Chapter 121 - 121. Speech

Very good.

This doesn't help with my trust issues.

WHAT THE FUCK.

I smashed Henry's head that somehow came strangely close to me with the handle of the gun I had conjured up, hard enough for him to pass out and fall on top of me.

We had taken a pause inside the big open space. The other group was eating, and watched the incident of me getting attacked by my dog with apparent fear and curiosity.

Well, with the exception of Chelsea, who stood helplessly to the side, somehow not daring to come over.

"WHY DO YOUR CHILDREN CONSTANTLY TRY TO KILL MY GRANDSON? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR FAMILY?" My grandmother beat the unconscious Henry on top of me, with her walking stick while addressing the pale middle-aged pair, making me laugh.

She knows very well that they are not Henry's real parents, but she conveniently ignored the fact to pour her wrath onto these two innocent and already shaken people.

"Is that the usually 'aggressive behavior'?" I asked Mr. Devin raspily. My throat had healed from the fight with the little Vampire-Henrietta, only to be now damaged by my dog.

Henry's father came to his unconscious son, pulling him away from me.

"No. That would be too aggressive. They would usually sometimes wake from the daze to make a ruckus, but not actually try to kill someone. I don't understand why it is like this." He sighed deeply, his thin body looking as if breaking down every moment.

His wife stood with her daughter, holding her tightly, as if she needed an anchor to keep herself going.

Henriettas was also one of the people who looked on, just that she did so without any emotions, her face was still full of her own blood, and her clothes, which were an outdated long dress with leggings, were also all red, only that this was from my blood.

Henry was again placed against the cave wall, and my grandmother had brought me water, which she threw at me unkindly.

I needed more rest, more food, and then I could continue to flip the coin, finding out if we had discovered a way to fight the shadows in the future, which was better than experimenting on Henry. But it wasn't safe in here.

The torso hill showed that this cave was used by some monster deer. It would probably only be safe in the crater, inside one of these houses, but on our way there we could meet monsters as well.

If we could barricade the cave entrance, maybe we could stay. On the other hand, we needed more food and, more importantly, water.

I am truly scared to overuse my ability again and ending up helpless again.

"We are going in ten minutes, everyone get ready!" I said loudly, finding my throat to be okay again.

"Where to?" Redhead asked grumpily.

"To where we came from. To where the food is." I said, and that shut her up.

I also ate a snack before asking Henry's father to help me to get Henry on my back once again.

"I can carry him." He said, but I shook my head. This man looked like he would break into half under Henry's weight, besides, it is my dog we are talking about.

The day had been shitty enough, so I hoped that we would neither meet monsters nor for Henry to wake up and go around choking people again, especially if the people included me.

Hadn't that been an excellent opportunity for him to go and choke his sister to his heart's content?

But nooo.

Why is my life like this? Goddamn, give me a break.

Jeyjey was again carried by Baggy Jeans, and my grandmother walked beside me with her gun ready to fire.

While we walked down the passage that led to the forest, with Henry on my back, I flipped the coin and found the woman not turning eerie.

I spoke to the group behind me.

"If a monster shows up, you can hide, but don't run away! We have guns and will take them down, if necessary. Don't run around randomly; don't shove someone in front of a monster to save your skin—yes, I am talking about you, red hair! Don't leave people behind—and double yes, I am talking about you, Baggy Jeans!" I didn't turn around, but my voice was loud enough for him to understand. Now was the perfect moment for a speech because the barrier to the forest was soundproof.

"We have some kind of radar with us, that shows us if a monster shows up. If I say stop, then you stop. If I say quiet, you shut the fuck up. Nobody will be left behind, nobody will be put in danger, there is no cannon fodder among us, got it?" There were no cheers or anything, but just embarrassing silence. Well, I figured that no leader-halo had descended on me.

"We will go speedily, we will make it to the crater alive, and then we're gonna eat our fill! Everyone got it?" I went louder, trying it a second time.

"Yes!" Chelsea at least sounded a bit pumped up.

"Can you give us a gun?" Red-hair voice reached me, she was apparently forgetting that she had been just called out because of her behavior, or she knew that her image was already ruined, so it didn't matter if she got cheeky.

"Nope, we only have two." I said.

"Shouldn't someone other than the old lady have a gun?" She murmured from the very back, but I heard her just fine.

"Did you hear that, grandma? What to do if someone asks so charmingly for your gun?" I asked loud enough for everyone to hear, while chuckling.

"The gun is a gift from my grandson, but I can spare her a few bullets." The old dragon smiled, showing off her new teeth.

"Sparing the bullets to her head or her heart?" I asked.

"Both."

"But grandma, what if you have no ammunition left for the monsters?" I asked her in fake shock.

"Don't I have you?" She scoffed, and I nodded, repositioning Henry, who had slid down on my back a bit.

"Damn right! You have me, and I, have the second gun." I emphasized the last part so that they would hopefully understand.

Neither my grandma nor I were ever to be touched.

After our little dialogue, the silence behind us was more prominent than before, and I halted because we were one step away from the exit of the cave.

"Mr. Devin, come here for a minute, please." He was already behind me and my grandma, while his wife and daughter were more in the back.

He obliged and came closer.

"Mr. Devin. If your daughter acts up and endangers anyone, I will shoot her." I looked at his blue eyes and hoped he would understand.

"Haven't you rendered her handicapped enough?" His jaw clenched, and he looked at me like a bitter enemy. Okay, now we know that he is as dumb as his daughter is.

Mr. Devin's' facade soon collapsed, and he and he massaged the root of his nose in exhaustion.

"If she attempts to harm someone, it will be on me to stop her."

Hmm, very good. I nodded at him before hollering to the back.

"We will go now, everyone remember what I have said and behave!"
