《The Journey Of A Reluctant King》Fight !?
Advertisement
Running through the dark tunnel i couldn't see two feet in front of me. The only thing that reassured me that Sam was still in front of me was the fact i could hear him running. We quickly saw light and made it out of the tunnel. We looked like we were in the forest. I don't know how because we were in the middle of town and the tunnel wasn't that long. Vion rushed ahead and i didn't have time to think about it. Anxious that someone would appear behind me at a moment's notice, I ran faster than i ever had before we stopped in front of a tree. I opened my mouth to start shouting at our sudden stop because of the stress. Then she pushed a button and a door appeared in the tree all three of us rushed in and the door closed behind us.
" I'm assuming you have a plan to get out of here " i say to vion who is fiddling with a computer
"Sort of see after my cover got blown i had planned on leaving you two to your fates with a little message of warning. But after i saw how your friend can handle himself i figured your my best bet out of here so you need me as much as i need you. My plan is to set off a bomb and with that distraction get to the ship. Right now we are in the park right in the middel of the city if we blow some stupid trees up they will come running to save them we can use that and get to the ship "
So the man eating people are environmentalists great at least we can use it to our advantage
" I hope you know how to make a bomb " i said because i surley didn't and neither did Sam he can take one apart but not build one.

" i don't need to i already have one " she pulls out this all black box made out of gallirum
" Where did you get that ? It's a military grade bomb" Said Sam
" I stole it, yes from your people in that big black building "
" Why did our people bring that here anyway " i ask sam
" it's protocole if the people on the planet were to ever rebel and we couldn't handle it we were to destroy all of our existing buildings"
"We do have one problem tho this divice can only be activated by one of your kind i was planning on kidnapping that dude at the front desk and using the bomb on some major goverment building but now we need him to fly the ship " vion looked at the two of us hoping one of us would volunteer on a suicide mission. Before i could say how insane this plan was Sam stepped up and grabed the bomb.
" What do you think you are doing ! You are not about to go get yourself killed ! '' I shouted at him with panic on my face.
"My mission is to make sure you are safe only one of our kind can activate the bomb "
" The bomb probably has secondary saftey measures you probably aren't authorised to activate it "
He looked at the bomb and started touching the arming sequence and as i thought it come up with an authorisation requierment a biometric scan was necessary . The bomb scaned Sam then started flashing red and turned its self off
I let out a sigh of relief that means he can't use the bomb
Zion then grabs the bomb from Sam's hand and pushes it infront of me.
" You try " she says.

I pick up the bomb and do the same thing i saw Sam do, it starts to scan me and then it flashes green and a countdown appears on the screen. My heart drops . Sam grabs the bomb from my hands and shuts it down.we stare at each other in silence for a minute not sure what to do this was basically a suicide misson. Zion was the first to speak
" Great you can activte the bomb on this side of the park " she said pointing at the map on the screen "give it a 5 min countdown and make you're way here, me and your freind will be waiting around the dock when the explosion goes off we run in get the ship , spin round and pick you up simple "
I look at Sam, i know i can't let him die for me. I make my decision. I am going to do this and with a little luck i make it out alive.
" You aren't going to let me do it are you, you can activate the bomb and set a 10 min timer. I can place it, you can get the ship " Sam said to me with a look of worry i had never seen before on his face. I can't let him do this, i know this is the best option. Placing the bomb should be the easy part in theroy, getting the ship will be hard since the fire will draw some of them out. But i'm guessing there will be some left behind to guard the dock. I know i won't be able to fight my way past and steal the ship so this is the best chance we all have at making it out.
"This is the best plan and you know it. I know it's your job to protect me but by getting the ship you are giving us all the best chance at survival " i said to sam giving him a reassuring smile like he always did for me.
" I guess there is no convincing you then. We should get going before they find us " He walks up to me grabs me, and hugs me tightly he says " If you get yourself killed i will bring you back to kill you myself got it" i chuckle " don't worry just make sure you save me a spot on that ship" i say.
Sam hands me a gun when we get outside. I don't know where he got it from but I'm not asking any questions. I give him a nod as thanks and we depart our separate ways. Here's hoping i don't get myself killed.
