Army Girl

Prepar For Battle

I don't know what to think. They are going to attack us. They are coming for us. They are trying to get rid of us.

They could hurt everyone. They could hurt everyone I care about. Most importantly they could hurt Natalie or John.

I want to protect them, but yet I'm the one running on a dirt road trying to get to the training center, while John is trying to help me from tripping over my own feet.

I'm terrified. I'm just trying my best not to show it and let me just say, my best is not good enough.

We turned the corner and I finally saw the training center. I almost bursted out with tears. I was so happy to almost be there.

We ran over to the main doors and to our luck they were locked. Like come on seriously! So John suggested to take the back doors and I was to afraid to be by myself so I went with him.

We got to the back doors and they were locked to so John and I started to bang on the door and started to scream to let us in.

"Let us in!"

"Help, let us in please!"

We almost gave up when someone finally opened the door and to our surprise it was Arnold. How kind of him...took him long enough!

He gave us a nod and made a gesture to fallow him. We followed him down along hall I have never been in before. It's was pretty scary looking not going to lie, but I think John is trying to make me feel better because he grabbed my hand and gave me one of his famous smiles. I couldn't help but smile back. His smiles are just so contagious.

We got farther in the creepy hall and then next thing I know we stop in front of a huge door. Arnold did this weird knock thing.

One knock to the left.

One knock to the right.

Two knocks in the middle.

I was looking at him like he's crazy. I looked up at John with my 'what the heck face' and I guess he understood what I was thinking.

"It's a code knock."

"Oh."

Then the door open to revel General Larenzo. He welcomed us in the huge room that looked kinda like a jail cell but it didn't have those weird door looking gates on them and there was a whole wall with weapons. Guns, knives, arrows, grenades, everything.

Those grenades scare me. I deafentaly now to stay away from them.

I see everyone on camp there, my eyes land on a worried looking Natalie. She looks scared out of her mind. I just want to hold her on my arms and tell her everything will be alright, but I got to stay strong. She looks at me and I just give her a little nod to show her I'm feeling the same even though I might not show it.

John and I find a spot to sit on one of the benches. I sit next to John and Perrie. John was sitting next to Caden. Everyone was just sitting waiting for some one to talk or for one of the Generals to give out orders on how we are going to attack back when the enemy comes.

Because they are on there way here.

Every one was just quiet. Not talking not moving. Silent and still.

I didn't like that but I guess I have to deal with it because I don't want to be the first one to make small talk.

I look around the room looking at everyone. Look at all the great loving people I met that I got the privilege to call friends.

I look at Natalie, she had a life to live. A beautiful daughter back at home and a wonderful fiancee. She has so much to live for. I'm happy to be able to call her my best friend...forever. If I had too out in that battle field I would take a bullet for her without even thinking about it.
