Chapter Eight

~Our Lives End with a BANG!~

Okay, maybe I DIDN'T know who the traitor was. When I seemed to be jerked from the picture I gasped for breathe. I hadn't realized how hard it was to breathe in there. I shivered as Rachel wrapped a towel around me. I welcomed it with generosity. Not even this seemed to get me warm enough.

Hypothermia seemed to wrap around me like a veil of darkness. It felt like I had it, but yet I knew I didn't. My teeth chattered and Rachel looked at me with sympathy. "Are you okay?" she asked. I shakily nodded but she could read me well enough to know I really wasn't. "Will you be able to attend today's events?"

"Of course! I wouldn't miss Capture the Flag, or even a Chariot Race! Today me and Chance are going to be in the chariot...John is doing the defense. We're so sure we're going to win. Are you this sure, Rachel?" I asked, trying to stop my rambling but it seemed so hard to. I just smiled and went on.

"Beware the head of red. That's all I can say" said Rachel before disappearing. She had just left me deep into a cave I didn't even know! That- "You comin'?"

I jerked around, ready to punch and kick. Rachel fell to the ground laughing and I just stared at her with hate. "Not funny" I snapped. Then it hit me. "Head of red...Isn't that you?" I asked.

"No, I am not the Head of Red. She is much darker. More like my evil twin. I'm giving away to much already...Good luck with your prophecy and your journey!" called Rachel, walking out of the cave by a secret entrance (Exit?) that seemed to just appear. I simply followed. The light burned my eyes and when I saw the clock, I ran to the woods.

Chiron was standing before the Red and Blue teams giving his speach. All I heard was: 'Blah, blah, blah, killing, blah, blah, blah, blood'. Yeah, I zone out easily, okay? Then I heard the horn blow and the two sides either went to their flag or ran to the other teams. Me, well, I just sat there.

Appearntly, I was gaurding the area. I hate doing that. I like being a rebel. So, I waited till no one could see me, and charged to absolute no where. Mud splattered under my feet as I realized I had no clue where I was going. Then, a few unexcpected things happened. I tripped over a wire, and soon I was hanging upside down.

"Wow, Kenny. Your THAT stupid?" asked Hero's voice. She walked out from behind a bush and stuck her tounge out at me.

"I like tacos" I stated.

"Who doesn't like tacos?" she asked.

"Taco haters" I assumed. "Wait, why are we having a conversation like this when I'm hanging upside down?" I asked. She shrugged and I got my sword. I swung aimlessly at my feet. Thankfully, I hit the rope and I fell to the groud.

I jumped up and brushed the dirt and grass from my shirt and faced her. "You-me-this clearing?" I asked, pointing my sword at her. She shruged and did the same to me. As we both counted to three, we held out our hands. As if an old joke, my hand made the scissor motion and she made the paper. Embaressed, she changed it to rock.

"Ah, old jokes from childhood...Wait, how...?" I asked.

"I dunno!" she said a bit too fast. Then she prepared for an actually fight again. "Just a friendly fight?"

"Sure" I said. Wow, we're were having a friendly fight in the middle of Capture the Flag...just WOW!

Our swords clashed around my chest area and her forehead area. It made a weird CLANG! noise and she jumped back. "To scared to fight me?" I taunted, twirling my sword. She smirked and charged me again.

Surprisling, I kicked her blade but she held onto the grip. She smiled and swiped at my abdmen, which was some-what blocked. Just the tip of her blade got me. But no blood came out.

I kicked her in the chest and she stumbled back. She tripped on a root and fell into a lake that was behind a big area of tall, tall, TALL grass.

Then an explosion shot me back.

Possibly reducing Hero to guts and gore.

Don't you just love my cliff hangers?

My beta dropped off the side of the Earth again so excuse any mistakes...
