Accepting Help.

Seeing them all nod he turned to Randy and said:

"Randy you are staying here, tomorrow we need you, with Mad Dog, to choose some strong and trusted man, it would be better if they were blood power users even before joining us, because those won't freeze or cowre in fear in their first fight, and get them ready so when we come to take them they would be ready, ok?"

Randy and Mad Dog both nodded at Dan's words, who after seeing that smiled and said while putting a bag on the table:

"That's all for now, here these are some fruits for you to enjoy, we will be leaving, as always if we meet any danger Robin will teleport here to tell you about it and get your help, he will also be teleporting each few hours to take a look at all of you and make sure that nothing wrong will happen."

After that they talked for a little bit more before he and Robin finally returned.

The next morning, when Dan and the others woke up, they washed and got ready and talked about what Dan and the others on Barbarossa decided before Alexander came and took them to the village's Chief house where they had breakfast.

While they were having breakfast, the Village Chief looked at Dan and said in English so all those who were with him could understand him:

"So Dan, did you decide what you're going to do? Are you staying?"

He's words made everyone there stop what they were doing and look at Dan, even Alexander and his son who didnt understand English seemed as if they knew what the old man asked.

Dan took one last sip of his drink before saying:

"We decided to stay for the first night and see what will happen, but..." Stopping here Dan looked at the old man for a few seconds before saying:

"I was wondering if we can bring some of our friends here to help?"

"Friends?" The old man said in Russian, it was apparent that he wanted his son to hear what they were going to talk about so he can get his opinion.

"Yes, you see we actually came here in a ship, and some of us are still on it, and after hearing what you said I think that the more helpers we have at night the better, so I was wondering if we can bring some of them here to help." Dan also talked in Russian so the others could understand.

The village Chief and the other two stayed silent when Dan finished his words, Dan also didn't rush them as he just set there waiting for their answer.

After a while of silence the old man finally said:

"We will need a bit of time to think about it."

Hearing that Dan nodded and said:

"I understand that but it would be better if you give us the answer fast, after all the ship is quite a distance from here and we don't have a lot of time before the sun sets."

Soon after that Dan and the others didn't stay anymore and left the old man and others alone to think and decide about his proposal.

"Grandpa you aren't really thinking about accepting that, right?" Alexander's son said as soon as Dan and his group of four left.

Seeing that neither his dad not grandpa said anything he added while standing up:

"They appeared out of noweger, and they are strong, having more of them here can be dangerous, you should really think this through."

The old man looked at the youth and said with a loving smile on his face:

"You think me and your dad don't know that? We do, it's just that we are in a tough spot right now, we might not even be able to last a few more night, the monsters are getting stronger, we are losing more and more fighter each night, and the ones we have now are getting tired, they see no hope on sight, each night is the same, we need help and unfortunately the City won't give it to us, at least not before we die, so tell me son, would you rather wait for us to die?"

The youth didn't know what to say, he understood what his grandpa said, after all he was one of the soldiers fighting the insects out there when the sun sets, he saw friends die in fornt if him and was always wondering if his turn was coming, it's just that he didn't think about that when his father and grandpa seemed as if they were really going to accept what Dan said, so he tried to make them change their minds.

Seeing his son finally fall into silence, Alexander turned to the old man and said:

"So should I go and tell him to bring the people he talked about? He was right, we don't really have a lot of time just a few hours thats all."

The old man nodded in silence without saying anything.

Alexander stood and left after seeing that.

Dan was in his room, he had just set on a chair when he heard a knock on the door.

Getting up he opened the door and found Alexander, he moved away asking him to enter, before he asked him after he saw him just stand there:

"So what did you choose?" He actually already guessed that they had accepted what he proposed when he saw Alexander there so soon.

"We think that it would be great to have your friends here with us?" Alexander said then he added:

"But don't you think that you should have told us about this sooner? The sun is setting soon, and you won't have enough time to even reach the shore let alone coming back."

Dan just smiled before saying:

"Don't worry, we will be here before the sun sets." After that he turned to Nero and the others and said:

"Ok let's move, we don't have a lot of time."

The others all nodded and got ready, actually they were already ready they didn't have a lot of things to prepare in the first place, except Dan asking for around forty fruits to take with him from Alexander, who gave it to him as fruits weren't really that rare or precious in the village, even though he did find it a little bit weird.

They soon left the village moving towards Barbarossa, of course they weren't going to walk there, they were just going to move a bit away from the village before teleporting away with Robin.

After they moved for half an hour or so Dan looked to Nero who nodded, what meant was that they was no one following them

Dan sighed in relief and said to Robin:

"Ok let's teleport."

Robin just nodded before putting his hand on Dan's shoulder and than both of them teleported away.

Soon after that he returned and did the same think with Nero, and finally he took Katherine and teleported away.

When they appeared again, Katherine found herself in Dan's room along with the othe two.

Dan nodded to her and Robin before leaving the room with the others following behind him.

Because of Nero they soon found Randy who was with Mad Dog and Allan, Randy soon saw them and said while smiling towards Dan:

"You sure are early."

Dan just smiled and asked:

"How did the things in your side go?"

"I was just going with Mad Dog to the dinning room to find the people we already chose in order to tell them about all of this." Randy said.

"How many did you chose?" Dan asked.

The number of people was 45, of which 8 were blood power users before joining the team, Dan was wondering how many were going with them.

"There are going to be 5 blood power users, including Mad Dog and Brandon." Brandon was the middle aged man who's always with Mad Dog.

"I think that will be enough, with Nero, me, Robin and Katherine, we will be nine, I think that will be enough to deal with the insects." Dan said after thinking for a while.

"Ok than, let's go and tell them about this." Said Randy.

They then went to the dinning room where everyone was there getting ready for breakfast, they actually would have had breakfast way before that if they weren't waiting for Randy and Mad Dog who took longer then usual to come.

The dinning room was full of noise before they entered, but as soon as they did it turned as silence as it could got while everyone there was looking at Dan and the ones who left with him to the land.

They were awaiting their return ever since they left, waiting for them to bring them the good news.

So seeing them all there they put all their attention on them, wanting to find any clues about what happened to them and what they found.

Noticing that Dan smiled and said:

"Don't worry everyone, we talk about everything we went through later, right now just have you breakfast, and here, give one to everyone."

He said the last part while handing the fruits he got from Alexander to one of the kitchen workers.

After that he set in his usual seat while waiting for everyone to finish their breakfast, except that other than the fruits not many people really cared about the food. They just kept on sneaking glances at Dan and his group.

Feeling that Dan just smiled, he waited till those who were really eating stopped 'Allan was one of them' Before saying:

"Ok, as everyone knows we left to take a look at the area around us to see the dangers around here and if there are any humans, and fortunately we found a village yesterday, but they won't accept us just like that, yet, they are suffering from a problem with insects and need some help, if we do help them we can befriend them and at the very least know how the area around here works.

"That's why we decided to help them, the four of us who left yesterday and six others will go and help them tonight and see how it goes from there, and don't worry, if nothing bad happens, all of you will be leaving the ship soon." Dan said six others and not five because he had someone in mind he wanted to take with them.

After he finished talking people there showed different expressions, some seemed eager some were excited and others worried.

Dan turned his head to Randy who nodded, stood up and said:

"Richered, Tony, Jordan, Brandon and Mad Dog, all of you are strong blood power users who have already taken part in a big fight, so you will go with them."

Richered was the big blood power user who in Area 02 had the ability to turn his body to diamond, Tony was a blood power user who chose to join them in their journey, Jordan was a black man who also put his trust in Dan and his group.

After that they started getting ready while Dan left to find the person he wanted to take with them.

That person was none other than Thomas, the man with the ability of a creator.
