Heracles

Chapter 18:Grief (2/2)

As they were flying around the sky they saw waters after 15 hours, “The English channel!” Jujo blurt out,

“We supposed to be going here? I dunno the geography of the first realm” Ranor asked

“It’s amazing we’re so close!” Jujo responded. Ranor continued and they saw the other side, “Wait we shouldn't see England right now. Ranor you bastard! You went south”

“What!?”

“Turn around right now!” Then Ranor started descending from the sky “why have you stopped!?”

“Might as well bring your limbs back” they landed down and Avie took Jujo off of her back, “this’ll take an hour, i saw a town in the distance. You can go there whatever your name is. Anyway Heracles, this’ll hurt”.

Avie went through the trees to see the town, and it was gray. People looked famished as they walked around, a man came up to her and greeted her.

“Hola!”

“yo sólo hablo Inglés”

“Ah, I see. To think a tourist would visit in these times.”

“These times?”

“The 3rd world war has greatly hurt our village, once a week we get five apples. But no one has eaten in 3 weeks.”

“Wait for the 3rd world war?”

“How do you not know!?”

About 20 minutes passed before the story was explained to her

“That’s horrible”

“Anyway a local gangster has been stealing all of our food. Yesterday when our food came in, someone tried to get an apple off of him, we found his corpse 20 miles from town.”

“How can a human be that strong?!”

“Please help our starving town, maybe you have a gun on you!?”

“Wow, to think people are so desperate they want me to kill him. Fine, I'll do just that!”
