Gods Of Egypt

Chapter 6: I Tried

After all of the cheering was said and done, in th end, we got to sit down and eat a good meal with all of the people that were in the room with us at this very moment in time. Not only was it a good meal, but at the exact same time too, it was a good mood that was in the room, as it seemed like every one had a good amount of hope with all that we were about to do. That was exactly what it was that you needed, and it was all that you could ever ask for as well.
I knew that this rebellion would not last all that long if no one had hope, and no one had hope that this was going to work, and we were going to make it out of here okay. As it turned out at the exact same time too, we had also come to find out from Sabin, that he had been hiding a bunch of weapons in his place for years on end, and we had stuff to work with when it came to the fact that we were going to go in to battle, and we were going to go to war with the evil leadership that ruled out nation.
They deserved it, though I still was a bit afraid, due to the fact that I knew that they did deserve it, as I knew what it was that was going to happen to me if we were to get caught before any of this was to even get going. I was not all too sure if it was worth the risk, but at the exact same time too, I also realized that it was too late to try to change my mind at this point, as I was one of the ones of course, that had decided that I was going to go to the meeting with Randy, to see what this was all about in the first place.
I was still a bit worried about Noah, but he had also explained as to why he was here, and how he had got in to any sort of power in to the government, as he was pretending to be some one else, who he really was not at all. He had said that he had killed the person that he was pretending to be, but he had said that it was for a good reason, and that the person deserved it. I normally would not tolerate such act, but after he had told me what it was that the person had done to him and his family, I felt like that was one of the instances were I would excuse him for it.
The man did not have his family any more due to that, and I felt quite a bit bad for him, as I was not all too sure as to what it was that I would do if I was to lose my wife at any point. It was a lot of the reason that I was scared to join all of them in the rebellion at the exact same time as well, as I knew that if I were to get caught, than it meant that I was going to get killed no matter what, and whilst I was not really scared of losing my own life, I knew that my wife needed me right now, and I could not take that risk.
I knew at the same time too, that I could not take the risk of my child having to grow up in a world as evil as the one that we were in right now, so I felt like that cancelled all of it out in the end, as I knew that some thing needed to be done, as I let out a bit of a soft sight to my self, at the exact same time too, as I then bit in to the fresh chicken that I was eating on right now. It was one of the best that I had ever tasted, as I knew that it was fresh, and nothing had been done to it, for it do change it to not being fresh.
Clearly Sabin was in on some thing, as I knew that he was not ready to tell us as to just what it was, if he really was in on all of this, and he actually did have good plans. I also knew at the exact same time too, that if he had bad intent for all of us, and this was in fact a trap that I had just some how managed to get my self stuck in, than he would not tell us about it either way. I felt a bit sick, as I shivered at the exact same time as well, as I did my best to try to shake off all of those thoughts from my head at the exact same time as well, as I just kept on eating on the best chicken that I had eaten ever since I had been a young child.
I wonder just what it was that our government had done to make the new chicken so nasty, as I some times wondered if all of it was even chicken, or if they perhaps had put some stuff in it that they had not told us about, because of course, if they did tell us about it, than they might get a little bit worried that we might try to do some thing to stop them from what it was that they were doing. Of course, that was why I was here in the first place, as I was going to help stop the government from all of the evil that they were doing to every one.
I nodded to my self, as I then began to take some bites in to the carrots, as the carrots tasted very fresh as well, as I was not going to complain about the meal that Sabin, and who ever else had helped him cook, had cooked for us in the very first place. I had come to find out that Sabin was a good man in the end, and he had some bad things happen to him in the past, that had got him to the point as to where it was that he was at now, where he could not stand our leadership any longer, and he felt like he had to put a stop to all of the evil that they were doing to us.
He had told me that behind the table though, as he had made sure not to tell any one else as to what it was that had happened to him and his family when he was a lot younger, as he was just a bit younger than me. I knew that this was some thing now that I needed to do more than ever, as I had just nodded to him, and I had listened to each and every word that he had said to me, with my eyes locked on him, so that he knew that I was in fact paying attention to what it was that he had to say to me in the very first place any ways.
I shook off all of those thoughts at the exact same time too, as I then turned my head over to Randy and Sabin at the same time as well, who I could see that the both of them were speaking to each other a bit quietly, which I was not all too worried about Randy at all in this case, meaning that I was not worried about Sabin either, as I knew Randy very well, and I knew that he was not just a good man, but he was a good friend to have by your side, which meant that he was the perfect man to take in to battle as a captain, as I smiled just a bit to my self at the exact same time too.
I was not smiling at all, due to the fact of all of the stuff that had happened to Randy in the past in fact, as I was more just happy to see that we had a little bit of hope, and that we had a chance to do some thing about all that was going on in the world, in the very first place any ways, as I then finished the last bite of some green beans, before I then began to wipe off my face from the very good, and very delicious meal that I had just been a part of, with the rest of the people that were at the table, that looked just as happy as the rest of us, to be here right now.
This was exactly what it was that you wanted, and this was exactly what it was that you needed to have a good leader, as I knew that you could not have a good leader, if the leader did not know how to lead, and how to make all of the people that were around them happy at all. This was all seeming to go a little bit too perfectly if I was going to be honest with my self, as it felt like some thing was destined to go wrong very soon from now, though I suppose at the exact same time too, it was not a good idea to think that kind of way, as I knew that if I thought like that, than the odds were, that some thing was doomed to happen to us. I did not want any of that to happen, as every one in this room was a good person, and they all had the same plans, and the same ideas that the rest of us had.
I nodded just a little bit to my self once again, as I then all of the sudden saw Sabin lift him self up from out of his chair, as he let out a very loud cough to try to get the attention of every one that was in the room at this very moment in time, on him, so that we could hear as to just what it was that he was saying in the very first place any ways. I lifted my head up, and I looked at our leader right in to his eyes, and I nodded to him, to make sure that he knew that I was one of the ones in the room that was in fact paying attention to what it was that he had to say to us in the very first place any ways.
As it turns out, I was not the only one that was paying attention to him either, as I heard the dinner table begin to go quiet, as it was clear that every ones attention was now on Sabin, as Sabin smiled a bit to every one, and he then nodded to every one, glad to see that every one was paying attention to him right now, as it was clear to see that all of the eyes were on him right now, which I did not blame him for, as I was sure that he wanted to make sure that every one was to hear each and every word that he was about to say to them, especially if it was some thing that had to be very important, which I was going to assume this was, as I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self.
Sabin stared at every one that was at table with him right now, as he then all of the sudden turned his head over to Noah, as if he was the one that was the leader in all of this right now, rather than it be Sabin, which confused me just a bit, as I was fairly certain that Sabin was supposed to be the leader in the rebellion, and not Noah. Noah was going to be one of the 3 captains, as me and Randy were going to be the other. I had to assume that Sabin was looking at Noah, to let him know that Noah was going to be the main captain, and to let Noah know, that if any thing at all were to happen to him, than Noah was going to be the one to take over.
I was not all too sure about all of this, as I was not all too sure at all, as to just who it was that was going to be a better leader just yet, as this all seemed to be a bit of a blur to me, as it was so far, as all that I had paid attention to, was what my job was going to be, which was of course the fact that I was going to have to go and try to get other people to join the rebellion, which felt like it was going to be the most dangerous job of them all, because I knew that if any one was to snitch on me, than I knew that I was done for in the end.
I knew that I was going to have to be wise with the words that I was going to have to choose, in order to try to get any one to join up with us in the rebellion, which I was well aware of, as I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self, and I then gulped a bit at the exact same time as well, before I then began to start to pay attention to Sabin, as I finally heard his voice begin to speak, which luckily enough cleared all of my thoughts, at least for the time being, as I got my eyes back on him, as I then began to listen as to what it was that he had to say to every one that was in the room with him, in the very first place any ways.
"Alright every one, I see that most of you are done with your meal, and I am sorry to cut it off so soon, but it is about to get dark out, and I want to make sure that every one returns home safely... Our next meeting will be a week from today, so be sure to be ready for all of that, alright?" He said to every one, as he squinted his eyes at all of us, as it was clear as to what it was that he was getting at in the first place any ways, as I saw a lot of people nod to him, to let him know that they had heard as to what it was that he had just said, as I saw a sad look on the face of a few others as well, as if they wanted to be here, and they wanted to talk to one another a little bit more.
I was not all too sure as to why that would be the case at all, as I knew that Sabin was a bit right with what it was that he had just said, as I knew that I needed to get home before it was dark, for one, to make sure that my wife was okay, but also for the other thing, I knew that I needed to get home before it was dark, due to the fact that I knew how bad it was when ever it was to get dark out, as I knew that I did not want to freeze to death on the way home, as I knew that it was a fair bit aways from where it was that I was at right now, as I let out a bit of a soft sigh, and then I nodded to my self.
I heard a few groans from some people, but no one really complained about the fact that they had to leave the table, and get back to their homes, as I was sure that a lot of them knew that Sabin was right with what it was that he had said about the fact that it was going to get dark not all too long from now, but also the fact that a lot of them I was sure knew that they had to get back home to their families, before it was too late, which I was glad that no one was going against what it was that he had just said, as it was clear that Sabin was already proving to me as to how he was a good leader, and how we were going to make it out of this, and how we were all going to be fine.
I was glad for it, as I lifted my self up from off of the table, and I began to lift up my plate, which I then saw that Sabin now had his eyes on me, as he then shook his head at me, due to the fact that I was lifting my plate from off of the table, to try to take it to where ever it was his kitchen was at. I felt a bit bad for the fact that I did not want to leave too big of a mess on his table, as I knew that he lived out on his own, and he was going to have to clean all of this up by him self.
It was clear how ever, that he was not all too worried about any of that at all how ever, as it was clear that he was just waiting for every one to leave. I could tell that he was a bit worn out, which I did not blame him for, as I was sure that it was harder on him than it was on the rest of us, as not only had we had quite a hard and rough week at work as it was so far, but it was also the fact that I am sure that he was staying up late, due to the fact that he had a lot of stress on him self, as to the fact that he was having to lead a rebellion through all of the hard times that the world was going through right now.
I felt a bit bad for the man, as I felt like I should offer to try to help him, but at the exact same time too, I also knew that I could not do as such a thing, as I knew that I needed to get back home to Sandy, and I needed to go and cook some thing for her, and make sure that she was okay at the exact same time too, as I still was not all too sure if I should tell her about the fact that I was going to go and help lead a rebellion, especially with all that she was having to go through at this very moment in time, with the fact that she had to go and give birth to a baby, and not just that, but she was going to have to practically raise the baby her self, as I was not going to be home most of the week.
Not only that, but if I actually was going to be going in to this rebellion, than I knew that I might not be at home at all a lot of the time, if I was going to be having to bring people in to the rebellion for one thing, and also the fact that what it was that we were going to be doing when I was going to have to be going in to battle. I knew that I was going to have to tell her at some point in the near future, but for now, I felt like it was just some thing that I should leave to my self for now, at the very least, as I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self at the exact same time as well, and I then began to leave the room that I was in right now, now that I knew that Sabin just wanted me to leave, which I was fine with, if I was going to be completely, and perfectly honest with my self.
I felt like now should be the time that I should try to tell Sandy about all of this, as a part of me was worried about her, but at the exact same time too, I also knew that I should not be, as I knew that she hated to government, and she hated the leadership, just as much as the rest of us, as I was fairly certain that she was going to support me on all of this, if I was going to be completely honest with my self. I still felt like I was stuck in a rock, and a hard place how ever, as I just was not all too sure as to what it was that was more important to me right now.
Helping my wife raise my child, or to help the rebellion, and to make sure that my child grew up in a good world, where the child did not have to worry about all too much, as that was the hope at the very least, as I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at the exact same time as well, and I then began to walk out of the room, along with a bunch of other people, so that I could leave his house, and I could get on my way back home, to make sure that my wife was going to be okay, and that there was nothing that I needed to be all too worried about at this very moment in time, as I then stopped my self at the front door at the exact same time too, to hear the excited voice of Randy, as I heard him say my name at the exact same time too.
I was kind of annoyed by it, if I was going to be completely honest with my self, once again, as I just wanted to get on my way back home, though I did turn my head around, to let my friend know that I was listening as to what it was that he had to say to me for what every reason in the very first place any ways, as I then nodded to him at the exact same time too, to make sure that he knew for a fact, that I he had my full attention, on to what it was that he had to say in the first place, as I then saw him nod right back over to me.
I saw quite an excited look on his face still, which made quite a bit of sense to me at the exact same time too, as I knew that he would be excited about all of this, if this was a real thing that we were actually going to do, as I knew that he wanted full revenge for what it was that the government, and the leadership had done to his wife quite a bit of some time ago now. I still remember when the world was not as cruel, and it was not as evil as it was today, but I now was starting to realize at the exact same time too, that it was a very long time ago that it was like that, as I had not even met my now love of my life, my wife, Sandy, but during that time.
I shook off all of those thoughts all at the exact same time as well, as I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I kept my eyes locked on Randy, to make sure that he knew for a fact, that I was paying attention to him right now, as he then finally began to speak to me, and I did in fact, of course, then begin to listen as to what it was that he had to say to me in the very first place any ways, as I stared him down, through all of it.
"So... What do you think about all of this Randolph? Do you think that we actually have a chance to do some thing, and to put a stop to all of the evil that is going on in the world right now?" He asked me, as it was clear that he was waiting for a full, and a genuine response to what it was that he had just now said to me in the very first place at the exact same time too. The only problem was how ever, was the fact that I felt like I did not have time to respond to what it was that he had just asked me in the first place.
I rolled my eyes at Randy, as I let out a bit of a rough, and a bit of an annoyed sigh at the exact same time too, which I was sure that he had not noticed at all, and if he some how had in fact noticed me do such a thing, than it was clear that he had not cared a single bit as to what it was that I had done in the very first place any ways, as I dipped my head a bit low to the ground all of the sudden, not all too sure as to what it was that I should do in the very first place any ways.
I turned my head away from my friend, as I then stared at the front door that was in front of me, which I could hear a lot of voices coming from, as it was clear that a few people were still talking to one another, which I felt like had a lot to do with what it was that had just gone down in the very first place any ways, but also the fact that I was sure that it also had a lot to do with the fact that they just wanted to talk to one another about all that was going on in each other's lives right now in the very first place any ways. Either way, none of that really mattered all too much to me right now.
My mind felt like it as a little bit stuck right now, if I was going to be for real with my self, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that was going on with me right now, as I felt like I needed to get my self out of what ever hex I had my self stuck in right now, as I then let out another much more soft sigh to my self, as I felt a bit of some chill night air begin to blow in to the room that I was in right now, as I could tell that we did not have all that much longer until it then got fully dark out side, and it was even more cold.
I felt like a bit of an idiot for wearing a sweat shirt now, even though I knew that was what I normally wore when ever I went to work. I should have known that this meeting was going to be a long one, and I should have been ready for all of it at the exact same time as well, as I felt like I did not have any one to blame but my self. I just was not all too sure as just what it was that was going on with me right now, if I was going to be serious with my self, as I felt like I needed to wake up, and I needed to get my self back to normal, as I then nodded to my self at the exact same time as well, before I then all of the sudden turned my head back over to Randy, remembering that he had in fact just spoken to me not all too long ago, and I was fairly certain that he was waiting for a bit of a response at the exact same time as well, as to what it was that he had just said to me in the very first place as well.
I was not all too sure, if we did have much of a chance, if I was going to be honest with my self, and I was going to be honest with him, as I knew that the leadership, and their government was a lot stronger than any thing that we had, even if Sabin did say he had been storing up weapons for quite a bit of some time now. I still felt like all of this was an awful idea, but at the exact same time too, I also knew that the more that we sat here and waited for some thing to change, the more stronger, and the more powerful the government would end up being, meaning that we would not have any sort of chance at all, to do some thing about this, and to do any sort of change to all of it as well.
I shook off all of those thoughts at the exact same time too, as I knew that I needed to stay strong right now how ever, and I at least needed to have some sort of hope at the very least, as to what it was that we were going to do, and what it was that we should do, as I then nodded to my self at the exact same time as well, before I then nodded to Randy too, to let him know that I was in fact finally ready to speak back to him, after quite a bit of some time of silence in the room.
Randy blinked his eyes a few times, but in the end he did in fact nod back to me, to let me know that he was paying attention to me, and that he was listening as to what it was that I had to say to him in the very first place any ways, which made me feel a bit better, as I did in fact begin to start to speak up to him, now that I knew that he too was well aware that I was speaking to him, and that he too was listening as to what it was that I even had to say to him in the very first place any ways.
"I am not all too sure about all of it Randy, if you want me to be perfectly honest with my self... I will keep going to the meetings, but if it does not seem like we have a chance, than I will stop going to them... I have a wife that needs me right now, and I will soon have a child not all too long from now... I think I need to have my focus on that for the time being..." I said to him, saying quite some wise words, that even I was a little bit surprised my self, to even hear quit such wise and smart words come out of my mouth in the very first place any ways. I knew that I was a smart guy, but some times it seemed like my brain showed me things that I did not even know that I could do. I was a little bit shocked by what it was that I had said still, but I did my best to hide the shocked look on my face at the exact same time too, as I then began to get my eyes back on Randy, as I then continued to speak to him once again, which I knew that he was still paying attention to me, and he was listening to me, so that was not some thing that I really needed to be all too worried about at all right now, as I continued to speak to him. "Speaking of that... I need to get back on home, before it gets too cold... I am sure she is waiting for me back at home..."
Randy looked at me for just a little while longer, as I could tell that he had a bit of a guilty look on his face, as to the fact that he had forgot that I had a wife that was pregnant, and that I was soon to have a baby at the exact same time as well, which I knew that was what I really needed to have my focus on at this very moment in time, as I then saw him nod to me at the exact same time as well, as I knew that he still felt a bit bad for the fact that he knew Sandy quite a bit well too, as I knew that they had been good friends growing up, which was the reason that I had met her in the first place, as we had been mutual friends.
Randy turned his head away from me, as I could tell that he did not have all that much else to say to me now, as I could tell that he felt quite a bit guilty still, due to the fact that he had some how still managed to forget about one of his own good friends as well, as he then began to walk back in to the room that Sabin and Noah were still in right now, almost as if he was not going to be going home tonight, as I knew that it was going to be very cold by the time that I got home, and he lived further away from Sabin's place than I did.
It would not surprise me at the exact same time too, if he was to stay at his place, as I knew that Randy did not like to be at his own home any more, after all of the memories that he had once had with his wife there. I was sure that he was in pain every time he went in to his home, so I did not blame him for not wanting to ever go back there, as I knew that he had stayed at my place a few nights, just still a bit freaked out to go back home to the place that he almost felt like, was haunted, as he had told me.
I felt like it was my self at the exact same time too, so I really did not blame him for that, as I happily let him stay at my place some nights, which I was sure that he was going to go and ask Sabin if he could stay at his place for the night, just due to that. I was sure that Sabin was going to say yes at the exact same time too, as I had come to find out, that Sabin was a very kind, and a very nice guy. I knew that Sabin also knew very well as to what Randy had to go through, as that was a lot of the reason he had chose him to be a captain. I knew that Sabin had plenty of rooms for him to stay in as well, so I should not be too worried, or too focused on any of it at all right now.
I sighed just a bit too my self, as I shook off all of those thoughts all at the exact same time as well, as I then turned my head to the front of Sabins place at the exact same time too, as I saw that it was now empty, and that there was no one to be seen around here any more, as it felt quite a bit cold, as well as the fact that it felt to be quite a bit scary at the exact same time as well, as I then shook my head, seeing that every one had left the place now, as I felt like I should join them, as I began to head over to the front door to the home.
I opened it, feeling the cold breeze flow through the room, as I then felt quite a bit bad for Randy, as I really did hope that he had a place to stay for the night in the end. I let out a bit of a rough sigh, all at the exact same time as well, as I then kept my focus on just what it was that I was doing right now in the very first place any ways, as I then nodded just a bit to my self, before I then began to start to head out of Sabin's house, not getting my mind on any thing else, as I knew that I needed to get back home.
