The Last Survivor

Chapter 6

Raj was awakened by a soft tap on his shoulder , he opened his eyes to find Preeti standing beside him.

"I was sent to wake you up , did I scare you ?" she asked softly

"Absolutely not , you did a great job" Raj said as he looked around "Did you get enough sleep ?"

"Well , sort of" Preeti hesitated "There were rats and insects , it was scary"

"Aw ! , I"m sorry" Raj said "Where"s everybody ?"

"There on the outside" Preeti sided away for Raj to slip through "Um...Raj ?"

"Yeah ?" Raj said , he could see Preeti"s smile fade "What happened , sweetheart ?"

"Um...There are some....guys waiting on the door , that"s where everybody is"

"Huh ?" Raj suspected and his heart fluttered by the close call he made this morning "Um....I"ve gotta check some things out so you should probably hang around here only , I"ll call you when I"m done , Okay ?" Raj said and Preeti replied the same.

Raj opened the door of the pickup and stepped outside in the morning breeze.

Crows continued to quack their unpleasant melody which was getting annoying by the minute.

Raj went walking to the metal gate where the group was cluttered around and was talking furiously.

"We can"t let these strange piece of s.h.i.ts be in our compound" Manjeet said so high that even the two men standing outside the gate flinched with embarra.s.sment.

"Dad please calm down , we are talking about this , all right" Harpreet tried to calm her father down but it was no use , he was ready for some fresh arguement.

"And then what ? Ah ! , were gonna stand around here all day blabbering about these smucks whether to let them in or-or to shoot them out" Manjeet roared with anger.

"Whoa , whoa , whoa, hold your a.s.s down there s.h.i.tty piece of s.h.i.t , we"re just here for a place to survive and we will not like the way you"re talking to us" The man with a yellow shirt and a blue jeans with a zero cut on his head spoke up.

"What did you call me ? You stinky rat !" Manjeet lost it , he stomped away muttering abusive words under his breath.

"Sorry about that but he started it" The middle-aged man with a puff on his front above his forehead wearing an olive shirt and red trousers spoke up.

"Well , yeah , he had it coming" Fa Heng spoke up now wearing a red sports cap unb.u.t.toned at the back.


"What a bas-" Devansh never finished his sentence when Harpreet glared at him.

"Look , amigos , we"re just survivors like you and we just want a place to stay in , and also if you like we"ll move outta here the following morning, Deal ?" The way he spoke the word "Deal" sounded pretty familiar to Raj.

"So ?" The middle-aged man tapped his shoes on the pavement with a steady rhythm.

"Well , Okay" Naina said , Harpreet glared at her, "Unless you give your weapons to us , anything , pistol , revolver, rifles"

The two men gave their weapons to Naina and she walked off with them.

Harpreet pointed at the machetes they were carrying and pa.s.sed a hand.

"Oh please , for G.o.d"s sake , enough already , we need something to protect ourselves" The young man said moving his hand throughout his hair.

Harpreet withdraws her hand and walked off.

"Man ! By the way I"m Dan and this is my uncle Sam" Dan said as Raj opened the metal gate and let them in "Thanks"

"I"m Raj , this is Anil , his wife Kajal and his son Bird , this man is Fa Heng , and the lady who took your weapons was Naina , the rude lady was Harpreet, that old loudspeaker was Harpreet"s Dad Manjeet , this teddy bear is Devansh and-" Raj was interrupted when Preeti came by Raj"s side.

"...this is Preeti , only little sweetheart in this darn camp" Raj finally finished.

"Yeah , he"s got a sixth sense for humor , so I don"t think you"ll mind" Anil said scratching his head

They both nodded and smiled and there was something uncanny about it....

Raj felt silent and then his heart leapt into his throat....

Maybe these were the guys that I saw earlier...

Does this mean.....

That they"re gonna kill everybody here?

"Maybe we should cool down for a second" Dan slipped pa.s.s us waving a look of curtsey in his eyes which seemed totally unnatural....

Totally Alien...

Fully Dark and evil.....
