Azie's POV
"Okay. Let's stick with that." Arius said in a final tone and rose from his seat. I just heaved a sigh.
Is this the end of the world? Virus outbreak? Survival? This ain't cool at all.
The atmosphere became silent for a minute. Everyone is contemplating if this plan we made will work.
I looked at Gifflet who's currently looking outside the half-open window where we can hear growling and screams of agony and terror. I saw Arius at the corner of the room doing something weird on the wall. Kaliya and Dearil sitting beside me in deep thoughts.
"May natira pa kayang buhay tulad natin?" Kaliya whispered.
I saw Dearil pat her shoulder.
"Maybe? Or maybe we're the only ones."
I shudder thinking about what's outside this room. Monsters that'll ravish us anytime we put our guards down.
"No. It's still the first day. I'm sure people were doing everything to fight and hide. So we better do this." Kaliya stated as we fell into deep silence.
"You guys ready?" I decided to break the quiet athmosphere. They all shook their heads while Gifflet shut the window close.
"Not really but I guess we have to." I gave Gifflet a sad smile
"Okay then—"
"Wait! You guys come here and help me push this damn wall." Arius shouted across the room that caught all our attention.
We rush in his direction as Dearil and Gifflet then help him push the wall. Our eyes widen.
"Shit."
"This... this is.." Says Kaliya in disbelief.
"I thought you don't have something like this here?" I turned to Arius who was standing beside Kaliya.
"Baby, I don't even know this room exists." He said while his eyes were in front. I didn't mind what he said and just step inside while looking for any wall switch.
"Well, I knew there has to be something inside this very well built room. Let's go."
"Wait, how did you find this secret room here?" Kaliya ask curiously walking behind us.
"I happen to see some weird parting line." I heard Arius replied.
I instinctively snapped my head on my right side when a bright light hit my face.
"You smoke?" I asked as I saw him holding a lighter with a light on its side.
"Nope. Just a story without anything fun." I shrug.
I smile at him and we finally saw the light switch and click it on making all the light bulbs on the wall glow.
"Woah!" We can't help but felt amaze standing in front of this wall and room full of weapons! From types of guns to sharp weapons!
There's also this gray transparent fridge that contains choco bars and layers of foods.
"Never know Mr. Claeg hides kinds of stuff like these here." Dearil said, referring to Arius' dad.
"Well, I'm not surprised at all. Uncle loves guns. I still remember when we were kids, we love playing with toy guns in your backyard Ari—" Arius cut her off.
"Tss!" I averted my gaze from them to Gifflet and saw his face change. My brows shot up.
So, they're best friends since they were kids. Interesting.
"Stop it Kaliya," Arius said frowning, and walks right in the middle of me and Giff.
"Aray ah!" I hissed when Arius hit my bruised left arm. I got this lastime after someone from the bullies whom I kicked the ass hit me with their baseball bat.
Well, I can say it is a nice thing I've been hit on my arm and not on my head or I'd be gone at this moment. It won't be great if I die just like that, no thrill.
"You alright?" Gifflet asks worriedly. I just nod at him and throw Arius a deadly glare.
"What the fuck is your problem?!"
"What? You're bitten?" He asked bluntly which made my blood boil as if he doesn't care the he hurt someone. The audacity!
"Are you stupid? We're inside the detention room the whole time and you're seriously gonna ask me that I am bitten?" What a jerk he is!
"So what's with your arm?" Kaliya ask sassily and took a step backward.
What the hell?
"This is the prize I got from beating some arrogant jerk okay? And going to D.R is my consequence." I replied and rolled my eyes heavenwards. They seem to believe me and decided not to annoy me anymore.
Good decision or I can't promise no one would be hurt before we even leave this secret room.
"Okay stop it guys. Let's just get some weapons and get back to our main plan! Fighting won't do us good." Dearil said breaking the tense atmosphere.
"Tsk!" Bullshit. I freaking wanna hit that smug ass face of Arius. Badly.
"Let's scatter and make sure to pick a light weapons we know how to use. Pick some first aids and foods too after that, let's meet here. We have to leave before dawn." We all nod our heads to Gifflet and didn't waste time.
I started to do my own thing after I spotted a black pack bag in the corner of the room and put all the high caloric and nonperishable foods like chocolate/chips, biscuits, canned goods, and first aid tools and medicines.
The room is not that big yet it's enough to fill tons of classic guns and sharp weapons.
After that, I wander my eyes off the other side of the room where I saw Dearil and Kaliya in the pistols section while Arius is on the riffles and Gifflet on the knives.
This room is just so cool. How I wish I can build something like this in my room.
My eyes landed on the left corner where I saw a beautiful shiny sword alongside it was a bow and arrows. I didn't waste any more time and tread towards it. Elbowing the glass cage that creates a crashing sound and made the four people jump on their shoes.
I just smile at them awkwardly seeing how pissed they were and turned my gaze back at the sword and the bow.
I touched the sword, although it's been 2 years since the last time I stop learning martial arts including this, I still remember how to use it.
It is not that long, it's just an average-looking samurai yet it's very light and sharp as it wounded my index finger.
I took its 'wooden holster' and put it inside and wear it on my back. The same thing goes with bows and arrows that I am confident I can use properly.
After that, I proceed to the pistol section and took 2 of them and four cartridges, put one on my waist and a gun holster and strap one on my right leg, and put the other one there too.
My eyes shine when I saw daggers and so I took 2 of them too and placed them inside my boots.
Honestly, Arius's dad's so freaking cool!
After that, I returned to where we should meet and saw Arius and Dearil there. My forehead creased when I saw their outfit changed into all leathers. From jacket to boots.
Where did they get those?
"That boxes over there, open it and look for clothes that'll suit you." Arius snaps as if he can read my mind.
I didn't ask any more questions and started walking across the room where I saw 10 boxes and glanced inside them. I saw leather jackets, shirts, and boots.
I place my bags down and change my outfit right away. I pick two more shirts and tossed them inside my bag then returned to where the others were. They already changed their clothes too.
"Great. Did you stuff enough amount of food and weapons?" We nod our heads at Dearil and then we're surrounded by silence for a few minutes before Kaliya broke it off.
"So this is it. Let's stick back to the plan and get the freaking out in here." She said nervously.
Yes. We have to get out in here safe and alive. I hope our plan will work.
"May God guides us," I whispered and glance at them all who feel the same way.
"Let's do this," I said staring at them gritting my teeth and giving them sharp looks.
And with that bumalik na kami sa D.R kung nasaan ang nag iisang bintana na aming dadaanan para maka alis sa lugar na 'to.
