Happiness: Tales from the dark side

Chapter 7: Blood Stained

(Hello again lovelies, after a long time I have officially returned and will be trying to finally finish this story. I know a lot of you have been waiting for that. Well your waiting is no longer needed because I'm back.)
The Army Held the kids at gun point telling them to not move or they will be shot on sight."Damn it, we were so close to getting away!", yelled Maxwell.
One of the army men spoke, "alright kids show is FUCKING over, we're taking all of you back to the asylum. If any of you little fucks try to escape, we will be absolutely forced to shoot you on sight. No more escaping ok?"
All of the kids stood silent, until Runa broke the silence, "o-ok. We'll obey. Please just don't hurt any of us." One soldier put his firearm down, out of empathy. He stared at the kids and felt bad that they were about to kill nothing but kids. The general walked up and spoke, "Jesus Christ. What the hell are we doing? These are children. Yes they are mentally unstable but.. They're still kids. Who called this order? It was supposed to be an attempt to bring them back to the damn asylum! Not a mass fucking shooting. For fuck's sake we live in America and we already have enough of this. How do you think the president will feel when we tell him we massacred mentally challenged children? Call it off. Let them go for fuck's sake." All except one of the soldiers listened and put away their firearms, realizing how afraid the children were. The rouge solider got nervous and ended up shooting an handicapped girl who had screws in her arms and legs. She dropped down to the floor, dead immediately. The general tackled the Solider and started punching him, "What the hell is wrong with you?! I said we're calling this operation off! You had an order and you failed to go with it! I can't just let you get away now." The general pulled out his phone and called 9-1-1 to report the crime he just witnessed. All of the children screamed and ran away as soon as the handicapped girl's body dropped to the ground. The soldiers didn't stop them whatsoever. Maxwell and the rest of the kids got away and found another cabin hidden away with bushes and trees. They all went inside without saying a word for a while until Runa, once again, broke the silence, "fuck.. I'm so glad we got away.. But.. We lost a lot while getting away. What are we going to do now?" The children sat down and were silent still. It was hard to talk or even look at each other after seeing so many of them slaughtered during the escape. Maxwell stood up and spoke, "guys... We have to go somewhere
We can't just keep running around and getting ourselves killed. We have to find a way to lay low but not here. We just gotta deal with the fact that we're escaped convicts from an asylum and we're not getting anywhere sitting here. We have to think of a plan." Everyone looked up at him and conversations of agreement were spreader across the room. All until Kendra stood up, "Who exactly said you were calling the shots? We didn't even have an agreement on you just trying to be the leader of this. What exactly do you even have in mind that we should do?" Maxwell glared at Kendra and walked slowly to her, "who else will? Let's not forget I wasn't even thrown into this damn asylum to begin with. We broke your asses out because we killed our damn parents and ran away over here. You can at least be fucking grateful that you're no longer in that hell hole!" Kendra looked at Maxwell, pissed. She kept her ground but, couldn't really disagree or argue with what he said. Kendra sighed and nodded, "I hate to admit it but, you're right. We would still be trapped if it wasn't for you but I gotta ask, why did you do it? What was the point of risking your lives for people you don't even know?"
Maxwell thought to himself and never realized why he did it. He just felt he had to help out his fellow mentally unstable people. Kendra and Maxwell both shook hands and put aside their disagreements. "Alright. Tonight we sleep but tomorrow I know a good place we can go to hide out but also go out and look normal. There is no way there is a bounty on us, we're escaped asylum bastards, not some sly thieves that just robbed a museum", spoke Samantha. The group of children nodded and all went into the beds to rest. (That's all for now lovelies. Thank you so much for being patient and I hope I'm not losing any of you because trust me. It may not seem bad but I don't make promises I can't keep. Stay amazing and thank you for all of this support. I'll see you in the other dark side.)
