CYPHER

Rumbling City

" Get the things you need and go outside !! ", Dean yelled out .

Dean ran out of Blade's room and down the hallway .

It would be too bad if the golem launched an RPG at the church , not only would the church's beauty be lost , they might not make it out alive if they were knocked down by stones this old ans strong .

Dean ran down the stairs and past the pews , he jumped on to the pulpit and slid down to the door that led to his room , he aggressively pushed the door open and walked in.

Jade stood half naked in the middle of the room , he whirled around when Dean came in .

" Do you hear that ? It sounds like growls and it is everywhere ", He said , sounding frightened .

Jade looked and sounded frantic .

Dean sighed and almost slapped his own face in frustration as he saw the state that Jade was in.

" Never mind the sounds , What did I tell you ? Why are you here without your clothes and shoes after I told you not to be without your clothes ", Dean inquired .

Jade looked around , temporarily lost .

" But you told me that there was no need and ... " ,he began to talk before he paused .

Jade stopped talking when Dean hissed at him , he looked around once more before running out .

Dean began to hurriedly gather all of the drawings he had made and the little notes he had wanted to get back to , he packed the journal too and looked around .

The desk had all of his other things strewn on top of it including the ink stone and grinder , even the bottles of chloroform were on the table , there was too much to pack and too little time .

Too much would be lost if they lost the church , Dean sighed resolutely , they could not afford to lose the church .

Dean threw the book , writing supplies and Journal back on the floor .

If they lost this church , they would have to expose theirselves more as they looked for less conspicuous places to stay .

There was no time to focus on packing if they did not intend to move ,they would just have to fight for the church .

Dean picked the gun from the table and ran over to the corner of the wall where the bow rested .

He picked up the satch and checked the amount of remaining arrows before swinging the satch on to his back and running out of the room , he would have to be careful so that he did not run out if arrows at a critical time while thinking that he still had arrows .

He ran down the middle of the pews yet again .

Jade and Blade were simulataneously running down the stairs on both the left and the right sides .

Jade was struggling to put his feet in his boot while holding two pistols and running down the stairs , if this was a movie , Dean would have slapped a do not try this at home over Jade .

Blade was slotting grenades into the numerous pocket holes in his kevlar vest as he jogged down the stairs .

This close to the outside , the sound had grown louder , little vibrations were taking the church by surprise and it was getting harder to not fall prey to dizziness .

There was no way this sounds and tremors was being made by just one golem .

Dean waited a while for Blade to reach the door before he kicked it open .

After kicking it , he waited a while before stepping out , when there was no noise or actions he pulled out the gun and stepped out .

He walked down the stairs as he looked around , searching their premises .

He heard Blade and Jade come up from behind him .

" You both wait here , I will get May ", he said as he left their side and hurried in the opposite way .

Dean did not turn around as he talked , his eyes were constantly scanning around them searching for the exact place this noise was coming from .

Jade stopped Dean with a tug and pushed May's guns into Dean's hand , so that he could Arm May when he came across her .

Dean struggled for a second to balance both of them in one hand and eventually did it after a moment , he readied himself before leaving the front of the church .

He walked ahead to the side of the church , searching for the tree he had seen May sitting on .

He put on the safety of the pistols and pushed them into his vest before he continued searching .

There were more trees than he had anticipated and he had to move slowly between them as he searched , praying that there were no people hiding in the trees , of course , other than May .

Something hit his head as he passed under a tree and Dean immediately lifted the gun , taking off the safety in one click as he positioned it above his head to shoot .

He stopped when he saw that it was just May .

May sat down on one of the branches of the tree , her legs swinging , her dark hair hanging wildly around her shoulders , she was holding a finger to her lips .

She was also barefooted and was wearing her fatigues that were clean and still had the creases from ironing .

She must have taken them off immediately she got here and kept it or something along those lines .

" Get down right this moment ", He told her sternly .

She began to smile instead , getting ready to waste his time and hers .

" There is no time for this May , you need to go in and dress properly ", He told her , hoping that she would just agree without any arguments .

He noticed then that I was only one of her legs that was swinging and only one of her hands that was dancing about her face , the other hand was holding the tree firmly and the other leg was pressed to the tree , she was hesitating because she could not get down from the tree .

Dean sighed , unable to believe why anyone would climb a tree if they knew that they could not get back down.

There was not a lot of time to wonder that so he dropped his gun on the ground and held out his hands for her , he was about to tell her to jump when her weight hit him pushing both of them to the ground .

Dean groaned as he rolled away , sometimes he wondered if she purposely behaved in the opposite way of how people were supposed to behave .

It was the same way Jay did things , at least she could lie and say the reason she did things like that was because of her age , he wondered what May's excuse was

" Sorry , I really thought you would be ready ", She said to him by means of an apology and even patted his back .

Dean did not even have the time or energy to answer her , he simply pointed at the church .

Dean had not fallen in the right way at all , he could feel his organs poking Into his chest as they tried to move around .

his body , he struggled to get up and realized that it was better he got her up and going first and then he could take care of himself .

" Please get off me , get in the church , get properly dressed , with some shoes on and get back here as soon as possible ", He told her , his voice hoarse .

She staggered to her feet and Dean was able to move and soon realized that it was not his organs poking him but her pistols , he brought them out and slid them across the ground at her .

" Here ! " ,He said as he passed them .

" Oh my babies ! ", She exclaimed as she ran forward to where he had pushed them to .

Her agility suddenly returned as she grabbed the pistols , kissed the two of them and ran away , her hair bouncing behind her and her feet avoiding the ground like it had lava on it .

Dean eventually gathered his strength and pushed himself to his feet and grabbed his gun where he had it thrown it earlier .

He looked around and only left when he was satisfied that there was no other person around .

He walked back to the front of the church where he found Blade and Jade waiting .

Blade's rifle was slowly sweeping over their surrounding while Jade shook beneath him , his hands currently occupied by two grenades .

" Anything ? ", He asked even though it was pretty obvious that there was nothing yet .

They both turned to him and moved closer , their eyes still on the road .

Blade was still vigorously watching the road as he explained what he had observed .

" Every couple of seconds , the sounds get closer but then it sounds like it is stuck in a spot for a couple of seconds again ", Blade explained to them , sounding confused himself .

Jade nodded .

" Yeah , Blade is right . It is moving very slowly and it stops every few seconds , I still can not figure out what the rumbling sound is exactly " ,He added , Also sounding quite confused.

Yes , that was the major problem .

Dean had a sinking feeling that golems were not the only Surprises their esteemed Patrons had in store for them .

The rumbling was too focused and measured not to be headed for them .

The church doors opened and May bounded out in her usual costume with her shirt replaced by her kevlar vest alone and her hair In a ponytail.

She pulled out her pistols and pointed them forward .

" What way are we shooting ? ",She yelled .

" Nice of you to finally join us " , Dean replied , by ways of a greeting .

Dean moved , walking out of the church's yard .

" Come on Deanie , a lady always needs more time to pretty up ", She whined , walking behind him .

Dean ignored her and signaled them into formation with Dean at the front center , Blade and Jade to his sides and May pulling up the rear .

With a formation like this , they had to walk in the middle of the street .

The street was quiet save for the occasional ripples caused by the rumbling .

When they reached the end of the block and readied to turn into the next block , another rumbling came at them , this was close , too close .

May left her position behind him and went ahead to peek , she trudged back and whispered .

" It is standing exactly where we are standing on the next street ", She informed them .

Dean nodded , that much was obvious .

May ran ahead again and pressed her body to the wall that separated their vision of the other street , they waited for her instructions .

She peeked into the next street and froze .

" May ? ", Dean called .

The rumbling quieted and amidst the rumbling , Dean heard the gentle whirring that came from the turn of the golem's hands .

It has spotted May and was picking a weapon for her .
