Dragons : The Dragon Hunt

73. Captured (Part 1)

-Third Person's POV-

As the landmine exploded when Dennis and Dusty had tried to find a way in how to remove Dusty from the landmine that he stepped on, the force had been so powerful that it all the boys had been sent on to air and dropped down the ground again after a several seconds. As Dennis almost hit the ground, he unwraps Dusty from around his arms and released him, sending him onto the ground. Dennis had a bad landing as he touches the ground, As Dennis had finally thuds on the ground, he hit his body badly including his head and lost his consciousness. The boys had also landed badly, but not as same as Dennis who almost cracked his head up, they all had been prone on the ground until a minute after, but they do not know if Dennis is still good or okay. After the explosion happened, they all had some ashes on their faces, shirts and their  whole clothing. They all had been in pain as they landed down the ground, their different parts of their bodies ached in pain, more painful from their previous accidents. After a minute, they all finally moved, but Dusty was the one to move first and checked Dennis.

-Dusty's POV-

I blinked my eyes open, very slowly, as I tried to move myself but I let out a groan instead. Every part of my body hurts in pain, I really should have not come here by now. Well, my eyes were blurring and my ears were ringing a little bit, the pains had been mostly on my chest and back. As I tried to crawl slowly using my hands but I didn't make it because of the pain that crept my body. I tried again as I finally gained force and started to sit upright behind me, as I finally sat upright, I rubbed my eyes to clear my vision. My vision was cleared after that very fast, as the blurriness on my eyes had wore off, I blinked my eyes several time to see my front side. Honestly, I didn't remember anything before I went to sleep. I finally opened my eyes for the last time and checked my surroundings. I saw a large crater filled with a black pigment that had been inside, what happened here?

'What the Thor happened here?!', I asked myself curiously, as I petted my chin with my right hand and though about what happened here. I did not remember a thing already before I go sleep on the ground, but I the only thing I remember is I had been dropped down on this exact position and had my rifle on me. My rifle? I checked my body if my AR15 as still intact, as I saw it in font of my body, hanging the gun's sling on my right shoulder. I quickly grabbed my gun and pushed the button which releases magazine, and I caught it with my left hand checked the bullets in it. The bullets were still there that time, as I finally shoved my magazine back to its slot and checked my sides if I could remember anything of what happened here. I cocked my head left to right first as I saw nothing on the left. But, as I turned to the right side, I saw four people lying on the ground unconsciously or dead, my eyes widens quickly as I saw them, I quickly stood up with my whole force and tried to observe them if they are dead on the ground.I was swaying right to left as I still didn't regain my force on my body and my ears was still ringing, I looked like a limp as I walked that time, could not take balance on myself. As I landed on the one of the man near me, I noticed that he was also covered in a black pigment that look like a powder, but I noticed it was a gunpowder. He was facing on the right side as he was lying on the ground,so I decided to turn him on front of me. I grabbed his left side and pulled him towards me, as he finally reveals his face and I looked at him. I observed him if he was dead or just unconscious. I gently pressed my left hand on his chest where his hear is found, as I felt for the heartbeat that could be the evidence that he still alive and breathing. After a moment, I finally felt for a heartbeat, there was one, and I heard that he breathes a huge amount of air using his mouth. He is breathing! As something snapped on my mind and quickly recognized him quickly, I tried to open my mouth and called the man's name.

"Sairo?", I said, in a question-like way, as I observed his face for it, I came closer to his face to really see if it was him, my vision was still blurring a little at that time, so I was curious that maybe it was not him. But, as I moved my head near his, my jaws dropped and quickly said a word, I gasped in surprise as I finally that it was him.
