Chapter 14
When Sovine deferred the revolver, our skin scuffed at each other and hasty ripples of his memories ramble inside my mind. Like a scorching force of curtain flame burning every thread of my being, puncturing my flesh with a thousand electrifying thorns.
I rasped before immediately withdrawing my hand.
"Are you alright?" Cerulean noticed my sudden aberrations.
I quickly nodded with protruded lips. "I'm good. Let's head up."
Sovine turned on the engine before maneuvering away from the dilapidated base that run down through doom.
While departing from the abandoned hospital, there's a throng of zombies in every alcove of the road. Their appalling pitch had perforated my ears and it wasn't decent to listen to.
"I can command the Black Vultures to pave the way for us." Sovine proposed while dashing me a glance.
"So, you're thinking like a comrade now?" I taunted while a furtive smirk stemmed on my lips.
He frowned, his brows mustered

"Step forward and lift your hands.""I have my dog within my arms, thus, I can't do that. Besides, I can't inflict you any harm." I explained with a miserable face.Damn. This is way pathetic for my forte.He mulled over his thinking for a minute before agreeing. Then, at my peripheral, Cerulean and Sovine were already captured and pushed to my side."They only have three guns with them and this truck." his comrade told him and he nodded after hearing that."That's enough for now. Astro, go fixed the trap and after that, led this truck to the other. And the three of you," he glanced at us and declared, "Come with me. You'll have a load of labor to do."The three of us gazed at each other meaningfully. Through stares, every one of us can tell about each other's thoughts.I think, our guess was accurate. Perhaps, Lieutenant William and the other survivors were seized in this decoy and walled them in to suppose upon better use of them, o

Lieutenant William once again pulled my arm and dragged me out without granting the man to retort. I'm quite confused as why did the Lieutenant knows that guy. Are they acquainted before?"I thought you got seized by them?" I implored, a bit perplexed about the twisted situation."We got hooked by their trap but that man earlier was part of the army before. We're compatriots and so we sort things out."Then, he halted from his pace. "I'm guessing that you've got busted in their bait, too?""Ahuh. If not, then why am I here?"Lieutenant William chuckled a little. "Are you all by yourself?"I shook my head. "I have two pals with me but he tugged them out someplace."He hummed before undoing his grasp on my hand."We have an estimated hour's ride to enter the border of the North. Are you still apt for finding your mother there?""I'm sure of it since the very beginning, Lieutenant," I replied regardless of the bafflement mu

"So... we're not a slave or something anymore?"Sovine placed his hands in his waistline while giving us a ridiculous stare."No," I told him and shifted my eyes to Cerulean. "Lieutenant William settled everything with his pal. I guess, they're gonna pulverize their primary agenda on trapping other people once more.""That's it?" Sovine's eyes squinted. "After they ordered us to clean their own mess? I'm a fucking Royalty for fuck sake! I've never been humiliated in my entire life and do this kind of shit!""Sovine, calm yourself. We're still in their territory. We can't act recklessly as of the moment."He breathes sharply and glared at me. "I can destroy this if I want to if it wasn't for you interrupting my plan! It's your fucking fault, Xiomara!"My eyes veered sharp and if the peril glint in my orbs can kill, then he'll be a lump of dead meat right now."If I wasn't here to hinder your plan, then what about the humanity? Sovine,

"What do you know about the Royal clan?" she asked, eyeing Cerulean and Sovine intently.We were in the secluded place this place has. Just like the hospital back there, this headquarters has an underground base."They were the ones who started this mess."Constant gasps fled from their mouths but the arrogant woman hushed them."How can they do this?""They were hungry for power. Hence, they want to dominate the world through this." Sovine honestly spilled the truth."The rain..." Lieutenant William muttered before our eyes locked at each other. He avoided his gaze from me and stared at Sovine. "They ignited their desires through that, did they?"Sovine nodded. "Yes because it's the most convenient way. The virus can spread widely throughout the whole world by fabricating an artificial rain that consists of a deadly virus.""So the rain wasn't a natural phenomenon at all.""You're right at that. They want their greed to

However, when I was about to stab her skull and end her life through that, a familiar voice halted me from doing so."Xiomara..."When I turned my back to confirm the sprouting suspicion in my heart, my lips parted instantly after seeing him bare and breathing alive in front of me."Herofus..." I whispered and my eyes almost drench with tears if I didn't stop myself from crying."Y-you're alive..."He paces closer to me and I can clearly notice the rippling of his tears in the corner of his eyelids. There was a joy flickering in his orbs while looking at me without bothering to trouble himself from the aground shrouding us.Before I knew it, he was already hugging me tightly while sobbing in my arms. I gaped at the thought that maybe he was so scared from this chaos resurrecting in a wink. And perhaps, he also thought that I'm dead, worst, one of those zombies hovering around."I-I finally found you, Xiomara. I've been looking for you

There was sudden tranquility behind the doors. The stillness was deafening but I know that the igniting chaos was stirring beneath the hush.The moment my eyes fluttered wide, I can feel the shifting hues of my orbs, like a beast that knows how to camouflage throughout the course.It was also further bizarre that my senses heightened that even a drop of sweat on the ground, my eyes can follow its ebb of dipping."Xiomara... what's happening to your eyes?"But I couldn't answer him when a spray of strong force tore through the line of the front pavement, shattering the frigid foundation.Everything was ravaged, spewing cement shards everywhere.I loosened the pack of my brisk fists. I took a deep breath when my head swam and I felt my stomach twitch, and I almost throw up by the dizziness surging in every fiber of my being. I stayed that way for a bit, on my hands and knees with my head hanging, like a winded horse.I heard voices but

The wind howls, like a beast declaring the ownership of the territory. Stretching my arms upward, the gust of breeze was snapping the entire space, lifting the paving bullets in the air, and hovered around me with a rigid stance raging to penetrate anyone.They were already running, afraid that death was welcoming them in open arms. Then, I took another step forward, crowding them with the imperceptible force I gathered in a flick."She's one of them! A devil in human's clothing!""Fuck! Somebody, kill her!"My rage doubled when that phrase was like a poison held with so much grudge ran through my hearing."Yeah? I'm a demon, huh? How about this!"Like a wave rushing in the surface of the water, the fury of the flying bullets dashes through the flow of the wind towards them.They kept running but the shots were chasing over them whenever they go. And to those who were stagnant with their pace, the doom was ruffling at them already.

I woke up with my head suffering from discomfort and pain. A grunt rebelled from my mouth before I kneaded my temple to alleviate the pain somehow.However, some footsteps came rushing towards this dim room. Gazing in the direction from where the sound came from, I saw a tall figure approaching through the shadowy hallway. He was obscured by the dusk but when he entered inside, I saw the face of the man who intruded this cabin.All my meandering thoughts drove into an abrupt halt as he ceased in front of me, placing something on the small table near the bed."Lieutenant, how many days I was out?"He hands me a bowl of brothy soup. Then, he pulled the chair over and settled down.My attention darted to the bowl of soup. The smell is amazing and my stomach is grumbling at me to hurry and eat it."Before I answer that, fill your stomach first."I nodded despite the query I have in mind to ask but I tugged it aside and concede to his stat
