Light And Death.

Chapter Four: Dead

I was so shocked I didn’t know what to think next, where could Zack be? I wondered if he had run straight into the hideout, but if he had, I would have seen him running or at least heard him running, it looked like he had simply just disappeared. I thought to myself, had he been kidn*pped, the members of the DeathSquad are known to be ruthless and operate with the highest level of stealth, it was not impossible they had kidn*pped him, but if they had, why would they leave me alone here, none of this made any sense, and the mere fact that I didn’t know what to do next made me feel so miserable. I knew he could be in grave danger, and his powers are no match for that of some other meta humans, it wasn’t impossible to kill him either, after all, his father had the same exact power as him and his father was killed on a mission for the league of light by as rumours go, Elizabeth’s mom, you can’t really blame Zack for not liking Elizabeth, her mother killed his father and widowed his mother who passed away five years later after battling depression and addiction. Zack could very well be killed at any time, especially if he was kidn*pped, and his power was nothing when you compared it to elites like my dad or Elizabeth’s mom who killed Zack’s father, who was rumoured to be a thousand times stronger than Zack. It is fact that the only thing that makes humans equal is death, humans are not in any way equal when you talk about things other than death. Elizabeth sent a distress call to me almost ten minutes after Zack was taken or left me alone, apparently, they were attacked by my dad and her mom, who severely injured her and Jordan but killed Maria, I screamed immediately she told me Maria was killed, Maria was a member of team Beta, Zack’s team, she had the ability to control any form of metal, be it iron, gold, aluminium, anything metallic at all, I wonder how she had been killed, she was very powerful and could have given my dad a tough fight, but then, my dad was super human and over powered, you could say the same for Elizabeth’s mom too, but why had they killed only Maria, why had they left Elizabeth and Jordan to live, something didn’t feel right. Elizabeth then told me what made it all make sense to me, she told me it appears I was right, this was truly a trap, a trap to get me into the DeathSquad, the DeathSquad had no uses for whoever remained. I was really worried about all this when I remembered Elizabeth said nothing about Anjola, you see, Anjola was the other member of team Beta, she had a rather hax ability, she could turn herself invisible and whenever she did, you couldn’t touch her, it’s almost like she’s no longer in existence but then, she could touch you, she could harm you, she could m**m you, she could kill you but she can’t hold this state for very long, a maximum of thirty seconds and a resting period of at least ten seconds, that was her ability, it was something that was too useful in battle. Elizabeth was about to give me the shock of my life tho, she told me Anjola was supposed to be with me, she had left to join I and Zack almost ten minutes after we left, my body went numb, I knew something was wrong with her, she was probably already dead or hostage by now and just as I was contemplating what had happened to her, something round came straight at me, it was moving at a speed of about ninety miles an hour, I caught it but due to its speed, it pushed me a few centimetres back, I stopped and looked at what it was and my face went green, I was about to puke, in my hands was Anjola’s head, she didn’t look too pale, she’d probably just died, I saw the look on her face and I realised she was scared when she was killed, I could see pain and fear written over her face, I thought to myself, that can’t be good, and it most certainly couldn’t be. I looked around and I found nothing and nowhere the head could have come from, I knew straight up, the DeathSquad were messing with us and killing us one by one, the same psychopathic behaviour that earned them the name DeathSquad. I told Elizabeth to get out of here and fly out with Jordan, she could call for backup or something but then, she told me my dad had ripped the entire jet and all its equipment to shreds. He left her with only the walkie talkie she was conversing to me with, I thought to myself, that sounds very much like the butcher. I didn’t want to die with regrets, so, I said to Elizabeth, “I’ve always wanted a woman like you in my life” but she ruined it all by saying I hope you find her, my reply was rather classic, I said to her, “You’re seriously mad and you have no one to tell you”. I told her to walk 10 degrees west from the point we landed and join up with me at super speed, she should also bring Jordan, we were going into the DeathSquad’s lair, if they wanted war, we were going to give it to them, we were going to serve them ounces of pain, although, something didn’t feel right to me, why were we alive and all the members of team Beta were either dead or missing, something just didn’t feel right. In the end, the only thing we’ll regret are the chances we didn’t take. Elizabeth joined me soon enough and I got straight to the part where I tell her my plan to survive this, the plan was simply to pledge allegiance to the DeathSquad at least till reinforcements come from the league of light. She brought with herself the good thing and the bad, the good thing being that Jordan had just overused his pwers, he wasn’t really injured and neither was she, the bad part was that Elizabeth cried so hard when she realized Zack was either dead or taken, I wiped the tears away from her eyes but I could never wipe the pain away from her heart. I had no real reason to believe this was going to work but I needed to at least do something and as things look now, it appears like we are all rather DEAD……………….
