Chapter 19 Hey, cuz! How you been the last 12 lonely years of your life?
How about on the next stop we have I attack the guards and take over the horses. Do you know how to steer horses? No...Um, get rid of guards, loot them, run away. Where will you go? Do you even know where we are right now? I'll just find the nearest town. Maybe the guards have a map. Or maybe they're traveling based on the terrain. A compass. They at least have to have a compass. Do you know what direction your suppose to be heading? No...Let myself be sol- No, kit! We don't know what those people will do to you. Remember how Sakura looked...If the people that are handling you now would do that to you what would the people they're selling you to do?
I groaned and slid further down the wall,"What's the matter, Shounou."
"...I don't feel good. Just talk."
"Huh?"
"I need to get my mind away from some thoughts. Talk about whatever you want..."
"We always went fishing...Me and my brothers. We'd go to the lake near our house and fish. I'd always catch small ones. And I'd bring them home and keep them. They'd always die though...But one day we were out fishing and something was tugging on my line. I thought I had just caught another small one so I reeled it in but it tugged on my line hard and the rod almost slipped out of my fingers." he smiled reminiscing in the good memory he was sharing.
"My brothers saw and told me to pull hard. They encouraged by telling me that I could do it. The fish on my line pulled and eventually tried to swim away with my hook still in it's mouth. I was holding onto my fishing rod so tight that I was swept off the deck as the fish swam away. I would have been dragged by it if my brothers hadn't grabbed my feet. My head was in the water and I wasn't getting air. They finally realized that and pulled me up." he laughed.
"They reeled in the fish since I couldn't...It ended up being two feet long. Never caught anything like that again."
"How old were you?"
"Eight."
"How old are you now?"
"14 maybe 15." He doesn't know if he's skipped his birthday.
"...How long have you been here."
He pulled one knee to his chest and rested his arm on it,"I don't know. It's felt like a year..."
"What else did you do besides fishing?"
"Archery."
"Accuracy?"
"Hit the target all the time as long as it wasn't moving."
"You hunt?"
"Yeah."
"Let's go hunting sometime."
"...Sure." The wagon suddenly stopped and I was falling but Katsuo caught me,"You okay?"
"Yeah, thanks."
"The fuck!" one of the guards yelled,"You go check wha-" I heard a slice and then gurgling noises.
"They're being ambushed. Has this ever happened before?" I asked Katsuo.
"No." he shook his head.
"...We have a chance of escaping." I whispered. I heard the clang of metal on metal,"While they're too busy fighting their enemy off we can escape."
"...They have weapons, more men. I'm not exactly strong you know." He's right. He's so skinny and probably is weak.
"We at least have to try. We can't jus-" I heard wood splintering. Some of the kids started screaming. A large blade was jutting in from the outside. The blade was removed and the wielder chopped at the wood again,"If he makes it big enough we'll-" a large piece was ripped off and more people started making the hole bigger. Once it was big enough one of them stuck their head in and laughed...Here's Jonny...They poured a liquid on the opening and touched a burning torch to it.
