"Hey!" A man's voice bellowed out. "What are you all making all that noise for?"
Looking up, the group noticed a guard standing nearby, holding a small pistol in his left hand. Spotting the man on the ground, the guard lifted the gun and pointed it at them.
"Stop right there! You're all under arrest. Any sudden moves can and will result in deadly force being used."
Chris turned to Blossom and Marshall and nodded, motioning for them to run along. Chris followed, and once they had finally hidden behind a tree, asked, "What's Blackmore even doing?"
Blackmore approached the man calmly, showing his hands before grabbing the man's shoulder and whispering something to him. After an exchange of words between the two, Blackmore turned and caught up with the others, obviously faking a grin with anxiety in his eyes. "Let's get the fuck out of here," he spoke, between clenched teeth.
"Come on, the entrance is this way, hopefully they haven't already closed the gate!" Blossom shouted, running ahead of Chris and pushing her way through the assembled crowd.
After various turns, they finally noticed the gate in the distance, still open. "Do you think it's safe?" She asked, turning to the others, slightly out of breath. "There could be more guards."
"We're good." Blackmore responded. "Just get out of here soon and we'll be safe."
"Did you pay them off or something?" Marshall asked, chuckling. Feeling confident, he started walking towards the gate first, watching his surroundings. Without trouble, he crossed to the other side and waved for the rest to follow him.
The group returned to the wagon shortly after without incident. Each person was able to take a bit of what Marshall, Blackmore, Blossom and Chris had recovered from Kaipo, with the chicaro getting a small portion of meat and fruit as well. The four that had gone to the village briefly shared with the others what happened.
Li munched on a blue apple. "I love Muné's culture."
"I wouldn't say I like it, exactly," Chris replied. "Some cities we had quite the rough time, as you've heard. But we should probably head out soon enough."
"The next time we get on the road, it'll be a straight trek there. I heard its pretty nice," Samuel began. "But before we do, could Atticus and I talk to you about something?"
