Chapter 7

It has been a few hours since the hoard of humans appeared, Levy tried to help get rid of them but couldn't in the end. The rest of the team quickly took care of them, not wanting their sensitive friend to experience killing them, they all knew it would haunt her.

"Phew those things were a bother to get rid of." said Devon wiping his brow causing the robot to mimic his movement.

"You can say that again." agreed Thorin.

John nodded his head and scanned the area if there were any left. By the time they finished it was nightfall so they set up camp again but this time in an area not anywhere near the forest.

Devon and John had just left to go hunt for something to eat out of their robots, so it was only Thorin and Levy siting by the fire.

"How are you feeling?" asked Thorin.

"I don't know how to feel, don't you feel guilt for killing those people." mumbled Levy.

"Those things were not people Lev!I don't know what they were..." said Thorin

"But they wore normal clothes so they had to be human!" answered Levy.

"OK so maybe they were human once before, they aren't now, they all were probably suffering pleading to be put out of their misery which would be the most humane thing to do yet you didn't want to kill them you just left them if that happens to us would you also leave us alone to suffer is that what you fucking want!" shouted Thorin.

Levy didn't say anything as she just silently broke into tears , Thorin also had small tears in her eyes, of course she was sad and angry that those things had to appear, but it was simply a decision for her, it was either her team, her friends over some random person that can't count as being human anymore. The answer was simple, she saved them.

Thorin didn't say anything as she just scooted over to Levy and hugged her. Neither of them said anything, they just cried and let everything out.

"All right these rabbits are fit for a king wouldn't you guy..." he started to say only to keep quiet.

Devon didn't finish his sentence as he and John saw the scene of Thorin and Levy crying and hugging each other.

"Uh what did we miss?" asked John.

Later that evening both the girls said nothing about their talk, and rather switched the conversation to when they are going to reach the military base to find out what happened then then they can get the hell out of here.

"So, we can kind of deduce that whatever hit this dome was man made." said John taking a bit out of the cooked rabbit.

"What do you mean." asked Levy.

"Remember when we watched that video the man said there was an outbreak in the lab Now, we can put two and two together and say that it wasn't a thing made by N.R.G, it was manmade..." said John giving his theory.

Everyone was spooked by this, why would humans ever want to make something like that??

They didn't want to go to sleep tonight but John said they have to get some rest; they didn't set up the tents this time and just used sleeping bags they placed next to the fire. John was sitting next to fire and was looking up into sky seeing the artificial stars on the dome roof.

"What is going on in this place" asked John. He then noticed that Levy was very restless as she kept tossing and turning in her sleep, she was also shivering, an indication that she was cold. He stood up and placed his blanket on her, she stopped being cold.

"You are very special Levy, in this cruel world of ours you still seem to find hope and get frightened by things that go bump in the night." said the teen softly as he leaned forward and kissed her forehead.

He didn't say anything afterword's and turned the force field on and went to bed. Little did he know that Levy heard everything he said, she put her fingers on the place where John kissed her and went to bed with a smile on her face.

The next day they carried on towards the military base and finally arrived at the base.

"Finally, we reached it" said Devon as he slouched over.

John didn't say anything except use his claws to rip the door open. The team went inside and saw that it was quite horrible. Blood stains and bits and pieces of chasseurs with people laid everywhere.

"Geez what the actual hell" asked Thorin as her visor shined over the corpses. That's when they saw something move against the wall, it was a Chasser but it looked strange, it was the standard military robot but its left arm was in pieces and was walking with a limp towards them.

"Chasser pilot please tell us what happened here?" asked John.

The robot didn't say anything and kept taking steps towards them, suddenly it lunged at John, pushing him through the wall back outside. When they were outside, they finally saw that the Chasser had only half a head and one big mouth, it looked very similar to what those human creatures looked like!

"JOHN!" shouted Levy with worry.

"I'll be fine now GO! Get to the lab and find out what happened.��� shouted John.

John used one of his thrusters and punched the robot monster off of him. The team knew he would be fine so they left him and explored the base.

"All right you piece of trash let's do this" said John while taking out his giant scissors.

The robot didn't register John's warning and lunged towards him again. John dodged the lunge and used his claws to cut off the arm. When the robot stood up his arm was slowly regenerating back.

"Oh hell no." spat John out as he flew forward and placed the scissors around the robot's waist and with a big push cut the robot clean in half! The top of the robot fell onto the floor and the bottom half just stood there. John not taking chances brought his foot up and stomped on the robot's head.

"Now stay down" he said while putting the scissors back onto his back. That's when he heard the team on the coms.

"Hey john you need to come see this..." said Thorin softly.

"Right on my way" replied John

He turned back around and sprinted into the hangar, not noticing that just where the fallen robot was a clawed hand pick up the robot and ate its upper half while also giving an eerie chuckle...
