wolves

Almost all the soldiers turn around to the side of the wolves. Only a few keep a eye on the surroundings. About 20 soldiers start to fire on the wolves. 1 .. 2.. 3... die. In the blink of an eye. The once so mighty wolves fall down. Are they this weak? What was i thinking. I step outside the vehicle. Ready to do my duty. As a proud citizen of the Netherlands!

"What are you doing??"

Ron asks angrily.

"What do you mean? This is just shooting a bunch of overgrown wolves!"

And then my eyes went wide open. The dogs have already reached the first soldiers. Even trough there are only 15 left now. This does not look good. I quickly get inside. The first soldier gets bitten!

!!!

The wolf bites his head of! And swallows it whole without issue. Now the other wolves also reach the soldiers and begin their meal.

"This will be a slaughter!!! Drive away now!"

I scream. Luckily i with my bright mind already had the insights to order the driver to turn on the engine. The truck with the machine gun seems to have the same idea as me. They start to drive towards the nearest road.

"Cut them off and take the road!"

I order. And the driver quickly cuts them off and we drive off. With the truck behind us. It is still shooting at the wolves. The car quickly drives away from them. And we reach a corner. We go right. And the truck follows us. We follow this road while driving fast. The driver sometimes has to avoid holes in the road. Leftovers of earlier battles. We keep driving but the road keeps getting worse. So we are losing our pace. We can only drive about 30km an hour here. So we keep that pace and when we know we are far enough away we park our car alongside the road. The truck behind us also stops.

I step outside my car and walk towards the truck.

"Why did you guys run?"

The soldier in the window seat gets a look of shame. He does not know what to say.

"Are you ignoring me? How dare you?"

2 soldiers walk from the side the truck towards me. They should be the ones behind the machine gun.

"Now now, don't be angry. Our sargent ordered us to protect you. So we simply followed you to protect you. So we did not desert."

The soldier answers slily.

"Okay but just make sure to follow my orders till we reach the next checkpoint."

"Yes sir!"

All the soldiers scream while saluting.

I am getting tired of all this driving.

"Set up camp."

It is time for my beauty sleep. Even trough it is not close to being dark now.

"Sir it is only 2 hours driving. We should get out of here."

"Then leave."

"Sir, we are here to protect you. We obviously can not leave you here."

"Then be quiet so i can fall asleep faster. Ron! Get me my blanket!"

Ron walks towards the back off the car and opens the trunk. He reaches inside the trunk and grabs something. When he pulls his hand back we can see what he has. It is my favourite travel blanket. It is one i had a few scientist work on for a few years. It can adapt to the heat of the surroundings. It will either give off heat or cold. It also is really soft but it still gives enough protection from all kinds off floors. You can even lay down on pointy rocks. It is also capable blocking the rain. I call it the blankson blanket. We are in the process of bringing it into the market.

Ron walks towards a nice grass field and lays my blanket there. I walk towards it and get inside. I wrap my blanket around me. I close my eyes. What a wonderful they this has been. I wonder what kind of dream i will have.

I get a por.

"Young master! Wake up!"

I slowly open my eyes. The light of the sun is still shining brightly. Who dares to wake me up.

"Lets get you inside".

It is Ron. Okay since it is Ron, there should at least be a good reason. While he drags me towards the car i slowly start to follow along. Still not completely awake. I hear a door opening and get pushed into the car. This sudden action seems to wake me up completely.

I look outside of the window. Ron is running towards the front door to get inside. Behind me the soldiers are also getting into position on the truck. Are we getting attacked again?

AAAAAAwWWOoooooOO!!!!

A mighty war cry. I look behind the truck. And in the distance i see the pack of wolves again. They followed us! But this time there are only 7.

"Why rush for so few wolves?"

Ron already got into the car.

"Look there young master, it is not 7 wolves."

Is there another pack? That would be bad! I quickly look to that side while the engine starts. The car starts to drive away from the wolves. And they start running towards us. But where is the other pack? I move my sight to the right. Huh? There is only 1 wolf there? What is the big deal. But then it starts to run towards us. Hah funny. It is so far away and thinks it can outrun a car.

Our car speeds up and reaches 80km an hour on this road filled with holes. This can be dangerous. But at least we will lose the wolves. The group of wolves increases their speed. The 100 meter distance is now 130 meters. So it seems they are incredibly slow.

"Why the panic?"

I ask exhaustedly. These incompetent servants really tire me out.

"Faster! Faster!"

Ron screams panickly to the driver.

What is he so upset about. I look to the slow doggies and see that we are even further away. So that can't be the problem. I look towards the the lonesome wolf who should be away even further.

!!!

It runs straight to a abandoned house! And that's not all. It is the same size of a 3 story home! And it is far faster than the other wolves. Even faster than us!

"Don't be lazy! Drive faster!"

Although. This is a nice change of pace. We have been seeing the same scenery since our arrival here. I am getting sick of seeing broken farmland, broken houses and villages and some grass fields. At least we have a nice dog chasing us now. Should i try to tame it? Okay maybe after he is exhausted after chasing us. I still got some nice meat in the car to feed the dog. But, it is quite big. So i don't think it will be enough. But wait, why is this zone so big. Since Ron did not mention this zone like it was a big thing. And the Netherlands is small. So such a big zone should be big news. What is going on?

!!!

"rat-tat-tat-tat-tat"

While i was deep in thought my not yet catched dog is only 40 meters away from the truck with the machine gun. So they are obviously firing on my dog. Should i call them off? I do not want to hurt my dog afterall.
