Chapter 13:
Geminus
Grant, Yuri, Herald and Liam arrive at a cafe where they sat down.
"Hey guys." Said Liam "I'm just going to the restroom, I'll be back soon." They all understand and chatted amongst themselves except for Grant as he watched Liam ran to the restroom in a hurry.
Inside the restroom, Liam ran to the water taps and rinsed his mouth briskly with water and spitting out the water. He suddenly heard someone coming and he immediately spat the last water out and wiped his mouth and pretended that he was washing his hands.
Grant entered the restroom and asked "Hey, you okay?"
Liam answered, chuckling "Yeah, why would I not be?"
"Because your teeth were bleeding." Said Grant.
Liam was shocked by this but he tried to brush it off, saying "I-I just fell thats all..."
Grant looked at Liam with sceptical eyes, knowing well that he wasn't telling the truth and was hiding it. He placed his hand on Liam's shoulder and said "Hey, you can tell me Liam."
Liam shrugged Grant's hand off and answered passive aggressively "I'm fine, geez! Don't worry about me! Its like I said, I fell..." There was an awkward moment of silence between the two. Liam tells Grant "Come on, lets get something to eat." As he left the restroom.
Grant followed behind Liam, looking worried. The two returned to Yuri and Herald and together, they had breakfast. Suddenly, a horn went off loudly, causing the residence around them to go into hiding spots, confusing the four.
Grant noticed a vehicle coming from a distance. The vehicle itself appearing like something from a post apocolytic film. "We should get down, now." Said Grant. The vehicle drew closer, causing Grant to shout "GET DOWN!!" He flipped the metal table and grabbed the others closer to avoid being shot.
The post apocolytic vehicle drew close and immediately men, similar to the ones that tried to kill Liam and the others during their departure from Beormingahām, began shooting their rifles at the surrounding area. Glasses shot, the cafe's walls and ceilings were being shot at and even the windows from upstairs were being destroyed. After a couple of seconds, they stopped and drove off like they weren't going to be in trouble.
After the damage was done, the residents came out of their hiding spots, some were injured and others were shot by their attackers rifles. Grant, Liam, Yuri and Herald left their hiding spots and looked at the destruction that they had caused. They looked at the residents and could see in their eyes how it was filled with frustration and exhaustion. Yuri's phone went off. He looked at his phone and saw that Jason was calling them and therefore, he answered the call.
"Yuri, get back to the warehouse, we've got some bigger issues to deal with now." Said Jason, his tone sounding frightened.
Jason hung up the call and Yuri told the others "We have to get back, we got some bad news coming our way." Said Yuri.
They all ran back to the warehouse.
