Wow. I'm loving all this reviewing you people have been doing.
Yes, I am a My Little Pony fan. (Pegasister)
If you want me to add your character it would be really useful to know its gender.
If you recall, when Commander was talking to the group about being safe and whatever he mentioned that if you doing anything wrong he sharpens a stick on both ends. This term originates from the book "Lord of the Flies " by William Golding (I think). It basically is saying that Commander will hunt them down with a sharpened stick and cut their head off. Then the head will be placed on the stick and with the other end will be stuck in the ground. Kory broke the rules by making a smart remark because well… Kory's an idiot. Good enough explanation?
If anyone would like to count the number of characters for me and let me know how many there are I promise to love you forever. Not really but you get the point.
Last chance to save you characters.
If things turned out like I didn't plan, key word: didn't. Then we would be far away from this stupid tribe in less than three hours before they could realize that we were gone. But chances of that working out were… well they were actually pretty good.
"You all set?" Nick asks me, hauling a bag on his back. How we had not lost all of our equipment yet I do not know.
"Sure," Finishing sharpening my axe and tying it onto my back. Then reloading my pistol and putting it in the holster.
"I'm readier than a baboon in a fire nest." Jay grins.
"Mmmhm. That's nice." I say.
"Let's kill some zombies." Bavaria grabs a shotgun.
It was three in the morning. The villagers were still asleep for the most part, but there were some we'd have to sneak past without suspicion. There were five different guards we could go to, and there were like ten of us… so we had to go in pairs.
"Alright people!" Texas shouted (quietly of course to keep the neighbors asleep). "We're using the buddy system here, so grab a partner and head out!"
Russia grabs her whip and pulls Bipolar out of whatever confusion she was in and they set out. The next pair was Fairbanks and Texas then Bavaria and Nick. I look to Reaver but he shakes his head and takes his little sister's hand and pulls her out of the shelter. I look unenthusiastically at Jay and sigh. "Move it, buttmunch." I push him out of the room.
"Yes ma'am." He says sarcastically. We walk to the guard waiting at the opening of the fence which surrounded the village. Oh lucky us, we got Commander.
"Hello, sir." I say, saluting you. Jay stifled a laugh.
"What do you want?" He huffs.
"We're going for a stroll." I cough.
"At three in the morning?" Commander raises an eyebrow.
"It's no fun when it's light out." Jay says. Commander glares at us. "Come on, we both know, that you know, that I know, that she knows," He jabs a finger at me," That I know, that you know what I'm talking about."
The commander rolls his eyes, "Go."
Jay and I nod and walk into the jungle.
"What did you mean?" I ask awhile later as we were looking for the others.
"Hm… Y'know, I don't know." Jay shrugs. Somewhere in the trees you can hear a bird that just doesn't sounds quite right.
"Do you hear that?" I ask.
"Yeah, ain't ever heard no bird like that."
"Hm…. Oh, I get it." I roll my eyes. "Nick! You don't need to pretend you're a bird, we're far enough away.
"If you say so." Him and Bavaria come out from the trees.
"Anyone else with you?" Jay asks them.
"Nope, you're the first we've found." Nick says.
"Oh, I hope the rest are okay." Bavaria winces.
"They'll be fine." I say. Just then we hear gunshots and yelling. "God damn it. Run!"
We rush ourselves deeper into the trees. There were footsteps and I turned around to see if they were following us. When I looked back I was inches from another person.
"Oof!" I fell backwards. I look up, dazed.
"Let's go," Reaver helps me back up and we take off again. Him and I had lost the other but you could hear footsteps and heavy panting everywhere.
"Ouch!" Someone yelled, then there was a thud.
"Do you see that?" Reaver breaths.
"See what?" I pant.
"Never mind, follow me." He swerves suddenly and I chase him out right out of the jungle and into a clearing. A metal fence stopped us from going any further. I seized the fence and climbed it like a squirrel. It was at least ten feet tall but didn't take long for me to pass. Reaver jumped down behind me. "Come on!" We run into a shack and lock the door.
"Are we safe?" I ask, not really thinking.
"We are… but not sure about the others." Reaver sighs.
"Oh my god," my brain begins to function again. "the others!" I get up. Then look at Reaver who was deep in thought. "Where's Charlotte?"
"I lost her back there when we heard the gun shots. We had already found Russia and Bipolar and she followed them while I went in the other direction.
"Russia and Bipolar? She should be alright. I trust them…" I start to open the door. "Coming?"
"I think I'll stay here." He sighs.
"Alright." I look out.
"Careful out there." Reaver says. I nod and close the door behind me.
There were pools of blood. But I didn't recognize any of the bodies. Was it possible that we all made it? I hear a scream, a familiar voice. It was Texas.
"Texas!" I say relieved. But then I see the people behind her.
"Go!" She shouts at me. I shake my head and raise the only gun I had left.
"What are you doing? You can't make it from back-"
I pull the trigger, one of the guards fall behind her.
"There…"
"Reaver's in that shack over there. Go, I'll hold them off." I command. I pull out my axe. It seemed brutal to kill living people with this but… a girl's got to do what a girl's got to do.
"Let's go!" I yell.
"Thank god you're all safe." Fairbanks says quietly.
"Yeah, so my plan worked after all." I say sitting on a crate full of hamburger buns. A box of buns for meh buns.:3
"Sure did." Jay nods.
"Hey, where are we anyways?" Russia asks.
"I saw a pool outside." Charlotte says.
"I saw a tall building, I think." Says Bipolar.
"I think I may know where we are." Russia says.
Sorry, a pretty boring chapter… Oh well.(: New characters soon.
