The Savagers Revolution

Chapter 14

Denver, Chief of Moryhate mine?…

“Take you to our chief?” Harrad asked this strange looking mine guard “that's impossible, we would never do that, go find a fool to do such” 

“Harrad?, let's be slow in our dealings now, he's with a large number of our members and Denver would not like all of them getting eliminated as once” Silma said to his fellow savage

“So if we promise to take you to our chief now, what happens to our six members who you have captured" Silma asked the strange savage guard

“And we can only take one person to go see him, so your fellow guards with who you used to capture our men can not come along” Slima explained to get the advantage in their favour as to reduce number not knowing

“Are you giving me the rules now?" He asked and fear gripped the both of them "they were all captured by me alone, so there is not a need to say I should come alone, I am all alone in my endeavours" he smiled as he said this

“You can untie them, your fault they haven't been released a long time ago, I just needed a well informed savager of Denver operations, and i hope you guys are what I seek” the strange mine guard said

“Now can we release them, they would have to be with us as we go to meet Denver or he wouldn't listen” said one of Denver minions

“Ok let's start going to the all great Denver and have some fun" the mine guard said, making them to shiver a bit

The men who were tied before in b*****e included the three runners sent for the delivery in the early hours of the day and the savagers involved in the disbursing of the flaurixe ore through the mine guards

Silma noticed their mouth were sealed so he tried to remove the seal from one of their mouth and the strange mine guard shouted at him “ No! Don't do that not allowed, I said they would be released but not to be free to start speaking”

"You are allowed to only untie their legs to allow them participate in this journey back to where the do called Denver is" the mine guard said in all seriousness

 “Anyone who tries to run would be shot in the back ” said the mine guard who had the aura of a superior warrior not just an ordinary guard, on his left hand he had a crossbow and on the right was his sword

Harrad was very more uncomfortable than his counterpart Silma as he had been sensing movement behind them since they started moving

He felt like it was as if they were being followed but when sneaking a peep back at the tunnel he does not see any mine guard in uniform, just a few other savagers walking as the go about their different business

Silma also was sensing danger in his gut “so what do you plan on doing once we get to where Denver is” he asked the mine guard

“To talk business with him of course, after all what does savagers and mine guards talk about these days he smiled as he said that, and Silma seeing it made him a whole lot suspicious

The 6 savagers who were still in b*****e were just following to the pull of the rope with no sight to tell where they were going to as they were all blindfolded

“We have to do something, he's not who he said he is, taking him directly to Denver would be succide for the both of us” Silma Whispered to Harrad who was by his right hand side as they were walking that the tunnel

“We need would need a place where there are many outlet so we can move fast and out”

“Watch for my signal, and remember it's to run and not to fight, we may be able to take him on ourselves but I think there are a lot of his men at the back coming through” Silma told his fellow warriors 

“Ok, I would be awaiting the signal, but what about the rest of them, from Denver instructions we are supposed to kill them to keep the information about the smuggling activies secret, how would we do that now even our safety is in danger”

“We will just have to see he whispered back

“Why don't you free their eyes and leave their mouth shut, that would much more easier for you to control them as they would be in a more controllable movement”

“Yeah that so, but easier to run away too, based on your thoughts I guess, i am very good with the crossbow, you are forewarned, you can ask the bleeding runner for confirmation”

As that moment Harrad noticed an important fact, the mine guard already knew who the runners were and who is to say he have no information on each and every one in the smuggling network

“We have a mole within the smuggling network" Harrad whispered to his fellow warrior Silma, who didn't seem to react to the shocking revelation he just made after saying it

This made Harrad now suspicious of Silma taking his mind back to the day's experience, asking series of questions to himself, 'no Silma can't be a betrayal, I have worked with him for too long to know this' he finally concluded in his mind

'But now, how do we get….' his thoughts was running through when suddenly Slima took his dagger from his waist buckle

With that action fear gripped his heart as this is a confirmation of his previous thoughts about Silma

But that wasn't the case as Silma threw the dagger he had retrieved from Harrad at the mine guard, who saw it coming fast enough to leave the rope attached to the savagers in b*****e and taking up his sword to deflect the incoming dagger

At that moment reaction, Harrad has already regain himself shouting at the top of his lungs "RUN!!!!….. " as Silma shredded the rope of the savagers in bonded, who all use their now free hands to remove the blind folding from their face as they all broke into a run for their lives

As Harrad who was the first to flee was running away from the scene into another tunnel, looking back he saw about 10 other persons lifting up the cloak they were on to reveal their black strange uniform and weapons as they ran towards the fleeing savagers

All fled except brois who was the runner who was injured in his shoulder, now free from the darkness that had blind his sight for so long and free with his hands though one already handicapped previously from this strange mine guard arrow

Brois fell on his knees like he had been striked down but at that moment bringing out his dagger in secret as he saw the strange mine guard running after the fleeing savagers and coming from his back the other warriors who were following them in secret now now revealing them selves as they ran towards the fleeing savagers with him in the middle

“i pray to the Edian gods, free me from this world of torment and welcome me into thy bossom that I may serve you forever” he prayed his last prayer silently as the first of the secret following warrior who was running forward reaches his side

Not minding his position as more of the warriors are going to be passing after the first, Blois still kneeling down on the floor with his head bowed, reacted in a sharp movement of his body as he flung his hand holding the dagger in a circular motion 

Sending the dagger into the lap of the first pursuing warrior, “"Ahhhh..... ” the warrior shouted as he did not expect the attack, falling down flat as Blois crawled on top of him and started sending his dagger up and down, in and out into the fallen warriors body, creating a lot of holes with the liquid so common in the mine gushing out

Knowing his fate and satisfied with the multiple punctured body of the now dead warrior he knelt down to his former position but now with his head straight up as another pursuing warrior strike his sword into the middle of his head as he runs by in pursuit of the other savagers

The first strange mine guard now up with his crossbow taking out two of the savagers after a few attempts on shooting multiple of them as he continued sending his arrow at his last target as he pursued him into a narrow secondary tunnel with two other black uniformed warriors behind him

Slima now running with all his might in a slant zig zag pattern to avoid the arrows of the incoming strange warrior dressed as a mine guard with other two warriors in their black uniform

“NOW!!!!” Slima shouted with all his might as he enter into a dead end surrounded with Denver and his savagers group unknown to his pursuers as they never knew it was a trap

The strange warrior dressed as a mine guard was in a state of total confusion, delighted on seeing his prey reach a dead end but now realising he was the trapped animal

As soon as the other two black uniform dressed warriors entered into the marked out zone, their throat were immediately slitted on arrival in a staged ambush

Now left alone in the the large dead end cell which had narrow tunnel leading up to it
