Into the Edge

Controled

"We were gathering supplies, what else would we be doing?" I say.

"I don't know, sleeping?" Jerry says.

"It's only 9:15, curfew is in forty five minutes, we have plenty of time." James says.

"Oh." Jerry says.

"Well, first things first, let's do some thing about your stomach Jerry." I say.

"Is the bullet still in you?" Liam asks.

"No, it went right through me." Jerry says.

"Okay, so since the bullet went through you, we won't have to anything major, just a couple bandages. How about, two long pieces of gauze?" I say.

"That should be fine, and some tape? You know, to hold the gauze down." Lauren says.

As I bandage Jerry, Ellie doesn't have any major injuries, just a couple of mild bruises.

"So, Ellie, Jerry, how did you ever get here? I thought you, you know, died?" I ask.

"That's what we thought, until the Fire Blazers saved us! With there life bug, they can bring anything and anyone back to life, but with there kill bug, they can kill anything. They can even change how you look with there beauty bug, it's truly a miracle." Ellie says happily.

"Yes, they're the most nicest, caring people in the world." Jerry says happily.

"What did they do to you?" I ask.

"Nothing? Why?" Ellie says.

"Your acting strange." I say.

"Ah!" Lauren screams.

"What is it Lauren?" Liam asks.

"There is a bug on Ellie's neck! A big green bug!" Lauren says.

"There's one on Jerry's neck too!" James says.

"Tie them to the tree!" I yell.

"Why?" Liam says.

"Just do it!" I yell.

"I don't know why, but sure. I just love tying people to trees. Liam says." As Lauren, Liam, and James tie Ellie and Jerry to the tree.

Ellie and Jerry try to resist, but since it's two against three we have the advantage. What did these so call Fire Blazers do to them?

"Take the bugs off of their necks!" I say. As Liam and James try to take them off.
There not coming off! Liam and James yell.

I take two pairs of scissors from the first aid kit and give them to James and Liam. And then I say. Cut them off, I don't care if they bleed, give them, some gauze and bandage them after. I yell. Ellie and Jerry clench there teeth trying not to scream, but I can tell by there facial expressions that the pain is extreme. When Liam and James finally get the bugs off, Ellie and Jerry are oozing out this green and yellow puss, they ooze for about ten minutes. Then, when the puss finally stopped oozing out of them, they bleed for about five more minutes.

"Ellie? Jerry? Are you okay?" I whisper.

"What happened? Where am I? Are the Fire Blazers here?" Ellie says.

"No Ellie, your safe, your in the edge, we're going to escape, but we need your help." I say.

"That's even worse!" Jerry says.
