Caleb and his crew consisting of David, Edward, Jas, Dylan, Michael and two more n who was recently added at the camp are currently scouring for resources in a small village called Tintwistle in two groups

"Sir! I found a few sacks of rice and so others here! Like a lot!" a man shouted from the front door of a two story house, that probably got abandoned amidst the chaos.

"Are you sure Lance?" Caleb and Edward imdiately ca over and Caleb questioned.

"Yes sir" Lance nodded eagerly as he imdiately them inside towards the place where he found the foodstuffs.

"It's over here, sir" Lance pointed towards a destroyed wooden wall.

Edward imdiately took out his torch light and turned it on before he pointed it towards the destroyed wall, illuminating what's looks like a set of stairs heading underground.

"How did you find this?" Caleb looked at Lance and asked.

"I was just tapping the walls when I suddenly I noticed that this part of these wall sounded weird from the rest like there's a space at the other side of the wall so...I guess I just got curious about it from watching many cri movies or tv series. So yeah, I destroyed it and discovered this" Lance explained as he walked through everything from how it happened.

"Alright, Edward and I would go down while you go call the rest to co over here, okay?" Caleb said.

"Yes" Lance nodded.

"Be careful outside" Edward warned just as Lance left the room.

"Let's go" Caleb lead the way inside using his own torchlight.

The journey only lasted around ten seconds before they reached the end of the stairs and what greeted them is a large room with at least a diater around ten ters and in the middle of it are piles over piles of rice sacks, gallons of water, a row of canned food in stack on shelves, a bunch of junk foods like carbonated drinks and a bunch of others.

"This are sugars, salts and peppers. Look, there's even coffee and powdered milk here" Edward started inspecting the things inside the room with a look full of surprise and amazent.

"Don't tell the people who previously owned this place are those called Doomsday Preppers on that TV series?" Caleb said while walking around the room, already calculating in his mind on how long the supplies here would last when they carried all of it back at the camp.

"You've watched that TV series before?" Edward was surprised when he heard so familiar words that he wasn't expecting from soone who was a forr royal guard.

"Yeah, it was pretty interesting" Edward agreed on that as the other edge of his mouth rose up.

"How long do you think these would last us?" Edward asked Caleb as he already started stuffing the canned foods and condints inside a duffle bag.

"Around 2-3 months?"

"That short? I thought it would last longer?"

"I already accounted the survivors that would join us and the other group along this trip" Caleb gave a reasonable answer.

"I see"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Both of them suddenly heard multiple gunshots and looked at each other before rushing upwards. They knew sothing bad must have happened as they were strictly given instructions not to fire their guns and instead use their combat weapons except when they feel truly threatened for their lives.

Above ground and just a few ters away from the house where Caleb and Edward are.

Ratatatat~!

David emptied clip after clip as he slowly moved with a cold expression towards where another ard group is hiding.

"Shit! What the heck is this person? Isn't he afraid of getting killed?" a middle aged man with a beard cursed as he took cover behind a concrete wall.

"Damn you! I told you this was a bad idea! Look what you have gotten us!" a bald man with a tattoo on his face cursed at the man beside him.

There are around nine of them hiding inside a small house trying to not get themselves killed, all of them are ard with simple butcher knives, machetes, axes, while the middle aged man with a beard is equipped with a M1911 and the bald man is ard with a Parker Shotgun.

"Boss! What are we gonna do? We can't even get up to escape! The barrage is not stopping at all! How co this guy has so much bullets on him!?" a man around the thirties started complaining while laying down on the floor with his hands covering his head.

"Shut up!" the bearded man cursed at him and started blindly firing outside from the opened doorway.

"F*ck! Don't f*cking waste your bullets!" the bald man yelled at the bearded man which the latter just snorted and stopped firing back.

*****

Caleb and Edward expertly crouched on the ground as they slowly moved outside towards where the rest are crouching down for a cover.

"What's with David? Why is he firing towards that house? What happened?" upon reaching towards them, Caleb started a barrage of questions while staring at the back of David.

Just as Caleb finished saying those, a bullet suddenly whizzed past his right ear scaring the daylights out of him as he imdiately crouched down.

"Shit! Why didn't you tell that there is soone trying to shoot us!?" Caleb yelled angrily at Jas.

"The bullet was faster than my mouth, sorry" Jas jokingly said almost laughing. It was his first ti seeing this strict and cold field training officer of them getting scared.

"Bastard" Caleb cursed.

"Just tell us what happened" Edward finally can't take it and butted in their conversation.

"Well, long story short. Soone just tried to shoot us down while we were just about to reach the house and now here we are with David emptying mags after mags" Jas said.

Suddenly, the gunfire stopped.

*****

"It stopped!" one of them joyously yelled.

"He's out! This is our chance!" the bald man yelled but just as he was about to get up and fireback at David, sothing was suddenly thrown inside the room they were in.

"Eh?" all of them uttered at the sa ti before soone suddenly yelled in horror.

"Grenade! Run!"

So of them ran outside without caring if they get shot down while so of them dove towards a near huge sofa or in a nearby room.

BOOOOM!

Dust and debris flew from the resulting explosion.

"Shit!" the bald man suddenly cursed as he felt a muzzle touching the back of his head.

"Give one reason so that I won't kill you guys" a cold voice sounded behind him.

'F*cking asshole! You've been trying to kill us since like forever and you even threw a grenade at us! And now you're asking why you shouldn't kill us!?' the bald cursed in his mind before he slowly raised his hand and slowly stood up.

He gave a deep breath and gave his best smile and slowly turned around.

"Sir, ple-"

"Your smile is disgusting" is what David said the mont the bald man just turned around.

'Fucking asshole!' the bald man cursed inside as the veins started bulging on his head.

And his minions started praying to themselves when they saw that their boss has gotten angry from being told that his smile is disgusting.

'Oh god! It's his reverse scale!'

'Please, don't f*ck up!'

'Please, don't f*ck up!'

'Please, don't f*ck it.up~!'
