Kalel continued to test how his skill worked. It seems that he could open his space pocket at will, it always appeared near his right hand and he could change the size of the opening if he concentrate enough, it was kind of like shitting, you could open and close to chose the size of the opening, gross comparison but kinda true.
He took the left stair and went down one floor and began shouting like he did earlier. No answer.
He went near the first door and knocked strongly.
" I'm going to open the door if you don't want me to, you need to say it." kalel said.
He used his crowbar and opened the doors. No trace of a monster in the living room.
"Tsss"
Kalel heard something coming from the second bedroom.
" Hello, I come in peace. If you want me to leave just say it or I will think that you're one of those monsters." He shouted.
After a moment, some noise came from there. Kalel prepared himself in case of a fight. No hesitation could be seen in his eyes anymore, something darker was lurking under the surface.
" Easy dude, it is just me and my sister". Said a young male voice.
2 teenagers emerged of the bedroom. A fat brown haired guy and a pretty short brunette who seemed younger. To be honest they didn't seem to be brother and sister or the guy got the bad genes.
" Yé, you could have answer when I asked. Anyway, have a good day." He signaled before to leave.
" Wait, stop, you broke our door, you need to fix it before to leave !" said Fatty.
" Yes, I did and no I don't have the time for that, I got things to do, kids so goodbye." Kalel said while leaving the flat.
He was going in direction of the next flat. The fat guy followed him and grabbed him by his shoulders. Kalel reacted violently and pushed him back and pointed his weapon to him.
" Don't fucking touch me idiot or I'm going to make you regret it !"
Kalel was furious, his violent tendency was coming back fast under pression.
"Please, don't hit him. He is just afraid with all this situation. We're sorry we should have answer. My name is Mia, I'm 15 and he is Anthon, 16." Said softly the girl while protecting her idiot brother.
Kalel calmed himself.
" Yé, don't do that again kid, the world is not the same as yesterday." Kalel said
" We saw that on the news and internet, the situation is worsening hours by hours. In this time of hardship, we should help each others. What is your name, sir ?" she asked him.
Her brother stayed silent and seemed to let his sister take the lead.
" I'm kalel, I live in the 4th floor. Kid, you should take some supplies and prepared yourself to run away to go to the camps. I'm looting the empty flats and will leave tomorrow." Kalel added to repay them for breaking their door.
" Yes, perhaps we could accompany you. Our mother didn't come back home yesterday, we can't contact her, and we know that the safe zone is in the Ramier island. The military and police are protecting this zone from the monster, they urged people to join them." She gently pleaded.
" You can follow me if you want to, but I won't guarantee your safety and you will need to work. I don't want lazy people with me. " he said back
" There is no problem, sir. Let us take some things and we will follow you. "
She took her brother and they went inside their flat for 10 min, they came back with 2 full backpacks, a kitchen knife and bat for the brother.
" We're ready." She said enthusiastically.
Mia was happy, she was glad to find someone stronger with who to go the safe zone. She loved her brother but he wasn't a male alpha's incarnation. Anthon was always been a fragile dreamer more interested by watching anime than living his life especially since their father's death in an accident a few years ago.
***
Mia and Anthon weren't players like himself. They were pretty shocked when he put what he took on the 3rd floor in his space pocket. He didn't particularly trust them, but he didn't want to lose time by hiding his ability.
When they went to the 2nd floor, they heard people screaming and fighting.
" Run, run to the upper floor, these things are burning if you touch them." Said a manly voice.
A group of 15 people came to their direction. Kalel knew where the other people went, they must have gone down and meet up with the other neighbors at the front door but something prevent them from leaving. And it was coming to them too now.
Kalel told the siblings to get back to the 3rd floor following the other escapees. He went down to go see what the menace was.
They were hundreds of them everywhere. They crawled pretty fast to them. These monsters looked like some kind of multicolored snails. They were mostly red and green ones and a few black ones. After taking a mental picture of the scene, Kalel followed the others to the upper floor. They were barricading the floor with stuffs from the open flats. He needed more information on those things to create a plan to leave alive.
