"I don't get it, why don't we go to a different isle? The Imperialsh will have ush shurrounded in no time."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m4jwCDoin

"Too many people to move, they'll notice us."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP9Gmbg9pn
"Never shtopped ush before." A pause as the old man spat to the side. "What about fighting then, too little of ush?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vN3sxkLNb
Gob shook his head, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJufbhrbi9J
tired. David could understand that, and he was annoyed he could 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sjjIdrrj1
empathize with Gob. As per Gob's decision every time it was David's turn537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNUuP7Nhxj
to go patrolling Gob accompanied him. At first David found this 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm4N8VDz6H
insulting, he was the paragon of trust after all, but after a few of 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOTS4tlKaB
such patrols he just found it annoying. Ever patrol was usually 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBDwl62YhD
conducted with 3 or 4 people, usually with different people. There were a537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIp63pAwOg
few constants in those groups though, the first was that David and Gob 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fX8JUNFZj
were in them and the second was that someone always asked when they 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7cPA8rt99
would move.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWOOFh70KS
Now David has only been 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQUvm4pWEr
in the camp for a month now and managed to glean some information from 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUoFFQyUR5
the other rebels and just observations. There were three groups of 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGYuaca3O8
rebels. Peasants, peasant-soldiers and soldiers, as David liked to call 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5mdr53uXu
them. Peasants and peasant-soldiers were the people with no, to only 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu6Cr0K0Xy
basic, military training. Such as Denis and his ilk. The soldiers 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgXWw3coHA
weren't necessary from the military, but they had more experience. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo3dnURnzD
Experience wasn't the only difference, civilians and civilian soldiers 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hNCdcTti3
loved and trusted both Gob and Francesca. Soldiers only trusted Gob. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHHH0QjiWC
Which worked out nicely for David as he could use this discord and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPRMovquFU
divided loyalties.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuqVOaO5CE
Another important thing 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkn0KHX6uh
he managed to find out was that the rebels had stayed on the same isle 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlK1e4axXi
for three months. Many of the rebels were unhappy with the prolonged 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsI2uF1xi1
stay, especially the soldiers. This resulted in that question and Gob 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcd6zVrHfNk
giving the same answer to anyone who asked. It was really riveting stuff537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pzfkZ9Xkp
for David, especially after hearing it for the twentieth third time. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jiBQElOrh
Ol' Stevie asked it around two or three times over the past few days to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrTxzpBfUR
their destination.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbLxWEASf1
Today they were out 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVFr1Yv7Jr
looking at the new imperial camp, turning into more of a makeshift fort,537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojk7aHIqzy
being built around the wreckage of the 'Flying Fish'. It was a crude 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4KKavOITT
construction, something that could be easily taken apart. They were 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWgaruDj57
joined by Rock and another rebel, called old toothless Stevie, on 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCafmInx8oz
account of him being old and having lost most of his teeth. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDJXVJZOa1
"Yes, now shut up and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi4n9CcMx3
remember everything you can about the imperials." Stevie shrugged at 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4H8TE1LYo0
that and continued looking through his binocular. David kept further 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK1s46S7a7
away from the pair, watching their backs with Rock, the youth did not 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p3qHbfL0L
become any more talkative during Davids stay in the caves.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIgkmSW4fX
They were at their 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGjzp6fYWz
lookout spot for a few hours at this point and David was glad he didn't 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl4yDPPstH
feel any magical tugs coming from that direction, after discussing it 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKURkVRXkd
with Francesca it turned out that what David felt was a magical tug, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloF4qhnAK5
looked like the imperial soldier wasn't anywhere near it.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54CS3dTEbp
"Alright, that's enough.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtS0rKwtEf
Let's head back." Gob proclaimed to the group and David sighted in 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnJqtWTvxp
relief. Thankfully David was given new shoes, to help him walk, as well 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEw8EyOPAnk
as new clothes and even an eyepatch. The walk itself was silent and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa8axGb0Lf
brutal. Gob set a murderous pace and he didn't look back to check on any537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9Nuh3RGJx
of them except for Rock, who bore it with his usual silence.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme9ktULAMW
David walked in silence 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdUTOn4yRN
as well. More to preserve his breathe, than anything else, as he felt 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnCkiE0qzn
that he would fall to the ground if he even tried speaking. Toothless 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3BrDEtVNW
Stevie may have been old and not have teeth, but he had more stamina 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZEmcvjJy7
than David, farm work really built you up for long hours of activity.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclAqKzR2wd
A walk that would've 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiM2XbMruN
taken most of the day was managed in about half a day. David was so glad537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2xthkHvZZ
to see the damp cave that he was ready to kiss the rocks when he came 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXdZ5oyyz6
inside. The camp itself did not change much over the past month and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8CHfrJ1zB
David was still the new guy. Though he made good strides in integrating 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwFLSwAGZ9
himself as most of rebels waved to him in greeting.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrm8NDideX
"I'll go report to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgV9ejEwUW
Francesca. You can go relax." Gob passed David without a glance at him. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ9xZyvTzs
The fact that Gob didn't glare or spit at David's direction must've 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90mIkWvB5b
meant that he was finally warming up to him! At least it was more than 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZUAWHI4og
David got over the past month, in fact he was ready to give up on ever 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85FH1ouk14
winning Gob over.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgLRTSZYY4
Francesca on the other 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KQPtsLRNa
hand warmed up to him quite fast. As Denis summarized and David 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcG1yJYSoA
confirmed she was a noble, a well read and knowledgeable noble but 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgNLPafhU8
someone who hasn't left her estate a lot and has never traveled outside 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF9smWYkH3
the empire. While David was the well-traveled dashing smuggler. He 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bRSkR2pja
managed to enthrall her with made up stories and adventures. To be fair 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5XSIihh5E
to Francesca she wasn't the only one falling under David's charm. As 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08puCpZPY0
most of the rebels found it hard to resist the dashing rogue act.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNI1blxrcl
David just wished he 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahy6J6zZQ3
could win them over without going on patrols and risking his life. Oh 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEqns2a4SS
well no one said being a parasite was easy.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxlQs5uXVF
Further down the camps 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjRIu2qFPg
he could see Twitch, the nervous brother of Denis. Over the past month 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNPtyEg2vJ
he integrated himself with the siblings, becoming a part of their gang. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnrwc7Uv76
As the siblings were liked by the rebels in general this made them trust537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1S24UmXyTf
David all the more. David decided to join Twitch so he snuck up behind 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRx1F4BuDbL
him. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInVLcwRFuF
"What'cha doing?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWu8i58wM3
Twitch practically jumped out of his own skin. "Agh! Oh D-david. Don't s-scare me l-l-like that."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzhKFwKVIZ
"Sorry, twitch." David said patting the boys shoulder. "Didn't mean to, you know I hate doing it." He loved it537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AY8c9J1k7
Twitch nodded and stood beside David." 'S alright. I-I-I'm just easily sca-ar-ared."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bXr9xgfUu
David nodded. The boy 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nJrAQvnxH
was lucky to have any friends at all." Nothing wrong with being scared."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuWkGgovd9
He said with a comforting smile. "We all have our own strengths, like 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBInMUHeS5
you..." David paused for a bit racking his mind for something to say. "A537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14jEbgWVNZ
poet! A man of dreams! How're your poems going anyway? I still want to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQxsMgvkLH
read them someday."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wuVmfHCd9
Twitch muttered 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdV9GRawjK
something under his breathe. David motioned with his hand for him to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh56DKhTOdi
speak up. "...n-not poems. But son-so-songs."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJTWX9rqip
David stopped himself from shrugging and smiled. "Songs, even better then! Why not create a song for the rebellion?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpcwSDK5mQ
Twitch started shaking 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocMtOa1ks0
his head but before the words: 'No' formed on his mouth a voice 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcI46AN92t8
interrupted them. "A hymn truly sounds marvelous!" Francesca made Twitch537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iWMqCLruQ
jump back even more than David did537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2zmbe1FqA
"I-I-I" He continued in that vain for a while.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTG3jDnDD7
"Speak up soldier!" Gobs537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13ibGgxzRm
voice resounded around the cave, making everyone glance at Twitch, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1A6nOH4Zg
which should've made his stuttering worse. But his fear of Gob took over537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuDvro66XI
any instinct he had.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDUyIxSxVA
"I'mnotgoodenough!" He 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rXhLZlttN
said as fast possible. David was astounded it was probably the first 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCkXZDKoDV
time the boy didn't stutter. Not that he could understand what he said 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bTZD8qulp
now.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVlvEKE67N
"Nonsense." Francesca 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UaRiu2swL
put her hand on Twitch's shoulder. She didn't seem to have any trouble 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7wYuHDsLz
understanding him. "Write me a song when you can, and we will sing it, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGc5KkruCgY
all of us together." She projected her voice to others nearby which 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpP00yjXi9Q
raised a rugged cheer. That just made Twitch hide his face as it went 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNc4PeTRcH
dark red.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHd6SjcTKG
Francesca spared Twitch 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ygwvvyq9Y
one last warm smile and turned to the rest of the rebels standing 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUirdUzQ9ur
around. "It's time for your daily studies! Spread the message!" Both 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRM0aQDDC8
children and adults listened to Francesca, without a hint of 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxnq9ZOWke
disobedience, and started moving in one line to the study cavern, as it 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLX8Kwj6yy
was popularly called.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxBWpJWRMv
The rebels not only 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9MyAivroI
respected Francesca for her leadership and attitude towards the 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x2uqJuWBQ
peasantry, but also her attempts to educate them. Most of the rebels 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc8Gk1ymoK
didn't know how to read or basic math while Francesca was an educated 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr3oGaxLoE
noble, thus she decided to teach everyone in the rebellion the basics. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94Abt8S7BG
No one was barred from the lessons and both young and old were invited 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnaEIe9Crp
to them. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoG29eiM2Gd
David attended one of 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4YkZv07Sb
those lessons but found himself too bored to continue. They were talking537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfZpM7xFJV
about letter and numbers and some researcher named Vesputti or 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIEyeAIb6P
something similar. Thus, he skipped over on those lessons, he wasn't the537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1tvjZ7EdO
only one as most of the adults had decided that they were too old to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡde6wrZrTh6
learn anything new.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHjbNkjJIu
Before leading her group537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4V64XwPk3
to the secluded cavern, Francesca approached David. "I'd like if you'd 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakKMoRcfFJ
dine with me tonight, if it's to your liking?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAaAuZ3TlW
"Of course, I'll see you537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQmdQ3TDt2
later." Francesca did that sometimes, inviting David over. Chatting 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0603mbBraL
about trivialities, like whether he had any more vision about The Five. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsQISdzG9f
Thankfully Jester didn't deign to appear yet so David managed to sleep 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d4KFIK7yd
peacefully, well not accounting the strange dreams about some boy crying537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEacyKTezE
and calling for his mummy. Those dreams made David wake up in a foul 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fBp4Ex7OY
mood, he wasn't certain why but thought it could be because he didn't 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwKMf0PdG0
remember his parents or family.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY45OdWaQ5
Francesca, unaware of 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5balqPrFG
David's thoughts or dreams, nodded with a smile and led her group from 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGusrGDq2LE
the main cavern. Twitch following her and joining his sibling to whom 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLBQ3WmHKN
David waved. Turning around he came face to face with Nook.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQyT6ZLXcQ
"I'm off duty now, got some guys looking for a game. You're in?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdVLDRTRzp
Nook was an interesting 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNRyBcejgA
case, while he was definitely Gob's man he didn't seem to be as 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTUfygHhGh
disciplined as the other soldiers. He was also one of the few soldiers 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vlLUSGxmA
who was friendly with David instead of following Gob's lead and hating 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBWBdyDSuP
his guts. So they decided to have a card game here and there while 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLC2HLRd4Ty
inviting other people, a card game in which David lost more often than 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHvmUVAk60
not. While David hated losing in cards it was a good method of making 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZBMrGzxNT
friends and getting to know people. As well as a guarantee to keep 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYSLa98GRv
getting invited as long as you lost smart and graciously accepted it.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLi5L8mVGi
"Aye, why not Nook. Maybe I'll clean house this time."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDKTNyX8h7
Nook grinned a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCxJS49sPJ
predator's smile and led David towards a secluded table. While gambling 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfMKVpnCMc
wasn't banned or anything, as long as you were off duty, it was frowned 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZDpNGh8NS
upon by Gob. That and most rebels having limited resources. Having only 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFRNaqSYRN
their clothes and weapons stolen from the empire or brought on their 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVg3P5wV1K
backs.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriWLB0B2yw
Thus any card games were537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAFSXLpply
just that, games to pass the time. At least until David proposed to bet537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK73uTuy6Wp
their rations. Everyone received the basic rations few times per day 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8jdl6TSPJ
and it was up to them how much of that they ate. It was barely enough to537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcScHShaPG
feed a healthy adult. As they have been on this isle for a while it was537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGAzgTIluJ
harder to find fresh animals to hunt every day. A lot of the rebels 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCQGiJo4MN
were opposed to that idea as they'd loose on the last bits of food they 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSBUJIrMOL
did have.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK9ljeeoq3
Some did think it was a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW4owTGJWc
brilliant idea and David was sitting down with a few of them right now. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIjyZMTIhK
Nook, he was confident in his card abilities. Apparently before joining 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfDphweGUU
the rebellion he was a militiaman in his village and gambled a lot. As 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw3dNlZ9bo
far as David could see he was more lucky than actually good. Old 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBjEP6wSfq
toothless Stevie, he joked that if he did lose his rations that it would537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIk4w9ajiZ
save his last teeth. He also wasn't afraid to bet most of his rations 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgINCjQUlsf
scaring the other players into folding, a good bluffer. Finally there 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n3LvLCynQ
was Tiruk, a huge man who definitely needed more rations just to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgGUyDayFL
survive. It surprised David anyone could keep that weight with tight the537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEnr0GNqvU
food has been.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hV8goJPxr
They were the four main 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlGtXiX3u4
players who usually joined the gambling games. Sometimes others joined 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU2tg3Ld3v
but they usually stopped after going hungry for a day or two as they 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MtTgG1MdI
lost their rations. These four though didn't give up after losing, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbRSYVhUVo
because they knew that their chances of a feast were just around the 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPaMx4TArB
corner. That fact created a sense of comradeship between the players. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4bGyE4wGP
Even if they were playing against each other they understood the risks 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaBh7u32sP
and accepted them.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFEOHeSavW
"''Ello boys." David 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2KQBUzi6R
said sitting down at the table with Nook. There were nods all around the537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuQPZN046r
table and the cards were dealt. They were playing a card game called 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfkXWKj9GF
match 'n go. Most of the rebels had not heard of the game or at least 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPCONc1eWU
knew it under a different name but most of them caught on fast, it was 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFD6mtSrsI
often just played for fun. But the best games came from betting. As the 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsPZznXJza
risks went higher you tried to fool your opponent into thinking that you537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeq45m4QAHE
had the match or a higher card. David loved risk games like that, he 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpmYIlNQAY
loved reading the other player emotions and using it against them or at 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpj8HuJZzI
least for his own benefit. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmgUPblzUL
Nook was the first to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKTu149E80
play. "I'm betting half of my rations on this. Gots a good deck, that I 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaHkeAO3ZI
do." David could see the plastered smile on his face. At this point 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGpn8JP9Qu
David could tell fake between real in a heartbeat. Nook was bluffing.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciVZy8LOUp
"Alright, I'll call that." David answered.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jC3wukNR6
Tiruk, in answer, just 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJVksenYvy
shook his head and folded. He wasn't risking it. Stevenson with his 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X0fSMGUxU
gaped smile called it as well and cackled a bit.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNUfGnWELf
Next card revealed. A 3 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfyWIIsMV2
for Davids two threes. He'd have to fold that game, too high chance of 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt00YuoM2ox
winning. So it went on and on, rations were won and lost. David won a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEnmuZTvIw
few games but then he bet everything and lost on purpose, made Stevie a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lciTlSQUV
very happy, old, man.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFFFVHytmk
Since David didn't have 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyJwUF3iUS
anything to bet with anymore he made his excuses and left the table. He 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVryvrx8b9Q
took a look around for Gob and didn't see him anywhere so decided it 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEu0LEmKUUz
would be safe to take a walk.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDvDNVn6eP
Another thing he took to537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡha0JF5f45K
doing over the past two weeks was exploring, finding any secret spaces 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntbxnJmRzR
where he might hide. The rebels themselves only found one possible 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2fflHODtH
emergency exit while David found three. Of course the other two exits 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhwNz8eNrQ
only were wide enough for one person to pass through at a time. So it 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcEZSNQTKN
could be that they just didn't consider them as such.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgcPaWkDGD
He also found various 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGAbxCmQwV
hiding spots, not only for him but for items he stole. Weapons, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjFSgcLPnW
ammunition, food and the like. If only a small amount disappeared at a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCDbdp2w80
time no one really noticed and attributed it to absentmindedness. Though537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoXGer41Wf
David believed Gob was getting suspicious so he would need to start 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jlwOavWLg
being more careful.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAo7ECBBv42
The caves themselves 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMULY2kQl0
seemed to go through the whole isle, David didn't believe he explored 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡew04avLikZ
even half of it. Gob tried to send a few soldiers every day to explore 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyObJEc3Vp9
further into the caves, but many were afraid of the dark, believing 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZby1e4P28i
various beasts were residing in them. Refusing to go inside without Gob 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx1GDhcdvI
and since Gob was usually busy either creating or being out on patrols 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6XrXh3JfS
himself that limited their exploring time.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczy8UStEZm
That let David offer his537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJaQoCxsdy
services as an explorer. He would explore the further caves and would 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS72pC3YX8T
report on any worrying circumstances. Gob was reluctant to let him go 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rYswd4kdZ
but was convinced by Francesca that it would be a grand idea as it would537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoe0qzSAPa
free more people for patrols and other duties.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOjkQmGT32
This time though he had a537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcxKvOKCfO
destination in mind. A bit further into one of the pathways, about an 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbt4TsQOggO
hour from the main cavern, there was a small pathway where a thin person537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMLuWZu7nP
could barely fit. Following that pathway, if you could survive the 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz061I1Oju
feeling of getting crushed by the walls, was a pool. David was surprised537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tE1s9L1T7
when he found and astonished when he discovered the water was hot. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N7mdeROI5
That's where he was 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsGxtXT6wF
going now; he needed a clear head for Francesca's meeting. No matter how537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOHkkuEXzM
she acted she was a noble, they always sought the best deals for 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaGvltDUig
themselves, always trying to ledge a situation in their favour. David 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1oz5Fcf5F
would need to be on his toes. Or maybe he just wanted to actually relax 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi3TYGXR07
without anyone screaming or crying, he didn't decide which one sounded 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc1mvOt0Ri
better in his mind.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDEMus0bvM
Thus grabbing a torch as537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLKcJN9QW9
many of the pathways further down weren't lit, he began his, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEAsmLKcvk
uneventful, journey. Luckily he reached his destination in a timely 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv9zuI2HsS
manner, though he hated going through that cramped space. He gave a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPDY5vXuGF
satisfied sigh as he sat down in the pool, his muscles losing the 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvMBF8eY8F
tension he gathered over the past few weeks, the water reached up to his537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzenZ5MgxkL
chest and he dunked his head under the water finally enjoying a proper 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqK1LEdvn7
clean. He was careful to keep track of time but other than that he let 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc2i22FVjp
his mind wander and just blanked out. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XmyLNeQjl
Before he even noticed, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkVXun6m64
to David's disappointment, it was time to leave. He was also saddened by537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5OXWdwPNl
the fact that the water ended up a bit darker after his bath, a way to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4vmjJcxjy
hit a guys confidence. With a sad sigh he put on his dirty and worn out 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9BZ54JU9T
clothes and went back to the main cavern to the sound of activity and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVENWyaXug
the smell of unwashed masses.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR6SWbXR6L
It did seem that David 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAFUOB4FJ6
came back just in time as people were gathered near the cooking pots to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFMPYblIEm
gather their rations. David did the same and then found Stevie, sitting 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlbCFnTive
with some other older rebels, and gave him his rations. Stevie nodded 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre0Vh0yB80
and had a sparkle in his eye. "Maybe nexsht time you can save me 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk9DZJxNpE
teethsh." And he cackled at his joke. David managed a weak laugh that 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvreeruQfF
seemed to satisfy Stevie.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtlnR4d4cU
"Don't keep Francesca 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFUaBhc0su
waiting." Came a gruff voice from behind. David tried to hide his 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzwd1mEqGC
annoyance at the fact that Gob managed to sneak up on him and scare him.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1ajPcYqBT
Some people just had no sense of proper manners.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbT09wBpQl
"Oh I wouldn't dare." 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKJuH8cNV3
He gave a mock bow which seemed to infuriate Gob more. "I was just out 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBwHa1FGB6
exploring, nothing to report so far, sir Gob." Gob just grunted and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJA0MAb0P5
walked away. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczkBAdIkpO
David smiled and waved 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtpz523oUC
after him, the guy really needed to unwind. With nothing else to do but 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqAWlWhyrJ
shrug at that thought David went towards Francesca's room. Even if 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhYrB19Jgg
Francesca did pretend to be all for equality and the like she still had 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmbvT5vLo3
her personal quarters, such as they were, as well as an actual bed, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2G9ryldLD
table, chairs. They were shoddy work at best, crafted quickly by some of537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw0N4VIu5T
the rebels, but they were more than anything any other rebel had. David537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXAAzqRqs1
was impressed by how she had more and yet most still perceived her as 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kX58z4CKa
the paragon of virtue.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdObzkecgg
Her room, as per usual, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnsTGWzbDP
was guarded. But the guard waved him on with a smile. David saw it as a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzI8Q8UUdr
pointless precaution anyway, but what could you do. Francesca herself 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi94H3zH62c
was already seated, with a torch in the middle of the table, a pale 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSWwvRG5XA
imitation of a candle. One thing the rebels had a lot of were torches, 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6YzrGwpbK
to light up all caverns and pathways. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdz88QeDqh
"Oh, David! Please sit" she gestured towards the second chair.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhwub8lZWh
David sat down with a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ccoEB7IkP
nod and smile. They weren't eating anything extravagant, just what the 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQ832gnyBJ
rest were. Dried meat, nuts, sometimes if they were lucky they could 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8sOj8BPWH
even get rabbit or vegetable soup, but that more of a luxury nowadays. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrlYms3P7R
This time it was some dried meat of unknown origin and some water found 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYORuN2mIC6
in a stream. Delicious.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIenrYzt33
"So pleasantries first or business first?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCVGnLk0KV
"I found that going straight to business can ruin a healthy appetite."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVsuTUVglF
Francesca nodded and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsKIcSMPbQ
began to cut her meat with her wooden utensils. While David had similar 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtEeYcMUwI
equipment he didn't really find much use of them and found it better to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0rnpDBN16
eat with his own hands. Made it faster and when you're under cannon fire537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFu1AhEc6N3
fast eating was paramount.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRvOjxT9x1
As expected David 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaRMpS7g07
finished his portion first and ended up waiting for Francesca to finish 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N0sJoJLOt
hers, which took another 5 or 10 minutes. The girl was certainly a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizQENV7Mq3
deliberate eater.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRZBcUz41D
"So on to business." She537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjA8Qt5roF
paused making sure David was ready, once he nodded she continued. "Tell537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazmh0Bfjyr
me, do you know who actually hired your services?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPprf4ZdAvX
"No idea, captain was usually tight lipped about our clients. I just always assumed it was one of you guys."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkklqwIopW0
"In a way. It's someone 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVw7saLHKcg
who's...interested in our cause. One of Gob's friends. He is able to get537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooaLal5bAK
in and out of the isles without arousing too much suspicion."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VgB57xfy6
"Can't imagine you can tell me who it is?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasmseTsoDB
"It's not for me to tell sadly, Gob was adamant that it's best kept as secret." Francesca smiled apologetically "apologies"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWORavRBTs
David waved his hand in a playful manner. "No worries, I'm surprised you're telling me any of this in the first place."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDMF3aXNOG
"Well, there is a 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwVC1k0njq
reason. Since the weapons we got previously are in the Empire's hands 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoF3h4qXVr
and we can't fight them for it." Putting it lightly the rebels never 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpYHqGdvYl
really fought the empire in a straight on fight. Mostly raids and 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡot54f7wR4X
recruiting villagers with their possessions. Easy pickings. "Gob got in 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjTu1KmHmv
touch with his friend again and luckily we managed to set up a meeting 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHN8vhXWSU
in a few days the edge of a different isle.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9M9qD2AKX
"We will also be moving 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoGx7dujFV
our base" she continued, sadly. "I can't keep us here with the danger 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQngH6X2AB
increasing, so we will move slowly, to an isle we were based in before 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpDoiLfE7U
so some will know where to go."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOIZzrsF6r
"That's good, why did 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdoGLxNZIC
you want to keep us here for this long anyway?" While he was annoyed at 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyEhlOrzDg
hearing that question every time he went on patrols, he couldn't deny he537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV60PDZwuBd
was interested in the answer.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4pfTPMjll
"It...It has to do with one of The Five. I can't reveal more in fear that it might interfere with your objective. "537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlM1tQxOq6
David nodded, not a full537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXZDeJKBfM
answer he wanted but to push might create a rift between them. Religion537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU5mVXjVrD
was pretty important to Francesca "Don't worry; you don't have to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALShy2bOzg
reveal anything you don't want want to." He said in a soothing tone537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxOH01ef4v
"Thank you." She said 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53ql9qSXhH
gratefully. "Where was I? Oh, yes. We'll have groups with specified 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDMeArd5fA
leaders going back to that previous isle, they'll lead them and we'll 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPCvTw2zeG
regroup at a specified point."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi23LiWSx3i
"How will you get 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfv1QrMXvaW
everyone over to the next isle?" Isles were divided by cracks, and while537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OnHR14eqZ
some you could jump over, others were so wide you could fit a full 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXNErZ0oIk
city.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwP5GqIqJl
"We have small sky 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpsTxjhPrP
boats. Some of the groups will use it...Others...Others will need to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUzBkXNJGB
find their own way" she said in bitter tones. "I don't like that, we're 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CPqagasnK
abandoning my people. But Gob said it's too dangerous traveling in a big537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvejcNH3l9z
group."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmmiMupHhP
"You're a good leader on your own. You should trust your own instincts." Ah finally! An opportunity to create that rift537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSKvvEjpeE
She gave him a sad smile537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6uT8DzcQt
in response. "Thank you, but I do not a good head for tactics or 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjt73ruaga
military matters. I've had some education on it, but Gob is much better 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvR7wH9QdL
at it." David still wasn't sure just what Gob did before the rebellion. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD7Sa3R5sn
Francesca stated that the past did not matter and as long as they were 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGbdJuThmT
willing to fight for the rebellions ideals they would be allowed to keep537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nSDdV14sj
their past in the past.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0RvIlIqNo
"Now then, back to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9atmVg9Et
business." She said more cheerily. "Myself and Gob will be meeting that 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA7GIW1NEz
person in a few days. We will have guards but I'd also like for you to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3vyqOGfaa
come. You're well-traveled and met many people; your advice would be 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmo8pHB85X
valuable, especially since we'll only be bartering for them."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeAGazCidw
"You'll have it. I'm 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeA2l7RTvBu
more than happy to join you." While he wasn't looking forward to 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtwRYAEfCH
sleeping with all the insects again, it might help his back to not sleep537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfuGlyqj77
on a rock hard surface.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGeUF72YwZ
"Perfect! I'll let Gob know and convince him as well." She laughed sheepishly. "I didn't really confirm this with him you see."537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV0Xokev7Z
"Oh, the guy loves me. It'll be easy." Francesca smiled at that, she knew just how much Gob hated David.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS4KxmuIZI
A lull in the conversation and then a question David was dreading "Did you have any more visions? From the one who chose you?"537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtTAWjSoqO
"Sadly no, I'm as 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm0e0dB7F7
clueless as when I was born." This wasn't exactly true. He knew he had 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP54y8vp3a
to find something, and suspected Francesca was after it as well he 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcDgPDlinz
suspected it was on this isle. Francesca seemed to know more, but she 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvp1HiFqKO
wasn't willing to reveal it. She might hide it under lofty ideals, but 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tpU5fwOdU
she was concealing the truth from both David and the rebels.537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorMY2EnWIs
"Do not worry, I am 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSV5xZ2x9H
su..." before she could continue their whole world rocked. As explosions537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEnzaRNB5p
rang from outside and rubble started falling all around them., hitting 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHx3Q3kHmi
the table and dislodging the torch, casting ominous shadows on the walls537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz5gwx8Fd5
"Wha..." before David could finish his thought a very worried Gob barged in. 537Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoGkZChr2p
"We're under attack, they found us."
