Chapter 61; So what if we don't survive

" I suggest night too, it's safer that way, during the day, we will be noticed already because we will be new faces and we can't move in masses, so to be successful we have to move at night." Ming Xie suggested.

They just couldn't sleep, the day broke out, in the Capital military camp, Tan Chan had been waiting to receive a message but none, he was getting more anxious.

"Dad what's not happening? how can Lin Fai disappear in a military Camp? I have sent armies there and also realized the place was infiltrated and attacked by unknown forces."Tan Jun spoke out worriedly.

"I don't know son, what do you want me to say, your mother and sister are still missing, why should I mind other people's business." Tan Chan spoke out coldly and walked away.

Tan Jun just felt his father was acting weirdly, he walked towards the Commander's Cabin to check out any latest news.

Lin Huang, Lin Hong, Scorpion, Lin Fai, Lin Juan, Luo Cheng, and Ming Xie sat down to strategize how to go about.

Zhou Hua walked in and asked curiously, Where is Luo Wei and Wei Wei? how come I don't see them?"

" We separated and they covered us to escape safely but they were chased and shot, they escaped into the forest and we are thinking of ways to rescue them." Lin Fai said.

" Whaaaat....? how come??" Zhou Hua asked.

" We will explain later, but now we have to think of ways to go back and rescue them." Lin Huang spoke out.

Zhou Hua sat down and joined them. Suddenly they heard the news from the television.

BREAKING NEWS

"The Southern military camp was infiltrated and attacked, with the unknown forces that implanted the explosives, many army officers injured and the military camp is closed down for further investigation.

"The Minister for the Head of Internal Security Commander (Lin Fai) has gone missing, his whereabouts unknown."

" The Military Camp at City B was attacked by unknown assailants and escaped into the forest, there haven't been caught."

" The public is angered by the current President and ruling of the country. The public wants him impeached and out of the office to elect a new President."

Suddenly the cameras captured people protesting while rioting.

"Impeach the President..."

"Impeach the President.... we elect a new one."

" Impeach the President..."

" President Tan Chan go home....."

" President Tan Chan go home..."

Lin Juan spoke out, "Since they went into the forest, there are many people after them, there is the army and the people behind the current situation. Let's move out at night, but you should know it's a tough mission and I have to rescue them."

" Let's get a map, it will be easy locating them, also we shouldn't use the route that we will be easily recognized." Ming Xie said.

" Alright let's get ready and study all the escape routes." Lin Juan spoke out, they got the maps and started studying it.

In the Cave Luo Wei's body started burning up, "Mommy what should I do, you are burning up."

Lin Wei looked around and saw dry grasses, she spooked the stone and fire was lit up.

She moved her mother nearby and warmed her body, after two hours, she felt better and woke up groggily.

"Mommy how are you feeling?" She asked worriedly.

"Let's go Wei Wei, help me out here." Luo Wei said weakly as Lin Wei went forward and held her hand, pulling her up, she staggered and walked into the furthest part of the cave, then she saw they were not stones covering that edge but it was soil.

"Wei Wei give me that knife," Luo Wei said weakly as she took the knife and started digging, she dug through the soil, she had dug deeper upwards in a vertical line, from low to high.

Her hands got soiled with soil while receiving cuts from the knife after digging for two hours, but she had dug a distance, she could hear steps of wild animals running.

"Mom... stop it already and conserve your energy." Lin Wei said softly.

" No I have to get you out of here, I won't let you die." Luo Wei spoke out coldly, her nails had chipped from pulling the soil, she continued digging.

" Moom... they will come to rescue us." Lin Wei said with tears in her eyes, while helping her with the soil.

" Would they know we are in here? what did I teach you Wei Wei, you have to depend on yourself to stay alive first before putting all your hopes on someone, also at the front entrance it's surrounded by the army officers, also the entrance door closed down from the explosion, huge stones fall down, so it will take days before moving them to rescue us." Luo Wei said coldly.

" But mother...." Lin Wei cried silently.

"No buts, get some dry grass and lit them up, this place is cold, safeguard yourself and don't get cold" Luo Wei said and continued to dig out.

"Mother you really are selfish." Lin Wei spoke out coldly.

" My dear, losing my life won't affect anything, but you, you are growing up now, you just started seeing life, how can I let it end like that?" Luo Wei said softly.

Lin Wei couldn't take it anymore, she went forward and knocked her mother out "Mother, no matter what I will accompany you, my heart aches just seeing you like this," Lin Wei hugged her tightly in her arms, 'we will get out of here that's a guarantee.' she thought silently while crying.

She took her mother's hand and caressed them gently, they were bleeding, her nails had chipped, with the soil, it will be easy to get an infection, she rubbed the soil off with her clothes and pecked her cheeks lightly.

"So what if we don't get out of here? so what if we don't survive! Mother, you and I are fated to walk down this rough path, we are fated to carry the family calamities." Lin Wei snorted out coldly.
