Chapter 22: Sword Fight

Chris

"Yes, come by here. We're here but we still haven't made contact with them yet. I just need you to pack up anything useful: medicines, food, water, any weapons that can be used. But don't bring em' all. Just don't." I said as watch the refuge from afar. My mask is capable of long sight seeing.

As I was saying earlier, we still haven't made contact with them yet. I'm just worried to might what happen to us if we make.

Anyways, me and Karin are holed up in a huge, dark tree with its large branches rising. Karin's under the tree, while me, climbed up the huge tree, watched the refuge. I got a good vantage point here. I can see them all, doing their things. Theres blacksmiths, market stalls, and such. I guess this is not pretty bad.

A moment of minutes later, I percieve a car. A car from the mansion. It must be them.

"Karin!" I yelled-whisper at her. "There they are!"

Karin was leaning back on the tree, with her arms crossed. She looked at her back and saw the car.

Me, who was hyped to see Empress again after a few days. Well, for me, it felt like forever. So I jumped down the tree, once I hit the ground, I rolled to muzzle the recoil of gravity. I stood up, ran towards the car as it pulled up on the road, and once Empress got out, I hugged her tightly, expressing myself of missing her so badly.

"Empress! Ohh I missed you so much!" I said as I hugged her tighter.

"Chris! Mmmh! I've missed your hug! And also this..."

Empress kissed me. Well, I gradually kissed her back.

"Hey you two, knock it off. The refugee, remember?" Shauna said. We gave her a "WTF" look. "Just kidding! You guys can do that everytime" she added. Well, she's partially true, so, we stopped and look at everybody.

"So, what approach should we do? Friendly or aggresive?" I offered them 2 choices.

"I'll go with friendly." Eric voted.

"Friendly." Saira added.

"Friendly here." Kaylyn added too.

"Friendly. Definitely friendly." Shauna voted.

"Well, I'll go with them. Friendly." Carla suggested.

"Same here." Karin added.

"Here too." Empress added.

"Owkay, so I'm the only one who voted for the aggresive approach." I said with disappointment. "Well, majority wins. Friendly approach. Well, let's not wait any longer. Let's go."

We all walked with our foot, all in prepared stance, for all the dangers we encounter.

"Okay, once we're there, let me do the talking. Is that clear, everyone?" I asked them as I continued walking forward, with my sword in my right hand, retracted to its sheath, and ready to come out when danger strikes.

"Okay." They replied.

As we continue to walk towards the refuge, the members or inhabitants of it percieves us. They looked curious.

One of the members of the refuge came out of a tower-like building, Looks like a watchtower, and pointed a gun at us.

"State your business!" He yelled at us. I gave him the death stare.

I just stared at her. Yes, she's a girl, yet, she's badass as fvck! She has a dyed red hair color, with two short curved swords, and a gun in her hands pointing at me. She's staring at me fiercely. I stared back with my signature death stare.
