The bald man breathed out another cloud of smoke before flicking his cigarette away.Both youths paled when they saw the brutal way in which the bald man killed the soldiers.
His pair of emotionless red eyes wandered over the two youths for a second, sending a shiver through their spines but he ignored them.
"We have what we came for, you can call them back Linda." Ordered the bald man.
A woman with brown short hair saluted, "Yes, General!"
She put her finger on her forehead, closing her eyes for a few seconds before opening them again, nodding.
The bald man didn"t spare the two youths another glance, he and his group faded slowly into the darkness.
The tall youth destroyed the debris beneath him in anger, veins popping out on his whole body.
"Those f*ckers! I will kill them! All of them!" Howled the tall youth towards the sky.
The blond youth sat down, his whole body was still trembling.
"Shut up will you? We can count ourselves lucky to be still alive..."
The tall youth wanted to refute but he couldn"t, just thinking about the scary bald man send shivers through his whole body. He calmed down, taking a seat beside the blond youth.
"What a bunch of monsters, Thomas his power...."
The blond youth nodded, "That was magnetism, no doubt about it. That bald man is like Magneto from Marvel..."
The tall youth glanced surprised at his partner, "Are you sure Thomas? It looked like telekinesis to me."
Thomas thought about it, "You are right Jan, that could also be the case...Either way that doesn"t change the fact that his powers are way too ridiculous..."
"Not only him, but the other two were also way above us, just how many crystals did they eat?"
Thomas sighed, "I would like to know that too, one could be a coincidence, but three? And what about the others? The thought about it is frightening..."
Soon more soldiers arrived at their position, their faces became pale when they saw all the corpses lying around.
Thomas looked puzzled at them, "Why are you guys here? Shouldn"t you be defending the camp?"
A soldier that looked like a leader stepped forwards, "The zombies did suddenly retreat."
Thomas sighed, "We got at least the crystals from the dead zombies, you killed a lot of them right?"
The leader"s expression turned unsightly, "No, the horde took the bodies with them when they retreated...."
"d.a.m.n!" Shouted the tall youth.
"That confirms that they can also control hordes of zombies, I think it was that chick named Linda...who are they and where did they come from?" Thomas felt suddenly very exhausted.
A soldier came out of the building, "They took away some guns, heavy weapons and enough ammunition to cause some serious trouble." Everyone groaned in pain, every single weapon was precious and important for their survival.
"They came from the north, at least that"s what I think." Spoke a female voice from the background.
Everyone turned their heads towards the woman stepping out of the dark.
Both youths greeted her, "Did you pick up their trails?" Asked Thomas.
The woman nodded, "Yes, they went north and their are fast..."
"We need to tell the others about them." Spoke the tall youth.
Thomas went with his hand through his blond hair, "The north huh?"
His gaze turned towards the north, everyone else did the same, their eyes filled with dread.
Benji was currently with his 18 elite puppets inside a car park far in the north, he was inspecting the boxes with his flashlight.
"This much should be enough for my purpose, now there is only one thing still missing..."
Benji took two P9 pistols, he was very familiar with them as he used them daily in his service time. He put them inside the holsters on each leg. He didn"t know why but he somehow felt complete with them.
"They can"t compare to my Gravity Body but, it just feels right to have them...I will call it a day now and get some rest before raiding the west later. I"m curious about the mutated zombies Roland mentioned."
It was almost 4 am when Benji entered his house, he walked straight towards the kitchen that had still its light on.
There he found the trio drinking his Martini liquor. They weren"t surprised seeing him, Roland stood up, his red eyes looking into Benji"s eyes.
"Thank you Benji." It was a simple sentence but it was sincere and Roland meant it.
Kevin and Jenny stood up too and thanked him.
Benji smiled at them, "Nothing to thank, I hope it wasn"t too painful for you."
The three flinched, Kevin pushed his gla.s.ses up, "Are you kidding? It was h.e.l.l!"
Jenny agreed by nodding.
"But was it worth it?" Asked Benji with a knowing smile.
The trio exchanged looks, "Yeah it was worth it, a million times worth it!" Answered Roland.
"Hahaha that"s good, I see you guys are enjoying my Martini." Commented Benji as he looked at the almost empty bottle.
The three became embarra.s.sed.
"Err sry for that we wanted to drink something stronger than water or juice but we can"t get drunk." Admitted Roland.
"How did it go for you in the east?" Asked Jenny.
The other two became curious too.
"It went well, we got what we wanted from them." Answered Benji.
The trio looked at him with suspicion, "Who is "we"?"
Benji smiled mysteriously, "The group I"m part of, we control the north."
His words stunned them, "You control North Dortmund?" Asked Roland unsure.

"Not me, the group I"m part of. " Answered Benji, "This is funny haha."
"Can we join too?" Kevin pushed up his gla.s.ses, he smelled an opportunity.
Benji stared at him and shook his head, "You don"t want to be part of us."
"Huh why not?"
"Because that club is only reserved for my puppets..." Thought Benji.
"You need to be a soldier to join, did you serve more than 4 years in the army?" Benji came up with that harsh recruitment.
They shook their head.
"It"s alright then, you can"t join us. You should go and sleep, the changes stabilize better when you rest." Suggested Benji.
They agreed and everyone went soon to their own rooms to sleep.
Benji stayed up for two more hours, he waited until the three finally fell asleep.
He observed them with his inner eye, he was curious about something and wanted to try it out now that he had the chance.
A red string grew out from his head, it went through the wall into the room where Roland was soundly sleeping.
They would be shocked and scared if they could see the number of red strings coming out of Benji"s head.
The red string made its way to Roland and tried to attach itself to his red bright spot inside his head.
Benji wanted to try out if he could also control others besides the mindless zombies.
Roland shot up in panic the moment the string tried to attach itself to him, a shiver ran through his body and he looked confused around. He couldn"t find anything amiss and shook his head.
Roland fell soon asleep again, he speculated that he had a bad dream.
An excited glint flashed through Benji"s eyes, "It wasn"t a complete failure, I sensed that one string alone is too weak. I only need to increase the amount of strings to take control over him. Not bad, this might become handy in future."
He leaned back into his bad and closed his eyes to get some sleep.
