Chapter 5-George De' Castellar

The Next Morning, Heron Village…

A beautiful morning after going for an awful situation in a whole day yesterday. But it still didn't change everything, leaving the same environment scenery. No sound of chirping birds or either cocking roosters. The area was very quiet and felt like being isolated. Some of the other side, leaving a creepy feeling when being there. A doubt and curiosity were always lingering in the thoughts as the heart beat rapidly. That was a kind of feeling that being experienced by the two teenagers who were seemed to become as 'heroes', Thomas and Newt.

Thomas Edison who worked as the Head Commander of Elite Squad from I.S.F Department had been assigned to investigate the main source of the X-Virus which been reported it began from here. He also being helped and joined by a local villager who worked as a hunter, Newt. After what happened to them yesterday where they were being assaulted by the villagers who were becoming zombies, they became more careful and aware for any bad possibilities in the upcoming days.

This morning, they woke up early as they have decided to continue the investigation at that time. So, they quickly got prepared with their routines and then, they got ready with their weapons and equipment.

"Let's go, Newt!"Thomas yelled at Newt who was currently drinking water in the kitchen. After that, he heard a respond from him that saying, "I'm coming!"

Newt rushed from the kitchen and joined him at the main door. He grabbed his shotguns and put it on his back. He checked his porch bag to ensure that he got a sufficient equipment for the upcoming journey. Then, he smiled and he said,

"Let's go…"

Thomas grinned as he asked him curiously, "Feeling excited?"

Newt nodded happily. He folded his arms on his chest as he responded, "Bloody hell!Absolutely excited!You know what?!I'm starting to like shooting the zombies!It is very challenging and exciting rather than going deeper inside the forest and hunt for an animal. I got nothing…arse!"

"Yeah!With your extraordinary ability, you may be a famous sharpshooter one day." The head commander praised him, which made him blushing faintly.

The blond could only thanking him for the compliment. He just looked at his back for the last time to ensure that he have grabbed his shotguns. Then, he turned back at him and he said,

"Come on, Thomas..let's go!"

Thomas agreed with him. They began leaving the house as they walked heading to the north of the village. The life of the people were in Thomas's hand since he was the one that will saved them and returned the harmonious Metropolitan City back to usual. Thomas knew that he couldn't wait for any longer when he received a news where the forces have been retreated because of their assets that were decreasing gradually. So, he had to find the virus faster and returned back to headquarters as fast as he could.

…..

Heron Village Cathedral, North Heron Village..

It has been 30 minutes they have been walked from the main village area. Finally, they arrived at the north point of the Heron Village where they saw a cathedral a few metres at front. It was a usual place for Newt but not for Thomas, he was astonished with the building. How beautiful the building was, huge and colourful. Unfortunately, since the villagers have been infected by the virus, the cathedral became lonely and quiet.

"This is the north point of the village…" Said Thomas, looking at his GPS analyser where the device indicated that they were standing at the exact point of north.

Newt asked as he also took a glance towards the device, "What's the threat that you got?"

Thomas shook his head, looking towards the surrounding. He saw nothing wrong around the area. But, in his device alerted that there were some threats around them. He said, "I got no idea about that. There's nothing in this area but my device keep showing that there are threats here."

He took out his communicator and contacted Teresa from the headquarters. A few seconds later, she was on the line.

Thomas-Teresa, are you on the line?

Teresa-*white noise*, I'm currently on the line, Thomas. What can I help for you?

Thomas-I just want to make a confirmation from your data. My GPS indicator showed that there are threats around here. But, what I got was nothing. Nothing at all.

Teresa- *silenced for moment* Hmm, there are no threats at on the area. Something must be wrong at your device.

Thomas-Weird…my indicator has gone crazy I guess?

Teresa-It may be right, it may be wrong. But I suggest you to keep aware with the surrounding.

Thomas-Copy that!

Newt asked him once he ended the conversation with her, "I wonder who you're contacted with?"

Thomas answered, "Oh, I just contacted my leader, the Chancellor of the I.S.F Department, Teresa. She is the person that been responsible to take care of the zombies' threat at Metropolitan City. So, anything that happen to me, everything need to be report to her."

"So, what is going on though?" Newt got being curious.

The head commander broke his curiosity. He replied, "It's nothing wrong with my GPS analyser. The threats were maybe there or maybe there were not."

"We need to keep aware of the surrounding."

Thomas agreed.

Suddenly, the sky turned dark as the clouds turned dark black, showing that the rain will began anytime soon. It could affect their investigation as the time could become a waste. But, unfortunately they didn't make out when the rain began to fall down.

"Oh, god!It's raining…"Newt sighed.

Thomas looked up onto the black sky as the rain droplets were falling on his face. He can't see the sky very clearly because of the droplets that were falling on his eyes. He said, "Shit!This whether is wasting our time."

Then, Newt suggested, "Let's get a shelter, maybe staying in the cathedral for a moment would be a good shelter…at least until the rain has stopped."

The elite commander had to agree with his partner. As he also thought in the same time where he was thinking about his equipment that filled with electrical devices. He supported his suggestion,

"Yeah, I'm agree with you. Come on, let's get inside the cathedral."

…

Thomas and Newt both quickly ran inside the cathedral because of the rain that were going severed. At first, the door was lock but luckily Thomas had been taught about how to unlock the door instead of using keys. He quickly took out a small wire and he rolled it once. After he made the door opened, they rushed inside and they quickly closed the door and locked it instant.

They slanted on the wall as they huffed for the tiredness. They were running energetically and that made them very tired. It gave them an expression of disappointment because the rain will made their investigations being suspended until the rain has stopped. But what could they do, they have to stay in the cathedral for a long time.

"Bloody hell!How can we continue this if the rain keep 'attacking' the earth?" Newt murmured madly.

Thomas huffed a bit while he replied, "I-I don't know…maybe because of the meteorological reason."

Newt murmured again, "Blast off!Maybe I should use my shotgun to shoot the clouds then?"

"How can you shoot the clouds? It is just a cloud and you can shoot it." Thomas laughed mannerly.

But, the blond still didn't feel comfortable. He was mad with the rain, "Maybe my arse should be my shelter so we can continue the investigation."

Thomas laughed again. Newt's joke made his heart felt tickled and it made him bursting out to laugh. He was assuming that Newt can be insane or idiot. But he thought both of it would be very suitable for him.

Suddenly, as they both were very busy with each other, a middle-age man appeared from the right side of the cathedral hallway and stood at the stage. His presence was not been realised by both of them.

Finally he started the first conversation, "The virus soon will be spread to the whole world…"

Thomas and Newt stumbled with the words as they looked toward the stage. They were shocked when he was standing on the stage, realising that they were never realise in the first place. Despite of the manifestation of him, they were frowning for a sudden when they heard the word 'virus' and 'spread to the whole world'.

"Who the hell are you?" Newt asked him angrily.

"The X-Virus, the most magnificent creature that will change the world into a better one, terrific and horrible. The catastrophic of the Metropolitan City is only the first step in conquering the world. The zombies are all being ordered by me to attack that place. And now…the process will be complete very soon…"The man continued saying, but he didn't answer his question.

Thomas groaned and asked harshly, "Answer!Who the fucking you?!Introduce yourself!"

That man was wearing a black robe, red cape and black shoes. He introduced himself,

"My name is….George De' Castellar…"
