World war

Ch.4 prisoner of war

All I felt was anger, nothing else just anger. A traitor among the United States. He didn't have an accent or looks that indicated he was from another country. He was a full blown American; and a traitor. He was leading us deeper into the camp probably to a torture or interrogation center. To my surprise he lead us to a small tent and the guards pushed us in. We just stood there waiting until I said "who are these people." The pilot just looked at me and the soldier said "I don't know but they look middle eastern and Asian, most likely North Korea and terrorist from the region." I shook my head right around when the traitor walks in and says "enjoying your stay." We don't even answer. He looks at us and said "your wondering who we are aren't you." The soldier and pilot just look straight down and I did the same. We sat there for what seemed hours but was only a few minutes. The traitor walked out and spoke to the guards in a language I didn't understand. I heard foot steps and they walked in taking the pilot away. I only thought about what they were going to do to him. There would be no point in interrogating him because of the traitor so that only meant torture. After a few minutes the soldier looked at me and said "take this." He pulled something from what looked like a shoe pocket, a data chip from a computer. I asked what was it was and he said it is intel about the missile they used. I nodded and asked what was I supposed to do with it. He told me that these people would never suspect a kid or civilian to keep it. About that time we heard footsteps so we went back to our sitting positions. The guards threw in the pilot who looked very bloody and beaten up so I guessed they tried to interrogate him. Next they got the soldier and took him out of the tent. I felt fear spring up in me,what if they tortured me. I tried to clear that thought from my head. This time it took longer I was probably sitting there an hour because it was dark when he finally came back. He looked very bloody and beaten. When the traitor left I felt a little relieved that he wasn't going to torture me but was he waiting for morning. After awhile the soldier said "do you still have it," I nodded. He nodded back. He sat there staring at the entrance of the tent for a few seconds and then said "get some rest." I answered with ok. Before I did I asked them there names and if they were ok. The soldier said his name was jack, and the pilot said his name was Chris. I said my name was mason. I leaned back and tried to get comfortable but it was no use, I finally did though. I must have been OUT because I woke up in a small room. I looked around and saw the door in which it looked like it was barely even standing. The room looked like it was built with no care. It probably was because they arrived two days ago and got in Tennessee yesterday so, they were probably in a hurry. I said hello and after a few seconds the traitor walked in and said "good your awake." The only thought through my mind was I'm going to be tortured. I kept in mind what jack said deny I know. I looked and he held up something. He showed me picture of the computer chip and asked if I knew what it was. I thought if I should say no but it looks like like a normal computer chip. I said "I guess it's a computer chip." He nodded and then held up a pic of the horror missile and asked what it was. I said "the horror missile." He had a slight confused look and then I realized they probably call it something else. He said "If that's what you call it,yes." Now I thought he was going to torture me. He showed me the picture of both this time and asked, "have you ever seen this computer chip?" I thought for a minute to see if it had anything special about it that made it looked any different from others but it didn't. I said, "I don't know." Fear was building up inside me. He pointed to a small difference it instead of having some circuitry near the middle it was a button. It was small and hard to notice so I guess you put it on top of something and tapped the button. I shook my head no. He looked distressed like he didn't know weather to believe me or not. I guess he chose not to because he said, "If you do see it report it to me immediately and you will be granted freedom from here and not be a prisnor." I shook my head. He spoke in the other language and then the two guards from earlier took me by the back of my arms and practically carried me. When we left the building I noticed we weren't to far from the tent they kept us in. But they weren't taking me to the tent they were taking me to a small open area with a few other people, jack and Chris were with them. There was about three men and two women. The enemy soldiers pushed me into the area. Everyone gave me a concerned look like someone my age shouldn't be here. Jack and Chris came over and asked what happened and why I wasn't there when the enemy took them here. I explained what happened. They seemed a little relieved that I didn't give up the computer chip. I looked around and realized there was no place to Sleep or anything a average human being to live. Another reason I compare this place to a concentration camp. Why they even bothered to keep prisoners alluded me. I looked around the area where they kept us and it seemed we were near the edge of a small drop off down a hill. I could see smoke coming from farther down so I walked to edge of the fence and what I saw I will never forget. A town well not any more completely destroyed, fires everywhere, buildings destroyed. I felt sick. I just stood there as everything left my body. I felt a falling sensation, the sharp pain to my head then darkness.
