Chapter 1: The Runaway Duo

Just because I’m running right now doesn’t mean I did a bad thing. In fact, I did a great thing. I found a boy trapped in a well helped him out, then found out he was a captive and an important one, might I add, and now here we are. A girl and boy running towards what might just be a start to a new life.

Hurry, you’re slowing us down and I don’t want to be caught or better yet made into someone else’s dinner.

“I can’t miss. I’m tired and I haven’t eaten or had anything to drink in like two days. The last time I ate something, it was a small piece of loaf and a handful of water. You should be happy that I’m even keeping up with you right now. SHOW SOME CONSIDERATION WON’T YUH.”

Well, IF YOU’D STOP YAPPING SO MUCH,YOU MIGHT NOT FEEL SO HUNGRY OR THIRSTY. DID YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?

“But, I.”

So Just shut up and keep running, it’s not too far now. They won’t find us where we’re going. Look, right in front of you, just on the horizon. Can you see it? Do you see that flash of light? That’s where we’re heading. I told you I was taking you to my home. Everyone would be glad to see you.

‘What’s with that smile on her face?‘

“Your home, where? Theres nothing but sea water ahead and what light? I see no land or small huts anywhere. Is this a joke? Cause after all that I’ve been through, I don’t think this is the time or place for something like that?”

“We won’t last a day out there. I know I haven’t known you long, but you’ve been running for an hour straight, so maybe you’re just dehydrated. Maybe you aren’t thinking clearly.”

One hour? Has it really been that long? It felt like six minutes to me.

“Six minutes! She’s ridiculously fit.”

You stress too much. Have you ever considered seeing a doctor? For all you know, it might be contagious. I won’t want anyone on board picking it up. It will make my work more difficult than it already is. And having one of you around is already more than I could handle. Woah, wait where here. We just have to stand here at the edge of the doc. They’ll be picking us up in about three, two, one.

‘Rumbling sound.’

“Wait, what is that? It’s coming from underneath the water. Come on, miss, we have to run.”

Don’t move you idiot, it’s alright it’s just mother-ship.

“A SUBMARINE? Who are you?”

Are you suffering from memory loss? I told you before, I’m a simple engineer. I just work for a highly intelligent military force who rides around in a submarine. Welcome to the Setsu Babe. I helped build this baby with my own two hands. She rides smoothly, especially with the new improvements I made last week. Changed out the weaponry system for my new tech, fixed the drive and steering mechanics for easier handling for the crew and I also made it so it could dive a little deeper than regular subs. Oh, and before I forget, my name is Sachi. Nice to meet you.

‘Sachi notices someone and glances over her shoulder.‘

Um, hold on, give me a second.

Max!!

“Oh, hey Sachi, welcome back.”

Where’s captain Gideon I need him to meet our new guest? And oh yeah, tell him that the mission was successful, pawn to f5, he’ll know what I mean.

“Well, he’s out right now, but I’ll let him know when he gets back.”

Good boy Maxi.

“I told you to stop calling me that. It’s humiliating.”

But it’s cute just like you look at that face.

“I’m leaving. You have a good day.”

Bye Maxi.

Well, it’s just me and you. I would’ve introduced you to the captain, but he seems to be out right now and the rest of the crew went off on their respected mission earlier on today and they won’t be back until tomorrow. The guy you just saw me speaking to is Maximus. he’s our assistant or errand boy, but he doesn’t like to be called by his first name so everybody just calls him Max. If you keep making that face, you’ll scare people off.

“What face? I mean, I’m just a little nervous. Does it show that much?” Don’t worry, you’ll fit in perfectly, plus you still haven’t told me your name. May I ask what is it?

“My name?” “I’ve been a slave all my life, so they did not give me a name, but my masters would sometimes call me boy or chew toy. Would that be good?”

Chew toy! They really treated you like trash, didn’t they? But it won’t do. I’ll give you a new one, one that I think will fit you very well. How about James?

“James, yes, I love it.”

Then, James, shall be your new name, and you will forget about your past. I offer you a new life, a new purpose. You said you would serve me in return for saving your life and that you shall do, but know this James, even if you answer to me, you are free to live your life the way you want to, smile when you want to smile, eat when you are hungry and drink when you are thirsty. I have no intentions of making others suffer like you once did. Take it or leave it, James. There’s no turning back now.

‘The Next day. Monday, October 1st 1990.’

Ugh, I can’t reach it and I guess everyone’s sleeping right now, no I can’t disturb them. Wait a minute, I have this idiot. Where is he? I think Max said he was staying in room three. I’ll go get him and maybe he could clean up this place while at it hehe.

‘Clears throat’

Okay, I have to act tough. ‘Knock knock’ James, it’s me, Sa.. I mean your boss, can you open up, please? I have an important task for you.

‘James quickly opens his eyes after hearing his master’s voice.’

“An important job. What could it be? Maybe she wants me to help her build something or maybe try out a new weapon. But I’ve never held a weapon before or built anything like she does. What am I going to do? Okay James, don’t panic, you got this. You’ll do great.”

‘He opens his door and stands at attention.’

“Good Morning mam I’m ready for any task you have for me. Just say the word.”

Ouu, such a cute face you're making.

‘James blushes’

Follow me where heading to the workshop. Alright, do you see that box on top of there? Bring it down for me. I need something from it and when you’re finished with that, go get the broom and the mop from the back room and clean this place up. I want it spotless.

“Yes, mam. Here’s the box you wanted.”

Thank you. Okay, let’s see here rubber ducky no I don’t need this, paper plane no, fire-breathing dragon toy no, ahh here it is, finally I’ve been looking everywhere for you.

“Master, may I ask what is that thing?”

This thing is what’s gonna save your life someday. I’m making you your own personal weapon. Everyone on board has their own specially made weapon that suits their personality and increases their strength substantially. I told the captain you won’t be able to handle one right now, but he said to give you one anyway, so here we are. Give me three days and you’ll have your very own weapon. You can thank me later.

“I’m getting a weapon in three days, so cool.”

Yes, don’t get too excited. You won’t be able to handle it even if you get it. Your body isn’t strong enough yet, but don’t worry, we’ve also got that covered. Marcel will take care of that. You’ll be training with him on evenings and in the mornings you’ll be here in the shop helping me out with my stuff, understood?

“Yes, mam, I won’t let you down.“

Meanwhile, in the captain's quarters. ‘Door opens.’

Ahh, it’s good to be back. Men!

“Yes Sir, it’s good to see yah.”

Men, you won’t believe what happened. It was my daughter’s birthday last weekend so of course I had to go see daddy’s little girl. She turned two and, well; I guess I got carried away and end up staying the whole week. Sorry I left so long without a notice. I kinda dropped my phone in a puddle and got it back working the next day and still forgot to message in, Haha.

‘Crew fell over at the thought of how stupidly clumsy and irresponsible their captain is.’

“It’s okay sir, we know you miss home sometimes. We all do, but you know you got responsibilities on board the submarine. You could of at least leave someone better than Sim in charge. She worked us to the bone, plus she won’t stop talking about we won’t be good husbands for her even if we tried.”

Oh, hey captain, it’s nice to see you again. As you can see, the ship and these magots are in peak condition: one thousand pushups every morning, a run around the corridors and an entire clean off the submarine every day. I worked these little worms until they became men.

“Yes, mam and we appreciate you for that.”

Haha, okay, okay, I guess I’ll rethink my actions next time guys. It’s good to see you too, second lieutenant commander Sims. Now before I forget, lieutenant, we have a new member on board, don’t we? Where can I find him?

“Room two sir, that’s where he’s staying, but he is also Sachi’s assistant, so you might also find him the workshop.”

Most appreciate it, I’ll be off now, carrying on.

LET’S GO MAGGOTS ONE THOUSAND PUSHUPS. I HAVE MEN WORKING HERE NOT WOMEN, ONE TWO.

“YES LIEUTENANT.”

‘That day, we heard the cries of the crew throughout the halls.’
