Betrayal

Third person POV

"Kate" Everest spoke surprised. His friend standing their right as they walk in. She had a guilty look on her face, like she had done something terrible. He looked around and what he saw was a planet more beautiful than earth.

He looked back at Kate confused. "Kate what the hell are you doing here" he asked her genuinely curious. She shook her and she looked like she was about to cry. "I'm so sorry" she said to him with a crack in her voice.

He was about to walk up to her but stopped when a dozens upon dozens of drones came behind her. People holding what looks like blasters you'd see in movies. They aimed it at Jude and Everest. Even if Everest was skilled he couldn't take out all these drones.

Jude suddenly tossed something back into the portal causing it to close. As soon as it closed they both were tackled to the ground, landing with a thud. Suddenly s blindfolded were put on both of there eyes.

And just like that Everest passed out. He reopened his eyes thinking it was only for a second but he woke up in a different place. He woke up in a room, lying on a bed. He looked to the side and saw Kate sitting down next to the bed.

He instantly got of the bed in a defensive position. Kate eyes widened and she stood up too. Everest looked to the side and saw his bow and arrows sitting there. He instantly grabbed them pulling the arrow back on the bow.

It hurt like hell cause of his wrist but he didn't care. Kate stood there unfazed but still with a guilty look on her face. "Now you are gonna tell me what the hell is going on" Everest spoke lowly and violently. "I had to save my farther" Kate said.

"What" Everest asked. Kate took deep breaths. "He was going to dye Everest, these people said they could help him" she tried to reason. "These people are the enemy" he said. She shook her head "not my enemy" she said. Everest looked at her confused.

"You knew they were trying to take over this kingdom" Everest asked, his voice going higher. Kate put her head down in shame. "You knew and you still went with it!" he asked in a yell, but it was more of a statement. "My dad was hurt, what did you expect me to do!" she yelled.

"I expect you not to side with my enemy" he spoke lowly. Kate balled her fist angrily. "How do you know there your enemy, you met Jude literally a week ago" she said pointing an accusing finger at him. "This is not about me or Jude" he spoke lowly.

Everest took a few deep breaths. "Here's what we're going to do, your going or lead me to where Jude is staying or I'm going to have to shoot you with this arrow" he said. She just shook her head. "You wouldn't" she said simply. Everest raised an eyebrow at her.

He pulled the bow back more that if it hit her in the head it would go straight through. "Kate I'm warning you, do not call my bluff" he warned her. Kate was shaking. "I don't want to shoot you, but I will if I have to" he ended. "Now bring me to Jude" he said.

She nodded, turned around and started walking with Everest now following behind her. She opened the door and went out. Everest looked around and they were now in a huge hallway. She started walking down one with Everest right behind her.

They stopped at a door with a hand pad next to it. She put her hand on it and it scanned her. The door unlocked and she pushed it open. And inside was Jude hooked up to a chair. Everest eyes widened as he immediately rushed up to him.

Jude looked up and saw Everest rush up to him. Everest immediately untied him from the chair and lifted him up. Jude clutched his head as he leaned on Everest. "Are they coming" Everest asked. Jude nodded "I gave them the instructions to open the portal again, they should be here in thirty minutes" he said.

Everest nodded and looked back at Kate. He stretched his bow out again but this time aiming it at her leg. "I'm sorry" he said before shooting her in the leg. She screamed out in pain before falling to the ground clutching her bleeding leg.

They both ran out of the room to god knows where. Jude pointed to a certain direction. "This way is the throne room, my family is most likely in there" Jude spoke. Everest nodded and followed him in that direction.

They both stopped at double doors and Jude pushed it open and what they say was ........
