Day 8:David and Jonathan
...I don't feel so good today... I feel like I have to take a lot of medicines today... Ugh...
What happened last night? If I can recall... Random dudes break in our house...
O,of course! Random dudes have break in our house! And I never know what happened after i fell asleep!
I opened my eyes and saw Joy and Gizmo,lying on the floor. What happened?!
And where is mom and dad?
"Joy! Gizmo! W,wake up!"I shake both of them,making Gizmo jump awake.
"Ugh... Ah!! The bad guys! Where did they go?!"Gizmo look around and saw none...
But the surroundings are a complete mess!!!
I kept on shaking Joy until she wake up, but she seems so... Affected by that sleeping whatever that is...
"I think I'll leave Joy like this.. Ugh.. I feel so dizzy..."I hold my head and look around for something that was stolen...
Everything seems messy... But... There aren't anything...
Oh...NO!!!!
"Gizmo!!"I shouted,and look at Gizmo... Noticing that he was arranging the messed up things
Gizmo look at me as he finished fixing the cabinets and books:"What is it?"
"D,Dad's Jetpack invention...ITS STOLEN!!!!"I shouted,making me much more dizzy... "Ouch.."
"Well that's a problem for you to solve..."Gizmo said as he sat down at my bed.
"No way!..."I sat beside Joy and control my dizziness. What is in that spray?!?!
"Gizmo, where is mom and dad? I thought they'll be home by now.."I asked while looking at Joy's face,she ain't showing signs she is awake...
"They're stranded back at Chicago though..."Gizmo said
oh yes... The bad weather in Chicago though... Good... Still have time to catch the bad guys...
"Gizmo.. What happened last night..."I suddenly asked, I never really planned to ask that.. I never want to know what happened to them... I'll just be so much more anxious.
"Oh last night? The time you fell asleep, Joy entered this room,and shouted at the two guys, but yeah, they escape with that Jetpack... And then with too much of that thing... She fell asleep......"Gizmo explained.
I tried to Keep on gently tapping Joy's cheeks until she woke up... But I guess it's no use...
"WAHHH.!!! Wake up!!!!"I shouted while shaking her.
Her eyes flicker open, making my eyes widened.. And stop shaking her..
"Ugh.. That kinda hurts.. What was that..."she hold her head and stood up..
She then glared at me, making me step away and smile..."I,I'm just making sure you're still.. A,alive?"
"Of course i am!"then she began to cough.."It's just that I feel like I just swallow and inhale a thousand dust of poison..."
"That must be the sleeping thing... That makes us fall asleep..."I explained while scratching my head..
"It seems so different. I can taste candy for some reasons... Nevermind.. Ugh.. My head hurts!"Joy said as he sat down
"We have to find that Jetpack! Dad is gonna kill me..."I panicked while looking at the window, the Weather must have travelled round now..I then growled and kicked the table lightly,"those two are gonna pay!!!"
"Chris... Those two.. Are actually... Keith... And... Jake..."Joy said as she sat down the chair beside her.
"What? They can't do that.. They're my friends... They can't..."I look down and sighed,"if... If they.. Really did that.. I will never forgive them! They just set a trap for me! They... They are fake!"
"Chris..."Joy walk next to me and then suddenly,Superbook arrived...
Taking us to a place where a tent was placed before us,"where on earth are we Superbook?"
"It's throwback Thursday! Anyway, hope you learn something at this time though. Have fun!"Superbook said, his tone was like we are gonna have a camping...
"Fine.. We'll have fun..."I replied sarcastically
Then as we walk pass the tent,we saw a familiar looking guy...
"Father... Now I understand what you've seen in him.."says a young boy to a man of high rank.
"Wow... What an authority... He has some looks down there eh?"Joy said while pointing at the young boy.
"Pshh yeah,I'm far more handsome than him!"I boast while smiling around.
Then the Young boy walk closer to a familiar boy..."David! What you did out there was amazing... I want you to have this: my robe and armor... As a sign of friendship between us!"
David..of course! David! The boy who defeated the giant Goliath!
"Prince Jonathan..thank you!!"David smiled.
Then suddenly,both of them look at us.
"Now.. Look who's eavesdropping at our conversation"The boy named Jonathan smiled.
"O,oh! We're not eavesdropping or anything..."Joy explained while looking at me. Wow.. I'm still dizzy...
"Don't worry about Them Jonathan.. Anyway.. Uhmm.. You guys seems so familiar.. Have I met you before?"David said as he scratch his head and look away,"what was your name again?"
"I'm Chris?"I started
"I'm Joy..ouch.."yeah.. I feel you bro.. It hurts..
"I'm Gizmo!!"Gizmo smiled in happiness. Why does he smile like this...
"Oh....OH!! It's you guys! The guys who I met a couple of hours ago.. Why do your face looks so... Different?"David asked as he examine our looks.
Of course... Who wouldn't notice the change in our looks! It has been 6 months since we get to travel back at his time!
"Oh.. We just fell asleep.."Joy cleared her throat and roll her eyes.
"If that's the case... I never knew that you three are still here! Oh! Jonathan,these are my three friends I met earlier."David introduced us to his friend... A Prince...
I feel so overwhelmed... He is much cooler than me...
Jonathan gave us a warm smile and said:"hello! And am I please to be your friends. I'm happy you are friends with David."
We just remained silent and nodded.
This is pretty fun though...
"Ehem.."We then turned to see King Saul smiling at us.
"O,oh..haha!"We all chuckled and walk to King Saul
King Saul then walk in front of David,"David,now that you have shown great courage.. I want you to join the battle with my son,Jonathan... And some military expeditions with him as well."
David shows a really great smile,"if it's for the Lord..then I will!"
After a while,the five of us headed outside to eat dinner with...Jonathan!
I sat closer to Joy and whispered,"where's the lesson then?"
"Wait for it Chris! Don't be impatient!"Joy replied.
I pout and then look at King Saul sat beside David,"May I join you?"
David nodded and move near to Gizmo. Since Jonathan sat beside me,and Joy on my right.. And Gizmo beside Joy..
"David.. Can you,again.. Play that Harp for me?"Saul said.
A harp.. Of course! Haha..
"Of course!"David took out his Harp and played a really nice piece.
"Just to tell you David,"Jonathan started,"the Expedition will start tomorrow! Be sure to be ready!"
David smirked and laugh,"of course i will!"
After a couple of hours... They all fell asleep... Except for me and Joy... After all,we inhaled a lot of this spray.. Guess I can't fall asleep if I want to... Grrr.. Like an insomniac person...
"Its freezing cold tonight..."Joy said as she wear her hoodie.
"Well,you're lucky you got that jacket of yours... I don't have mine though.. Brrrrr!!"I wrapped my arms around myself and walk next to Joy.
"Do you think something will happen between Jonathan and David? Or maybe David and King Saul? Like.. Ruin their friendship?"Joy asked.
"Maybe.. It's a chance... After all... I have friends who defied me,betrayed me...left me.."I explained
Joy rolled her eyes and smirked,"remove the Defy you thing.."
"Fine... Hmm.. To be honest that spray taste like candy.."I said while trying to taste that sleeping spray.
Joy thought for a second,"yeah.. But it makes me feel dizzy every time I taste that.."
"I know right... At least it isn't poison that can kill you..."I sat down by the camp fire.
"Yeah... But I can't sleep with this... And it's obvious that you yourself can't..."Joy said.
"Yes..."I lie down by the cold ground... And sleep.. It's pretty uncomfortable for some reasons...
And by the next morning...
"Chris! Wake up! Superbook is here to take us to a time skip!!!"Joy shouted as she shake me gently.
"Uhh.. Okay.. Okay.."I sat down,still feeling a bit dizzy... Especially when Superbook is here to take us to a time skip..
We hover up the ground,and then the surroundings change,"Still.. Have find! This will be a bit... Rough..."
Rough? What will happen?
We then realized we're in the castle...
And it looks like David is playing a piece for King Saul.. Who seems.. A bit.. Disturbed??
David is at his teen look though...
"Hmmm..."The King look at David coldly.."David.."
"Yes?"David stopped playing the harp.
"Have you ever met the Prophet Samuel?"Saul asked.
"Chris..."Joy whispered.
I became a bit worried...
"Yes my King.."David replied..
Then,King Saul's anger.. Was almost out of control.."Were you anointed?"
King Saul took the Spear and Charged on David.
"My lord!"David tried to avoid some of it.. Then..
"STOP!!!"Gizmo and Joy rushed over in front of David..
"Guys!"I shouted while pulling Joy and Gizmo away.. But..
"Get out of the way if you don't want to get hurt!"King Saul dares..
"We won't let you hurt David..."Joy said calmly..
"No!"King Saul then charged on the four of us..
"Hurry! Lets go!"David took Joy's hand and ran away!
"SEIZE THEM!!!"King Saul ordered.
Then we arrived at a room...
"David! What's wrong?!"Probably..his wife..Michal..
"Your father is trying to kill me!"David shouted,"and now my friends are involved at this.."
Michal look at the window and shouted,"the soldiers are coming! You four.. Have got to go..now!!!"
as David was going down the rope.. Superbook took us to a time skip..
"How could Saul do that?! David became a good friend a served him! How could Saul be a traitor to him?!"I shouted.."even if he is a king.. He needs to be punished!"
"Chris... You can't just do that... And of course you cant.. But give King Saul a Chance.."Gizmo said.
"People like him doesn't deserve a second chance! Let David kill him!"I hope,sitting down at a chair outside a house.
"So what will you do?"A voice of someone familiar again..
Samuel?
Joy,Gizmo and I peek in to see David and Samuel talking
"I don't know... But I'm going to Gibeah.. I want to see Jonathan.."David went out, and I guess he noticed us..
"You guys.. You're safe... I thought.."David smiled.
"Don't worry bout us! We can take care of ourselves... You should worry about yourself.."I replied.
"Haha.. Anyway.. I'm heading to Gibeah.. Do you want to come?"David said
We all nodded and then ride David's horse.. But.. Yeah.. Joy take the ride, and Gizmo And I enjoy hovering on the air..
But still.. With David's young look.. I feel so... Very... Jealous! Everytime Joy is with him.. I feel like I'm nothing!!! Grr.. Well at least he is just a character from the past. No worries...
Besides,you don't like Joy.. Not even a single bit.. You're just overwhelmed becuz.. David has a lot of Girls to hang out with..
I guess...
After a while.. We arrived at Gibeah..
David snuck in the Garden, and Called on Jonathan silently.
"David?"Jonathan turned to David and smiled,"David! You're safe!"
They hugged each other and smiled.
"Is Michal Safe?"David asked
"Yes... She is fine.."Jonathan replied.
Then,David sat down.
"Gizmo.. What happened to Saul by the way?"I whispered to Giz.
"Apparently, he is being—"Gizmo stopped as Joy covered his mouth because David was about to Talk..
"What is it, Jonathan...?" David started.."What have I done to make him hate me like this?... I'm alone... And I feel like an enemy of the entire kingdom..."
Jonathan sighed and look at the castle, all quiet and down...
"David... My father is not well... He is tormented by an evil spirit... It wasn't his intention to kill you.."Jonathan explained
An evil spirit? Like the demon? Ohhh maybe my friends are tormented by evil spirits too..
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking Chris?"Joy said
"Certainly..."I nodded and crossed my arms.
Gizmo glared at us,"now you didn't heard the best part!!"
I rolled my eyes and look back at David and Jonathan,"if the king is relaxed,then I'll believe the attack was due to his torment... And I will return.. But if he gets angry.... Then we'll assume he's determined to harm me.."then David remained silent for a few minutes...
"But maybe.. I am guilty... Perhaps,I do deserve death!!"David shouted..and turned to Jonathan,"Kill me yourself then! You don't need to turn me over to your father!"
We all gasped and stepped away,"NEVER! And I won't let him kill you!"Jonathan shouted.
Then,there's this time skip again.
"Ugh.. When will these time skips stop!!!"Gizmo growled and sighed.
"Maybe tomorrow!"I chuckled.
And then, we noticed.. That were inside the castle, and inside a room... Is a banquet.
"Guys! Look! It's Jonathan!"I pointed over to Jonathan,and saw King Saul...
"But.. Where's David? Isn't that David's seat?"Joy explained... As quiet as a mouse...
"Where's the son of Jesse?"King Saul asked...
Jonathan began to sweat..."Uh..David? He had to go to Bethlehem for some urgent family matter..."
Then,King Saul tapped the table impatiently..
"CONSPIRATOR!!! FIND HIM!! Don't you see, Jonathan?! Your own Throne is in Danger!"King Saul shouted in anger,taking his spear.
"Oh no...Joy,Gizmo. Don't.."I pulled them a bit so we could avoid them.
"NO!! WHAT HAS DAVID EVER DONE WRONG?!"Jonathan shouted,Glaring at his own Father.
Then,at King Saul'a anger,he threw the spear at him.
Jonathan's eyes widened,stepping away at the spear...
"Jonathan!"Gizmo covered Joy's mouth, and we stepped away much farther!
The servants pulled King Saul to calm him down,"YOU'RE A WORTHLESS SON!!"
The Vengeance in King Saul's eyes grew more,"MY OWN SON! MY DAUGHTER! YOU'RE ALL TRAITORS! You.. Would make him King...OVER YOUR OWN FATHER!!"
Jonathan sighed and run away.
"We have to run after him.."I said
"No need!"Superbook chuckled.
"No Wait!!"We hover on the ground..
And then.. We landed on the outskirts of town..
Then we saw Jonathan.. And his servant...
Then there's David.. Hiding behind a large rock.
I squint at him and then he gave me a look of surprise.."O,oh! Y,you.. Ahh.. Haha.. Uhmm.. What are you guys doing here?"
"We followed Jonathan to be honest... We never expected to find you here.."Joy explained.
"And it seems like we skipped another day!"Gizmo said
Then,Jonathan shoot some arrows,and his servant run after it.
"Come on.. Even though Saul wanted to kill me... I still have to go back to him.. But not right now.."David said as we run with him.
"How come you are still humble even though he wanted to kill you?"I asked him.
"Because,He is also anointed.. Not only because of that.. But I grew closer to him.. He is like my father... And I don't want that to be ruin with a single evil spirit.."David explained.
Making me think much deeper.. My friends.. They almost killed us though.. But...
"Where are we going?"Joy asked,catching her breath
"In a town of Nob.. We're going to meet a priest named Ahimelech!"David explained.
Then... After a short run...
"Captain David! Welcome! And??"the man look at the three of us.
"These are my friends! Chris,Joy and Gizmo!"David replied.
"Is everything all right?"the priest asked.
"It's a secret mission I can't tell you. But I guess.. After following Jonathan and I. You three have learned a few things huh?"David turned to us.
And we all nodded.
"But Priest Ahimelech.. I need a few things for my trip.. Do you have any bread?"David asked.
"Of course captain! Come on in!"Priest Ahimelech handed a bread to David.
David look down and pack his things,"and I also need a sword.. I don't suppose you would happen to have one here?"
The priest think for a second and said,"Actually,I do have one.. It's the sword of Goliath,whom you killed.."
David's eyes widened and smiled,"ah.. Yes.. This is an excellent sword.. Thank you!"
"You are always welcome!"He replied.
Then, with a horse David borrowed, we travelled to a cave.. Called Adullam...
"David somebody's coming!"Gizmo pointed to several silhouettes coming
Then.. That music box sound of Superbook again..
"I'm taking you... To the Last battle.. Where Saul and Jonathan will be present..."Superbook said..
"What do you mean?!"Joy's eyes widened.
"See for yourself.."We landed on a place.. Where we saw many Philistines,battling Israel.
Then, we saw Jonathan, attacking the Philistines.. They must be at their 20s at this time
"What is happening?!"Joy shouted.
"This is the Battle in mount Gilboa!"Gizmo said
Then.. As I turned to Jonathan... My eyes widened... When a sword stabbed him...
"J,Jonathan..."I stepped away with my eyes widened... Tears fell from my eyes...
"Jonathan!! They just left him dead over there! Why don't they..."Joy stopped when our gaze was fixed on King Saul..
He got struck by an arrow.. But.. He take revenge on one of the Philistines.. Then he ran off..
"Come on! Let's follow him!"I shouted,taking Joy's hand and run.
As we hid behind a rock, we saw Saul and his servant.
"Hey you! Kill me right now with your sword!"King Saul said..
But the servant refused.. And so.. Saul stabbed himself...
And the army shouted.."THE KING AND THE PRINCE IS DEAD!!"
Then,Superbook take us to a time skip.
"Where are we Gizmo?"Joy asked.
"We're in Ziklag! And then... It seems like someone claims that he killed Saul..."Gizmo pointed to David.
"... If the God of Israel chose Saul to be king of Israel.. You should have been afraid to touch him!"David shouted.
What? Why isn't he grateful that Saul is dead?! The one who wanted to kill him!
We run over to David.. As he grieved for Jonathan's death..
"Jonathan..."tears fell from David's eyes..
'Oh how the Mighty Heroes have fallen!
Don't announce the news in Gath: don't proclaim it in the streets of Ashkelon.
Let there be no dew or rain on the mountains of Gilboa.
For there the shield of the mighty heroes was defiled.
O women of Israel,
Weep for Saul.
How I weep for you,
My brother Jonathan.
Your pride and joy, O Israel!
Lies dead on the hills!
Oh,how the mighty heroes have fallen...'
Then... We got back to our time.. With sadness on our face...
"I should never bear anger to my friends.. Even though they almost hurt us... I think it's better if we talk to them.. When we see them.."I said.
Joy nodded,"for now.. Let's rest.. After all what happened? Who wouldn't be tired.."
