Return to the Convoy

Crynn POV

"So, I've set the GPS to the convoy's location," I crossed by legs as I sat down on the fluffy chair and stretched out in a comfortable yawn, I'm getting sleepy. "So, does anyone know what a ripperdoc is?" I asked and sank back into the confines of the soft cushion, I could sleep any second now, future chairs are so damn good.

"Ripperdoc? They are basically doctors who treats or repairs people's cybernetics. You want to attach a metal arm, go see a ripperdoctor. Want some new eyes, got to the ripperdoctor. Both of your mechanical legs blown off, go to the ripperdoctor. Every single cybernetical problem is handled by a ripperdoctor," Jill answered perfectly.

"Are ordinary doctors out of practice nowadays?" Because from what I see, this world is dominated by cybernetics so maybe conventional practitioners of medicine will have a hard time of finding any sort of jobs. "From what I read, seems like it. Fever is easily handled in this era and vaccines of all types of diseases is available so ordinary doctors are non-existent," I'm correct in the assumption.

"So what is this Resident Evil world, I only know that it's a popular movie series about zombies?" I'm a man thirsty of knowledge like any other in the world and I don't particularly enjoy zombies. I tried watching the whole of World War Z but eh... Let's just leave it at, I tried. I don't know, just not an apocalypse genre I enjoy.

"The movie and the game have a very significant difference," Calian answered. Right he did mention that there is a game. Perhaps it's a movie adaptation from the game or vice versa. "Why don't I let Jill explain herself what her world is like and I'll explain the difference between the game and the movie," Calian looked at Jill as she said, "Why not."

"So apparently according to Calian, my world, the game version is centered around biological weapons, monsters as the product of it, the heroes that stop it and the villain that causes it. To put it simply, it's not a very nice world, there's a lot of dangers, a lot of viruses and a lot of bad guys, it's a wonder how the world hasn't ended," okay, that explains it.

"Yup, all Jill said except the movie world is a true apocalyptic world. In the game world, a city called Raccoon City is the center of a biological epidemic which is thankfully handled via a missile. However the movie version of the city is a little unlucky, the biological epidemic spread out and eventually the world is taken over by the virus, people become zombies, some mutate into much more powerful monsters."

"The world ended but don't worry, at the end of the movie series, the main character got the vaccine and the world is eventually rid of the virus. The end," and that's it? I guess that's all I'm getting today. I grabbed a nearby water bottle and drank some of it down, a bit dehydrated by the fighting even if I did not get much action.

I felt the motion of the aerodyne stopped, have we arrived, that's a bit fast. "Looks like we're here," Ariane stood up and leaned against the table with her hand crossed. Everything passed as usual with an extra bit sense of accomplishment from the ritual which is dazzling. The aircraft is fully on the ground as we got off in style like we usually do, even though we've only did it like 4 times or so.

Obviously, from the car parked next to convoy, we can see that V got here first. Not a surprise considering I toned down the aerodyne's speed by quite the amount, way below its max speed of 500 mph which is about the maximum speed of a propeller plane, almost 4 times faster than a helicopter.

My hawk-like eyes spy from the distant which is not far at all, it's very near, I see V hugging another cute girl with green-purple colored hair which somehow actually compliments her look, I'm not a big fan for dyed hair but in her case, I'd give a thumbs up. They seem to be chatting for a sec as they walked together holding hands to one of the big caravans.

We coolly strolled into the convoy like we own the place and sat down on the four chairs still there facing Panam Palmer, the Aldecaldos leader on the other side of the table, hopefully I remember it correct, her name's that right, her gang is also that? Should be correct. "Welcome back, how's killing scavengers with V?" She began lightly and her voice is much more toned down.

"You should've seen this two snipe," Aria spoke with a grin, I didn't see much of them sniping but i know they snipe good. "I'm sure V can snipe better," she looked up and back to the caravan where V and the girl walked into as she looked at us. "V told me you did some 'inexplicable' things to her," what? That sounds like something a father would say to his daughter's boyfriend.

"Pardon?" Calian was obviously unprepared, his expressions revealed that. "Right after V came back, she elatedly told me that she is hopefully cured, that she is back being the girl she is, yada yada yada. She said you guys treated her, something sounding very suspiciously smelling a whole bunch like fraud and telephone scams."

Is she seriously doubting us, what a joke. Jill furrowed her brows, Calian narrowed his eyes and Aria look became cold, why do I even want to join in, I'll happily sit in the sidelines. "Oh really? Miss V said she'll get a ripperdoc to check her, and if its true, her lifespan is back, she'll have to accept the job, or is that something disinclining to hear?"

Now the atmosphere turned to minus degrees Celsius, is it just me or is my all temperature magical clothing not working.
