Bab 3: The Battle
" Now hand me that shotgun and any information you have... wait you there, I have seen you somewhere", he said pointing his finger at me. " Well I haven't seen you anywhere..."
"No, I... I... saw you in a dream, like a dream giving me a warning about this.."
" Wait! You saw those dreams too, like the ones that kept on coming every night? The ones which were like real? The ones from...", Sam asked.
"YES! Do you know anything about them?!"
"No, but if we see these dreams we need some answers and I thing we probably shouldn't be pointing our guns at each other", I said.
" You are right", he lowered his gun and signalled his friend to do the same, " My name is Higson, and this is Roughy. We had a duchshund too but he went away to find some dinner", Higson said. " Umm what's a 'duchshund'? ", Texas asked. " Oh, its a dog, its name is Enter"
***
We walked to the place where we ate in the dreams, it was kind of a restaurant I guess, with free and delicious food.
I saw a dog at the entrance and Higson fired two short blasts from a whistle and that dog came running towards us, I deduced that he was Enter. This restaurant has the best food ever, maybe beacause I was hungry and had not eaten for 15 hours or because of the recent 'incidents'.
We slept in some house, I saw photos of the family that lived here, they were almost beautiful. There were no dead bodies here so I guess they all escaped, they must have received the message about the 'incident' at Orma. I still dont know what to name the thing that happened at Orma or the rest of the world. Just thinking about these things, my thoughts drifted to the fact that now that the dreams became reality', what dream will I be seeing now?
***
This place was pretty lit up. People were busy. I was taller and my hands looks older like I was 30 or something, I was wearing a black cloth, it was just some gown, I was also wearing a hood. It looked like it was a market street, but something felt different, the air was different, the sky was... it looked like... there were stars and planets, there were so many moons... then just suddenly everything started shaking, I saw a man trying to pull me down into a kind of a bunker...
" Come on Preak, we can't let you die here, we knew this was coming... "
Then there was explosions, the bunker door closed, suddenly there was a lot of turbulence, I was thrown to the right, then to the left, when it calmed down I saw through the window, big rocks... no big parts of a planets, flying away, it looked like a planet was destroyed, I was in space. Then I heard some noise, it was gun firing, and some girl was screaming my name....
I woke up. That was just a dream. Again. " NOT AGAIN DAMN IT!", I screamed out of my consciousness. "What not again? You need to get up and help everybody, they are fighting against US soldiers, I don't know how they found us", Texas said. I grabbed the Assault Rifle Texas was handing me and ran outside and crouched down next to Sam who was himself on a maxhine gun. This was kind of the town square or something, there was a fountain in beetween, and was secluded from the rest of the town by a small boundary, there was a US military car parked in front of the gate of the border. Vadar and Roughy were on a higher floor shooting at the soldiers. I couldn't see Higson but I was sure he wouldn't give up on us, because I guess we were all part of the 'dreamers'... Hah what a name I cooked up at a time like this.
" I say we flank 'em", I said
" Don't know man, we can't probably volley over that high border.", Sam protested. Just then those soldiers started throwing grenades. I saw Higson running out of the building in front of us just before it blew up.
" Mate I don't think we have a chamce here, maybe the dreams were just a piece of.... ", Sam said sadly. " No. Don't lose hope, look there, they just started throwing grenades, why do you think they did that?", I said. " Maybe 'cause that is faster"
" No silly, 'cause I think they are out of ammo", I said, knowing I am completely wrong and that they certainly are a faster method that is why they are using it but I still said to instill some hope in Sam. He started shooting again and asked me to get in the front with Higson.
***
We were certainly pinned down, but I somehow was sure Higson has a plan because his face just lit up like a 'Victory' sign had been shown to him.
" We could stop firing get our guns down and..." " Surrender? Did you just fight this hard until now just to quit?", I had stopped him mid-sentence, because I had hoped he had some plan but just ruined all my respect for him. " No, not surrender, we wait for them to enter here and just kill 'em hand to hand", Higson said. " I take everything back that I said just now and whatever I just thought", he made the humblest smile I had ever seen.
We stopped firing. They stopped firing. I can't believe it but it was a funny scene for a while until they took their guns and started heading inside. They split up near the fountain in two groups, one entered the building in which I and Higson were and the other entered the opposite building where Vadar and Roughy were. I guess Roughy got impatient and started shooting, the bullets hit all of them, but none of them lay dead, it was some kind of body armour I thought at first, but then I noticed, the bullets didn't even pierce in the arms or legs. " Full-Body armour, these were is development... but I guess they were completed... I don't know anymore how will we defeat them... ", Higson said, almost about to fall to his knees. I grabbed his arm and said reassuringly," Don't worry, we already have a way, we'll just have to slit their throats.", "But they are too many... ". Suddenly I heard a blast, it was from the other building, I was worried but I told myself, we had our own number of soldiers to deal with.

We took our knifes out and headed for the door, we opened it silently, we were on the first floor, this room had almost no furniture the walls were also dull, but of blue color... it reminded me of my home, my life before all this, how I imagined these kind of situations or just played video games, shooting people, but just in a day we became killers...
