"Oliver! Get up, now." Harald violently shook me awake.
"Huh? Harald? What's going on?" I asked.
"Come on Oliver, they've found us." He grabbed me by my wrist and jerked me up.
"Who- What, how?!" I asked frantically.
"I don't know. I heard them screaming out my name."
"Are they obsessed with you?"
He chuckled a little but then stopped immediately. "It seems like it."
We rushed through the trees as they seemed to only get closer. Harald stopped behind a tree and held me close by his side. He grabbed my shoulders and kneeled down to look at me.
"Oliver, listen and listen carefully. I do not think that we can lose them. So, what I need you to do is run. Run as far as you can. Run until your legs give out. Am I clear?" He breathed heavily and looked me straight in the eyes.
"No, no, no. You can't be serious." I smiled, thinking that he was joking.
"I'm as serious as I ever am, Oliver. Run. Now." He stood up and walked out from behind the tree.
"Wait- What are you doing?!" I grabbed his arm and tried to pull him back.
"Go, Oliver." He said impatiently.
"But I'm not gonna leave you!" I tightened my grip on his sleeve.
"Oliver, please. I'll..." He stopped and thought. "I'll be back." He sighed.
I hesitated. I didn't want to go but he wanted me too. I knew that he wouldn't come back, so I decided to stay. I'll make Harald think I'm running away but I'll just hide behind another tree and follow behind him.
"I'm right here! Come and get me you bastards!" He yelled. I watched from behind a different tree.
"Do I need to say it again?! Viens me chercher, Cameron ! Est-ce ce que vous voulez?!" He stood out in the open. Suddenly, the bushes near him started to move a little. Harald turned to look at the bushed but then a dart with a red end came out and hit him in the neck. He stumbled a little bit but then ripped it out of himself.
"What the...?" He examined it.
Then a blond boy with a bunny mask popped out of the bushes, holding his gun in the air. "Dead!" He happily said.
"Cameron.." Harald lazily said. He looked as if he were about to fall asleep.
"Hey Harald, did you know that even if one of my men caught you, they wouldn't have hurt you in any way? I've been waiting to do that myself for as long as I can remember." He walked around the bushes and towards Harald.
Harald looked down in defeat. So even if we got caught, we could've made it out? No.. He has to be lying. Harald gave up for no reason?!
Cameron gave him a small push and he fell hard onto the ground. Harald attempted to sit up but then fell back down.
"I've been waiting to do this too..." He quickly looked over to me and shot me with the same dart that he shot Harald with.
How did he know that I was there?
I slowly pulled it out and fell over.
"How... did you know..?" I asked. The effects seemed to work better on me than Harald.
"I mean, it didn't take rocket science to figure that out. 'Once bitten, twice shy' they say."
He walked towards me and took my hand. "C'mon Oliver. Lie beside Harald. It will make things easier for my men."
