The Alpha Omega.

HOS.

I wake up some time later and slowly look around.
I hear some noise from outside, but I have no idea what it is.
I slowly get up and walk to the door, before slipping out slowly.
I look up and see a crowd of people, all gathered in front of a little stage.
I see Vet standing on a podium, while Sydney sits behind him.
I slowly start moving my way through the crowd, making my way to the front.

People are chanting different things.
"RIVER FOR MAYOR."
"NO MORE VIOLENCE."
The chants are coming from different people.

A kid takes off running to the stage, before starting to climb it.

I take off running and tackle the kid off, before slamming into him and hitting the ground.
I stand up slowly and look around at the silent crowd.

All eyes are on me.

I turn around and look at the crowd, before pulling myself onto the stage.
I shake Vet's waiting hand, as I step up and look down at the crowd.

"Have a nice nap?"
Vet asks with a smirk, as he looks at me.

"A great one."
I say smiling and turn to the crowd.
"Care if I talk?"
I ask and look at him.

"You're kinda the main speaker."
He says laughing as he turns around and sits in a chair.

I turn and step up to the podium, before the crowd erupts again.
"Quiet down."
I say in a reasonable voice.

The crowd keeps roaring and doesn't let up.

"QUIET."
I say raising my voice.

The crowd just gets louder, as if trying to cover the sound of my voice.

"SHUT THE HELL UP!!"
My voice booms I as look down at the crowd.

Silence.

I scan the rows of people and look into their eyes.
"If someone would like to speak, then you raise your hand."
I say and watch the crowd.

A woman raises her hand timidly.

"Yes?"
I say and point to her.

"Why should you be mayor, you're just a kid?"
She asks and looks at me.

"I'm not saying I should.
I wake up from a nap and my names being chanted."
I say back and look back at Vet confused.

Vet steps forward and whispers, "Ronny died in the assault."
He says quietly.

She just nods slightly and steps back into the crowd.

A man raises his hand slowly.

"Yes?"
I say and point to him.

"Why did you kill them all?
You could've let some of them go, so the others know not to come."
The man says with a smirk.
"You didn't have to use violence."
He says as his smirk grows.

"You're absolutely right, I didn't have to use violence.
I could've politely asked them to leave, then smiled as they put a bullet in my brain."
I say back coldly and watch him.

His mouth drops slightly.

"Look, I don't know what kind of bullshit Ronny has been feeding you....
The world is not a good place.
The first day of all this, I had to kill four men.
Because they tried to kill me.
I've had my house broken into, because people are hunting me."
I say and look down at them.
"I don't like living this way.
I'd rather sit with my girlfriend in my room, while listening to music.
But, I have to carry a pistol and worry if the person I'm speaking to, I'll have to kill.
This not the world I want."
I say and look down at him.
