Nobody gives a fck about Campbell

"Oh, and why should anyone listen to y-

Bang!!

A gunshot echoed out inside the church once again making everyone's ears ring but what made everyone go into shock was Campbell's body hitting the floor with his brains made into a bloody mist that sprayed in all directions.

Not a peep was made in the church as no one dared to even breathe as they looked at John who was putting his pistol back into his holster.

"Questioning the Chancellor and trying to start a rebellion, your punishment for breaking these laws is death," I said aloud so that everyone could hear.

It was now that they all finally understood how real everything was. They had all just seen the council as a formality and not really as an established thing, even Cassandra and Allie didn't really think at all about upholding laws and actually killing anyone.

That's why he did this. Well he also wanted to kill Campbell as the guy was a major problem

"The schedules will be posted once you leave. Make sure to be at your jobs tomorrow and to keep a lookout for the House list that will be going up tomorrow. If you want to try out and attempt to be a guard that will be held this Friday. Everyone have a good night." John waved calmly before walking out of the church with his four guards following behind him.

After John left everyone seemed to wake up from their shocked state, and surprisingly everyone seemed calm except for a few.

Everyone checked the schedule outside the church to see if they had cooking or garbage duty and those that didn't teased those that did.

Finally, everyone headed home and discussions about the Council and John started in every household.

Gwen POV

"That John guy is fucking insane. He actually killed someone!" Olivia yelled while freaking out a little. 

"Calm down Olivia, I mean he kind of did us a favor, no? Campbell was a total psychopath." Madison said while painting her nails. 

"Yeah, plus he's not entirely wrong about the food situation," Erika said

All four girls then looked at each other with a small smirk.

"Plus he's totally hot," Gwen whispered 

"Hahaha!" The girls broke out laughing and already forgot that someone had just been killed in front of them. 

Helena and Luke POV 

"So you're telling me you are part of the guard and that John isn't some fucking psychopath?" Helena said while staring at Luke who was let off duty for the rest of the night.

"Uhh yeahh?" Luke said unconfidently.

"Well, that's good because the whole Council idea is actually pretty good and we finally have someone around here with some fucking balls," Helena said before downing a glass of wine.

"I have balls." Luke blurted out before realizing what he had said and blushed in embarrassment.

"Ehhhh." Helena twisted her hand in a so-so gesture.

"This John guy, can you set up a meeting between us?" Helena asked

"Maybe, but this guy isn't just someone you can tell what to do," Luke said with some fear in his voice.

"Just ask and see what you can do," Helena said before kissing Luke on the cheek but she could tell there was something up with him.

"Don't tell me you actually like that Emily bitch." Helena slapped the table making Luke jump.

"No, I don't I swear!" Luke said with almost no confidence it was almost pitiful.

"Chh!" Helena walked away in disgust. She had liked Luke but ever since being here, she started to realize how much of a pussy he was.

John POV

"I'm sorry I got mad at you John, but I didn't know who Campbell really was until Sam just told us," Cassandra said.

After everyone had left the church John had given the guards the rest of the day off but as he was walking home Cassandra had basically jumped him and started throwing a huge tantrum.

So he told her that she needed to know the truth and to invite her sister over along with Will and even Grizz and a few others decided to follow along to hear my explanation including his new friend Elle.

I called Sam over who also brought along Becca and Sam told everyone how Campbel was a psychopath with no feelings.

That's when everyone understood why he had decided to make an example of Campbell rather than someone innocent.

"It's fine, it was kind of my fault as well. I shouldn't have left you two completely out of the plan. I just didn't know if y'all could have made the same decision even if you had known the truth about Campbell." John said while taking a sip of his whiskey.

Everyone sat in silence for a minute and just thought about everything that had happened today before John interrupted the peace.

"Alright everyone out! This ain't a fucking hangout. Go! Shoo!" John waved everyone out and they all chuckled as they ran off. 

"So you're still here huh?" John said before looking over at Elle who was in a beautiful blue dress and was staring at him while biting her pink lips.
