Heroism and Harshness

Chapter Twenty Eight

All the people, tired of the evil rules of Trey were running to the castle but not Becky. She didn't give up but didn't get any farther. She was constantly pushed over by the running people, with weapons. Becky then made it a few more feet, without falling over and letting a few people stomp on her, thinking that she was a dead body because of the stampede or because of a guard who managed to kill her.

Becky then gasped. She saw someone who she completely forgotten. All this time, she had forgotten about him. Jeff, her younger brother. Jeff was carrying a pickaxe. But, when he saw Becky, he stopped what he was doing. They both stood there in shock, thinking what are the odds of them meeting again.

"I-I knew t-that you c-could d-do it," Jeff said in awe, lying. When Becky told him her dream many years ago, he laughed and didn't believe it. How will she escape the prisons? Where will she hide? What if she sees a guard. Jeff never told her about any of this because he thought that it would make her feel bad. Seeing her on TV was so surprising that his face turned white and almost fainted in the spot because of how shocking it was.

Then, after staring at each other for a while, they finally got into a conversation with each other. "Why are you running back?" Jeff asked his sister. "King Frost will get his guards to manhunt me!" Becky yelled because the war blared with yelling and things getting demolished.

"You should blend in," Jeff suggested. "The guards aren't focused on every one of us,". Becky then thought about that. She previously thought of that before. She had a feeling that she might've been caught if a guard see's her. But now it seemed like a good plan. No, the guards won't check anyone and besides, she started this whole war so she should fight in it. Maybe she will be a war hero and the war will be named after her. "Becky's war"

Becky then figured that it was her only option. No one was in the woods now, except for guards and of course Mark's dead body. If she runs into the woods, she would be caught by guards.

"Where's the weapons?" Becky asked Jeff. She covered her ears because of all the yelling but she could still hear Jeff. "If you continue, there's a truck filled with weapons." Jeff answered. Becky then waved bye to Jeff. Jeff disappeared with all the other warriors, ready to free Trey. "Good luck," He yelled as he ran with some other prisoners. Becky wondered when she will ever see him again.

She then continued to run past other people but this time, she wasn't going into the woods. Instead, she was going to that weapon truck and get a weapon there.

Finally, she saw the weapon truck after getting trampled again. She then looked inside the hollow truck as it didn't really have so much weapons anymore, due to all the warriors. it only had a pickaxe and a saw left, which was taken by some Hubians who entered the battlefield.

Becky then sighed as she wondered how she will fight in the war. mark's pocket knife will be better than nothing but it was small and could easily break. The weapons in the truck were much bigger and harder and could do more damage.

But then, a weapon came to her. A shining light blinded her eye for a second as Becky then spun around, blinking rapidly. when she saw the light again, Becky saw something long and metal on the ground. She then picked it up as she gasped in surprise! Now she could fight in the war! She had a rare find: A sword.

There weren't so many swords in the tools shed in the Hub. But, there were a few, stolen by some Hubians who wanted to get revenge on the guards for hurting them. And the sword, some of them carried instead of a gun.

Becky then waved her sword. It made a starling sound effect as she then felt like a knight. Of course she didn't know what that meant but she felt like a warrior! now, she was ready to fight!

Becky then ran along with some Hubians, also yelling like everyone did. She now was ready to help the innocent people of Trey fight King Frost! Now, she was ready! To fight and destroy the badness of Trey. And turning it into good.
