It was morning. Courtney had miraculously healed and stood up, she still needed help walking though. We were sitting in the truck. Nick and Abby were in the front while, Courtney, Nate and I sat in the back. Courtney was sitting beside Nate watching as we made sure our weapons were intact
"We have a plan for when this inevitably goes south, right?" Courtney asked, I glanced up to Nate who was still checking the rifle in his hands
"Uhh no. Not exactly" I said looking back at the hand gun then putting it back on the holster on my right leg then grabbing my knife off the floor and putting it in it's place on my leg, then doing the same with three others
"What're you doing with all those knives?" Courtney asked
"Remember when my dad taught us how to fight?" I countered as I grabbed another hand gun and put it in the holster on my left leg
"Yeah" Courtney replied wearily
"Well, long story short, I know Silat and Krav Maga and so do you, at least I think you do" I replied. I wasn't proud of it but it kept me alive, so I was grateful
"Two of the most deadly fighting styles and my best friend knows them? Fun" Courtney said sarcastically
"Well, in fairness, you're basically a genius" I replied as I stood up and walked toward Nick
"How far away are we?" I asked him
"We're not" Nick replied, Abby slapped his arm and I glanced at her. Trouble in paradise or what?
"We're here" Nick said as he stopped the truck, I turned around and shoved the back door open before hopping out; I saw a sign, it read Yoranstein.
"How are we getting inside?" Abby asked me as she walked toward me
"Remember that girl that freed you?" I asked her
"Yes" she answered cautiously
"Her" I replied, I saw fear flash across her face
"Don't worry. She helped me escape. She's a friend" I said
"But we can't get in contact with her, can we?" Nick asked and Nate put his hand on Nick's shoulder
"Don't tell me that you're doubting the Princess?" Nate asked
"No, I'm thinking realistically. If we contacted her, then we'd be dead because they're Savages and if we don't, we die at the hands of Annabeth's father and then 60 other people die" Nick said
"Don't worry, I got a plan, Nick and I don't think anybody's going to die. At least for today" I said, it was quiet for a moment and they all looked at me
"You mind filling us in on that plan?" Nate asked and I nodded
"The Barracks are on the outside of the city, Zehra is a warrior and in someway superior to the others; so I figure she's gotta show up eventually" I said
"And if they see us, we'll just be hunted down like dogs until we all have knife cutting our throats" Abby said unenthusiastically
"Yeah, it'll be fun" I said with a nod and a smile as I turned around and started walking
"If dying a horrible death is your idea of fun" Courtney muttered as she followed me
