There was silence in the limo. I had to decide whether we fought a war, or peacefully protested. Still silence, the three of them were pushing me to make a decision I couldn't bear. On one hand we could be peaceful, but thousands of us would die running, or we fight a war and even more people would die. Either way was death and destruction of everything we know in the present world, for better or worse. I sat there wondering why spencer would force me to make this decision, he obviously didn't care about the stress he was putting me under, that prick. Allora finally spoke up, "I told you he wouldn't be able to do it." Spencer sighed, "I guess you were right." Spencer looked at Allora then Syd. "I will make this decision. We have to fight, there is no other way." I stared at the person I thought I knew, the once peaceful man now had a fire in him I hadn't seen before. "We will make the humans pay for what they did to us and we will make history doing it." "Our children and grand children will see us as heroes, man." Syd said. Then the limo stopped, "We're here sir." The chauffeur said. Suddenly there was only me and spencer in the vehicle. "Goodbye Harrison." I woke up on my couch, sweating profusely. What the fuck just happened, I thought. My head was burning and I had a massive headache. I went to my kitchen and grabbed some Excedrin, a cup of water, and I wet a towel to put on my forehead. I glanced at my TV as I took the Excedrin and walked over to my couch. The news was on and it showed that a curfew was being put in place because of the influx of Hellbound in the area. They don't even know what is coming, I thought. I shivered at the thought of Seattle being turned into a war zone. My phone buzzed, I picked it up and I saw an alert from my banking app. In my account was eight thousand dollars and a message saying "Thank you for your 'counsel' today, here is payment as promised. Your friend, Spencer." I set my phone down and looked at the TV screen again. What have I gotten myself into?
