It had been quite a bit of a rough time for me, and not just me, but also for my friends, over the past few weeks. It came to no sort of surprise to me as to the fact that no one liked me, as that was simply due to the fact that I was an orc, as I was kind of used to it at this point any ways. My friends tried to tell me that it was because they were jealous that they were not as strong as I was, but I knew that it was not the case at all. I knew that the reason they did not like me, was just due to the fact that I was an orc. It was kind of like what it was that Rufus had said the first night that he had come in to our tent to have to stay with us, when he had said 'I did not sign up for this'. I was sure that there were a lot of other people thinking the same thing that he had been when he had first found out that he had to sleep next to an orc.
They did not have it nearly as rough as Rufus had it, but that did not mean that they were going to like me at all, as I knew that they were talking about me behind my back, as I had heard the word orc, and even my own name from some people who knew my name, and had heard about me none the less. I knew that they were not simply talking about orcs, just to talk about them, and to talk about the fact that we were going to go be raiding and attacking some of their villages. I knew that there was a much different, and deeper as well as a darker meaning to just what it was that they were saying, as I was starting to think that they were plotting some thing against me, if I was not going to lie to my self.
Maybe that was just me being paranoid how ever, as I wish that they would at least give me a chance. Sure, maybe I was not the best guy to meet, but I damn sure was a good friend, which was some thing that both Ashton and Eldon could attest to, as I looked over at the both of them, at the table that I was at with the rest of the legion at this very moment in time as well, as we were waiting for our lunch to be served to us now, as there were some good females cooks that were a part of the legion at the exact same time as well. It was not nearly as good as the food that was cooked at Paris's place, nor nearly as good as the food that my father made for me, but it was a lot better than I had been expecting, as I could say that for sure.
I knew that it was not going to last long how ever, as I knew that once we were to go out and go to war, they woman would be left to stay here, as war was no place for a woman, as I had been told time and time again. I had met some strong women in my time, but none of them had ever wanted to join the army at all. I sighed just a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I got my focus off of all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time as well, as I then got my focus on the fact that I could see the food being carried out to us now, as I heard the sighs of relief flood through out the table, as to the fact that our food had finally come to us, and that it was finally ready for us at the exact same time as well.
It was not the best quality of chicken, but it would do for now, as I saw the lady that handed me my food, move back a bit as soon as she had done as such a thing, as I could tell that she was quite a bit scared of me, which I felt like I could not blame her for either, as it came back to me, the stories that I had been told about what it was that orcs did to women. I was not one of those orcs, as it just so happened to be the case how ever, but there was not really any thing that I could do to convince the lady other wise, as it kind of felt like it was not worth my time, at the exact same time as well, any ways, as I then shook off all of those thoughts, and I grabbed the fork gently, and I began to bite in to the food.
My friends did the same time as I did, as I we began to enjoy the meal that had been made for us. I saw a few of the men look at me with a bit of a look of disgust, but they did not say a word about it at all. I dipped my head a little bit low to the ground, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew as to just why it was that they were even as to any sort of disgusted in the very first place any ways. I knew that it was not just due to the fact that they had to sit at a table with an orc, but it was also the fact that the way that I ate my food was quite a bit nasty. My friends did not say a word to it, but I could feel the stares on me right now, which kind of scared me if I was not going to lie to my self, as well as the fact that it made me feel just a little bit sick.
I let out a bit of a soft sigh how ever, as I did my best to try to get my focus off of all of those thoughts, as I looked over at my 2 friends that were right beside me right now, as I could tell that they did not have the best of table manners either, which might have been some thing that they had got from me. I did not give a care in the world about any of it at all how ever, as I rolled my eyes just a bit to my self, as I felt like I was a lot more safe looking at them, than looking at the rest of the people that were with me at the table right now, as I could still see from the corner of my eye, that people were moving their plates, as if they were worried that my mouth might some how get near their food right at this very moment in time as well.
I rolled my eyes just a bit to my self, as I then turned my head over to Rufus, all at the exact same time as well, as I saw that he had a bit of a blank look on his face, as he continued to bite in to his own piece of chicken. I felt quite a bit bad for the poor guy, as I knew that he did not have any friends here. I felt like I should try to make a friend out of him, but at the exact same time as well, it was a little bit hard for me to forgive him for the fact that he did not want to share a tent with me, just due to the fact that I just so happened to be an orc. I felt like I should get over it at this point, as Rufus just tended to stick to him self at this point, as he did not seem to be on the train with every one else any longer, on the fact that every one simply hated me, due to the fact that I was an orc.
I shook my head, as I then all of the sudden looked away from the poor guy, all at the exact same time as well, as I then got my focus on the fact that I heard the voice of Ashton, as he began to speak to me through the fact that he had food in his mouth right now, from not all too far away. That was not some thing that I had taught him, as I could say that for a fact, as I always made sure to keep my mouth closed when ever I ate at a table. I rolled my eyes a bit how ever, as I got my focus off of all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time as well, as I looked at Ashton right in to his eyes, as I heard him begin to speak to me, all at the exact same time as well, never the less, as I saw him and to me too.
I tilted my head a bit at first, as I was a little bit lost as to just what it was that he had to say to me at the table, as it was clearly interrupting our meal right now. I shook off all of those thoughts all at the exact same time as well, as I felt like I should just go ahead and get straight to the point in all of it how ever, as I really did not feel like wasting any sort of time at this point in my life, as I was starting to realize just how valuable time even was at this point, in the very first place any ways. I blinked my eyes a few times still, as I was still quite a bit lost by all of this, but in the end, I did in fact nod back to Ashton, to let him know that he had my full attention on him, as to just what it was that he even had to say to me in the very first place any ways. Ashton too, blinked his eyes a few times, as I then all of the sudden began to hear him finally start to speak up to me, all at the exact same time as well, as I then began to listen as to just what it was that he even had to say to me in the very first place any ways.
"This shit is rough man... I don't know about you, but I really am regretting joining the army... I should have known just how hard it was going to be..." He said to me, as well as Eldon, as I saw Eldon nod to him in a bit of a look of some agreement at the exact same time as well. I dipped my head a bit low to the ground, as I was feeling just the opposite as he was, if I was not going to lie to my self. I felt like I was getting in to the best shape that I had ever been in my life none the less, as well as the fact that I was happy to have a bit of an escape from the real world. Sure, I was a bit worn out, just as it seemed like the both of them were, but that was more due to the fact that it was hard for me to not get nearly as much sleep as I was used to getting.
I knew that it was probably harder for the both of them though, due to the fact that they were humans, and like it or not, as I was sure they were even willing to admit it, much unlike a lot of the other people in this camp would be, that I was stronger than them, just due to the fact that I was an orc. Now, the only thing that really wore me out a bit, was just the fact that we some times, often had to go on runs around the camp, as the did in fact kind of put a bit of some drain on me. So I suppose that I could under stand just where it was that he was coming from, but it still did not mean that I had any sort of regrets as to the fact that I had decided to join the army in the very first place any ways, in the end.
I blinked a few times, as I looked over at Rufus for some odd reason or another at the exact same time as well, as I could tell that he was listening in to a bit of the conversation that was going on right now. I blinked my eyes a few times, and I squinted my eyes at him at the exact same time as well, to kind of scare him off a little bit, which I did a fairly good job of doing none the less, at the exact same time as well, as I saw him all of the sudden turn his head away from us, and he looked down at the ground. I kind of felt a little bit bad for him, as it seemed to be a little bit clear to me that he simply just wanted to make friends with us, but I really was not having any of that, if I was not going to lie to my self.
It was just a little bit hard for me to forgive him for the fact that he had judged me, just based off of the fact that I was an orc. I rolled my eyes a bit, all at the exact same time as well, not giving any sort of care in the world if he had seen me from the corner of my eye, as I got my focus back on just what it was that was even going on right now in the very first place any ways, as I then took the last bite of my chicken, before any one else could come any sort of close to the fact that they were done with their meal. I moved the plate back a bit, as I saw one of the near by ladies go over to grab the plate and take it back to the kitchen, as it was the same lady every time who did as such, as she knew I was always the one that was going to finish my meal before every one else.
I was not all too worried about any of that at all right now how ever, as I then got my focus off of that at the exact same time as well, as I then began to start to look at every one that was even around me at this very moment in time, at the exact same time as well, as I saw that they too were not even near done with their plate. I rolled my eyes a bit towards them, though I knew for a fact that they had not noticed it at all, just due to the fact that they had their eyes on their food, because they were hungry, or they too were talking to their own friends at this very moment in time as well. I blinked my eyes a few times, once again, as I shook off all of those thoughts from my head, all at the exact same time as well.
I sighed just a bit to my self, as I was quite a bit glad that no one was looking at me any longer, if I was not going to lie to my self too, as I then turned my head over to my friends, now that I knew that no one was making any sort of evil plans as to just what it was that they were going to do to me now. I saw that the both of them were still biting in to their food, as it was clear that what ever it was that Ashton had just said to us, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that he had even said in the very first place any ways, if I was not going to lie to my self, due to the fact that I did not have the best of memory, was simply the only thing that Ashton had to say to us at the exact same time as well.
I shook off all of those thoughts all at the exact same time as well, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that was going on right now, nor what it was that I should do, or what it was that I should say right at this very moment in time, as a bit of a response to just what it was that Ashton had said in the very first place any ways. I felt like it might just be better for me to move on to a completely different subject if I was going to be serious with my self, as I then nodded a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I then began to think on just what it was that I was about to say to them, as I then lifted my head back up, and I opened my mouth all at once, as I was in fact ready to speak to the both of them.
Just before I did in fact begin to speak to them how ever, I heard the voice of some one else, from not all too far away, as they interrupted me before I had the chance to talk at the exact same time too. I was a bit upset, as well as the fact that I was disappointed in it, as it felt like I never got the chance to say any thing at all now a days. I did my best to try to shake off all of those thoughts how ever, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that I had better thing to be worried about right at this very moment in time any ways, which was the fact that some one had in fact decided to speak up to every one that was at the table, not all too far away from me in the very first place as well.
I blinked my eyes a few times, as I then all of the sudden turned my head over to where it was that the voice was coming from at the middle of the lunch table, as I was quite a bit lost as to just what it was that was going on. As I looked over to where it was that I heard the speaking come from, I then all of the sudden realized that it was Callan. I then felt a little. It guilty as to the fact that I had been upset in the very first place any ways, as I knew that Callan was not like the rest of the people that were in the legion, a lot of that having to do with the fact that he was the deputy of all of this, but also the fact that he treated me like a normal person how ever, which made me feel a lot better as well.
I shook off all of those thoughts how ever, all at the exact same time as well though, as I knew that it was kind of besides the point though, as I knew that I should have my focus on just what it was that he even had to say in the very first place any ways. I looked at him with a bit of a blank look on my face, which did not seem to matter all too much any ways, due to the fact that he did not have his eyes on me, as he had his eyes on the middle of the table right now. I was just a bit lost by all of it still, but I did in fact let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self all at once, as Callan then began to continue to speak, now that he knew that he had the attention of every one on him, as I did in fact listen as to just what it was that he had to say all at once.
"We are going to go in to our first battle a few days from now..." He said to every one, as he looked at every one quite a bit slowly, all at the exact same time as well, as I saw that he too held a bit of a blank look on his face, as to just what it was that he had even said in the very first place any ways. I was quite a bit shocked as to just what it was that he had even said in the very first place any ways, and as to the fact that he could have a blank look on his face right now, just due to the fact that he did not seem to have all too much hope in this legion in the very first place any ways, as it seemed like he repeated these same words every day to every one, when he watched us train, and fail miserably as to the fact that we could not shoot a bow at all. 'you are all miserable wretches! A toddler could shoot better than you... You are all useless, I feel helpless around you!' I did not even try to shoot one, as I had already came to find out that when I did, it simply just broke the bow. I shook off all of those thoughts all at the exact time too how ever, as I knew that it was besides the point right now any ways, as I got my focus back on to the present, where I could hear the shocked voices from a lot of the people in the legion, as to the fact that we were already about to go in to our first battle. I looked at the big smile on the face of Callan, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that was going on with him right now, nor what it was that he was thinking at all either. We had simply been training for just a couple weeks. Hardly any one knew had to use a sword, shield, or a bow at this point. Surely he knew that if we went in to a battle with an orc army, or another legion from another kingdom, than it meant that it would lead to the deaths of all of us right? I had my head tilted quite a bit, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that he was even thinking at all, if I was not going to lie to my self as well, never the less. I blinked my eyes a few times too, as I was also a bit lost as to why he had such a big smile on his face, when he could see all of the scared looks on the faces of all of the people that were in the legion right now. I was a bit confused by it, as I was starting to think that he might be bluffing right now, never the less. I squinted my eyes at him, though I knew that he could not see me do as such a thing, as I then all of the sudden heard him continue to speak, all at the exact same time as well never the less. "Calm down... Calm down... We are just going to go and raid a small orc village... We won't even be in the battle at all, well besides to shoot arrows I suppose... We just are going to watch 2 of our other legions on this city attack them..."
I was quite a bit lost, as well as the fact that I was even more shocked by what it was that he had even said in the very first place any ways. I also, if I was not going to lie, was a little bit scared by it at the exact same time as well, though my reasoning was a little bit different than the reason as to just why it was that every one else might be scared as to the fact that they had to go and fight an orc village. My reason was simply just due to the fact that they were going to be the first orcs I would ever see, and I was going to have to go and watch each and every single one of them get killed directly in front of my eyes, all at the exact same time as well, which did in fact make me feel quite a bit sickened if I was not going to lie to my self, never the less.
As I was a little bit lost in my mind as to those thoughts, it seemed like I had some how failed to notice the fact that every one at the table had all of the sudden turned their heads, and their eyes over to me all at once, as they all were staring at me, never the less, as it was clear that they were waiting to see as to just what it was that I even had to say in the very first place any ways, never the less. I dipped my head a little bit low to the ground, as I heard a lot of voices right at this very moment in time none the less, and it made me quite a bit uncomfortable, due to the fact that I did not like all of the attention that I was getting right now, as I kind of just wanted to be left alone.
I sighed just a bit to my self, as I stared down at the table, as the voices seemed to die down a bit, but as I could see from the corner of my eyes, that there were a bunch of people still staring at me right now, and that was for good reason too, as I was a bit trapped, as well as a bit lost in my mind on the fact that Callan had said that we were going to go and raid an orc village. That was after all, the reason that every one was staring at me right now, because like it or not, as there was no denying it at this point, I was an orc. I gulped a bit of some spit down my throat, as I did my best to try to shake off all of those thoughts from my head, all at the exact same time as well, as I tried to tell my self that I was different from the rest of the orcs.
Maybe I was not though, as I knew that I got angry just as fast as a normal orc did, as well as the fact that I had a lot of dark thoughts come in to my head. I never listened, nor did I ever do any of those thoughts that came in to my head, but it still did not mean that they did not go in there. I sighed just a bit to my self, as I shook my head, all at once, as I got my focus off of all of those thoughts that my head had even been on in the very first place any ways, as I knew that there were more important things that I needed to be worried about right at this very moment in time. That was, the fact that I knew that we were about to go to an orc village and attack them. It was not just the fact that we were going to be fighting them, which I knew we really were not going to go and do as such a thing.
It was more just the fact that I was about to see a bunch of my whole species just get slaughtered in front of my own eyes. Maybe it would wake me up how ever, as I wanted to tell my self that they were innocent for some odd reason or another, but at the exact same time as well, I knew that it was simply not the case at all how ever, as I let out quite a bit of a rough sigh to my self, all at once, none the less, as I finally began to notice that people were no longer looking at me any more. Well, that was besides Ashton and Eldon, who I saw had looks on their faces as if I was an idiot, or perhaps I was a coward. I was not all too sure as to just what it was that was going on with them right now, if I was not going to lie to my self, as I looked over at the both of them, and I tilted my heads at them, all at the exact same time as well.
Just as I did as such a thing, I saw the both of them look away from me, and they began to bite back in to their food, as if they were trying to pretend that they were not doing just what it was that they had been doing a few moments ago. I breathed in just a bit, all at the exact same time as well, as I did my best to get my focus off of those thoughts as well, at the exact same time too, which luckily, did not take me all too long to do as such a thing, due to the fact that I heard the voice of the leader of the legion, which was Tanner, as he too went up to the table, and he decided that he was ready to speak to us all. It was rare that he spoke to us, as he usually left all of the speaking to Callan never the less. When he did speak how ever, it was usually some thing that had to be very important.
I looked away from the both of my friends who were simply eating the food that was on their plate right now, as I turned my head over to Tanner instead, as I had a bit of a blank look on my face, as I did in fact do as such a thing, all at the exact same time as well, never the less, as I sighed just a bit to my self at the exact same time too, as I did my best to try not to get all too worried about my friends right now, as I knew that I had to have my focus on Tanner instead, as he was the one that was talking to every one that was at the table at this very moment in time any ways, after all. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I then nodded to my self at the exact same time as well, as I then began to listen as to just what it was that he even had to say in the very first place any ways.
"Once every one is finished, I want you all too get some good rest for the night, and when we get up in the morning, we need to fix up our tents, and all of our supplies in them, and then get ready to head off, it will be about a few weeks til we get to the place that we are meeting up with the other legions at." He said to us, as I had a bit of a blank look on my face still, after just what it was that he had even said in the very first place any ways. At first, I was a little bit worried that every one that was in the legion, that was at this very big table right now, was all of the sudden going to all turn their heads over to me, such as they had done before, but clearly that was not the case at all this time how ever, as I knew that it had nothing to do with me at all.
I shook my head, as I got my focus off of all of those thoughts, all at once, as I then got my focus on the thoughts that were completely some thing different, which also had some thing to do with just what it was that Tanner had even said to us in the very first place any ways, which was of course the fact that he had told us that we needed to head back to our tents, and get some good sleep for the night. I had to take that quite a bit seriously as well, as I knew that I had not got the best of sleep as of late, as a lot of that had to do with the fact that I rolled around in the quite uncomfortable bed that I was not at all used to for one thing, but also, at the exact same time as well, a lot of it had to do with the fact that I had a lot on my mind before I managed to finally fall asleep very late in to the night, as well as the fact that we had to get up very early in the morning every single morning as well, too.
I gulped just a bit to my self, once again, as I knew that it meant that we were likely going to be getting up even earlier in the morning tomorrow, potentially just around the crack of dawn, so I knew that there was nothing to mess around with at all at this very moment in time never the less, as I then all of the sudden nodded to my self all at once, as I got up from the table, whilst every one was still eating their food at the exact same time as well. I sighed just a bit to my self, as I usually did not like getting up from the table first, due to the fact that it got a lot of attention on me, but this time I felt like I did not have much of any other choice how ever, due to the fact that I knew that I had to get back to the tent and get some sleep.
Normally I liked to stay at the table, due to the fact that I knew that every one just liked to look at me when I got up from the table first, but that was not the case at all this time how ever, as I knew that if I stayed at the table, and I talked to my friends, who I was sure were for certain going to be talking a lot, due to the fact that they had just heard the exact same news that I had heard, as to the fact that we were going to go and join a few other legions in attacking an orc village. I sighed just a bit to my self all at once, as I did not even look at all of the people who I knew were destined to be staring at me right now, as to the fact that I once again was the first one that was done with my meal, and also the fact that I was a giant orc that was getting up from the table.
I blinked my eyes a few times, as I shook my head all at once, at the exact same time too, as I looked over to just where it was that my tent was at right at this very moment in time any ways, as it was starting to hit me, just as to how tired I even was right now, in the very first place any ways, as I knew that I was sagging off whilst I was headed over to my tent none the less. I did not care all too much how ever, if I was not going to lie to my self. I just wanted to get in to the tent, and I wanted to fall fast asleep, as I hoped that I did not get my self trapped in my thoughts, just as I had been over the last few days, and the last few nights that I had been trying to get my self in a good sleeping habit at the exact same time too.
I looked at the tent that was right in front of me, right at this very moment in time, as I then began to open the flap of the door that led in to the tent, I heard a bit of some noise begin to move around a little bit, as I freaked out just a little, as I was about to pull my dagger from out of my hand, as I was ready to fight back against who ever it was that had managed to sneak in to the tent that I slept in with my friends. If there was some one that had snuck in around lunch time, I knew that they had done it with the intent in killing me, as that was what I had been worried about a lot, just simply due to the fact that I knew that no one in this legion liked me at all, as that was due to the fact that I was an orc once again.
As I opened the front door to the tent, I then began to look around, all at the exact same time too, as I noticed that there was no one at all that was in the tent, and there were no weird markings either, nor were there any big spots where some one might be hiding under. I sighed just a bit to my self, as I felt like I was being a little bit over the top, but that was for a good reason of course, none the less, as I was still quite a bit worried about all of this, all at the exact same time as well. I shook my head how ever, as I knew that it was a very bad way to be acting right now, as I knew that I simply just wanted to fall asleep in just a few moments, which seemed like it would not be the case at all, due to the fact that I knew that I was starting to get my self locked up in the thoughts of fear.
I sighed all at once, as I then shook my head to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I then began to head over to my bedding spot, that was on the far side of the tent, away from where every one else was, as after a little bit longer, as I got all of my stuff ready to head to sleep, I then finally nodded to my self this time, as I stared down at my bed for a little bit longer. I knew that it was a very uncomfortable bed for me to sleep in, but I felt like tonight, it was going to feel very comfortable to me, just due to the fact that I knew that I was worn out, and I just wanted to get some sleep, no matter what the case was, or how it was that I was even able to sleep in the very first place any ways.
As I had those thoughts in my head, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that they were certainly better than the fact that I would have a bit of some worried thoughts in my head, such as I had every night that I tried to fall asleep, I then began to sit down in my bed, as I looked up at the top of my tent that I was trying to fall asleep in at the exact same time as well. It seemed like my brain and my mind was trying to get in to the fearful thoughts that I always managed to get my self on just about every night, but my body was just too worn out physically, right at this very moment in time, to even think on all of that right now. It was lucky for me to have that be the case to night, as I had a bit of a smile on my face, as I then all of the sudden closed my eyes at the exact same time as well. After I did in fact do as such a thing, it did not take all too long for me to fall asleep.

I woke up, to see that it was quite a bit bright out side right now, all at the exact same time as well, as I saw that I was still in the tent. I was quite a bit worn out still, and I wanted to just close my eyes and fall asleep, but that was how it was every morning for me. I was just a little bit lost how ever, all at the exact same time as well, as to why it was that it was so bright in here at the very moment in time any ways, if it was in fact early in the morning. Even on a normal day, it was not supposed to be this bright at all, and my mind was a bit lost on the thoughts as to the fact that I knew that it was not supposed to be a normal morning either, as I knew that we were supposed to be waking up even earlier than we did on a normal morning.
This did not seem like it was the morning at all right now how ever, which did in fact have me quite a bit confused, all at the exact same time as well, as to just what it was that was even going on right now, in the very first place any ways, as I slowly began to lift my self up, only to see that no one was in the tent with me at all. At first, I had got a little bit worried that every one had gone off in the army with out me, but I realized that was not the case at all how ever, not all too much longer after having those thoughts, luckily enough, as I saw that every ones bed was still made right beside me. It seemed like every one had in fact woken up already, and perhaps Tanner and Callan had changed thier mind as to the fact that we were going to go and attack an orc village.
I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I was quite a bit relieved if that was in fact the case, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that I really did not want to go and attack an orc village as my very first attack whilst I was in the army. It was not only just the fact that I did not want that to be my first attack, but at the exact same time as well, I kind of felt like I was not prepared for it at all, not just mentally, but also physically at the exact same time too, as I gulped as to the thought that we might have to go and fight a bunch of orcs in a raid on an orc village. At the exact same time too, I kind of felt like I should not be all too worried about that at all how ever, just due to the fact I remembered all of the sudden, as it was slowly coming back to me all at once, that Callan had said after all, that we were not going to be the ones that were attacking at all, luckily enough for our selves, all at the exact same time too.
I sighed, as I was glad for that at the exact same time as well, even though I knew that I was going to see a lot of blood and gore, as well as the fact that I knew that I was going to have to see a bunch of not only orcs be killed, but I was sure that I was going to see a few humans get killed at the exact same time too. I shivered a bit, as to even having those thoughts go in to my head, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that was not what it was that I should have my mind on at all, at this very moment in time. I was not sure as to just why it was, or how it was that I had even woken up in the very first place, still in the evening, before any one had come back from the tent, just due to the fact that I knew that I was in fact quite a bit worn out at this very moment in time too, none the less.
I nodded just a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, just due to the fact that I felt like I just wanted to go back to sleep. I began to close my eyes, all at the exact same time as well, until I then all of the sudden heard voices come from out side of the tent. I gulped once again, not all too sure what to do at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden lifted my self up, quite a bit worried that they were now coming after me all of the sudden, all at the exact same time as well. I blinked my eyes just a few times, as I looked over to the front of the tent, as I then all of the sudden heard the voices draw a bit closer to it, all at the exact same time as well, as I began to listen as to just what it was that they were saying, as I then all of the sudden saw the flab to the tent open, all at the exact same time as well.
I blinked my eyes a few times, as I felt like a little bit of an idiot all at once, as I then began to realize that it was simply just Ashton and Eldon who were the ones that were coming in to the tent right now, as I heard Eldon was the one that was talking to Ashton, right at this very moment in time any ways. I let out a bit of a relieved sigh, all at the exact same time as well, as I laid my head back in the bed, all at once, not all too sure as to just why it was that I had even been so worried in the very first place any ways. I still gulped just a bit to my self, all at once, as I looked up at the ceiling of the tent, pretending not to be paying any sort of attention to the both of them at all right now, even though I knew good and well that I was paying attention to them, as I then all of the sudden, began to listen as to just what it was that Eldon had to say over to my friend, Ashton, all at the exact same time too.
"Damn man... I am so worn out right now dude, I wish that I could just have a drink..."
