Chapter 8 - 8. The Mummy.

"Next,"

Sir are you scaling or waiting. The voice sounded hard and cold. Ok... Okay, I'm coming. You are going to need a larger scale though. Col said giggling and swagging to the front table.

"Sir, please place your hands on the scanner," the man said looking Col in the eyes.

****

Soon, the meter went wild to the brim, and everyone wore a sudden look of worship, but their look quickly changed to that of pity and confused state. Huh, and you said that I needed a larger scale. Well, to bad you don't look that strong. You are a 1.6 common tier. The man said making fun of Col. You are a jerk, do you know that? The man sneered. Col didn't care what the man said, all he did was look at the man's face, smiled and walked away feeling proud.

In the police department, a white tall, black hair gentle man with glasses on was stamping his feet to the ground and mummring to himself. He was pretty shaken up. He kept talking about how there where zombies roaming at night in the subway. He was a security guard at the subway for six years and one day he was told to take a leave, some thought he was crazy, until they appeared in his office about a year after.

"Sir, you can come see me now." Detective Conan said leading Mr. Pinto to his office.

So, you are the Mr. Pinto, right? Detective Conan asked emphasising on on the word "the" and drinking his coffee.

So Sir Pinto, what complaint do you have for me today. Detective, I'm telling you that zombies are real and so has the numbers risen too. And, Mr Pinto let out a sigh, and I got prove this time, look... Please take a look at it.

Mr. Pinto said sweating and shaking hoping to be of an assistant to the man sitting in front of him who was looking at him as if he were a psychopath. Please just take it, stretching his phone to the cop.

After watching the video, he was filled with shock and fear. He had only seen one person who could control the dead but this was different. "Combien?" The detective asked placing his hands on his head. How many are they? The detective asked the man. He was still shaking and frightened by what he saw.

"Je vais ... I'm going to... The detective said breathing slowly. I'm going to need you to sign some papers Sir, and ... Please stay away from there.

Merci! Mr. Pinto said.

Back in the streets, Jason and Col met up with Harley, Jill, Emily and Charlie at the subway station. Col had already located where his second elder brother was staying.

James was on leave, so he wasn't at work.

"Je ne comprends pas," zombies? James was roaming around his living room, hitching his head and thinking, I don't understand, how is it even possible. Où? Just tell me where. Please... S"il vous plaît. I know I'm on leave, that doesn't mean I can't help out too. Come on man, I'll owe you one. James smashed his phone to the ground and sat on the floor thinking and biting his nails.

Jamess had lived in this world, since he was ten years old. He knew everyone in the city and their rankings, he knew the type of ability they use. He feared that they are some new people who had just gotten to the city. People that are really bad. He had a hunch, he puzzled the kidnappings and found out that the missing people were actually surpreme tiers.

The info given to James said that someone has been turning innocent people into some kind of zombies. The zombies just roam around, growling and doing nothing. Meanwhile, In the subway station, there was no one there, only growling noises can be heard in the dark. The subway had been closed, because of the incident happening around the station. Mr. Pinto was the only one there.

Following the locator, Col and his companion were standing right in front of a thirty floor skyscraper.

"Good morning, what can I do for you, mister?" The receptionist asked.

Hm, Col let out a sigh. "We are here to see Mister James."

"Okay, just a moment, please." The receptionist said, picking up the phone.

"What's your name Sir?" The receptionist asked.

" Tell him Mr. BraveStone is here to see him." Jason stepped forward and said.

****

Okay Sir, I'll let them in now.

Mr. BraveStones, the receptionist called the group attention. Mr. James is expecting you.

Oh, thanks a lot. So, where do he stay? Col asked, registering his name in a book.

Mr. James lives in the penthouse. The receptionist said without hesitating.

****

Hey, Jason, we are close to reuniting with the rest of the group. Col was cheerful that he is going to meet his brother.

Mr. James, here are your visitors. The room attendant said, bowing to welcome the guest in.

Oh, okay. Service them something to freshen up, I need to make a call. James is a very handsome young black man.

After making his call, he went to see his guest. Seeing Jason there brought memories of them together when they were little kids. James didn't want to believe it, but Jason had already opened his arms wide and he had a smile on his face.

"Big brother, is that really you, James went over and examined him, weather he was real, soon he got feeled with emotions and hugged his brother, Jason tightly. I thought you died.

James, I didn't die, dad separated all of us, to keep us safe. Now we are all in danger and we must reunite with the rest of our siblings. By the way, James said pulling Col near him, this is Col, the last of us. He his you brother, James.

"Hi" Col said waving his hands.

Hahahaha, James laughed and hugged Col, it was like a whirlwind pulled him. Col and James looked alike but they were no twins.

After the exchange of pleasantries, James and Jason were catching up on each other when the News was reported; that the zombies are attacking the people. James, felt guilt at what was happening, so he asked his guest for help. To his surprise, they all agreed to help him.

****

Back in the penthouse, James had picked up, his previous cases, cases that had been closed and forgotten, he had remembered a dealing with a man who could suppress people's abilities. But back then James was tricked and he was experimented on, his blood samples were taken. At the end the man died, James killed him, but with a blood sample that has been injected in. That happened a three years ago, when is mummification ability began to grow.

Guys, I think I no who the Mummy is. James explained how it happened and who it was.

" The zombies, are servants to the Mummy," Col said, acting like he was boogyman.

"Well then let's go get that bloody mummy," Emily said, suggesting they do it now.

After, calling his director, James got a long time leave from work to be with his lost family.

****

In the tunnels, Jason, Emily and Charlie were knocked out cold, James now raised the dead, which he could control.

" Nice, fighting the undead with the dead, nice thinking bro." Col said fighting with one of the zombies. Jill on the other hand was in the air shooting her arrows and killing the zombies without her been touched by one.

In the end, the zombies were turned back to human, no one knew what happened, even Col and James didn't know how it happened, but Harley had been fighting with the controller, The Mummy, who turned out to be Mr. Garcia, the man who rates people abilities, disguised himself to be Mr. Pinto.

So, he transforms himself to people and attack his victims. James said.
