Chapter 231: Cheat Death (Part 2)
John's perspective
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?". - According to the way Hoster said to me, and the way Sherry and he was dressing. Hmmm... I guess they're in a big trouble
"Stella and that old man have overtaken my throne for a while right now...". "In there, they're having a meeting with officials, talking about the loss of Veta". "Do not step in". - Hoster shortly got his hands away from me
"What?". - My wife was quite bewildered when she heard the news
"The coup occurred for a while, Your Highness". "Both of us managed to get back here without being caught". "So lucky when you two haven't stepped in there". - Sherry spoke to us
"Wait wait wait wait, what?". - Shera was more bewildered
"That means... the excuse for not having enough time to gather the troops to Veta... was from both of 'em?".
"Nod".
"It's not good at all". - My wife later covered her face, worried about her homeland
"Sherry, don't you think it's now the good time to retake it?". - All of sudden, Hoster asked Sherry
"Uhh...". "Your Majesty?".
"My brother-in-law is now in front of us, my little sister too". "Even you're here with me too". "Look, the four of us will surely change the table". "Head in there, and accuse that whore and that old man of stealing my throne". "Sounds good? It's surely gonna work". "Fo-".
"That's bullshit, Your Majesty".
"Huh...?". "You dare to against your King? You think my words are not wise as yours?!". - Hoster approached me, saying a bit loudly as if he was very frustrated
"Your Majesty, low your voice down...". "Shhh...". - Sherry glanced around the hallway and the pillars while reminding Hoster
Despite getting mad at me, Hoster stays silent as he heard Sherry's reminder. Right at this time, my wife holds my hand and shows me to be as worried as Sherry. However... I don't know what they're worried about, it seems invisible.
"What do you mean, Advisor Sherry?". - My wife asked her
"They're holding the meeting in the courtroom". "Guards are now gathering there, very large". "Please keep your voice down, don't wake their alert...". - Sherry glanced around for a few more seconds before returning to look at us
"Your Majesty, please hear me, carefully". - Later she asked Hoster to speak with her
"I know... you're not pleasant to see somehow who's against your words". "But I'll explain to you why it won't work".
To me, honestly Hoster is just an ignorant who wants to make a step to the sky instead of making the long steps. Because of that, his impatient and ignorance always brings trouble to him. However... Hoster is a true tyrant, a ruthless... despite his inexperienced ruling time.
"If we get in there right now, we'll get caught and be executed sooner or later". "Think it carefully, Your Majesty... both of 'em couped us without any struggles, we could've been dead without the Goddess".
"Ummm... what do you mean?". - Shera asked Sherry, I also had that same question
"I'll explain later, Your Highness". - Sherry shortly grabbed Hoster's shoulders, trying to convince him
"From the start, puppets, spies and the clean have been mixed in the Palace". "Those officials, you cannot trust anyone... and their honesty is beyond your control".
"And... look at you right now, Your Majesty". "Look how dirty you and I are". "Wearing this dirty, no one is gonna listen to us".
"Previously we were alone, now we have Her Highness and your brother-in-law". "Follow them, Your Majesty".
Hearing Sherry's words, Hoster doesn't say anything but just holds her hand and approaches me. Later, he glances at me, as if to order me to do for him something.
"I almost forgot this...". "How did you two get in here?".
"By the backyard, Your Majesty".
"I saw something very blurred, could be a creature". "It made strong wind while floating in the sky, then disappeared". "If you two were infiltrating from the backyard, you two must've seen it, haven't you?".
Alright, seems like Hoster had seen the UH - 1 Helicopter that we used to sneak into this Palace's backyard. Despite saying it was in "stealth mode", the chopper itself doesn't seem to be invisible completely in their eyes.
Hmmm... but at least the Demon Kingdom's military is better than our United States' when their "stealth technology" does make things nearly unseen by eyes. Unlike making them invisible before the radar system.
"We came in by using that "creature", Your Majesty".
"What?". - Both of them were confused when they heard the story
"I'll tell you when we get back to the yard". "Now tell me further about the details of the coup". "I'll take point". - After speaking to Hoster, I turned my eyes in the direction which led to the yard, slowly heading there
"We haven't called 'em yet, John". - My wife reminded me while holding my hand and walking alongside me
"Nod". "Advisor, text Sarah". "Tell them to return to pick us up, over".
"Roger".
I hope that UH - 1 Helicopter will be able to hold 14 people alongside our Alrotz military backpacks. The space inside the heli will surely be oversized, very cramped when it doesn't have a proper seat for that much of people.
From my knowledge, a UH - 1 Helicopter only has the seat for 13 people. Hmmm... I hope this chopper's size will be larger to share more space.
"I have some private things with my Advisor, I'll tell you later". - While walking behind us, Hoster and Sherry started whispering to each other as if they were having something important to discuss
About us, because this area is empty and unguarded so we're heading to the backyard without guard on. Walking next to my wife, I feel a bit hungry since I hadn't eaten much to regain my health before rappelling down from the chopper.
At least the enemy made me starved and dehydrated instead of torturing me by using force. However... I must regain my strength since Reimi needs to be rescued as soon as possible.
Ahhh... I forgot that some of my wife's ribs are currently broken after the battle at the border gate. How careless I am when I let her walk... I must carry Shera on my back.
"Shera". "Come here...". - I pulled my wife closer, later carried her on my back
"What are you doing, John?". - My wife was bewildered
"Your ribs broke, right?". "You shouldn't be walking around, stay somewhere to rest till you recover".
"Ummm... I'm more worried about you, John". "You're still hungry and thirsty, right?". - Yeah, I do hungry and thirsty. However, my wife's health is more important... I wish Reimi was here, because it would make me less nervous
But what she was saying earlier? How silly. Hmmm... I must let my wife have a proper seat on the heli to make her recover. Otherwise, it's not good for her recovery.
"My ribs have already been recovered, John".
"Huh?". - While carrying my wife on my back, I was quite surprised to hear her reply
"Those soldiers have one healer, he cured me".
"It's good...". "But for your safety, I'll keep carrying you".
"He cured me", my wife said. Hmmm... I know, it's very unreasonable when I get jealous because a medic soldier treated my wife's wound. I don't have the intention to thank him, or even a need to know about him... however, getting mad at him is very... unreasonable.
"What's wrong?". - My wife asked me worryingly when my face grumbled
"Nothing". - I must stop suspecting my wife, there's nothing suspicious about her since she's faithful and kindest. Honestly, I want to be with Shera till the end of my life, I love my wife the most!
But... seems like I cannot stop suspecting anybody. Maybe living in war for a long time has turned me become a man who suspects everything, even the people who treat me kindly are also "suspicious".
Or my childhood affected me? I cannot know if war affected me or if my childhood affected me in this personality. Maybe both caused this problem.
I must... stop it!
"I'm s-". "Hmmm...". - I was about to apologize to my wife but I stopped speaking in the last moments
Even when my wife's faithful and trustworthy, maybe I cannot stop suspecting her. She shouldn't know it, it'll make her hate me, I think so... some truths must be... untold.
"What's wrong?".
"Nothing".
Both of us keep walking till we reach the yard. Surprisingly, a figure of the helicopter appears before us despite it being just a blurred, unclear object previously. This chopper... must've landed here recently, I think.
"What the hell is that thing?". - I looked back and heard Hoster ask me with his nervousness
Yet, Sherry also has some cautiousness toward the green-colored UH - 1 Helicopter. Glancing at both of them for a while, I keep walking forward while carrying my wife on my back. Oh... Sarah crouches at the heli's door, as if to wait for me to board.
"What is that creature?!". - Hoster was quite cautious, he approached me from behind and kept asking me non-stop
"Your Majesty, please calm down". "That thing forged in metal". "That's just a machine, not a creature". - Sherry tried to calm Hoster down, although both of them were still cautious while approaching it from afar
I ignore them and keep walking till I reach the heli. The wind caused by the heli's rotating blade is very loud, it keeps blowing our hair and clothes up. Alright... I see that this heli is wider than a normal one in my world.
"The space will be oversized, Commander!". - Sarah said loud to me when I was putting my wife on the helicopter
"We'll deal with it later!". - After getting in the helicopter, I looked outside to watch Hoster and Sherry approaching it
I reach my hand to Sherry's hand, attempting to lift her on the helicopter. However, she shakes my hand away and gets in the chopper herself. Hmmm... this woman still hates me to the bone, that raping memory still haunting her till this day, I guess.
"You'll have to tell me about this, my brother-in-law!". - Hoster said to me when he grabbed my hand, waiting for me to lift him onto the heli
"The space is quite cramped!". "Talk about it when we have a safe zone to stay in!". - I must not let Hoster know that I raped his crush... otherwise, he would make me die without a place to burry
After thinking, I pull Hoster on the helicopter and later find myself a seat. Luckily that my wife holds for me a seat on the heli, so I manage to have a proper place to sit. About others... not so lucky because the heli is quite cramped when it's holding 14 people alongside 3 of our Alrotz military backpacks.
Despite staying in a cramped place, the UH - 1 Helicopter slowly floats up the sky, about to head somewhere.

Shera Rigen's perspective
(Real Rank: Crown Princess)
7:22 PM, December 16th, 1173
Turavan - No Man Zone
Six hours must've passed since we got out from the Palace's backyard. Currently, we're resting in our newly founded camp in a forest zone in No Man Zone - Turavan.
After boarding the helicopter, my husband and my brother kept arguing with each other for a long time. One wanted to prioritize Reimi's rescue, while one wanted to prioritize his throne's retaking plan. Needless to say, the heli was cramped and we were very headache to hear the argument of 'em.
At last, Lt. Rivia chose to land the helicopter somewhere safe and out of the warzone. Turavan was chosen since it's far from the war zones of other No Man Zone's areas.
After landing in this area, John asked my brother to tell the story of how he got couped. Of course, my brother and Advisor Sherry only told it to the two of us... because the story was quite... unbelievable, even to me.
According to my brother, he was thinking about scaring his adoptive father (The Prime Minister) and his wife (Queen Stella). Coincidentally, that old man was returning to the Palace after a long trip to Attenta Kingdom. While my sister-in-law was about to give birth to... the baby whose blood and flesh were hers, and my poor husband's.
Turned out that was a bad idea from the start. The Prime Minister was in rage after seeing his grandson get killed, he ordered the spies to come out and abducted both of 'em. Somehow, the Palace was full of spies and puppets, from the retainers to the officials.
They escorted my brother and Advisor Sherry deep inside a forest, later calling out assassins to kill 'em. According to my brother's words, Sherry and he died after getting burned alive by those men.
However... Goddess Katia was very kind. She showed up and resurrected them, recreating their blood and fleshes. Hmmm... that's my brother's cheat death story. However, it's hard for me to believe his words... despite suspecting my brother, my husband believed his story, just a little bit.
Alright... maybe I should return to say about the place we're staying in.
In this place, we set up a new camp for 3 hours when we arrived here. But due to a lack of materials, we couldn't build up a good camp properly. However, we managed to build up a camp. Despite the lack of things, it seems like we can have a good night here.
The decision of tonight's objective had been made by Rivia's group less than 10 minutes ago. From the night, her Spec Ops squad will raid the Palace, with the objective are to assassinating the Prime Minister and Queen Stella.
After assassinating those people, the squad will be evacuated by the UH - 1 Helicopter, back to the camp. From tomorrow's dawn, we'll search for Reimi's last recognized location and save her from danger.
Then we'll escort my brother to the Imperial Palace, to retake the throne. That's the plan for both sides, drawn by John, his subordinates, Lieutenant Rivia, my brother and Advisor Sherry.
Currently, I sitting before a hot bonfire. This time is night and it's quite cold this night, meaning the winter is having its progress. Hmmm... I only wear a blue dress, so it's quite cold, even when I'm sitting before a hot bonfire.
This site only has my husband and me staying here. Despite founding the camp together, we also divide the areas for others' privacy.
We're staying in the southwest, Sarah's group is staying in the southeast. About my brother and Sherry, they're in the northwest, and Rivia's group is in the center of the area, with their landed UH - 1 Helicopter.
Everyone must've been sleeping or at least resting by now, after going through a lot of things today. However, Rivia's Ranger group doesn't do that since they have a mission to finish tonight.
From the intel I know from my husband, they're refueling their helicopter, waiting for the time to do the mission. That means Rivia and her Ranger soldiers will have to wake the entire night to finish the objective. Poor these soldiers, they volunteer to help us... so we must treat them well.
Sitting before the hot bonfire for a while but still feeling cold, I get out of my stone seat immediately. Tonight's so cold, I must go to sleep now!
Wait a minute... should I turn off the fire before going to sleep beside my husband? Hmmm... I must put it out.
"Spurt! Spurt! Spurt! Spurt!". - I point my palm toward the campfire, later splashed out 4 waterballs to extinguish it
When the fire has been turned off, I look at the campfire one more time to make sure it has been turned off completely. To make sure, I splash a few more water drops on the smoking logs. Hmmm... seems like the fire has been put out completely.
Seeing there's nothing for me to worry about, I approach my sleeping husband and slowly lie next to him. Hmmm... to describe our sleeping area in the forest, it's quite simple. Not just simply, our sleeping materials are also forest as well, only natural things being used.
On the ground, we set dried leaves around the area to make a floor for us to put our bodies down when we want to sleep. About the things like bedsheets, we killed boars and cut off their hides, making them as our warm bedsheets.
About our pillows, some of us managed to find big flat stones to put on the ground. However, most of us have to sleep with our heads touching the ground instead of having a proper pillow.
Hmmm... to prevent ourselves from the sudden rain, we formed some wooden huts. Just simple. We put around the area the wooden sticks and used the animal's hides to put on, as a roof to cover us. We used the vines to tighten the sticks, also some other things we had done to set up this small camp.
Lying beside my husband, I put the boar bedsheet on my body to have warmth against the cold. Hmmm... I also hug my husband and close my eyes as well, I'm also tired of today's incidents.
"John... are you sleeping yet?". - While hugging my husband, I asked him to make sure he was sleeping completely
However, John doesn't reply to me at all. The way he's sleeping and the way he's breathing while sleeping, make me feel like he had been through a lot of trouble today... poor my husband.
Knowing he's tired, I hug my husband tighter while closing my eyes. Currently, I'm trying to have a good sleep, trying to get prepared for tomorrow's rescue. I hope Reimi's safe.
Today I've been through a lot of trouble too. My husband ruthlessly killed his own troops and left them to die, two sisters argued. My uncle's tragic death, my brother got couped. Especially, my homeland is now ruled by two impostors, under the forms of the "patriots" and my dear family members... so terrible.
I'll try to cope with other problems. However, my husband's sins need to be solved... I know killing is bad, and he killed those men with the excuse to "save me and his subordinates".
However, John killed soldiers, young men who had families and parents waiting for their return in the safe zone. Hmmm... more terrible, my husband even killed the refugees and accidentally killed the children when we were on the run from Veta.
Needless to say, his crimes need to be solved. I know John killed those people because he was worried, he was caring about my safety. However... I can forgive him, but he needs to know about his crimes. John needs to know about it, I must... find the way to solve it completely.
If I don't do anything, my husband's animal self will rise up again sooner or later. When it comes, he'll be out of control and harm anyone who is in his sight. That's what I thought... and I hope I can do something to cure my husband, also to make him not remake his mistakes.
"Shera?". - Surprisingly, my husband called me when I was hugging him tightly
"John?". - I was surprised to know John wasn't sleeping
"What's wrong?". - Without a reason, he got up instead of sleeping
After waking up, my husband holds his head while lowering his head. He sits on the leaves floor, later looks at the west side, staring at the space. Hmmm... my husband lacked sleep? He regretted killing those people so he couldn't sleep? What should I do?
"Ummm... please tell me what happened, John". - I gently approached my husband, slowly cuddled his face to make him calm down
John keeps silent, he covers his face by using his one hand as if he has some anxiety which is hard to tell. Knowing it's useless if I don't do anything, I hold my husband's hands to make him relieved.
"Nothing to be worried about... please tell me".
"Uhhh...". "Don't worry, Shera". "Sometimes it happens to me, I've got used to it for a long time".
"If you have problems, please say out to let me help you". - My husband doesn't want me to be worried about him but wants me to be happy. However, he doesn't know that I also want him to be happy too
"You were dreaming back those things, right?". "You killed people, you killed innocents and...". "I'm sorry, I mean...". - I held his hands tighter, asking John to calm down his nervousness
"I forgive you, John". "It's good when you are remorsed for doing bad things". "I won't mind it, I'll help you to not make those mistakes once again". "Everyone had gone through a lot of things today, so did we". "I'll keep you warm, let's go to sleep...". - Comforting my husband for a while, I was somehow relieved so I intended to ask him to go to bed with me
However, John doesn't lie on the ground to sleep as I do so I'm still worried. Thus, I get up and sit beside him once again, trying to hear him. John's face... it's showing he has some trouble. I'll do my best to help my husband!
"Shera... I cannot sleep". "Not because I have problems with those people". "It's bad".
"Eh?". - I was a bit confused when John said that
"I don't know when I have this feeling...". "But every time I kill... only my berserk, fear and excitement rise...". "From what time... I... don't have any feelings for those dead".
"You mean...?". "You're not regretting killing at all?".
"Nod...". "That's why I disgust myself because of that". "When... I don't remember when, but it's too long ago".
What should I do now? Honestly, I want to help my husband to overcome this.
"What made you into this, John?". "Please don't hate yourself, it only makes things worse, I'll help you...".
"It's hard to say...". - All of sudden, my husband gently put my hands away from him
"I don't know when... maybe my childhood, or my experiences in war made me become like this".
"Please let me know... I mean...". "If telling those stories can bring back...". "Sorry, I mean...". - I should know more about my husband's bad memories if I want to cure him completely
"Where to start?".
"Your very first... I mean your first time, killing". - I hope my husband will tell me, he tends to keep quiet about his childhood and his war time's experiences
"That time was in... Afghanistan, Kabul". "I hope I remember it right...".
"I was with my platoon, roaming around a new safe zone... and met a building". "That place wasn't cleared yet, the Taliban shot us and... my buddies died...". "My leader, pushed me in that place... and fled, I was alone going there".
"Later I gunned down a kid... he was just... 13 or 14, or smaller than that".
"You killed a child, John?". - What the hell he was telling me about?
"That kid was a soldier, a Taliban...". "Just a kid...".
"My feeling that time was very... it's hard to say". "Many feelings mixed with, but I only remembered that... I vomited a lot". - Then my husband wasn't that monster in the past, killings made him become something terrible
"That's enough, John". "I got it, I'll help you, alright?". - Later I hugged John tightly, trying to find a way to cure him completely
Hmmm... my husband had been through many bad things in his life. I assume his animal self has been developed through his bad experiences, so I... must do something to help John.
"I hope you won't hate me, Shera". "I'm sorry...".
"No, I'm not". "C'mon, everything will be alright". - To calm my husband down, I hugged him as tight as possible
This process takes time, but I'll do my best to cure my husband. However... this time is dark, and we need to rest well to prepare for Reimi's tomorrow rescue. Ummm... hope that she's still alright.
"If you cannot sleep well, please hug me tight till you can sleep". "Hmmm...". - Talking to my husband for a while, I thought of an idea
"Tap! Tap!". "Here, come here". "My thighs are very soft, lie on them to sleep". - Slowly I kneeled on the ground, tapping my thighs while asking my husband to lie on them to make him happy a nice sleep
"You'll get cold, Shera".
"I'll be okay". "When you fall asleep, I'll put you down and sleep with you". "Don't worry, lie on my thighs, John...".
Hmmm... my husband's now showing his grumbling face because of being over-worried about me. Not good at all. Must do something, I must do something to give him a good sleep, hmmm. Alright, I know.
"Listen to me, John". "Come here, don't make me angry...". - I slowly grabbed John's nape, later got closer to my husband
"Kiss...". "Feel better...? Please sleep, we have things to do tomorrow, you know?". - After giving my husband a sweet kiss, I asked him to go to bed
"I'll do my best to help you, John". "Right now, you have to sleep to make yourself have enough energy for both your mind and your body". "If you cannot sleep well, hug me, kiss me and... giggles...". "Do anything, to make you pleased and sleep well...".
"I'm not in the mood, Shera". "Stop joking...". - Seems like this situation is more serious than I thought
"Sorry, John... I just w-".
"Princess! John! Are you two here...?". - All of sudden, I was startled when I heard Sarah's voice calling us
Our privacy time has been disturbed by a troublemaker, my husband's subordinate. How the hell could she come here this late? She can be seen crawling toward our campsite silently. Shortly when she arrives, she crouches and moves till she reaches us.
"Sorry you two". "May I... sleep with you two tonight?".
"Huh?". - She dares to ask me... that she would like to sleep next to my husband and me, huh?!!!
I must calm down a little bit. Hmmm... of course, I'm quite jealous when another woman is going to sleep beside my husband. But at first... I must know the reason why she asked me for that permission.
"Sorry if I disturbed you two".
"Why?". - I asked Sarah
"My sis keeps doing strange stuff with me... so I left her". "She's sleeping by now, so she won't know I'm here". "She's very strange these days, please let me stay here... just tonight".
"I don't think it's a good idea, Sarah". "Also... we need privacy, John's unwell...".
"Ohh... sorry to hear that". - Apologizing to us, Sarah bowed before turning around. She shortly formed her crawling stance, slowly crawled away from us
"Oh... I forgot this". - All of sudden, she turned around and glanced at my husband
"Commander... I know... many bad things happened today". "You did bad things... I don't want to comment about this but...". "Please don't be anxious by keeping those regret feelings in your mind...". "Things had happened after all... so there's pointless to keep those bad memories". "I forgive you...".
"However... it doesn't mean you can forget what you committed this morning". "You did many wrong things, Commander". "I don't want to hate anyone... and I don't want to be hated either". - Done explaining to my husband, Sarah started crawling away from us
"Oyasumi (Good night)". - Before she got away from our sight, she spoke up a strange word... what did it mean?
After she has gone far from our sight, I return to look at my husband. Somehow... as if he has been relieved a bit after hearing Sarah's forgiveness, John smiles.
"What's wrong?". - I asked John while approaching him
"Innocents like her should be preserved...". "Hmmm... I'm sorry for making you worried, Shera". "I will... never forget what I had done, and I won't try to... hide away from it".
"Nod! Nod!". - I nodded twice toward my husband. It's so good when he can be happy again, I'm very glad to know
When I was about to kiss my husband again to ask him to go to sleep, the clapping sounds from the UH - 1 Helicopter could be heard sounding loud. Both of us are surrounded by our curiosity, looking at each other without knowing what to do next.
"They are... going to...?". - I asked John while pointing my finger in the direction of the landed helicopter
"C'mon, with me". - My husband held my hand, both of us started getting out of our campsite to approach the helipad
We step out from the high ground to approach the flat field, away from us just about 50 meters. From there, we can see the heli's blade rotating despite the darkness covering the area we're looking at.
Both of us keep walking till we reach the helicopter completely. From our sight, five DKA Ranger operatives are boarding the chopper. However, one soldier seems to be staying, sitting on the trees nearby. Hmmm... somehow he doesn't join others to do the mission.
"Sir, Your Highness!". "Have a good night, we're going to finish the objective!". - Lt. Rivia spoke loudly to us, she had to louder her voice since she was standing nearby the loud blowing helicopter's blade
"You intend to go this soon?!". - My husband asked her
"Yes, Sir!". "We want to make sure we'll be trustworthy enough to you!". "From the future, you'll have to head to Zaira so we want to make sure we'll have a good time with each other!".
"What's about the fuel?!!!".
"Three fuel engines of the chopper are now fully charged, Sir!". "But we'll leave Sompo here! He'll be overworked if he keeps going with us after using all of his magic to charge those fuel things!". - While talking to us, Rivia pointed to the Ranger soldier who was resting in the big tree
Both of us don't have anything to say to Lieutenant Rivia anymore. So does she. Rivia looks at us for a few seconds before looking at the helicopter's door, she boards the chopper after that.
"Ohhh... what is happening?!". - Sarah must've recently noticed the helicopter's movement, she gathered here to see it
The UH - 1 Helicopter slowly floats up the sky while its blade rotating impact is blowing the ground, our hair and our clothes. When it reaches the sky at a certain distance, the helicopter rotates to the east side.
It flies away from our area and shortly be covered and vanished by the darkness of the winter night. Done staring at the helicopter, my husband holds my hand tighter, as if to ask me to do something.
"Hmmm?". - I looked at John, showing my husband my questioning face
"We need to sleep well tonight, Shera". "Reimi's waiting for us...".
"Nod". "We'll save her soon". - Both of us grabbed our hands, slowly walking back to our campsite
"The heli just had gone, Commander". "What they're doing?". - Instead of returning to her place, Sarah followed us to ask us
"They're working on the 1st objective, Sarah...". "By the way, go to bed, we have things to do tomorrow".
"Ok...". "Our ammunition is about to run out all, Commander". "What shoul-".
"We'll deal with it later". "Make sure we won't waste our ammo".
"Roger". - Done speaking to us, Sarah walked back to her campsite to sleep beside her older sister
I keep my eyes away from Sarah, later continue walking with my husband. Shortly... I notice that John's a bit weird than usual. He keeps staring at my brother's campsite, even though it's not in his sight yet.
"He should've died by now... cheat death, huh?". "Fuck Katia". - My husband kept whispering to himself, later spoke out a word as if he was swearing at someone
However, I don't mind his words at all. Both of us hold our hands, returning to our campsite, purposing to have a good night together.
