Chapter 14: Forest Near Columbus D.C. (Carter Edwards)

I woke up to rustling. I must have fallen asleep. I heard more rustling. I woke up Brad.

"What?" he asked.

Footsteps were approaching. I pulled out my knife. Brad did the same. A shadow approached. Out stepped a teenage boy. He was unarmed.

"Hi," he said.

"Sure," I replied.

"Luke, who are they?" the boy asked.

Luke replied, "They are people that need our help."

"Who are you?" the boy asked.

I replied,"I'm Carter Edwards III, and this is my friend Brad."

He replied,"I'm Michael Davis, and this is my brother Luke."

Luke asked, "So Carter, are you like an heir to the throne?"
