"Newt?, Newt can you hear me? Newt answer me", I suddently woke up gasping rapidly, I started breathing heavily, who was that voice calling me? Was that Thomas? That was so weird, I can't explain what just happened. I calm down slowly my breathing and see the other half of the blue print beside my bed. The person walking inside my room might have been Frank, I am sure of that. I stand up slowly and go towards a wooden table that stands inside my shelter. I place the two half together. Perfect it fits. The blueprint explained in detail how to create a ship but the problem is I am no engineer.

I left the blueprint on my table and exit the tent, a slight wind blows through my hair. The sun is very bright and almost blinded me as I exit the tent. I see some young people play outside, they are chasing eachother, I remember when I used to do that as a child, I slowly regained my memories but still can't remember who my parents were. They were also older adults who were sitting on tables having breakfast, others are somewhere doing something else I suppose, others are building something.

I walk up to the two older adults who were eating. "Goodmorning, uhm did anyone see Frank?", I ask. "Frank is busy at the moment, why don't you relax and eat breakfast, it's the most important meal of the day", one of them smiled tapping my back. I agreed and sat down. One of the adults gave me some cut up sausage and some goat cheese. I don't really enjoy goat cheese but I don't hate it. He also hands me some bread and water. "Thank you very much", I try to be very polite. "You are welcome, my friend", he answers. I started eating slowly not trying to rush it. "So, if you didn't know, I am Newt, it's a pleasure to meet you guys", I introduce myself trying to start up a conversation. The adult who handed me the food started talking. "I am Jon, I ususally help Frank's wife to cook the food", Jon introduced himself. The other adult then started introducing himself. "I am Eren, I work in a crystal and metal cave, mostly after breakfast", Eren introduces himself to me. "Actually", I started talking, after I swallowed my food. "I need help building a ship, I think this cave might get me recourses", I explain.

Eren looks at me and responds. "Do you have any blueprints?, he asks. "Yes, I actually do, I can show you the blueprint after breakfast", I respond. After the breakfast we go with Eren to my hut and I show him the blueprint. "Interesting, this is possible to make", he nodds looking at the blueprint.
"I see, you found friends Newt", Frank enters suddenly. "Yeah, I did, Frank", I respond. "You found the right man, he works in a metal and crystal cave, he might help you alot", Franks says. "I know, Eren told me", I make sure Frank knows I am well informed.

Frank thinks for a moment. "We have an abandoned ship, we could go find it and then use the recourses to repair it", Frank suggests. "That would help alot! Where is it!", I get excited. "Well, it would be a very big journey, this ship is protected by the dark brotherhood!", Frank says. "Is that some new group?", I ask. "Yes, these group worships their queen mother Celestia, and whoever tries to get near that ship, they will slit their throat, they are really violent", Frank explains. "Who is this Mother Celestia anyways?", I ask curiously. "It's said that every night at 6 pm at the sixth day of the sixth month, mother Celestia, an evil spirit will rise from the dead and hear to the dark brotherhood's pleading, some pleadings will come true people say, but I don't believe in that kind of nonsense", Frank explains.

I nodd in agreement. "We need to get well equipped and raid them, we need that ship!", I say looking at Frank. "Fine, I will give you an army of 100 men, Newt, you will be their leader, if they all die, it will be your fault, I am warning you", Frank looks at me. "I agree, I will protect your men with all my strength! I agree to lead them!", I shout like some soldier talking to his highest general. "Eren, get the good fighters and tell them to meet at Newt's hut and by the way give the new General some gold equipment", Frank orders Eren with his calm voice.

I can't believe I became a General, I am feeling really nervous, why am I a general? I don't even know this place, I really hope I get a lieutenant general, showing me the way! Right to my excitement, a man comes towards me. "General Newt, I am Lieutenant General Grant! I will lead you towards the dark brotherhood, it's my pleasure to work for you!", Grant exclaims himself in a professional military speech doing the hand towards his forhead sign. "It's my pleasure to work with you Lieutenant General Grant", I respond hoping I doing it right. I repeat his hand sign too.

He turns around and shows me 100 of young men, standing there with assault rifles, pistoles and meelee weapons. They seems really well equipped, Grant hands me an ACR assault rifle, I can't tell what model that is but I haven't seen this gun in maybe 30 years now! He hands me also an desert eagle and a nice machete. "Thank you", I simply say putting the pistole in one of my pistole holders and the machete in it's slot. I hold onto the gun tight. He also hands me some magazine for the weapons. Perfect, now I feel very heavy, dang it.

"Lieutenant General Grant, may I test this weapon before we leave?", I ask. "Of course General Newt, follow me", Lieutenant General Grant shows me the way to a shooting range. "Thank you", I reply. Alright Newt, you operated the stun shotguns and the pistol at WCKED, you can surely operate this ACR assault rifle. I look through the aim mark the gun has and start to shoot. This gun is doing it's job very well, my eyes are also working, good I am very glad the Crank injection didn't completely blind me! I quickly testef the pistol and was happy about it's work too. Good everything works, let's get going now.

I return to Grant. "Everything works fine, we can move, show me the way Lieutenant General Grant!", I order him. "Yes Sir!", he shouts. "All board the cars! We are moving!", Grant yells at the soldiers. We board the cars that they prepared for us and started to drive towards the Dark Brotherhood's hide out, what Frank didn't notice it was the sixth day of the sixth month today...
