Chapter 6

 

As I looked in the first cell I couldn't what I saw. Aaron's body was in the corner of the cell, his small body in a ball with dry blood all over his face and arms.

 

"Brian, Aaron's in here" I said as Brian came over to the cell I was standing at. He took out his small tool set and started working on opening the door. The door flung open as I ran to Aaron and picked him up in my arms. I whipped his blond hair out of his face as he stirred in my arms and opened his eyes.

 

"Nick" his voice weak.

   

"Hey AC" I said as brian and I walked down a long hallway and into a medical room.

   

"Who's he?" Aaron asked as he looked at Brian.

   

"he's a friend of mine he's going to help us get back home" I said as I layed Aaron down on the bed so Brian could look him over. I saw Brian take out a washcloth and a bottle of alcohol out of the cabinet. He put a little bit of alcohol onto the cloth and looked down at Aaron.

   

"This may sting a little" Brian said as Aaron nodded his head in understanding, wincing as the wash cloth burned into his open wounds. I was startled by the sound of someone coming in on my walkie-talkie.

   

"Get your butts down here now Royal attack!" I heard AJ say as Brian looked at me.

   

"We better go now" Brian said as he finished cleaning Aaron's wounds quickly. I picked up Aaron as we got our guns ready.

   

"Position?" I said into my walkie-talkie.

   

"26 n 82 w" Howie answered. Brian took out his computerized map of the ship as he typed in there location.

   

"This way" He said as we quickly ran. Up ahead I saw Kevin, Howie and AJ running towards us.

   

"RUN!!" Kevin shouted as brian and I ran. I looked back and saw Royal guards running after us with laser guns in there hands. We ran and ran until finally we came to a dead end like in my dream. We watched as the royals came closer and closer.

   

"Save your selves!" Kevin said as he ran towards the Royals and started to attack them. I looked at him as Brian, howie and AJ pulled me away. I stopped and put Aaron in Brian's arms.

   

"Go to the spacecraft and if Kevin and I aren't on in a matter of 15 minutes take off without us" I said as I ran to help Kevin, pulling my knife out of the pocket in my pant leg as I ran. A royal came running towards me and I stuck my knife into his stomach. I pulled my gun out of my belt as another rans toward me and shot him. I ran up to Kevin and picked him up putting his arm around my neck as I helped him run. I looked back and saw another royal coming after us. I took a knife from Kevin's jacket pocket and threw it at the royals head watching him fall to the ground. We started to walk quickly again as we came to the entrance. I stopped dead in my tracks as I saw King Yukon come out from behind the entrance door and it shut behind him.

   

"So Nick you thought you could win, didn't you?" He said as I glared at him, I put Kevin down against the wall.

   

"Maybe I did but ever since I saw the look of you I knew you wouldn't win" I said.

   

"Really I thought the same when I saw how much of an idiot your father was, your just like him Nick, afraid of what might come next, afraid to fight me" He said as I took my light saver out and so did he.

   

"You've got the wrong impression of me Yukon" I said as he moved closer to me.

   

"Really lets see what you got" he said as he swung his light saver and I did a back flip off the wall kicking him down to the ground.

   

"Is that all you have?" He said as he laughed and I charged toward him. He tripped me and I fell to the ground immediately getting back to my feet. I swung my light saver at him again as he blocked me. He did a back flip back wards as I caught him off guard as I stuck my light saver through his chest. He fell to the ground, trying to breath for air but couldn't. I stuck my light saver into my jacket and picked Kevin up as we walked quickly out of the entrance door and I saw the spacecraft almost to take off. I started to run with Kevin as quickly as possible to the spacecraft. We ran through the doors as they closed. I put Kevin down on his bunk.

   

"Nick!!" Aaron said as he hugged me and I picked him up.

   

"I missed you so much AC" I said as hugged him tighter.

   

"I missed you too Nick" Aaron said as I heard Brian announce that we were going to take off.

   

"Hold on Kev" I said as I strapped him into his bunk.

   

"Thanks Nick" he said as he smiled.

   

"Welcome kev" I said as I walked back to where Aaron and I were going to sit.  I sat down and buckled myself in as I felt the spacecraft lift up off the ground and go into hyper speed. A little while later I looked at Aaron who was peacefully sleeping in my lap and I looked at the other guys. I saw the room start to spin as I started to feel light headed. I felt the vibration's of the spacecraft go through my head, making it hurt. I felt my mouth move but heard no sound coming from it. I must have screamed out in pain as I saw the others walking up to me. There lips moved but I heard no sound as my would turned to darkness.
