Chapter 7: A slight flashback
A/N: Alright due to the title of this chapter you probably know what's gonna happen, sssoooooo be prepared.
Anyways lets get on with it!
============================================================================
"Okay, just a little further and...Got ya." Ethan said as he grabbed the unconscious elf from the well water. "OKAY PULL ME UP PLEASE!"
Then the jeep that had the rope attached to it then moved slowly forward and pulled out Ethan and the elf girl. Soon Ethan was pulled from the well as was the elf and medics soon came to the elf girls aid.
"Is she alright?" Manfred asked and then was amazed at the elf's beauty. 'Wow she's pretty.'
Ethan then placed his fingers on the girls neck and felt a pulse.
"Yeah she is still alive but, she will need medical attention." Ethan replied. "We need to head back to Coda village maybe they can help her there."
"Good idea." Nichols added as he walked up to the 2. "But in her current condition we better hurry."
"Better not waste time then." Ethan said. "EVERYONE MOUNT UP! WERE MOVING OUT!"
The elf girl was put in the back of Ethan's jeep and a couple of US Army Medics went to aid her condition. Unfortunately they had to cut the cloths off the elf as they were wet and could make her catch a cold if they were left on her. Of course they then covered her with a blanket to keep her warm.
"Alright, that should keep her stable for now." One of the Medics said. "She'll need further aid later."
In the meantime Ethan slipped off his wet socks and boots and then threw on dry ones to avoid getting blisters.
"Well I hope she will stay stable until we can get her to a doctor." Ethan sighed. "I don't want anyone else to die here."
Time skip to the village...
The villagers in coda village were just going about there business just like any other normal day when all of a sudden the ground started to shake a little. Then the ground shook more and more and soon one of the villages spotted the source of where the shaking was coming from. The rest of the villagers looked and saw the strange military men and their machines coming in some what of a rush. Soon the convoy stopped in the middle of the village and soon the village elder came out and saw Ethan getting out of his jeep and approached him.
"(What are you doing back here man in green?)" The village elder asked. "(I thought you got what you asked for.)"
"(We came back here to warn you about a fire dragon.)" Ethan explained. "(It burned down the elf village that you described and only found 1 survivor.)"
"(Only, one survivor? That's terrible.)" The village elder said but then widen his eyes at realization of what Ethan said. "(WAIT, a flame dragon?!)"
"(Yes, I did mention a flame dragon.)" Ethan said. "(Do think by any chance you can help us with the elf girl?)"
"(I'm afraid not as we lack the resources to tend to her kind here.)" The village elder replied. "(Also if there is a flame dragon near by we need to evacuate now.)"
"(Now?)" Ethan questioned.
"(Yes, because once a flame dragon consumes human or elf flesh it will be hungry for more.)" The village elder explained. "(Could you possibly help us with evacuating from here?)"
Ethan was taken back at what the elder had asked him. He looked at the ground at first and then back to the rest of the recon team and then remembered a similar situation back during the second world war.
Flashback time!
Date: June 1st 1945, 12:30PM
Location: A civilian village somewhere on Okinawa
A younger form of Ethan is shown with a squad of other Marines were investigating the village for any Japanese soldiers. As of currently there were no signs of the enemy and the villagers were being evacuated and the Marines were keeping watch for enemy movement. Then all of a sudden there was a loud whistling noise from the sky above and then an explosion destroyed one of the house's that was in the village. The Okinawan villagers soon spread and hit the ground floor as well with the Marines. As Young Ethan took cover by a boulder he saw a Okinawan teenager in the middle of the road curled up to try and make himself a small target.
Ethan then Rushed over and tried to help the teen out of the street when an enemy artillery shell hit where the teen was and knocked Ethan back a ways. He then hit his head on the ground and his ears were ringing a little from the blast. He then looked back to where the teen was and saw nothing but a big black crater with no remains of the little boy.
Flashback end...
Ethan still was deep in his thought about what had happened in the past but, that was soon interrupted when the village elder spoke again.
"(Um...Are you okay sir?)" The elder asked. Soon Ethan then snapped out of his thoughts and turned his attention back to the elder.
"(Uh...yes, I'm fine.)" Ethan answered. "(Also, yes we will help you evacuate.)"
"(Oh thank you, it will be a big help!)" The elder thanked. Ethan nodded then turned his attention toward the rest of the recon team.
"ALRIGHT EVERYONE LISTEN UP!" Ethan yelled and soon he called the attention of the rest of the recon team. "SINCE THAT FLAME DRAGON IS NEARBY WE ARE GONNA HELP THE VILLAGERES HERE EVACTUATE, I DONT WANT TO HEAR ANY BACK TALK FROM ANY OF YOU UDERSTOOD?"
"SIR YES SIR!" The others replied in unison. Soon they all set to work helping the villagers pack up to leave.
Time skip to much later....
At a wooden house deep with in the forest a old mage and his student were currently packing their wagon with there belongings as someone had told them that they needed to evacuate. After gathering everything they needed they headed to the village where everyone was said to evacuate. Then when they arrived they came across many other villagers with their things packed into wagons all in a line.
"(Why is everyone just standing still?)" Lelei asked. "(Shouldn't we be moving?)" Then one of the villagers ran up to Lelei and her Master Cato.
"(Master Cato, Lelei one of the carts in the front was carrying too much and it axel broke and is blocking the way.)" The villager said. However before either of them could replied they then saw a man dress in green giving orders to everyone else around him.
"Manfred, get me a corpsman to help the people over at the crash cart!" The man yelled.
"Yes sir!" The man in tan replied.
"Nichols I need you with me to help clear the way!" The man in green said to another.
"Yes sir!" The other replied and soon followed him to wherever he was going.
"(I have never heard such language in my life!)" Master Cato said. "(Who are those men?)"
"(I want to have a closer look.)" Lelei said and jumped off the wagon to see what was going on upfront.
"(Lelei wait!)" Cato called out by Lelei didn't hear him. Lelei then walked up to the scene of a broken wagon and with a few of the men in green uniforms checking out the scene. One of them was tending the wounds of a young girl that was on the ground.
"Well I hate to say it but she has a head concussion and maybe a cracked rim or 2." The corpsman said. "I'll badge her up as best as I can but she will need further medical attention later on."
"Don't worry, she'll get when we head back to base." The leader said.
Lelei was still wondering who these people were and why they were helping out with the evacuation of everyone in the village. However she failed to noticed the downed horse next to her and when she did noticed it was too late.
"KID LOOK OUT!" The leader said and Lelei turned to see the horse about to hit her. 'RATARTARTRATRAT'! The loud shots from Ethan's Thompson made the horse go down on its side moaning in pain. Lelei fell down in shock at what she had just witnessed in front of her. She then saw the one who saved her from the horse walk up to the crying horse and then pulled out a strange looking metal tool from his side and it made a loud *Bang* and the horse died. "Hey you alright kid?"
'These people just saved me.' Lelei thought to herself as the man helped her back onto her feet.
