We are training. I teach day how to shout out commands and teach him which commands are which. He has never ordered people around as he is usually always the lone one.

We're all stretching and i ask him if he's ready.

"In all honesty june in the battles before when me and you fought i was never ready at all. It's almost as a feeling that you know you will never get ready but you know it's gonna happen and you have to be at all times no matter what"

I knew what he meant by all that as i was never ready either. No one is ever ready for death might be waiting in the other side ready to take you up. I look up and see a big cloud of smoke forming. I know time is here. Time is now.

I get up and start yelling orders. They all get up as quickly as they can have their guns ready. Day starts looking around to see if he can spot any runners. He gets the gun by his side and i'm guessing he is debating whether or not to shoot. Day has never had any intention to really kill anyone. He never really wanted to. I still remember the day he thought he killed my brother he was devastated and knew he never did. I look and see him still not sure. I hear a shot and the runner is down. I look at day and he looks relieved and scared at the same time. I knew he did not want to shoot him in the first place.

"Where did you shoot him?"
"I shot him in the leg. He might not be able to run so your best chances on getting any information would be to catch him."

I nod in agreement. How did i not think of that. I set my mind back to my soldiers and see them hiding behind building ready to shoot. I pull day by his sleeve and put us behind a building. He draws his gun and i draw mine. We stand back to back to each other and wait. There is silence for a minute and then as if on cue yelling from my soldiers and the arctic soldiers.
They're coming. I look at day and nod my head. I know he does not want to shoot anybody but he has exception he will ensure his brother's safety no matter what. I shoot at the arctic soldiers. They're everywhere. They're up and down. I look at day and see he is do concentrated on shooting them. I take notice that of the three he has shot he only wounded them never did he kill them. Just as i continue i feel a pair of hands grab me from front and behind. There is a rag on my mouth which constricts me of yelling. I look at day's direction and see they also have him. I try to fight but all three of the men holding me have a tight grip on me. I try to get my soldiers attention and it's too late. I'm thrown in the back of a jeep where i am kicked and knocked unconscious. I seem to in and out of it as i hear voiced but then everything goes back. I wake up and notice that i'm in the jeep. I look around for day but he is nowhere to be seen. I try to get up but i am only pushed down by a foot.

"Getting up will only make it worse. I suggest you stay down."
I fight against it and try to get up only to have a boot be sent straight to my face. I fall back down and lay there darkness comes my way and i lie there.
