Left 4 Dead: Gemini Strain.
Chapter I: Conflict – Adam
"Please,
will you let us in? This is not right at all!" Though
I intended for these words to come out with a strength they stuttered
and left empty in the air. My gun was pointed at the group in the
same fashion as Latvia and the others. These men seemed fully capable
of disposing us and taking all that we had. In a crisis such as what
had befallen this world, it hurt to know that we should now fear even
each other.
Latvia and I could not possibly take them at
all. Our Berettas were no match for a shotgun, a rifle, and an Uzi.
This was nothing more than a stare down that I hoped would end
peacefully. There was no need to shed blood and yet looking in the
leaders gave me the impression that he and the others would not be
far from it. The leader's appearance was disheveled as much as his
crew behind him. His face was splotchy with dried blood; his summer
wear was anything but clean as it was in tatters. His dark eyes were
full of a fire that had all to consumed him. I made a quick glance to
Latvia. Her face was resolute and her eyes unwavering. She would make
action if necessary. It seemed she had already become aware of their
madness.
"I
suggest that you three put down your weapons, NOW!" Latvia
practically yelled at them as her grip tightened on her gun. Her
stance became stronger and an angry sneer curled up on her lips. I
would've taken the time to admire her strength but with these
weapons pointed at me in an attempt to end my life certainly hindered
that.
I could not tell you what happened next even to this
day. Even when I asked them what had happened all I got was a cocky
grin and a pat on the shoulder. Right then, with the five of us at
ends with one another
