While making as little sound as possible, they walked as fast as they could. There was no sign of other monsters, and most of the ones which were hiding went into the house Ray threw the rock at.
Once they finally reached their house, they quietly unlocked the door, and entered. At the same time, the sound of screams could be heard
"AAAAAAAAHH!! HELPPP!!!"
The female scream came from a few houses away, it wasn't the house that Ray had thrown a rock at, but because of that scream.
One by one, monsters started to come out of the houses, however, there weren't many in that area. Ray assumed that most were possibly hiding, but maybe they weren't intteligent enough to do it properly. That could have been the case, or so he hoped.
Around 5 Monsters zoomed right past his house, heading towards the sound. Their frames were humanoid, but at the same time, looked nothing like it. Sort of like a monster and human figure had merged.
Just looking at it sent chills down his spike
"S-Stay back!" Shouted a voice of a male
Then the cries and screamed for helped, followed up with a large bang. The sound of a gunshot. There were people fighting in the streets.
"I-I KILLED IT!" The man shouted
Ray was curious to see what was happening, but he knew better than to let his curiosity get the better of him.
The small sound of a click came from the door, and it opened. Without wasting any time, Ray and Tina quietly entered and closed the door, and as it was about to close, ray heard another shout
"W-WHAT?! IT WASN'T DEAD?! WHERE ARE THEY COMING FRO-"
The voice suddenly stopped, and what followed that was another scream, from the same girl
"NOOOOOOOO!!"
After that, no more sounds could be heard, and the door was completely closed. Tina and Ray stood in front of the entrance.
Ray didn't know what was going through his sister's mind, but he was exhausted. He couldn't stop panting, so much had happened in a day that he didn't know what to believe
They both simultaneously collapsed on to their knees in front of the door
"Haha... We made it... Ha..."
"..."
Tina just stayed quiet, or rather, she was in deep thought
"Ray... Is this screen, what I think it is?" Tina Asked
With a serious expression, ray replied
"Yeah... I'll explain it to you later..."
He slowly got up, forcing his fatigued body, to go well over Its limits
"You're tired, you should get some more rest..." Said Tina
"No... I'm fine..." Said Ray
Ray did not look fine at all, it might've been due to all the blood he lost, or mentally straining himself. However, right now, Ray knew he didn't have time to rest
Seeing this, tina decided to let him do as he pleased for now. After all, he seemed to know something that she didn't. And what was more important, right now, was the screen which was Infront of her
First, they went to the garage. Ray staggered as he walked, but didn't fall.
By the time, they entered the garage, they already knew what they were looking for, without even consulting one another.
Tina, picked up two hiking/camping back packs, while ray got the weapons. Ray's dad, had a warrant, and had a habit of collecting weapons. Ray wasn't sure why, as whenever he asked his dad, he'd say it was a hobby
"I always used to think dad had a strange hobby, but now I couldn't have been more grateful." Said Ray
Ray picked up 4 Combat knifes, the m3 trench, was his dad's favourite, so he went with it. As for the guns his dad had in display, Ray only got two. Two hand guns.
"Are you sure, we shouldn't get the m4 or the ak?" Tina asked
"Sis, have you ever used a gun?" Ray asked
"I've used a hand gun, when we went on vacation, dad took me to target practice." Said Tina
"Yeah, me too. He made me promise not to tell you or mum" Said Ray
"It was the same for me" Tina replied
"It's almost as if, dad knew this was coming... There's a lot I want to ask him..."
"Yeah... It's too much of a coincidence." Said Tina
"I also only used a handgun, and I think we should stick with that. Carrying a big gun, will only slow us down. Not to mention it's dangerous, and makes too much sound. It's too risky" Said ray, as he grabbed the sheaths and holsters
"That's true" Said Tina as she looked at the bullet-proof vests
"Hey sis... Dad was pretty well armed wasn't he... He has vests and everything..."
"Well, he did work for the government..."
Ray took off his shirt and walked over to the vests which were available.
"This one will fit you" Said tina, as she grabbed it from the display
Ray, took it and put it on. He moved his body around, to see how it felt like
"It's a bit hard to bend my torso, and a little heavy, but it won't slow me much by much. This is good" Said Ray
Ray looked and noticed that there was even female vests here. Why would their dad need female vests? Something was definitely wrong with their dad.
"No peeking" Said Tina as gestured at him to turn around and close his eyes
"I wasn't planning to" Said ray as he did as she said
Shortly after it was done, she also put the vest under her clothes like he did.
"You can look now." Said tina
Ray opened his eyes and looked at tina, you could hardly tell that she was wearing a vest under, she just looked a little fatter.
"How do I look?" She asked
"Fa- Nice." Ray quickly replied
"Oi, were you about to say fat just now?" Tina asked with a cold look
"No, I planned on saying Fabulous, but it sounds weird." Replied Ray with a poker face
"... Okay..." Said tina as she gave him the stare
After everything was prepared, they put it in the backpack. Aside from the vests, they didn't try anything else on. That was because they were in their school uniform. They had to change clothes in to something easier to move on.
"Alright, the backpacks are ready." Said Ray
Tina nodded
There were 2 backpacks, 1 for ray and 1 for tina. Ray's backpack contained a hand gun 2 hand knifes, Sheaths and holsters. Along with 2 hand grenades. Tina's backpack was exactly the same.
"Let's go get changed and properly put on everything, put on clothes that are easy to move on. I'm not sure why dad literally had a hand grenade in his garage, but let's not question it. After we're changed, meet up in the kitchen, and make sure you pack clothes in your bag" said Tina
"Understo-"
Ray was interrupted, by the sound of rustling coming from the kitchen.
