Its 1862 and the Civil War is still going on, Johnny Colam was at his house watching his mother and his small brother and sisters since his father was in the war. Later that day up the drive they saw military men and they knew that they contained the letter saying that his father had died by friendly fire. His mother was especially sad but Johnny was very surprised that his father ,since he was such a good soldier, had died. The next week A general came to thier house and told his mother that Johnny was to be sent to war to replace his father. His mother ,trying to beg and beg to keep Johnny at home, had failed. Johnny had to go to war that day. He went day and night for five weeks and thought he was not going to survive."I need water I need food" he tried to say they had a limit of food and water since it they needed a lot to survive the war. It was very cold and many soldiers have fallen but been replaced by new recruits.

On the way Johnny and another soldier were sent to hide behind trees near where one of the enemy soldiers were going. But to their surprise the soldier turned and motioned more soldiers to come with. As they watched the soldiers they lost sight of them. "Where did they go" Johnny whispered. His partners response was just 1 shrug of his shoulders. All of a sudden Johnny and the other soldier were GRABBED. They were taken to the enemy's chamber and locked up. Johnny and his partner were thrown into the chamber. "I should of known this would happen" The other soldier said. "Luckily I snuck in and pretended to be my brother.
                
            "What do you mean"
              
             "Wait your a girl" Johnny was very surprised. "My name is Shana" the girl said. All of a sudden cling clang click screech they looked and saw a girl and boy at the cell door and they said "come with me and Kano"
Johnny and Shana nodded and followed. "My name is filiona" she said as they followed then they stopped. GUARDS EVERYWHERE! They were surrounded slowly they all rose up there hands but filiona did not. Instead of surrendering she just stood there. Finally when the guards came closer by 2 steps filiona kicked and punched and did the hardest move out of all the fighting moves,the thunder swirl, and she did it perfectly.

They watched as she kicked and punched and blocked the guards weapons. "Ok let's move". The three just stared with wide open eyes.
"Well are you coming". All three blinked twice and followed once again.
                
    "How did she do that" thought Johnny. He felt like he knew filiona from somewhere and at that moment he had a vision. A girl with black hair and tan skin was walking on a skinny pipe and fell off and must of drowned but the body was not discovered."It couldn't be it just couldn't" he said quietly to himself.

   The place they were taken to was a old cabin with many hand made weapons. They each chose one. Kano chose the staff, Filiona chose the chain and Shana chose the knife. "I i can't use a weapon I can shoot though." Th others just glared at Johnny and gave him a metal polet  

"Hey hey hey" Johnny jumped up from the sudden noise. "EN GARDE"Johnny yelled as his hand flew across the room like a clumsy sword.
           "OW" THUMP "SHANA!"

"Huh"  Jhonney finally  opens his eyes and saw a hard pole in his hand then looking down saw Shana with blood out her nose and mouth uncauncious lying on the floor.
