Edan gave me a pleased look and then we both let out a laugh.
"Pretty good right?"
Edan smirked.
"i did all the work."
"Yes you did old friend." "forgive me." I bowed as I spoke. He smiled and laid down. "You get first watch." 'I, I captain." I saluted him and took of my large pack then went to Edan unstrapping his even larger pack. I pulled out a large sling shot & tied my pack of handmade ammo around my waist scanning the area. Every one seemed to be on high alert down at the camp. But it would help them to grow as a Fleet.
It had been hours, the camp had simmered down. Just as I thought all was well and was about to shut my eyes. I heard a crack in the bushes. I looked over at where I had heard the sound and could not see anything. I quickly grabbed the scythe that was tied to Edan's pouch and said with aloud voice "I will not let you harm these children." "You would not be the first to lose a head."
