Another Dimension

Chapter 8-City

Carol suggested a place to sit, and she pointed towards where Gabriel and Lucas were seated. Then she replied, "Oh great we can just join them since they already have some vacant seats." I was looking in the direction where she was pointing and I don't really want to sit there because of some certain reason, of course. But at the same time, I feel like I should start getting used to this. I replied, "Ok, let's go."

I was having a lot of bad feelings and a war going inside my stomach. It's probably because of hunger and the thought of the food that I am going to eat.

As we reached the table, Carol asked "Would you mind us dining along with y'all?" Lucas looked at me and give me a sly smirk and I turned my head towards Carol. Then Gabriel replied, "Sure, you can."

We sat. There was a plate and a medium-size glass on the table already without any food. Both Lucas and Gabriel's plates had some food. But the food they had was what any regular person would eat. Lucas had a grilled cheese sandwich on his plate and Gabriel was enjoying his Fish n Chips.

I gave my most murderous stare towards Carol. Carol saw that and covered her mouth and giggled in silence.

"You are supposed to imagine the food and drink you want when you look at the plate and the glass, then the food will appear.", Lucas said when he noticed my murderous stare that I was giving it to Carol.

"What?!, how in the world will that happen. It doesn't even make any sense. Am I in some sort of Percy Jackson world", I replied expressing my confusion. Lucas replied, "Nope, you're in another dimension." I rolled my eyes. "This isn't another joke, is it?", I asked giving a sharp stare towards Carol who already started eating her sushi. Carol confirmed my question with a small chuckle, "No dear, this time for real." I gave a slight nod.

I looked at the plate and imagined a burger and some orange juice to go along with. Then the food appeared on the plate and the drink appeared on the glass.

I was shocked.

We finished eating our lunch and my camp tour continued.

The next place we (as in Me and Carol) went was the camp health base. The place was situated a bit towards the training ground. It was another cabin but a bit bigger than the main cabin. There was a big red cross on top of the entrance.

We went inside. I saw Elijah busy with one patient, he was wrapping a patient's wound with that wrap that you find in every clinic.

I asked Carol, "From where did he get that wrap from?" Carol replied, "From the city." Another shocking thing to hear, I asked again to confirm that I must've heard her, "From the where again?" Carol looked at me and said it to me like how a person to kids who didn't understand, "From-the-city. You know, where there are tall buildings, buses, and many other things." I was speechless. I cannot believe it. So many things to consume into my head. I asked, "Is this another joke?" Carol raised her hand put on a chest like how a soldier would put when he gives an oath that he would do anything to save his country, "Nope, I am dead serious."

The things that I started hearing after this were another, I struggled a lot to take in. Carol said that there was a city which is located very far away from the camp. The reason why they held this camp was to separate ourselves from the original civilians of this world. Because a long time ago when some people came into this dimension, they tried to settle along with the civilians of this world, but the civilians didn't treat them properly because they were afraid of the people who live in this dimension would get transported to our dimension. So, that's when they build a camp very far away somewhere the civilians will never be able to find. Though this camp is in the middle of nowhere there is a secret entrance that connects this place and the civilians of this world. Which the civilians are not aware of. But only the camp member knows the path so that they can transport the equipment that is required for the camp. Some of the people from here decided to leave camp and live along with the civilians by changing their identity. Those people also help the camp when they want to transport equipment to the camp.

After the camp tour, I went to Derek.

I walked inside to go to the room where Carol had once taken me in when I first came here. I was about to knock on the door to ask permission whether I can come in but instead, I didn't as soon as I heard him talking about me.
