Hero Book 2

Chapter 4: Battle in the Mountains.

"Landon, Alex, Lucy! King Death is ready to send you to hunt and kill the breachers!" Joshua said as he walked towards them.

"Okay! I can't wait to feel their blood on my hands!" Lucy laughed.

"I'd definitely love to feel the blood on my hands," Landon said sarcastically.

"Shut up! No sarcasm allowed or I'll kill you too!" Alex yelled.

"Ok, ok! Yeesh," Landon said.

"Hurry up, you three. I'll be waiting for you with King Death," The guy from the day before said. Back over on Jan Mayen island, everyone was waking up.

"Daniel!? I didn't expect you to be up yet!?" Caleb said as he looked at Daniel.

"I didn't want to be up yet but I also didn't want to get dragged by the ear so I got up anyway," Daniel responded.

"That's too bad! I would have loved to drag you by the ear and throw you into the training arena with a fully equipped Caleb!", Milla yelled from down the hall, laughing.

"I think he was referring to Issac practically pulling his ear off!" Tom yelled.

"Please, I'd beat him to it today", She yelled back.

"Speaking about it, where is Issac?" Daniel asked.

"Barely awake. He had a rough night last night with whatever he was doing," Caleb said as he pointed across the room to a half-asleep Issac.

"Yeah, I would love to eat the beans," Issac said as he yawned.

"Hey, Issac what the heck?", Milla yelled.

"What the heck was he doing?" Daniel asked.

"Overtraining," Tom said.

"No! I hate oversleeping! I won't allow it!" Issac said as he barely stood up and stumbled over to Tom. Just then Milla ran into the room and slapped him into the ground.

"You need to sleep", she said as she walked right back out.

"Are we sure he isn't just drunk?" Caleb asked.

"How would you know? Have you ever been drunk?" Daniel asked.

"No, but he's acting weird and you know that people act weird when they get drunk in the movies!" Caleb said.

"Gosh! He isn't drunk! Where would he even find anything to drink!? Plus he hates beer and wine," Tom said.

"Oh yeah, I stole like three whiskeys from my parents' place", Milla yelled.

"There you have it! He must have had a whiskey!" Caleb said.

"Nope. He always asks before doing that to make sure it isn't someone else's plus all three are right there," Tom said as he pointed to a cooler. "It doesn't look like it was opened last night."

"How can you tell?" Caleb said as he went over to the cooler and dug through it.

"You can't read Norwegian so good luck finding them. Ha! I really had him thinking it was just a soda!", Milla yelled from outside.

"This is the dumbest thing to fight about ever. Isn't there some way to tell if he's drunk with the equipment he has?" Daniel asked.

"Or you can just take my word for it! The man's gonna be tripping for a while but I do think he has something to induce sobriety in his med bag!", Milla yelled, now back in the base and down a hallway.

"Uh, sorry can you maybe simplify that a little?" Daniel asked.

"Wow, Leon! You always needed help with big or complex words," Issac said.
