The Living and The Undead[DISCONTINUED]

Chapter 10-Some hope

Chernoa's pov

The base was filled with an awkward silence, and you could probably cut the tension with a knife.  Xander and Chyann were staring- no, glaring at each other more like, while Rie was throwing concerned glances at me occasionally which I returned with a slight nod. And Lionel was staring in blank space.

Lionel had already updated me on the current situation. "Erm guys, why are we just sitting around? Shouldn't we be like forming a plan to save Wayne or something?" I decided to say something that would benefit us. 

"This is not our problem. We are having a perfect life alone here when you three decided to butt in." Xander replied coldly.

"Oh yea? Well guess who was the one who offered help first! If you think we're so much of a burden, then why help us in the first place?!" Chyann retorted. Xander did not reply, which made Chyann grin smugly at me. I threw Lionel a look and mouth, Help me.

"Look. I know you guys aren't cruel people. But our friend has been kidnaped. This is serious. Please help us." Lionel said. "Well what kind of team are you then? Losing your teammates so easily. How pathetic." Xander replied again, evidently mocking us.

Calm down chernoa, calm down. I said to myself. 

Before I could say anything, Chyann had snapped angrily, "At least we aren't cowards like you who hide in a stupid cave all day long doing nothing. At least we are trying to find the cure and benefit mankind. What about you? And losing a teammate doesn't mean we suck because ALL OF US WERE FUCKING KNOCKED OUT! So if you have nothing nice to say, shut the fuck up." I gave a thumb's up to the girl. 

Xander was rendered speechless, allowing Chyann and Lionel to smirk. "Okay now let's find a way to find Jacckie so we can track Wayne down..." I started. "Jacckie? Did you say Jacckie?" Xander suddenly spoke up. "Thought you weren't interested?" Lionel saracasticslly said. Xander ignored him and looked at me.

"Yes. Jacckie. Her. I will accept your offer to help you find your friend named Wayne." Xander folded his arms. "Hah! As if we need  your help-umf." I slammed my hand onto Chyann's face, hurriedly shutting her up.

"He probably knows stuff about Jacckie and he can help us find Wayne. So keep quiet, mate." I quickly explained to Chyann and Lionel who were scowling, obviously unhappy about getting help from someone they did not like. "So what can you help us about?" Lionel asked, still suspicious whether Xander could actually help.

Xander nodded to Rie, who walked somewhere and returned with a yellow piece of paper.

Xander grinned, "My Father left this map to me." 

We exchanged glances and shrugged. What could possibly go wrong?

Wayne's pov

I sat in the cage unhappily. What did they think I was? An animal? Damn it. "Hey! Get me out of here! I command you to release me!" I shouted, rattling the cage furiously. "Shut up!" Alden screamed at me. 

"Did you ever wonder why you have no friends?" I was bored so I decided to strike up a conversation with my kidnapper. "Would you just keep quiet?!" Alden was slowly getting pissed off, and I was enjoying it. 

"Well you must be quite lame to be a normal lackey huh?" I grinned. The boy grabbed the gun that was lying on the table and pointed it at me. "Well you must be so stupid to not know how to keep your mouth shut!" Alden roared, clicking on the gun, close to pulling the trigger. 

Oh crap I really should keep my mouth shut next time. 

"Hey, Alden. Don't kill him we need him." Jacckie appeared behind, stopping the boy, making him glare at me. "Yea, Alden. You need me. Go listen to her like the dog you are." I sneered, knowing they could do nothing. "I'm killing him the moment master agrees!" 

I waved a hand nonchalantly. "Wait. Incoming call from master." Jacckie shushed Alden and me. 

"Mmhm. Yes. Really? That's...great. Yes. We got it." Jacckie looked at me, with sadness in her eyes? No I was mistaken. Darkness replaced the sadness. "What is it?" Alden asked.

"Master found them."
