Chereads / Post Apocalypse: Murasaki Camp / Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

Once the children are dismissed the adults gather around to discuss the children's abilities in more detail.

Colin as the leader starts the conversation by asking the only thing important to him at the moment, "Who's power can we use right now?" He is asking Lily specifically.

"Luna, Rin, and the twins. Toya's power was so great it took time to manifest, it will take time to control. It's best he watches how others use their abilities before any accidents happen, and we need to prepare to move soon, they will breach our weak wall." Lily responds looking out of the mansion window at the evolved Infected there's nothing human about them now.

Deformed creatures with grey skin, mindless behaviour, and an uncontrollable urge to bite, claw, or kill any non Infected human.

"Where will we move too? it's hard to find houses big enough now." Colin asks uncomfortable with the idea of moving.

"The mall in 3 days time," Lily responds angry with Colin's reluctance to move. "We will barely have time to pack up," She looks him in the eyes hoping he will see things her way, instead Colin shows no signs of considering her advice. "If you'll excuse me I have to go train Luna, or else when we get to the mall we will die." Lily says, and walks away.

She finds Luna holding a candle, "I wished for one and my hand started tingling, it was my healing, once I combined it with the candle it turned blue. My mother also has this powe" She says smiling at Lily.

Lily smiles and takes Luna around the mansion so she can see everything around the facility, touch it and know how it works.

"In 3 days we'll be going to a new home. A big mall, we'll need those big batteries to power the shields, they operate on the purple disks, do you remember it? The one we left behind 3 years ago." Lily tries her luck, if Luna can wish for things she has seen and touched before her power manifested they could be moving to the mall for good.

The disk is a nanite self energy generating battery. It never runs out of power, they had a strong shield all the time.

Dodge is eaves dropping from the last step of the basement.

Luna wishes for the purple and blue ones, those are the only ones she saw and touched. Toya wouldn't let her touch the red one, "Are these the ones?"

Lily screams out of excitement hugging Luna with tears in her eyes.

Colin runs into the room holding a nano gun, unlimited laser shots, but they only have one, "What?" He asks looking around.

Lily holds up the nanite batteries, "She did it. This is what we need to survive there." She takes the gun from Colin, "I want you to make as many of these as you can, and practice your healing too, everyday from now on, okay?" She gives the gun back after Luna has touched it.

Luna thinks back to when they had a crate of fresh food, she wishes for the large crate and passes out.

Lily runs and grabs Luna's candle, she lays it next to her and asks no one to move her. She wants to see how the healing candle works.

Colin calls everyone to gather downstairs and discuss the moving issue once and for all, "We'll be moving in the next 3 days, we need everyone together in the bunker in the next 10 minutes."

He walks in and opens the crate and it is the exact box, no question about it.

Kevin smiles, "This is gonna be a nice 3 days with food and snacks like this. I can't wait for us to taste and enjoy it." He says grabbing matches an using Luna's candle to light a lamp and the oils colour changes to blue.

He looks at it casually and smiles, "Looks like anyone can be a healer around here, light the rest of the lamps will you Jet." He says since he's closest to the lamps.

Jet nods and complies, his eyes widen when he can feel the tingling of the healing essence in his face from the flame, "Imagine if she added this to the detoxifiers." He thinks out loud.
