Chapter 6 : Unwelcoming answers Part 1.

After securing Alaney iside the Underground Auditorium, Callius performs a quick visual search to encounter Carteon, finding him unconscious floating in the middle of the stage.

Which makes Callius to send an [Emanation] of Electrons to wake up the sleepy Hûrngöth.

After the seventh discharge, Carteon is finally conscious, and the first thing he does after observing the situation is ask for Alaney, his crush.

—How is Alaney, Gorng?!; Preoccupation evident in his voice.

—I wake you up, so you can tell me consistently Dankner; Callius said trying to keep his calm and Carteon instantly scan Alaney with the [Bicromy] of his silver glowing eyes, being able to determine the status of the female Hûrngöth.

—Externaly she is fine, but his bones are severely damaged, close to being knackered, as her mushy muscles and organs, she is healing but …

Carteon voice breaks down as his state of mind falter with the woman he loves almost dead laying in front of him, impotent to assist her in any way.

—Dankner; Callius call's him but the youngling is completely devastated at the sight of the other female Hûrngöth that accompany him and his friends regularly.

All of them in a terribly dire situation, with torn or lost limbs, hemorrhages and so many other death bodies splatter all over the surfaces of the Underground Auditorium.

—Dankner!; Scream Callius, catching Carteon attention —What it is Gorng?.

—Tell me who is still alive and not fatally injured so we can … ; Struggling to find a proper answer as encouragement due to his lack of intelligence, he resorted to his better option with absolute certainty and conviction in his words »—So we can be ready to be useful at Bverxkka return.

Carteon is still skeptical after seeing Marshack doubt a few minutes before, neverless, he perform a wave of non-invasive Kinetic Energy to not harm anyone present and quickly distinguish who is in the best condition.

— Cadette Hayon is unconscious and uninjured, his friend has a couple of ribs cracked but is healing fast, the rest are too wounded …

Callius send an [Emanation] of Electrons at Norren, the discharge goes through him and reach Peatell, who lies under his friend, jumping immediately with a scream by the intense electric shock and waking Norren in consequence.

The view stunned Norren who experience the aftermath of Unmentionable Brightness, recalling the horror occurred in that occasion.

Peatell never pass something similar even when he lost all his family in the terrible hecatomb, which makes him vomit saliva as he cannot tolerate the stench of blood and vices that accompany the gore displayed on what he can see, oblivious of the entire scene that surrounds them.

—Bertha!; Exclaim Peatell, completely terrorized by the possibility of his newly acquired Partner being injured or worst.

—She may be small in size, but is tougher than me, she is an Instructor already, don't forget that. Norren commented to assure his friend.

Putting his right arm over the nape of Peatell under the excuse of needing help, more accurately, so the naive Hûrngöth doesn't watch the rest of the bloodshed dead bodies behind them.

—Gorng, go with this two and check the Instructors, i am going to monitoring Alaney and cauterized the others hemorrhage with Prio Plasma.

Callius nods to Carteon, and the former is followed by Norren who is "helped" by Peatell to leave the Underground Auditorium.

Heading towards the Conference Room, Norren inquire —Cadette Gorng, you know what happened?.

—No, Bverxkka is going to inform us at his return, if is necessary. Callius mentioned calmly with fast paced walk.

Norren let go Peatell and equates the speed of the tallest Hûrngöth in history, this surprise both of the other two.

Peatell is shocked at noticing his injured friend doesn't need any help and Callius is impress by Norren determination and conviction.

In the next seconds, the three Hûrngöth reach the entrance of their destination, Callius doubts before opening the doors.

Norren has an uneasy feeling too, and when Callius is going to proceed, the former stop him —You sense it too.

Callius nods and Peatell is confused, they just need to cross the threshold so he can verify Bertha's safety.

Norren tilt his head, signaling the Auxiliary Room of the Conference Room, Callius walks towards the door and whisper —Can you "TAL"? (Terminate A Life).

Norren is slightly taken a back but respond in the same maner with a whisper —Yes, Patt is not ready.

—Stay here Cadette Hayon. Callius words confuse Peatell more but before he can complain, Norren state resolutely —And don't enter, wait for us here Peatell.

The young Hûrngöth understand quickly and step aside {Something is not right, Norren only call's me by my name when is a matter of relevance}.

Peatell sit down on the marble brown floor, Norren and Callius look each other and open the door of the Auxiliary Room.

Inside there is servers, consoles of control and 2 Hûrngöth, 1 surprised male Hûrngöth and 1 dead body, with a claer shoot in the head that blasted half of it in the adyacente wall.

The Hûrngöth tries to wield his weapon but Callius jump at him, grabbing the head of the hostile Hûrngöth and stamping it on the ground, pulverizing it into pulp in an instant.

Norren is unfazed for what happened, but what is seen through the stained glass is disturbing.

Encountering 84 Instructors with 42 Apprentices, 21 Directives, 7 Coordinators, 3 Vice principals and the Principal, all Perfectly fine without any kind of minor bruises or bumps and having a chilling debate.

{I may be Stupid as Aezza said, but this view is fake, omitting Ark Duke Wickman and Bverxkka, no one is more resilient than me, not even Dankner}.

—Ready?. Asked Callius to Norren, the latter doesn't respond with words, because he reactivate the Personal Shield and covers his arms with Kinetic Energy.

Callius smile with confidence and a moment after, he gets serious, reactivating his Personal Shield too and charging at the glass that separates the Rooms, braking it as the illusion displayed in it.

On the other side, several dozens of bodies lies motionless, some injured, unconscious or lifeless, others were fighting, is evident in their wounds but for some reason they stopped.

And right before Callius crash inside, a discussion was quite hotheaded, and the apparence of the two newcomers momentarily stop the words conflict.

—Cadette Gorng!; Surprise and relief goes out the Principal mouth, an old woman with short grey hair and feline yellow eyes with some wrinkles on her forehead due to her age.

»—Can you get rid of the Neutronio Bombs attached to the doors?.

A quick look at the 2 side entrances and the one that goes to the Auxiliary Room, reveal the dangerous devices

Norren uneasyness return at the realization of the threat {My brother exacerbates the emphasizes of how dangerous Neutronio is}.

Nonchalantly, Callius walks up to the closest device, and fastly pulls it away from the door, bringing it to his stomach as he adopts a fetal position.

The explosion makes visible the translucent yellowish Personal Shield of Callius, but not sound or even light is heard or seen, the tallest Hûrngöth repeat the process two more times with the same simplicity in each occasion.

—The Anarchist Criminals were neutralized?. Callius inquire and the Principal expression turns grimmer —They are …

The response is a bit detached, she looks at her side, being evident the dead body of her granddaughter, having holes, presumably of multiple shoots of a weapon.

Norren focus on the Principal's left hand, is blooded, and have the windpipe of someone, the old female loses control over her strength and breaks it.

Just then, one of the doors opens, entering Marshack followed by Peatell.

The latter runs towards Bertha, embracing her with tenderness and care.

—Principal Oner; Marshack's stoic and firm voice attracts the focus on him »—Mobilize your Personnel to transport wounded and deceased to the "Facility", Cadette Hayon, you have to link all our media to broadcast the situation we are going through, and something more …
