785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOehZU8XTj
Davids relief didn't 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusGXXBg22Q
last long as he saw Gob slowly coming out of the water and joining him 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLG6uh6yXG
on the shore, barely looking tired, no in fact, taking a better look, he785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepPeiOw8gB
didn't even look tired. Gob pulled someone else from the water, someone785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyzUmBYRwv
who had it even worse than David. Her brown hair was plastered to her 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvTt5B8JBg
head and face as she was reeking water and barely breathing. David would785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfIVnAoNz7
be lying if he said that he didn't feel a bit better knowing he was 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSzs7xAxyU
better off than Angela.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoMfV5BHGj
"Breathe slowly and calm785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A7UnQLfJh
down. It'll only be worse if you take quick breathes." Came Gobs calm 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7NcXCSRBD
voice as he was wringing his beard from the water. It did seem to have a785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnDMkJE424
bit of an effect on Angela as she visibly calmed down and her breathing785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6gnQKtMXJ
got steadier.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuJJfLaZ7n
"Useless." Gob said as 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFpsrz3oQw
he inspected his musket and pistol, dropping them on the grassy shore, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzVZhLgwyo
but nodded as he took out his knife and examined the edge. "Well when 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNN6jRXRAZH
you two are done we can start moving, we have places to be."785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV2S6Nc8YI
After his conversation 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwuMwP849I
with Francesca, David knew where they had to be. David just wasn't sure 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CJTvnU2JE
if Francesca told Gob about their conversation so, he decided, it would 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBCNwDYE3r
be best to keep quiet, lest he wanted to be tied up again.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbgkp89Upc
"Where...where to?" Came Angela's question with a rasp.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sr8Uifan7
"To get new weapons and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeoVA2CXkV
find the others." Gob said, putting his knife back into his sheathe and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pBXq8XoSF
drying his shoes from any excess water.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6A45B3dBFV
"Wai...wait. They might still be stuck in there! We..need to go back." Angela said, her voice slowly coming back.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqiuqwtgUp
"If they are then it's too late. Now come on let's go." Gob said, unflinching.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vMSHP8WZ9
"No!" Angela stood up 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EVWPaU5ML
and faced Gob. Which was impressive as Gob towered over her, he towered 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmanQl7guk
over most people. "I will not abandon them They might be alive and..and I785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhQYO4385R
won't lose them." Gob didn't answer. He just glared at Angela until she785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uhCvpFL9B
averted her glaze. He nodded when she did so.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWfsVJp3qy
"If I could do anything 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn6CJTrDsX
for them I would." Angela gave a weak nod to that. Gob grunted and began785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtJisKcH5T
walking. He kicked David, who was still enjoying the ground underneath 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wl0jgwgZa
him, for good measure as well. "As much as I hate it you're coming with 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatfir0MHrd
us. Now get up."785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM83JpvJXt1
David grumbled but got up. Not much else to do but follow the man with the plan, and the knife, and the murderous intent.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlydtrA5BID
Thus, they began their 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgciXBVUW07
journey, in silence except for the squeaks their clothes and shoes made.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0f3ERXgOZ
David was miserable, with the sun slowly setting down he was barely 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6MoH2MBwK
able to see what's in front of him, barely being able to suppress a 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hkdCGkJ6X
shiver whenever there was a gust of wind. Angela was pretty much the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY5gooqffi
same, except that she was also sullen and worried for her brothers. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94FQzkNGex
David tried opening a conversation a few times but she just smiled 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡja8IweEa0r
weakly. David was confused why she either followed him or Gob instead of785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQZzNROVIM
following one of her brothers, but it didn't seem like she was up to 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVwsxe03qa
answering that, no matter how much David prodded.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09lkZGZvRK
The only one not 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwCHGDXD9X
affected by his current condition seemed to be Gob. He managed to avoid 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXSyCdHVyj
any loose branches or an uneven part of the mud, even his clothes didn't785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezESCJrSIm
make any noise when walking. The only thing he really reacted to was 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhhw5r9TUZ
gunfire, which could still be heard from the direction of their hideout.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeYWnRLThL
It was also the only thing that woke Angela from her stupor as whenever785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyTuS4na2l
it rang she immediately looked at the direction they walked from. But 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCqM5qqpIR
even those stopped, whether because of distance or the fact that there 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9xxoR9GLO
was no more fighting, David didn't know.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx5pt4zvKy
David hoped that 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKjFQkKxHc
adrenaline would keep him going for a while, David wasn't sure how long 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xOm6ikLVc
they've been walking but with the blood pumping through his veins he 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4mnEEDxPV
felt like he could walk a few more days straight. Hoping didn't seem to 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWS5OdTSwj
work for David, never did really, as the adrenaline was wearing down. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBqJrSZmxe
Slowing down more and more. Gob looked back and noticed David slowing 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ748U5tBlSg
down giving him a look of disdain, but then he looked at Angela who 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxPHQSFbwv
wasn't doing much better and sighted. "We can take a rest. Sit down, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMCDZYA4FG
I'll try finding some berries or anything for us to eat." 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RM9TQ3Rw9
David slouched to the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVxHvSQ41R
ground with a grateful sight while Angela sat down with her back to a 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqb0FLKO3Sv
tree, hiding her head in her knees, as silent as she was during the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUct1KIbwk2
whole walk. David didn't care how devastated she felt, but if she wasn't785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGdHrv3U30
fully there with them they might get ambushed and David didn't survive 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKO3pTJ1PE
so long just to have a teenage girl kill him because she was going 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMx2o2cAwJ
through mood swings. "Hey, they're strong. Even Twitch, I'm sure they're785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hhnumrGKN
fine and when we see them they'll be as cheery as ever." He called out 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4d9bnLSOy
from his spot, not bothering to move closer to Angela785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO13WzMDIM
No answer. ~Oh hells, do785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CXxSyb0Fh
we have another Rock on our hands? ~ David waited to see if he was 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTWFJnII4w
going to get anything from her. Mostly because he didn't know what else 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nl0auWF5j
he could say. After what felt like an eternity he heard...someone 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvu1Im64bge
sniffling and saw Angela shake. With a suppressed sight David got up and785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1SKzPKlRb
sat beside Angela, he hovered his hand above her shoulder but decided 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgqEUlKhI8
against putting it on her.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlXJ0iZGva
"I...I should've been 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmfnoJ3ife
there. I should've been there when pa was shot, I should've been there 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUwCyK2tbU
now. Oh gods...oh gods...." She continued in that vain for a while 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV9jYCk0Lp
seemingly not aware of her surroundings or any words that came out of 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibzYH0iW7Y
David's mouth.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHzJxqkaZs
"Why weren't you? Now, I785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xmbuBvkJG
mean, when the attack happened?" David asked anxiously, he wasn't the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydhApRRLgP
best when dealing with hysteric people. Again, no answer came, just more785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LBpHAz7E8
cries. David lost hope of ever getting an answer, but one finally came.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjJzyQlHN3
"It happened so fast. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLgmDCfs5K
I've tried following them, but I lost track of them... No that's wrong, I785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunzvCMXJWo
could see them during the attack but I couldn't get to them. And when 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBLEH3YMTp
everyone started retreating...oh god it was like a butchery. So when I 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJPdYCgjLx
saw Gob turning a corner I followed. I was scared...I was scared...oh 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLIxxmpMzt
gods I murdered them because I was scared." And then she began muttering785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BkWcVADv9
to herself again785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJ7a7d6kth
David struggled to find words, but thankfully Gob saved them from the awkward silence as he came back from his hunting trip.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaptbrFPd2T
The mighty hunter 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6Dpszhm2Q
managed to gather fruits and berries, apparently the fighting had scared785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTwIjWiHf8
most of the animals away, and they couldn't make a fire so they were 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAjgEud97J
stuck being cold, miserable and hungry. Berries weren't the most 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgENqzrVao
fulfilling things to have on an empty stomach 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJrnayi91f
Their respite didn't 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphWNX2Qe6q
last long, and they were on their way soon after. Angela seemed to have 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuecrt4q37f
calmed down, she still wasn't participating in conversations, but she 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TRWviOAL6
wasn't crying either and David counted that as a win. Even if Angela 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlUZPloH3H
wasn't paying attention to anything around her, David decided to trust 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rqGMzKVXc
in Gobs awareness of the surroundings to protect them from any ambushes,785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABOAJbq1an
he seemed to know where David was at all times, so he might as well put785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqv500dpDD
that skill to actual good use.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBusBhMFnE7
Thankfully their walk 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjwcb2uJAd
didn't last long, moving through the overgrown bushes and trees they 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaxigXk05B
reached the edge of the isle, looking down to the surface covered by 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UGSFnPDgd
clouds. It was told that if you'd look long enough over the edge you'd 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOOsCOEXid
go crazy, as far as David could tell that was true. Everyone he flew 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi8Qfvve1W
with was one degree of crazy or another, including David himself.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVQKK1ntAO
Gob motioned for them to785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7y3PUrR1E
wait as he went back into the forest, David was about to start another 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGH4ErNMYI
awkward conversation with Angela, but Gob returned quite quickly. He 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YUMEcUWgX
didn't return alone though, he had a fly boat with him, which he 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDMLNT4ANl
conveniently carried on his shoulder.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ce8GsAXxX
Fly boats were made out 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYetvFZE1j
of wood and had a ether engine on them. While smaller than ship engines,785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOpc71NVPU
they managed to lift the boat and three or four people, with the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0Gplmrahh
paddles being used to move while airborne. Movement was agonizingly slow785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vESZlKg5y
on them as well as dangerous. Ether engines were basically bombs, even 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOPMHIdrD0
small ones. Ships had precautions for that, security equipment shield 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwlCBjTChF
from the worst of it, of course it mattered little in the end, but the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Uz4TLIC4v
boats didn't even pretend to have those measures. So, Gob was basically 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzDh8LT5tW
carrying a bomb on his shoulders, with the same facial expression he ate785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsDYttSABA
or smiled. A frown.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPR9eNXbNBq
He put the boat down on 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJr6CkDdKx
ground and activated the engine with a practiced motion. The engine 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5axyQFYei
started making a sound. Gob nodded, lifted the boat and made some more 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgX6K8aZO3
motions which made the boat stay at that height. David had seen some 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJajbuhInId
boats while serving on ships and he knew they had no way to actually 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UtGA9GKaj
lift themselves up, only to float. Ships were the same, but with all the785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ytV94Atde
technology attached to the ship they were also able to lift themselves 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsyIl6WjCt
up. David moved his hand across his eyepatch and scar, the engine was 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZelOkDsxj
making his wounds ache.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqsDU6YbzO
Gob put the boat over 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpZwIX9Pig
the edge and jumped into it making the boat float down a bit but it came785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmbbUuJuwA
back to its assigned height in moments. "Well come on, we don't have 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDvawTDNJg
all day." David and Angela promptly followed, one more tentatively than 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqy9K4OhA8
the other. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHulrW2O46Z
Gob handed David the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjk2c2YUu6
paddles and he knew better than to argue. There went a relaxing trip 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8oau8Wl8l
over the bottomless skies with a bomb as his companion. Death seemed to 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3esgzNeTB
always just be one step either behind or ahead, David still couldn't 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4uWlaVdx4
decide which. ~There are worse fates than death~. David wholeheartedly 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf7wkeZKO4
believed this was definitely one of those fates.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeZKwlouVS
All though David did 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUEqZGgBJ9
grumble the boat itself moved quite fast. With both Gob and David 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMNMMOmmtH
paddling they made good time and soon enough they got their rhythm and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn4YFMDTkw
David's mind blanked out. He didn't even notice when they reached the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqZakgp74P
edge of the other isle, at the very leas not much time passed, judging 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoLtI0Lnlz
by the sun.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeSQMXeWii
They all disembarked, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjdPHInlub
and Gob opened a trapdoor hiding the boat after disabling its engine.. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd1oXeqCrn
When all seemed to his liking he closed the door and hid it with some 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEwGl4Q5Gy
make shift ground and grass "We'll need to find a place to sleep. My 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRuv0KuTng
friends wanted to meet tomorrow so we'll need to find a safe spot." 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQA6ChGzIwT
David had no idea what day it was or how long it's been since the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiUQMxzvHb
attack, good thing Gob the human sized watch was on the job.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOPmiZ4VyR
"How do they manage to 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7lhXDnC66
slip past the patrols?" David asked, it just seemed like they were 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLXv6BVU6O
walking into a trap, especially after the attack. Gob kept walking and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46D5tDvFxb
it didn't look like he was going to answer, but at the end he relented. "785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXDaalcNDW
They have special...permission to be on any isles they want, as long as785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkldZlOhcJG
it's a good reason no one will suspect them."785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGT4t2zIEUd
David nodded, the answer785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXND2KU1qza
didn't ease his worries, but it was the only answer he had and not like785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpcKTDZHSn
he had much of a choice but to follow their glorious leader.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TNdPgw30q
One thing David noticed,785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAr78JxjcP
during their walk, was that some of the shrubbery was more burned and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLrhRAH8fg
drier on this isle. This wasn't so rare. Apparently when their ancestors785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGyEInc3ZX
were plunged into the skies they couldn't hope with the change of 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtw2jKy97W
weather. No rain or protection from the sun meant that many trees and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2at29FTiQ
plants either caught fire or dried out. Mages had to think fast and some785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTZ28T9lBf
of the isles were luckier than others, with the mages making everything785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4DEU495No
self-sustainable. Over time the forests adapted, and new seeds didn't 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjwjy9lKrL
require rain to survive. The aftermath could still be seen on most 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKdduc9Urc
isles, especially on ones that rulers deemed inconsequential. Oh, what 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNMgZyWPHb
things you learn while travelling with people from all flights of life.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Pi0vwSUIT
It made him remember 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpr4zfpvcs
life before meeting the rebels. Much more carefree, just flying, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTfLHIjrEw
gambling, sometimes betraying. A happier life, happier than walking 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73qKz9iK99
around in the mud and cold at least. ~Happiness is for people who aren't785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFFxJ6weKy
damaged. The chosen few who get to enjoy it, while the rest just 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAQ3JD35bP
pretend to have it. ~ Indeed, happiness was something David could never 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDecj3QAAwF
feel or archieve. He could only pretend to feel it. David accepted that 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsEbJQu7ho
as part of his life, he wasn't sure when he did but he knew it happened a785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5BPfQPxEc
while ago.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW3zwdPqvo
Just as previously they 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UycYfGkRm
walked in silence, with Gob in the lead pausing every so often to listen785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqRjV4DsRY
to his surroundings. Until reaching their next camping spot. On top of a785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO253NJQBg
hill with dried out yellow grass. Not a lot of trees surrounding them, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4uZNRAtpe
but only one way to get on top of the hill. Easy to defend and easy to 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVpJUJ3cxU
get spotted if not careful. Gob went to go hunt and left David and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv00sX7bMf
Angela on their own to set up camp. David was able to follow Gob, with 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgXCXiltzl
his eyes, now that the colours of his uniform did not match the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuloRzm040U
surroundings, of course that didn't mean he could do it for long and 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBg47sBgQcc
sooner rather than later Gob disappeared from David's view.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBogoyhtzov
David was apprehensive 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡva0WDuJq1s
on starting a conversation with Angela, thus he just concentrated on 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKkImJ7eF9
making his sleeping spot as comfortable as possible, while she sat with 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUAkz1ZlYb
her head down. It didn't take Gob long to come back with some food, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUZf9IfCl8
berries and such again. It didn't look like he had any luck hunting. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN84UMDNJZ
Maybe he was just rubbish at it. That thought made David feel better.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTk0AoOgDsu
Before they all turned 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iZzrxeAzE
to their respective spots on the ground Gob approached David. "You'll 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBmYw5Umyo
take the second watch, I'll wake you." David just started to say 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwub6UtnLCw
something, but Gob turned around and stalked away before any words could785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdHfCGlgDS
be formed. Shrugging David laid down on the ground and contemplated how785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7vf6Umd1r
far he and Gob came. ~Sure, and soon he'll let his guard down and will 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCrKQhi6gY
be an easy target~ David went to sleep imagining that sweet thought.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoiK963xE5
Sadly the sweet dream 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL09CHncPn
turned into a nightmare, as he was rudely woken up by Gob, who 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScnfvDpW50
immediately went away after kicking David awake. Rubbing his eyes David 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwnegZwfLj
walked to a boulder which provided a good view of the only path up to 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGZOc9xy62
the hill. He wasn't sure what he was actually supposed to do if imperial785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZubvXtPMNt
soldiers found them, wake everyone up so they'd be arrested in an 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6ZSozLL2x
orderly manner? Or pretend he's a huge bear? David contemplated on 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8MSOmYpcI
making a roaring noise but quickly subdued that thought. Gob would 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pCubf3cTT
probably kill him and the bear, imaginary or not.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnypTglderz
~Or maybe just hide yourself or betray them. Wouldn't be the first time. Not like they matter. ~ 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0OWdU1Oyp
David shook his head and785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPNCUJLGzi
let his mind wander to more cheery thoughts and over time the sun came 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdeEDFe866
back shining light on all the yellowish grass. Slowly Angela and Gob 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jIxcIawjn
joined David in the wake world. It was so nice and quiet without them 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjHTUiEutX
too.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq90sGxSz2
They spent the morning 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dAgUK15Ai
in silence finishing all the berries; Gob was his usual gruff self. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30VEfWzYj1
David was feeling tired and Angela was still grieving. ~What a fun 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XCaRPuuCG
crowd. ~785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxboq0qsX5
After they were all done785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZupzunLT5e
their journey began anew. Surprisingly David felt positive about it, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArlkN0JGgj
his clothes were finally dry, the sun was out and shining. He even 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FXC7MpG7b
started to believe that it wasn't a trap they were walking into. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4rvCSsDjD
Positivity all around.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCCTwCHWeB
Soon they reached the 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡor2MzW2zkW
meeting spot. A secluded edge of the isle, surrounded by dead and burned785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8jNYkfy0e
trees. There were people there already, a small crowd with a smaller 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVexINkLQdv
ship floating above a crack. The aforementioned ship was flying league 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iV2xhwnJV
colours. That explained why they'd be able to go here without much 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ8Sq16XOt
scrutiny. Some of the trading princes were rich enough to buy their own 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNM1UEyZHN7
isles so bribing a few officials to look the other way wouldn't be too 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWqP59icJp
hard and as long as they weren't caught doing anything suspicious 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tjupmKT4o
everyone won.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JtsCVZGzM
Gob seemed to be pretty 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwPwMjhvsA
tense, while still out of the view of the men he slid his knife out of 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDNEpEptFE
the sheathe and hid it in his sleeve. Having finished his preparations 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzdNW6mb2n
he made his way towards the group of people. Without further 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMNJG2tqXq
instructions from Gob, shrugging, David followed Gob, with Angela slowly785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRM30x92xQ
making her way behind David.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoSAc0MUJy
"Where's Lev?" Gob 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vfFGIid2x
shouted from a distance. One of the men walked up and put his hands up 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0YhMOzMEm
in a cheerful manner. "Couldn't make it, friend. My name is Ioseph. Lev 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdmf0G7n8t
told me everything. You are Gob, yes?"785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZ6gWOIu2U
Reaching the middle 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiYHM6cphl
point the two men met and Gob carefully nodded. " Why not?" Ioseph 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguhBWBpiUu
shrugged jovially. "Dangerous times, friend.A lot of pirates, a lot of 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrG2iXX6RFs
guard, a lot of unpaid debts..." Ioseph's voice had an edge while saying785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodKEQdj9Kr
the last bit. Before anyone could do anything, Gob and grabbed Ioseph 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx1H6kF9mA
and quickly put a knife to his throat.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdK4zCEJcK
Before David could 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yiJY8MRXv
react, shouts came and boots hit the ground as soldiers emerged from the785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuWZnTmlgD
league ship. All the guns were aimed at the group of four. A soldier, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlqZqfPDDr
most likely the leader judging by his hat and emblems on the shoulder, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwJec9gkDb
approached Gob, slowly. "Put down your knife and you have my word you, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA0pH5g6RM
or your companions, won't come to any harm" Gob, just pushed the knife 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Kz542GO64
deeper into Ioseph's throat, drawing blood, as his answer785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG93OEsHTwR
The captains facial 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8vzhmTh4x
expression didn't change and he kept his gun, steadily, aimed at Gob. 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0uBWPaYox
"Put it down." David was getting a bit anxious, the rest of the soldiers785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMIdUecLWG
were circling them and neither David nor Angela had any weapons.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKfckkTkoW
"Enough of this!" 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPXzYHOy0r
Another figure disembarked from the ship. Before David could take any of785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPWXjPw84p
the newcomers features, a ball of hot appeared in the air and flew 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROKC0KcmmJ
towards them.785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6FQYFLZP7
David felt himself flung785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2XEj5nwzq
into the air. Landing face first on the scorched ground. Ears ringing, 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8IdsJ8JlE
eyes confused, ash and smoke around him. He saw Angela's body flung to 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMvqgfuJmO
the other side, unmoving. David wasn't sure if she was still alive or 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Rb4WKXX5T
not. The last thing David saw was Gob getting up and the soldiers 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6KOnNxT0l
subduing him, knocking him out with their rifles, as darkness finally 785Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihLKGNGzp4
overwhelmed him.
