Amaya POV
I hate this, this feeling of having no power at all to stop the executioner from killing my father. I and mother blend into the crowd to look at my father's face one last time. I can see my mom swallows a big lump that formed inside her throat as she accepts her lover's fate, to be killed as a traitor in front of the netizens.
I clutch the bottom of my dirtied clothes to stop myself from running up the stage and go killing spree. I just can't stand it. The guards come closer to my father's lifeless body and proceed to grab him off the stage like he is a pile of garbage. One of the guards took his ZX gun and point it to father's corpse, he pulls the trigger, a blue light comes out of the gun. Once the light touches the corpse, every fiber of it turns to ashes.
I wanted to close my eyes avoiding to see more of it. But I can't. Moments later, one of the general's people come running to the stage holding a black envelope. people start murmuring their thoughts about what's inside of it but no one dares to question the messenger.
He's out of breath but he still proceeds to open the envelope. He read it first before looking back at the people or should I say the combinations of other species. He cleared his throat before announcing the news.
'' Anyone who wants to follow this traitor's path will end up the same faith as him or worse. As for Dezcheln's family, they will become general Alem's slave for the rest of their life as payment for what Nereik Dezcheln sin. Surrender themselves or she'll do it by force!''
I look immediately at my mother's eyes and what I see surprise me. I see determination and bravery in it. She pulls her hood over her head so do I. We can't be caught now. She grabs my right hand and carefully we made our way home to let my siblings know about the cruel news awaiting to us.
I want to scream, collect his remains, mourn for his death but I can't. Our lives are at risk. People said that once you've become the general's slave consider your life doomed. The streets of the city started filling up by people, which made our journey home much more difficult. People bumping to us but we didn't stop.
I tried looking down at all cost but something caught my attention, it was a big picture of my family projected all over the city. Each head has a large amount of money on top of them. My eyes widen in shock, I tightened my grip on my mom's hand to stop her from looking down and take a peak. Her reaction is the same as mine. So we walk fast so people won't spot and capture us.
The netizens started searching for our faces in the crowd but they failed to recognize us. We flee out of the city.
Just wait for us Carmen & Havi.
Alem's POV
Pest, all of them are a bunch of pests that I need to exterminate. Rebel trying riot their way in my castle is unacceptable. They are the one who keeps on producing children and they have the audacity to start a rebellion!
I slam my fist on the table that it parted into two pieces. The guards flinch as they hear the table drop on the cold marble floor. I shake my head in disappointment. How can they be my guards if they flinch easily? Later my messenger open the door, he looks hesitant so I nod my head, allowing him to enter the room.
He's the messenger but minutes pass by and he's still not giving me any news. I raise one of my eyebrows and he looks startled. He clears his throat before looking into my eyes.
'' The leader of the rebels has been hanged and shot with ZX gun to ashes. What's your next order general?'' He looks up but not he's looking everywhere but my eyes. I can feel my frustration building up. This messenger is stupid and coward!
I let out a sigh then wrote my next order on a paper and put it in a black envelope. I give the envelope to one of my guards then he handed it to the coward messenger. He was about to leave when I snapped my fingers. He turns around and nervously look at me.
I smiled devilishly then say: If they can't turn themselves in, I'll use force.''
'' Yes, general.'' he bows his head and leaves.
No one will be left unpunished.
I stood up and made my way to my chamber where I can let all my frustrations out.
