The caravan that was leading into Ba Seng Sei started bumping up and down as it hit rocky earth. There were a dozen or so people inside of his wagon type thing, and they were all they same. None of them wanted to go to war, all of them hid once or twice, but all of them were caught. Niero was just looking down at the ground wondering what he was going to do. The farm was no good now since there would probably be no one at hand, and Niero was probably going to die. Great.
A couple people had talked on the way, but most were just in deep though, concentrating on something not moving. Niero was one of them. He was wondering how this could have happened, how he could have been so stupid and foolish to let this happen... At first he had blamed his mother for not alerting him, but he was passed that. It was his own fault for goofing off on a work day. While he should have been tending to the crops, he was out seeing what would happen if chickens were dropped from about three feet in the air-- The answer wasn't worth getting captured and taken to war... They just sort of floated and then landed... The chickens. Not the war thing.
He and these same people had been on the journey for quite some time now. It was a bout a week... Two weeks? Niero had lost count. Sure, they were treated well and fed well, but it was no home. At least Niero didn't have to do labor, that was the best part, but trading labor for death... That wasn't such a wise decision. It's not like he had a choice anyway.
Outside the sun was setting, and through the trees everyone could see the last light rays inching their way through the crevices, and slowly fading away. The caravan leaders began to start multiple fires with flint and sticks. Niero and his group all sat around theres, and were given some raw meat to prepare for themselves. The leaders apparently were too lazy to cook it for five seconds.
As they all ate, some of the guys around him began to talk about how they got captured, Niero remembered. How could he forget, it was embarassing now, but then it was frightening, he thought they were going to kill him if he didn't obey... Which they probably would. Or maybe they'd just put him in jail, but in times of war, killing may be neccesary.

"Well come on here stupid chicken, I know we slaughtered your boyfriend, but if you come here... Well then you get food!" Niero started running around the enclosed area in which the chickens were in. They were all clucking and bawking around, Niero was glaring at every one of them. They were evil chickens of doom. He figured the best way to take this now is to do the one strategy he hadn't done before, corner 'em.
Looking for a chicken that was in the right spot, Niero faced it, and then started walking slow. Which each step the chicken hopped back. Step. Hop. Step... Hop. Step step. Hop hop. Say it with me now. Step *audience* Step... Hop. *audience* Hop! Good! Finally, the chicken hopped back too many times, to where it was now in the corner, and couldn't go any further. A look of panic came across it's face, and Niero grabbed it, holding it in his arms, and exiting the chicken coup.
He found a wooden fence and climbed on top of it, holding the chicken out to full length, and then dropped it. The white ball of feathers flapped it's wings and went down, but just fell down really slowly. It hit the ground, and then ran into the chicken coup, trying to get food. Niero rolled his eyes, but as he did it, something caught his eye. A green, and black robe was in the corner of it. He inched his head all the way to see what was there, and fo found a caravan, and three men standing in front of it, one was holding out a peice of parchment.
Before Niero even hesitated, he started to run. Which was a bad idea, because as the thoughts, "RUN! RUN!" Crossed his head into his legs, he was greeted with a wall. "PAIN! PAIN!" His mind now rung out. Niero was dazed, and sort of tottered back, holding his head with one hand. He kind of looked drunk, and he just needed to sit down for a moment, but then his head was forced on this slab of earth again. A firm hand was stiff and in place, holding the back of his head, and then Niero heard a voice from behind.
"Mr. Niero Kianna," it began, being read off of a letter, "It has come to the Earth Kingdom city of Bai Seng Sai's attention that you have not responded to any of the notcies we have sent out correctly. From the warmaster at Bai Seng Sai, we have been ordered to take you with us on our caravan to Bai Seng Sai."
His mother was right there just staring with lament as Niero accepted his fate and was loaded into the cart. She knew she couldn't do anything.

Niero sat quietly now looking up at the stars, he took a sip of water that really didn't taste all that great. Crap.
