Stolen Gold Part 2

Chapter 12, Carry On

The next day, everyone was stunned by what happened last night. We buried their bodies on the beach, Marcus isn't happy  about this one bit. My whole group is upset about it, Abraham told me, "Sarah and Tom didn't do much, but they were still humans, and we lost them, at least they don't have to go through hell anymore." Marcus hasn't moved since, he was sitting by the graves for 6 hours straight. I sure hope he heals before we battle Big Island. Speaking of Big Island, that is why Sarah killed herself, she didn't have any hope for us, Tom just killed himself because his half daughter just shot herself right in front of him. That's why when we get to Big Island, live or die, we're fighting for Josephine, Sarah, Tom, Nick, and Dax, they didn't deserve to die, and no one else does.

I started up the ferry and we were moving, Brandon was standing next to me with a handful of pecans. "About Marcus, he's going to fight, he's a tough kid." Andrew said. Brandon nodded and threw a pecan in his mouth. "How are we doing on ammo, Brandon?" Andrew asked. Brandon almost choked. "We're doing great on ammo, just don't waste it." Brandon said. Hopefully every bullet we shot counted. A couple minutes later, I parked the ferry next to the shore. "Alright, you ready kid?" Andrew asked. Brandon nodded and passed me a pecan. I went outside and told everyone to gather around. As I was going to stand up, Jack stopped me, he said he wanted to do the speech, Jack was really good when it came to motivation. "We all saw what happened last night, Sarah and Tom took their lives, It's a mad world we live in now, and it was before the lights went out, but when we take over this island, we are fighting for Tom and Sarah and all the people we've lost!" Jack yelled. Everyone started to cheer Jack on. I saw Abraham pull Jack down from the stand. "Who's ready to kick some Gay Angel and Dick Reaper ass?" Abraham yelled. Everyone began to cheer louder, a bit too loud. I pulled Abraham down, it was my turn to say something. "Live or die, we fight for Sarah and Tom, we fight for our freedom, we fight for our home!" Andrew yelled. The crowd cheered even louder, but I told them to ease down the volume so no one heard. "COME ON! OFF THE FERRY WE GO!" Andrew yelled. Everyone cheered and followed me off of the ferry.

"The gunshots stopped, maybe they made it." an old man said. Erwin shook his head. "We don't know that, we don't know if they're coming back. That's why I'm going to go see." Erwin said. An old woman tried stopping him but Erwin swatted her away. Erwin grabbed an assault rifle and two pistols. "I'll be back, you guys are older than me, you don't need me, and if you see something we have some pistols left in the prison so don't freak out." Erwin said. Erwin put the guns in a duffel bag and started to swim to Molokai. When Erwin made it across, he went to search for the prison. 

As Erwin was searching he found the prison, but noticed that there was nothing inside, the whole prison was empty. Erwin saw smoke in the distance and ran to it. He came across the high school, he saw that the high school was empty as well, but had bodies in it. Erwin came to his senses that they were headed to Big Island already. 

When Erwin ran to the other side of Molokai, he couldn't breath, I don't think he could swim from Molokai to Big Island in his condition right now. Erwin searched for a boat along the seashore, he found one, it was a paddle boat. "Fuck it, I'll take it." Erwin said to himself. Erwin placed his bag in the boat and started to paddle towards Big Island.

Dex was behind me, Kalani wasn't happy about me untying him, but he's been good so far. "You're leading us to the prison." Andrew said. Dex nodded. "I'm glad you know that we might not make it out alive, you should meet the leader of the Big Island, I don't think Kalani can beat him in a fist fight." Dex said. But it only takes a bullet to take a man like Kalani down. "Do you know how many guards there are surrounding this place?" Andrew asked. Dex was going to answer but he was interrupted by the sound of a car engine. "Samantha, take care of this one." Andrew said. Samantha ducked on the side of the road and sniped the truck's wheel, the truck was now flipping back and forth, as it rolled I could hear the sound of their assault rifles, they were pretty loud. It came so fast that I had to pull Samantha out of the way of the trucks target. The truck stopped, I walked towards it, the two men had died. I looked in their bag and found pictures inside, they were pictures of the ferry, and it looked like they took them last night. "Do they know we're coming?" Frank asked. I shook my head. "Probably not, they were probably on their way to show it." Andrew said. We headed into the bushes instead.
