Harry is acting strange since that incident. He keeps us away from the soldiers in every way he possibly can. I wonder what he is thinking and is he hiding from us. Not only Harry, every single being in this entire place is suspicious, excluding the civilians.

The doctors take the sick people inside that room and once they are gone, they are gone forever. We don't see them again. I started getting this eerie feeling here. I don't feel safe.

Just when I was starting to feel antsy, someone started pounding at the door like he or she was going to break it any second if I don't open it soon. I walked to the door and reached my hand towards the door knob and opened it. Revealing that it was a few policemen.

"You and your friends are asked to come to the main hall. It's an emergency meeting." Said one of the policemen in a voice like a foghorn. "Don't be late." He said before leaving with the others.

I closed and walked back through the small corridor to tell everyone. Thankfully all of us were in the same room. Otherwise, i had to go to every room to inform them.Oh, and if you are wondering, we have to share the same room due to the overcrowded rooms. It's hard but we manage.

Just when I was about to tell everyone, i noticed a frown on Harry's face like everytime I see when a policeman or a soldier is near me or anyone of us. I thought he wouldn't speak but he did.

"Why were they here?" He asked in a flat voice. Still with the frown on his face.

"Look who finally spoke." Lori said to Harry.

I thought harry would reply her back but he didn't. He gave Lori an angry look and Lori shifted her face towards the window to avoid him.

"So, why were they here?" He asked, again with same flat voice.

"They asked all of us to meet them in the main hall. They said it's an emergency meeting." I replied to him.

Harry's frown change into a something more like a tensed expression in a second. His mood swings are unpredictable.

"Why do you suddenly look so tensed?" Glenn asked.

He looked at him and looked away but not even a single word slipped out of his mouth.

"What's wrong Harold? I have never seen you like this before." Said Harlan.

He looked at Harlan and sighed. I knew he would say something now because he never ignores something that Harlan said.

"It's just, i don't trust them." He said.

"Well, neither of us trust them harry." Emma said.

"They are creepy." Carl said.

I was shocked when Emma and Carl spoke. It's been so long they haven't spoken to us except for some small replies. But what shocked me more is what Harry told everyone after this.

"They are not just creepy. I have been observing them for a while now. I'm sure all of you noticed that they are hiding something." He said and we all nooded in agreement.

"I think I know what they are hiding. Maybe not the whole thing, but a little." He said with a flat voice and no emotion on his face.

"How do you know?" My brothers asked together.

"Wait, I'm telling. First of all, let me clear why I have been acting like this." He paused to breathe and continued. "When we first came here with you wounded, they treated you well, but after that, they have their eyes on you Emily." My eyes widened in shock of what he said.

"All eyes on me?" I ask.

"What do you mean Harry?" Aaron asked.

"When you were here unconscious, i was about to enter your room to see you but i stopped. I saw two doctors beside you with soldiers with guns in their hand and one of them hand an injection. Then he injected something in your hand." He said.
