Talow stood reading the task he had been given. It had come from the general of the battalions and recruiting so he couldn't object. He read the scrawled out message again:
Task #1: Thursday, August 3 ****
Recruit 003579-Dains
آپ are to رپورٹ to the prison-holds this afternoon for your task of executing the captured victims from the villages of Dains and of the Bellator boy captured one دن after. Failure to comply will result in serious penalty including but not restricted to:
Demotion
Reassigned
Imprisoned
Death
Talow swallowed as he pushed open the large doors, behind were the prison-holds. The air held a stench of sweat and blood that lingered in one's throat. He forced himself not to gag as he walked towards the three soldiers standing around a large desk. The ڈیسک was occupied سے طرف کی a large man who was giving one boy the death stare.
“You brought this upon yourself, failure to follow the rules has its consequences.” The man's fingers were inched towards a drawer in the desk, the boy in سوال watched silently. “Do آپ remember what it was آپ did?” The man sat forward, a wicked grin on his face. The boy was sweating but made no اقدام to wipe his brow. “Speak!” He jolted and like a machine began to talk.
“I refused to follow my battalion into battle, leaving my brothers to the mercy of the Bellators.” His mouth clamped shut when he was done.
“Exactly.” The man at the ڈیسک had a look in his eye like a savage beast with its prey pinned under it. “And آپ know why I have to punish آپ for this. If everyone started abandoning mission we would have lost years ago. Is that what آپ want! To be ruled سے طرف کی self-loving Bellators! Well do you?” The man's face had turned red with rage as he leaned across the ڈیسک to shout in the traitor's face.
“No...I...um..” He was silenced سے طرف کی the man as he stood and gripped him سے طرف کی the throat.
“I new آپ were a چوہا the دن آپ were recruited.” He dropped him to the ground. “Take him away, I'll deal with him later.” Two of the soldiers who had been standing behind the boy now came آگے and grabbed him سے طرف کی the arms. His shouts and pleading could be heard as he was dragged down the hall. Talow watched them leave and was having سیکنڈ thoughts about this when the man noticed him.
“Quit cowering and get over here before I do the same to you.” Talow obeyed and stood before the man, handing his paper over. The man read it and sank back into his chair.
“So, آپ got the guts to do this یا are آپ going to chicken out like most of them?” Talow didn't say a word as the man walked around the ڈیسک and lead him down the same hall the soldiers had vanished down. Talow could see people locked behind bars, dirty and sad-looking as he passed keeping close to the officer. When they reach cell 23 Talow could see the villagers from Dains watching him as the door was unlocked. They backed into the corner as the officer entered the cell and grabbed a thin man with bloody nails and a bruise on his cheek. He dropped him in-front of Talow.
“Your choice. We can do this the quick way یا we can drag it out.” He pulled from his بیلٹ, پٹی a small gun and a club with nails poking out of it. Talow looked from the weapons to the man who was watching the floor, not meeting his eyes. Talow picked the gun, checking how many rounds it had left. One. Just enough to finish the job. He saw the officer watching him, waiting for him to pull the trigger and end this mans life in full view of the others. Talow knew this man which made all so much harder. As he aimed the gun and steadied his shaking finger on the trigger Talow was about to bury the bullet in the man's head when a shout from down the hall forced him to jerk his hand and shoot the floor اگلے to the man. The officer spun on his heel and stormed down the small ahllway, stopping at a cell containing one person. The boy who had attacked Talow in the clearing. The man کہا something to him before he started walking back to his ڈیسک to fins another bullet.
Talow took this opportunity to run down the hall and stop at the cell.
“Why did آپ do that?” He asked the boy behind the bars. The boy leaned casually against the wall, examining his nails.
“Do what?”
“Stop me from shooting that villager.” Talow was growing impatient knowing that his time was running out.
“I know آپ don't like killing, it's written all over your face.” The boy came closer. “You want to get out of here?” Talow nodded eagerly. “Next chance آپ get out of this place find the main road until آپ reach a place with two alley ways. Take the second, it'll lead آپ the jungle.” Talow made a mental note of what he was told.
“Why are آپ helping me?”
“Think of it as a favour.” Talow took a step back from him and started to turn away.
“Thank you...um..” He didn't even know his name to thank him properly.
“Name's Raza, now get out of here.” Raza shooed him away as the officer started coming back down the hall.
Talow found the entrance to HQ easy enough, it was getting out that would cause some problems. He waited around until he saw someone he knew.
“Nico, Cyle!”
“Hey Talow, what's up?” They stopped to talk to him, moving to a دیوار where they wouldn't be in the way.
“I was wondering if آپ guys could get the guards to open the doors since you've both got مزید seniority then me. I think I dropped something outside when we were coming back.” Cyle and Nico exchanged looks, not quite believing his story but they helped him anyway. When Talow was far enough away, he started to follow the directions Raza had دیا him, sure enough he found himself at the edge of the jungle. All he had to do was dive in there and he'd be ہوم free, but should he? Talow looked back at the city noticing the line of men coming down the main road. He still held the plans under his جیکٹ and he knew they were looking for him. Were they after the plans? Did they know he had escaped? All thinking came to late as UFS soldiers found him. Maybe if he talked to them they would see it from his point of view. He had the plans, all he had to do was دکھائیں them.

Thursday
Kyle is the worst boyfriend ever! The party ended with me in a coma. Apparently there was alcohol in my drink. I had an overdose and it almost killed me. Kyle swears he didn't do it. I want to believe him. I really want to. I know Kyle had done it because I know saw him poor something in there. At first I thought it was water یا something to make it sweeter. It wasn't water. I couldn't go to school today because they were pumping the alcohol out of my system یا something. I'm not entirely sure what happened. All I know is that for a couple if منٹ I was pronounced dead. My heartbeat soon started thumping again but I was in a coma. My parents were so worried. I thought for sure they would be dead from shock. Kyle is banned from coming near me. My dad implied that rule. My mom kept crying whenever she talked to me. All she could manage to get out of her mouth besides whimpers were muffled words. I don't think I'll be seeing Kyle for a while now.

What a change Such a dramatic change
Once I was small and ignored
Now I'm called when their bored
یا looking for a friend
To talk to till the end I use to be invisible
Now I feel invincible
They can't hurt me
Look at what I can be
This is new
Something almost true
That great feeling
Was somewhat appealing
But soon disappeared
Whenever I neared
Now I am small
No longer tall
Completely ignored
Always bored
It happened so fast Invisible in the past
Then became invincible
And immediately back to invisible
It changes everyday I don't know what to say
Maybe it won't stay the same
I'll be forever lame

Tuesday
The preps have got on my nerves for the last time. They decides to expose my crush on Kyle. How dare they? Who do they think they are? Their leader was like we all know that Laurie likes Kyle. U was all like please, I so don't. Then we got into this huge argument. Jennifer, L. J, and Tammie had my back though. Jennifer started trash talking their leader, Carly Louis, and they rest of her desperate followers. Kyle interjected and کہا that if I liked him then it wasn't any of their business. This is why I like the boy so much. After school when I was walking him from school, Kyle caught up with me. He told me that he thought those girls were cruel and should stay in their own business. I couldn't agree more. He whirled around suddenly and kissed me! I was utterly speechless. He started stuttering and then sprinted off in the other direction before I could say anything. Yep, that kiss was everything that I had imagined it would be but why do I feel like it was so wrong.
