Death Period

Chapter 29

They follow the man into the building. They get back to the room from which they came from.

"What's going on, have you guys changed your mind?"

"No, we are here cause of another reason." Ned answers.

"For what reason are you here else?"

"We want to talk to you about the other world."

"The other world?" The man immediately goes to the door and closes it.

"Why did you close the door?" Rose asks.

"It has not to concern anybody what we are discussing in this room."

"Does that mean you are going to help us?" Ned asks.

"Not so fast." The man starts laughing. He makes a stop move with his hand.

"At first I don't know what it is about and at second you are walking in here just like that and then you desire us to do you such a favor, after you guys refused to play our guinea pigs. That is absolutely impudent. Get them outta here..."

"No, you don't understand that. The future of all of us depends from that. As far as we got said this."

"I don't get it. What do you mean by saying the future of all of us depends from that?"

"The undeads will reach the other world one time and we have to reach the other world before they do. So we can warn the people there. The problem we don't know the location of the other world."

"Where do you have this information from?"

"It is a long story, you won't believe it." Mike tells.

"If you want us to help you, You should tell us everything."

"An old, wise woman told us that." Rafael says.

"Oh good to know. So you guys initially asked us if we can help you and my answer to that is no."

"Oh, that was a good joke. I think you will help us." Rafael grins. His blue eyes are shining and his whole expression looks mysterious.

"What? We know it better. Our answer is clearly no." The man mistrustfully looks Rafael into his eyes.

"Oh one thing you weren't told. It's your fault, that the apocalypse started."

The men begin to stare at each other. Then they stare back at Rafael.

"Surprised? We know by now, that everything that is going on here is not right. I mean you wanted to develop a remedy that would make us immune against every decease, that one can imagine and the whole experiment went wrong. Now you set a huge ball rolling with that."

"You are telling us something, that you can't proof."

"We are six witnesses by the way, but we needn't to proof anything. To whom should we proof that either? If that here is namely over, uhhm let's suppose the whole apocalypse is over somehow. So whose pants will be on fire, yours or ours? I think you guys already know the answer don't you."

"That is right." Tara agrees.

"There will be press conferences and interviews and so on. You will look stupid and you will have to explain everyone how it came to such a big desaster."

One of the men starts to swallow. He looks to the ground.

"Okay we will help you. You were very convincing."

"And if you are planning to lure us into a trap forget it. We already have some experience with devious persons." Rafael points at his sword.

"We got it. You can put away your sword. We can help you guys. We are going to supply you with some money. The rest you have to manage by your own."
