Worthless

Screwed

Minho and Jisung came running to the ship and I gave them both a confused look.
"We came across some grounders," said Minho almost out of breath.
"Where?"
"Near the river, they were heading south."
"They were following someone...seemed like they were trying to kill him" added Jisung, who seemed somewhere between terrified and extremely flustered. Poor boy what the hell had my brother done...But that wasn't the most important thing right now.

What was important was that Chan, Adeline, and Miller had gone to the river.

"Chan, Miller, and Adeline are at the river right now," I said and Minho widened his eyes.
"Fuck..."
"We should go and make sure they're ok," I said.
"Alright then, go grab the guns and get Marty."
"I'm coming too," said Jisung and my brother shoot him an annoyed look.
"Like hell you are! I don't want to have to take care of you too, taking care of Lix out there is hard enough" he said and Ji and I rolled our eyes at the same time.
"I'm capable of taking care of myself, thank you very much," I said and went to grab the guns. I could still hear them arguing but I ignored them.

When Marty and I went outside each holding our weapons Jisung looked only seconds away from punching Minho in the face.

"You don't get to boss me around," he told Minho, who ignored him and came to take the gun I was holding for him.
"Don't fucking ignore me!"
"I said stay. Don't get on my nerves, Han" said Minho loading the gun.
"Hey Ji, I'm by no means taking his side but it's better if you stay just in case something goes wrong," I said.
"Not you too" he groaned.
"Go inside Hannie this isn't a job for kids" teased Minho with a smirk.

Oh, he was annoying.

"I hope you get shot in the fucking head, you asshole," said Jisung and went inside clearly irritated. Minho just watched him leave with a smirk on his face.
"Trouble in paradise I see," said Marty, and Minho shoot him a death glare.

Apparently, I wasn't the only one who noticed the thing going on between these two.

"Shut up and walk, scum," spitted out Minho as he followed behind me as I made my way to the river.

We walked as quietly as we could and kept our guard up as we approached. And when we were about 2 minutes away we heard an agonizing scream, then another, and then radio silence. We all looked at each other terrified.
"Fuck hurry up," I said and we ran to the river.

As the view cleared up from the trees a disturbing image was displayed in front of us. About 10 or 15 grounders each armed to the teeth, and a lifeless and headless body in the middle.
The body presented various cuts and signs of torture. I felt my stomach twist. I looked around and noticed Chan, Adeline, and Miller were standing there held at sword point by one of the grounders.

"Fucking animals" cursed Marty loading his gun ready to take aim and shoot but I stopped him.
"Don't. They have our people, you idiot we have to be smart about this...if you don't wanna end up like the guy over there there" I said taking a glance at the body again, blood still coming out of it turning the grass from green to a vivid red color. I'm sure this sight will follow me in my nightmares for months.

"What the hell do we do? They look like they're gonna kill them" said Minho.
"Put your guns away and follow me." I put my gun on my belt and walked out of the cover that the tree provided for us.
"Shit he's insane," said Marty but did as I said and followed.

I walked slowly towards them and when they noticed us two bows were pointed at me. I rose my hands.

"We're here in peace," I said careful not to make any unnecessary moves.
"Let my people go we haven't done anything," I said and their attention was on me.
"Lix they don't understand...this is gonna end up being a blood bath" whispered Minho.
"If they attach then we fight," I said.
