I have stood guard duty for the past hour even though my feet are killing me and my body is exhausted, but who else will guard my fellow soldiers' backs other than me.......
That is as far as I got there. More to come maybe.

Just when I feel on the verge of collapse I hear my name whispered. I turn and begin searching the fallen soldiers around and spy his gold hair and brilliant green eyes buried under others. I use what strength is left of me and run to his side. I push the dead off him and drag his to my lap.
"Drex! Drex! Where are you hurt?" I ask trying to keep his dulling eyes on me and searching his body.
"You can drop the act," he tells me. I freeze and stare at him in shock and horror. " Come on, Cal. Don't play stupid with me. We've been friends since we were eight and first put into the army." he rasps out. " You did a beautiful job hiding it but I always knew, Cal." I turn my face away from his gaze and see where his wound is and busy myself compressing it rather than look my best friend in the face and tell him what I truly am.
"Drex please save your energy then when you are better you can chew my ass out for keeping the fact I am a girl from you," I plead to him dropping my deep tone of masculinity. The blood from his wound fills the compress and mixes with the blood on my hands mine and the others I killed today.
"Cal look at me," Drex says before going into a coughing fit that ends with blood drizzling down his handsome features. "I know I am gonna die so tell me this.." More coughing and more blood come, "tell.....me... you real name."
Looking straight into his hypnotic dying eyes I brush back his hair "Calora," I say as tears course down my face and land on his checks.
He looks at my tears and brings a shaky hand to my face brushing away the tears. "That is a pretty name," he says brushing back my hair. "Calora" he whispers before the breath leaves his chest and the light in his eyes dies and his hand falls from my face. "Drex!" I say shaking him. "DREX!" I scream. "Drex..." I plead to his lifeless body. I sit there cradling his body with my one good arm and my one numb arm for ages wishing to die.
And my wish comes when I hear the scratchy voices of the Clandorg. I stay where I am too tired to get up too tired to care what they do to me. Hoping they will pass me but I guess I look to much alive to have that wish granted because next thing I know a taloned hand in in my hair pulling my away from Drex. I fight wishing for my blades, my bow, a rock! Anything to get these maggot infested hands off me. I struggle as best I can even when one of the croons come to make chit chat with me.
"Oh lookie here boys!" it hisses with glee. "A fresh one and still alive," it licks its lips grossly.
"Release me you swine of a whore's pus!" I snarl at it.
"Oh! And it a female! Oh His Lord will be most pleased and will have much fin with this one," he - I decided to call it a he says trailing a hand down my face. Right when his finger nears my mouth I lash out and clamp my jaws over his finger. He begins to howl like the sun is roasting his skin. I clamp down harder even as his black blood pores down my chin and into my mouth. With a gruetest snap I bite his finger off. The clandorg falls back howling his head off and clutching his now three fingered hand. I spit of the finger and blood then smile my most freakish smile. The clandorg pulls himself off the ground and slaps me across the face again and again until I spit out a mixture of his and my blood. "Gag her and bind her hands. This one is a fighter and a Gandion so keep your eye on her and hope she does come free while you sleep."
I try to push myself up but one of the other brutes pushes my down and follows out the orders. Just before Three Fingers disappears from my sight he says cruelly, "Better yet. Just beat her until she passes out and every time she comes back to conscious beat her again." With that he leaves and four big brutes descend upon my tied up form. I would love to say I lasted long and that these guys passed out before me but no I gave into the darkness about ten minutes into the beating.
