32 New Bloods! (2/2)

”Have you already given up soldier?” Charles said with a stern voice.

”Sorry Captain,it's not like I want to leave but I'm worried about my family. I at least wants to know what's their current status” Isaac said worried and sad.

The others were angry at Isaac for leaving them hanging but there are also who tried to persuade him to just stay with them and they can look for their families together but Isaac remained firm on his decision, he knows that his chances of reaching and finding his family is higher if he joins Leo and manages to convince him to help him look for them.

The Captain didn't say anything and just sighed helpless ”Enough! If there are others who also want to leave step out now!”

The soldiers remained firm but sadly two more soldiers step out as they decided to follow Isaac.

”Thank you Captain and everyone, farewell and stay alive!” the lieutenant gave a salute with his eyes red from holding his tears and other two followed suit.

The Captain put his hand in a salute and said ”First Lieutenant Isaac Smith, Private First Class James Arthur, Corporal Edward Jones as your commanding officer I'm now stripping you all of your responsibilities along with your Ranks! You're all dismissed!” after he said those words and slowly put down his hand and turned his back towards them.

The others also gave their salute to their former comrades.

Isaac and the other two tried to hand back their guns but they were flatly refused.

Isaac looked at them and said ”Farewell brothers, I hope the next time we meet, you guys are still alive and kicking” he lowered his hand and hastily ran towards where Leo is waiting for them.

”Farewell Brothers, Be safe!”

”Farewell Brothers, Look after yourselves!”

”Farewell!”

”Later Brothers!”

The soldiers gave their goodbyes as he looked at their backs emotionally.

A few seconds of silence later…

”Sir, what are your orders?” one of the soldiers asked.

”Now that we're outside, let's go and collect supplies, move out!”

”You heard the captain, move, move, move!” all of them hurriedly rode their tanks as they slowly disappeared in the distance with their futures unknown.

”So you guys have decided to follow me instead, eh?” Leo disabled his helmet and smiled towards his three new recruits.

The three of them were surprised that the person inside the Armor was actually so young but the three of them immediately woke from their daze and said at the same time ”Yes sir, please take care of us from now on!”

”Good! From now on, call me Boss instead! Let's go!” Leo smiled wide and his face immediately turned serious as walked back to the rest with the three addition to the group in tow.
