We continue to look over the new information we gained from the pier. I go to the target range and decide to practice my gun firing. I shoot at the target and I tear a huge hole in the middle of the target. I put my gun away, not sure what to do. I grab my bat and swing it around. I spin it faster and faster. Andrew keeps dummies with him for practice. They are made of wood and are very thick. I swing around knocking on a couple, then I feel the rage. I swing at a dummie, my face red with anger, that is unkown by me, and I shatter the dummy. A loud crack and shatter echoes through the building. I look behind me and see Andrew watching me. He holds up his sword, ready to fight
"Really?" I say and he smiles a bit.
"You're not the only one who gets to blow off some steam." he says and charges me. I block his sharp blade with my bat and shove him back. He shoots out another sword and I prepare with my bat. I charge him, hitting his multiple blades as I do. All I hear is the clanging of metal and it feels like I'm not in control of my body anymore. I spin the bat stopping his blades. I slide next to him and hit his legs with the bat, knocking him to the ground. I stand over him with a smile. He holds out his hand and I grab, helping him up.
"Good try." I say to him and he looks at me like I offended him. I laugh and I hear my phone ring. I'm shocked. I haven't used my phone in what felt like a long time. I pull out my phone and answer the call. "Hello?" I say a little cautious of who it may be.
"Grant! Help!" I hear what sounds like my mother screaming in the background yelling then she goes silent. "Sorry about that. If you don't stop following us, she will die. And, it will be on your hands." a man says into the phone.
"Who the hell are you?" I say hoping for an answer. He laughs.
"We are the cure." The mysterious man says. The phone hangs up. I hold my phone, wanting to break it. I walk over to the computers as fast as I can. I walk vastly up to Dan and hand him the phone. He looks confused.
"Can you trace the last call made on this phone?" I ask him, my eyes starting to water. He grabs the phone and plugs into the computer. I can't believe they have my mom. My face starts to get red with rage. I want to find these evil people and take them out for good. Dan works quickly on the computer, trying to find the people who called me. My heart starts to beat and I clench my hands into fist. I will kill the first bastard I see there. I will make them pay.
"Got em' " Dan says and I shoot over to his screen. I see a dot on the screen but I don't know exactly where it is located.
"Where is that?" I ask and he looks at me uncomfortably. I look and notice that he wasn't looking at me but at Andrew. He looks like he knows what Dan is going to say.
"The pier." Is all Dan says and they all stand uncomfortable, except for me and Peter. I look at Dan and he seems to almost read my mind. He walks over to an empty part of the room and turns into the dragon. Andrew starts to walk over but I full on sprint and jump onto his back. Andrew looks in surprise as we fly off and he is stuck on the ground having to use Paul. We shoot out of the warehouse and shoot for the pier. He knows exactly where to go and shoots into the building. As we enter, he changes back and I roll on the ground from the fall. I get up and run to stop my motion. I stop running right in front of all the carnage.
I see burn marks, clawing and bullet holes in almost everything. I find a container that was sliced open by what looked like a giant lion. I see these shots of green fluid sitting in the container and I pick one up. I stare at the liquid like I knew what it was already, but I can't remember what. I put it back and continue to walk around. I turn to Dan.
"You sure you got the right place?" I ask as the others show. They look around knowing everything was like they had all been here before.
"I'm very sure." He says and I hear a gun cock behind me. I turn to see my mom standing in the middle of the room, tears streaming down her face. I step forward but I'm stopped short of her.
"You step any closer and her brains are sprawled across you body!" I hear someone yell from out of sight. I look around trying to find the hidden person but they are nowhere to be seen. His voice is deep and harsh, or was that a machine altering it. I look around.
"Why me?! What did I do to you!?" I yell and I hear another gun cock. I look around and now I see the person right behind my mom. She screams at the sound of the gun right next to her head. The person had appeared out of nowhere. He has a dark hood on hiding his face. I wish I could step forward. I hold out my hand and a tear escapes from my eye. I try to push him back but I am unable. I look at them with helplessness on my face. He shoots at us but I stay standing as the others cower away.
"We warned you." He says as he looks away. I scream but I don't hear anything from the gun shot. I see my mother fall and I charge the man, crying holding my bat in my hand. He disappears and I see the gun on the ground. It's an older gun, a revolver, sitting in front of me. I grab the gun and hold it to my head. I can feel the warmth from the last shot on the side of my head. I pull it farther out and look at them all. They start to walk towards me but I cock the gun. They don't say anything from the shock of the gun shot.
"I'm sorry." I say and as I do, I pull the trigger.
