Food War Part 3: Captured

Cortus walked slowly towards the table and poked around the corner to see Apolo and some guards standing there, looking after the rest of the fruit. “Guys, look, there’s that apple, we must find a way to destroy all of them” Whispered Cortus. “Can we also have a name just like you?” Said a Brocoli. “I was thinking of like, Barder”. “Whatever you want, anyway, we have a mission, let’s move” Whispered Cortus. “Barder, you and this cauliflower and brussel sprout, you make a distraction, you Capsicium and you corn come with me”. “Actually, my name is Bruce” Said the brussel sprout. “And my name is Carv” Said the Capsicium. “And my name is Corin” Said the cauliflower. “And my name is Codar” Said the corn. “Whatever, lets go” Said Cortus as they went of in different directions. “Oy there, come and get us” Said Barder as he and Bruce and Corin ran back making some of the guards chase them. “Wait, I feel like this is a trap, why would they come all the way here just to run away, I hope that Airin, Pardin, Arear and Canata are ok” Said Apolo as he and some other guards looked around. “On the count of three, charge in and slaughter them, 1,2,3 charge!!!” Shouted as apolo and the guards turned to face them. “Watch out!!” Shouted Apolo. The closest guard faced Cortus but before he could react, he got killed. “Feinus!!” Shouted Apolo, looking angrily at Cortus. The fruit and the vegetables kept on fighting each other with sharp sword thing’s. After a while, only two other fruit that were fighting were alive. “Barvine, we must keep fighting” Said Apolo. “Got it, sir” Said the yellow banana. They kept on fighting until they got beaten. “Surrender or else you and your fruits friend’s will die” Said Cortus. “Ok” Said Apolo calmly. Cortus then knock Apolo and Barvine out.




Meanwhile, Airin, Pardin, Arear and Canata were still chasing Barder, Carv and Codar. “Do you feel like were walking into a trap?” Asked Arear, who was an Apricot. “Why would this be a trap?” Laughed Canata, who was a Carambola. After about 7 minutes, they all made it to the stairs and everyone was puffed out. The Vegetables slowly climbed up the stairs and shouted as loud as they could “Get them”. The vegetable’s then charged down the stairs at the fruit. “Incoming!!” Shouted Airin, who was a avocado, as he, Arear and Pardin jumped out the way just in time but Canata got killed by all the vegetables. They all the hid behind the leg of the table for about 5 minutes and then one of the vegetables found them. “Get them!” Shouted the vegetable. Airin, Arear and Pardin ran away and then got chased by all the vegetables. The vegetables caught up with the fruit and caught them. The vegetables then killed Pardin and stabbed Arear. They vegetables then started punching and kicking and cutting Arear and Airin. After beating up Arear and Airin, Carv came up and said “you should have joined our side, we could have been friends, and we could have ruled the land.” “I joined the fruit because I am a part of their life, so you cannot turn me no matter what you do” said Arear. “Fine” Said Carv as he got his sword out and stabbed Arear again. “Come on boys, lets go kick some fruity butt” Said Carv as he and the vegetables charged towards where the fruit was.



Arear and Airin then decided that they would try find from the candy and hopefully free their people from the vegetables. They both crawled in different directions for hours but after a while, Arear fell to the ground. “Arear, Arear, are you ok” Said Airin as he crawled next to Arears body. “I…..I….I won’t make it” Said Arear. “No. You will. Just.. just.. hang on for a bit, ok” Said Airin with a shiver in his voice. “No… l-leave me. You must f-find the c-candy and then save our species, you must… ok” Said Arear. “Ok… but… I don’t want to lose you” Said Airin. With one final breath, Arear said “Sometimes, you have to lose what you love to save what you need…. Goodbye… my friend”, then, he closed his eyes and fell back.

“W-wait, what, where.. where am I” Said Apolo as he looked at Barvine, then he looked at Cortus. “Cortus, lets us go, now” Said Apolo. “Sure, after I slaughter you and your people” Laughed Cortus. “You didn’t get all of us. Airin, Canata, Pardin and Arear are still out there, probably wrecking your people” Said Apolo with a grin. A moment later, all the vegetables came running towards them. “Did you kill the other fruit” Said Cortus instantly. “We killed two of them, and left the other two to die after beating them up” Said Carv. “Very good, Apulu, Aparla, whatever your stupid name is, it looks like your friends have failed you” Laughed Cortus. Whatever your doing, wherever you are, I hope you guys can get help, if your still alive, if you can even find help. You are our only hope, thought Apolo, hoping his friends could have him.
