I rubbed my eyes. I was immediately alarmed.

I stood up pushing away my dark curls from my forehead, trying to rub off the tiredness and the massive headache I felt.

I looked around, only to be greeted by trees and silence. I was alone. Where is Zack? I thought he was with me.

"Ughh", I pressed my head hard with my hands. The headache is killing me.

I suddenly heard a loud thud. I quickly jumped off and hid behind a big fat tree.

"Find that little boy. We need him or boss will kill us", I heard a manly voice.

Were they talking about me? But I'm not a boy, I'm a man. I'm already 14 years old.

Those men went ahead. I took a breath of relief. But I suddenly sneezed.

Oh no!

One of them turned behind. They heard me, shit!

"There he is! Catch him!", One of them who seemed to be their leader, spotted me.

I quickly got to my feet and started running. These dudes may be big and massive but they can't compete my speed. I smirked.

Just when I was almost out of their sight, I tripped on a rock and fell down.

Great! Amazing! Now I'm going to die, yay!

I don't wanna die so young. I'm still a virgin!

Just when I gave up hope, I spotted a cave. I ran towards it.

I went in it, the sun rays from outside lit the small cave.

It seemed alot bigger from the outside, it was made of stone. As I was looking around, I spotted something. A body?

Not just an body, the body of....... Zack?

I went towards it, "Zack!", I whisper yelled.

His face was covered in blood, "De-Dean", he slowly whispered. It was barely audible, he seemed lifeless.

"Wh-what happened Zack?", I asked him. My face filled with complete horror.

"Last night, wh-when we decided to res-rest a li-little they spotted us. Well, kind of. I put the fire down. I didn't want you to get in tr-trouble so I-I ran away from you and made noise, t-to save you. Th-they shot me, beat me u-up", he struggled with his words while explaining.

"Shit! You did all this fo-for me? You bastard! Look what they did to you", tears started slipping from my eyes.

He chuckled, "I don't regret it. I couldn't save her, atleast I saved you bro", he eyes held moisture and so much emotion.

"I don't have m-much time left", he said with a sad smile.

"Shut the fuck up idiot. You have alot of time left, once we get back to our family they'll take you to a doc", I said between sobs. He was somehow right, but no. I'll save him.

"Li-listen Dean, I did it for you. Please go and save yourself", he told me with authority in his voice. He failed terribly.

"No! I wouldn't leave you no matter what", I was serious.

"Don't be stubborn. Don't let my sacrifice go to waste, go! Go now!", He tried to push me away.

"No!"

"Pl-plea-", before he could finish his eyes closed and his body went still.

"No, no. No! No! No!", I started chanting while crying.

Don't worry Zack, I'll have our revenge. For you. For me. For dad. For mom. For my brothers.

And for . . . her
