Chapter 18 - the teens plan
“I’m sorry Ro! I didn’t mean too!” Leo apologised once again as Rowan just turned away from him. Giving him the silent treatment. She wasn’t actually annoyed at him for interrupting her and Sky, she just found it funny annoying him like this.
“What happened?” Marcel asked, coming up from behind them. Both Rowan and Leo immediately straightened up and exchanged a glance.
“Nothing” they simultaneously said before walking further into the town hall. They had all agreed to meet there last night after Leo and Rowan had come back from the beach. Leo wanted to talk about Miles, something Toby had brought up to him about Miles being a bit childish. Rowan was a little harsh and told Leo that Toby needed to mind his own business but luckily it didn’t seem to affect Leo too much as he just carried on feeling bad for interrupting her and Sky. She was glad that was

The Clash Chapter 1 - so it begins
A small disclaimer before anyone reads: This story will involve wlw relationships, questioning of gender identity, questioning of sexuality, mental health concerns and a male character will allude to a past of sexual abuse (it's never actually mentioned but enough hints are dropped by the character and others). If any of this is triggering please do not read any further. If not then feel free to read if you would like :) --- A war was coming. Rowan could tell with the way everyone around her began to act. She had a feeling this was going to happen for a while now, but now that it was actually happening it seemed unreal. She watched from her position up on the trees a
The Clash Chapter 2 - the first move
Toby shot out of bed as a loud scream echoed throughout the air. He immediately jumped to alert, his brain pumping wildly with adrenaline. He quickly rushed outside, making sure to grab his sword on the way out. Rushing out his house he noticed Eliza staring horrified at something over the walls that surrounded their nation. It took Toby a second to spot it but his face grew pale once he did. There was a plume of smoke coming from the forest. It was little to begin with but grew bigger and darker every minute, it was turning into a deathly black cloud. Leo and another citizen Samuel went running towards the gate to go see what was happening. Toby hadn't even noticed they were out here, but he soon followed after them. It did
The Clash Chapter 3 - game on
Toby was once again startled awake, this time luckily it wasn't because someone screamed. Instead it was a pillow smacking him in the head a few times. He groaned as he finally built up the energy to look up at whoever decided to annoy him. Once he saw who it was he rolled his eyes and pushed his head back into his pillow. Of course he should've known it would be Leo, who else would it be? "Come on Toby! Get up!" Leo yelled enthusiastically and Toby grimaced and how he was such a morning person. Reluctantly sighing and giving in, Toby sat up knowing that Leo wouldn't go away anytime soon. "What do you want?" He mumbled glaring at his best friend."I don't know, I'm just bored" Leo replied, flopping down next to where Toby was sitting. As he looked down at his friend who was n
The Clash Chapter 4 - retaliation
Rowan was on edge the whole day, the letter last night completely threw her off. She'd prepared more for Miles' arrival later though as right now she needed to check on the nations, she wanted to see if anything else had happened. Or if it looked like anything was about to happen. Rika was always her first option to go too, it was the furthest away from her home so she could stop at Lamarie on her way back. The forest was eerily quiet today, usually being filled with the sounds of animals and nature buzzing around her, it was odd that it was so silent. It didn't even look as pretty and vibrant as usual, the bright green grass and leaves looked muted and like they were dying. What was going on? She had no idea. It felt unsettling so she sped her pace up until she ar
The Clash Chapter 5 - consequences
Everything hit the ceiling as soon as the sun came up. Toby found himself rudely awakened for the third day in a row, this time by hearing people yelling. He acted quickly once again, getting up and grabbing his sword before running outside. Outside the air felt off. Instead of the nice, calming atmosphere of his nation it was replaced with a hostile and tense one."You!" Daniel seethed pointing at Toby as he walked up to Caleb's side.Caleb, Toby and Maya were standing opposite Daniel, Ethan and Wyatt. All three of the enemies looked pissed off and their attention was solely on Toby who began to fidget nervously. Caleb must've noticed his distress as he protectively took a step in front of him. It calmed Toby down slightly but he was still on edge."You better hand that little p
The Clash Chapter 6 - negotiations
Rowan made it back to her house when the sun began to set. She had been gone for longer than she had expected so she hoped Leo hadn't woken up and left. He wasn't in any fit state to be wandering around the cave systems or the forest. She was relieved to see him still laying on the bed, he was awake but still here. "Thank you for helping me, whoever you are" Leo said, half-serious half-jokey. Rowan smiled, he still had his humour which was good. She watched as he became less tense after she smiled, he was probably still on guard slightly given she was a complete stranger. "Can you turn over for me?" She asked nicely, it surprised her how kind her voice sounded. Leo did as asked and turned over so Rowan could remove the bandages off him to check his wound. It was healing well so far but it'd take at least two weeks for him to be back u
The Clash Chapter 7 - going out
After spending a little longer on the beach Rowan decided it was time for her to head home. She was pretty tired by now so the main thing on her mind was her bed. The walk back was pretty normal to begin with but it soon took a turn. A sound of a stick breaking nearby was the first thing that caught her attention. She stopped in her tracks, glancing around to see what could've caused the sound. There was nothing, no sign of any movement but Rowan knew there was something out there. It could've just been an animal but it left her feeling paranoid. Her mind screamed at her to move, that this wasn't an animal and it wasn't Sky coming back, this was something else- someone else. Two men emerged from the trees, both wearing Lamarie uniforms. Why the hell were they out h
The Clash Chapter 8 - a few new faces
Toby was pacing. He was stressed. Not only did they need to find Leo they also had discovered an unidentified person in the forest. The stranger could be one of Jon's men out searching for Leo or they could just be some poor traveller who found themselves in the wrong forest and the wrong time. Until they could figure out which one the person was they'd all be on high alert. This was something Caleb was now trying to deal with, after all if they did work for Jon they may find Leo or have already found Leo, though that wasn't something Toby was ready to admit. Samuel was beating himself up for letting them get away but when they neared the cliff side all four of them thought there was surely nowhere else to go. That was the only thing that made him believe this person was used to the forest, they knew exactly where they cou
