Ken Craig Chapter 5

Cody was freaky awesome! I mean he was running and ducking all over the cave making really cool knives out of stones and throwing dirt in to people's faces. Jone on the other hand just stood frozen not helping at all. I get that he's the youngest here but he's smart! He could have helped us.

Now I stand here on the hill watching Cody thinking to myself. He should be the leader! 

He's standing there with no weapon throwing guys older then us in a panic. When he's about to make his next move though a girl's voice comes from the far side of the hill. "Wait." Her voice is weak but it was still strong enough to make everybody freeze. "Stop." Her voice was solid and she looked determined. She was beautiful. She had twigs entangled in her dark red hair that hanged in a messy ponytail. A side bang that covered her intimidating grey eyes. She wore skinny jeans that were worn and tattered and a camo shirt that was way to big for her. She had huge bags under her eyes and she still looked cute.

Stop it! I said to myself. I stopped staring at her and noticed a boy about my age holding the girl up. He was dressed in a plaid hoodie and dark black skinny jeans with black shaggy hair like mine but more messy (How I don't know.) and light blue eyes. His face was covered with blush as he held the girl steady around her waist. From the blush on his face I can tell the girl was not his girlfriend.

The boy cleared his throat and I stopped staring and started listening. "So um whats going on here Abel?" He stared hard at the leader of the troop. He smiled as he set the girl down gently and he sat next to her on the floor.

The man named Abel looked terrified. "Well......Um..... These three people are trespassing on our territory and we tried to capture them....Well we DID capture them but after....Um...." He blushed and looked at the ground. The boy looked around and looked like he was trying hard not to laugh.

Finally he looked back at Abel and sighed. "Well I guess if there trespassers...." That's when I spoke up.

"Wait!" I shouted so everybody could hear. Every head turned to me as I stood straight and tried to look brave and confident and it worked! "We are not trespassers! These are my friends Cody Danger and Jone Dish!" My voice echoed across the valley. "And I'm Ken Craig!" At my name some people looked startled and even scared. Some crouched down and some muttered "It's him."

Finally the girl got up with the boys help and said. "Come we need to talk." Talk? What kind of talk? But even though my worry's of a trap I still followed her with Cody and Jone, all of the guards behind us.

We were almost to the town or village when Cody leaned over and whispered. "She's cute." It was so stupid of him to do that I almost laughed.

"Dude." I whispered back. "We are maybe about to die and your thinking about her?" Out of the corner of my eyes I saw him blushing.

"Come on she is!" He whispered back. "I wonder if she likes me."

I was about to tell him how weird he was but my words got cut short by the girls. "We are here." I looked up and saw that we walked right into a person's house! "This is Matias's house so please be careful." The boy nodded to the guards and they walked out of here leaving me, Cody, Jone, the girl and Matias.

Cody grinned wickedly. "Soooo can we have the honor of hearing your name?"

The girl looked nervous but said. "Well I think it's Jane...... Maybe." She sounded confused.

Matias looked at her. "You remember?" Jane kind of did a nod.

"Wait you didn't remember what your name was?" I looked at her.

She stared into my eyes. "I'll tell you but first tell me why your here." So Cody told her sense I couldn't talk.

Finally Cody was done. "So yeah. That's it. Now it's your turn." She told us how she ate a fish and found herself here. "Well then." Cody still grinned crazily. "I guess we where meant to find each other I mean not me and you..... Well maybe but um well I meant Ken and.... You know what I'm going to stop talking now." He blushed.

"Your right Cody..." Jane said then stopped blushing. "I mean your right about me and Matias meeting you guys. Anyway you guys should get rest." She looked at Matias. "Mat can they sleep in the kitchen for tonight?"

Matias blushed and said. "Sure but um don't call me Mat again." Jane laughed and motioned for him to help her up then limping on a blushing Matias they went into another room.

I looked at Cody and Jone. "Well let's start settling down." We all called our own property and laid down some pillows and found a old blanket we had to share.

Once we were all settled on the cold stone ground Jone spoke up. "Hey guys I'm sorry I didn't help with the fight I was just..... Scared..."

I looked up and saw him trembling. I put a hand on his shoulder. "Hey dude it's fine."

Cody grinned. "Yeah man you did great!"

He looked up at us. "Really?"

"Yeah dude." I smiled. "Wanna know a secret? I was scared too. No joke."

Cody laughed. "Well I wasn't! I ain't afraid of nothing." Me and Jone busted out laughing. Cody blushed.

Jone grinned at Cody. "Your afraid of girls." I busted out laughing again and Cody blushed even harder. Jone punched Cody's arm gently. "Don't worry I think she likes you. Your kind of a annoying little brother in her case." I laughed harder.

Cody still blushing grinned from ear to ear. "Really?"

I turned still smiling like crazy. "Yeah bro. Now come on guys let's get some sleep."
