Chapter 51 - 51

Int. Cave- Day

They are on their own little world

Dan: You are awake? Come and have something to eat

Ella: (smiles) It smells very nice. I will savor every bite

Dan: I am glad you have an appetite

Ella: Your cooking is very good. Great, I am bad at chores. In the future you will be in charge

Dan: I figured out the moment I knew your true identity. People who have a way with weapons tend to forget other duties. What should we do next?

Ella: We meet the others then go to battle. That man has to die

Dan: Then what?

Ella: I take back my own people we then rebuild our village. Our home

Dan: Is that all, what about our family?

Ella: Naughty! How many children do you want

Dan: 5!

Ella: Isn't that too much, are you crazy?! Don't tell me you are thinking of getting concubines

Dan: How can I do that when my wife is as skilled as an assassin

Ella: Always remember that. If it ever crosses your mind you better prepare for your funeral as well as the other women (they both laugh)

Int. Camp- Night

They have all gathered

Jade: Ladies and gentlemen I believe the time has come. It's time to send our enemies to their makers

Ella: Nobody will be spared except for the innocent. We only go for those who point their sword at us

Girlie: What about the villagers, do we kill all of them? Just say the word

Melanie: Are you crazy? To think you would dare to think that.

Jade: Of course we won't

Ella: I have that covered already. Ally and Mercy will be in charge of evacuating the innocent lives to a safe place

Riley: Great, lets drink to the downfall of our enemies. We wont stop until they are all wiped out

Wayne: Everyone seems to be so excited about this whole thing. Am I the only one who is scared? This also means that many of us will also die

Dawn: Don't worry too much. All you have to do is protect yourself well. It's a do or die situation

Leo: Let's just suck it up. Give me more of that fish soup. Who knows, it might be my last meal

Melanie: You are right, let us savor it

Ella: I feel like throwing out

Dan: Are you ok?

Riley: You have been feeding her luxurious food she has forgotten this taste

Dan: I will check up on her

Melanie: You sit down, I will check up on her. Just enjoy your meal

She follows her outside

Melanie: You really are throwing out

Ella: I must have eaten something bad. Overall I am fine

Melanie: When has your stomach become weak. I remember how you could gobble everything up without hesitation

Ella: Maybe the silly Riley was right.

Melanie: Sit down let me check your pulse

Ella: I am really fine

Melanie: I can't believe this

Ella: What is it?

Melanie: You are pregnant! Congratulations, why do you look upset. You should be happy, you are going to become a mother

Ella: Talk about wrong timing. I have so much to do. Promise me you won't tell this to anyone especially my husband

Melanie: Why? But prince charming deserved to know. Oh my! Is he not the father? Poor Dan, he is in for a ride, then indulge me, who is it? You haven't been close to anyone, could it be Leo?

Ella: What rubbish are you talking about. I am not that kind of girl. Of course this is Dan's. I will tell him after the battle if I make it alive

Melanie: Not gonna happen! How dare you think I will let you take a risk with that child's life. There is no way you are going there

Ella: Please I need you to trust me, no matter what I will protect this baby. I will make sure we both come alive

Melanie: Fine, I will try to not let it slip out. But you better survive to the end

Ella: I will

Dan: Sorry for interrupting, I had to come out because I am worried about you

Melanie: I will excuse myself

Dan: Stella, have I told you?

Ella: What?

Dan: I really love you

Ella: I know, I also love you a lot

Dan: Finally you said it. I am very happy. Tomorrow let's come out alive and live happily ever after

Ella: You have yourself a deal

Int. Bunker - Night

The people are rounded up in a safe room

Mrs Rose: I don't know why we have to be shoved in this dark small room like we are some kind of rats

Mr Rose: Just keep quiet. It is this or a sword. Do you want to die?

Mrs Rose: Of course not, I have so many things to do. I am just glad I sent my Rose away. I wouldn't want her to have such a bad memory

*****

Amanda: It seems our village is really in trouble. Do you know the enemy? Will we lose or not. What do you think

Ally: Of course they are very strong. They will surely win. The evil king had to die for everyone to be free

Amanda: Things have been very strange lately. It is said it is the prince and his wife

Ally: Do you think they are evil?

Amanda: No, I trust them. I like Ella a lot, I will listen to whatever she says

*******

Mary: At long last. We will soon be reunited with our son's

Eve: More than that I am worried might be reunited with a corpse. I am sick worried

Mary: Can you be positive for once! What if you jinx them by saying such negative words

Eve: I will only smile and stop worrying when I see them

Mr Cue: Won't you smile when you see me

Eve: My dear husband! You are alive, let me look at you. You have aged a lot, and lost some weight too

Mr Cue: Non of that matters. I really thought I had lost you
