Cross Heart

Chapter 2

I woke up, and began coughing. Thick, black smoke filled the sky, along with the glowing colours of fire. There was screaming and yelling, and explosives soaring through the sky. War. War has broke out between Clavia and Zaborbaclokin. I'm horrified. Was it my fault? I raced back to the village, panicking. It was hard to breathe, and I could barely see. I only knew where the village was because of the light from the fire. I finally arrived there, shaking with fear. Someone was stood up, staring at the spaceships attacking our planet. All quarters of Clavia have joined together to defend our planet. "W-what happened?!" They turned and looked at me. "After you ran away, the king was little upset. Someone from Zaborbaclokin flew down in a small ship and wanted the furries from their planet to come and celebrate together day with us. The king refused, and they started getting mad at the king. Eventually they left, and this happened. Pretty dumb in my opinion." They grumbled. "Oh." I ran over to a dagger that was on the ground, and picked it up. Bombs flew down and struck the ground near me. I tried to run away, but the bomb went off before I had the chance. I flopped onto the ground, coughing. "Dude are you okay?!" Someone said. "Uh... yea. I think." They grabbed my hand and helped me up. Another bomb struck the ground. "Go! Hurry!" They yelled. I ran into a building and slammed the door, as the bomb went off. I don't think I'll ever see them again. The building was half burned down, but I didn't care. I stood up and glanced around. I could hear whispering from behind me. I spun around, and saw someone standing there. I kicked them to the ground and threw the dagger at them. The dagger stopped. It was just floating there, in the air. I'm so confused. How is it floating..? The dagger flung back at me, striking my eye. I let out a small whimper and fell to the ground. They're gone. I lid there on the ground shaking. Someone ran into the building. It was the same guy that helped me up after the bomb struck. They looked at me, like they were wondering what happened this time. They held out their hand, and helped me up again. "Uh... my name is Scar, but that isn't important right now. Come on!" He said. He dragged me out of the burning building and brought me to the spaceships.  "Get in." He said firmly. I hopped in, while he followed behind me. "Why are we in here?" I was really confused. "We're leaving this place. We can't stay here any longer." He mumbled. "Do you know how to drive this..?" He stared at me. "No, but that doesn't matter now does it?" He chuckled. "Uhm... guess I'm driving." I hopped into the pilot seat. he sat next to me, as I turned on the engine. The plane began to shake a bit which startled me. I clicked a button, and the spaceship launched into space. I was finally off that miserable planet.
