Chapter 19: Where Do We Go

It was quite a bit of a shock in the room as to just what it was that Noah had told us, all at the exact same time as well, as I really was not all too sure as to just what it was that I should even believe any more, if I was going to be for real with my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I gulped quite a bit of some spit down my throat, all at the exact same time too, as I was not all too sure if I should even trust all that was even just told to me.

The story made sense, and I damn well knew it, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that Sabin had always been a bit strange to me, and he had always thrown me off quite a bit, all at the exact same time as well, but the fact that Noah had just told us a lot more about him that I was not sure if I was willing to believe or not. I knew that I had not known the man all too well before, but the fact that he had wanted to not only lead the rebellion, as that was the reason that he had gone after Cole and Amelia as I had come to find out.

Once the rebellion won, which we were not all too sure of, even now more than ever, after what it was that had just happened to him, Noah had told us that he had plans of taking over the nation, and being the leader of it, all at the exact same time too, as he had plans that I just still was not all too sure if I could comprehend it, as I was not all too sure as to just why it was that Noah had not told us about all of it before, all at the exact same time too.

I wanted to trust Noah, a lot more than Sabin, even though it had gone a bit of some vice versa at first, as I knew that I was not all too sure if I could trust some one that was a part of the government, all at the exact same time too, never the less, even though as it turns out, the person that I thought that I could trust, had in the end turned out to be a fraud, all at the exact same time as well, which had my mind in a lot of different places right now, if I was not going to lie to my self.

Cole and Amelia were trying to tell us that their Superior was apparently telling them that it was in fact true, but I was not all too sure about that either, as I did not know at all as to just who it was that they were talking about when they said that they had a superior, and apparently the superior told them as to just what it was that they should and should not do, all at the exact same time as well, which did in fact kind of freak me out.

Was it like some sort of ghost that only they could talk to? It was quite a bit strange to me, as I knew that I had not really ever believed in ghosts, but based off of what it was that they were saying to us, all at the exact same time as well, I felt like I had no other choice but to believe it, as they had known all of our names, before they had even got to know us, or they had even got to meet us, all at the exact same time too.

I shook off all of those thoughts how ever, all at once instead, as I knew that it was besides the point, and it had nothing to do with the fact that we had just lost our leader, and that he was now dead. What the hell was the rebellion going to do next now? I was not all too sure if I was going to be for real with my self, as I knew that Noah and Randy were supposed to take over as a bit of a combined leader, all at the exact same time too, but I also was sure that Sabin if he had thought he was going to die, than he did not expect it to be so soon.

If he knew that he was going to die, than what would happen to his plan as to the fact that he wanted to take over the nation him self, all at the exact same time too, as that was some thing that did in fact confuse me quite a bit none the less, all at the exact same time as well, as I gulped a bit to my self once again, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I should believe at all right at this very moment in time.

It all sounded quite a bit crazy, as I knew that normally, I was not one to believe in the type of stuff that was being said to me right at this very moment in time. It all seemed like there was so many different flaws in what it was that was being said, but at the exact same time too how ever, I also knew that it was too late to go back at this point, as I breathed in quite a bit to my self, as I got my focus off of all of those thoughts, and I got my focus on the fact that I all of the sudden was beginning to hear to voice of my friend Randy, as he was starting to speak up to Noah, all at the exact same time as well.

It was clear to me, and thankfully, none the less, that Randy was quite a bit lost as to just what it was that was going on right now, such as I was right now, as that kind of made me feel quite a bit better, as I knew that Randy was in fact some one that I could trust for sure, all at the exact same time too, as I blinked my eyes just a few times, and I then all of the sudden lifted my head up, and I looked at Randy right in to his eyes, all at the exact same time too.

Randy was clearly quite a bit lost, as I could tell that he was scared as well, which was actually some thing that I did not really feel right now, as crazy as it was to me, for me to say, as I just wanted to at least keep on trying to get my Sandy back, and I knew that I could die with the fact that I had at least tried at the very least, even if every thing that I had been told, all at the exact same time too, might have in fact been a lie to me all along, all at the exact same time too.

I shook my head, as I shook off all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time too, as I knew that I still could not be all too certain as to the fact that I was in fact being lied to right at this very moment in time in the very first place any ways. It still just felt a bit strange to me, all at the exact same time as well, as I felt like I should just listen to what it was that Randy had to say to Noah, all at the exact same time as well, none the less.

I continued to stare my friend right in to his eyes, as I knew that he did not know that I was doing as such a thing at the exact same time as well, nor should be be worried about it, or focused on that at all, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that his focus should be on Noah and the 2 people that were with us in the room right now, as he continued to speak to all 3 of them, as I began to start to listen as to just what it was that he had to say to all of them, all at the exact same time too, never the less.

"So... If Sabin really just wanted to power... Than why the hell did he want us to take over for the rebellion if he was going to die? He didn't tell me about those plans..." Randy said to Noah, as I blinked my eyes, all at the exact same time too, as it felt a bit crazy to me, all at the exact same time too, as to the fact that Randy had just said exactly what it was that I had been thinking on just a few moments before he had even said it, all at the exact same time as well.

I was so lost, as it kind of felt like things were going quite a bit crazy on me, if I was going to be for real with my self. I just wanted to go in to my bed room and sleep, but I knew that there was no way that I could sleep right now with so much that was looming on my conscious right at this very moment in time, never the less. I just stayed where I was at, and I just stared at every one, slowly, one by one, thinking that this might just be one big joke, and one big prank that they were pulling on me right now.

I kind of hoped, and I kind of wished that it was in fact the case, none the less, as I hoped that Sandy might just be in some other room, and she might be a part of this mean little prank that they had pulled on me. I knew that it was not the case at all, if I was going to be for real with my self, all at the exact same time too, as I knew that Randy had lost his wife long ago, and he would not be a part of this prank, all at the exact same time as well.

Though perhaps he was not, and that could be a lot of the reason that he had such a lost look on his own face right now, all at the exact same time as well. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I then all of the sudden shook off all of those thoughts from my head, all at the exact same time as well, as I had to not tell my self some stupid stuff such as that, as I knew that none of this was a joke at all, and none of this was a game, all at the exact same time too.

The blood that they had on their shirts, was in fact real blood, and that they really had killed Sabin, whether or not that was in attack or defense, I still was not all too sure as to which one it could be just yet, even though Noah did in fact believe what it was that they were telling us was in fact true, I kind of felt like I really could not trust Noah at all either, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that he had been a part of the government before all of this, all at the exact same time as well.

Though, if I was going to be for real with my self, I felt like a bit of an idiot for thinking that this my just be some sort of ploy, or scheme on us all at the exact same time as well, as I was not all too sure as to just why it was that they would go to these measures to take a few people down all at the exact same time too, as I then all of the sudden got my focus back on to just what it was that was even going on in front of me all at the exact same time too.

I knew that this was all real, and I knew that I had to wake my self up, all at the exact same time too, as I knew that I could not live with my self, in the state that I was even in right now, as I then all of the sudden blinked my eyes a few times, and I then shook my head, as I then all of the sudden got my focus off of all of the other thoughts that I might have been having before now, and before all of this was even going down in the very first place.

Why were they all here, and why was this all going at my place? Sure, I knew that they had in fact killed Sabin, our leader, and I doubt that Cole and Amelia would want to be at his place with that on their conscious, all at the exact same time too, if I was going to be for real with my self, but at the exact same time too, I just was not all too sure as to just why it was that they had all come over to my place, in the very first place any ways, for all of this, all at once as well, how ever.

I breathed in quite a bit to my self, as I then all of the sudden, all at the exact same time as well, then all of the sudden got my focus off of all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time too, as I then got my focus off of some completely different thoughts instead, which were the fact that I knew that I had to get my focus on Noah right now, as I saw that Noah had then all of the sudden nodded to Randy, all at the exact same time too.

I knew that it was time for me to wake my self up, as I knew that this was not some sort of scheme against us, as I knew that they could have easily killed us already if that were in fact the case, as I also knew, all at the exact same time too, that the story that they had told us, all at the exact same time too, did in fact make quite a bit of sense to me, how ever, as I then shook off all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden saw Randy nod back to Noah.

I was still quite a bit lost by all of this, as well as the fact that I still was quite a bit lost as to just what it was that was going on right now in the very first place any ways, as I felt like, perhaps the reason as to just why it was that I was so lost right at this very moment in time, might simply be due to the fact that I had not got the best of sleep last night, all at the exact same time too.

Of course, could you really blame me for that? I had so much on my mind, and so much in my head, all at the exact same time too, as I was sure that it was going to be even worse for me this night, for me to try to get any sort of sleep as well, as I blinked my eyes a few times, not all too sure as to just what it was that I was even thinking on right at this very moment in time, in the very first place any ways.

I then all of the sudden got my focus on Noah, all at once, instead, as I then began to start to hear him speak up to Randy, and respond back to just what it was that Randy had said to him not all too long ago, and the exact same question that I had in my own head just a few moments before now, as it did in fact make me feel a little bit better that me and my friend Randy were thinking on the exact same topic, all at once, as well, never the less.

I shook off all of those thoughts how ever, all at the exact same time too, as I just kept my eyes on Noah, as that was after all who it was that I should have my attention on right now, as he was the one that was speaking back to not just Randy, but to every one that was in the room right now, as I was sure that Cole and Amelia were a little bit lost them selves as to why it was that they had been attacked, if their story was true at the exact same time as well.

Based off of the looks on their faces, I could tell that they were in fact a little bit afraid, as it did in fact seem like that what it was that they had in fact said, and what it was that Noah had snuck in to my place to listen to, all at the exact same time as well, was in fact true none the less. I breathed in quite a bit to my self, all at once, as I then began to start to listen as to just what it was that Noah had to say to all of us, all at the exact same time as well.

"He did not have too much of an evil intent, but he was willing to kill any one that stepped in his way... He simply just wanted to be the leader, and he wanted his name to be heard... He felt like it was dangerous as to the fact that Cole and Amelia had said that Randolph was the one that was important, so he simply went after them, to make sure that they did not tell Randolph what it was that was so important about him..." He said to all of us, as I blinked my eyes a few times, all at the exact same time too, as to the fact that it now all of the sudden began to start to make a bit of some sense to me, as to just what it was that Noah had said to us in the very first place any ways.

I gulped a bit to my self, as I still was in fact quite a bit lost still, if I was not going to lie to my self. I was still not all too sure about all of it, even though the pieces were slowly beginning to slide in to place, all at the exact same time as well, it still sounded quite a bit crazy to me, as to the story that I was being told, all at the exact same time as well. Though I suppose that it really was not all too much of a story how ever, as I knew that there was in fact quite a lot of truth behind all of it, all at the exact same time as well, as I then shook my head, as it was giving me quite a bit of a head ache none the less.

I looked away from all of them, and I looked down the hall way that was right near me, all at the exact same time too, as I really did in fact wish that I could just go down that way, and that I could go in to my bed room, and that I could just sleep it all of. Maybe I would wake up in the morning, and every thing would be fine, and that every thing would be okay, all at the exact same time as well.

Perhaps I would wake up, and I would hear knocking on my door, letting me know that Randy was letting me know that we had a meeting, and that the rebellion was just fine. Perhaps I would wake up to hear that we were about to attack the capital, and that we would take down the government, and the leader ship that had taken my wife away from me, all at the exact same time too.

Or, perhaps I would wake up, and I would see that my wife was right beside me, and that this was just one simply night mare, all at the exact same time too. I knew that I was lying to my self with all of that how ever, as I knew damn well that all of this was real, like it or not, and as crazy as it might seem to be to me, all at the exact same time too, as I dipped my head a bit low to the ground as soon as I thought on all of those thoughts, as I gulped quite a bit of some spit down my throat, all at the exact same time too.

I blinked my eyes a few times, all at the exact same time too, as I then got my focus off of all of that, and back on the fact that I was in a room in side my house with a bunch of strangers. I really did not have people in my home as it was before now, unless it was Randy who just wanted to talk to me, or if it was Tona, who just wanted to check in on me and Sandy, which come to think on it, it had been a while since she had last done as such a thing, as that did in fact worry me.

Though, at the exact same time too, I also knew that I had a lot bigger things to have my thoughts on, and to be worried about right at this very moment in time, come to think on it, as I let out quite a bit of a rough sigh to my self, all at the exact same time too, as I then lifted my head up, as I thought back on to the thoughts that they were all in my house, which was a dangerous place to be, come to think of it, as we were in the middle of the city never the less.

I knew that Sabins place was a lot more safe, as I knew that he did not have any neighbors nearby, and the sound that went on in that place did not go out side at all, all at the exact same time too how ever, as I then shook my head, as I also knew at the exact same time as well, that we did not really have much of a choice, as I knew that there was a lot of questions being spread around, right at this very moment in time as well.

I blinked my eyes a few times, as I got my focus off of all of that instead, and I got my focus on Cole and Amelia, all at the exact same time too, as I heard a voice come from where they were sitting at, at my dining room table, all at the exact same time too, which did in fact make me turn my head over to them, all at the exact same time too, as I was a little bit lost as to just what it was that was even going on in the very first place any ways, none the less.

Much to my surprise, it was Cole who was the one that felt like it was his turn to speak up to every one that was in the room, which I knew that Amelia was kind of the leader in between them, all at the exact same time as well, as that was a lot of the reason that it came as to such a surprise to me in the very first place any ways. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I shook off all of those thoughts at the exact same time too, as I knew that it was all besides the main point right now.

The main point was, simply the fact that Cole was in fact speaking right at this very moment in time, in the very first place any ways, which I got my eyes on him, all at the exact same time as well, as I just seemed to stare at him with quite a bit of a blank look on my own face, all at the exact same time too, as I then all of the sudden began to start to listen as to just what it was that he even had to say to all of us in the very first place any ways.

"Some thing was up with him from the beginning for sure... But that is besides the point... What it is that Randy said, is in fact true... We need to leave the city... It is not safe here, the government will find us, I am sure you've had a bunch of people already tell all about all of this... We need to get every one that is in the rebellion that is willing to come, with us, as well..." He said to us, as I just looked at him with the exact same blank look on my face that I had before, as to just what it was that he had even said.

It was clear to me that Amelia was a bit smarter than he was, as I could tell it in their voice, that Cole was not the most smart guy in the world. If I had to assume how ever, that the man still did in fact have a good intent, based off of the fact that he had come with her, and he wanted to help our rebellion try to take down the government, all at the exact same time as well. I was sure, based off of how big and strong that the guy was, that he was more of the use to just being scary, than he was as to the fact that he was supposed to talk a bunch, all at the exact same time too.

I blinked my eyes a few times, as I let out a bit of a soft sigh all at the exact same time too, more to my self, as I still was not thoroughly convinced as to the fact that they did in fact have a good intent for us, all at the exact same time too, even after what it was that I had heard them say, and all that had happened so far, as to the fact that they had in fact killed our leader, as much as Noah wanted to believe it was true, I still was not all too sure about Noah my self either.

There was a lot that I was not all too sure about, and it all seemed to just be flooding my brain, all at the exact same time too, as I was not all too sure if I had any sort of answers to any of it, either, which did in fact make me feel quite a bit weak, if I was not going to lie to my self. I did not like to be in a stressful situation such as the one that I was in right at this very moment in time, as I always did my best to avoid them, though they seemed to follow me where ever it was that I seemed to want to go.

I sighed a bit to my self, as I felt like I should not be all too bothered by it at all right now how ever, as I just seemed to stare at both Cole and Amelia, who I saw that the both of them had quite a bit of a blank look on the both of their faces, as if they knew that I was going to be looking at the both of them, and they did not want to share any sort of more information to me, all at the exact same time as well, as it seemed like the information that they had shared to me before, was quite a bit strange, all at the exact same time too.

I blinked my eyes, as I just looked away from the both of them, all at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden turned my head over to Randy, all at the exact same time too, as he kind of seemed like he was the person that I could trust the most right now, in all that I was being told, as it was clear that he was not in on any of this, and it was clear that he was not a part of just what ever that was even going on right now either.

At first, it made me feel a bit better, until I saw the look on his face, that it seemed like he believed the full story as to just what it was that he had been told now all of the sudden. It seemed like there was some thing that I might be missing, as I then all of the sudden let out quite a bit of a heavy sigh to my self, all at the exact same time too, as I got my focus off of all of those thoughts all at once, and I then turned my head over to Amelia and Cole.

If every one was willing to believe what it was that they had said, and they had not killed all of us yet, than I felt like I had no other choice to go with it, all at the exact same time too, as I let out quite a bit of a sigh to my self, once again, as well. I then all of the sudden turned my head over to Cole and Amelia, as I still felt like I had a few more questions my self at the very least, as I then nodded to the both of them, as they then nodded back to me, letting me know that they were paying attention to me, and that they were listening to what ever it was that I had to say to them. That seemed to calm me down and make me feel a little bit better for some odd reason or another, as I then all of the sudden began to speak to the both of them.

Well... We don't even know if any one will come once they hear the news that Sabin has been killed... Do you want us to tell them the truth?" I said to all of them, as I then all of the sudden saw them all dip their heads to the ground, all at the exact same time too, as it was clear that they had not thought all of that through just yet, all at the exact same time too. I gulped a bit to my self, as I kind of wished that they had, and I did in fact regret even asking that question, even if it was important for me to ask. I let out quite a bit of a heavy sigh how ever, which did in fact get all of their attention back on me, all at the exact same time too. As I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I was even doing in the very first place any ways, if I was not going to lie to my self. It all then began to come back to me, all at once how ever, as to the fact that I knew that there was a more important question that I had to ask. I gulped a bit to my self, as I was a little bit afraid as to just what it was that the answer even was going to be in the very first place any ways. "But, more importantly... Where do we go?"
