine Anderson again." Kurt says looking into Mercedes eyes sad and alone. Mercedes leans over grabbing Kurt's hand and pulling her up.
"Kurt come with me." Mercedes says pulling Kurt away holding his hand.
Mercedes lead him to one of the tents were two guys are keeping guard "Kurt wants to look into the eyes of the man that killed Puck." Mercedes says as the guys guarding him look to the side.
"Go head." They say pretending they didn't see anything.
The guard pulls the cloth back and Kurt walks inside what he sees breaks his heart. In the middle of the tent with the moonlight shinning on him Blaine Anderson is on his knees and his hands tied behind his back and his head down.
Kurt walks over to him kneels down and places his hand on Blaine's cheek and he looks up "Kurt."
Kurt caresses his cheek before falling into his chest "I'm so sorry." he says and hugs Blaine tightly.
"For what, this I've gotten out of worse scrapes than this." he had to think for a minute "Can't think of any right now, but-.
Kurt then pulls away "It would've been better if we'd never meet; none of this would've happened." he says and turns his head.
"Kurt, look at me." Kurt looks and Blaine and tears start to form in his eyes "I'd rather die tomorrow than live a thousand years without knowing you."
Blaine:
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing?
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Blaine & Kurt:
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather,
And stars may collide
Kurt:
But I love you
Blaine:
(I love you)
Kurt:
Until the end of time
Blaine:
(until the end of time)
Blaine & Kurt:
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
I will love you
As their song came to a beautiful ending Kurt lips collided with Blaine's in a loving and very passionate kiss.
"Kurt." said Mercedes from the tents opening.
Kurt pulled away "I can't leave you." he said running his fingers through Blaine's curls.
"You never will. No matter what happens to me, I'll always be with you. Forever."
Kurt then stood up and ran his hand under Blaine's chin ''I'll never say goodbye to you.'' he said before letting go and walking out of the tent.
Jeff went running back to camp ''Help! Somebody help! Help! Help!'' he screamed as he came up to the gates.
''Easy, lad! What is it.'' said Nick from the outpost.
Jeff then entered the gates ''It's Blaine! They got him!'' All the light's in the tents turned on.
''Who got him.'' said Wes.
''The Natives!''
''Natives?''
''They captured him! Dragged him off!''
''Where'd they tale him?'' asked Wes.
''They headed north!'' he said pointing in the northern direction.
Jacob popped his head out of his tent in his pj's holding a little candle. He silently went over to Karofsky's tent. He then felt a pull as he was pulled in the tent. A hand clasped over his mouth and then candle blew out.
''It's perfect, Jacob. I couldn't have planned.'' Karofsky whispered and pulled the tents opening a little ''The gold is as good as mine.''
''We've got to save him! He'd do the same for any of us!'' said Jeff.
''Jeff is right! We've got to do something!'' shouted Wes.
Karofsky then cam up behind them ''And so we shall! I told you those savages couldn't be trusted. Anderson tried to befriend them; look what they've done to him. But now I say it's time to rescue our courageous comrade. At daybreak... we attack!''
The men cheered.
Karofsky:
What can you expect
From filthy little heathens?
Their whole disgusting race is like a curse
Their skin's a hellish red
They're only good when dead
They're vermin, as I said
And worse
Men:
They're savages! Savages!
Barely even human
Karofsky sang as he got ready for battle throwing the guns out for the men to use.
Men:
Savages! Savages!
Karofsky:
Drive them from our shore!
They're not like you and me
Which means they must be evil
We must sound the drums of war!
Men:
They're savages! Savages!
Dirty redskin devils!
Now we sound the drums of war!
Over at the village the Natives were also getting ready for the battle to start as they sang.
Burt:
This is what we feared
The paleface is a demon
The only thing they feel at all is greed
Will:
Beneath that milky hide
There's emptiness inside
Rick & Mike:
I wonder if they even bleed
Warriors:
They're savages! Savages!
Barely even human
Savages! Savages!
Burt:
Killers at the core
Will:
They're different from us
Which means they can't be trusted
Burt:
We must sound the drums of war
Warriors:
They're savages! Savages!
First we deal with this one
Then we sound the drums of war
Men
Savages! Savages!
''Let's go get few, men!'' yelled Wes.
Warriors:
Savages! Savages!
Karofsky:
Now it's up to you, men
Warriors:
Savages!
Men:
Savages!
All:
Barely even human
Now we sound the drums of war!
Clouds from their camp fires rose into the air and colliding with each other cause thunder and lightning.
