The family quickly descends from their lodge. The corridors were filled with hunters and soldiers setting up their gear. They walk down the stairs towards the main hall of the building. Even with the commotion Jonh was able to see Sam and Mike waiting for him.

*shove shove*

“Hey!!!!”

“Sorry!”

*shove shove*

Jonh dragging his family finally met with his two friends.

*huff*

“Holy hell why are there so many people in here?”

“From what I know they cram all of the hunters and some soldiers in here, Jonh.”

“God…….Have you recived the message too, right?”

“About D.C?”

“Yeah. We were in bed and all of the sudden a soldier came knocking.”

Sam turns to the Mike and Jonh after cleaning his shotgun.

“Know where Cris is?”

“Not a clue but we might see him soon. He is one of the commanders after all.”

“Huh……But what about our plan, Mike?”

“Don’t worry this will foil our plan…..yet.”

*streatch*

Sam grabs his shotgun and proceeds to walk towards the entrance shoving people aside to make way for his friends.

*chatter chatter*

*shove shove*

“The fuck you doing, Sam?!!?!”

“Finding our tenent, Mike.”

“You know the-”

Mike bumps into Sam’s back. Suddenly the rushed attitude of Sam came to halting stop. Little by little the crowd became silent.

“Good morning, Sam.”

“Good morning, sargent Muller.”

He peeks behind Sam seeing Mike and Jonh with his family. He nods his head to them Jonh and Mike hesitantly retribute the act.

“It’s a little tight in here. Why don’t we go outside for a bit Cris is waiting for you all.”

“Of course……sir.”

With no other options they followed Muller outiside. The streets were packed with armoured vehicles each one of them packed with personel. Sam was furious but he had to keep It quiet. Seeing this Mike taps on Sam’s shoulder with that he stpped aside and let Mike do the talk.

“So I must apologise for the unspected situation we find ourselves in.”

“Don’t worry Muller Jonh and Sam are already veterans just felt a little sorry for Carol, Owen and his pet.”

“Glad to hear that……Just a few blocks down and we are going to see your unit them.”

“Aren’t auxiliary. why would we have this special treatment, sir?”

“Well you see……..You hold a special packed with you and now you all are very famous. Are the soldiers bothering you a lot? Authographs maybe?”

“Huh…..From my part almost nothing but I think Owen recieved some praise.”

In the distance They saw Cris leaning his body on an APC. He glances towards them and starts waving his hands. Owen came running with Phyro right behind leaving his family and Muller behind for a little.

*grabs*

*spins around*

“How are you doing?”

*pats head*

“Well…..Why did we wake up so Early?”

“Monsters are attacking our capital up north. Did you talk to your father?”

“Yes…..I will go with the plan. But we are going to save people.”

“Of course we are going to save them. Just wait a little more.”

*closes door*

Once more they enter the cram space of the APC. The interior was filled with ammo boxes, MREs and ordinances. they shove the boxes around to make It a little more comfortable. Mike soon climed into the gunner sit with the boy and the dragon. While the others only hope for this to be the last time they enter in this vehicle.

*engine starts*

*vroomm*

“This will quite the ride, don’t you think Jonh?”

“Hope this is the last one, Cris.”

Jonh peeks at the window as he saw the soldiers and hunters packing up for the ride. The empty was for a moment livid even If It was not for a good intentition.

*gently pull shirt*

Carol suddenly rest her head on Jonh’s lap.

“What’s the matter, sweethearth?”

*yawn*

“Gonna take a nap…….Be sure to watch-”

“I know…..Just take It easy……I wake you up when we arrive.”

*brushes hair*

“Huh. When was the last time had a moment like this?”

“Not quite a honey moon.”

“Silly.”

Her slowly close as Jonh improvised a pillow with a empty backpack laying around the APC.

She snores a little as she soundly sleeps. Jonh could not hold his smiles.

“The shifts had to be intense.”

“Yeah not only the shifts. Susan’s research was demanding too.”

“Trying to find a cure, huh?”

“Yeah……..So can we talk?”

Cris discreetily places the box to muffled their conversation from the driver and the soldier next to him.

“Now we can do that.”

*Loud snore*

“The hell-.”

Jonh and Sam quickly turned around to see Sam with his head up sleeping lmost as If he was passed out. The sound of his snore’s almost overtakes the sound of the engine.

“Well this will help too.”

“Good one Sam.”

“So, the sargent told you anything?”

“Said we need to set up a supply hub when we got there……No especifications.”

“So just bunch up thouse boxes and store somewhere?”

“Yeah……..But we must be carefull…….Don’t want to let that happen like last time.”

Jonh glances at Owen happily jumping up and down on the gunner turret.

“We won’t part ways again thats for sure ……Anyways are going to fight anything there?”

“Well from what I know their are foucused on our marines so just hold the line and await for futher directions I suppose.”

“Sure everything goes as plan. In touch with Ben?”

“Of course.”

Cris shows a paper strip with a radio frequency written on It.

“Great job, tenent.”

*Bump*

While Cris and Jonh talk inside Mike, Owen and Phyro were scouting in turret with their night goggles. Although pretty tense they feel an earie calm as the breeze of a cold night soon to be touched by the sun rushing in on their faces.

“Seem anything kid?”

“No…..just trees and some rabbits……and deers.”

“Do they seem fine?”

“Yeah they are running off…..not standing still.”

“Good……Don’t want them tricking us again.”

The rays of dawn climed up the mountains they slowly descends the mountain and cover the trees shinning a bright and vivid green.

*takes off goggles*

“Owen takes your’s off too If you don’t want to get blind.”

The quickly takes off his goggles as Mike squints his eyes to see futher ahead. But soon he learns thats his visions is not the same as just sees a blured horizon.

“See anything Owen?”

“Yeah…..grey…..I think that…..are building up ahead.”
