CHAPTER VI: Daniel's misfortune

The metal door is banged and everyone on the crew grabs their riffle and runs straight to his hiding spot, Gabe finds a hiding spot too, This time, they hear many footsteps running down the stairs, they are now a hundred percent sure that it was the alien soldiers. The footsteps all finally reach at the trapdoor and stop. The soldiers start talking as the crew inside the bunker clock their guns ready to shoot the life out of those aliens. The trapdoor is burst open and an alien soldier jumps down and starts shooting around. The crew all opens fire on the soldier and the fire continues escalating until the soldier starts weakening with the increase of bullets, the alien starts to kneel but while also shooting around. The crew is also still shooting until the soldier eventually lies down dead in its blood. After some seconds, the crew stops shooting at the dead body of the soldier. And after like five seconds, an advanced object is thrown inside, the crew is confused and are starting to aim at it because it didn't look like a bomb, but suddenly...FLASH... very strong light is released by that object which blinds them all for an instant. It was a light bomb. But in that instant, they all start shooting around while also shouting in pain of their eyes. Immediately, all the remaining soldiers jump down into the bunker and they split up to find the five of the crew and they are all disarmed, and in the hands of alien soldiers.

After a while, the crew was outnumbered and disarmed, alien soldiers held them at gunpoint and took them out of the bunker. They took the stairs up to the smashed metal door. Not one person in the crew could even think of defending himself or attacking a soldier, that would be a death wish and they certainly di not want to die. When they have reached outside, they see a drone. They immediately know that they are meant for something else and not death. ''You!'' one of the soldiers says while pointing at Gabe. They all turn around and Gabe realizes it is him they are calling. He approaches the soldier. ''Where are the others?'' asked the soldier, ''what? what do you mean others, you got us all!'' claimed Gabe. ''No, I mean the ones you were with before you joined these ones'' said the alien soldier. ''What are you talking about, these are the only people I was with'', ''STOP!'' shouted the alien soldier ordering all of them ''KNEEL!'' the crew all does so. ''What is your name?'' the soldier asked, ''look, I don't know what you are talking about...'' the soldier punches him straight to the nose making him bleed and making his nose break and he falls down. The soldier pulls out a pistol and points it at his head. ''What is your name?'' he asks in a very serious tone, ''it's Gabe, Gabe is his name! Please don't shoot him'' said Nate pleadingly, ''ohhh, well then Gabe, the last question is, where are the rest? Answer me before I shoot you in that human head!'' claimed the alien soldier, ''Gabe, just say it, they will kill you if you don't'' said Yoshida. ''They...-cough-...they are in a bunker under thee city plaza. They have no weapons-cough-'' said Gabe weakly. ''That wasn't hard was it?'' said the soldier and he immediately ordered some of them to go to that location. He communicated with them in an alien language but the crew could understand that the soldier meant that they go look for those people.

''Now the rest, get into that drone'' the soldier said while the sent ones leave and the drone opens, and they stand up and walk in. ''Gabe won't make it Nate!'' whispered Daniel as they walked to the drone. ''He will, it was just a punch'' said Nate, ''I don't mean the punch, I mean he will get shot anytime he doesn't do whatever that soldier says you know!?'' said Daniel, ''I can assure you that he knows he can not ditch that alien soldier'' Nate whispered back. ''I can hear you two speaking, humans!'' the alien soldier shouted and it scared the hell out of Daniel and Nate. The sent soldiers meanwhile have reached the plaza and they break the doors, they split up and start searching for a trapdoor or a basement that may lead to an underground bunker. The plaza is very messed up and has even some bullet holes, the soldiers continue looking and nothing is there that is suspected to lead underground. They meet again after splitting up and then they decide and agree to look for a basement. They do so and they all split up again. They can't find anything for a long time. Until one notices something suspicious. It is a huge, empty carp board. The soldier moves it aside and there is a small door behind it. The soldier contacts the rest and they all come there. They burst open the small door and go through it. It is a little room with boxes. "It has to be here, start looking!'' one soldier commands. They start looking everywhere and lifting up all the boxes to look for a trapdoor, ''found it!'' one of the soldiers shouts. ''Very well'' said the leader soldier. They all look at the trapdoor they had found. ''That human may have lied to us, we cannot just enter that is a serious risk. So we are going to have to use the same trick we used with those ones, now you,-pointing at one of the soldiers-GO!'' ordered the leader soldier. The chosen one immediately takes the order and jumps on the trapdoor and due to the soldier's strength, it immediately breaks and he finds himself down in the bunker. The soldier points its gun around and cannot see anything. The soldier tells others to come down, and they do so. Suddenly, all of the people who were hiding come out with swords and knives. The soldiers all look at each other, they can not kill them since they need them as slaves, so they do the same trick they did on Daniel's crew. One soldier grabs a light bomb and throws it upwards, this immediately releases the strong light while it is still in the air.

All the people who had swords are blinded by the light and forget everything about wanting to fight since that light brought too much pain in their eyes. The soldiers take advantage of this moment and disarm them. After like thirty seconds, they start seeing again, but they find themselves at gunpoint. They put their hands in the air and can do nothing except surrendering and do as the soldiers tell them to do. ''How did they find us?'' one member called Matt asked himself while they were being escorted out of the bunker. ''You never know Matt'' answered one of them. They were brought out of the small room and then the plaza, they walked for some minutes until they reached the drone. Meanwhile, Yoshida was stitching up Gabe's broken and bleeding nose. The other crew was finally reached the drone and was taken in. ''Gabe?!'' said Matt with a really surprised face. ''Are you the one that ratted us out?'' asked Matt now angrily. ''Shut up human'' shouted the leader soldier, ''now we will be taking you where you absolutely belong!'' the leader soldier said with a thrilled voice as the drone began to fly. After some minutes of flying, the crew began to whisper at each other again. ''Where do you think they are taking us?'' whispered Craig, ''I don't know, maybe to a pit where they are going to kill us and throw us in'' said Nate. ''No, they are not going to kill us, they would have done it back there. They have something else in mind. But whatever it is, they must be wanting to us, but I can't quite think of something we would help them with, they already have everything they need!''. ''Last warning humans, speak again and I will make you pay!'' shouted the leader soldier through a speaker because they were in separate rooms. Which meant that the captured humans were in their own small room in the drone and the alien soldiers were in the pilot luxurious side of the drone.

Some minutes later from when they were silenced, the drone started to slow down and they could feel it was about to land, the electric door connecting the two sides if the drone suddenly opens and a soldier holding many chained objects which looked like handcuffs but were electric. ''You are all going to be wearing these'' said the soldier while three more entered and they started cuffing the humans. The drone landed as the soldiers were handcuffing the last ones. ''Don't anyone of you dare to do anything stupid. I know human instinct can be sketchy sometimes'' said one of the soldiers who was handcuffing them as the drone was opening up. They all stood up and were aligned. They moved out of the drone in a line and the drone had landed in front of a large building. The soldiers led them into the building. They really looked like the slave pictures from the early centuries. ''Well well well, the first found humans!'' said commander Aurablin coming out of nowhere. ''Who is that?'' Gabe asked Yoshida in whispers as Yoshida was in front of him, ''do you mean, what is that?'' said Yoshida and Gabe smiled-laughed. ''Take them to their shelters, as their fate will be falling upon them tomorrow!'' said the commander and immediately, the soldier leads them to a big door and then a space full of jail cells, each one is put in one of them.

We travel across the world to Africa, to Cephas' territory. ''We have made many discoveries in this continent. It is really turning out to be very interesting. We have found many beasts in the forest of these areas compared to the one in the northern Europe(Russia) forests. And according to human books, there is one particular beast that was used especially in the deserts called a camel'' said an alien which looked like it was Cephas' assistant commander. ''Can you bring one? I would love to use it and circle around in that African desert'' said commander Cephas. ''It is actually called the Sahara desert according to human books...'', ''whatever Goblin, just bring the goddamn camel!'' Cephas rudely interrupted his assistant, Goblin. ''But, the Sahara desert is a little bit far from here, after all, we are in the central-east of Africa'' said Goblin. ''We will just use a drone that will drop me off in the desert'' said Cephas, ''you will need protection though'' added Goblin, ''I will need proximate protection, and non visible, that would be a perfect trap for any human who will want to ambush me will get caught and we will have the slaves we will bring here. Now, get the drone well prepared, I will be heading to the desert'' said Cephas as he went to his bedroom, ''yes commander'' Goblin answered while starting to walk to the drone parking. After some minutes, Cephas came out prepared, he went outside and found fifty soldiers in disguise as Tuaregs waiting for him. ''What are they wearing?'' asked Cephas, ''it is a disguise, they look like the rebels in that desert, this will help you fight them. But it will be difficult for them to hide'' said Goblin. ''I don't want to fight them, I want to capture them'' claimed Cephas, ''these rebels will not let go without a fight, and they are many and scattered, it will be really difficult to apprehend them'' said Goblin in a warning voice. ''Then why not have some fun in a manslaughter, I am going to give them a bloody war if they like and no one will ever again dare to stand in my way!'' claimed Cephas calmly. ''If you say so'' said Goblin as he shrugged.

Cephas entered his drone and the other fifty disguised soldiers entered the other drone. Goblin introduced a new drone technology that makes the drone invisible. He applies it to the drones and they become invisible. After some minutes of preparation, the two drones takeoff to the Sahara desert. The drones are completely invisible and are built in such a way that does not disturb the nearby surroundings. This will help the two drones land unnoticed. After three hours, the drones have finally reached the Sahara desert. The drones land and Cephas gets out finding his Camel ready. The fifty disguised soldiers scatter around for the 'proximate' protection commander Cephas wanted. Cephas calmly climbs his camel and it starts moving. After some time, Cephas is far away from his drone. Then we are shown two masked rebels with horses moving very fast towards Cephas' camel, and they are armed. Cephas immediately notices this and pulls out his gun. The rebels are holding machine guns and they start firing immediately at the camel and Cephas. The camel is badly shot and it falls down with Cephas, the rebels continue shooting continuously. Cephas also start shooting at them too and he runs and throws himself in a nearby well of water. He swims up and contacts everyone. ''Razor do you copy, kill everyone, bloody war expected. Do it now!'' commanded Cephas. The two rebels meanwhile, horse their way to the well. When they reach, they throw a grenade in it but Cephas catches it mid air and throws it back upwards and it goes so far up and blows up there. The rebels point their guns in the well and start shooting. Cephas sinks himself in the bottom of the well where bullets reach with no power. Suddenly, both rebels are shot in the head simultaneously and both fall in the well. Cephas swims back to the top and angrily decapitates both the rebels and throws their heads outside of the well. Cephas grabs both their machine guns and tries to climb up.

We are shown many rebels also scattered nearby. They have seen those heads being thrown out of the well and they look pissed. One of them hiding in a jacked truck grabs a bomb thrower and waits for the perfect moment. Meanwhile, Cephas is trying to climb out of the well and when he reaches at the top, he pokes his head out and sees the rebel holding the bomb thrower and has pulled the trigger, Cephas ducks away by free falling back into the water. All the bricks that make up the well and the bucket fall into the water. ''RAZOR! Where are you? You idiot!'' screamed Cephas in his communication object. Then we see an empire of Alien soldiers coming out of nowhere shooting at the rebels scattered everywhere. Cephas had had enough of these rebels and had declared a mini war. And it was going to be bloody as hell
