****************************
Denton got out of the van as various soldiers ran around helping their teammates get into a better situation. Squinting his eyes, he looked into the outpost and saw the mutant with huge arms slowly healing himself. With a little grin on his face, he looked around and saw a normal car at the side of the road and walked towards it.
“Such a nasty-looking guy. Let’s see if he can handle this.” Murmuring to himself, he squatted down and held the car with both his hands and lift it up over his head. He walked back slowly and moved forward towards the outpost.
Few of the enemies recovered from the blast and saw him coming over with a car and started shooting. Seeing that, he tilted the car a little, using it as a shield, and stood still. As he stopped, the enemies also stopped thinking he was dead. But the car slowly got lifted again and this time he threw it right at the mutant who almost healed.
The guy looked up to see a car flying towards him and lifted his arm. The car smashed against the arm as it continued towards his face, and then he used the other arm to successfully push it away. He slowly got up from the debris and walked out of the outpost.
He finally saw Denton looking at him with a grin on his face. As soon as he saw the grin he ran towards Denton and Denton did the same. Both met right at the middle, but the man dodged Denton’s punch coming straight to his face and punched at his chest. Denton could only use one hand to block as he received the attack and got blown away. He crashed into one of their vans.
“Ugh, this guy really packs a punch. Almost broke my hand. Looks like I got too cocky.” He got up and saw the man running towards him. He got ready and quickly dodged the man. The man’s hands packed more punch than Denton estimated.
As the two mutants were fighting, Barns sent out a signal to all its men, to rush inside the outpost while Denton took care of his outside. They can’t fight with two mutants going at it with full power. Accordingly, everyone slowly made their way inside the outpost. The outpost was basically 2 buildings on the other side with camps on the road.
David and the others who were hiding also made their move and moved inside slowly. As soon as they entered the outpost, they faced an onslaught of sniper and people inside the building.
Luckily, most of the soldiers were able to take cover and fight back. It was the same for David and the others as they hid behind a jeep and continued to fight back. David noticed Steve and his team in one of the buildings quietly taking down teams from within the inside and can’t imagine how tough they are facing in that confined place.
As he guessed it was tough for them as they couldn’t get found out and had to take the advantage of all of them focusing on the people outside to take them down. John was the main person to shoot down the members inside without making much sound, using his precision in shooting. Suzie was mainly acting as a lookout for both of them as they cleared one floor after another.
As Suzie looked outside, she noticed David and her group fighting against the people on the ground and sighed in relief when no one was shot yet. Things could have gone differently if she used her powers, but it was their group’s trump card and she listened to Mark’s advice.
As she was about to turn around she saw Dereck, the young boy who was with them, shot in the shoulder by someone from the opposite building. She immediately took out the gun, carefully aimed for the man, and shot him down before hiding. She didn’t want their mission to fail cause of her shot.
She sneakily checked on her group down below and saw David doing his work by stopping Dareck’s blood outflow using the medical kit they all had. Taking one last look at them, she followed Steve and John as they almost cleared the floor.
David got the first aid down and all three of them made their way into a nearby alley amidst bullets raining everywhere. Setting Dereck to the side he quickly checked the situation outside and turned around to see Gwen crying as if he was already dead.
He then realized that accepting their request was a huge mistake. He sighed and said in a loud voice, “Don’t start crying in amidst of a battle. I already told you both my die before coming here and he is still alive don’t cry like he is dead.”
Gwen immediately shut her mouth. David checked Dereck’s wound one last time as the boy passed out, before going out into the field. He can’t sit there babysitting them.
“Do not come out anymore. Both of you stay in this alleyway. If you come out, I won’t treat you even if your life is on the line.” He warned the girl and walked out. Gwen quietly stayed beside Dereck, hoping he won’t die and realizing how much of a mistake they made by asking to come there.
This place was a nightmare for her. She doesn’t even remember how many times she shot bullets and how many people might have died under it.
“Fight? We don’t know anything. What will we fight? We are two dumb teenagers who thought we were adults to make our own decision. I hope this all ends and we can go back.” As she slowly sobbed midst of the noise outside.
As the inside was tough, the battle on the outside was reaching a conclusion as both the men were bleeding from being thrown around by each other. Denton knew his situation and wanted to end it quickly.
