Capítulo 3: Scavenger
I open my eyes to the ceiling with a single lightbulb shining in my eyes and feeling an aching pain after, I get out of bed and remember that Sebastian said there was a mission today. I stood up and went to the armory and began fitting up the armor that I saw yesterday, it fits perfectly as if they suddenly knew my size among other things.
After fitting on the armor and getting the stock weapons that I can get my hands on in this room with ammo boxes that were conveniently placed in the closets alongside the guns, while in the middle of arming myself and getting magazines a knock from my door interrupted me. I walk back to the door with the knocks becoming faster and faster, when I opened it was Stephen with a long and decorated rifle on his back and a communications pack, "Good job almost done we gotta leave in 10 minutes, the truck is outside" said Stephen holding a tablet in his hand. Fitting the last magazine in the last pocket I can find on this vest I open the door and walk out of my room, everyone looked at me for a split second and continued finishing their tasks. After everyone finished preparing we walked out the door and walked back down the hall, the same way I entered from.
Reaching to the front desk Sebastian tells her something unintelligible and she points to a different hallway, this hallway though had steel garage doors with a terminal on each door with a bar on the bottom, each door similar to the other just with different numbers on each door. We arrived at a door with the same number to our room 497, Sebastian pressed a couple of buttons on the terminal and with a beep he lifted the door. The inside or the room was large and had mild dust like it's been used a week ago, in front of my eyes are two armored trucks meant to carry five each and loads of cargo.
One by one we get in both trucks along with me, I opened the door handle and the inside was spacious enough fit for three, and sitting down on the car seat felt comfortable and relaxing. Nora, Mary, Stephen, Sebastian and I went into a truck with Sebastian on the wheel, A press of a button on the side of the wheel the engine came roaring to life like a lion. The truck came into reverse as a large gate that I have not seen opened into a tunnel with a light in the end, Sebastian suddenly stepped on the gas and the truck went into speeds I never imagined a truck could pull off. Closing in on the light it become brighter and brighter until, we breach through it, out of the light is a courtyard but this courtyard is one I never seen before, maybe it's a secret as well.
We began our trip to the city we are supposed to go to, the traffic was almost non-existent which is bizarre since this place has a massive traffic problem. Stephen seems to be trying to fix his communications pack and switching dials and such. Mary was next to me cleaning her knife and doing more tricks with it, "He said the mission is to loot a building with valuable stuff in it" said Mary. The others were just inspecting their stuff to pass the time with the second truck following us behind, "What's the cut again" I asked at Sebastian, "Dunno couple of thousand each it's just a scavenging mission" replied Sebastian, we relaxed back on our seats and waited till we arrived.
We arrived at the building that Sebastian mentioned in the map along with the second trucks, the building looked old and abandoned but still had a couple of doors and windows. The inside was barren and graffiti littered the walls of this building, but no wonder the building looked abandoned and untouched, since surrounding it was just a forest. I'm curious though, what this place used to be, and why it was secluded from the city.
We walked in and a sense of dread consumed me but confidence urged me to continue stepping forward. Dust flew around the room endlessly as the light shine upon them, readying my weapon we began our search in the building, one by one we disappear into the dark ready flashlights that were integrated into our helmets. The sound of glass shards and rock as I slowly step in the building rattled the silence that was here, suddenly a pile of pipes came falling down and a shadow dashed into another room. I cautiously walked to the room expecting someone with a gun, but nobody was there, when I took the first step in the room something grabbed my gun and pulled it, we both struggled with the rifle each getting stronger and stronger, a shot rang out from my back and looking to my front the man was shot in the head. He fell with a loud thud on the ground and turned lifeless, looking back it was Nora with an smg pointed at where the man's head was. "You good?" I nodded back at her "Good, that's one for me" she goes back to searching for what we're trying to find, wonder where she came from since this room is deep in the building.
I continued to search the building for whatever were supposed to find, the radio beeped and said "Everyone regroup outside the building, we found the objective" must be Sebastian. I made my way outside to regroup and the walk out seemed shorter than the walk in, outside the building Sebastian, Mary, Marcel, Stephen, Thalia and Luna stood around.
The rest came out after a couple of minutes of waiting, each going to their respective trucks. After everyone got in we drove back, our truck was driving out of the area but something doesn't feel right about it. Before my thoughts even finished an explosion rocked the truck with the sound of gunfire and bullets slamming into the truck. Nora jumped out of the truck with her smgs unleasing a hail of bullets into the trees from where the shots came from. I opened the window and helped Nora to return fire with my rifle, Mary joined in with the second truck also returning fire.
What seemed like minutes one by one we stopped firing and stared at the grass and trees, now littered with bullets along with shredded tree bark. "Get back in your cars we ain't investigating that!" shouted Mary sticking her head out the window shouting at the second truck. The others quickly went back into the trucks and started to drive off again, Thank goodness the truck is an mrap, so that's why it didn't blow up thinking to myself.
A sense of relief went over me as we get farther from that forest and whoever that was, before the roads were almost empty with little to no cars as far as the road goes. "Close call think I got four" said Nora holding up four fingers while speaking, "How are you so sure its four? could've been an mg turret there" blurted Mary with a smirky expression to her face. "If you two argue again don't bother it's almost a headache by this point" shouted Stephen with a long sigh and a tired voice to his words.
"So how many did you guys kill?" asked Sebastian to probably fill in the awkward silence, one by one eveyone here answered with varying numbers, 4,7,6. "What about you Damon?" asked, "I didnt get any" the whole team laughed hysterically for seconds then turned silent again. "I say he gets half from one of my kills" said Nora with everyone having shocked expressions on their faces.
One or two hours go by and the truck finally arrives back at the school, Sebastian drives the truck onto a platform marked with a yellow square and so does the second truck. One by one everyone got out and stood around for awhile, Sebastian goes to a terminal, with a few taps the platform holding the trucks slowly descended down.
Sebastian with a laugh, gestures his hand, asking us to follow him inside, "You guys go back to the room im gonna talk to the person who wants this" said Sebastian with the box tucked under his arm, we followed his orders and went back to the room chatting about different things while walking to the room. "There's ramen in the fridge i'll heat it up" said Mary running to the large fridge at the corner of the room. Stephen turned on the tv in front of the table with a remote then pulled out a small box from underneath the table, Stephen opened the box and inside was a random assortment of colored game controllers. Mary got the ramen and heated it with hot water and set it on the table to let it cool down, Stephen looked at me and asks "Hey Damon, fancy a game of team deathmatch here?"
