The Marine

The Fight (random one)

            NOTE THIS IS A RANDOM CHAPTER SO yea...I am procrastinating my essays so bare with me everyone :D!!!!

         So all the events that occurred to me yesterday...the Fourth of July...made everyone around me question me...asking me shit like Why freak out? It was just fireworks nothing to fear and shit like that... The easiest way to explain to them was that I have been in the fight where I only hear explosions...and now coming home and hearing fireworks...made me think someone was attacking us ..but not in that kind of way... I know I am confusing but deal with it..... They just stared at me like I had two heads...which was very irritating... I just said "let it go....it is in the past so forget about it..." they nodded knowing that I wasn't going to talk anymore...

It was in the afternoon when I was walking with Chris to a store...we didn't have the cars today and I was lazy to ask...we were just walking and someone shouted from across the street "HEY! YOU SOLDIER!!"  I looked over and there stood 3 guys and 2 girls... I just starred at them and replied "What?"  they said, "Did you just get home?"  I said, "yep I did!"  They said, "Welcome home!" I nodded and smiled....thinking it was over we kept walking but I looked back they all were crossing the street and walking towards us...Chris and I looked at each other in confusion... This one guy said, "I'm Phil and that's Jake, James, Lily, and Amanda..." I said "I am Drake and this is Chris, can we help you?"  the guy whose name was Phil laughed and said, "We just wanted to ask you where you were deployed and stuff?"  I looked at him "I was deployed in Iraq.." The look on everyone's face confused me... I said "Why?"  he said, "Well we heard about this squad there, who were blown to bits..crazy right?!!?" I starred at him and said "Why are you telling me this..." he replied, "Well we are working on a project about soldiers in Iraq and we saw you on the news and yea.." I looked at them and said, "No, I am not part of your little project find another soldier" with that I nudged Chris and we both kept walking... 

The dude said "Oh come one its like 3 questions and that's it!' i turned to him and said "I bet I know those questions... one is How many people do you see die out there...2. how many people did I kill....and 3. What is it like seeing things blown up or some shit like that...I am not answering any of your questions..please don't be like the news reporters because I dislike them..."  They all looked shocked, which means the questions I mention were similar to theirs.... the dude Jake started talking.."Yo, I thought soldiers were kind and shit and would answer anything we asked man..this guy is a disappointment lets go find another soldier.." I starred at him... I said "Listen here punk, I am no dud... I bet you 100 bucks that if you find another soldier they wouldn't talk either...you don't know what its like out there, so you have no say if we have to answer or not...its a free country man.... so you all can go fuck off and mind your own damn business..and if you have a problem with that why don't you enlist and then you can answer your own damn questions..you have no right to speak to me like that..you disrespectful piece of shits!!..." before I can go any further Chris pulled me away and made me walk away from....

While we were walking away Phil yelled "sorry about my friend...he doesn't know better" instead of replying I put my hand up...implying I heard him...then Jake said "Yea man walk away you scared mother fucker!" that's when I stopped and I heard the friends say to him "wtf man, why the hell did you say that!"  Chris was staring at me, watching me, to see what I was going to do... I turned towards them...I mean if you look around us there is a lot of people watching...I did not give 2 fucks about it... I walked towards them and said "You think I'm scared...what am I scared of...Answering your stupid ass questions...or did you think I am scared of you?" Which made me laugh...Jake  said, "You're a chicken..." I stared at him and said "Me a chicken?... While being in Iraq I have been ambushed every day...got shot at, got blown up, getting stabbed, and being thrown around..definitely makes me a chicken..I am no chicken you son of a bitch.... I would sacrifice my life to save my brothers... I became a marine to serve my country and the people...but I don't serve assholes like you....If you want to keep crying about me not answering your stupid questions then grow a pair and walk away..because I ain't going to tell you shit now..."  I was getting closer each time I talked to him... we were literally face to face at the moment... and I wasn't going to back down...neither was his...Before I can speak another word he was going to punch me but I caught his hand and smirked...and he tried again with his other hand which I caught... I had his two hands together..if he wants to fight..I am willingly going to join in...I headbutted him and he fell on the ground holding his head in pain... I said "If you wanna start a fight I think you should know not only am I marine but I did do some underground street fighting and I never lost a single fight... so fight me if you like..but you won't get you anywhere..."  none of his friends were willingly gonna help him,.. wow some friends he got.. I laughed and Jake got up and said "lets do this..."
