Chapter 5: The Museum
When I woke up, I was on a padded surface and had a wicked headache. I groaned loudly
as I sat up and looked around. I noticed I was in a car, laying across the back seats. There
wasn't anyone in the passenger seat, but I noticed a man driving. "Who are you? Where
am I?" I asked in a just woke up tone. "Don't you remember anything Mulwray?" the
man replied sternly. "Huh?" I questioned at the sound of my name. He clucked and
replied in a nicer tone, "You probably had a concussion from running into the door." He
started laughing hysterically, which made me uncomfortable. "What are you talking
about?" I demanded. "How do you know my name? Who are you?" he shook his head
and I fought off my anger. "I'm General Kontsa, remember?" he paused. "Me and my
squad are helping you find Adam and your friends." He looked to see if I was catching
on, but I wasn't. "Whose Adam? What friends?" I asked. He sighed loudly and said,
"We're headed to The Hickory Museum, that's where you told us to go. That's where
they are." I looked at him as if he were crazy and laid back down. "You don't
remember?" he asked almost sounding concerned. "Look man, I have no idea what your
talking about." I told him. "Great." He mumbled. He mumbled something else but I
didn't catch it. Instead, I drifted back to sleep. I awoke once more, and noticed I was still
in the car. I bolted upright and glanced at the general. "Morning sunshine." He said
turning to me. I looked at him with wide eyes and said, "Since when were you nice to
me?!" he looked at me a bit confused and didn't answer. "Are we almost there?" I asked
impatiently. "Yeah." He said slowly and strangely. "What?" I asked him not sounding too
friendly. "Nothing." He quickly said. "It'll only be a couple more minutes." "Good." I
said, disregarding his strange mood. We were both quiet for a while until he turned into a
parking lot and said, "We're here." I jumped out of the car and raced to the building.
"Wait Brennan!" he called after me. I was shocked he used my first name and turned
around. "What do you want now?!" I questioned, my temper rising. "Remember my
squad?" he asked. "Yeah." I replied as if it was a stupid question. "Yeah, they go in first."
He instructed me. "Oh." I said not even noticing that they had pulled in right behind us.
They all nodded their heads at me and turned to the general. "When ever you're ready."
He told them, and they slowly approached the building. 'Please let it not be too late!' I
prayed. "Ok," the general turned to me, "Lets go." I nodded and followed him into the
museum. Dead bodies were all that could be seen in the old museum. Some, just people
who worked there, some, who were at the wrong place at the wrong time, and some,
whom the squad had just taken out. I groaned at the smell of the corpses and looked at the
general. He wore a blank expression and returned my glance. "What you expected this to
be a piece of cake?" he asked me, as if the entire situation was my fault. I didn't reply,
just continued to follow him silently. The squad was extremely good at removing any
unwanted 'obstacles' in our way, until we came to the stairs. As soon as the first two
members of the squad turned the corned to the stairs, they were shot down, dead. I buried
my head in my hands and closed my eyes. The general slapped my upper arm and I
looked at him sorrowfully. "Its not your fault." He whispered. I looked at him
unconvinced and he shook his head. His other two troopers moved forward on command
and continuously fired as they rounded the corner. They also went down but it sounded as
though the others went down with them. I took a deep breath and followed the general to
the stairs. I decided now was a good time to reveal my secret, and charged my tesla coils.
The general started at me disbelieving and I smiled back. I jumped the corner before the
general could and shot a tesla coil at the remaining gunman. He fell to the ground, and so
did I.
