[The Ones In Those Who Do Not Exist] Fourth Wing

chp 6

A villain is also a victim, whose story has not been told yet. If you told me that this man was a villain. I'd take my time getting to know if he is one.

Jake Melgren

Augustina POV

5 years later

Finally, the moment has arrived. We've been trained for this moment. Jake and I made our way to our fathers office while we heard voices from one of the rooms through the hallway. Guards were outside, we heard shouting, but we walked passed it, ignoring it. We made our way to the Generals office and there he was, facing the window. 

"Father." Jake called. "We're ready."

He looked down and walked towards us offering us a hug. We accepted it before Jake gave him a letter, that was sent from the King to Yunjin to deliver it to the General. 

"Father," I spoke in between the hug ," we'll survive, don't worry"

"Just make sure you two stick together, no matter what," he broke the hug pointing at us "no boyfriend or girlfriend after-"

"Graduation." Jake and I said in unison.

"And no-"

"slacking off" we interrubted him again.

"You kids," he reached out for a hug again "make sure to live"

"We will father." Jake promised.

"Jake? Tina?" he looks at us touching our faces "I have something for you both." 

He leads us to a door that looked like a closet door and opened it, revealing a room with two odd looking objects. 

"What are we looking at father?" I asked, looking at Jake.

"It's your weapons, I requested it being made from the blacksmith today," he puts folds his arms across his chest,"remember when you wanted those weapons to be made?"

I nodded.

"Well, I got them to make you a big one." He smiles. 

"Really?" I grabbed it and unwrapped the clothing that was wrapped arround it, it was heavy and big.

"The other one is yours" he patted Jake on the shoulders.

"For real?" Jake asked, grabbing the weapon to see what he got. 

My eyes widened on the weapon I was holding. It was made out of wood, it was a huge boomerang. I requested a blade shaped as a boomerang to the blacksmith lady who was making weapons near our place, but I only requested the ones that fit my bare hands, but seeing this baby, I was tempted.

"You didn't feel like she was pleased with her batman blades, and gave her a dildo instead?" Jake laughs.

"Dildo?" The General tilts his head in confusion.

"Shut up" I slapped him. "Thank you, father." I hugged him. 

"No way" I checked to see and Jake got two swords attached together, with his name on it. "I thought it was a lance, but a samurai sword." I hit his head with the boomerang I was holding. "Thanks, father." 

"What's a sam-"

"Speaking of which, I heard that you were being stationed in Samara?" I asked the General.

"Oh yes, definitely, your mother and I will be moving there." He explains.

"So, no one will be at home?" I bowed my head looking down.
