Chapter 4:

Welcome to the family

Lancaster


It's 9 pm and Kristopher and the other members are now having a meeting to discuss the plan they will put in action, and for the first time Alyx and Esteban are making part of it.

"So let's beggin our meeting guys" says Kristopher,"First things first, for those who don't know, I would like you to introduce to our new members Alyx and Esteban"

"Hey guys I'm Alyx, I'm 12 years old, Kristopher found me after one of the attacks, the same attack that killed my dad. My mother left me when I was 5 years old due to domestic violence and other issues,she tried to escape with me but she failed, the only way she could escape safely was by herself so thats what she did, I don't blame her, I still love her and I hope she's alive so I can see her again... but my dad, I'm so grateful that he's dead now" Alyx gives another creepy smile, this only happenes when he's talking about his father William. Everyone in the table started to get a little bit uncomfortable even Esteban that starts to think to himself " Man Alyx is acting so weird since he knocked his head, I guess he really hated that man, he seems so happy with the ideia that he's dead". Alyx continues to talk " Besides that I want to found my friend Maria that is missing".

"So I guess is my turn now... I'm Esteban, I'm also 12 years old, I was found with Alyx since we are friends since we could remember, I really want to find my parents that I lost track during the attacks, I'm positive about it. I also want to find Maria, because since me and Alyx are good friends Maria and I are friends as well, even tho I've never seen her, because according to Alyx she was always locked at home due to her abusive parents, that's it" scratch his head and giggles.

"Kristopher..." says Alyx, " Me and Esteban already decided that our role in the house will be cleaning, we are going to be responsible to clean every devision of this house if that's ok to you.

"OK kids, from now on you,ll take care of the house and clean it"

"Thank you Kristopher Sama, and every member here, thank you as well, I'm looking forward to work with all of you"

"Yeah thats right" exclaims Esteban," by the way, what's your roles here guys?"

John Gurley notes"As you now I'm the nurse here" 

" Me, Richard, Arthur, Isabella, Margarete and Louis are the responsibles for hunting, it's the most dangerous task since you need to go outside the valley wich means you're more susceptible of being killed by the attacks, thats why I found both of you, we were hunting" Kristopher concludes.

"I'm George, I'm responsible for cooking our meals, not only me, Wilson and Trisha as well, the dinner is almost ready I hope you like it ahahah"

"To finish this introduction, I'm Grey, I'm responsible for keeping our little farm in good conditions, I work with Carla, Jacinta, Edward and Justin. We do everything we can to produce as much vegetables and fruits as possible, and we also have the job to found potable water"

"So now kids you already know everyone, since we are waiting for the dinner to be ready, let's talk about the plan".

Kristopher grabs a map out of his pocket and opens it so everyone could see" Ok, we are here, located about 12 km of the castle, the castle is located in the top of the royal mountain that is 2 kilometers high. It´s going to be really hard to infiltrate the castle, we need to walk 12 kilometers and then go to the top of the mountain , and since it's winter time it's even more difficult. Not to mention that the army is spread in all the kingdom and the majority is concentrated in the castle's area, so we can be caught, however I listened to some people earlier today when I was hunting, that the army is not only killing people, but are recruiting as well, basically they are forcing people to die or to join the royal army.

Alyx concludes" So let's infiltrate in there by being recruited then"

Everyone looked so shocked
