"
Same day. Later.
We had locked Rendall into the barn.
Daryl took it as his job to get him to talk.
And now he was beating the crap out of Rendall.
I was just sitting there watching him.
Daryl hit him so hard the chair flew to the side.
Rendall spit blood and cried out"i told you-"
Daryl growled „You said no shit!"
Rednall cried out "barely knew these guys. i met them on the road. "
Daryl pulled his knife out "how many were in your group?"
Rendall shook his head with wide eyes "no. no. no. no. no. come on, man "
Daryl "How many?!"
Rendall "30..30 guys"
Daryl "Where?"
Rendall shook his head "it was never more than a night"
Daryl held the knife on Rendall's leg wound "explain? Planning on staying local?"
Rendall shrugged, sobbing"i don't know. They left me behind."
I sighed, annoyed "Just answer his questions, man, and you won't get hurt"
Rendall begged "come on, guys!"
Daryl "I'll start real slow first and later i'm just gonna rip it off"
I stood up and walked to them.
Rendall "okay! Okay!. They have weapons, stuff, automatics but I didn't do anything"
Daryl "Your guys were shooting my boys, trying to take this farm. You just went along for the ride? Try to tell me you're innocent?!"
Rendall nodded "yes! These people took me in. not just guys..a while group of them. Men and woman.', kids too just like you people. Thought i had a better chance with them, you know?. But we go out.. Just the men..one night we found this little campsite. A man with two daughters, and another girl. Teenagers, really young, really cute."
My eyes widened.
He was in that group?
Rendall "their father had a night watch and these guys they...and they kept killing afterwards. They just made him watch. His daughters just left him there. No, no but i didn't touch them girls. No, i swear!. "

I yelled "Daryl! Stop!"
He began to kick Rendall.
I grabbed his shoulder "please! Hey!"
He looked at me.
I grabbed his hand and pulled him out with me.
Daryl "What now? hm?"
Me "I know this gang"
Daryl raised an eyebrow "say that again?"
I took a deep breath "I was the other girl. "
Daryl looked even more angrier "What?"
Me "I escaped that night. I was strolling through the woods, running away from them, till you found me nights later"
Daryl's hand grabbed my hand tighter "did they touch you?"
I shook my head "I ran away when I realized what they wanted"
Daryl nodded. He was still pissed.
Me "He was just watching. Doing nothing"
He nodded "Then we can tell the others"
My jaw dropped and i shook my head "no. no. no. no"
Daryl raised an eyebrow, confused "why not?"
Me "They can't know"
Daryl "and why not?"
Me "Because i don't want them to know, ok?"
Daryl "What happened out there yesterday? You been acting strange since you guys came back"
I sighed "Daryl"
Daryl eyed me "Something happened with Shane ?"
I sighed.
Daryl "Kendall?"
Me "he kinda raised his hand at me"
Daryl clenched his jaw "What?"
Me "I told him to shut up and many other things and then he lost it. Dad pushed him off before he could hit me"
Daryl nodded "alright"
He let go of my hand and we walked back to the others "the boy there got a gang. 30 men."
Me "Bastards who aren't looking for friends."
Daryl "if they walk through here, we boys are dead and our women..they gonna wish they were"
Carol "What did you do?"
She looked at his knuckles which were bloody.
Daryl shrugged "we just had a little chat"
Dad shook his head "no one goes near this guy"
Me "What are you going to do, dad?"

Dad sighed "we have no choice. He's a threat. We have to eliminate the threat"
Dale "So you just gonna kill him?"
I sighed „Dad. "
Dad "I'll do it today. "
Daryl looked at me and nodded.
I rolled my eyes.
Dad started to walk away.
Dale followed him.
A while later.
I opened the barn door.
Rendall jerked back.
I walked inside and kneeled down in front of him" listen here, you little shit, I don't trust you."
Rendall asked confused "You look familiar. Do i know you?"
Me "I'm Kendall"
His eyes went wide "You?"
I nodded "Just because you didn't touch the girls doesn't mean you're innocent. "
Rendall pleaded "Just let me go, please. You owe me that"
I punched him "i don't owe you shit. "
Rendall "come on, girl, please"
I kicked him again and growled "i should kill you right here, right now !"
Suddenly we heard a voice "do it"
I looked up and my jaw dropped.
Carl.
I yelled "Carl! Get the hell out of here!"
Carl shook his head.
I warned "Carl!"
He groaned and got down. I grabbed his shoulder and walked out with him. Shane stood outside eating a peach. Trying to hide his smirk.
I looked at Carl „You are never ever going in there again, get that?"
He nodded.
Me "Now Go"
Then he walked away.
I looked at Shane and raised an eyebrow "I dare you"
Shane held his hand up and walked away.
------
Dale came to me. I was sitting on a fallen tree.
Me "What's up?"
Dale sat down next to me "i had a little chat with Daryl."
I raised an eyebrow "he told you?"
Dale nodded.
I sighed "Damn it, Daryl"
Dale "He said they never touched you. He is innocent, Ken"
I scoffed "and just because he didn't touch me or the girls makes him innocent? He didn't stop them either, alright? He just watched"
Dale looked down.
I stood up and walked away.
-------.
Everyone was in the house. Voting. I was sitting outside on the porch. I saw Carl walking past me inside. He had something on his back in his pants. Looked like a gun. I followed him. Everyone looked at us.
Carl then just walked upstairs.
I followed him "Bro!"
He ignored me.
Me "Carl!"
He looked at me.
I held my hand out "Hand it over"
Carl asked confused "hand over what?"
I raised an eyebrow.
Carl sighed and handed the gun over to me.
Me "Who gave it to you? Was it Shane?"
He shook his head.
Me "who then?"
Carl "nobody"
I raised an eyebrow "From who did you steal it?"
Carl looked down "Daryl"
I sighed "Why? Because of Rendall?"
Carl "i heard everything, Ken. "
I shook my head "let the adults deal with this, okay?"
He nodded "Daryl will kill me"
I sighed annoyed "he won't. I'll give him the gun"
He nodded.
Night.
Daryl, Dad, Shane and i were in the barn. We covered Rendall's eyes and we surrounded him. Dad aimed with the gun at his head.
I looked around.
Rendall was begging for his life.
Suddenly i saw Carl standing in the door.
Me "Dad"
He looked at me.
Carl "do it, Dad"
He looked at Carl. Shocked.
Carl "Do it"
Shane was pissed off and lead Carl outside.
Dad "take him away. Take him away"
Daryl grabbed Rendall "Get up"
They walked out. I followed them.
Daryl chained Rendall to the bars.
Me "D-"
Suddenly we heard a scream. Dale.
Me "Dale"
Daryl and i ran to the direction. A walker was attacking Dale out on the field.
Everyone was running to him.
Me "Dale!"
Daryl threw himself on the Walker and pushed him off Daryl. I took my sword out and rammed it in the walker's eye.
Dale's stomach was open, blood and organs slipping out.
I put a hand over my mouth shocked"oh my god"
Dad kneeled down next to him "get Hershel. Dale, hold on, man. come on"
I shook my head and looked at Daryl "Daryl"
He looked at me. He knew what had to be done.
Hershel came "What happened?"
Dad "What can we do?"
Andrea "he is suffering"
Dad took his gun out and aimed it at Dale.
He couldn't do it.
Daryl pushed the gun away.
Andrea, Carl and the others were crying.
I hugged Dad.
Daryl aimed the gun at Dale's head "Sorry, brother"

Small Pond
In a world without systems, levels, or any standard power levels, Faust is a naturally skeptical person who always asks questions first and accepts after he gets confirmation. A lot of it. With some information unknown to the reader, represented as [?], Faust is left to discover who kidnapped him, where he is, if magic exists, and what to do while the reader silently observes him. And as for the YOU dear reader, I'll need your help choosing some things... Small Pond isn't meant to be a high-paced action light novel, but instead, there's a greater focus on world and character building in order to create a greater narrative. Expect the unexpected in this story ;) The release schedule will be paused, for now, I'm going to try and spend some time rethinking the intro and work on school.

The Czarina's Buccaneer
RELEASES EVERY MONDAY AT 18:30 CST ----- After suffering the torments of slavery, the destruction of his nation, and the massacre of his band of brothers, Rodion Kazansky craves revenge and yearns for the freedom owed to him as a proud Cossack. A lost horse and a chance meeting with the Catherine the Great set him off on a journey that will take him from the steppes of the Crimea to the beaches of the Gold Coast of Africa and back again. There he will face British slavers, pirates, and the ghosts of his past to become the bane of his enemies as the Czarina's Buccaneer. ----- DISCLAIMER: This novel acknowledges the fact that the Cossacks, and the Ukrainian people by extension, are unique and not simply a "different variety of Russians." The main character views the Russians as "moskal foreigners" and does not see himself as one. This also acknowledges the fact that the czarina deprived many of the Cossacks of their freedom, something that the main character resents.
