The Questions

I was still shocked by what Enter just did, that wasn't normal, he ran as fast as the flash, he burnt the freaking ground because of how fast he was. I picked him up and said, "How did you do that buddy?"

He just smiled with his tongue out of his mouth. We walked back to the house. Sam and Tyler still asleep, it was 1200 now. Time to start making lunch, I guess. I opened the frozen peas and let them melt in some water. Opened the canned fish, had cut the potatoes, onions, tomatoes and carrots. Took some water in a pan, pit some of the spices in it, mixed it, fried the onions and then the tomatoes in a grill, then dropped them in the pan. Boiled the potatoes and warmed the canned fish in the grill then dropped them in it too.

"WOW! That actually tastes good", I exclaimed after 25 minutes of stirring the stew and then tasting it. This whole process took like 2 hours. I opened the bread that I brought and was about lay it all down in a plate when Sam came from behind me and asked, "What're you even doing?"

"Making lunch, its... its already 1400", I said after looking at the wall clock.

"Couldn't we have just eaten from some restaurant near your place?"

He was right. We could have, but... now that I've made the stew and done the hard work, I couldn't possibly let this go to waste.

"Ah right, we could have but we couldnt because, there is no restaurant around my place, now is there?"

"Well... I guess", he replied. "What'd you make anyways?", he said as he walked past me.

"Fish stew, with potatoes", I said proudly.

"Oh? Tastes go- ", he said after tasting it but then reached out to grab the canned fish box and looked at it for a minute. "Really? Expired canned fish? 'Canned fish'?", he said. "The stew is great, but I'm never eating the fish"

"Whatever, just eat, we're going to Bonge", I said.

At 1500 we were ready to go to Bonge. The full body armor that we'd scavenged from the guys in Botorwa was equipped by Sam, I had my M16. We drive to Bonge and when we arrived in its area and could see it I said, "There it is... the military base, its still about half a mile far, keep driving I'll keep my head down, you stay careful too, we still don't know if the body armor will fully protect you".

We saw some guys standing some kind of check-post, they didn't shoot us, so we didn't either. He motioned us to stop making a stop sign with his palm. Sam stopped the car. "Umm.. Hello err-", Sam said nervously, probably didn't know what to say.

"You know its the US military base, Bonge ahead? And that there has been a 'Coup' a military coup, we've been ordered to shoot anyone, and I mean any civilian on sight, but we soldiers personally do not understand what these higher ups want, so we've tried to pursue everyone to go back", one of the two soldiers said. There was another man in the back sitting on a chair, he was wearing normal civilian clothes. He wasn't a military officer. I got up from my seat. "We came here after reading an article in the news, from someone named 'NoStar_67' online. He wrote to come to Bonge and ask what is going on, so I'd like to ask what is going on?", I said with confidence.

"We personally do not know what's going on and err, we've been given these orders by our commanders and about coming to Bonge we have had to make many people return back, find a way to Russia, or go to the Talpes mountain, there have been rumors of some saints, mages and priests living there helping people.", the other one of the officers said.

"Did you say 'NoStar_67' earlier?", the guy in the back asked after he had gotten up hearing me speak.

"Yes he did, who is he? Please help us! Our friends and his brother were killed in the airport in the South, WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON", Sam said screaming.

Suddenly the radio on both of the military officers grew to life, "What's that noise? Civilians?", the radio said with static, I saw the numbers on the radio, 83.56. "Umm- N- No... ", on of the soldiers panicked and said, but was too late as the alarms were sounded.

"I'm really sorry about this!", the guy the in back screamed as he hit one of the officers in the back of his head with the butt of his pistol knocking him out then shooting the other one with his pistol, it had a silencer equipped. "You kids want to run? Or know the truth?", he asked.

"Truth", I said.

"Get in here hide, get out of the car", the man said.

"Who are you? Why are you helping us? Why were you here in the first place?", Sam asked as he exited the van. We let Tyler and Enter stay in the van because it could get dangerous ahead, I trusted Enter more after what he showed me today.

"I am NoStar_67"
