Chapter 16: Replaced?

Alesa's P.O.V
I put my hand on the side of Zane's face and turn his head towards me. His eyed are closed. There are bruises all over him. I look at Red and Kim and then back at Zane. I put my arms around him and pull him up. I move a little bit under him and put my back against the side of the cage. I put him down and his back against me. His head rests on my shoulder. Kim's been messing with him mind, just like Seto. The door opens again and it's Brice. I look at Brice. Brice looks at me.

"Alesa. Did they hurt you?" He asks. I shake my head and look at Zane.

"Dead Army Captain Brice? Am I correct?" Kim asks. Brice looks at Kim.

"Yeah." He said.

"Well I guess I'm the new Commander of the Dead Army then." She said. My eyes widen. She took out Ty?! I look at Kim.

"W-What?" Brice asks. Red smirks.

"Ty is taking a leave of absence forever." Red said.

Brice's P.O.V
I look at Red. I clench my fists. I go towards him but guards grab me and yank me back. Kim stands up. Zane looks horrible. Alesa is wearing Sky's amulet. Don't tell me they took out Sky as well.

"It seems a certain Commander is still alive and free. I want you to find Commander Jason and kill him. If you find Sky by any chance, do the same." She said. I stare at Kim for a second. Wait this is my chance to get out of here then. Find Jason and come up with a plan to free the others. A sword goes under my chin. "And if you do not return with Jason dead, the remaining Commanders will be all over the walls including Zane and you."

Ty's P.O.V
I open my eyes staring at a stone wall. I'm back in the cell. I can't move any limbs. I gave in. I gave into them. My recruits. Tears form in my eyes.

"Ty. Ty!" Someone said.

"Give it up Mitch. He's not gonna wake up." Another one said. That's Mitch and Jerome. Where are the others? Pain. Pain is all I feel and so weak. Can I please just die already? I lost everything. I sold out my recruits. I look down seeing and feel a puddle of blood under me. I close my eyes, laying still.

"He can't. The Dead Army will be without a Commander." Someone said. The Dead Army has no Commander. I betrayed all my recruits. I wanted them to be safe and unharmed. Why would I believe Red? Why?!

"I know Jacey. Ty are you awake?" Mitch asks. No. No I'm not.

"Mitch-"

"Jerome he's gonna die if we don't do something. He only has so much blood." Mitch said. I open my eyes. I hear my cell door open and a loud thud comes behind me.

"Zane!" Jerome said. I close my eyes. I want to sleep any never wake up again.

Zane's P.O.V
I stare at the ceiling. My head hurts so much.

"Zane wake up. We need you man." Someone said. Wait those voices are familiar. I look to the side seeing Mitch and Jerome on the other side of some bars. I sit up.

"Hey there you guys are." I said.

"Look beside you Zane." Mitch said. Okay. I look on the other side and my eyes widen. O my god it's Ty. I get up instantly and move around him so I'm in front of him. I pit my hand on his shoulder.

"Is he still breathing?" Jerome asks. I put my hand on Ty's neck.

"Yes but it's faint." I said. So this is were Ty is. I heard about what Kim said to Brice. But I didn't believe it. "I was hoping she wasn't telling the truth."

"What?" Jerome asks. I look at him.

"About Ty. Kim said she was the Commander of the Dead Army now." I said. Jacey gasps. I look at her.

"Does that mean Ty really did-"

"He had to have had a reason if he did. Ty isn't one to give in so easily." Mitch said. I bend down a little to see Ty's face. Cuts are on his face as well. I take off my jacket and pull off my shirt. I put back on my jacket. I'm gonna wrap up his arms. His arms are stilling bleeding and I don't want him to bleed out.

"What else has been happening?" Jerome asks. I look at Jerome and stop. I stare at him for a few more seconds. "Yes I know I look different to you. Can we move pass it Zane?" I rip up my shirt a into strips at the bottom.

"Sky's dead." I said.

"What?!" Jacey almost yelled.

"Whoa wait. Did they find a body?" Mitch asks. I shake my head. Mitch smiles. "Then he isn't dead."

"Red found his amulet and it has blood on it." I said as I begin wrapping up Ty's left arm.

"That means he's injured but not dead." Jerome said. I tie a knot and it rests in Ty's palm. I wrapped up from almost halfway to his shoulder to his hand. I begin working on his other arm.

"Jason's missing. Kim is sending Brice to go kill him." I said. I feel Ty's arm move instantly. I look at his face seeing his eyes still closed.

"Brice wouldn't hurt Jason." Jerome said.

"It's either that or you two die." I said. I finish up Ty's other arm.

"Anything else? Alesa?" Mitch asks.

"She's locked in a cage near Kim. She isn't going anywhere. Seto hasn't come back yet. Something must have happened." I said. I sit on the floor in front of Ty. Ty won't be able to hold a sword let alone a knife with his cut up hands and arms. He's basically down for the count for the rest of this.

"Sky will come." Mitch said. I look at Mitch.

"How do you know?" I ask.

"He's Sky. He would rather die then leave any of us behind." Jerome said.

I will say one thing right now...this book is close to ending..
