All Chapters of The Perfect Traitor : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Gwen slumped against the side of the building, trying to calm her beating heart, but then she saw a few people around the corner and approach her. She immediately jumped into action and held up her gun, ready to shoot, but then calmed down when she saw that it was people on her side.“Chester what are you doing?!” one of them yelled, she remembered that he was of higher rank than her, she didn’t know how or what it was, but she still decided to hold back on any sarcasm she would have used in a tense situation.“We are dying out there! We stand no chance against those people, we are being cornered and they are slaughtering us! What was I supposed to do?! Stand there and let them kill us all?!” Gwen waved her hands, and almost facepalmed, realized that she was sarcastic. It came out so naturally sometimes. And besides, it kind of was the perfect way to get her point across. She had no clue why people were just s

Once Gwen crossed the road, she had realized that there were two shooting ranges on either side of the main road. She didn’t need to cross the road. Gwen felt like an idiot as she maneuvered through the forest and practically kicked herself at her stupidity. But it was already done and she had survived, which meant that she was supposed to cross the road. And when she was able to see the shooting rage through the trees, she was able to see why.The storage shed was being protected by Estrillian soldiers. There were some soldiers in the front keeping back the enemy and there were also soldiers in the forest that were shooting them. Gwen was sure that if she got a good enough chance, she would be able to grab enough ammunition and join back into the fight.At the edge of the forest, Gwen was pleased to see the General and some other soldiers surrounding him. They were providing support for the soldiers in the open field.

Once they got to the top of the field, they knew they had reached far enough. They walked along the length of the field and then went across the width, stopping when they got to the middle. "You know even if we do this, and the General does not get mad, I'm not going to let you blame it all on me." Ace spoke out of nowhere. "Has that seriously been on your mind this entire time?" Gwen asked incredulously. "Yes, I'd rather not get in trouble with him." "This is war, there should be exceptions. And if he does get angry, then you should obviously take the fall because you're the favorite child." Gwen said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. Ace scoffed. "Just because

Once back in the forest, she told the group that Ace and her were fine and that the area on the other side of the forest was bright enough for people to do what they needed without fumbling around the dark. The fire could be seen through and above the forest but the light was not bright enough to really do much for the people on the other side of the trees. There was a difference, and if anything, it was actually a disadvantage to the soldiers hiding in the forest, because the fire was behind them and so it could actually help the Paria-Drae soldiers spot their silhouettes. But the fire did also help them make out the movements of the enemy more, so it was slightly helpful to them. Gwen didn’t have to tell them all of this. They were older and more experienced than her, they would be fine on their own. She had already decided about where her position in the fight was. In the shadows with a clear shot of everything. Her body did still ache from the fall an

The group garnered some attention and Gwen saw the look on Captain Marcus’ face when he saw her. Relief. He was relieved and Gwen was relieved to see him as well. Gwen had also not seen Ace and she was glad that he didn’t come and annoy her. She was sure that the first thing out of his mouth would be some nonsense along the lines of:“I didn’t actually think you would be able to survive. It was probably due to luck and nothing else. Or what, did you hide in the forest the entire time. Because while you were doing that, I was busy fighting for my country and trying to save us all. If you can’t even do this, then you should just go back to Naudis and not worry about things that concern you.”Gwen clicked her tongue at the thought. Hoping that it would not come to that.“Gwen,” the Captain said, approaching her.The Captain had some bandages on his face and he w
