1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyOCScL4hE
Davids relief didn't 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRroelPx8L
last long as he saw Gob slowly coming out of the water and joining him 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9WIb4Lexk
on the shore, barely looking tired, no in fact, taking a better look, he1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoeSaEginz
didn't even look tired. Gob pulled someone else from the water, someone1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFqIvUMfAX
who had it even worse than David. Her brown hair was plastered to her 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUVOZq3ZSY
head and face as she was reeking water and barely breathing. David would1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTKHQPYfAr
be lying if he said that he didn't feel a bit better knowing he was 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7Ca1wwAMW
better off than Angela.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyOtm2auMM
"Breathe slowly and calm1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveqOdgVzQM
down. It'll only be worse if you take quick breathes." Came Gobs calm 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk90EhrPrSx
voice as he was wringing his beard from the water. It did seem to have a1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pPi5RQ2wQ
bit of an effect on Angela as she visibly calmed down and her breathing1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwkFe8mFjs
got steadier.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHpGrGLUHG
"Useless." Gob said as 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqxRhIsawR
he inspected his musket and pistol, dropping them on the grassy shore, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfqBdLJjDY
but nodded as he took out his knife and examined the edge. "Well when 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi5ZJXa9Vt
you two are done we can start moving, we have places to be."1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CBSqdHd8o
After his conversation 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklrw3QXvU8
with Francesca, David knew where they had to be. David just wasn't sure 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGeA2dTJsM
if Francesca told Gob about their conversation so, he decided, it would 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqNt57UxVs
be best to keep quiet, lest he wanted to be tied up again.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kyBdCElSE
"Where...where to?" Came Angela's question with a rasp.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYrPhSFR6C
"To get new weapons and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvPdKM3I9b
find the others." Gob said, putting his knife back into his sheathe and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINDwUKKeN7
drying his shoes from any excess water.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7i5qaCgZ0
"Wai...wait. They might still be stuck in there! We..need to go back." Angela said, her voice slowly coming back.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJooh4JPX1g
"If they are then it's too late. Now come on let's go." Gob said, unflinching.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEMpPW92WT
"No!" Angela stood up 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMm0nMskij
and faced Gob. Which was impressive as Gob towered over her, he towered 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IePrc7jCd
over most people. "I will not abandon them They might be alive and..and I1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoAGNpJa5S
won't lose them." Gob didn't answer. He just glared at Angela until she1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R0pbTwhQp
averted her glaze. He nodded when she did so.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCo4KeF8jF
"If I could do anything 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHwySMmxuX
for them I would." Angela gave a weak nod to that. Gob grunted and began1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz61Nujpgc
walking. He kicked David, who was still enjoying the ground underneath 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIywksjhy1
him, for good measure as well. "As much as I hate it you're coming with 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83d7VDVYYx
us. Now get up."1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1R5jARvhy
David grumbled but got up. Not much else to do but follow the man with the plan, and the knife, and the murderous intent.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tdwGKDJqq
Thus, they began their 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0dOw1hP6o
journey, in silence except for the squeaks their clothes and shoes made.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxPMBPPvFi
David was miserable, with the sun slowly setting down he was barely 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zfmgJGDQb
able to see what's in front of him, barely being able to suppress a 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6YrmWk77n
shiver whenever there was a gust of wind. Angela was pretty much the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7etojLkpR9
same, except that she was also sullen and worried for her brothers. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnDLxUpTyc
David tried opening a conversation a few times but she just smiled 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACOHT7TOOH
weakly. David was confused why she either followed him or Gob instead of1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCgXTT9Fwz
following one of her brothers, but it didn't seem like she was up to 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdFpa7IEE5
answering that, no matter how much David prodded.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxE2nVHbxB
The only one not 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwlRj62PSB
affected by his current condition seemed to be Gob. He managed to avoid 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza65Ap1nX0
any loose branches or an uneven part of the mud, even his clothes didn't1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqqCWBTuJv
make any noise when walking. The only thing he really reacted to was 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKrF2EM7AA
gunfire, which could still be heard from the direction of their hideout.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqdpD7K2It
It was also the only thing that woke Angela from her stupor as whenever1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpdWfr3enV
it rang she immediately looked at the direction they walked from. But 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SycmBGKl1
even those stopped, whether because of distance or the fact that there 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46dVblZlPb
was no more fighting, David didn't know.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvIySNZTi1
David hoped that 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBhgQG1nxq
adrenaline would keep him going for a while, David wasn't sure how long 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyBNXGmDRX
they've been walking but with the blood pumping through his veins he 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvatGSCBpeS
felt like he could walk a few more days straight. Hoping didn't seem to 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrMjlYJFYW
work for David, never did really, as the adrenaline was wearing down. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUwfNUT55C
Slowing down more and more. Gob looked back and noticed David slowing 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRxl8u5TFi
down giving him a look of disdain, but then he looked at Angela who 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwUO8ItdeM
wasn't doing much better and sighted. "We can take a rest. Sit down, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2DLJzIGOo
I'll try finding some berries or anything for us to eat." 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Rmo9awkFf
David slouched to the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vKnqYPV6J
ground with a grateful sight while Angela sat down with her back to a 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvYapY2YTM
tree, hiding her head in her knees, as silent as she was during the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBVtSBHUGu
whole walk. David didn't care how devastated she felt, but if she wasn't1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s2VViqdlC
fully there with them they might get ambushed and David didn't survive 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu35JBD8dW7
so long just to have a teenage girl kill him because she was going 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgtsJlVe3S
through mood swings. "Hey, they're strong. Even Twitch, I'm sure they're1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFYw3y3K9q
fine and when we see them they'll be as cheery as ever." He called out 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlnYliAzJp
from his spot, not bothering to move closer to Angela1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDWReg5FFg
No answer. ~Oh hells, do1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1lt2Bitv4
we have another Rock on our hands? ~ David waited to see if he was 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFV3ElOElDq
going to get anything from her. Mostly because he didn't know what else 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK2f6eOt3m
he could say. After what felt like an eternity he heard...someone 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIMVrmXm6A
sniffling and saw Angela shake. With a suppressed sight David got up and1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTNLrpu3NP
sat beside Angela, he hovered his hand above her shoulder but decided 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDd9JY5oWC
against putting it on her.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsw4g42QJ3
"I...I should've been 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkk6OBZsLl
there. I should've been there when pa was shot, I should've been there 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIzT7j0fdi
now. Oh gods...oh gods...." She continued in that vain for a while 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81r61besWr
seemingly not aware of her surroundings or any words that came out of 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAoc0ulQtF
David's mouth.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h4lN5LXwm
"Why weren't you? Now, I1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpJvCy7GH4
mean, when the attack happened?" David asked anxiously, he wasn't the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmmWyckmc8
best when dealing with hysteric people. Again, no answer came, just more1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMiYD9WUiV
cries. David lost hope of ever getting an answer, but one finally came.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSOfka9rJ5
"It happened so fast. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGYdLNwrko
I've tried following them, but I lost track of them... No that's wrong, I1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAZo6CsPtU
could see them during the attack but I couldn't get to them. And when 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzAktLq6SN
everyone started retreating...oh god it was like a butchery. So when I 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmM7575r7L
saw Gob turning a corner I followed. I was scared...I was scared...oh 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZuemj43gd
gods I murdered them because I was scared." And then she began muttering1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUcBiIh5eG
to herself again1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfV1qST28nV
David struggled to find words, but thankfully Gob saved them from the awkward silence as he came back from his hunting trip.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1IP2Ih882
The mighty hunter 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZSnwqqIc5
managed to gather fruits and berries, apparently the fighting had scared1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjILJX2doWR
most of the animals away, and they couldn't make a fire so they were 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp25Uy4f16L
stuck being cold, miserable and hungry. Berries weren't the most 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlhGyzBuBA
fulfilling things to have on an empty stomach 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtruGtfN6r
Their respite didn't 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU5MhfwRs6
last long, and they were on their way soon after. Angela seemed to have 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw07LJZzKQW
calmed down, she still wasn't participating in conversations, but she 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1vo6Oe8qT
wasn't crying either and David counted that as a win. Even if Angela 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYRIp7inKq
wasn't paying attention to anything around her, David decided to trust 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7pBnleMSt
in Gobs awareness of the surroundings to protect them from any ambushes,1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWMOlYBXDY
he seemed to know where David was at all times, so he might as well put1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzijRerGxu
that skill to actual good use.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ySHna5QDN
Thankfully their walk 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYfcIMdUXc
didn't last long, moving through the overgrown bushes and trees they 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡba2DXtLOD5
reached the edge of the isle, looking down to the surface covered by 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIUBf0bFWc
clouds. It was told that if you'd look long enough over the edge you'd 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2V4XPQjrh
go crazy, as far as David could tell that was true. Everyone he flew 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4K8heDAGG
with was one degree of crazy or another, including David himself.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLxc7abTwO
Gob motioned for them to1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtZ5PCisAY
wait as he went back into the forest, David was about to start another 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVolkwMuex
awkward conversation with Angela, but Gob returned quite quickly. He 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsRKBdBrw3
didn't return alone though, he had a fly boat with him, which he 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDqqUIkqOq
conveniently carried on his shoulder.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPyUQPuQUy
Fly boats were made out 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh7s7rtt3g
of wood and had a ether engine on them. While smaller than ship engines,1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Kub9VdX5u
they managed to lift the boat and three or four people, with the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGdbIRG4sT
paddles being used to move while airborne. Movement was agonizingly slow1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVHSwpYaX3
on them as well as dangerous. Ether engines were basically bombs, even 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0LiberWUS
small ones. Ships had precautions for that, security equipment shield 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7ssYXaN37
from the worst of it, of course it mattered little in the end, but the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXiOMdbrZ8
boats didn't even pretend to have those measures. So, Gob was basically 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHTos3e6TT
carrying a bomb on his shoulders, with the same facial expression he ate1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYrhO1JZUH
or smiled. A frown.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAkYemQgRX
He put the boat down on 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86PhklVrwi
ground and activated the engine with a practiced motion. The engine 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ss8bUKvZe
started making a sound. Gob nodded, lifted the boat and made some more 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCyEqLL023
motions which made the boat stay at that height. David had seen some 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgG9g9PYiu
boats while serving on ships and he knew they had no way to actually 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhss4ot71Q
lift themselves up, only to float. Ships were the same, but with all the1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRAo1cZTZL
technology attached to the ship they were also able to lift themselves 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LJBl7CqXA
up. David moved his hand across his eyepatch and scar, the engine was 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6aovMyMH5
making his wounds ache.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3sVBfRjQo
Gob put the boat over 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SHUzZgQUx
the edge and jumped into it making the boat float down a bit but it came1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dvQA40i3M
back to its assigned height in moments. "Well come on, we don't have 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEhAIIIAdT
all day." David and Angela promptly followed, one more tentatively than 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpia219nSWf
the other. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdJwZIyi14
Gob handed David the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjWpK9NI3l
paddles and he knew better than to argue. There went a relaxing trip 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFU2YbR4GqE
over the bottomless skies with a bomb as his companion. Death seemed to 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpiYTS0wuJ
always just be one step either behind or ahead, David still couldn't 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj3X5aqCLW
decide which. ~There are worse fates than death~. David wholeheartedly 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhK4T7gpzm
believed this was definitely one of those fates.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHvpQ5Nj3h
All though David did 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zxbzK5JVi
grumble the boat itself moved quite fast. With both Gob and David 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifFVRDBwKe
paddling they made good time and soon enough they got their rhythm and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Qjbffy820
David's mind blanked out. He didn't even notice when they reached the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM7MtmL1Op
edge of the other isle, at the very leas not much time passed, judging 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhRj0uLPn5
by the sun.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzJfZ2yaTw
They all disembarked, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rIIyBpCBw
and Gob opened a trapdoor hiding the boat after disabling its engine.. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89VMHGG4t6
When all seemed to his liking he closed the door and hid it with some 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjLSSmjqGn
make shift ground and grass "We'll need to find a place to sleep. My 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtH34tRZSl
friends wanted to meet tomorrow so we'll need to find a safe spot." 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3cQCTU5e4
David had no idea what day it was or how long it's been since the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySq88OxvpO
attack, good thing Gob the human sized watch was on the job.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVCC5wztdv
"How do they manage to 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rPaQmCX1p
slip past the patrols?" David asked, it just seemed like they were 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mUWqttc2E
walking into a trap, especially after the attack. Gob kept walking and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ4TciCLor
it didn't look like he was going to answer, but at the end he relented. "1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPK93pmKkI
They have special...permission to be on any isles they want, as long as1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG4BeOziMO
it's a good reason no one will suspect them."1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Lzay2p18N
David nodded, the answer1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo3iN8KZn2
didn't ease his worries, but it was the only answer he had and not like1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5cNfWMfXk
he had much of a choice but to follow their glorious leader.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFJ3TPaSf8
One thing David noticed,1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzfxYEireD
during their walk, was that some of the shrubbery was more burned and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Le21tBUkI
drier on this isle. This wasn't so rare. Apparently when their ancestors1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabMedrkKon
were plunged into the skies they couldn't hope with the change of 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT77AIGU2Uj
weather. No rain or protection from the sun meant that many trees and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLknZuaLfhn
plants either caught fire or dried out. Mages had to think fast and some1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6bHYIIxcA
of the isles were luckier than others, with the mages making everything1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8jpyBpBcy
self-sustainable. Over time the forests adapted, and new seeds didn't 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dDEcybRBq
require rain to survive. The aftermath could still be seen on most 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYly5FpIO3
isles, especially on ones that rulers deemed inconsequential. Oh, what 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunvs5WO8Yp
things you learn while travelling with people from all flights of life.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6rehRle61
It made him remember 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyEnmL62qJ
life before meeting the rebels. Much more carefree, just flying, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ6btie8Je
gambling, sometimes betraying. A happier life, happier than walking 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzXTYMqeYD
around in the mud and cold at least. ~Happiness is for people who aren't1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMRMJjvCpW
damaged. The chosen few who get to enjoy it, while the rest just 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy7AoOmGtC
pretend to have it. ~ Indeed, happiness was something David could never 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXoOD4QOUL
feel or archieve. He could only pretend to feel it. David accepted that 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2cBZjyy0r
as part of his life, he wasn't sure when he did but he knew it happened a1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAm0QMNCQL
while ago.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMUDchMiy9
Just as previously they 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpeWVDv3Vp
walked in silence, with Gob in the lead pausing every so often to listen1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34PBlSs0b5
to his surroundings. Until reaching their next camping spot. On top of a1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYGHtTNk9S
hill with dried out yellow grass. Not a lot of trees surrounding them, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2x8Gp4ZDF
but only one way to get on top of the hill. Easy to defend and easy to 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL0VCCIIGo
get spotted if not careful. Gob went to go hunt and left David and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLmu66CnXQ
Angela on their own to set up camp. David was able to follow Gob, with 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsqRxSvQeg
his eyes, now that the colours of his uniform did not match the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgpOO2eR9C
surroundings, of course that didn't mean he could do it for long and 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYAjCyv4W1
sooner rather than later Gob disappeared from David's view.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmLlFa4vCC
David was apprehensive 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsmD5T9BEH
on starting a conversation with Angela, thus he just concentrated on 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ471R64YHQl
making his sleeping spot as comfortable as possible, while she sat with 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRDh5UEg3Z
her head down. It didn't take Gob long to come back with some food, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtVXnerqi1
berries and such again. It didn't look like he had any luck hunting. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhnDj2fHb1
Maybe he was just rubbish at it. That thought made David feel better.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEznocwvNIr
Before they all turned 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hHyMHufUi
to their respective spots on the ground Gob approached David. "You'll 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSeVgImP4o
take the second watch, I'll wake you." David just started to say 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy4aHYu78h
something, but Gob turned around and stalked away before any words could1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtSuwcywL1
be formed. Shrugging David laid down on the ground and contemplated how1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEK83B2KlL
far he and Gob came. ~Sure, and soon he'll let his guard down and will 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26DnxQ60gd
be an easy target~ David went to sleep imagining that sweet thought.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BIJ2hpVUm
Sadly the sweet dream 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgK3LHzVR7
turned into a nightmare, as he was rudely woken up by Gob, who 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kcA2GbzaH
immediately went away after kicking David awake. Rubbing his eyes David 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsRsAMWxEp
walked to a boulder which provided a good view of the only path up to 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bgKCzUFIv
the hill. He wasn't sure what he was actually supposed to do if imperial1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLrNUArCas
soldiers found them, wake everyone up so they'd be arrested in an 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡge54kRHK0P
orderly manner? Or pretend he's a huge bear? David contemplated on 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9ArMRwulS
making a roaring noise but quickly subdued that thought. Gob would 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3gOeNVNxw
probably kill him and the bear, imaginary or not.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HQQe043in
~Or maybe just hide yourself or betray them. Wouldn't be the first time. Not like they matter. ~ 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDmwSoTmKl
David shook his head and1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwmJL2uqzD
let his mind wander to more cheery thoughts and over time the sun came 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgJV81yMKJ
back shining light on all the yellowish grass. Slowly Angela and Gob 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKXDt9NQaq
joined David in the wake world. It was so nice and quiet without them 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydC0fJvl8Q
too.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vsGmOK761
They spent the morning 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnHFU4uWC0
in silence finishing all the berries; Gob was his usual gruff self. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGalWzQ8bOh
David was feeling tired and Angela was still grieving. ~What a fun 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYV3eJ1ZXn
crowd. ~1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnG9RBvkED
After they were all done1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspf8SxxjVl
their journey began anew. Surprisingly David felt positive about it, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESjlPKEaQ9
his clothes were finally dry, the sun was out and shining. He even 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡic0qFuUqNw
started to believe that it wasn't a trap they were walking into. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qwkJ9PGgW
Positivity all around.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo3zwZprBE
Soon they reached the 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEG9TCiACT6
meeting spot. A secluded edge of the isle, surrounded by dead and burned1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkAQUv0CzF
trees. There were people there already, a small crowd with a smaller 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmDCuyfwsY
ship floating above a crack. The aforementioned ship was flying league 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXY4PtXcnD
colours. That explained why they'd be able to go here without much 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDPUalhMMF
scrutiny. Some of the trading princes were rich enough to buy their own 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9HHaSTXpj
isles so bribing a few officials to look the other way wouldn't be too 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPtfTbi0Um
hard and as long as they weren't caught doing anything suspicious 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEbpZVKZ52
everyone won.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyTf64drMJ
Gob seemed to be pretty 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfxneVH8DO
tense, while still out of the view of the men he slid his knife out of 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtECPcGOC6B
the sheathe and hid it in his sleeve. Having finished his preparations 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQajy1CRdk
he made his way towards the group of people. Without further 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ7jJGtQvD
instructions from Gob, shrugging, David followed Gob, with Angela slowly1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uSrliZq6B
making her way behind David.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIuGFdq7dn
"Where's Lev?" Gob 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMJCHD6Fba
shouted from a distance. One of the men walked up and put his hands up 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrCGLbuAH8
in a cheerful manner. "Couldn't make it, friend. My name is Ioseph. Lev 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP46jcTXV61
told me everything. You are Gob, yes?"1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoJAJa33kH
Reaching the middle 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqJc9PjHFx
point the two men met and Gob carefully nodded. " Why not?" Ioseph 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzfhNarnSj
shrugged jovially. "Dangerous times, friend.A lot of pirates, a lot of 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxpqETwylo
guard, a lot of unpaid debts..." Ioseph's voice had an edge while saying1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlqlJzedQf
the last bit. Before anyone could do anything, Gob and grabbed Ioseph 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y6XfOV3TT
and quickly put a knife to his throat.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkX1qjQKIs
Before David could 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOyE4OB79I
react, shouts came and boots hit the ground as soldiers emerged from the1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlk9B4d3o4e
league ship. All the guns were aimed at the group of four. A soldier, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ld0CU9ocS
most likely the leader judging by his hat and emblems on the shoulder, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8et5TDypF
approached Gob, slowly. "Put down your knife and you have my word you, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7oUJwfWqJ
or your companions, won't come to any harm" Gob, just pushed the knife 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrM2f9BwjI
deeper into Ioseph's throat, drawing blood, as his answer1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wPLcHqWbW
The captains facial 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YI4ndoxJ1
expression didn't change and he kept his gun, steadily, aimed at Gob. 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcHVTO1QJk
"Put it down." David was getting a bit anxious, the rest of the soldiers1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqpk9MFS4I
were circling them and neither David nor Angela had any weapons.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oNflIsC8B
"Enough of this!" 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lMLIpgPfL
Another figure disembarked from the ship. Before David could take any of1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR84sShWMdH
the newcomers features, a ball of hot appeared in the air and flew 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhARhKCCZEN
towards them.1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RJBIxrLuy
David felt himself flung1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7SSK4gnrL
into the air. Landing face first on the scorched ground. Ears ringing, 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD8b05fu8Q
eyes confused, ash and smoke around him. He saw Angela's body flung to 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17IJMxxPLy
the other side, unmoving. David wasn't sure if she was still alive or 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx49nZd2Ia
not. The last thing David saw was Gob getting up and the soldiers 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOYzX79t1J
subduing him, knocking him out with their rifles, as darkness finally 1010Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GNPiVla9F
overwhelmed him.
