Chapter 103: Nukes (4)
Then, a guy with a motorcycle drives towards the eerie town with a kid on the back. He got in and then parked into a pharmacy shop. As soon as they got our motorcycle, a fire was immediately shot to the ground near them.
"What business do you have here!?" A shout was heard however there is no one to be seen. "Wait!" The man shout "I only came here for medicines! My wife and daughter are dying from sickness! We mean no harm" he said as they raised their hands on the air
….
"Dammit, those are kids and women! Are you just gonna abandon them!?"
"No but think about it? What if he's lying?"
"He's right! He might buy that kid on purpose to deceive us!"
A group of voices started arguing
"It's fine! We're just gonna leave!" The man on the motorcycle said
"Dad… I'm scared" the kid trembled in fear
"God Dammit Chika! Get back here!" A male voice shouted, then in a shop nearby, a famale with black haired arrived. She's wearing a police uniform.
"Hey~ don't worry, don't worry, I mean no harm, okay?" She said as she threw her pistol away on the ground
"Where's your wife and daughter? Let us take her to our base. We have good doctors there to help your family out" she said smiling, offering a hand
"Well… we came here from the town of Rusvil"
(Which is the town where Souta meets Shana)
"Rusvil? Damn that's a far place, yeah? How about just taking some medicines first, then getting your wife and daughter here? I'm sure they will be safe here. After all, this town here is ruled by police officers!" She shouted happily
"Goddamit Chika, if that turn out to be a bad guy, you're out here" their leader said, stepping out from the shop also.
It was a middle-aged man with a fat body, then some other men. They are all 5, including Chika. "Thank you very much" the man said
"Let's get out here before unwanted guests arrive" her boss ordered then to get in their police pickup truck, which is parked in the garage of the shop
"Okay~" she said "Let's go" she then climbed on the trunk. And the man and the kid follow.
"So can you tell me more about yourself?" She asked, being friendly
…
However, she was met with silent "I see, not so friendly huh… can't blame you. This is the apocalypse, after all" she said and kept quiet herself.
10 minutes then have passed and they arrived in their base, which is in the police station. The surroundings have made shif barriers, wood, metal, scrap, and broken vehicles.
They have 4 watch towers looking at each sides, they were all on their police attire. They opened the gate, then the man asked "Are you all police officers here?"
"Yeah, our police chief led us here. All the police personnel, even from other towns, have gathered our call and built a safe haven for the civilians"
[That's good to hear] The voice came from the man's pocket, which is the walkie-talkie
"W—?" Behind them, which is the gate as they already got in. All the police personnel that are in charge of guarding started to rush towards the wall and point their gun outside
"You betrayed us?" She still couldn't believe that her kindness betrayed her
"This is what the fck I'm talking about!" Her supervisor said as he got out the pick-up truck to help.
"Now now, will you all calm down?" The man said, getting out the trunk of the pick-up truck with the kid
He then took off his cloak and revealed his police uniform. The man was actually William, and the kid was his son. The girl and the other then pointed their guns at them.
"What's going on here!?" A shout was heard as the reinforcements came. The one who shouted was no other than the leader of the place, which is the police chief.
A woman in her 30s, with black hair, tall and slender body. She is what you call a mommy.
"Well well, it's nice meeting you again. Chief" William said
"Oh? Isn't it William! It's been a while since I last saw you! The last time was when you got transferred. How was your wife?"
"Yeah, it's a shame. My wife and my kids are fine"
She then signaled her hand to stand down "I know him" they immediately complied. "that's good to hear, So? Can you tell me what you came here for?"
[Well, isn't it Olivia, it's been a while] Shana's voice said in the walkie-talkie as William took it out of his pocket
"Oh!?? It's Shana! Let them in, let them in!"
And so, they let them in. "Shana!" She immediately went and hugged her "It's been a while Olivia, sorry we didn't come much earlier"
"It's fine, I'm just glad you're safe!"
"Likewise"
"It's also good to see you Sara" she said, looking at her as she pushed Shana gently away
"It's good to see you doing well" Sara replied with a smile
"What an unexpected reunion! But looking at your equipment and your comrades, you all probably had a place to stay, right? Surely you didn't come here just to see me, noh?" She said, getting into the business
Shana then looked around, "Can we find a better place? A more private one if possible" Shana replied with a serious experience
"Okay, follow me"
