After hearing about what had happened in the Hospital from Cody, it was time for Kun and Pink to decide what to do next. It was clear that Brando needed their help, but the thing was, Kun was really hoping that Zain would have returned or arrived by now, but the latter was still missing and hadn't regrouped with them yet.
Thinking about this, Kun smiled to himself.
'I guess I didn't realise how we have started to rely on him so much. We have gotten strong because of him, stronger than we were before. And it's time to use our new strengths.'
With this thought, he suggested some things to Cody and Pink before they headed in.
"We need to move now. If there are gunshots and several people under the doctor's control like you said they are, then it means we need to hurry. Otherwise, there will be a lot of trouble."
As the other two nodded, Kun took the gun from Cody's hand and gave him a quick guide on how to use it, although he could only tell him the basics for now.
"In all honesty, it would be best if you didn't have to use it since most people inside are just scared and cautious," Kun said.
With a determined nod, all three of them ran into the hallway. They sprinted down the hallway, and in doing so, it looked like there were quite a few panicked people inside.
"Everyone, we have received an order from the Doctor!" The person at the reception yelled at them, "We have to attack the people who have come today with that patient."
At the same time, one of the guards pulled out a large crate from behind. And soon, they began to hand out guns to the general public. As that was happening, many of those in their seats had turned and looked toward Dave, who was still sitting in the back.
"Wait, I haven't done anything. Why are you guys looking at me?!" Dave shouted. "You can see that I have been here the whole time. There has to be a mistake."
Without giving a chance for Dave to convince them, one of the scrawny men, who looked weak and possibly also a university student, leapt towards Dave and tried to punch him, but Dave didn't sit still.
The training that Dave had received at the museum had kicked in, and seeing his hand cocked back, he waited for the latter to throw the punch since the direction of where it was going to be easy to read, and so he easily avoided it, then throwing a punch fo his own right in the scrawny guy's face.
It was a hard hit that had hurt Dave's knuckles and hand, but he had a sense of achievement as he looked at the student on the floor.
"Look at that smile on his face, he just hit one of us, and he acts like that!"
"He must be evil. That's why the doctor has told us to get their group."
The commotion suddenly resumed as if the people were trying to convince themselves. It was obvious that Dave hadn't thrown the first attack, yet they were making it seem like it had happened that way.
A group of around seven people walked towards him, all intending to kill. Dave's punch might have allowed him to knock one person down, but the question was whether or not he could survive seven at once.
'Think about your training.' Dave thought.
"Remember now, if you are ever in a situation where you are to face multiple people at once, the best thing you can do is run." The voice in Dave's head told him. But this information was useless to him now because he was completely surrounded.
*Bang *Bang *Bang
A small burst of bullets was suddenly heard from the hallway, making everyone freeze. There were many in the queue to get their guns. Around ten already had weapons in their hands, while others were in the middle of getting their guns, and some had grabbed melee weapons since there didn't seem to be enough guns for them all.
Bullets were shot at the feet of those towards the front and closest to the reception. Everyone froze as they saw guns pointed at them.
"Don't you even think of acting smart, if you do, then there will, of course, be a price to pay." Kun ordered.
One of the men with a handgun finger was twitching, he was nervous in the situation he was in, unsure about what to do, but a strange thought was running through his head.
'If I get rid of these attackers and all three of them now, I will be by the doctor's side. I can get rid of all my debt in one go and start collecting debts from others!' The man thought.
So he turned his gun and pointed it towards Kun, but the latter instantly noticed this and pulled his trigger. A short burst of bullets came out and hit the man on his knees, causing him to fall to the floor.
Blood streamed from the man's knees as he was on the floor, as he wailed and screamed in pain.
"Save me. Someone save me! Call the doctor! Quick, save me!" The man shouted.
"If any of you move, then there will be another bullet in you. I'm a good shot, I hit the knees on purpose. Now, drop the guns!" Kun ordered.
They all were reluctantly looking at each other, and after two seconds of them not following Kun's order, he lifted up the gun again, pointing it toward the entire group, causing them to immediately drop the guns on the ground.
Soon, the guns were gathered and placed in the toilet, and the room was then locked with a key by Dave, and after that, he took one gun for himself as well.
"Dave, now listen up, you did well back there, but now you're going to have a bigger job. You have to make sure these people stay here and don't go for the guns. Make sure everyone stays in line, and that means, even if you have to shoot them." Kun said, as he looked at the injured man on the floor who was bleeding out, he looked pale.
In truth, Kun didn't want to kill anyone, but they needed to make an example of someone to put a bigger fear into them compared to what the doctor had set. Dave didn't know if he was up to the task, but the truth was he needed to be. It didn't matter how he felt.
After that, Kun Pink and Cody continued down the hall, making their way to the elevator, hoping to find Brandon, and Kelly, saving them just in time from the chaos that was appearing.
"Hey!" Dave shouted. "They said don't move! If you move, I will shoot."
The people were slowly shuffling out, and Dave could hear a lot of talking between them.
"This is the guy from before, right, and he only has a handgun. He can't shoot us all if we rush him at once."
"But should we go after him, I mean, what if these guys get rid of the doctor? Wouldn't that mean we will be free from our debts?" Another one said.
"I can't believe you just said that. I will tell the doctor what type of person you are!"
It was starting to get rowdy, and Dave made up his mind as he pointed the gun toward a particular person and fired two shots. Everyone instantly stopped, and silence fell in the hall. When looking at where Dave had shot, they could see that he had killed someone.
'He.. he's dead.'
The person who Dave had shot was the man who was already bleeding out. He was screaming the most, and was also the main reason why the others were getting agitated. But now, without a doubt, he was dead.
Dave knew this needed to be done because after this, no one was going to step out of line.
----
The others had reached the elevator, but it turned out to be useless when they pushed the button. The elevator was out of service, and now it seemed like getting up to the doctor's office would be impossible this way.
"We are just going to have to take the stairs," Cody said as he ran ahead and started climbing the stairs quickly.
He was fast and agile, and even Pink struggled to keep up, but they weren't too far behind him. At that moment, as they turned around the corner of a staircase, a door was heard slamming open, and on the other side, there was a man with a gun.
Immediately, he fired, and the bullets headed towards Cody. But the next moment, Cody saw Pink appear before him, with her back facing the other way. The bullets went through her, and blood could be seen coming out of her mouth.
Cody's eyes widened as he saw this.
"Why...why would you save me? How will you survive now?!" Cody shouted.
Wiping the blood away from her mouth, Pink smiled as she turned around and fired bullets back, hitting the man cleanly and pushing him to slide against the wall.
"This is fine for me.. because I'm a zombie." Pink smiled.
