Runaways

Chapter 1.

Millions of insects zipped around in the 40 degree heat, Bruce and Jerry Evans had quit trying to swat them and concentrated on running. You see Bruce and Jerry weren’t just kids; but runaways. They had to leave their family and all they had behind, all the brothers had now were each other and if one should die or get lost, the other could be taken easily
“You ok there little bro?” Jerry asked his little brother
Bruce nodded; unaware of how much he was shaking
“Come on, gimme a hug” Jerry grinned
Bruce first hesitated, then went to his brother, and hugged him
“I miss them” he sniffed
“Who doesn’t little brother? Who doesn’t?” Jerry sighed
BANG!
BANG!
“I found them!” a man said in Japanese
“I’ve got an idea” Bruce said
“What?” Jerry asked
“RUN!” Bruce yelled
They ran at full pelt, jumping over bushes and ducking under branches
“ Well you’re a little comedian aren’t you?” Jerry giggled
Bruce managed a smile
BOOM!
Bruce fell to the ground, his ears pierced with sound.
“Jerry!” Bruce shouted desperately
Bruce felt himself being picked up
“On your feet Bruce we’ve got to go now!” Jerry yelled, “We are leaving!”
Bruce ran with Jerry again, his ears still hurting from the explosion
They ran to a little abandoned village shack and hid there, Jerry spotted a knife and handed another one to Bruce
“Remember what I said about hunting Bruce?” Jerry asked
Bruce nodded
“Pretend these guys are animals, ok”
Bruce gulped
“Ready?” Jerry whispered
Bruce nodded as the soldiers crept in
“Banzai!” Jerry screamed, stabbing the soldier
Two more ran in, Bruce hesitated to stab as they grabbed Jerry
“BRUCE!” Jerry yelled
Bruce was about to stab when the soldier marched out
“We’ll get the other little idiot later” another soldier said in Japanes
“NO!” Bruce yelled
“JERRY!”
then, Jerry was gone.

Chapter 2.

Bruce couldnt believe it! his family.... gone. His brother.....gone. himself.....alone. Bruce considered turning back and giving in, but thought better of it they will come back.... someday.
He walked along a dusty path and found a little hill that; on the other side had a raided village. From on top of the small hil you could see the whole, flat village just laying there, teared to shreds by japanese soldiers who were camped there days ago
oh my god Bruce thought
He couldnt believe the sight, flat buildings, destroyed shacks, and bullet shells everywhere. HE spotted a fixed hut and walked towards it, but when he got close he got a weird feeling
"AAARRRRGGGHHHH" the attacker screamed
whoever it was lunged at Bruce and pinned him down, who was his attacker.... a boy! Aged about twelve years old. Bruce shoved him off and asked him his name
"my name is asuke nokana" the boy replied, holding out his hand
Bruce hesitated then pointed at asuke
"try that again and i'll rearrange your face!" Bruce warned
"oh yeah, your just all talk!" asuke yelled
Bruce kicked him asuke in the stomach, winding asuke
"ok ok i was wrong!" asuke squirmed
Bruce helped him up
"you've done some fighting havent you?" the kid asked, knowingly
Bruce nodded
"my brother taught me" Bruce explained
"hmmm" he hummed
"i'll do you a deal uh....."
"Bruce" Bruce pointed out
"ah, Bruce if you be my 'bodyguard' ill give you a place to sleep and eat, deal?" asuke asked
Bruce shrugged, then shook his hand
'Deal!"

Chapter 3

Asuke kept running through the trees, he must've been here a long time
Bruce thought to himself. They cut through some vines to reveal a small hut with nothing but grass around it
"this is your hut?" Bruce asked
Asuke nodded
"My family use live here but no mo" Asuke replied
he's losing his english Bruce thought
"do you want me to teach you your letters?" Bruce asked
but before Asuke answered gunshots were heard
BOOM!
a soldier yelled in japanese
"wheres that little boy!?"
Asuke panicked and urged Bruce to follow him
"come" he whispered " I know where go"
he pointed at a little village up ahead
"but look..." Bruce said "its japanesed occupied!"
"it wont be easy get inside" he explained
"all you need proper disguise"
where are we gonna get that?" Bruce snapped
Asuke pointed to a couple of soldiers
"Them"

Chapter 4

Bruce gulped as they crawled along the dusty grey road towards the soldiers. They quietly stood up and grabbed their guns and hit them on their heads, which then, knocked them out. Bruce dropped his gun but Asuke still held it
"this will compensate for my strength" he said
Bruce went awkward
"your gonna kill them!?" he asked
Asuke didnt answer, he just tugged his gun close to him.
They walked towards a large tent, this must be the mess hall,mmmmm he thought. They waltzed in and got some supplies beans, fruit ah, and energy bars Bruce was satisfied. they quietly close the tent and left, when Asuke ran off
"WAIT!" Bruce yelled
"who said that a soldier asked
another pointed at Bruce.

Chapter 5

Bruce sprinted away and looked for Asuke but he was nowhere to be found. Suddenly...
BANG!
Bruce closed his eyes
"Bruce are you alright?" Asuke asked, Bruce sat up
"for now" he replied, his eyes still closed
"come on" Bruce said
They ran to the hut they used to be in. Bruce spotted a dead soldier on the ground, he looked like the commander
"Did you.....?" Bruce started
Asuke just kept running
they eventually found the hut and hid in the walk in closet, which was made out of bamboo like the rest of the hut
"why'd you kill him?"
Asukes eyes started to water
"its got to do with your family doesn't it?" Bruce said gently
"tell us about it"
Asuke stared at Bruce then sniffed as he was about to tell what had happened.
" I was a four year old back then....."


8 years ago...


"Honey have you seen my wallet" Mr Nokana called to his wife
"Yes" called a low, deep voice
Mr Nokana emerged to find only his wife dead
oh snap, its commander chon
"surprised to see me?" Chon asked
"never" he spat
Asuke walked in and saw his mum dad and gave a long shriek. Mr. Nokana ducked and ran towards his son and picked him up
"bye Mr Chon!" he said, he grabbed a kitchen knife and threw it at him. Chon ducked
"GET THEM" he ordered his soldiers. Mr.Nokana ran in a pawn shop and burst out of the fire door, the alarm blasted out, piercing Mr. Nokanas ears as he stumbled forwards and fell down.
"hide" Mr. Nokana breathed to his son
A soldier saw Mr. nokana and called his boss over. Chon pulled out a desert eagle out of the pawn shop and aimed at Mr. Nokanas head as Asuke was watching
"idiot" Mr. Nokana spat
then the bullet went off.

Chapter 6

"im sorry" Bruce said, blown away by the fact that Asuke just killed and also by the terrifying story of his father and mothers death
"dont be, i already blame myself" Asuke sniffed
what the hell! he was four years old
They began walking ahead towards a mountain
"so thats it then?" Bruce asked "you blame yourself over something inevitable?"
Asuke fumed off. Bruce shook his head in contempt
"I think that right now in heaven your fathers not that proud of you" Bruce said "I mean, he didnt deliberately want to get killed, now did he?"
Asuke considered this for a moment then fumed off again
"Whatever" Asuke yelled
BOOM!
"carp!" Bruce yelled "what now?"
he started to quicken his pace
"i left them a surprise" he smiled
he actually relishes the moment
"Asuke....."
But he was talking to air

*

"AARGGGHHHHH" Jerry groaned in pain as he was whipped in the back of a dark truck
"get up" said a soldier, an spat in Jerrys face. He struggled to get up
Bruce wherever you are get me the hell out of here
the back door opened and Jerrys vision was blinded with light
Beautiful
then he saw a a boots sole.
Thats the last thing he saw, then it all went black.

Chapter 7

Bruce ran up to Asuke and grabbed the gun off him and chucked it into the bushes and grabbed him
"Asuke" Bruce said "is that what this is all about? Revenge?"
Asuke kept walking, paused then looked at Bruce and said
"Revenge can be good sometimes" he said calmly
Bruce lunged at Asuke again
"no it cant" Bruce said firmly
Asuke just glared at him
"just because your father was killed! do you think he would want this!" Bruce shouted
Asuke thought for a while then said
"yes"
"NO!" Bruce yelled, and ran off
Asuke just stared into the sky wondering if his dad would really want him to have pulled the trigger

*


Jerry stared at his room and at all his other cellmates
im just a boy i will be killed in here!
"whatya doin' new boy" an australian said
Jerry just needed respect so he said
"i thught you were down under like maybe, hell"
The australian got pissed on the spot but little he could do about it, for he was bound in the cell just like Jerry and the others. A guard walked by and asked
"are you taking care of boy"
"yer, and better care i will in metals class today" he looked at Jerry
"wont that be nice?"

Chapter 8

Bruce walked to the edge of the hill he was on when he heard Asuke coming he thought about keeping on with his act of being mad at him but he couldnt help feeling sorry for him, what with his dad dead and all so he went over
"are you ok?" Bruce asked
"you know I dont think my Dad would want me to have killed Chon." Bruce was dumbstruck
"but i thought you said-"
"revenge can be good?" Asuke asked "nah, i guess its not"
Bruce thought it was good to mention his brother know. He didnt want to keep talking about revenge and killing so he said
"i miss my brother"
Asuke did his thing
"will get him back!"
"its not like theres a reward" Bruce said
"no, i was thinking about getting a girl"
Bruce laughed, the old Asuke was back

*

Jerry was led to the outside courtyard of the prison and kept an eye out for Aussie when he heard a flicknife as his mouth was covered. Jerry had to act fast, he jabbed out and luckily hit Aussie. Aussie swung a wild punch Jerry ducked but it was the wrong move and he ended up with a punch in the head thats when the guards took action
"break it up" a guard said
the prisoners got angry as their 'entertainment' was interrupted. A prisoner swung at a guard and tht led off to the batons as prisoners got whacked in the back, head and ribs. Jerry felt a whack on his balls and his head then his eyes went red and there were bruises all over him and crazy pattens in his eyes.
Then, one more punch and he went cold.
