Dark Treason

Chapter One, The Plan

TEN YEARS LATER

The cool smooth metal felt comfortable in my hand as I gripped the handle of my dagger. I lunged at Lucas who lifted up his shield as soon as I went to stab him in the chest. The dagger hit the metal of the shield making me fall backwards. Lucas took his first chance and jumped on top of me, pining my arms down at my sides with his legs, he reared his arm back while making his hand into a fist. I quickly turned my head and bit into his thigh as hard as I could feeling my teeth sink into his skin. Lucas let out what sounded like a bark and hit his fist into my cheek. My vision blurred for a second but I wouldn't give up. Pressing my teeth even harder into his flesh I began to taste warm copper spread across my tongue.I felt his hold on me loosen and flipped over on top of him. Taken by surprise I had enough time to wrap my fingers around his neck, I began to use all my strength and squeeze.

"You bitch!", Lucas gasped out.

Smiling I felt him squirm from beneath me, and all of the sudden he began to tremble as his breath escaped through his mouth.

Unexpectedly I felt pity for my brother but I knew all of those who betrayed my father would result in death.

No mercy!, I could hear my fathers voice shout in my head.

I couldn't stand to see some one who had been raised beside me all my life be tortured. Shaking my head I kept one hand grasped on Lucas's throat and the other reached towards the dagger I dropped on the ground. Once my fingers felt the dagger i picked it up and pierced it straight through his chest.

I loosened my fingers around his throat and saw his chest heave up and down ever so slowly. He kept hold of my gaze I saw hatred, betrayal, sorrow... And almost what it looked like to be, pity? Before I could think any more about the way he stared at me, his body went still and his eyes were suddenly lifeless. My fingers reached towards his face and I gently shut his eye lids closed.

Standing up off of Lucas I turned around to see Ty standing behind me. "How long have you been standing there?", I asked beginning to get angry at the thought that he might of been standing there the whole time. "Just now", he said to quickly blowing his cover and I knew immediately that he was lying. "Your father told me to come and find you and report that there will be a meeting in five minutes in the conference room", Ty quickly added.

Calming myself down I said, "Thank you. Now once I go to leave will you dump this body in the pit?".

"Yes ma'am".

Satisfied by his response I knew I could trust Ty to do what I ever asked him to do for me. The memory of me fighting him for the first time came back to me, that same week i had fought him we were assigned to be partners in our training development that year. Ever since then Ty had always been by my side as one of my loyal brothers.

Turning towards my left I started to walk off, anxious to see what the new meeting was about. We had a three story building made out of black marble with large columns decorating the entrance of it that was our main building. We addressed the building simply as, building 108. Building 108 was where the highest ranked officials were housed such as me and my father along with the most skilled training officers, a few selected guards, and others of course whos job was to only stay in a room all day and plan the attack towards the U.S. Government. While spare rooms in the building were where meetings and such were held, such as the conference room I was heading towards.

My great grandfather had established this group of warriors and spies in his young years and ever since then my father has taken his rightful place as leader. My father began to expand the group which then grew into an army and a community of government officials. Some of the government officials were presidents from different countries, mayors from cities all around the world, and even some senators who were in the U.S. themselves. Each one of these government officials started off with a conflict towards America, then grew into hate, and then there hate sought out our secret army. Each official was pleased with our plan of destroying the U.S. government and they made sure we had all the supplies, money, and weapons we needed. some even donated abandoned and orphaned children that no one wanted in there land and sent them to us to train, and swore they'd help us whenever we needed.
