A couple of hours had passed, the three had set off once again but this time in order to find the fremen and find safety. They walked across the desert, it had become clear that Leto was in fact dead and there was no way of getting him back.
So that ultimately would cause Paul to be handed down the honour of being duke of Atreides. The only problem with that was that Paul may not want to be duke but then what would happen? Would Atreides fall? No one knew but the future.
There was also another problem, sand worms. Huge sand worms, that could kill anyone and eat practically anything in one go. So walking in the desert with no weapons (not like any could protect them) was not such a great idea.
But there was two options here, walk to the fremen with a high chance of getting eaten. Or stay in the tent and die of starvation. Both didn't sound too good, but the first one has more chance of survival so that would explain why they where in the desert.
"Do you know where they are?" Charm asked, Paul shook his head "no" he shrugged. "So we are following your sat-nav thing and we don't even know where we are" charm pointed out. "Just trust me we will get there" Paul spoke.

The sun settled and the sky began to turn a dark blue signalling that the night was arriving. The three still where walking and being in the desert at night didn't sound so pleasing.
They walked as quiet as possible, but not even that could keep the terror away. From the distance a huge wave of sand was tumbling forwards, "worm" charm spoke before they all began to run.
Charm and Jessica managed to make it too the rocks, they panted when they got there. Paul on the other hand was sprinting for his life away from the huge worm that was arising from its hell whole. He thankfully managed to make it, the worm paused and looked down at him before it scattered off back under the sandy surface.
Paul didn't seem to alarmed, he looked behind him and noticed that he recognised the rocks that they had reached. "We're here" he smiled. "That's all you have to say?!" Charm spoke in shock. He acted as if there wasn't just a worm hunting them down to kill.
-
An hour passed, they had found the fremen. The fremen weren't too sure about them though, "you will fight" spoke the leader, Paul had been set to fight another worrier to see if they where worthy. Charm was worried.
What if he lost.
Suddenly, without warning the fight began. Paul pulled out a sword and so did the other man and the blades began to crash together, as the fight went on there seemed to be no clear winner.
Charm closed her eyes, she didn't want to see it.
When she heard the noises coming to an end, she opened her eyes to see a man laying dead on the floor and Paul walking away. He had won. But he had killed. Charm didn't know how to feel. Paul never came across to be the kill type, Jessica seemed shocked too.
-
Another hour passed and now charm lay asleep in her new bed, she hadn't brought anything up to Paul yet and he didnt seem bothered about anything.
A strange noise outside was brought to her attention and wouldn't let her go back to sleep. As much as she tried all she could hear was that one noise. She was reluctant at first but decided to get up.
She creeped outside the door as Paul sat up.
What was she doing?
