As soon as they reached their destination and the reinforced truck went through the base's gate, a group of eight armed survivors, two of whom were armored as well and one who played the role of the group's leader, were waiting in front of the vehicle to welcome the newcomers.

Person 1 : " Alex, this might be the last time we see each other, so listen up closely. Always follow the rules of this place and the orders given to you by anyone who is above slave rank, and never question any of them. Do as they tell you to do, and never act like a hero. You'll surely not enjoy what you'll see inside, but always remember... Your own life comes first. "

After that one final piece of advice, the truck's gate opened up, allowing the light of some flashlights attached to some firearms to hit their faces.

Guard : " * Aim a firearm at them * Get your asses out here.... Now! "

The second and third prisoners did as the guard ordered and jumped out of the truck, leaving their partner behind with Alex. 

Person 1 : " May our paths cross each other again, child..... If we both lived till that day. " 

Alex : " Hopefully, one day... We'll. "

Guard : " Are you two waiting for an invitation or what? GET OUT! "

They quickly followed the other two before things worsened. They were ordered to line up in front of the group's leader after they exited the truck.

Group's leader : " Is that all?! Four prisoners?! Where're the others ? "

Truck's driver : " Let's just say that we had to deal with the naughty ones... You know. "

Group's leader : " ..... Hmm!..... I see.... Well, enough wasting time. You, you, and you * Pointing at the three prisoners * You three are old pieces of trash. You'll be taken to the western side with other slaves like you.  "

Three of the guards took the three prisoners to the western banker, leaving Alex behind for his unknown fate.

Group leader : " What about you? * Inspecting Alex * You're a young one... Healthy and clean.... What's your name, kid? "

  Alex [ A bit scared ] : " Al-Alex... Sir. "

Upon hearing his name, the leader's eyes widened.

Group leader : " Alex!  "

Alex [ A bit scared ] : " Yes.... s-sir? "

Group leader : " Perhaps you're the one that the white skull has told us about. "

Alex [ Shocked ] : " WHOOOO!!! "

Out of shock at who he had just mentioned, Alex yelled in disbelief, performing an act of disrespect that the causer here usually gets punished with death for it.

Guard [ Furious ]  : " Why you little!!! "

One of the guards was about to hit Alex's face with the buttstock of his firearm to teach him a lesson, as he intended, only for him to get a punch in the face instead by his leader.
