Volume Seventy Five

I just flopped to the floor, where the children blood was drenched. Why?!,why?!, was I too late for their sake. Maybe I was too blinded by the fact that even if I was to save someone doesn't mean that they are saved. I have to go get Autumn, this will break her even more. I need help carrying out the bodies. This may not make any kind of sense to her on why, these kids decided to end it all. For me this is just another sick side of effect of the world of wickedness. For her a non-believer she can't fathom on that fact of why children would commit suicide. I slowly moved my armor away from the door, sneaking out for my room. Making sure that nobody sees me exiting the room, cause if someone was to peak inside would cause outrage. I walked down the hallway to go and found the room where Autumn stays at. I've found the room where she is in, I knocked on the door very quickly. Too make sure that nobody else wakes up. I heard footsteps inside of the room, the door flinged open. Autumn was face to face with me, this news is going to break her again. Will this news make her decision for the truth change after hearing this?. They way she fought for their freedom just for them to end it when their life had just began. I voice started to choke up " Autumn, I um, I don't know how to say this lightly. But the kids that we just had saved,they are no longer with us." Here comes the tears, even I started to tear up. She was speechless. No words came from her mouth, not even a whisper she made. She pushed me back into the hallway. Grabbed her stuff rushed down the hall, while rushing down the hall I noticed that there was wet spot following her. She can't fathom the event which I just told her, it still shocks me. Knowing that a child probably no older than my baby girl, that's hurts me a lot. She doesn't understand that this happens more than you would think. I can't count the amount of times I had to cut to the holding up a lifeless child's body. She was too scared to open the door, she was pacing back and forth. I have to say something to her to make her calm down before entering this part of the world. While she was hiding away from the ones who are hunting her, I was out here burying the young. That was the part I couldn't stand to do anymore. Constantly going outside seeing young ones being sold off, then when they are finally free. All of the pain came rushing back to them, their mental state is all mush. Leaving them do what the children in my room had done to themselves, which is the most heartbreaking thing to see. Is to see when a child sees no better option then to ends its own life, I've been trying to protect ones like these for so long. Each time I do later down the road, I see them like this. I wrapped my arm around her shoulders, moved forward pushed the door back. She saw the bodies the corner of the room, it horrified her. It still breaks my heart, she couldn't understand why. " Jim!, why do they do this?!. They had so much more life to live. Why did they use your sword to send it!?". She cited while saying this, I couldn't find the right words to respond. Honestly what words is the best ones to use in this situation, I can't say I don't know why. Cause of course I know why they used my sword, it's the only thing that doesn't make noise when you cut something. How come I didn't hear them moving my sword around, the sword weighs around twenty pounds. For a child of their stature they would have struggled just to lift it up. They dragged it to the far corner of the room, it's at least ten feet away from the door. I should have at least heard the sound of my sword scratching the floor. " we need to sneak these bodies outside, I know of a place where we can bury them at. You don't have to dig the holes. I can do that, I do need help carrying them though. Trust me this isn't easy for me either, it's the least we can do for them!". She wiped her tears away, picked up the girl. I picked up the boy, we headed into the hallway. I looked down the stairs to see if the lights we on, thank goodness that the lights were off. It makes it harder for anyone to see us. We snucked out of the inn, while taking back alleys out of Daragain. We finally made it out of Daragain without being seen. I pointed to a far away oak tree, she nodded her head. We made our way to the tree, the hill leading up the tree was a humbling one. Once we made it the the tree, she gently placed the girl against the tree. I place the boy right beside her, I walked back twelve paces. This is where I'm going to bury them. I started to dig with my hands, while digging with my hands. The realization hit me, I'm doing this for a child. A child who never saw the greatness in life, who never embraced the beauty of being a man. A child who never became a mother, who never fell in love, will never experience the gift of life. The hole got deeper, once the hole was pass my height i asked Autumn for help, I lifted both of the children up. Gently placing them inside of the hole. Once the children were inside of the hole, I covered them up with the dirt. " Lord!, I know you are saddened with the loss of these beautiful children. But you are also happy that they are with you, please Lord watch over this children. While they make their way to you. Amen!".
