Ling looks around the environment where they have come out as he thinks carefully on what to do next. He still did not get why Trisha was asking those questions, based on their implants, he should be the one doing the asking while she does the answering.Well, he just concluded that maybe he doesn't know what her implant has really boosted, so he had to answer the question she asked. "I think the first thing to do is to leave the streets and find out where exactly we are. Before thinking of where to go."While talking, he heads for one for the buildings along the road, it looked like a busy company, but with the apocalypse rising, the place was quiet and deserted, yet that did not stop them from finding their way, as it was better to be inside the building than out there on the street, exposed to the aliens.As if Ling knew that danger was close, as they were entering the building, an alien spaceship was approaching the location. Hearing the noise of the spacecraft, they both looked o
Stan Gibson, Nassor Dimka and Lisa Perry successfully out smart those aliens as they did not stop shooting at the block which Stan is believed to still be hiding behind until they approached it only to see that no one was behind the block which had made them discard the Nassor and Lisa who would have fallen victim of them. At the time when they noticed Stan was not hiding behind the supposed block, it was already too late.Miles away from the place, Stan, Nassor and Lisa were panting heavily due to the race they had indulged in. They have been running in that pace for close to an hour since they had to make sure none of the aliens were after them.Still panting heavily, Nassor asked Stan. “How did you escape?” he paused, inhaling and exhaling rapidly. He really wanted to know how Stan was not hiding at the back of the block which he had run to. “I saw you run behind that wall.” Stan was also panting heavily, and he also knew that his move had amazed them. But he just could not answer
The old man’s countenance changed after seeing their teeth and fingers as he had requested, so he asked, still pointing the gun at them even though he wasn’t looking as dangerous as earlier. “How come you have these weapons if you are humans as you claim?” From the question, their minds became at ease a little bit because they could now tell what the whole instruction was all about. At least they were quite sure that he would not hurt them as long as they played their cards well. “We took it from the aliens.” Nassor answered him. “Do I look like some kid you could just lie to? One more lie from your mouth and I will blow your head off.” The old man threatened him. Then he looked at Stan who appeared to be leading them from what he saw and said. “You, tell me how you got these weapons?” Stan did not know what to say to the old man that would be convincing because Nassor had already told him how they got the guns of the aliens. After much thinking, he finally said, “If we are aliens
In the company where Ling and Trisha had finally agreed to the request of Murphy, Iva and Chelsea to join them wherever they go. The aliens refused to leave the environment, thereby trapping them there for over twenty eight hours. Several times they have tried leaving the twelfth floor, but it was not possible because the aliens were everywhere in the vicinity and also on the ground floor. It was now obvious to them that aliens knew of people being in the vicinity that was why they had refused to leave.“We can’t stay here forever. We need to do something.” Chelsea said to her brother Murphy.“There is nothing we can do. Besides, we have all we need at the moment in this building.” Iva answered her.“It’s so boring staying in one location for a whole day.” Chelsea still complained, she was not the type that loved staying at a place for too long. Aside from that, she loved being in the midst of a crowd and if there was ever a community out there that had not been attacked by the alien
A few minutes after Chelsea came out of the bathroom, they began to hear the sound of helicopters flying above the building and it was something to be suspicious about, so Murphy looked out of the window to see what exactly was going on above them. From what he saw, he could tell that it was the soldiers of the country and at once he turned back to his sister and said. “What did you do?” “Nothing,” She stammered, but her mood and tone told otherwise, thereby letting them know what she had done. “What the hell is wrong with you?! We already talked about this, why did you do it.” Murphy was very angry that he felt like hitting her. In short he was going to hit her if not for Iva who came in between the both of them. She was also angry at Chelsea’s action but she knew that hitting her will not solve the problem. She had called the military already so there was nothing that could be done to reverse what she did. Meanwhile, Trisha was pacing the room thinking of what to do, she did not
On the twelfth floor where Ling, Trisha, Murphy and Iva were still contemplating on what to do next, they heard the explosion of the chopper on the rooftop and at once Murphy became more worried than he once was. His mind went straight to think about his sister as fear gripped him, causing him to think that she had died in the explosion. “Murphy, no,” Iva grabbed him as he was about to run out the room to the top of the building. Tears had filled his eyes already and it was nothing unusual. “You are still alive because you chose to stay with us, so don’t jump into their den, only be killed. Control your emotions.“No… let go of me.” Murphy pushed her, as he ran out of the room but Ling pursued him at once, he did not want him to die like his sister as they had suspected.Still running up the stairs, bullets were shot from above, it was the captain and the men he took with him into the building first. They shot the gun because they felt it was the aliens heading up there.“Don’t shoot
Meanwhile, Trisha had been listening to all they said even though her mind hasn’t aligned with it, but from what was heard, she left like there was hope for them, so she left the chair she was sitting and came to look through the window because the sight alone might give her a suggestion on what is to be done.What she saw amazed her so much that she had to put her head out of the window,looking left and right towards the sides of the buildings because she might see something that would help him leading down through the window.Well, Murphy had already checked out for this same thing which she was checking out for and none was found, so she could not see any too. But that did not stop her from thinking of another means for them to leave the office.“This is our way out.” Trisha said with so much confidence as she looked around the room.The others did not really bother about what she said, what they were concerned about was what she was going to do, so they stayed calm looking at her
Nassor was about to follow suit when Lisa held him by the wrist, “No, don’t go.” And that made him know how scared she was to be alone, therefore, he stuck her, as they kept shooting the aliens.Stan took the stairs as he pressed forward, shooting with both guns he had picked, he was not aiming as he shot so that made the aliens take cover because the bullets were flying out rapidly and killing as many that were hit by it. If it were to be the same type of guns used by the soldiers, then they would not be afraid of getting hit by the bullets.Since the aliens were afraid of getting hurt, it was easy for him to get to the sixth floor, but his getting there now made the remaining aliens to divide again because their targets were no longer on one floor level. They had to attack Stan on one end and also attack Lisa and Nassor on the other end.Inside the office, Trisha was still thinking seriously on what to do in order for them to climb out of the building. A lot of time had passed by al
