Ruslan opens his eyes, his head hurts and he feels worse than any hangover he ever had.
It didn't take long for him to realize that he wasn't in the place he remembered being before he passed out, but he didn't know exactly where, except that he had a bad feeling.
Samy <{ papa! You woke up! }>
R << Samy...? >>
Samy <{ hi! }>
R << hello, um... where... where are we? >>
Samy <{ where the zontani gi is! }>
R << really? And how did we get there? >>
Samy <{ they kidnapped you }>
R << what!? >>
Samy <{ but now you're safe! }>
R << okay... >>
Ruslan got up wobbly from the metal chair in which he had woken up and walked with hesitant balance towards the exit door, and then stopped to observe what was in front of him.
R << um, Samy? >>
Samy <{ yes? }>
R << why are there three soldiers passed out in the corridor? >>
He asks as he leans out of the entrance and looks at the three men sprawled motionless on the ground.
Samy <{ oh- Oli took them under }>
R << who? >>
Samy <{ my friends who died a few thousand years ago and who united in a creature composed of what remains of their bodies }>
R << what!? >>
Samy <{ an oil demon }>
R << oh ok >>
Ruslan is slightly confused about everything that's going on but still has to admit that, since he met Samy, strange things are the normality...
Samy <{ come on papa, let's go! }>
The two walked silently in the corridors, Ruslan was careful for any eventuality, while Samy was quite calm and walked calmly through the corridors.
He was sure that most of the guards were on Oli's tail and that they would therefore have no problems.
But naturally...
<< HEY! you two! Stop where you are! >>
Samy <{ oh! come on! Again! don't you have nothing else to do but piss us off! }>
Ruslan quickly picked up Samy and started running as fast as possible, for someone who has just woken up from a heavy dose of sleeping pills.
They rounded a corner and the group of ten soldiers were confused when they saw neither of them.
They began to advance slowly in the deserted corridor, all the doors open but only darkness can be seen inside.
One hears movement in one of the rooms, approaches the entrance slowly trying to see what was in the dark.
The other soldiers hear a muffled cry before turning to see that one of their own is missing. They approach a door from which light rustles come.
