Gwen's pov!
"We're moving to Japan, sweetheart." My mother shoved the секунда plane ticket she had in her hand into my face. "Why are we moving again? "I threw my suitcase on the shelf that held the luggage on the plane and plopped down in my сиденье, место, сиденья by the window blowing the чирок colored hair out of my face. "Don't Ты want your art skills to reach a new level? Well, this is your chance. Plus I can get a job here without your dumb жопа, попка father getting in the way of it." She held onto her кошелек strap that was sitting straight up on her lap. I didn't have any Друзья back in Canada anyhow. All it was is 'Look at the differently dressed freakish girl there! Isn't she weird?' I got used to it after I punched one of Heather's slaves across their face but now I can leave all of it behind me. "Just look for a sign that has our names on it dear." My mother instructed to me as she talked to the lady behind the counter about something that I don't care about. "How am I supposed to- never mind. I'll figure it out." I rolled my eyes, knowing that this is a place where there is barely any English spoken and that the signs are written in Japanese. "Excuse me, are Ты Gwen Nate?" An annoying voice sounded in my ear that didn't have a headphone in it blasting out heavy metal. "Who wants to know?" I turned to the short Japanese woman with a sign that was actually written in English. I grabbed my suitcase and dragged it over to the taxi setting it down. My mother came sprinting towards the car and climbed in, looking in her small mirror and fixing her hair. "I couldn't understand that lady at all." She complained as she continued to swipe locks of hair behind her ears. "Really..?" I mumbled with my arms crossed over my chest. I stared out the window at the people either building wooden carriages или carrying sticks with рыба tied to them. The car came to a sudden stop and I slammed into the back of the driver's ripped up leather chair. "This your stop. Get out." The man looked at us and pointed at the door. My mother quickly scattered out of the car and I slowly got out after her staring at the tall building with signs written in only Japanese of squiggles and whatever. "I suppose this is your art class. Have a great день sweetie." She kissed me on the forehead and walked off down the street. I walked into the building seeing trophies of what looks like a human with his leg kicked in the air. I looked at the walls seeing that there were ancient paintings of stone warriors of the Terra Cotta Army surrounding the grave of their master so that no one would harm the remains. As I continued to walk down the velvet rug with paintings of wars and graves, vases of their language and plants, and armor of the warriors on either side I started to hear sounds of fists slamming against something. I noticed the sound was coming from the ajar door right in front of me with a sign that had Золото Japanese letters written across. I peered through and saw a non Japanese teen striking his fists at a punching bag in jogging pants and a undershirt soaked in sweat. He wandered his eyes from the punching bag over to me with a questionable soft expression in his изумруд green eyes. "Sorry to bother you, but um.." I cut myself off when he walked up to me, thinking he looked a little good looking in my opinion. "Are Ты the new student?" He questioned as he wiped off his face with a towel. Well, I guess warrior training could be еще exciting and eventful than listening to some dude with a beard teaching me the history of art. "Yeah.. that's me." I stammered of a lie and reached out to shake his hand. "Nice to meet Ты um.." He grabbed my hand and shook it with his moist hand. "The name is Gwen Nate and Ты must be.." I slid my hand out from his grip and tried to hide my hand as I wiped the sweat off of it. "Trent Jackson. I moved her from Hanna Alberta, Canada because of my father wanting me to become a warrior but really I'm just a trainer." He smiled as he leaned over a sink and pouring a bottle of water onto his head, water dripping from his spiked jet black hair. I shuffled into place wondering if I did what was right или discovered the new meaning of hell. "The master isn't here yet или I should tell Ты he travels to other schools around Япония teaching the ways of the Samurai to youth." Trent opened a crimson door that led to a garden of many plants and a small pond below. I watched the many weeping willow trees wave their green arms in the wind. We walked up to a small house and Trent opened the curtain viewing a подушка surrounding burnt out candles with it's wax spilled on to the floor. "He should be back soon-." Trent cut himself off and dropped himself to the floor in a bowing position. "Good afternoon, Trent. Who is this boy Ты brought into my meditating room?" The old man stared at me with his fingers twiddled in his long pointy white beard. "Excuse me?" I growled at him with one of my eyebrows up in annoyance. "He is the new student here, Sir. Please forgive him." Trent slowly stood up to his feet with his head down. Apparently I was born a female but somehow magically turned into a male, how lovely. "I shall, but for Ты Trent, I expect еще from you-." I cut him off. "He was doing the right thing. He was just Показ me around, master." I spoke calmly, trying to make a good first impression on him. "Very well then. I won't punish Ты since he insists I don't." He shrugged his shoulders and with a wave of his fingers, all of the candles in the room were lit. In the corner of my eye I could see Trent smiling at me. "Are Ты sure you're a boy?" The old warrior turned to look at me skeptically. "Yeah, sure I am." I deepened my voice. "What's your name, young one?" He questioned. "It is Gwen Nate, Sir." Trent answered for me. "Gwen? Huh. I never heard of any young man in my years named that. I guess it's a new thing. 学習の我が家へようこそ." He chuckled and walked away into the gentle breeze. I just stood there will my eyebrow shot up in confusion. "It means 'Welcome to our Главная of learning' in Japanese." Trent poked fun at my facial expression. "I knew that.." I rolled my eyes. "Sure, sure.. "He continued to laugh. "Well, here's your room." Trent opened up a small little hut filled with three other guys. I blushed and stared down at the floor. "What? Is something wrong?" Trent questioned. "The new guy is just a pussy is all." The guy with piercings all over his face laughed and the other two dudes laughed along with him. "No. Nothing is wrong." I growled and stormed into the back room where only one постель, кровати lied. "Just yell if Ты need anything." He smiled his breath taking smile. "Trent's got a boyfriend!" The piercing guy shouted in a sing-song voice. "Shut the hell up Ты コック吸盤." Trent sneered and threw something at him, causing me to giggle. "Great comeback." The piercing guy rolled his eyes. "Later Gwen and goodbye other ファグス that lives in here." He waved and was gone after the door was shut. "Fuck Ты too, dude!" The piercing guy laughed. "Hey, new dude, what's your name?" Another guy wearing a cowboy hat walked up to me with a пиво in hand. "I'm Gwen Nate." I mumbled. "Gwen? What kind of a guy name is that?" The piercing guy covered his face with his подушка and started to laugh uncontrollably. "That's Duncan. You'll have to get used to his annoying loud mouth. Oh, and I'm Geoff." Geoff shook my hand. "I'm Owen." A large guy tumbled out of the кухня with arms and mouth full of food. "Owen is a sumo wrestler as Ты can already tell.." Duncan watched in disgust as Owen stuffed his face with food. "It's a pleasure meeting Ты all. I'm just gonna go to bed-." Duncan cut me off. "Really dude? It's only 8 pm." He raised an eyebrow. "Who died and called Ты the guy's wife? If the man is tired let him be." Geoff jumped onto his постель, кровати and tucked one arm behind his neck. "Whatever.. I'm just saying." Duncan shrugged. "Well, um.. Okay then. Goodnight." I gave a quick smile before rushing off to bed. As I lied there in постель, кровати I kept thinking about what would happen if someone found out I wasn't a dude. What would the master say? Most of all.. What would Trent say? He would be so upset if he found out I lied to him. I shrugged it all off, knowing that no one is not ever going to find out my secret. I turned up the volume on my iPod full blast and fell into a somewhat deep sleep.
I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
'Til all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought Ты saw me wink, no
I've been on the brink, so..
Tell me what Ты want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
"Get up dude!" I was woken by wooden spoons being banged furiously on pots and pans. I growled and slowly sat up on my постель, кровати with my hands over my ears. "Its about time Ты woke up. We, well I actually thought Ты were dead because Owen stumbled out of постель, кровати and he knocked over a vase on the таблица and it shattered all over the floor." Duncan glared at the blonde headed teen drinking кленовый, клен syrup after he stuffed his face with a stack of pancakes. "I сказал(-а) sorry like a billion times, jeez." Owen complained. "Hey, Gwen! Why do Ты have a pair of panties in your suitcase?" Geoff came laughing out of my room. "Whoa, let me see." Duncan snatched my black underwear from Geoff. "Hubba, hubba." Owen drooled over them. I felt like I was going to vomit when they each took turns smelling it. "I just, uh.. got it from a friend." I mumbled and took it from Geoff. "More like from your girlfriend." Duncan chuckled. I don't know how I'm going to deal with this for the rest of the summer. After getting dressed in the most ridiculous costume that was required for class, I finally found Trent outside sitting on a bench and looking so gorgeous as his black hair waved gently in the breeze. "Good morning, Gwen. Did Ты sleep well?" Trent questioned. "Yeah.. I mean, I guess so." For now on I have to speak to Trent as if I were a guy and not some lovestruck girl. "Guess what, Trent? Geoff found a pair of panties in Gwen's suitcase." Duncan wrapped his arm around my shoulders before he started to laugh. "That's interesting." Trent didn't exactly look impressed about the discovery of women's underwear in someone's suitcase. What a gentleman. "Who's the new guy?" A gray-haired girl came up to me with a smirk on her face, hand on her hip. "His name's Gwen." Trent answered. "Gwen? What a dumb name for a boy." She started to laugh and I tried my hardest to keep my female bitching in. "Leave the guy alone, Heather. He's only been here for a day." Geoff stood up for me. "You don't tell me what to do-." She cut herself off and dropped to the ground in a bowing position. "What is with all this yelling going about?" The master glared at us. "私は、とても残念マスター智子だ。それが二度と起きないでしょう." Heather pleaded for what sounded like forgiveness. "It is quite alright. Carry on." He allowed her to leave. "We're sorry for causing all of this trouble, Master Tomoko." Trent apologized. "Teacher's pet." Duncan mumbled under his breath. "No worries. By the way, have Ты began teaching Gwen yet, Trent?" Master Tomoko finally took notice that I was standing there with a clueless look on my face. "Not yet, Master Tomoko. I was going to, but Heather came alone and started hitting on Gwen." He stumbled on his own words. "Teenagers," He chuckled, "Anyways, please start teaching Gwen soon. I want everyone to pass the samurai test this year." He bowed his head to them and they bowed back before he walked away. "Well, see Ты later guys. I gotta get to class." Duncan looked up at the large clock that stood in the middle of the walkway before he waved to us and began heading to class, Geoff soon following. "Good luck learning today, Gwen." Owen gave me a big медведь hug before he went to his sumo wrestling class. "So, how are Ты liking Япония so far?" Trent spoke up from the awkward silence as we walked towards.. actually, I'm not sure where we're going. "Um, I guess it's okay." I shrugged. "I know, it sucks. Ты don't have to lie to me about that." He chuckled and I began to laugh along with him, until I remembered another lie I was keeping from. "Am I going to have to learn to speak Japanese?" I changed the topic. "If Ты want to know what people are saying around here, then yeah, Ты might want to learn how to speak Japanese." He explained to me in a sarcastic kind of way. We made it towards a square piece of land that was surrounded by a river splashing gently up against the flat and pointy rocks around it. Trent walked across a couple of rocks to make it onto the beautiful square landscape. I followed in his footsteps, almost falling over a couple of times, but I somehow made it safely to the other side. He walked over to a place beside the large willow дерево where he kept his weapons and such, and picked up a bamboo stick. He began to strike the bamboo stick outwards of him as if he were fighting someone. He ran as fast as he could towards the willow дерево and jumped backwards off of it. He then quickly spun around in a круг and broke the bamboo stick against the дерево with a loud crack. I stared in awe at the broken bamboo stick as he wiped his forehead of sweat with a towel. "Think Ты can do that?" He handed me a bamboo stick. "Uh.. sure." I scratched the back of my head. I easily got the whole striking the bamboo stick in front of me down. The hard part was doing a back flip off of the willow tree. I took a deep breath before running towards the дерево and jumping off with my feet. I was shocked and surprised at first that I managed to get this far, but forgot to spin my body and instead slid across the трава on my back. I stupidly got up and went over to slap the bamboo stick against the дерево before falling down to defeat. "We'll come back to this later on." I heard him chuckle. He set up two cement blocks in an upward position before placing a thick piece of wood on вверх of it. He closed his eyes, rubbed his hands, and sent his right hand flying through the piece of wood. One half of the broken wood flew across the трава and the other one fell beside him. "I'm sure I can't do that." I gulped in fear of breaking my hand. "I'm sure Ты can." He smiled and set up another piece of wood. I shakily stood in front of the wood, staring at it as if it would kill me in an instant. "Just close your eyes and pretend you're hitting someone Ты hate." He gave me a pat on the shoulder. I slowly nodded and closed my eyes. I soon remembered Heather being a real сука earlier. I smiled and before I knew it, my eyes were open and there were two small pieces of wood in front of me. "Good job!" He grinned. We practiced most of the день breaking pieces of wood. Trent held up a piece of wood and I punched through it half as if it were a weak piece of paper. He threw pieces of wood into the air and I jumped up and broke them with my fists and feet. "You're doing very good for a beginner." He complimented me. He set up a couple of punching bags and he showed me how to strike properly. Where to knock out a person. Where to cause a person to beg for mercy as soon as Ты kicked them. I began to перфоратор, удар, пунш one of the punching bags and my fists picked up speed. I stopped for a секунда before kicking the punching bag to the ground. "Do Ты think Ты can try that trick I showed Ты earlier?" He handed me a bamboo stick. "Of course." I nodded with a smile. I struck the bamboo stick at the imaginary figure in front of me. I began running towards the дерево and I jumped off of the tree, landing safely on my feet. I quickly spun around and snapped the bamboo stick against the tree. "Well done." Trent bowed his head. He gave me a towel to wipe the sweat off my face. "It's time for dinner." The колокол, колокольчик, белл chimed right after he сказал(-а) that. "So, how was training today?" Master Tomoko walked up to us as we were eating. "It went well." I smiled. "He actually did better than any other beginner I've ever taught." Trent replied in amazement. "You will make a fine warrior in the 武士の戦い." He bowed to me with a warm smile before walking off to talk to his other students. "Did he say 'the battle of Samurai'?" I questioned in complete shock. "Yeah, why?" Trent took another small spoonful of суп into his mouth. "Are Ты crazy? I don't want to fucking die in a battle." I sneered at him with my hands in the air. "Well, that's what we do here. We go through training for a couple of months before going into battle." Trent looked at me with an eyebrow up. "I never heard anyone talk of some battle that will go on." I felt like I could just snap someone in half like I snapped that bamboo stick against the tree. "Actually, there hasn't been a battle of the Samurai in years. There are people outside of Kamaishi who are threatening to attack us. If we don't do something soon, they will take over this learning program and the people outside of it and make us their slaves." He slowly stirred his spoon in his soup. "How many lives are Остаться в живых in every battle?" I asked. "Well, it depends on who we're fighting. The last bloody battle we had was in 07' I believe. I broke my rib cage and had to get a lot of stitches-." I cut him off. "I thought Ты were just a trainer." I looked at him fully. "I am. The trainers don't have to go into battle, but I always do. I am the only trainer who has ever been to battle with other warriors for about a couple of decades now." He looked proud that he stood out among the trainers here. "That's really cool of Ты to do that." I smiled. "Thanks." He looked up from his суп at me with a smile. "So, I guess I'll see Ты tomorrow for training?" I questioned. "Yeah, we'll start learning еще techniques." He explained. "Later dude." My inner guy came out. "Goodbye." He waved before walking back towards his little home. I felt so touched that Trent did all those great things. It really sucks that I'll never get to explain my feelings to him, because Ты know.. it will sound really weird considering he thinks I'm a boy. I slowly opened the door and prayed that my other roommates weren't awake. I sighed of relief when I heard loud snoring coming from their rooms. I slipped into my room and changed into my pajamas before plopping down onto my bed. 'What a день has this been..' I thought to myself before closing my eyes and falling asleep.
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Send it straight to gold
I don't really like my flow, no, so
Many months of training went by and it was finally time for the battle of the Samurai. I really took thought into Trent's words of wisdom the день I was about to quit all of the training and actually leave for art school. He said, 'If Ты think Ты haven't accomplished anything in your life или stuck through with it, maybe this is your answer. Fight in the battle and you'll know your accomplishments in life are complete.' I stood standing in front of my mirror staring at myself. I came here a normal citizen, now I'm a trained warrior. I looked at my somewhat muscular arms and the scars I received while training for the battle. "You ready yet, Gwen?" Trent knocked on my door. "I'm coming, give me a sec." I answered. My cell phone buzzed. I got a text message from my mother. 'How's art school, sweetie? You've been awfully quiet lately.' I began typing, 'Mom, I went to a samurai school and I've been training for months for a battle I'm going to fight in today. If I don't come back alive, I just wanted to say I Любовь you.' I hesitated, but I sent the text message and left my cell phone in my room. "Alright, lets go." Trent escorted me out towards the main gate. There were thousands of warriors heading towards the gate in neat lines of seven. Each warrior had a blank expression on their face and they walked in the same rhythm. Master Tomoko stood upon a large boulder to overlook every warrior in front of the gate. "Tonight, Ты will all fight in the battle you've all been training for for months. I'm not guaranteeing Ты will come back alive, but Ты will look down from your place in Heaven at your town that still has their freedom and feel proud that Ты fought in this battle." He bowed his head and all of the other warriors bowed to him afterwards. You'd think the battle would just be outside the gate или like a couple of miles ahead, but no, not this one. We were walking in the cold and rain for three days to get to our destination. Many dropped out because they were too weak to go on. I stayed by Trent's side the whole time as we walked through the stares and unfriendly glares from the people in the towns we passed. "Do Ты think we'll be there by tomorrow?" I ask Trent as I lie beside him on my sleeping bag in the tent. "I'm sure we will. Goodnight." He whispered so he wouldn't wake the others. "Night." I fell asleep. We woke up early morning the Далее день and began our walking. "We should be arriving soon-." One of the leaders were cut off by a пушка going off. Everyone went silent and stopped moving. Another пушка went off and then we heard screaming. I looked at the вверх of the холм, хилл to see warriors running down with their weapons. Each side came crashing into each other like waves in the ocean. Ты couldn't even hear yourself breath. Everyone was screaming and pleading for mercy, Оружие and cannons were going off. It was just complete chaos. I panicked when I couldn't find Trent. I fought off the other side as I searched frantically around for him. I found him flat on his back as one of the warriors from the other side was stomping on his stomach, causing him to cough up blood. I gave a battle cry before running towards the warrior with my sword and sliced his head straight off. I watched as blood squirted up from the wound and the rest of the body fall to the grass. "Trent, are Ты alright?" I fell to his side on my knees. "I'-I'm fine." He leaned his head over and coughed out blood onto the grass. I helped him up and half carried him over to a безопасно, сейф area where other warriors were slowly bleeding to death. "I'm going to go back to the battle." I whispered. "Be safe." He coughed and leaned his head back on the tree. I wish I could just Kiss him right then, but I didn't have time. I had to help my fellow warriors. When I finally made it back to the war site, the трава was just coated with blood. There were еще dead corps than alive warriors. I heard a gun shot go off and watched for someone to fall to their death. I felt a liquid run down my skin. I looked down and saw that my рубашка was now dripping with blood. I heard Trent scream out my name over the bloodshed going on. I placed my hands over my wound before falling onto my back and slowly closing my eyes.
Tell me what Ты want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
Oh, got no reason, got not shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'mma tell Ты everything
I opened my eyes and I was looking at the вверх of the tent and not a dark, cloudy sky. I tried to sit up, but when I did I groaned in complete agony. I pulled the sheets down and saw a large piece of cotton and a bandage over my gun wound. I also noticed I was naked.. That's not good. I finally got to sit up without complaining and threw my feet over the side of the bed. I slid on a халат, одеяние that was sitting beside the постель, кровати and headed out of the tent. The warriors were sitting around there tents and talking when they saw me walk by and they stopped and glared at me. I just kept my eyes вперед and continued walking. "Have Ты seen Trent?" I asked one of the warriors. He pointed and I saw Trent sitting in front of a огонь carving a stick into a spear. "Hey." I placed my hand upon his shoulder. He stopped carving the stick and sat it down beside the fire. He then stood and turned around to glare at me in silence. "Is something wrong?" I took a small step back. "You lied to me, that's whats wrong." He sneered. "I'm sorry, I didn't-." He cut me off. "You didn't mean to? Really? How long were Ты going to keep this from me? Ты could've died!" He screamed, causing a few heads to turn. "I.." I couldn't find anything to say, I felt so guilty. "Why, Gwen? Why did Ты lie to me?" He demanded an answer. "I just thought maybe I could have some excitement in my life.." I looked down at my dirt covered feet. "Death is excitement to you?" He growled. "I already told Ты I didn't know I would have to fight in a battle! Why can't Ты get that through your damn head?" I shouted in his face. He shook his head before picking up his stick and walked away. I ran back towards the medical tent with tears plummeting from my eyes. "What's wrong, dear?" An old lady came into the tent. "I was just yelled at by someone I- know." I stopped myself from saying 'someone I like'. "Why did he yell at you?" She sat beside me. "I kind of lied to him." I sighed. "Why would Ты lie to him?" She asked. "I just didn't want to go to art school because I thought it was boring.. I wanted some excitement in my life." I mumbled. "Sounds to me like Ты have feelings for him." She smiled. "No I don't." I felt my face grow warm. "You don't have to hide your true feelings from him." She soothed. "I know, but he really hates me now because I lied to him." I felt like I was going to cry. "No, no. He is just disappointed. Ты should've just told him the truth in the first place." She patted my shoulder. "I know.." One stray tear fell from my eye. "Go tell him your feelings." She smiled. "I guess I'll try." I sniffed and slowly got up to go find him. I noticed all of the tents were being packed up and everyone was heading on their way, and so was Trent. "Hey, wait up!" I ran up to him. "No, you're staying here." He continued to walk. "What do Ты mean?" I pulled on his sleeve to stop him from walking. "You aren't coming with us to continue the battle of the Samurai. Ты can just turn around and go back from which Ты came." He growled at me with his eyes burning with anger. He jerked his sleeve out of my grasp and walked ahead of the other warriors. I just stood there motionless with a shocked expression. I looked down at my torn, mud covered boots. I sighed and turned around before looking one last time at the warriors heading to the Далее battle destination and went back the way I came. I heard a twig snag. I quickly turned around to see what it was but there was nothing there. I shrugged it off and continued to walk. Rustling came from the bushes beside me and high above in the trees. I ignored it, but my сердце was pounding like crazy against my chest. I heard chuckling and whispering which made me pick up speed. The rustling of the leaves got louder. By now I was sprinting like I was a cheetah across the grass. What felt like a needle poked me harshly in the neck. I reached up and pulled out a dart from my neck. My vision became blurry, and I began to feel dizzy. Before I knew it I was flat on my back looking up at blurry figures standing over me. "Tie her up." One of them demanded before I passed out. I woke up and I found myself in a closed Космос which made me start to scream. One of the kidnappers kicked the chest thing I was in yelling at me to be quiet. I lifted up the little lid and saw the people who had captured me. They were covered with mud and they barely had any clothing on. "Who are Ты guys?" I stupidly сказал(-а) aloud. "We are a tribe that's been out here for decades and we feast off of any human that trespasses on our land." The guy carrying the chest answered. Oh my God. Cannibals. I banged my fists against the chest and started to scream and shout. A gunshot went off and I grew silent. "Good. Now that Ты know I want Ты to keep your mouth shut, Ты will keep your damn mouth shut!" A dirty old man lifted the lid and smacked me in the back of my head with his rifle. Thunder roared in the sky and it started to rain. "Dammit." One of them groaned. The rain soon started to fall harder and the sky continued to crackle with thunder. The wind was so loud I could hear it in this closed chest. "We're almost there, men. Keep moving." One of the yelled through the loud rain. I think we're near the ocean considering I hear waves slapping against each other. The crashing waves got louder and louder. One of the waves were so intense, it shook the ground beneath the guy holding the chest and it caused the chest to shake. "Tsunami!" One of them screamed. I was immediately dropped to the ground, causing the chest to fall into pieces. I looked over the edge of the boulder I was on to see the guy who was holding the chest in the ocean. He reached out for one of his fellow cannibal's hands, but a wave came crashing down on him and he disappeared. "Get the girl!" The leader demanded. I began to run across the slippery rocks as four crazy cannibals chased me. One fell into the water, another slipped and fell stomach first onto a pointy rock, and two still managed to keep chasing me through this harsh weather. I spoke to soon when a wave rose up out of the water and grabbed one of them as if it were a person and threw him out into the ocean. "Got you!" The cannibal tackled me. I started screaming and crying as I tried pushing him off of me. I kicked him where the sun doesn't shine and stumbled my way across the rocks. He slipped but grabbed onto my leg to keep him up. He then sunk his vampire like teeth into my leg and I cried out in pain. I watched in disgust as he enjoyed licking my blood from his mouth. I grabbed a nearby rock and smashed it against his face and he fell onto the rocks below, his blood squirting up into my face. As I was running, I looked back and saw water and other things around it such as boats, cars, and buildings stumbling towards me. I screamed and ran as fast as I could away from it. My speed slowed down when people were running over each other to get to safety. I watched as people were ran over by hundreds of other people. A large glass building fell down in front of everyone's безопасно, сейф way and everyone began to panic. They all started climbing over the glass building, but many kept slipping and falling to their death. The water had now reached us and the things in the water began to slam against people, killing them one by one. A large лодка fell on вверх of me and I went under. It was very hard to see through the murky, bloody water. I looked up and saw many legs swirling and kicking. I saw a creature take a couple of people under the water. I watched as it's gray fin slowly glided past me. I began swimming as fast as I could towards the surface. I burst through the water and my ears were now full of screaming. I grabbed a hold of a rope hanging over the side of the building and somehow managed to pull myself to the top. I jumped over the ledge to safety, but I was too late. The water burst over the вверх of the building, and I and a few other hundred people were sent flying through the water down the roads. I grabbed onto a railing and it stopped me from floating away. I climbed up the four cement stairs and just stood there and watched in horror as people were being dragged by force by the waves. I couldn't медведь watching little children screaming and crying as they were Остаться в живых in the water without their parents. I suddenly remembered my mother and how I sent her that text message earlier today. Knowing she was probably dead, tears began to fall from my eyes. Then a miracle came. I saw my mother screaming and spinning out of control in the water. "Mom! Grab my hand!" I called out to her. Her face was full of happiness and she gladly grabbed onto my hand. "Oh, sweetheart! I thought I'd never see Ты again!" She cried into my shoulder. "I thought the same way." I hugged back. I looked down and saw that the water was slowly rising. "Lets get-." I cut myself off when I heard the building starting to making a cracking noise. I looked up and saw that the building was starting to slowly fall down. "Jump!" I shouted and we both jumped back down into the water and swam away quickly before the building crushed us to death. I began to grab and throw myself at anything to stop us from being dragged down through the water. I came to a sudden stop and I thought my сердце did too. "What's wrong?" My mother held onto me. "I'm stuck!" I cried out. The water was slowly starting to rise and my head was almost under the water. "Get somewhere safe!" I ordered my mother. "I can't just leave Ты here." She started to cry. "Just go-." I was now underwater. Someone jumped into the water and started to get me untangled from the seaweed that was wrapped around my legs. I squinted my eyes to try to make out the figure helping me. The person grabbed me by the waist and pulled me to the surface. "You came back for me." I was now looking into a pair of green eyes. "You saved my life, now I'm now saving yours." Trent smiled. We had to cut the little romantic part short because the water was still coming. He grabbed both me and my mother and threw us up to a railing. I let out my hand and before he could grab it, he was swept away when a лодка hit him in the side. "Trent!" I dived into the water after him. After struggling through the waves for a couple of minutes, I finally had him back in my arms. As we were swimming back, that glass building was heading towards us. As Trent was pulling me up to the railing, a glass shard came flying at me and went straight into my stomach. My mother screamed and Trent watched in complete horror. He lied me down and pulled the glass shard from my stomach. "You're going to be okay." He ripped off a piece of his рубашка and wrapped it around my stomach. It instantly coated his рубашка with blood. His eyes filled with tears and one of his warm tears hit my freezing, pale face. "Goodbye." I leaned up and planted a Kiss on his lips before falling back.
So tell me what Ты want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
I woke up in a hospital постель, кровати surrounded by IVs and beeping machines. "Hello? Trent?" I looked over and saw him sitting in a chair with his face in his hands. "Gwen!" He looked up with sad teary eyes, but a joyful smile. He ran over and gently hugged me. "I'm so sorry I abandoned Ты like that! I promise it will never happen again!" He sobbed into my shoulder. "Trent, it's alright. I'm alive. See?" I chuckled. "No, it's not alright. Ты almost died." Hearing him say the same line again before. "Trent, please-." He cut me off. "No, I made the problem worse. Ты left and Ты almost got yourself killed like I almost did before. It's all my fault-." I cut him off with my lips upon his. We just sat there for минуты enjoying the warm, passionate kiss. "I really appreciate Ты for coming back for me." I pulled away and placed my hand upon his cheek. "Well.. I never thought I'd care so much about you-." I cut him off. "Why? Because now Ты figured out I'm a girl?" I smirked. "No. Before I knew Ты were a girl, Ты were like a real friend to me. Ты were always there for me and finding out Ты were a girl made me realize Ты were toughest girl I've ever met and I didn't think any girl could've done anything like you've gone through. I was just mixed up with emotions at the time when I found out Ты were a girl. It was of me training Ты for a battle and Ты almost getting killed and having real feelings for Ты because Ты can do еще than any other girl could do." He whispered as he stared longingly into my eyes. "That's so sweet." I whispered so softly I could barely hear myself. "Gwen, my precious baby! You're alive!" My mother barged into the room and through her arms around me. "Missed Ты too." I coughed out as she nearly choked me to death with her arms holding me tight. "I'm sorry." She let go. She finally noticed Trent was sitting beside my bed, holding my hand. "Awh." She giggled. I turned away from her and blushed. "You know, this guy stayed up all night by your side as Ты were recovering." She smirked at me. I looked at Trent and saw his cheeks turn red. "So, Gwen-." My mother cut him off. "By the way, Gwen, we're leaving Япония in a couple of days. We're not living in this destructive town anymore." She explained. I felt my сердце shatter into a million pieces. I looked at Trent and he was staring at the floor with sadness filling his eyes. "Fine.." I sighed. Days passed by quickly as I sat in the hospital recovering. Trent and I spent hours talking about each others' lives. I learned so much about him. It was that time where I was standing at the door to the apartment with my suitcase and I was full of sorrow. "I'm gonna miss you." I turned to Trent with tears filling my eyes. "I'll miss Ты too." He wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close. We sobbed in each others' arms for a while before my mom came through the apartment door saying that it was time to go. "Goodbye.." I whispered and walked away. "Gwen, wait!" Trent came running up to me. "What is it-?" I turned around and found him on his knees. "Gwen, please stay with me." He took my hands into his as he stared deeply into my eyes. "But.." I looked at my mom waiting in the car. "Oh, please Gwen! I Любовь Ты like I've never loved anyone before. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Please, don't go.." His eyes became watery. "You can stay." My mother was now standing in front of the car. "Are Ты sure?" I looked at her and she nodded. "You're old enough to live on your own. I think you'll be happier here with Trent." She smiled. Trent stood up and grabbed me by the waist and spun me around, his lips upon mine. "Goodbye mom." I gave her a tight hug. "Goodbye. Have fun." She waved and drove off in her car. A couple of days later Trent proposed to me at ужин we had at the apartment. "I Любовь you." He kissed my neck as we lied there in bed, naked. "I Любовь Ты too." I mumbled through kisses.
So tell me what Ты want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
All my secrets away, all my secrets away
"We're moving to Japan, sweetheart." My mother shoved the секунда plane ticket she had in her hand into my face. "Why are we moving again? "I threw my suitcase on the shelf that held the luggage on the plane and plopped down in my сиденье, место, сиденья by the window blowing the чирок colored hair out of my face. "Don't Ты want your art skills to reach a new level? Well, this is your chance. Plus I can get a job here without your dumb жопа, попка father getting in the way of it." She held onto her кошелек strap that was sitting straight up on her lap. I didn't have any Друзья back in Canada anyhow. All it was is 'Look at the differently dressed freakish girl there! Isn't she weird?' I got used to it after I punched one of Heather's slaves across their face but now I can leave all of it behind me. "Just look for a sign that has our names on it dear." My mother instructed to me as she talked to the lady behind the counter about something that I don't care about. "How am I supposed to- never mind. I'll figure it out." I rolled my eyes, knowing that this is a place where there is barely any English spoken and that the signs are written in Japanese. "Excuse me, are Ты Gwen Nate?" An annoying voice sounded in my ear that didn't have a headphone in it blasting out heavy metal. "Who wants to know?" I turned to the short Japanese woman with a sign that was actually written in English. I grabbed my suitcase and dragged it over to the taxi setting it down. My mother came sprinting towards the car and climbed in, looking in her small mirror and fixing her hair. "I couldn't understand that lady at all." She complained as she continued to swipe locks of hair behind her ears. "Really..?" I mumbled with my arms crossed over my chest. I stared out the window at the people either building wooden carriages или carrying sticks with рыба tied to them. The car came to a sudden stop and I slammed into the back of the driver's ripped up leather chair. "This your stop. Get out." The man looked at us and pointed at the door. My mother quickly scattered out of the car and I slowly got out after her staring at the tall building with signs written in only Japanese of squiggles and whatever. "I suppose this is your art class. Have a great день sweetie." She kissed me on the forehead and walked off down the street. I walked into the building seeing trophies of what looks like a human with his leg kicked in the air. I looked at the walls seeing that there were ancient paintings of stone warriors of the Terra Cotta Army surrounding the grave of their master so that no one would harm the remains. As I continued to walk down the velvet rug with paintings of wars and graves, vases of their language and plants, and armor of the warriors on either side I started to hear sounds of fists slamming against something. I noticed the sound was coming from the ajar door right in front of me with a sign that had Золото Japanese letters written across. I peered through and saw a non Japanese teen striking his fists at a punching bag in jogging pants and a undershirt soaked in sweat. He wandered his eyes from the punching bag over to me with a questionable soft expression in his изумруд green eyes. "Sorry to bother you, but um.." I cut myself off when he walked up to me, thinking he looked a little good looking in my opinion. "Are Ты the new student?" He questioned as he wiped off his face with a towel. Well, I guess warrior training could be еще exciting and eventful than listening to some dude with a beard teaching me the history of art. "Yeah.. that's me." I stammered of a lie and reached out to shake his hand. "Nice to meet Ты um.." He grabbed my hand and shook it with his moist hand. "The name is Gwen Nate and Ты must be.." I slid my hand out from his grip and tried to hide my hand as I wiped the sweat off of it. "Trent Jackson. I moved her from Hanna Alberta, Canada because of my father wanting me to become a warrior but really I'm just a trainer." He smiled as he leaned over a sink and pouring a bottle of water onto his head, water dripping from his spiked jet black hair. I shuffled into place wondering if I did what was right или discovered the new meaning of hell. "The master isn't here yet или I should tell Ты he travels to other schools around Япония teaching the ways of the Samurai to youth." Trent opened a crimson door that led to a garden of many plants and a small pond below. I watched the many weeping willow trees wave their green arms in the wind. We walked up to a small house and Trent opened the curtain viewing a подушка surrounding burnt out candles with it's wax spilled on to the floor. "He should be back soon-." Trent cut himself off and dropped himself to the floor in a bowing position. "Good afternoon, Trent. Who is this boy Ты brought into my meditating room?" The old man stared at me with his fingers twiddled in his long pointy white beard. "Excuse me?" I growled at him with one of my eyebrows up in annoyance. "He is the new student here, Sir. Please forgive him." Trent slowly stood up to his feet with his head down. Apparently I was born a female but somehow magically turned into a male, how lovely. "I shall, but for Ты Trent, I expect еще from you-." I cut him off. "He was doing the right thing. He was just Показ me around, master." I spoke calmly, trying to make a good first impression on him. "Very well then. I won't punish Ты since he insists I don't." He shrugged his shoulders and with a wave of his fingers, all of the candles in the room were lit. In the corner of my eye I could see Trent smiling at me. "Are Ты sure you're a boy?" The old warrior turned to look at me skeptically. "Yeah, sure I am." I deepened my voice. "What's your name, young one?" He questioned. "It is Gwen Nate, Sir." Trent answered for me. "Gwen? Huh. I never heard of any young man in my years named that. I guess it's a new thing. 学習の我が家へようこそ." He chuckled and walked away into the gentle breeze. I just stood there will my eyebrow shot up in confusion. "It means 'Welcome to our Главная of learning' in Japanese." Trent poked fun at my facial expression. "I knew that.." I rolled my eyes. "Sure, sure.. "He continued to laugh. "Well, here's your room." Trent opened up a small little hut filled with three other guys. I blushed and stared down at the floor. "What? Is something wrong?" Trent questioned. "The new guy is just a pussy is all." The guy with piercings all over his face laughed and the other two dudes laughed along with him. "No. Nothing is wrong." I growled and stormed into the back room where only one постель, кровати lied. "Just yell if Ты need anything." He smiled his breath taking smile. "Trent's got a boyfriend!" The piercing guy shouted in a sing-song voice. "Shut the hell up Ты コック吸盤." Trent sneered and threw something at him, causing me to giggle. "Great comeback." The piercing guy rolled his eyes. "Later Gwen and goodbye other ファグス that lives in here." He waved and was gone after the door was shut. "Fuck Ты too, dude!" The piercing guy laughed. "Hey, new dude, what's your name?" Another guy wearing a cowboy hat walked up to me with a пиво in hand. "I'm Gwen Nate." I mumbled. "Gwen? What kind of a guy name is that?" The piercing guy covered his face with his подушка and started to laugh uncontrollably. "That's Duncan. You'll have to get used to his annoying loud mouth. Oh, and I'm Geoff." Geoff shook my hand. "I'm Owen." A large guy tumbled out of the кухня with arms and mouth full of food. "Owen is a sumo wrestler as Ты can already tell.." Duncan watched in disgust as Owen stuffed his face with food. "It's a pleasure meeting Ты all. I'm just gonna go to bed-." Duncan cut me off. "Really dude? It's only 8 pm." He raised an eyebrow. "Who died and called Ты the guy's wife? If the man is tired let him be." Geoff jumped onto his постель, кровати and tucked one arm behind his neck. "Whatever.. I'm just saying." Duncan shrugged. "Well, um.. Okay then. Goodnight." I gave a quick smile before rushing off to bed. As I lied there in постель, кровати I kept thinking about what would happen if someone found out I wasn't a dude. What would the master say? Most of all.. What would Trent say? He would be so upset if he found out I lied to him. I shrugged it all off, knowing that no one is not ever going to find out my secret. I turned up the volume on my iPod full blast and fell into a somewhat deep sleep.
I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
'Til all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought Ты saw me wink, no
I've been on the brink, so..
Tell me what Ты want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
"Get up dude!" I was woken by wooden spoons being banged furiously on pots and pans. I growled and slowly sat up on my постель, кровати with my hands over my ears. "Its about time Ты woke up. We, well I actually thought Ты were dead because Owen stumbled out of постель, кровати and he knocked over a vase on the таблица and it shattered all over the floor." Duncan glared at the blonde headed teen drinking кленовый, клен syrup after he stuffed his face with a stack of pancakes. "I сказал(-а) sorry like a billion times, jeez." Owen complained. "Hey, Gwen! Why do Ты have a pair of panties in your suitcase?" Geoff came laughing out of my room. "Whoa, let me see." Duncan snatched my black underwear from Geoff. "Hubba, hubba." Owen drooled over them. I felt like I was going to vomit when they each took turns smelling it. "I just, uh.. got it from a friend." I mumbled and took it from Geoff. "More like from your girlfriend." Duncan chuckled. I don't know how I'm going to deal with this for the rest of the summer. After getting dressed in the most ridiculous costume that was required for class, I finally found Trent outside sitting on a bench and looking so gorgeous as his black hair waved gently in the breeze. "Good morning, Gwen. Did Ты sleep well?" Trent questioned. "Yeah.. I mean, I guess so." For now on I have to speak to Trent as if I were a guy and not some lovestruck girl. "Guess what, Trent? Geoff found a pair of panties in Gwen's suitcase." Duncan wrapped his arm around my shoulders before he started to laugh. "That's interesting." Trent didn't exactly look impressed about the discovery of women's underwear in someone's suitcase. What a gentleman. "Who's the new guy?" A gray-haired girl came up to me with a smirk on her face, hand on her hip. "His name's Gwen." Trent answered. "Gwen? What a dumb name for a boy." She started to laugh and I tried my hardest to keep my female bitching in. "Leave the guy alone, Heather. He's only been here for a day." Geoff stood up for me. "You don't tell me what to do-." She cut herself off and dropped to the ground in a bowing position. "What is with all this yelling going about?" The master glared at us. "私は、とても残念マスター智子だ。それが二度と起きないでしょう." Heather pleaded for what sounded like forgiveness. "It is quite alright. Carry on." He allowed her to leave. "We're sorry for causing all of this trouble, Master Tomoko." Trent apologized. "Teacher's pet." Duncan mumbled under his breath. "No worries. By the way, have Ты began teaching Gwen yet, Trent?" Master Tomoko finally took notice that I was standing there with a clueless look on my face. "Not yet, Master Tomoko. I was going to, but Heather came alone and started hitting on Gwen." He stumbled on his own words. "Teenagers," He chuckled, "Anyways, please start teaching Gwen soon. I want everyone to pass the samurai test this year." He bowed his head to them and they bowed back before he walked away. "Well, see Ты later guys. I gotta get to class." Duncan looked up at the large clock that stood in the middle of the walkway before he waved to us and began heading to class, Geoff soon following. "Good luck learning today, Gwen." Owen gave me a big медведь hug before he went to his sumo wrestling class. "So, how are Ты liking Япония so far?" Trent spoke up from the awkward silence as we walked towards.. actually, I'm not sure where we're going. "Um, I guess it's okay." I shrugged. "I know, it sucks. Ты don't have to lie to me about that." He chuckled and I began to laugh along with him, until I remembered another lie I was keeping from. "Am I going to have to learn to speak Japanese?" I changed the topic. "If Ты want to know what people are saying around here, then yeah, Ты might want to learn how to speak Japanese." He explained to me in a sarcastic kind of way. We made it towards a square piece of land that was surrounded by a river splashing gently up against the flat and pointy rocks around it. Trent walked across a couple of rocks to make it onto the beautiful square landscape. I followed in his footsteps, almost falling over a couple of times, but I somehow made it safely to the other side. He walked over to a place beside the large willow дерево where he kept his weapons and such, and picked up a bamboo stick. He began to strike the bamboo stick outwards of him as if he were fighting someone. He ran as fast as he could towards the willow дерево and jumped backwards off of it. He then quickly spun around in a круг and broke the bamboo stick against the дерево with a loud crack. I stared in awe at the broken bamboo stick as he wiped his forehead of sweat with a towel. "Think Ты can do that?" He handed me a bamboo stick. "Uh.. sure." I scratched the back of my head. I easily got the whole striking the bamboo stick in front of me down. The hard part was doing a back flip off of the willow tree. I took a deep breath before running towards the дерево and jumping off with my feet. I was shocked and surprised at first that I managed to get this far, but forgot to spin my body and instead slid across the трава on my back. I stupidly got up and went over to slap the bamboo stick against the дерево before falling down to defeat. "We'll come back to this later on." I heard him chuckle. He set up two cement blocks in an upward position before placing a thick piece of wood on вверх of it. He closed his eyes, rubbed his hands, and sent his right hand flying through the piece of wood. One half of the broken wood flew across the трава and the other one fell beside him. "I'm sure I can't do that." I gulped in fear of breaking my hand. "I'm sure Ты can." He smiled and set up another piece of wood. I shakily stood in front of the wood, staring at it as if it would kill me in an instant. "Just close your eyes and pretend you're hitting someone Ты hate." He gave me a pat on the shoulder. I slowly nodded and closed my eyes. I soon remembered Heather being a real сука earlier. I smiled and before I knew it, my eyes were open and there were two small pieces of wood in front of me. "Good job!" He grinned. We practiced most of the день breaking pieces of wood. Trent held up a piece of wood and I punched through it half as if it were a weak piece of paper. He threw pieces of wood into the air and I jumped up and broke them with my fists and feet. "You're doing very good for a beginner." He complimented me. He set up a couple of punching bags and he showed me how to strike properly. Where to knock out a person. Where to cause a person to beg for mercy as soon as Ты kicked them. I began to перфоратор, удар, пунш one of the punching bags and my fists picked up speed. I stopped for a секунда before kicking the punching bag to the ground. "Do Ты think Ты can try that trick I showed Ты earlier?" He handed me a bamboo stick. "Of course." I nodded with a smile. I struck the bamboo stick at the imaginary figure in front of me. I began running towards the дерево and I jumped off of the tree, landing safely on my feet. I quickly spun around and snapped the bamboo stick against the tree. "Well done." Trent bowed his head. He gave me a towel to wipe the sweat off my face. "It's time for dinner." The колокол, колокольчик, белл chimed right after he сказал(-а) that. "So, how was training today?" Master Tomoko walked up to us as we were eating. "It went well." I smiled. "He actually did better than any other beginner I've ever taught." Trent replied in amazement. "You will make a fine warrior in the 武士の戦い." He bowed to me with a warm smile before walking off to talk to his other students. "Did he say 'the battle of Samurai'?" I questioned in complete shock. "Yeah, why?" Trent took another small spoonful of суп into his mouth. "Are Ты crazy? I don't want to fucking die in a battle." I sneered at him with my hands in the air. "Well, that's what we do here. We go through training for a couple of months before going into battle." Trent looked at me with an eyebrow up. "I never heard anyone talk of some battle that will go on." I felt like I could just snap someone in half like I snapped that bamboo stick against the tree. "Actually, there hasn't been a battle of the Samurai in years. There are people outside of Kamaishi who are threatening to attack us. If we don't do something soon, they will take over this learning program and the people outside of it and make us their slaves." He slowly stirred his spoon in his soup. "How many lives are Остаться в живых in every battle?" I asked. "Well, it depends on who we're fighting. The last bloody battle we had was in 07' I believe. I broke my rib cage and had to get a lot of stitches-." I cut him off. "I thought Ты were just a trainer." I looked at him fully. "I am. The trainers don't have to go into battle, but I always do. I am the only trainer who has ever been to battle with other warriors for about a couple of decades now." He looked proud that he stood out among the trainers here. "That's really cool of Ты to do that." I smiled. "Thanks." He looked up from his суп at me with a smile. "So, I guess I'll see Ты tomorrow for training?" I questioned. "Yeah, we'll start learning еще techniques." He explained. "Later dude." My inner guy came out. "Goodbye." He waved before walking back towards his little home. I felt so touched that Trent did all those great things. It really sucks that I'll never get to explain my feelings to him, because Ты know.. it will sound really weird considering he thinks I'm a boy. I slowly opened the door and prayed that my other roommates weren't awake. I sighed of relief when I heard loud snoring coming from their rooms. I slipped into my room and changed into my pajamas before plopping down onto my bed. 'What a день has this been..' I thought to myself before closing my eyes and falling asleep.
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Send it straight to gold
I don't really like my flow, no, so
Many months of training went by and it was finally time for the battle of the Samurai. I really took thought into Trent's words of wisdom the день I was about to quit all of the training and actually leave for art school. He said, 'If Ты think Ты haven't accomplished anything in your life или stuck through with it, maybe this is your answer. Fight in the battle and you'll know your accomplishments in life are complete.' I stood standing in front of my mirror staring at myself. I came here a normal citizen, now I'm a trained warrior. I looked at my somewhat muscular arms and the scars I received while training for the battle. "You ready yet, Gwen?" Trent knocked on my door. "I'm coming, give me a sec." I answered. My cell phone buzzed. I got a text message from my mother. 'How's art school, sweetie? You've been awfully quiet lately.' I began typing, 'Mom, I went to a samurai school and I've been training for months for a battle I'm going to fight in today. If I don't come back alive, I just wanted to say I Любовь you.' I hesitated, but I sent the text message and left my cell phone in my room. "Alright, lets go." Trent escorted me out towards the main gate. There were thousands of warriors heading towards the gate in neat lines of seven. Each warrior had a blank expression on their face and they walked in the same rhythm. Master Tomoko stood upon a large boulder to overlook every warrior in front of the gate. "Tonight, Ты will all fight in the battle you've all been training for for months. I'm not guaranteeing Ты will come back alive, but Ты will look down from your place in Heaven at your town that still has their freedom and feel proud that Ты fought in this battle." He bowed his head and all of the other warriors bowed to him afterwards. You'd think the battle would just be outside the gate или like a couple of miles ahead, but no, not this one. We were walking in the cold and rain for three days to get to our destination. Many dropped out because they were too weak to go on. I stayed by Trent's side the whole time as we walked through the stares and unfriendly glares from the people in the towns we passed. "Do Ты think we'll be there by tomorrow?" I ask Trent as I lie beside him on my sleeping bag in the tent. "I'm sure we will. Goodnight." He whispered so he wouldn't wake the others. "Night." I fell asleep. We woke up early morning the Далее день and began our walking. "We should be arriving soon-." One of the leaders were cut off by a пушка going off. Everyone went silent and stopped moving. Another пушка went off and then we heard screaming. I looked at the вверх of the холм, хилл to see warriors running down with their weapons. Each side came crashing into each other like waves in the ocean. Ты couldn't even hear yourself breath. Everyone was screaming and pleading for mercy, Оружие and cannons were going off. It was just complete chaos. I panicked when I couldn't find Trent. I fought off the other side as I searched frantically around for him. I found him flat on his back as one of the warriors from the other side was stomping on his stomach, causing him to cough up blood. I gave a battle cry before running towards the warrior with my sword and sliced his head straight off. I watched as blood squirted up from the wound and the rest of the body fall to the grass. "Trent, are Ты alright?" I fell to his side on my knees. "I'-I'm fine." He leaned his head over and coughed out blood onto the grass. I helped him up and half carried him over to a безопасно, сейф area where other warriors were slowly bleeding to death. "I'm going to go back to the battle." I whispered. "Be safe." He coughed and leaned his head back on the tree. I wish I could just Kiss him right then, but I didn't have time. I had to help my fellow warriors. When I finally made it back to the war site, the трава was just coated with blood. There were еще dead corps than alive warriors. I heard a gun shot go off and watched for someone to fall to their death. I felt a liquid run down my skin. I looked down and saw that my рубашка was now dripping with blood. I heard Trent scream out my name over the bloodshed going on. I placed my hands over my wound before falling onto my back and slowly closing my eyes.
Tell me what Ты want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
Oh, got no reason, got not shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'mma tell Ты everything
I opened my eyes and I was looking at the вверх of the tent and not a dark, cloudy sky. I tried to sit up, but when I did I groaned in complete agony. I pulled the sheets down and saw a large piece of cotton and a bandage over my gun wound. I also noticed I was naked.. That's not good. I finally got to sit up without complaining and threw my feet over the side of the bed. I slid on a халат, одеяние that was sitting beside the постель, кровати and headed out of the tent. The warriors were sitting around there tents and talking when they saw me walk by and they stopped and glared at me. I just kept my eyes вперед and continued walking. "Have Ты seen Trent?" I asked one of the warriors. He pointed and I saw Trent sitting in front of a огонь carving a stick into a spear. "Hey." I placed my hand upon his shoulder. He stopped carving the stick and sat it down beside the fire. He then stood and turned around to glare at me in silence. "Is something wrong?" I took a small step back. "You lied to me, that's whats wrong." He sneered. "I'm sorry, I didn't-." He cut me off. "You didn't mean to? Really? How long were Ты going to keep this from me? Ты could've died!" He screamed, causing a few heads to turn. "I.." I couldn't find anything to say, I felt so guilty. "Why, Gwen? Why did Ты lie to me?" He demanded an answer. "I just thought maybe I could have some excitement in my life.." I looked down at my dirt covered feet. "Death is excitement to you?" He growled. "I already told Ты I didn't know I would have to fight in a battle! Why can't Ты get that through your damn head?" I shouted in his face. He shook his head before picking up his stick and walked away. I ran back towards the medical tent with tears plummeting from my eyes. "What's wrong, dear?" An old lady came into the tent. "I was just yelled at by someone I- know." I stopped myself from saying 'someone I like'. "Why did he yell at you?" She sat beside me. "I kind of lied to him." I sighed. "Why would Ты lie to him?" She asked. "I just didn't want to go to art school because I thought it was boring.. I wanted some excitement in my life." I mumbled. "Sounds to me like Ты have feelings for him." She smiled. "No I don't." I felt my face grow warm. "You don't have to hide your true feelings from him." She soothed. "I know, but he really hates me now because I lied to him." I felt like I was going to cry. "No, no. He is just disappointed. Ты should've just told him the truth in the first place." She patted my shoulder. "I know.." One stray tear fell from my eye. "Go tell him your feelings." She smiled. "I guess I'll try." I sniffed and slowly got up to go find him. I noticed all of the tents were being packed up and everyone was heading on their way, and so was Trent. "Hey, wait up!" I ran up to him. "No, you're staying here." He continued to walk. "What do Ты mean?" I pulled on his sleeve to stop him from walking. "You aren't coming with us to continue the battle of the Samurai. Ты can just turn around and go back from which Ты came." He growled at me with his eyes burning with anger. He jerked his sleeve out of my grasp and walked ahead of the other warriors. I just stood there motionless with a shocked expression. I looked down at my torn, mud covered boots. I sighed and turned around before looking one last time at the warriors heading to the Далее battle destination and went back the way I came. I heard a twig snag. I quickly turned around to see what it was but there was nothing there. I shrugged it off and continued to walk. Rustling came from the bushes beside me and high above in the trees. I ignored it, but my сердце was pounding like crazy against my chest. I heard chuckling and whispering which made me pick up speed. The rustling of the leaves got louder. By now I was sprinting like I was a cheetah across the grass. What felt like a needle poked me harshly in the neck. I reached up and pulled out a dart from my neck. My vision became blurry, and I began to feel dizzy. Before I knew it I was flat on my back looking up at blurry figures standing over me. "Tie her up." One of them demanded before I passed out. I woke up and I found myself in a closed Космос which made me start to scream. One of the kidnappers kicked the chest thing I was in yelling at me to be quiet. I lifted up the little lid and saw the people who had captured me. They were covered with mud and they barely had any clothing on. "Who are Ты guys?" I stupidly сказал(-а) aloud. "We are a tribe that's been out here for decades and we feast off of any human that trespasses on our land." The guy carrying the chest answered. Oh my God. Cannibals. I banged my fists against the chest and started to scream and shout. A gunshot went off and I grew silent. "Good. Now that Ты know I want Ты to keep your mouth shut, Ты will keep your damn mouth shut!" A dirty old man lifted the lid and smacked me in the back of my head with his rifle. Thunder roared in the sky and it started to rain. "Dammit." One of them groaned. The rain soon started to fall harder and the sky continued to crackle with thunder. The wind was so loud I could hear it in this closed chest. "We're almost there, men. Keep moving." One of the yelled through the loud rain. I think we're near the ocean considering I hear waves slapping against each other. The crashing waves got louder and louder. One of the waves were so intense, it shook the ground beneath the guy holding the chest and it caused the chest to shake. "Tsunami!" One of them screamed. I was immediately dropped to the ground, causing the chest to fall into pieces. I looked over the edge of the boulder I was on to see the guy who was holding the chest in the ocean. He reached out for one of his fellow cannibal's hands, but a wave came crashing down on him and he disappeared. "Get the girl!" The leader demanded. I began to run across the slippery rocks as four crazy cannibals chased me. One fell into the water, another slipped and fell stomach first onto a pointy rock, and two still managed to keep chasing me through this harsh weather. I spoke to soon when a wave rose up out of the water and grabbed one of them as if it were a person and threw him out into the ocean. "Got you!" The cannibal tackled me. I started screaming and crying as I tried pushing him off of me. I kicked him where the sun doesn't shine and stumbled my way across the rocks. He slipped but grabbed onto my leg to keep him up. He then sunk his vampire like teeth into my leg and I cried out in pain. I watched in disgust as he enjoyed licking my blood from his mouth. I grabbed a nearby rock and smashed it against his face and he fell onto the rocks below, his blood squirting up into my face. As I was running, I looked back and saw water and other things around it such as boats, cars, and buildings stumbling towards me. I screamed and ran as fast as I could away from it. My speed slowed down when people were running over each other to get to safety. I watched as people were ran over by hundreds of other people. A large glass building fell down in front of everyone's безопасно, сейф way and everyone began to panic. They all started climbing over the glass building, but many kept slipping and falling to their death. The water had now reached us and the things in the water began to slam against people, killing them one by one. A large лодка fell on вверх of me and I went under. It was very hard to see through the murky, bloody water. I looked up and saw many legs swirling and kicking. I saw a creature take a couple of people under the water. I watched as it's gray fin slowly glided past me. I began swimming as fast as I could towards the surface. I burst through the water and my ears were now full of screaming. I grabbed a hold of a rope hanging over the side of the building and somehow managed to pull myself to the top. I jumped over the ledge to safety, but I was too late. The water burst over the вверх of the building, and I and a few other hundred people were sent flying through the water down the roads. I grabbed onto a railing and it stopped me from floating away. I climbed up the four cement stairs and just stood there and watched in horror as people were being dragged by force by the waves. I couldn't медведь watching little children screaming and crying as they were Остаться в живых in the water without their parents. I suddenly remembered my mother and how I sent her that text message earlier today. Knowing she was probably dead, tears began to fall from my eyes. Then a miracle came. I saw my mother screaming and spinning out of control in the water. "Mom! Grab my hand!" I called out to her. Her face was full of happiness and she gladly grabbed onto my hand. "Oh, sweetheart! I thought I'd never see Ты again!" She cried into my shoulder. "I thought the same way." I hugged back. I looked down and saw that the water was slowly rising. "Lets get-." I cut myself off when I heard the building starting to making a cracking noise. I looked up and saw that the building was starting to slowly fall down. "Jump!" I shouted and we both jumped back down into the water and swam away quickly before the building crushed us to death. I began to grab and throw myself at anything to stop us from being dragged down through the water. I came to a sudden stop and I thought my сердце did too. "What's wrong?" My mother held onto me. "I'm stuck!" I cried out. The water was slowly starting to rise and my head was almost under the water. "Get somewhere safe!" I ordered my mother. "I can't just leave Ты here." She started to cry. "Just go-." I was now underwater. Someone jumped into the water and started to get me untangled from the seaweed that was wrapped around my legs. I squinted my eyes to try to make out the figure helping me. The person grabbed me by the waist and pulled me to the surface. "You came back for me." I was now looking into a pair of green eyes. "You saved my life, now I'm now saving yours." Trent smiled. We had to cut the little romantic part short because the water was still coming. He grabbed both me and my mother and threw us up to a railing. I let out my hand and before he could grab it, he was swept away when a лодка hit him in the side. "Trent!" I dived into the water after him. After struggling through the waves for a couple of minutes, I finally had him back in my arms. As we were swimming back, that glass building was heading towards us. As Trent was pulling me up to the railing, a glass shard came flying at me and went straight into my stomach. My mother screamed and Trent watched in complete horror. He lied me down and pulled the glass shard from my stomach. "You're going to be okay." He ripped off a piece of his рубашка and wrapped it around my stomach. It instantly coated his рубашка with blood. His eyes filled with tears and one of his warm tears hit my freezing, pale face. "Goodbye." I leaned up and planted a Kiss on his lips before falling back.
So tell me what Ты want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
I woke up in a hospital постель, кровати surrounded by IVs and beeping machines. "Hello? Trent?" I looked over and saw him sitting in a chair with his face in his hands. "Gwen!" He looked up with sad teary eyes, but a joyful smile. He ran over and gently hugged me. "I'm so sorry I abandoned Ты like that! I promise it will never happen again!" He sobbed into my shoulder. "Trent, it's alright. I'm alive. See?" I chuckled. "No, it's not alright. Ты almost died." Hearing him say the same line again before. "Trent, please-." He cut me off. "No, I made the problem worse. Ты left and Ты almost got yourself killed like I almost did before. It's all my fault-." I cut him off with my lips upon his. We just sat there for минуты enjoying the warm, passionate kiss. "I really appreciate Ты for coming back for me." I pulled away and placed my hand upon his cheek. "Well.. I never thought I'd care so much about you-." I cut him off. "Why? Because now Ты figured out I'm a girl?" I smirked. "No. Before I knew Ты were a girl, Ты were like a real friend to me. Ты were always there for me and finding out Ты were a girl made me realize Ты were toughest girl I've ever met and I didn't think any girl could've done anything like you've gone through. I was just mixed up with emotions at the time when I found out Ты were a girl. It was of me training Ты for a battle and Ты almost getting killed and having real feelings for Ты because Ты can do еще than any other girl could do." He whispered as he stared longingly into my eyes. "That's so sweet." I whispered so softly I could barely hear myself. "Gwen, my precious baby! You're alive!" My mother barged into the room and through her arms around me. "Missed Ты too." I coughed out as she nearly choked me to death with her arms holding me tight. "I'm sorry." She let go. She finally noticed Trent was sitting beside my bed, holding my hand. "Awh." She giggled. I turned away from her and blushed. "You know, this guy stayed up all night by your side as Ты were recovering." She smirked at me. I looked at Trent and saw his cheeks turn red. "So, Gwen-." My mother cut him off. "By the way, Gwen, we're leaving Япония in a couple of days. We're not living in this destructive town anymore." She explained. I felt my сердце shatter into a million pieces. I looked at Trent and he was staring at the floor with sadness filling his eyes. "Fine.." I sighed. Days passed by quickly as I sat in the hospital recovering. Trent and I spent hours talking about each others' lives. I learned so much about him. It was that time where I was standing at the door to the apartment with my suitcase and I was full of sorrow. "I'm gonna miss you." I turned to Trent with tears filling my eyes. "I'll miss Ты too." He wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close. We sobbed in each others' arms for a while before my mom came through the apartment door saying that it was time to go. "Goodbye.." I whispered and walked away. "Gwen, wait!" Trent came running up to me. "What is it-?" I turned around and found him on his knees. "Gwen, please stay with me." He took my hands into his as he stared deeply into my eyes. "But.." I looked at my mom waiting in the car. "Oh, please Gwen! I Любовь Ты like I've never loved anyone before. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Please, don't go.." His eyes became watery. "You can stay." My mother was now standing in front of the car. "Are Ты sure?" I looked at her and she nodded. "You're old enough to live on your own. I think you'll be happier here with Trent." She smiled. Trent stood up and grabbed me by the waist and spun me around, his lips upon mine. "Goodbye mom." I gave her a tight hug. "Goodbye. Have fun." She waved and drove off in her car. A couple of days later Trent proposed to me at ужин we had at the apartment. "I Любовь you." He kissed my neck as we lied there in bed, naked. "I Любовь Ты too." I mumbled through kisses.
