The Siege Continues

The lifeless body of the man fell on the ground with a thud. Joshua kicked the body, sending it tumbling downhill. 

"They were climbing up – I had to stop him somehow." There wasn't a hint of remorse in his voice. He acted as if killing another human – an actual person who had a life of his own before getting trapped in this game – was perfectly normal. Almost as if it was the right choice.

I felt sick to my stomach. 

A fearful and pained wail sounded. I turned back to see the only guy still standing run off downhill in a hurry. 

"Idiot!" Vincent shouted His long steps carried him to his brother. He grabbed Joshua's shoulders. "Why did you kill him? You just took away the only reason they had to not kill us!"
