Protectors of Acra Generation 2: Another day to live

Ethan woke up to loud knocking on the door. Ethan got out of his bed and opened the door, it was Bert. "You two need to get your gear ready, Caleb wants you in five minutes," Bert said he closed the door. Ethan rubbed his eyes and opened curtains that were over a window. "Cooper are you awake?" Ethan asked. "Unfortunately," Cooper said.

Caleb was outside watching the sunrise. He saw Anna sitting down at a lake that was close to their base.Verrill walked out and stood by Caleb. "Is she still down there?" Verrill asked. "Yes, I hope she comes back soon because we are heading out on a training mission with the trainees," Caleb said. "Maybe I should just stay behind with Anna while the rest of you go on the training mission," Verrill suggested. "Yes I suppose that would work, if she tries to do anything unnecessary stop her, you need to watch her every move, because at the state of her depression of the loss of Zane she might try to take her own life," Caleb said. Ethan, Sandra, and Cooper walked outside along with Bert and Molly. "Alright everyone, we are heading out into the deep forest and while we are out there we are meeting up with another member of our team, his name is Chad Agarth," Caleb said.

Back at the guardian training barracks, everyone had gone through a lot of hard training and in only two days since Ethan and the others left. "I wonder how Ethan is doing," Aurora said. "I'm sure he is doing fine, we need to focus on training if we don't we could get hurt on the battlefield," Alk said. "You're right," Aurora said they walked over to a big truck they carried soldiers. "I guess we are headed out soon," Alk said. Aurora did not pay attention to Alk's statement. She was too busy staring at Anthony and Tempest, they were talking with Frank and Paul. "And that is how we got here," Frank was finishing a sentence as Aurora walked up. "Do any of you know if we are leaving soon?" Aurora asked. "Yeah, I heard we are leaving first thing tomorrow morning," Frank said. "Alright thank you," Aurora said she walked away fast. "Hmmm, do you think she suspects something?" Paul asked. "I don't know, but I do know that we need to get ditch everyone once we get onto the battlefield," Anthony said. 

Caleb and the others all got into their jeep and drove off heading toward the deep part of the forest. Verrill walked down to the lake where Anna was. She was sitting on the edge of a small dock. "Do you mind if I join you?" Verrill asked. "No, go ahead," Anna replied wiping a tear away. Verrill sat down next to her. The air was very cool and the leaves were blowing around in the autumn wind. "Caleb said he wants me to watch over you," Verrill said. There was a big pause then Anna said: "Caleb thinks I will take my own life doesn't he?" Anna asked. "Yes, yes he does," Verrill said. "I figure...but he is wrong, I would never do that, even if I can bear this depression any longer," Anna said more tears started forming in her eyes. Verrill got out a handkerchief and handed it to her. "I can't bear to see one of my friends cry," Verrill said with a smile that made Anna feel warm inside. She hugged Verrill. "I always knew, that you were a good friend," she said.

Caleb and the rest of the team were riding through the deep forest going to meet up with another member of their team named Chad Agarth who was on a solo mission to go and take out a member of the Morgan crime family. "I wonder why they call this the deep forest," Ethan said allowed. "It's called the deep forest because there is not another opening for miles just trees," Molly replied to Ethan. Caleb stopped the truck. "He should be around here somewhere," Caleb said. Then a man jumped out of a tree and landed on the ground. It was a tall man with a were wolf team jacket, he has a mustache and an undercut hair cut. "I was wondering when you all would get here," the man said. "Well we are here now, Chad I want you to meet Ethan, Cooper, and Sandra, they are new members of our team," Caleb said. "Nice to meet ya, I'm Chad," he said. He got into the truck and they drove off. "But sir I thought we were going to do some training!" Sandra said. "I did say that, but I changed my mind, I have seen what you all have done at the mountain that's why I picked you three, because out of everyone there you three had the most power, so there is no need to train anymore, but you will learn things along your way," Caleb said. "Where is Anna, Zane, Verrill, and Lillis?" Chad asked. Caleb was quiet for a moment then he replied. "Anna and Verrill are back at the base, Zane, and Lillis......they did not make it". "Oh....I see," Chad said sloping down in his seat, becoming very quiet. "But we will remember them for who they were, not how they died, we will carry on their memories," Caleb said as they soon got closer to returning to the base.
