To Murder Or To Be Murdered (3) DRAFT

Chapter 14

Maddy's POV

I still can't believe this but I'm really on a submarine. Jason has some connections in the world and somehow got us this. It's amazing.

"Hey." Jaz interrupts my thoughts and comes and sits next to me.

"Hey." I reply.

"You ok?"

"Yeah, I just worry. There's a very little chance we're all gonna come back alive. It scares me it'll be some one close to me." I say.

"This entire war will have that fear surging through us. We just need to push it aside." Jaz says.

"How long until we arrive?" I ask changing the subject.

"I'm not sure. A few Hours, maybe a day. I don't know." She says.

"It could be a week." I mutter.

"Could be." Jaz mumbles.

"How exactly is this gonna go down?" I ask.

"Wreck havoc after observation." Jaz explains. "How should I know?" I smile.

"No ones gonna die this time. I hope not at least. We don't want that do we?" Jaz asks.

"What do we do until we arrive?" I ask.

"Kill time. Plan. You and me are gonna plan. The others I'm not sure what they're doing. Playing Texas Holdem Poker probably. I love Texas Holdem." Jaz says.

I think it's Texas Holdem let me know if that's wrong.

"Shall we join them?" I ask. She smiles and looks thoughtful for a moment.

"Why not?" She asks. I smile and follow her to the poker table. We take seats.

"Hey guys joining?" Vira asks.

"You worked in a casino! You know every trick!" I say to Vira. She smiles and shrugs with an eyebrow raised. Well. I'm not winning then.

"Here comes the cards!" Matt says and deals them. Well aren't my cards spectacular. A two and a seven. The worst hand you can get.

As I predicted, Vira won. But I had a terrible hand so that's why I didn't.
She's good at bluffing and choosing when to go. Damn casino worker.

Even though I'm completely failing at poker, I'm enjoying it. We all are. A single thought crosses my mind though, this could be the last time we ever laugh and joke together.
