Pecker

The night was very silent.

Ian arranged Ruby and Dean to stay on duty while the others could take good rest during the night to restore their stamina and be at best state to deal with the battle that was upcoming.

“Signal me if a monsters gets close to us.” Ruby looked at Dean.

Dean nodded slightly but didn’t talk. Both of them were sitting at opposite sides of the basement. Their attention was concentrated on the movement outside the basement.

They didn’t ignite fire in the basement to prevent the heat that could attract monsters to their location.

The cold wind flew from the vents of the basement. Eugene, Ian and others were wrapped in clothes and leaning against the wall as they slept. All of them held onto their weapons. It seemed as if they could wake up to face a battle at any time.
