Crisis

Allies

Edds P.O.V

"Your all my closest, not soliders, but freinds. We've been through thick and thin together so I decided I would tell you guys the news first. I know your fimair with the story of our old freind Tord, and you know about Tom. After the ambush yesterday it seems neither of them are dead. Tord is the Red Leader and Tom is one of his highest ranking soliders." A mummer fell over the people.
 
Damian stepped out of the crowd, he never turned down a fight and always was willing to save others even if he knew there was a small chance of him surviving. He's anyways been close with Matt and I. He walked up to me as the people talked amongst themselves, "Edd, what are you proposing?" He whispered.

Matt joined me on stage, "The Red Army wants to become allies." The thunderous mummers stoped. People stared at us wide eyed.

"Edd, I get you were freinds with them, but we're talking about thee Red Leader here! I trust you, I really do but . . . I'm not sure . ." Delilah, A ponytailed brunette said. Damian grabbed her hand. They were one of the few siblings who survived, they found eachother through the rebellion.

Damian spoke loud and clear for everyone to hear, "Hey! Listen up, I know we're all scared and unsure about this but when have these men made the wrong decision?" He looked at Matt and I, "I think we can all agree that this rebellion has saved our lives in all kinds if ways. Whether it be bringing together family, giving you hope for tomorrow, making lost broken kids smile again, sheltering the hurt, helping the helpless. We're all in this together, and you know what? If Edd and Matt think this is the right way to go then damit, I think so too! Who's with me?" Men and woman cheered, he winked and steped down.

"I'm glad we can agree. Now, on the other side we know the black army has always been right behind the Red Army. Constantly at war for power, the other day a black solider was spotted not to far from our Base. They planted a bomb in one of the children here. Lucky we got it off. A new recruit, Sasha and a boy from the Red Armys followed a cry of help, they saved a group of kids who were about to be killed by this solider. So two things, one, the black army is on our trail. They're going to take down everyone in their way. Including us. The kid from the Red Army told the other kids to run and he'd take down the man, he had been blackmailed by this solider. This kid from the Red Army risked his life for a couple if kids he didn't even know. Which brings me to two, change is possible. The Red Leader didnt always have a choice in what he was doing. So we're going to be allies."

Matt spoke up, "Adding to that, what the Black Army just pulled on this kid was a big deal. So they're definitely planning something but since that accident they've been quite. From now on whenever you go off base make sure you have a group. If you see anything suspicious report it imminently. We'll be working together with them. Your dismissed." Everyone cleared the room except for Damian and Delilah.

"I can't believe we're actually doing this." Damian nervously laughed.

"It's a little late for that, especially since you just gave that heartfelt speech on why we should do this." Delilah snickered. "Oh, speaking of Sasha, have you told her yet?"

I scratched my neck, "Not yet, I just, I mean, I know I have to tell her but where do I even start?"

"Yeah, she's pretty stuck on hating them.." Matt sighed.

"How about this, you two talk about it with her then I will. You know, just some girl to girl understanding?" Delilah smiled, there weren't too many woman on base but even so Delilah seemed like the mom of the base. She was always worrying about everyone, even Matt and I. She and Sasha talked a lot, they got along well.

"Your a life saver!" I beamed.

"That's right . . ." Damian mumbles as if remembering something.
