The Wilds

Chapter 8

Recap

"America, I like it. See you soon." I smiled. She was definitely a leader. Just by the way she carried herself. She must be a good leader. Elisa definitely looked up to her and I Will too!

Brayan POV

I can't believe she just waltzed into my camp with my people just to gain our trust and kill us all. The saddest part? I almost believed her. Almost.

I rounded a corner and stopped. Waiting for that opportunity to kill her. I waited and waited and waited but she never came.

This is so stupid! Where is she? You know what? I'm not waiting I need to go cool off. Guess I'll just walk to the creek.

Kayla POV

I left the room and was on to my room when I realized I needed to think. The only person who knows enough for the plan was me so I left. I walked out into the woods and started walking. The sound of the woods intrigued me. The bird songs, the wistling of the trees, and the whisper of the leaves. It was surreal.
I got so lost in this that I fell into the creek before me. The minute I looked up I knew I had found my thinking place.

And it was beautiful.

Tropical plants lined the boarder along with colorful bushes and beautiful trees that met with a pond and ended in a waterfall. I walked along the creek to the pond and decided to go for a swim in the crystal blue water. I took a breath in from the calming air and dove in.

Life was good and relaxation was all mine.

Brayan POV

I walked beside the creek to the waterfall and sat on the mossy earth beneath me.

Finally I could think.

I played back and closed my eyes.

I wonder why she even came here. I know she is Rally's finest but so was Derek "Once Upon A Time" and he was a great leader. NO! Did I go crazy?!! She can't be trusted!! For all I know she-

CRACK!

My eyes shot open.

"Move and you die. Where is she?"

I looked at the finely groomed Warrior and spit on him. He will NOT threaten me!

"Bad move."

I revived a swift kick to the face followed by a punch to the gut. I threw all my weight on him pushing him to the ground. I looked around to see that's a were not alone. There were at least 10 other Rally Warriors with him. I faltered. I can't beat this many alone but I'll die trying.

I was pinned back to the ground with enough force to break my bones. I gasped for air when the wind was knocked out of me. I have to get him off!

I struggled and bit at his arm but he only squeezed tighter making me close my eyes and cringe. Only when I heard cracking bones did I panic. I took rapid breaths until I realized all the pressure had been released off of me.

I opened my eyes to Kayla offering her hand to help me up.

What's happening here? Why should I trust her and what Is she even doing here?

"Come on. We need to go now!" Kayla reasoned with me.

Is this a trick?

Smack! Kayla took a slap to the face but quickly recovered and kicked the Rally's feet out from under them. The Rally fought back and grabbed her leg and pulled her down with them, then earned a kick to the face that came with a sickening crack and a scream.
