chapter twenty-one: E
It was clear to me that I wouldn't be able to convince the others not to fight. They were proud people. I knew that eventually that trait would probably get them killed. Still I was jealous of the fact that they had the ability to be so fearless.
I sighed deeply and looked towards the ocean. I couldn't see it but I knew that there was a ship on it's way.
"We don't have a lot of time. You guys may be better at surviving and defending yourselves than me, but I was practically raised by some of these guys. They won't fight fair. They will do what they feel necessary to win. We can't take any chances what so ever with these guys." I told them.
"We know. We only have so much time to make a plan." Sam stated.
We decide that we would all wait on a cloud for the guards to show up. When they did Sam, May, and I would jump down and attack them using our abilities. Max would lower the cloud so he and Am could get off safely. Am would attack using whatever she could find as a weapon.
None of us wanted to fight. We would rather reach a compromise peacefully. We all knew that we didn't have a choice though. We had to fight in order to protect the way of life that the others had created, and to prevent the queen from hurting others.
We waited. We waited for what felt like hours. Nothing happened. No one showed up. We began to think that no one would show up when May spotted a ship on the horizon. We all stood up and watched it get slightly closer. My heart stopped.
"Here we go.," Max said as he lowered the cloud we were on slightly. "Try to land on your feet when you jump this time E."
"Hardy har har." I retorted sarcastically. I was actually really worried abd everyone else knew it. I wasn't trying to hide it. None of us were. We were all afraid and we weren't ashamed to show it.
