Hell on Earth

Act 1. Chapter 7

Moldin: It is also unrealistic!

John (smiling): You can. If our community continues to be populated by incompetents , sooner or later we will be destroyed by bandits. So will you choose to leave yourself or lose your loved ones at the hands of looters?

.....

[Evening, Ray never found a job where he could benefit society, because he 's not good for anything]

*Almost the entire group sat in the room of Ray , who was already packing up and about to leave, but when Laers and CJ came in , everyone suddenly jumped*

Laers(adjusting his rucksack): Well, shall we go?

CJ (smiling): We have everything we need, enough for a couple of days

T-Ray (understandingly): One briefcase would be enough for me...

CJ (smiling): Who said it was for you?

T-Ray: How is that?

Laers(nodding): So that's it, we're going with you , you don't have to say anything , we've already decided... And not just us

*Suddenly, CJ brought in four more briefcases. One took Phoenix a second Soul, one was for Varakushka and Victorika, and the latter took Alba*

Laers: The others will stay here, and Moldin will contact us every night,so we 'll know how things are going .

Phoenix(grinning): Yeah, we wanted to tell you first, but we'd rather have a surprise. This is our gift to you for your last birthday

*T-Ray can't even say a word, his eyes were filled with tears that were already running down his cheeks. Friends gathered together with him, because they knew that one Ray would die. The group took their belongings and followed their friend with calm faces, while the leaders were already standing on the street, who were surprised that several people were leaving*

John (smiling): Mm, noble... But that 's not all, where is the rest of your group?

Laers (seriously): it's better for them if they stay here. For some it's safer here

John(grinning): Is that why Alba is coming with you? Yes, I know her name, I remember everyone's names, and I know who and what they are. And I'll say this , Alba won't last long if she's left alone

Phoenix(nodding): Yes-Yes-Yes, we understand you, can we go now?

Otto: Bill will take you to the gate

Soul (smiling): Good luck to the people in your community, I think we will meet again

John (grinning): I hope so

*Bill saw them leave and stopped with his brother at the gate, he shook his hand and nodded at the last*

Bill (whispers): I'll try to get the boys to take you back

*After that, the company left Bacon and went to an unknown destination. Looking around, Alba was shocked that in just a week, a lot of buildings had been destroyed, and even a helicopter was stuck somewhere. The party stopped at one of these buildings and began to examine their packs. There were clearly not enough weapons for everyone. A gun for only three people. Two took Laers and CJ, knowing that they would not miss. T-Ray and Phoenix looked at the last "trunk" and then at each other*

T-Ray (upset): Phoenix, I'm sorry, but..

Phoenix (interrupting): Take It , I understand your concerns, everything is fine

Soul (slapping his friend on the shoulder ): Come on , Phoenix, you can handle the bat

Phoenix( smiling sadly): Yeah... May be

*After a couple of seconds, the team went in the other direction from their place and came across a warehouse. Another warehouse? It 's also locked from the inside... Saul looked at the entrance and nodded to the others , then the Varakushka tapped on the wall, but there was no sound inside the warehouse. The men eagerly opened the door and went inside. Alba took out a flashlight and began to shine around everyone . There were boxes with different names on the shelves. And the last floor was completely packed the boxes entitled >*

Soul: Is this the Legion we were told about?

CJ(looking around ): Maybe Yes, maybe not

Varakushka(looking at the dried pool of blood ): Apparently, someone has already been here before us

Laers: Ok, I closed the door so that we could go out tomorrow, have you looked around?

Victorika (curve): Maybe... Maybe it's supplies they stole from other groups

T-Ray (sincerely): No, I don't think so. Bill is one of the leaders, he wouldn't do that .

Phoenix (wearily): In short, let's discuss everything tomorrow? You can sleep here

*On Sanchez's advice , everyone found a comfortable place to sleep and lay down, but not everything is so simple... In the middle of the night, several people approached the warehouse, whispering to each other. Phoenix, who was awake at that moment, heard the "whispering" and woke the others. The boys quickly hid in the right places and waited. Several men entered the warehouse and spoke quietly about something. One of them looked very familiar to Ray*

Mole:Jamie, are you sure you've counted all the boxes?

Jamie (nodding): Yes, we took all the supplies from the Academy. So does the Wall-Street community .

Mole(sitting down on a chair): Yeah,well? How do you feel?

Guard: What are you talking about ?

Mole: Well, it wasn't so easy to destroy the Legion in a couple of hours, was it? I didn't think they would fight

Jamie (upset): This is the first time I've killed someone to survive myself

Mole(smiling): Come on, John said it himself, if they resist, shoot to kill.

*Hearing this, everyone tensed, and Alba accidentally dropped a jar of canned food. The men of Bacon got up and immediately armed themselves, without wasting a second, 5 people headed towards the girl. The mole shone a flashlight and noticed her, and Alba was scared when he raised his weapon at her, but the Phoenix saved the girl. He pushed the Mole off his feet and started hitting him in the face, while the other members of the group got out and started hitting the "opponents". Laers lightly knocked out one of the offenders, and CJ knocked out the second. Ray used a metal club to hit another man and split his brow. The girls kicked the fourth, but suddenly there was a shot somewhere in the distance of the warehouse, and then a loud fall of the body to the floor. The whole group rushed to the sounds and went behind the shelves saw a dead Mole with a knife in his throat. Phoenix stood over him and held his stomach, but when the blood started to run down his t-shirt, the guy fell to his knees, and then to the floor. Alba and Soul immediately jumped to the wounded man and tried to clamp the wound. Vika and Nastya ran to his things to find the medical kit, and the guys opened the boxes, hoping to find at least some drugs(?)*

Phoenix (whisper): Bro... You were right when you said I wouldn 't live long... Sorry.. Alba... Take care of each other

Soul (holding back tears ): No, no, be patient, we will help you. We'll find a bandage or even a first aid kit, patch you up , and you'll be as good as new. You have to! You promised me that you would always be there for me ... I'll cover for you if anything happens ... I should have been ...

Alba (interrupting sadly): Soul...

*The guys found a first aid kit , but when the happy ones came running to them, the smiles quickly disappeared. Soul sat next to the body of his friend, who had just stopped breathing, and Alba sat next to the heartbroken Soul. Lars took off his hood, and CJ dropped her head down. T-Ray walked over to the dead man and closed his eyes*

T-Ray (serious tone): Thank you. For everything...

Varakushka(viciously): They will get what they deserve.

Laers: Who are they? Community? Are you going to go to war on the entire community?

Varakushka: If this concerns revenge for my friends, then Yes. You heard what he said, they destroyed the group and robbed them, they are no different from all the thugs

T-Ray(shocked): I don't believe Bill knew about this

Victorika: Maybe I didn't know... They were only talking about John, could he be the only one responsible for all this?

T-Ray(rising to his feet): Yes... We need to bury him...

Soul (emphatically): No.. Not when. Now the infected will come here, or worse... People. We have to go... Time to go back

Alba (surprised): Soul?

Soul (sternly): I need to talk to John...
