The Bloodline

1945

Even with the heavy metal door locking the room in that bunker, one still can hear the sound of a gunshot before it finally stills…

Some of the men still can’t believe that their supreme leader ends his life that way… But they realize his pride; that he will not let his enemy pride over his captive, celebrating his defeat… He will not let them have that fun.

Still to his men, that makes their heart sank…

But they cannot stay long in grieve, they must hurried themselves, try as best as possible to destroy all documents before they leave the bunker, leaving nothing of note for their enemy who will be coming for sure, and goes to safety to think better move after their ultimate defeat.

But there is one man that still standing in front of that closed door. For him, and a handful of his comrades, it’s not over yet. They are not defeated yet, what happened behind that door is nothing but a strategy.

After the bunker is quiet, he opened the door, and found two dead bodies in there.

Time is precious, so with a little haste, he moves to a dead body of a man, he then opens the briefcase he was carrying, and then took out a test tube from it, and collect the blood that flow from the wound. After securing the tuba, he then took a big syringe, then with cautious, inserted it through the wound. A grayish liquid quickly fills the syringe.

Capping the needle, he then took another syringe and presses the needle to the neck of the man, just below his hairline, deep enough it penetrates the bone, and not long before another grayish liquid fills that large syringe.

Mending his briefcase then stood up straight; raises his right hand, palm stretch out just above his face. He gave the man his final salute before closing leaving the room, closing the door behind him, and hurried himself through a secret passage known only to him and some of his colleague, even the man whose sample he just take didn’t know about the passage.

A hatch on the ground opened a little, a pair of eyes studied the surrounding, and making sure no enemies are to be found. The man then carefully lifts himself out from the ground. Closing back the hatch, and covered it with leaves before he walked still with high cautious to his rendezvous point where a vehicle ready to take him away from his beloved country.
