Chapter 10

My team and I were inside the castle, mainly guard duty, but there was the odd time where we had to help with medical supplies. I mainly wondered around looking for something to do. My men were respectful enough not to tell people about my…..disease. When I was in private, I honed these skills, and soon found myself jumping twice my height. We have been stuck here for two days, trying to recuperate, and figure a way out of this hell hole. It was now day three, and it looked like things were about to change.

"John?" Mary asked, coming into my makeshift room.

I was over by the wall, and quickly put on my gloves to hide the nails.

"Yeah?" I answered, putting on the gloves.

"Your sergeant wants to talk to you."

"Alright, tell him I'll be right there."

She nodded, and headed out the door. Mainly when my men went out, it was mainly small skirmishes and looking for food, water, and medical supplies. We had captured some of the laser guns, but had found them highly inaccurate, so decided to holster them, and only use them up close. I put on what was left of my gear, and headed towards the dining room.

As I arrived, I saw the rest of the squad waiting there for me too. They all had solemn looks on t heir face, and Greg had a huge bandage on his shoulder. I approached the group, and Fred stepped forward.

"Sir, take a look at this." He said, handing me a sheet of what looked like topographical data.

"Where did you get this?" I asked looking it over.

"All of us were able to rig a few things to make a small satellite, we then set it up to bounce off yet another satellite, and got a good air map of the city, and we can now tell you the hot spots in the city."

I looked at them with a smile, only my men could have pulled this off. As I looked at the map, I realized there was unheard of activity in the middle of the city. I looked again, and saw these Death Soldiers had set up a series of outposts around the middle.

"It looks like their trying to hide something here." I said pointing to the middle.

"Yes sir." Fred replied, "That's what this is about, we want permission to raid this area."

I thought it over, and realized the risk we were undertaking; I then saw a warehouse near the south western part of the city.

"This warehouse, do we have an ID on it?"

"No sir, it looks like it was used during the terrorist attack back in 2015, but we have no idea who actually owned it."

"Well, use your head sergeant, if it was us, it would have guns, if it was the terrorists, then most likely bombs, either way we can use it."

"But sir, they would have cleaned it out long ago."

"We'll have to chance it; we need something other than fire arms and C4 to get past those outposts."

"Yes sir, a small team perhaps?"

"No, you all go, I'll stay here and hold the fort, I'm pretty sure they know we're here now, so it shouldn't be long before they come for us, any other questions?"

Tyler stepped forward, and cleared his throat.

"Uh, yea LT how's your condition?"

I was not stunned by this question, but was a little frustrated that they kept asking.

"I told you guys, I'm fine alright? Good, get going, I expect a report with in 20 minutes of you guys leaving, got it?"

"Yes sir, alright guys, load up, andlet's go."

They left, not looking back, as I expected them to. I then made my way to the courtyard, but found myself dizzy, and sort of nauseas, so I made my way to my room instead. I found my vision going red, like when I was facing Vlad. I tried to control it, and when I finally reached my room, I was barely able to keep myself up right. I collapsed onto the bed, and pain was coursing through me like a NASCAR track. I closed my eyes, trying to will the pain to go away. I then looked up and saw….me! Except he wasn't me, he had blood eyes, and a vicious smile. He started hitting my gut, and pounding my face. I tried to hit him, but found I couldn't. So I willed myself up, and started swing around the room erratically. Then after about 2 minutes, Brankheart, Marry, and a few others came bursting through the door, guns ready, and found me, smashing things, and throwing stuff around. One of the civilians tried to detain me, and I ended up throwing him out the door. Marry then came up to me, and I stopped. We stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity, I then blacked out.
