XI The Mystic

After following the two men for a day now they finally got to base Bravo. There was a long line of survivors waiting for their turn to show that they were useful to the base. So Caspian concluded that the base only picks people that could benefit the base and not some random people just coming and go in the base.

So he just lined up like the others, to not get in trouble or make a scene because this will just make him wait longer. And Caspian hates waiting.

Some minutes later...

The people he followed were now in front of the line while he was next. He watched as they were flaunting that they did stuff and that. The person checking told them to stop and said for them to defeat someone that has got in the base.

They agreed and also arrogantly said that they might hurt the person too much the one guarding smiled and said that it was ok.

After awhile a big buff man walked out of the base and asked the guard why he was called there the guard smiled and got his face close to the ear of the man and whispered.

The Buff man smiled and said to the two men that they needed to defeat him, the two awkwardly laughed and then ran to the man with a small knife in hand. But the buff man got a hold of his arm and added pressure to it. The person screamed and said that he forfeits the match he lost and begged the buff man to let go and the buff man did and said scram to the two men.

The two cowardly ran away never to be seen again. After that the guard went close to Caspian and asked "What can you do?"

Caspian paused and looked at the man and said that he can cook and fight. The guard then said to the buff man to assist Caspian to the training ground.

There he saw many people showcasing their in fighting. The buff man asked some other dude to help him get some space to test me.

After sometime the man came back and pointed at a small space we could spar. They walked there and got ready to fight. The man stood firm and stared at Caspian while he just stood there waiting for the man to start the match between them.

When his arm has gone down signaling the match had begun, Caspian side step when the buff man launched a punch to him. Then Caspian pulled the stretched arm towards him and went closer to the buff man then he stepped on the man's hip and got onto his back then pulled out a knife from his jacket to the buff-man's neck.

It all happened too quickly that the buff man didn't have time to react and just surrendered. The guy from before clapped and said "So your fast and slippery like a snake huh?."

Caspian just stared at him and stood waiting for further instructions. The guy laughed and patted Caspian at the back then led him to some big apartment building.
