"Dong, Dong, Dong." A huge bell was sounded, yes this was Chester
hamming up the bell. The army rushed to where the bell sound was coming
from, the 20 people had a chance and rushed out for the woods, they were
heading to Natalie. Chester told then to go to that specific place, "Once you get
there, you will find Natalie. Tell her to get a red glass bottle from my bag and
throw it at the soldiers if they come towards you before I do. As for now I will
hold them off so you can escape." He said, the army people reached the place
where the sound was coming from and no one was there. Chester had already
left a few seconds ago and used the other route going to where these fellas were
coming from.
His heart skipped a bit! He was stunned! no survivors, damn it! this Drax
king is very cruel, all the men were killed, bodies laid down all over. He quit
looking for people and ran to his woman. Unluckily a soldier saw him, "There
is a man, catch him." He shouted, they immediately went on a chase, shouting
and insulting him while pursuing him. "Shit, I have been spotted!" He cursed
while running for his life, cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He was only a
few miles from the survivors.
"Naty! Throw the red battle, throw it now!" He screamed; behind him a
bunch of soldiers were closing up the gap. Their swords held up ready to chop
him to a hundred pieces, they were shouting and insulting him. Along the way,
Chester grabbed a stick with fire. Natalie through the bottle aiming at the
soldiers behind, Chester slowed down and turned around. His eyes narrowed
and he estimated where the bottle would land, he immediately threw the fire
stick in the direction of the bottle, the warriors were now a few feet away from
the landing bottle which brock upon hitting the ground and a strong red gas
mist erupted, by this time; Chester was sprinting and this time very fast with
all his mighty.
The fire stick reached the gas and a fierce roar erupted, the place exploded and
fire boomed. So fierce that it exerted a pressure that Caught up with Chester
sending him flying and hitting a tree near Natalie, he had no time to grasp in
pain, he rose up and got his bag. With a shout, he led the retreat and everyone
sprinted for the woods. The army warriors were all killed by this explosion,
burned to ashes. You should know that the fire went against them since the people who threw the bottle and the fire were opposite them. It was as if six
dragons breathed out fire at the same time in one direction.
Chester and his group were running for hours now, everyone looked
exhausted especially the elderly people and children. In their minds, the
warriors were just behind them in pursuit. They took the initiative to rest for a
while because someone would die running, Chester climbed a tall tree and
looked for any signs of being trailed. "Phew!" He sighed having seen that no
one was following them. After resting, "Brother Ches! Thank you so much for
saving us. Now I need to go and warn my relatives in the next village." A
middle-aged man spoke and left, each one spoke after one another and left till
only the two of them were left. Chester felt guilty at this time, he forgot to tell
them to carry a stick with fire meaning that they would have died even after
throwing the bottle, but he remained cool at least they would have died together
just like Romeo and Juliet, right?
"Let's head for Alim, will be there by tomorrow." He said with a serious
expression. These two walked cautiously and avoided public roads, after walking
for hours and the sun was about to set, Chester saw a small pool of clean water,
by this time almost all their water cans were empty. They walked towards the
pool and suddenly Chester froze, Natalie was startled; Chester's eyes looked at
the side without turning his head, three powerful arrows hit the ground just
Infront of him, if he hadn't stopped just now, both of them would be dead. From
the woods, three people emerged and they were armed, with one of them holding
a bow and some arrows. Yes, you guessed it right! These three guys were actually
Lucy, Luka and Lucian! You didn't even guess though.
"How dare you think of drinking water I saw first! Court death?" Luka sneered,
and yes! He was the one who shot those three arrows, Chester remained calm
and stood still, Natalie moved closer to Chester and held his hand tightly; Lucy
had a blank expression, Lucian sighed lowly but kept on walking to the water.
Luka looked at Chester up and down, "Boy who are you?" He grimly asked, a
smirk crept on his face. By this time, Lucy and Lucian were drinking water from
their cans after fetching it from the pool, "Boy! Are you deaf? Don't you have
ears? Am asking you, who are you?" Luka snorted, a faint irritating smile on his
