AN: Here is chapter 4 of the story, hope you like it.
Two voices he heard from just around the corner. The empty and silent street
didn't sound so lonely anymore. He picked up his pace when the voices grew
louder just ahead of him. Finally making the turn towards the voices, he was met with
a man and a woman standing just outside a door down the street. From what he could
tell, the woman was the same woman he met earlier. She was talking to a tall
older man, with long black hair and beard. The guy seemed to get angrier with every
word she spoke. Bridge concentrated on what they were saying.
"I know what I saw and he was wearing a SPD uniform," the woman informed the
man.
"Are you sure you didn't hit your head during the raid today. We would have
seen their space cruiser by now if they lost one of their own."
"Pete I wouldn't lie to you, I touched him and everything. I'm telling you
the guy is real."
"Okay I'll rally the guys and you go inform headquarters what you told me."
The woman nod her head before running off across the street and disappearing
around the corner. The guy went inside the building after yelling:
"Guys get off your butts we got a SPD traitor among us."
SPD traitor, why are the people referring SPD as bad guys, Bridge thought to
himself. He now knew he was in another dimension. New Tech City wasn't what it
seemed anymore. He had to find out what's going on here without running into
people who think him as a traitor. Hopefully, in this world, he could find any exists that'll help take him back to his original dimention.
Turning down the corner he continued to walk. His brain working a mile a minute
trying to figure where could he go... and then, it hit him. Maybe the only people
who could help him would be his friends at SPD Headquarters. Picking up his pace
he headed off in the city to Headquarters.
The night grew darker every turn and street he met. It's like the city was
deserted with the crack building and border up windows. Beside the woman and
the man she was talking to, it seem like the City was nothing more then an
abandon city.
Now turning another corner, he could see the SPD building just a
few blocks from where he stood. It didn't seem like the building was touch
by the attack or anything indicating that it was attacked. His walk quickens at
the thought of seeing his friends but hesitated to think what this world done to
them to make the people of the city think of themm as traitors.
A man up ahead walked out of a dark and stepped out in his path. Quickly Bridge
stopped in his track. He didn't know if the man posed as a threat but seeing how
the woman reacted towards him he didn't want to take any chances. He stood
ready for any attack but the man just stood there. What did he want, he just
standing there. After a minute done pass another man steps out of the shadow and
stood in front of the man. Soon more join them and Bridge was faced with seven
men, two with ropes in their hands. Figuring that five against one was a bad
number, especially since they were just civilian, he backed off. And with every back steps
he took they took a step forward.
"Hey SPD what are you doing out here alone? Your friends left you to defend
for yourself," one of the man said.
"I don't know what you are talking about; I just want to go to SPD
Headquarters."
"That's a bad idea pal, you're dead if you go anywhere near that place,"
another one said.
"Then help me, tell me where the others are and what happen here. Why is
everything so different?"
"Did you hit your head or something traitor, you and your friends left. As in
not here, not on this planet. They left us to defense for ourselves and let
Grumm and his minions take over."
Bridge look down, confuse. What is happening here?
"I don't know why you choose to show your face or that uniform around here.
You are a disgrace to our planet, a common traitor and you're going to pay."
With that the seven men advance toward Bridge. Not wanting to fight these guys,
Bridge choose to run for it. He ran down the street with the seven guys tailing
behind. Down the street he saw more people, this time with cubs, heading his
way. Turning he ran across the street and ran into an alley, in which his luck,
was a dead end. Blocked by a brick wall with several writing and blasted holes in
it, he turned toward the entrance, and saw the seven men and others join
in together making a mass of people as they near. Bridge pushed him self further
up against the wall as possible to not get as close to the rage mob before him.
They were yelling at him and swinging their threaten items up above their heads.
"GO BACK WHERE YOU COME FROM!"
"TRAITOR"
"WHERE IS THE SHIP YOU CAME IN?"
All to what they were saying, Bridge didn't seem to understand. He was the good guy but here,
wherever he was, he was viewed as the bad guy even when Grumm's Krobots were
roaming around blasting and taking people away. The screams seemed to cease,
starting from the back. Suddenly the crowd begin to split. Bridge waited in his spot
against the wall to see what or who was coming to him. Finally when the split
reach the front, Bridge eyes grew big.
"Z," he said at the woman standing in front of him.
Z looked hin up and down, a disguised look on her face. She spat a gum from
her mouth; it landed a few feet away from his feet.
"Bring the traitor to UC, I think we just found a way out of this dump."
