'Well, we are pretty fuxxxx up!' is what Angela thought seeing that there were more than eight men with visible guns, ten with cold weapons and around fifty civilians of which half were children, high school students and elders..
Some of the students and other civilians seemed to also be on the gangsters side.
Noticing the system timer had becomes all zeros, she got an idea.
As the man was getting closer she started talking from between her teeth.
"Hey Mikael listen carefully to what I'm saying. There are more than 20 armed people so If you want to survive you follow what I'm telling you. First, you should just follow whatever they say, if they say go dig the bodies for gold you just do that, if they say crawl on the ground you crawl and if they say bark you bark.
"Second, remember you are your own priority, no matter who you see, your girl friend, your cousin or who the hell else, you never show familiarity and you don't get involved. Even if they tutor your friends or shoot bullets in their heads, you don't give a damn. Believe me you won't be of help to them and will only put your own head in danger."
After a short pause, Angela turned her head to him.
"And third, I have a plan to get out of here quickly, so no matter what you do make sure you stick with me."
The man got closer.
"What are you doing, come closer!", he shouted at them.
I begun walking towards the group with a slow path and after a few seconds heard Mikaels footsteps behind me too.
When we were close enough, the man gave out a cringy chuckle.
"Boss, I found another pretty high school girl."The man shouted as he analysed her with a creepy smile.
Angela smiled to his remarks. Pretty and high school girl. Who hated looking pretty and young. However the man seemed to misunderstood her smile.
"At that, a quick-witted cutie with a nice body."He added with a dirty look in his eyes as he wink at Angela.
'WOW.. Such a confidence!'
The creepy man was a lot shorter than Mikael. Meaning around 1.65 while she is 1.85. Can he really not see that he is not even tall enough to reach her chest, at this rate shouldn't she be the one calling him a cutie?
Angela was very proud of herself for holding in her laughter. Mikaels face was also red and his shoulders were shaking. His tightly pressed lips almost showed a smile that with Angela elbowing him turned into another shape.
Angela fastened her path towards the man who actually, had a decent face up close. Green eyes and brown hair with a nice facial structure, looking around 28. However his creepy attitude made him an eye sore.
"Uncle, we almost died! Are you here to help us?" Angela said, as she pretended to be all innocent and scared. Even shedding a tear.
'Really deserving of an Oscar!' was what one could interpret Mikaels astonished expression, which Angela ignored as she started sobbing.
"sniff.. sniff.."
"WHAT UNCLE ? I'M ONLY 22! "He shouted fuming with anger as his friend from behind laughed with his entire heart..
" PFFT! UNCLE DANY PLEASE SAVE ME TOO! " another one, this time as tall as Angela with a musculus figure looking around thirty too, with a gun teased the now red like tomato Daniel guy.
Well, a lot younger than he looked. Or maybe it was the clothes..
The tall man stopped laughing and looked their way with a serious glare.
"You two, leave anything you ha.." looking that we only have our bloody clothing on he stopped mid sentens.
"Whatever! If you don't want to die take a bag and start digging. Gold teeth, jewels, jewelry, money , anything of value! Hurry up!"He added with an scary look.
As expected the bloody brand new bags on peoples back were loot..
We were about to go to where he pointed that he suddenly took Angela's collar, turning her head to the direction were beaten up people were gathered.
"You wench, look there! They are people who disobeyed our orders! Now the choice is yours! For your information we have the upper hand in terms of skills too!" he said as he throw her on the ground.
'I will remember him' she swore as she stood up and continued on her way.
This time she was stopped by Mikaels shaking hand holding her arm.
Turning her head, she met Mikaels staggred face that was staring the way that bastard showed her earlier.
"My dad is there, they are kil-ling him.."he said with eyes full of tears and a shaking voice.
"Yea, my brother too!" she said with a neutral tone.
"Nothing we can do for them now. I'm sure your dad wants you to take care of yourself instead of helping him.."
"My brother too.." She added with hesitation as she took his hands off her arm.
He took my arm again.
"pfft, continue walking. I have a plan!"Angela reassured him.
He started walking.
"What plan?" he asked, looking like he didn't trust her words.
"Have you seen the timer? It ended long ago, which means monsters are coming!"
Angela was gonna continue that he interrupted her with a visibly shaking voice.
"How- is that a good thing, we.. we are all gonna die!"
"Listen, the moment you hear screams or roars, we run to your dad and my brother. Then we carry them to the food heaven. Inside the shop there is an secret elevator to the floor -10. This way we are going to get 10 floors closer to the ex-"
[Screams]
[System massage!
Warning!
A monster wave has arrived! No boss monsters has arrived yet!]
"Grrrrr... "
Angela forced, her shaking body, to run towards her, not so loving, yet precious younger brother. She occasionally looked back to see if Mikael was still following her.
'system I want my bat'
The next second the bat was in Angela's hand. Right in time because an ugly monster, looking like wild dog, but with sharper teeth jumped her way.
'It's just a huge ball!, it's just a huge ball..' Angela thought as she smashed each monster head that came her way.
"Swish, swoosh"" bang.. bang .." she reflexively smashed each monster head.
After 20 meters they were there. Non of the monsters seemed to have noticed the tightly tied individuals, as they were intact. Looking at the ropes Angela throw one of the cutter knifes from her packet to Mikael.
"As I'm guarding untie everyone!"
"Whoever is untied, take one of these and defend yourselves!" Angela said, droppning rest of the cutters, before turning her head to take on monster that came their way.
