I thought having a flash back to when America and Con were kids would be fun!

Time back 1607.

Confederates Pov

I wake up startled, I was sweating and had tear marks on my face. I had a bad dream last night, Me and America were fighting and I almost killed her. When I woke up she bolted up too,  "Who are you, And why did your hurt my brothe-" she tried to say, but before she could finish she fell back and went back to sleep. I snickered and stood up, I walked out of our tent and looked around at the morning dew.(  Just wanted to add so no one gets confused, I see all the tribes as America and Confederates sibling and family okay? just wanted to tell you so you dont get confused. That's why in the last Chapter Con says "Britain killed her and your other aunts and uncles, a couple of them survived but no one knows where they are.'')

Mom always got up early to get food, ever since Mother went away she always wakes up early and does that. I see sister Cherokee and run up to her. " Good morning Chero!" I say happily. She picks my up and puts me on her hip. " Osda sunalei my little sun shine( Good Morning My little Sunshine" she says, kissing my cheek.(Fyi i found a Cherokee translator) " Where's Mama?" I ask. " She left to get food. She'll be back soon." Chero(Nickname) says. I see America walk out of our tent, her hair in a rats nest. Chero lets me down and I run up to her. " Morning Brother.'' She says merrily, rubbing her eyes and yawning. " Want me to help with that" I say pointing at her hair. She smiles then nods. I grab a wooden brush and she sits down, I enjoyed helping her with her hair, it was calming. I start brushing out her hair,  she eventually starts humming a song my mother sings to us.

I smile, her voice was so beautiful. When I finish brushing her hair, I braid it and put it in a bun. " Thanks con!" She says touching it and smiling." Your welcome." I say smiling. After around 30 minute I see my mother running to our camp. I get worried then she shouts,"Ꭾ is coming get ready.( he is coming get ready)!!!"  I stand there frightened, my mom never acts like this. She runs over to me and says " Con, I need you to get your sister out of here as fast as you can, run and don't stop when you reach the water fall take cover in it." " But Mama-" I try saying." No buts just run." She snaps. She kisses the top of my forehead then runs over to my aunts and siblings. I run over to my sister, she had a spear and was ready to fight, I grabbed the spear from her and looked her dead in the eye with fright.  Even thought we were twins I was taller so I picked her up and ran. " Confederate what's happening?" she asked, grabbing onto me with dear life. " I don't know Mama said to go to the water fall." I answer back, holding in tears . 

When we make it we take a second for a breather and set up camp, America makes an fire and I get leaves to make an bed for us. America looks at me with tears in her eyes." Do you think mamas okay?" she asks, not making eye contact. " Mamas the best Meri, she will be fine." I answer, putting my hand on her shoulder. I didn't believe it, I didn't think she was going to be okay, but I wanted to believe it. (Fyi they are like 11 right know) She smiles and grabs her spear, " I'm going to get a rabbit, want some?" she asks. " sure I say smiling. she walked out letting the waterfall to get her wet. 

I sit waiting, I had  been rocking back and forth. Its been 30 minutes and she's not back, I started freaking out if she lied to me and went to find mama. I jump to the sound of  splashing behind me. She burst through the water fall panting, she was bleeding and looked like she had been attacked by a wild animal" Con He is coming" She says hiding behind me, she was cold and was hurt. Then I see a man,  bleeding  from the arm and had my sisters spear in it. He walked closer to me. "G-get back." I stutter, grabbing a rock and throwing it at him. He pulls out an weird thing I never saw before, he pointed it at me and my heart stopped. Then my ears started ringing, I feeling a liquid come from my ribs. I look down and bloods oozing out of me. My eye sight starts getting fuzzy and I fall down hitting the ground hard. Then I hear my sister screech, her voice of singing was now used for fear. I see the man grab her arm, I try reaching out for her, but I did not have the strength. Then it all went black.
