Damn, so mysterious. What is he? A spy?

"We need to go to the Roxan Street," Matt whispered as he tried to take deep breaths.

"R-R-Roxan Street. Why?" Ashton asked as he looked everywhere to find a way.

"Sam's shop is there. We will be safe there for now. We need to hurry, Ash." Matt whispered.

"Alright. Stay behind me, and follow me closely." Ashton nodded as he stood up.

He frowned when he saw Matt sweating, "What happened to you? Did you get hurt somewhere? Why the hell are you sweating this much?" And started checking Matt's body everywhere, not caring about other things.

"It's nothing, Ash! We need to hurry." Matt hissed when he saw Ashton checking him up instead of running.

Ashton gritted his teeth, hugged Matt tightly, and ran towards the next street.

Roxan Street was just five minutes away from them. They needed to cross two roads and at the corner of the road was Sam's shop.

Ashton ran and turned his one hand into a sharp long blade and cut the dead humans who were getting in the way.

There weren't many but still, they were enough to give him trouble.

"GARRRRRRR." A dead human grawed as all the other dead turned towards him and then saw him carrying Matt.

There were 8 of them. They all ran towards them. Their speed was slow but faster than the last time he saw other dead humans.

He ran in between cars, making sure to keep his distance away from them.

All the 8 dead humans were singled out. There were just too many cars on the road. It was like a damn maze. Even if they wanted to get together to overpower him, they couldn't.

Ashton crossed the first road. And now behind him were more than 20 deadwalkers who were chasing them relentlessly.

"Take these and crush them." Matt huffed as he gave 52 green cards to Ashton. There were 18 Strength cards, 15 Endurance cards, 14 Intelligence cards, and 5 Agility cards. Other than that, there were 15 more cards but Matt didn't give them, as they were unknown to him.

Ashton didn't look at the cards and crush them directly. Again, he felt that comfortable aura all over but then he felt an itch all over his body. It made his whole body shiver. His head became dizzy.

"Woah. Woah. Woah. Look where you are going, Ash." Matt whispery yelled as he saw Ashton nearly hitting the car.

Ashton slapped himself harshly

 to make his mind clearer, while Matt looked at him in worry.

Ashton felt his mind getting clear after he slapped himself. Then he felt his body becoming stronger and lighter, so much so that he could now easily run even after carrying Matt.

Ashton didn't give a damn about the dead bodies which were running behind him as he got to Roxan Street

, put Matt down, and hurriedly spoke, "Stay here. I'll be back after dealing with those darn awakens."

Matt in reply, just nodded his head. He also thought the same. They couldn't let those awakens come anywhere near Sam's shop.

Ashton rubbed Matt's hair and ran towards the awakened. Now there were nearly 20 of them. But he didn't care.

He got to the nearest one and hacked its head off of his body. His hand was now sharper than any blade. Then he pierced the hacked head. Crushed its brain.

One by one, he killed all of them. Not letting them group up. Keeping his distance. Using the guerrilla tactic, and then he brought back twenty cards to Matt.

Matt just laughed. These were free cards. Then they both made their way towards Sam's shop.

Sam's shop was on the corner of the road. But was very famous, especially their coffee. It was addicting.

Ashton checked everywhere first. When saw no one, he slowly entered the shop. A clink sounded when they opened the door.

Then they saw Sam hiding in the corner with a gun in his hand.

"Fuck! You scared the shit out of me. Get in!! Close the door!!! Hurry!!!!" Sam spoke as he went inside.

Speechlessly, Matt and Ashton just nodded their heads as they closed the door, and followed behind him.

Sam entered the office, ignored everything, and directly went towards the deer head which was pinned on the wall.

Spun it around and the shelf which was containing books opened. Stairs were going leading downwards and without saying anything he started walking.

While Matt and Ashton just looked at him from behind dumbstruck.

What was he? A spy?

They just shook their heads and followed him like good kids.

Wait. Matt was a man. So yup. Like a good man and a kid.

And then they entered a room. There were many things in the room.

Many illegal things.

From guns to hand grenades.

Lots of them. Lots and lots of them.

"Don't ask why I have these here. You just need to thank god that I have these here. Anyway..." Sam spoke, and then he paused.

Of course, he paused.

Sam speechlessly looked at the two morons in front of him.

Ashton had a knife in his left hand and a Spiked brass knuckle in his right hand. Looking pretty badass, but with his smug face. He looked like an idiot.

Not to say Matt was carrying a sword that was as big as him.

"What are you both? I know Ashton is a moron, but I didn't expect the same thing from you, Matt. I am disappointed." Sam sighed as he rubbed his head.

"Shut the fuck up. Who are you calling a moron, huh? Even Matt hasn't called me more than a fool yet. So, you have no right to call me a moron." Ashton yelled as he declared Matty's authority over him.
