War On Peace

Chapter 7

(Jax's POV)

Huh. Where am I? I take a look around, I'm alone. This place is not familiar at all to me. "Guys??" I yell. "Sam? Zero? Andromeda." Nothing. I feel a sharp pain in my left arm.

"Shut up!" A voice echoes around the room. I can't find a place where it could have come from. There are no doors, the walls matched the color of the dirt.

Okay Jax, assess the situation. I look around, but still there is nothing. "How the actual fuck am I even alive."

"The boss wanted you alive," comes the voice again.

"And the others? Are they dead?"

"Why should I tell you. You killed one of our own." With a thud, a body falls to the ground. I look up, there are people surrounding an opening staring down at me. Blood wolves...

The one now laying on the ground in front of me was a redhead. She looked as if she was barely ten years old.

"We're gonna do to you what you did to her..." the wolf says. "After the boss is done with you anyways." The group starts laughing.

"Monsters!"

"Us, monsters?" A different wolf says. "We are the monsters? That triggers me. We allow siblings, we don't give all our resources to a person who doesn't care if we can even survive. You are dumb, you are the monster, you kill our children and take others away and turn them against us. If you would just join us we wouldn't need to fight." I can't believe these people think they are the innocent ones. "If it wasn't for your people we would be peaceful and we would have never scorched the ground."

"The boss wants that person to see what we are like and then send him back to his people." A new voice says. "And he wants the man brought to him." A couple of the people got negative looks on their faces.

"All they are, are murderers." The people above began arguing. "They will never change."

"We share the same blood as them, we came from the same group of settlers as them."

"They turned our kin against us. Three suns ago they killed out Luna."

"We tried to kill them, what would you have done."

"Stop arguing," an old and shaky voice says stopping all the noise.

"Boss, what are you doing out here? What if you had fallen?"

"I'll be fine. Get that man out of the pit. For god's sake, get over Luna, she's gone burn her already."

A latter falls down and thuds on the ground.

"Bring the girl with you."

I pick up the girl and struggle to climb the ladder. When I reach the top the dead girl is taken away. I have an easier time getting up.

I look around. I am surrounded by houses. There are children looking at me with scared faces. One person, in particular stands out to me. He is an old man, his eyes are glossed over in white. He has a long shaggy beard that's mixed black and white. He must be the leader.

I think about making a run for it. I scan the area for an escape. No matter where I look I see houses and people. There is no escape.

"Go ahead, run." The old man says. "You will be killed on the spot."

I look at the old man. "For being blind you are quick to catch things."

"Blind?" The old man chuckles, "I'm blind with my eyes, yes, but I can feel your Aura. Young man, you are not normal, I feel it, your biology was changed."
