(Roman Hastings POV)
Past. By now people probably think we are dead and maybe have given up on finding us and moving on with their lives, so should we that's why it's important to defeat Josphine and her men so we can move on with our lives try an make this island our home and who knows maybe be better than the last one we had.
I sign and rest my head on the tree resting a moment. I stare tiredly at the Ocean as I hardly gotten any sleep these past couple weeks.
As I've spent many late nights patrolling and early mornings leading a hunting party as we are running low on food. We managed to catch a few birds and rabbits but need to find a long term solution to substain food.
"Roman" Jake calls out suddenly as he approaches me I roll my eyea and start walking back to camp. " I thought you were watching the gate" he says harshly. I stop suddenly and look at him irritated. "Yeah I am, just needed to stretch my legs a moment" i say tightly trying not to snap.
"you can't just wander off, we need someone watching the gates at all times what if we were under attack"
"Yeah why do t you try watching it, not like you have been having much luck with anything else" I retrot. He looks at me disgusted " I'm doing what I can, you can't expect me to juat fix her as if she is something broken she needs time" he hisses at me. " we don't have time" I snap fustrated. I walk away as my blood begins to boil. I end up right infront of Lindsey hut isn't that ironic.
You need to need to pull yourself together and help me out because they look to you to keep shit under control, and they are your responsibility too and I need you to help me keep them alive." My voice starts off as harsh then turns more to a plea. I force myself to stare into her cold blue eyes that pierce through me, chilling me as she looks like she has already given up, Her hair is a mess of waves an her face has stained tear lines and she has bags under her eyes.
"I don't know what you expect me to do it's like you said it's chaos out there and people are rebeling and we're still being picked off one by one so how the hell do you want me to fix it" she says petulantly. I stare at her with equal coldness. " I want to train you to learn how to fight, and we can take Josphine down, you want her dead after what she did, don't you, I'll help you achieve what Rudy wanted to created, a better place" I respond unyielding. She looks at me spitefully but stands up and nods. I got through to her, as her eyes burn through me, infuriated that I'm trying to intimated her. Good she can use that anger to finish this war.
