Escaping the Foundation

Chapter 50

Marzia.

"Jay!" I shouted as I approached him in the entrance.

He looked back at me and said, "Marzia, got in the west. Mark is in the east. I'll wait for the others here."

I saw him bleeding that's why I hold both of his arms and asked "Are you okay? You need some medicines for this."

He gulped and replied "No no no, I still can fight. Go and meet Felix. We are running out of time."

I nodded and replied "Okay, just be careful."

Then I ran to the west and didn't looked behind. Yes, I'm desperate to see this not real Felix. I run faster as I am thinking about him. Then there it goes, I stepped in the elevator and hit the 5th floor. When the door opened, I saw the person I was looking  for.

"Marzia?" Fake Felix asked as he tried to stop his tears flow down from his eye.

I left the elevator and stand directly in the front of him. I lowered my gun completely to the point that it was now pointing the ground. I felt mixed emotions; relief, anger, sadness and sorrow. I couldn't speak and I couldn't even open my mouth to say something.

I let my tears drop from my eyes as I slap him very hard. His eyes widened as he looked at me with confusion.

"WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!?" I asked as loudly as I can. My voice isn't the same as before, it is full of anger and desperation.

"Marzia... you know?" He asked while letting his tears out. He tried to hold my hand but I refused to.

I furrowed my eyes and questioned him "You don't want me to know?"

"No, it's not like that." He said trying to grab my hand but I move it away.

"What did you do to him?"

"Marzia... let me-" I interrupt him by asking more questions.

"Why did you do this?"

"Marzia just please." He tried to hold me again but I'm continue rescuing it.

"You lied to us! You trick us!"

"I know its very selfish idea bu-"

"I DON'T NEED YOUR EXPLAINATION! I JUST NEED MY HUSBAND BACK!" That made him stayed silent and looked down.

He gulped and said "Please... let me explain first."

"I told you I don't need that." I said in a cold tone.

"Marzia, please-" I pointed my gun to him.

I was ready to pull the trigger but I can't. He's the only way that I could bring my husband back. He was my only hope. I need Felix back. I need him.

"How long have been here?" I asked to him, still pointing my gun at his head.

"4 years" he replied in a sad tone.

"4 YEARS!? YOU'VE BEEN MANIPULATING ME FOR 4 YEARS!?" I said while more tears drop down from my eyes.

He looked up at me and replied "Marzia it's not like that I-"

"If not manipulating me!? What the hell do you call it? Pretending? You've been here for 4 years. Aren't you guilty about it? Go back and bring back my husband!" I ordered to him as my tears slowly running down.

He nodded and answered, "I will, I promise I will."

"Marzia." The speaker turns on that's what it said.

I looked up while still pointing the gun at him and the speaker continued, "It's me, Jay."

I sighed and Felix asked me, "You are all with Jay?"

I gulped and lowered the gun, "He's from your universe too?"

"Yes, he was. He's my former comrade." He answered me.

"Marzia if you're hearing this and you are with Felix, you probably know that I'm not from here." The speaker said then it continued, "Marzia I'm sorry, I couldn't save your memory."

"What is he talking about?" I asked to Felix.

Felix looked down and stayed silent. I grabbed him and asked once again but louder, "What IS HE TALKING ABOUT?"

"I failed you, Mark. I'm so sorry. I failed to save you and now, I don't know. You have chosen that path, me and Felix can't force not to. Mark, you don't know what we've been through in that hell. See you in the other side." He said and it sounds like he was crying. The speaker turns off.

I sighed and asked once again, "WHAT DOES HE MEAN?"

Then a bright beam of light hit my eyes. I fall down and all I saw was light.
