9 Its Time To Kill Or To Be Killed (1/2)
”They said we were hiding 5 soldiers in our village. And they claimed we were lying after they destroyed our whole village” The official of Caracus villager said.
Gus and the soldiers were dumbstruck.
”The official came to warn us about some uninvited guests into our island, who carried weapons of destruction that can wipe our whole village in a single blow and so they came to ask for our help in fighting these foes,” Mars said.
The whole room was filled with silence. Everyone in the room other than the Caracus villagers and Mars were confused with endless thoughts and doubts running in their heads continuously.
”We conveyed our chief's message. We completed our mission and will be going back to our village now. Those who have attacked us are going to show up in 5 days and asked us to surrender the 5 soldiers we were hiding. Since we are not hiding anyone, our village is going to fight them to death. We will be waiting for your answer.” The Caracas village official left after saying those words.
A war in 5 days, one needs to prepare a number of things to go into a war. Mindoro is a village that has only produced doctors and farmers, not a warrior. Things really got out of hand.
*”They are the soldiers from Agartha, our enemy nation, but how? How can they find us so fast? Our ship sank into whirlpool. There is no way they could anticipate what has happened and come here in search of us. And these are the mythical islands no human has ever seen before”* Ares wondered to himself and suddenly something struck him.
*”Islands that no human has ever discovered, yet we have an expedition unit back in the mainland, which searches for islands and studies about them in our government. The unit only consists of Nobles and people that sit in higher positions. But how? Are they keeping islands a secret from the rest of the nation? But in reality, they have come across many? And they even have technology which can locate the islands and create an easy path into it? Have we been deceived all this time?”* Ares felt betrayed and lost. If the government really have the technology and methods to locate and enter islands concealed by harsh nature, he wouldn't have lost his ship and his soldiers. This made Ares so angry as he kept thinking about the soldiers who lost their lives to this ridiculousness.
Agartha is one of the two continents and an enemy nation of Ares's. They are the enemies that hunted Ares and his ship and somehow they learnt that a small squad of 5 soldiers survived the attacks, came into this island to take refuge. They chased after Ares persistently to put an end to Ares and his friends.
While Mars, the head of the village and Gus were in deep thoughts- ”Chief, first of all, I really thank you and your village for helping us so much while we were wounded and in need of nursing. Even now while we were walking in the streets, your people still show us so much support and the amount of love shown by you guys is immense. Honestly, we of the military people don't deserve the love we have been receiving. We work for people and expect nothing in return. When the people are in danger we lay our lives on the line.”
”Please leave it to just us 5 soldiers. We will go on behalf of your village and we swear on our lives that we will not let a single person come for your throats.” Ares spoke like a leader, with words full of pride and honesty. For Ares, this is his oath and repayment to the villagers for helping him and his soldiers when they needed it. When Ares said he swore to do something, he always succeeded in finishing those things. He sets his own goals and would never fail in achieving them.
”Hmmm, brave young soldier, please follow me,” Mars said thoughtfully.
Mars took the soldiers out to the streets for a walk. When they reached the stage which is used in the village to announce important matters or to pass on a message to all the villagers, Mars rang a huge bell, that was on the side of stage, three times. This was to address the whole villagers to gather for important hearing events. Slowly one by one, the whole village gathered in the place. Mars and Gus stood with the five soldiers at the centre of the stage.
Mars took a deep breath.
”As you people have all noticed, we have been visited by the people of Caracas. I appreciate that none of you made a huge ruckus of it and left it alone, for me to deal with.” Mars started by thanking the people, which helped the people to clear the doubts from their heads. The villagers nodded their head happily in approval and they started paying one attention to the chief speaking, as they recognized how loyal he is to them.
”Caracus was attacked by some military from outside. Their whole village was destroyed and many lives were lost. The reason they got attacked that attackers thought the people of Caracus were hiding a group of 5 soldiers in their village.”
”These five youngsters on the stage ( Mars is referring to Ares and his four soldiers), are for some reason being targeted. It is evident that after the attackers are done with Caracus they will come after us too. The attackers don't have any means to negotiate at all, they only want to destroy and take what they came searching for. ”

”Yes... ”
