The beautiful beast.

Chapter 27

  “Alright kiddo,here's your room. Make yourself comfy.”

BLAM!

Cringing from the slammed door Ethan wondered if Dave was so forceful with everything he did. Heck,that if that door wasn't made from metal it'll probably have been turned into a wreck by now.

  Glancing around the wooden room,Ethan clicked his tongue as he thought of how spacious the place was. 

  Well that was inevitable if you considered the fact that this whole place was a military base.

  Ex-military base to be precise!

  It was one of those military training facilities from the cold war that was abandoned after the war ended. It was supposed to have been deconstructed or something since the military rarely left it's property lying around.

  However,the contractor that was given the demolishing project didn't even do it and coupled with how deep in the forest the facility was no one even knew until the apocalypse struck and Tyson and Thomas along with other people fleeing from monster's found it and turned it into a shelter.

  Plopping himself on the very soft bed,Ethan looked towards the wooden ceiling while a lot of thoughts went through his head.

  The first thing was about his circumstances or better still his pre-memory loss circumstances. While he told Thomas and the others that he just woke up in the supermarket after being unconscious that was not the case.

  In fact he didn’t wake up in any supermarket. Rather,he woke up in a damn forest!

 Well not a forest per say,it was more like an overgrown park area but then he couldn't tell the whole team that he woke up in such a place and nothing happened to him!

  With how monsters were roaming free,no human being would be able to make it that far unless you had skills or were an awakened. There simply was a point at which even luck failed!

  Then came the second issue—his memory. 

The last thing he remembered was a certain face and then he didn't remember anything again. This puzzled him a lot because he had this feeling of pure hatred welling up inside him whenever he thought about that guy yet he couldn't remember the face of the guy when he woke up. 

Essentially,his memory was all fuzzy from that point onwards.

  However,there were still somethings he remembered such as his name and something about three people whom he held dearly in his heart. Again he couldn't remember who those people were or why he remembered them.l,he just knew that they were important to him and he probably never would see them again.

  “And the date too…”

  Although,he couldn't remember,when he went into that unconscious state,he remembered that it was in the early days of the apocalypse,around the beginning of March. Thus when he found out that it was already June he felt shocked. 

Thankfully he was able to hide it from the Stinging nettles otherwise they would have picked it up as something weird.

  “Damn it,why is everything g not making sense?!" 

  Grabbing his head he rolled around on the bed while groaning in frustration.

All the things that happened to him now might sound somewhat like a bullshity w******l plot but he knew that it wasn't. It was something that happened to him just that he couldn't make any sense of it. There was a point of connection that one he understood everything that happened would become clear to him.

  Unfortunately,his amnesic state forbade him from having that luxury.

  Well I guess I'll just focus on the moment instead of dwelling on things I have no control over.”

  Remembering the faces of everyone at the table earlier and his they welcomed him a surge of warmth rose in him. They way they treated him like family struck a deep cord in him. It was like experiencing an emotion that was relatively new to him.

He might have lost his memory,but he wasn't going to allow it to get in between him and this newfound life. Quietly he resolved.

  “If a monster tries to destroy my new family I'll kill it! If a human tries to I'll eliminate him and if the whole world tries to tear me away from this……”

  Pausing,a sharp,dark glint that would make any onlookers shiver passed through his eyes.

“.......I'll bathe the world in blood!" 

***********

  Inside the command room of the Raisin camp…

   The two brothers,Tyson and Thomas could be seen entering the command building of the Raisin camp. This was the most protected place in the whole camp considering how many awakened were standing guard there.

  Well it was understandable when you considered that fact that this place housed the only way of getting in touch with the military and the outside world!

  “Attention!" 

  Placing their hands on their chests the two soldiers standing outside the command room saluted.

  " At ease.”

  After going through a bunch of counter infiltration procedures,the two finally entered the command room which was totally empty save for the gigantic metallic box there which was constantly blinking with a bright red flash.

  Flipping through a bunch of switches and pressing so e buttons,the red flashing light finally went off before being replaced with a green light.

 Grabbing the reciever,Tyson placed it against his ear.

The next moment,a voice came out of the reciever. 

   “Mister Tyson?" 

  " General Lebronsky.”

 "I went to Gabon to find money..”

  "....and I came back with a bucket of tofu!”

After exchanging a secret code between themselves to ensure that it really was the person expected to beon the other line that was speaking.

  “There is a situation,a very bad one.”

  Frowning,Tyson asked.

“How bad?" 

  There was a long period of silence from the other line before a stressed response finally came over.

  “Code Zulu alpha bad!"

  Instantly,the two brothers in the room stared at each other with extreme shock on their faces.

  “What!”
