Silma, Harrad and co
Now sure that they were in the other side of the secondary tunnel, so out of reach of the death squad for the time being, Silma and his trainee went in search of Harrad and any other Savager that was under the leadership of their now dead master Denver
“This place is looking so empty too, I guess all savager around here have gone indoors too in response to the information that spread around about the incoming of the death squad, the group much feared based on their past reputation" Silma trainee was saying as they walked through the tunnel looking round, and Venturing into some cell patch in enquiry of information on just about anything
Looking into a corner, Silma could notice a stare glancing his way From one of the cell patch from opposite the side of the tunnel, a bit afar off into the mine field
“There you are ” Silma didn't know when he said this as he started heading towards the cell patch that he had just noticed the Savager staring at him
“where we going?” Silma trainee called to him as he followed him in the back leading to the cell patch
“Harrad?” Silma called out audibly as he reached the cell patch he had seen from afar
Coming out quickly, he dragged Silma and the other Savager that he had no idea who it was, but knowing he was a friendly as Silma was with him
"What have you been doing all these while, don't you know the team have been fighting it out with the death squad who have invaded our homes" Silma said immediately he ventured into the cell patch housing Harrad
“No no, don't tell me that, you already know there no winning in that sort of situation, Quintus was rescued by the Red dynasty, the menebers morale are low and we nevered signed in on fighting with the legendary death squad, Quintus was our hope”
Harrad said "and even, what about you, why are you not with Denver at this moment when he would most definitely need you his most able man" he added without a show of emotion
“Denver is dead” Silma revealed as he pause a while for Harrad to feel the impact of this news
Harrad stood there in shock as he try to get his head around what he just heard, ‘impossible, this is so impossible, how do we go from here now’ was what rang in his head before the sudden interruption
“How did he died?”, the visitors suddenly heard the phrase coming from a boisterous voice and a smiling pretty teenage face
The trainee shocked from seeing such beauty, wondered where she had come from 'was she one of the people of horen who have just came out of the wall' he suddenly exercised caution on think of this
Silma startled just for a split second before noticing familiar face of the one who stood by him, asking such a nerve wrecking question with a glee on the face as if it was something of a curious enquiry
His trainee just staying quietly at the side of the call patch, watching the two talk, not seeing that there was a fourth person in the cell patch yet
“Oh Camelia, didn't know you were here, Silma responded after the initial shock of seeing her, and the slight irritation of the question she had just asked him
Silma trainee, also a teenager was now looking at Camelia without blinking an eye, probably feeling lucky to have come have come here with his master
“How did he died?, Please tell me” she asked again, now with more curiosity accompanied with joy, “and why is he looking at me that way” she pointed at Silma trainee with a bit of a questioning look in her face
This Snapped Silma trainee out of his illusion as he had not noticed that Camelia was aware of his eyes all over her
“Oh, sorry sorry” he quickly apologized, “you just came out of the blues just now and I couldn't stop staring at the stranger I have never seen before, you are not a trainee?” he added the question at the end of his apology
“Hes my trainee” Silma quickly said, pausing a little before answering, he added “The commander of the death squad personally strike him down, after all the other Savagers had been completely wiped out in the battlefield with the death squad” he finally answered her question, which left her giggling in excitement as Silma explained what happened
“Save us Ed" Harrad said in reaction to what he had just heard, “so the great Denver of our land is truly now dead, is this Moryhate doom?” he said in the air, not particularly asking for an answer
“So what's going to happen now, who would rule Moryhate?” Camelia asked in delight without considering anything before talking
“What do you mean by 'who would rule Moryhate', the death squad have not even left yet, would there be anything left to rule after they are done with the place” Silma trainee chipped in
“Yes, that's true, the Red dynasty would most definitely use this as an opponent to regain control of the Moryhate mine entirely, something has to be done about that” Silma said in backing of his trainee who had just spoken
“So you were not there with Denver then, but watched him from afar as our people were killed by the death squad and as Denver was striked down!” Harrad finally said what was in his mind
“Like you said earlier, it was a lost battle, I didn't feel the need to die for what is already lost, we all knew taking on the legendary death squad was of an impossible feat with a plan, and without a plan it was suicide like what just happened”
Suddenly they heard footsteps approaching the cell patch where they were in, was not the sound of a single person but of.…
“it's the death squad…!!!” Camelia said almost screaming if not for Harrad that held her mouth closed in a split second
