Help Them

Chapter 9

Chapter 9

Well, here we are still going west, and making sure that the French weren't following us.

"So did you guys here what the french's big plan to stop the war is?" Jason asks."no, but can you tell us?" I say.

"So, their taking girls and women in these huge trucks. They take them to a place it's sorts like a prison, or that's what my sister said. She was taken but they let her free because their wasn't enough room. If we ever see a road were not going near it because they could take all three of you!" He says. Bree, Maddison, and I stare at him wide eyed like he's crazy or something. "Really?" We say. "Yeah, but you guys won't get taken with me around" he says. He flexes his arms, so we can see that he'll fight them off.

We all laugh at that. We keep on walking until we reach a road. Jason looks side to side and across. "Okay, we're good, no trucks." He says. We all run to the other side. I stop in the middle of the road, I see a truck coming to a stop by me.

I just stare at it like I can't move. A guy with a gun steps out. "Run!!" Jason yells. I still don't move an inch. I'm so scared that he'll shoot me.

Jason runs out into the street and pulls me into his strong arms. He runs to the other side but he's to slow. The gun goes off and it goes through my shoulder blade.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh" I scream as the bullet makes a stop in my right shoulder blade. I scream. "Shh, hold your breath we can't let the soldier find you." Jason whispers. I nod my head but tears are still flowing down my cheek.

It hurt so bad, I don't know how I'll get the bullet out. Jason puts me down in the grass. "Bree and Maddison got away so that's good, but we got split up in the process." He says sadly.

Oh, God it hurts, it hurts! Make it stop! I wasn't even listening, because my shoulder was throbbing with pain.

"Let me take a look." He says and I let him because I don't feel like fighting him off. He takes my jacket off and looks at it it's covered in blood, obviously I can't use that agin so he hangs it over a tree to dry. He then comes back over to me and lays my head on his chest so I don't have to sit up. I have a long sleeve shirt on, so he rip my right sleeve off. "Ahhhhh" I scream and clench my teeth together as the cloth rubs the hole in my shoulder.

"It's okay. It'll be alright." He says. I give him a weak smile. He goes back to concentrating on me. He then pulls out a knife from his pocket. "Close your eyes and bite down on this he shows me a rubber ball. I nod my head. This is going to hurt. Oh Good God have mercy pease!

I bite down on the rubber ball and close my eyes. He digs the knife into my shoulder blade and I spit the ball out of my teeth. I open my eyes and let out an ear splitting scream. He takes the knife out and on the knife is a single silver bullet. He cleans the bullet off and put it in his pocket.

He then rips his shirt off and wraps it around my neck then ties it at my shoulder so I can have so port from my neck. "I still feel pain but not as much. Thank you..."I choke out." I get up and start moving.

"Oh no you don't. You need rest I'll take watch." He says. "Fine." I say. I rest my head on his chest and fall asleep from exhaustion the second time this day.

Jason's pov.

I look at her shoulder and poor water onto it, while she's asleep. She winces but falls back into a deep sleep. I can't believe that I let this happen, we don't know where Maddison and Bree are, and she has been shot. God, how come I'm so stupid. I look back down at her and put my jacket around her so she's not cold.

I then (as always) wrap my arm around her tiny waist protect-fully. That French solider better watch out because if I ever find him I'll shoot him in the arm, leg, and head.

I love this girl and always will, so if anyone takes her away from me I will be mad. You haven't seen the dark side of me, so watch out. A cold wind blows by so I pull her close to me as she shivers. She stops when I do this.
