Jok's Tunnel

Prologue
I swaggered down the street, yes, I know school was in, but I had more important things to do. I looked side to side like I was crossing the street. No one was around, so I carefully lifted up the manhole cover and slipped in.

Chapter one
It was dark; I had to take the flashlight off my belt. I walked down the passage way from the manhole. I was in an underground tunnel. No, it didn’t lead to a far off tropical land, but inside was cool enough. As I reached my destination, I could see the feet of the guard. A guard always stood at the entrance to the maze of underground passage ways. Just in case a workman came down by accident. I was hoping that the guard would be Jok, the normal guard, but this was someone new. “Where’s Jok?” I ask.
“He got sent to the holding center.” replied the new guard. I knew that something was up. “What did he do?”
The new guard seemed surprised that I was still there. “I think it was something like he revolted against the new government.” Oh man, this was getting worse every second! The old ruler or democracy type thing was fine except for the army officer and the people who followed him. They wanted to fight against the humans, because we litter up their world with trash. I had to find Jok, and fast! So I went through the gates and knocked out the new guard who was protesting an above ground human coming in to their world. I knew there would be trouble, and boy was I right.
