Chapter 3:Injections

When they decided to leave that bar after searching for clues in order to find more ways to find if the address of the note was not right but instead they just found a bunch of liquor and horrible smells of aberrations and deprivation that went through the smell of the very dirty and bloody bar they went on a 1970 precious very clean dodge charger that simply Paul love to drive everywhere even at work.

Took them 1 hour to finally the location that was written on the note, when they got outside the car they had this really confused and weird it out look on their faces, and the reason for this?, well the reason was clearly that the place was a homeless shelter that it went for the name of F.M.N, the place seem really beoad and Ipen, like the size of a hight school, Archie asked in a confused way "is this really the right location Paul?" "Welll it seems it is the one that is on the one, there you can see the number Archie" tood Paul while pointing at the address of the building.

When they finally entered after questioning themselves one of what it seems like the people who are working in the place 30 old looking man with a smile welcome them both to the place while asking for their visit, they told him that they were looking for this girl named Melody and that she went missing a few days ago and that one of they places they have found hints from was right here, the man with still a smile on his face told that the place was not really a place of thieves or kidnappers but rather a place of people who need shelter and sweet bed to dream, Paul asked him if they could check the place even if they were convinced of what the man told them about, "it seems that two detectives decided to interfere on the business of the big mens" said thee smily man who now turned his smile into a serious face.

While they were looking through the big hallways and corridors the place had they had yet found nothing but just poor people walking and talking innocently, but when they went back to the stares of the first floor when they finally thought it was over and that they give up even asking everyone about Melody and his whereabouts they didn't knew anything about it, Paul saw that one of the many statues this place had of houses and bread that it seemed weird looking and he decided to touch and trying to find a button to a probably hidden passage but he found nothing but instead a hole that seemed to fitting of something small a pendant, and then he went to look for that man that welcome them and saw that he was right, he saw a pendant on his chest that looked like a fire symbol and they knew damn well they had to take it from him.

They formed a plan which basically was that Archie started a conversation with him then while getting into the conversation he tries to move him into a room away from others which then he succeeded and placed right at the x point and then Archie aimed his gun at him while Paul closed the door so anyone could see or hear. Now the three of them are finally with him, then Archie quickly smashed his gun at his head which made him pass out instanly, then they proceeded to take the pendant out of him then hide him behind a bunch of cleaning utensils that where in a more less space room. When they finally did it they both quickly ran all the way to where the statue was, inserted the pendant in and this opened a secret door below the blanket that it make a sound so that the boys found it and they opened without no one looking and then they went down stairs for more than 10 seconds going down and finally hit ground.

They have finally arrive at the bottom but everything seem it to be embraced in the darkness of no lighting, it was a small room with a 2x2 complex with nothing put just a door that light came from inside of it,"she is probably there, be ready" said one to another as they both walked to it and when they finally entered and went past the lighting they saw a big facility with lots of lights on top and a bunch of boxes all over but the worst thing they saw a bunch of people being put in surgical tables and being strap on them while a long tube being injected to them in the arm with something kind of looking like blood but not exactly and a bunch of man putting the people in there. They also saw that there was also people in cages and they decipher that those same people we're getting injected with this blood like fluid, one of the men that was there saw the two and got close to ask them why they were there in the entrance instead of working,"get to work!" Said the man yelling and pushing them to one of the cages with people on them,"we have to do something about this Paul"said Archie "yeah I know".

The people that were in the cages did not looked scared or anything but just dull, it seems that they were drugged so they would obey and do anything they tell them, they knew the only way to save them was through a really smart plan and it had to be hights off.

While they were near the entrance were that was happening in that hidden place far but near was John Miller with his 4 men and another man walking near shelf that contained contained blood looking thing," so you finally have decided to join our luxurious business eh?, well things set you'll be making a ton of money thanks to us my friend" said the mysterious guy, "well I know that you guys stupid business of weird staff really paids, i mean i know that you guys are probably a big thing that I don't want to be involved with, so just shut up and me what hell am I and my man supposed to get you so we could get paid and goodbye" said Miller that knew they were doing something he definitely did not wanted to get involved with but he knew that they would pay good for it and he only cared about that,"well calm down pal there is no meed to be uncivilised but i know you just want to do this and get done so hear me out because well made ears hear money from no sound places", this mysterious man was definitely looking like he was from the old past by wearing an old fashion belmont victorian tuxedo with a gold clock on the left pocket with teashade glasses that probably were for sensitive sight, he was tall probably six two feet tall with a beer belly and brown-ish long ponytailed hair, he wore a lot of rings probably from his thumb to the smallest finger all made of golden.

"Now lets get it on so your job is this one" gets closer to Miller while walking through the place, "I need all of you to kill a list of men that lives in this city and would probably bother our organization by getting their noses in what they don't have to look at just like this place that I build which provides for Cytro humans that come like homeless people so we get them like that, I'm going to show you pictures and everything of their locations", " So who are they or what they do?" Asked Miller "well they are just police officers or government people that would want to intervene with what we do because you perfectly know all of this of course its illegal and well we hide it everything and call ourselves the organization that helps the planet and humanity which of course everything is false and we are the opposite, why? Because the top men want I don't know what but this work comes from them and I can't ask because they would simply say all it's classified, I am so distracted i haven't even told you my name, it's Vesta."

While they were walking and talking about how Miller would have to do his job Miller was looking through the place and as he was seeing the jails with the people and the workers who were there he saw a man that was looking straight at him right on his eyes for a long time, he did not recognized the man but sure he was asking himself what was he looking. It was Paul the man that was looking at him, with stress and anxiety Paul knew this was a very dangerous place and while he stood there looking at him he knew it was a waste of time and that he should get moving to find Melody, they were walking both lowering their faces and looking at the cages to see if she was there and that it was the one from the picture that Charlotte send them, then he saw her, she was in one of the cages right at the end of the row thankfully she was not in one of the chairs that they were getting injected and that they were on time, but now came the hardest way which it was how they are going to get all this people out.

"Archie do you still have does adrenaline pills in your pocket?" "Yeah I still have them and I know you told me not to have them because they are dangerous if used constantly but I dont and there might be a time that I would surely need to"," well that time is now", Paul grabbed the pills and got closed to the cage while looking distracted and while doing that he entered the pills into one of the cages and told them to share them with the others and that it would wakes them up, that when the lights go out they would have to run and fight their way out like a riot and also help the people on the surgical chairs scape, when he said that he looked at the people who weree already infected and saw that all of them who were already injected fell to the floor and were having seizures while being taken away like nothing, he felt really angry and knew that he had to free them from this place.

So the plan started, Paul and Archie were worried that the adrenaline would cause a second effect on them but it was the only way to make them wake up and have enough energy to run and scape, but they have to do something too which was to open the gates by turning off the electricity because the locks were electric, they did an all round check of the place and that all the pipes and electricity came from a locked energy box below the ground in which it was in another room full of pipes and an ugly smell, they entered there and got ready to opened and turn it off and getting all the electricity off, Archie looked out side the door and watched how the people were standing up and getting ready to run or fight with full-on energy, "do it" said Archie to Paul the Paul moved forward and turned off all electricity and all lights off making everyone see nothing and lettings the cages open for everyone to get out, and they did not needed to see where the exit was, all of them started running and some of them started fighting the guards while others helping the people in the surgical chairs scape.

It was a chaotic riot, they all were full of energy but some of them after fighting the guards started to collapse and fall, sacrifices had to be made for salvation, now it was the perfect time for them to find Melody and scape but it would be hard due to not seeing anything because of darkness, "Melody, Melody, Melody Parker!" Paul screamed yell with all his mouth cords while getting through the crow, then they both found her and told her they came looking for her thanks to her sister,"Charlotte? Is she ok?" Asked Melody, "yes she is fine but now we have to get out while we can" said Paul then grabbed her by the hand and all three started running to the exit and finally getting free.

It was a big amount of people getting out through the door and people outside were so confused as to were they came from, the person who welcomed Archie and Paul woke up and quickly grabbed his walkie-talkie and told his boss Vesta of what was happening and what was he seeing, Vesta, Miller and his men did not knew nothing because they were at an office that was sound proof, they quickly got out of there and turned on the emergency light and saw the hole mess that was happening "what the fuck is happening here?" Miller asked looking really confused, "I don't know but I better put order in here" said Vesta full of anger, in that place was supposed to stay hidden that is why guns were not allowed because they would hear them outside that is why the only gun they had was Vesta's which was big machine gun which he grabbed and started blasting it in the floor not hitting no one so they could calm down and he started yelling "calm the fuck down or i will murder you all" the people that still were there stopped fighting and instead started running to the only exit of the zone, but Vesta would not accept that and he started shooting the people that were running outside killing a bunch of them, he relaxed "Fuck this everyone get the ready the cars and burn everything we are out!, and sorry about this inconvenience now go and do what we pay you for Miller"

"Alright and good luck with the mess" said Miller leaving with his men.

"Everyone out this place it's going to explode!" said Paul so the homeless people in the shelter panicked and started leaving the place. They all got out and got in their car and finally left the place, and one hour later the hole place got burn being exposed on the news with interviews of the people down there saying that they were Drugged and put in surgical chairs while being injected with a red looking kind of blood substance.

They finally arrived at Charlotte's home, knock on the door and letting Charlotte let her sister back again with a brief hug, "thank you thank you so much I can't even describe how thankful I am" said Charlotte, "It's fine, but now we have to discover what the hell is going on in this town" said Paul with worry on his eyes.
