Renee Johnson suddenly wakes up, and then instantly sat up on the bed that she was on. It was a large king sized bed, which was comfortable and soft to the touch. Renee was at first confused, not knowing where she was or how she got here, but after a series of memories flooded into her mind, she quickly remembered somethings.
Renee Johnson: That bitch shot me... again! But then why the hell am I still alive?! (Renee asks in confusion)
Renee then heard someone chuckle, and looking up she sees a woman sitting at the corner of the room, probably been sitting there for a while.
"I asked myself the same question at one point in my life, but now I already know the answer to that question. And soon, you will too." (The woman tells Renee with a smile)
Renee Johnson: Who are you? (Renee asks her)
"My name is Cassidy Blaze. I am here to look after you this morning." (The beautiful Cassidy tells Renee)
Renee Johnson: Look after me? What does that mean? (Renee asks suspiciously)
Cassidy Blaze: It means that I will personally escort you to the Briefing room. So that you don't do anything, dangerous. (Cassidy explains as she got up from her seat, walking towards Renee afterwards)
Renee Johnson: And what if I don't wanna go to the briefing room? Will you shoot me? (Renee asks boldly, a little scared of the possibility, but trying her best not to show it)
Cassidy Blaze: (Chuckles) You don't have to worry about that, I am not going to shoot you, I promise. All I'm trying to do is take you to a place where you can get answers. Don't you want that? (Cassidy asks)
Renee Johnson: I... do. (Renee admitted)
Cassidy Blaze: Splendid, then come with me. It's almost time for the briefing. (Cassidy tells her as she opens the door to the room, walking through and leaving it open for Renee)
Renee Johnson: (Sighs) God help me. (Renee said before she left the room, following Cassidy's lead)
While Renee was still in the room, she had looked outside the window, and saw that she was in a very big mansion. Walking with Cassidy, Renee could see more of the place, realising that it was not just big, but fancy as well.
Renee Johnson: What is this place? (Renee asks as they walk past multiple individuals, who all stare at Renee curiously)
That's when Renee noticed that almost everyone here wore a dark green jacket over their clothes, with different numbers designed on them. All the jackets were unique, and had different styles to them.
Cassidy's jacket made her look sleek, especially with the large number three boldly showing at the back. Needless to say Renee wanted one just like hers, but can she get it for cheap she wondered.
Cassidy Blaze: This is the Compound. It's a place where people like you and I can feel safe and protected, because we are. (Cassidy explains happily)
Renee Johnson: Compound? Wait a minute, what do you mean people like you and I? (Renee questioned)
Cassidy Blaze: Come on girl, you can't tell me you haven't noticed it... Your Immortality. (Cassidy tells her)
Renee Johnson: What immortality. (Renee asks)
Cassidy Blaze: You've been shot twice in the head, and you're still alive! Haven't you wondered why that is, or is it considered normal to you or something?
Renee Johnson: I don't know... I don't know what to believe anymore... Am I not just crazy? (Renee asks somberly)
Cassidy Blaze: No you're not. The situation you're in is crazy, but you certainly are not. (Cassidy tells her firmly)
Cassidy continues to walk, and Renee continues to follow her. Soon they make it to a door, and two guys meet them at that door.
The first guy is a big black man with a strong physique and a nice smile on his lips, while the other guy is a skinny white man with a weaker physique and a downthrodden look on his face.
The big man wore a big green jacket like Cassidy did, but the other guy just wore a suit and glasses, making Renee quickly realize that he was being escorted here like she was.
"Hey Cassidy, how's the newcomer treating you?" (The big man asks with a smile)
Cassidy Blaze: Yeah she's alright. She hasn't tried to escape or kill me yet, so that's generally a good sign. (Cassidy replied)
"Hi, I'm Bobby Flint. It's nice to meet you Miss?..." (Bobby asks as he extends a hand)
Renee Johnson: Renee, Renee Johnson. It's nice to meet you too, I guess. (Renee said as she shook the big man's hand)
Bobby Flint: And this here is my new friend, Jeffrey. He's a little sad because he's had a rough night, but he'll be alright. (Bobby explains as he introduces the guy standing next to him)
Jeffrey Long: It tried to eat me... Is this what karma is? Are all of my bad decisions going to come back to haunt me?! (Jeffrey rambles as he grabs onto his own face)
Bobby Flint: It's okay, Jeffery. You don't have to worry about it anymore, because it can't get you in here. (Bobby assures him)
Jeffrey Long: (Sad Chuckle) Well if you say so, but still I highly doubt that I'm safe here. (Jeffrey mutters)
Cassidy Blaze: Okay let's not keep them here longer than necessary. If you want to get answers, then please enter this room. (Cassidy says as she motions to the door in front of them)
Bobby Flint: Remember, Jeffrey. You're safe within these walls. It can't get you in here. (Bobby assured the feeble man)
Jeffrey Long: Thanks, Bobby. For everything. (Jeffrey replies with a slight smile)
Bobby Flint: (Chuckles) You're welcome... Now go inside, you don't want to keep the boss man waiting. (Bobby says as he opens the door for them, and after they go inside, he shuts the door behind them)
Cassidy Blaze: Rough night huh? I take it that means the Reckoning was tough? (Cassidy asks)
Bobby Flint: Tough is an understatement, I couldn't even kill the damn thing! Had to escape from it instead. (Bobby explains, a little bit of his frustration now showing)
Cassidy Blaze: You didn't kill the Reckoning before bringing him here?! That could have caused a serious problem, and especially if it was dangerous! (Cassidy yells)
Bobby Flint: Don't worry, I had eyes on him the entire night, I didn't even sleep a wink... But it's a small price to pay for everyone's safety. (Bobby tells her as he rubs his tired eyes)
Cassidy Blaze: Well then, try to get some rest. We can't have our strong man looking weak, it just wouldn't be a good look. (Cassidy tells him with a smile)
Bobby Flint: Copy that, Captain. Soft bed here I come! (Bobby says as he heads for his room)
Cassidy Blaze: (Sighs) With so many new faces here, this place is starting to get crowded. But it's better than them being out there, and causing trouble with that lunatic. (Cassidy said to herself, before walking off in another direction)
Meanwhile in the briefing room of the Compound. Renee Johnson and Jeffrey Long are staring at an older gentleman, who sat behind a desk, with two individuals standing by his side. They were the twins, Mark and Eva, the people who shot and kidnapped Renee Johnson, bringing her here against her will.
Mr Smith: Welcome to the Compound you two... Please, sit. (The older man tells them with a kind smile)
Next: Mr Smith.
