Beau is sleeping on the floor of a bar. his clothes is stained in blood. his face and hands are full of bruises and small cuts. his face is covered on blood.
Beau stands up as he struggles with breathing. he tries to stand up as he fails. Self-Bet helps him to stand up. Beau looks around and his eyes are concentrated on Alpha Purple Warrior talking with Don-Savage, and with Dog-Boy.
Beau asks about what happened last night. Leah tells him to forget about it. she helps him to sit down. with a towel she cleans his face and then she starts to take care of his wounds. Beau blushes as he thinks about her touching his face.
Hero is walking forward with the Good Twin and Peace Inn at her side. Hero Teacher is feeling a bit conflicted with the event (he didn't know until the event started, but he hasn't been able to log out of the game and he received a message informing him that he won't be able to leave the game until the event is over.)
Peace Inn is interested in continuing what she left unfinished with the idiot of Hero Teacher. she is already thinking about spending a few hours with him once the event is over. he may not like her at all, but the moment of intimacy they had can't be erased from her skin nor her memory.
Good Twin is happy because two hours ago they had a report in form of an announcement allowing them to see the names of all the people who died during the event and he was almost screaming with joy when he didn't found the username of his sister.
Beau takes a beer out of his inventory. he was about to drink it when he is stop by Leah who kisses him. Beau blushes as he is about to speak, but he is shut up by the caresses of his girlfriend. she kisses him on the lips. he feels a strange special feeling inside of his body. he thought 'is this what they call butterflies on the stomach.'
Leah seems to be sad. he wants to ask her if there is something bothering her. the only reason why he doesn't ask is simple. he is afraid that he is the reason why she isn't smiling. he is afraid of not been good enough for her and that maybe she is hiding her true feelings. he is afraid of just been a rock on her road.
"we need to keep moving. we all had slept enough. is time to move to the next location."
said Alpha Purple Warrior loud enough for everyone to hear.
"and where are we meant to be? don't play with me. you can eat all your bullshit of moving like some marine team when only few of us are strong or have the power to protect others. there are some of us that aren't strong enough... forget about protecting others, we can't even protect ourselves."
said Dog-Boy loudly almost yielding feeling the pressure of been born weak.
it is easy to speak for yourself or to say some nice motivational words, but that isn't going to shield the unlucky or the weak from their reality nor those words can save souls.
Hero Teacher speaks taking the lead. he tells to everyone that the time and the place isn't one to fight nor to let their guard down. he explains to them that it is time to act and move as a whole and not as individuals. Hero Teacher looks on the eyes at everyone as he repeats the word "pathetic."
Peace Inn stands behind him as she continues what Hero Teacher was trying to say. she shows how disappointed she was of their ineptitude. Peace Inn keeps talking until they all were quiet like little mouses listening to the boss.
Beau raises his left hand. Peace Inn looks at him with some evident anger. Beau tries to talk about certain important matters like the death of one of their biggest enemies (of course he was talking about Mad-M who went out with a brutal death.)
"the point of my pre-husband is that everything is important to know if we are walking on sand, lava or a mined area. every little piece of evidence is primordial before any action. one example can be how Re-Incarnate Skull Breakers are no longer a problem to us and how the other two surviving guilds are battling to come to a conclusion of which action take after the events of last night."
said Leah with a clear and calm tone of voice.
everyone took a minute of silence as their brains were trying to process that piece of information. then after each of them came to a conclusion, then they started to whisper to each other about their worries and the actions they consider important.
living as a mortal with freewill isn't easy. freewill is a gift that at times feels like a conflicted misstep of society, as been free to act as you wish doesn't meant to be able to act or think appropriately of the scene that is given to you.
everyone starts to talk at the same time as everyone wants to put on the table their opinions. sadly mortals are too selfish that they only care about bee listened, but not about listening to the opinion of the others. of course there are exceptions like Good Twin who is unique.
"everyone shut the fuck up. we are fucking humans, not animals. what kind of fucking loser argues in the middle of a battlefield showing their back to the enemy so as not to lose the argument."
yields Hero Teacher feeling tired of everyone's bullshit.
everyone was confused and scare to see that the most easy to talk and friendly guy who seems more like the nice guy on a sitcom than the leader of a disaster feature, is now here showing who is boss.
there is a huge explosion that freeze everyone who was present on the bar. Beau walks to the front door. he thinks before opening the door. he opens the door and he gets out slowly. he looks at a platoon of zombie soldiers.
Beau goes back inside and he looks at everyone with an evident fear. he struggles to speak as he was too scare for what he saw. one thing is a zombie and another thing is a zombie holding a gun.
"we are done. we are so dead if we don't run far away from here."
said Beau as his voice reflected his fear.
everyone took their things and some liquor bottles. they all left the bar using the backdoor. they all were walking on a speed in between walking and running.
on the opposite side of the city; Master of Lies is walking in front of his group. they all are walking on a line as they all are entering inside of a school.
Master of Lies believed that a school was the perfect place to hide and to use as a base to keep themselves save. but little did he knew that this was a wrong choice to make.
Joaquin was walking behind Master of Lies. Chicken Wrath was behind him making sure that his friend isn't going to make a stupid mistake like shoot at Master of Lies from behind by 'accident.' Chicken Wrath is fearing that his friend may lose his sanity or may lose his conscious.
on the middle where Organic Florist who was drinking liquor, followed by Karl and Psychotic Twin whom were feeling awkward by been walking together.
Karl felt regret for the things that he did and said on the past to his comrade. Psychotic Twin is still angry at him, but at the same time she feels joy to know that he is better now, to know that he is more healthy now than last night. she hated the idea of him dying for her fault, but she didn't care about the idea of him dying by her hand.
finally the last ones on the line are Doctor Middle Finger & Bigotes. Doctor Middle Finger was affected for the lose of his colleague. he was so affected that he seemed to be pale with red eyes. his lips are dry and his eyes are unfocused. Doctor Middle Finger was like a living ghost. he was so affected by the true nature of this game.
Bigotes was drinking a small can of beer. for his appearance alone you can tell that he has been drinking since last night and that he haven't slept at all. some drink for joy and others drink for love, there are some that drink to forget. Bigotes was drinking because that was the only way he knew to honor the dead.
Master of Lies was walking with a cigar on his mouth. he looks back at the members of the group. he looks at some new faces and then he looks at some old faces, that seem to be swallow by a dark cloud. he didn't ask questions, who does when this world is so fucking twisted it is scary?
"it is okay guys, it is okay if you don't feel good. but remember we all are a big group so if one of us isn't on the game, if one soul isn't with his head on the present we all will suffer the consequences of their mistakes. so I want you all awaken and ready for what is left of this damn annoying event."
comments Master of Lies directing his words towards the guys on the end of the line.
once they all are inside of the school they realized that the school wasn't as empty as they hope it would be. Master of Lies looks outside and he directs his eyes to a gardener zombie holding some dangerous tools.
"does anyone wants to go to the bathroom? because now is the time. I mean you are going to need to hold it for some time with all the zombies coming on our direction."
said Master of Lies with a stupid smile.
Joaquin was about to murder that idiot if wasn't for Chicken Wrath and Choco who are holding him. Joaquin curses in Spanish and English as he liberates his rage on some really over elaborate insults.
everyone has a weapon out already. everyone is ready for whatever is to come. last night they didn't had a brutal fight for no reason.
in the school are some teacher zombies and some student zombies. some are your regular zombie, but there are some that are the type of zombies that are somehow able to use a weapon because that is Video Game or Movie logic for you.
Bigotes blows the brains off of a zombie with a giant mallet that he is holding. Doctor Middle Finger uses a bat to fight against some student zombies that are running on the hallway. Doctor Middle Finger is screams with rage after every hit.
"everyone, remember that we can't divide this group. if one of us leaves then he will be by himself against one or even twenty zombies. we all fight together or we all fall together."
yields Joaquin trying to motivate the group.
the school is a nest of zombies and the fight is just getting started as the zombies one by one are staring to notice them and there are some walking and there are some running in search of a meal.
Master of Lies takes two pistols out of his inventory as he walks slowly and every step he shoots at a new zombie coming on his way. with one bullet he puts down a zombie, after a minute he is loading his pistols as he looks calmly at a herd of zombies coming on their way.
Joaquin walks in front shooting at the zombies with a shotgun. once he runs out of bullets he throws the shotgun on the floor. he takes an ax out of his inventory and he runs forward butchering the zombies that are on his way.
on the southwest side of the city is Cake Eater outside of a store with 2nd-Hand Cigar. Cake Eater is eating a vanilla flavor yogurt. the two friends are awkwardly standing in there looking at the sky.
"most of our members are weak. they are not going to make it. sooner or later we are going to need to make a hard choice like leaving some of them behind."
said 2nd-Hand Cigar trying to be honest.
Cake Eater hits the wall so hard that it makes a strange sound, that was the sound of his bones breaking. he looks at his left hand bleeding a lot and he holds the pain. he knows that his friend didn't meant to disrespect the honor of those who died for the guild. he knows that his friend is right, but he wants to believe that they all can make it.
"don't ever say that again in front of me. we all are going to win the game. we are going to win as an united force, in the same way that a god was able to hold the whole planet on his shoulders, I will hold the guild on mine."
said Cake Eater with teary eyes.
on the roof of a nearby building is Oblivious Soul-Rage looking at Cake Eater with some binoculars. Quick Kill-Man is at his side looking at the same prey.
