Imagine yourself in a room full of treasures? That's what Bats felt.
"According to plan, according to plan...."
He murmured to himself.
He raised his hand in front of the money and a space fracture opened and sucked 10 bundle of money which is Php100,000 per bundle with a total of Php1,000,000. It went directly to his endless space, he called this Space Store.
"Okay, 1st target bank completed. Let's go to the next bank."
Bats said it with a calm expression but deep inside, full of excitement.
Then a few hours had passed he targeted BPI, RCBC, Unionbank, Landbank. He got a total of Php5,000,000 or in USD $100,000.
He only got Php1,000,000 per bank as to avoid the banks when they alert or reported it to the police.
Imagine if you rob the whole bank due to being greedy, once the manager of the bank inspects the vault, it will notify the police and their will be investigation.
If possible I don't want them to be involved.
The solution is to slowly rob it. Even if the manager finds 10 bundles of money missing, that will only be their problem internally. 10 bundles of money is like a snowflake in a snow for big banks. So they will resolve it internally.
That's what Bats thought, which is, a few days later, nothing on the news. It was a good thing. He continued doing this, but to different branches.
---3 Weeks Later---
He already taught the newly hired Engr.
It was time for the newly hired Engr. to be the one responsible for his work.
And within these past weeks, he got a total of Php100,000,000(or $2,000,000 in USD). It was like nothing happened to the big banks, no news, no reports, etc...
"I wonder what will happen to the managers of those banks I robbed?I feel bad for them."
He said it with sorry on his face.
Barracks Office 5:00 pm
"Uyyy, today's your last day. How about a treat first."
Romel said while smiling.
"Won't you miss us after this?"
Adrian said while teasing Bats.
"How about a bar instead, tomorrow will be rest day afterall. hehe"
Bazil said while also teasing him.
Bats who sat in front of the computer suddenly turns around and laughed.
"Ok then let's go at the Samgyupsal. As what I had told last month. Let's go eat outside with our team."
Bats and his companions went to the Samgyupsal Restaurant just a 2km from their barracks office. They were enjoying eating and happily chatting.
Bats silently asked them if they believe in such an apocalypse and regression, but just as he thought, they made fun of him.
Well, he cannot blame them though.
He cannot show his abilities to them just to make them believe him. Being cautious is more important even if they were his companions. It's not yet the right time.
He only gave them a hint,
"On December 1st, be prepared as I will come back here again."
---Next Day---
Bats waived goodbye to his companions and got on the bus. But as soon he got on the bus, Romel was confused about last night about what do he mean by "Be prepared." Then they parted ways.
Bats who got on the bus was sitting with his right hand on his cheek and his elbow on the window. He was thinking deep.
He remembered PM-Sison and PIC-Sermia were the 1st one to die in his companions. December 9,2024 when they were having a walkthrough in the construction site, there were many people suddenly biting others. They were confused at first, but then a man with a green hardhat with his right eye hanging mid-air and blood all over his clothes rushed running towards them. That was when they know it must be the that virus on the news abroad, they thought it was fake news at first but then a week passed after the news, it already came and spreaded in the Philippines. When they were on the verge of being cornered, PM-Sison and PIC-Sermia suddenly rushed towards the group of zombies and blocked them as if it was like an adrenaline. They were both crying in pain as their flesh torns apart and blood sprouts.
"What are you all doing!!! Just get the hell out of here you f*cking id*ots!!!!"
"Run!!!Run!Run!!!!Ahhh it hurts!"
They both said with a pain in their voice.
Bats and his 4 companions all saw this gruesome scene and starting running the sh*t out of there. There, they saw a military truck in the street just near the construction site and was trembling in fear.
"Freeze, stop right there! Is anyone of you bitten?"
One of the soldier said while the soldiers are pointing their guns towards them.
"No, n..none of us were b...bitten s...sir"
"N...none s....sir"
The companions said in a trembling voice.
The soldiers checked them one by one if they were not bitten, they were clean.
"Ok, hop in the truck. Let's go to the survivors camp. Move, move move!"'
As the truck started to moved, they all saw the horror of what happened, they also saw some buildings on fire, gasoline station exploded, the infected biting the neck of a woman, a child crying while the infected started eating him. It was gruesome.
