Chapter Seven
Unwanted Company
The family was waiting for me at the end of this alleyway, shared expressions of fear and hope dancing across all of their faces. The fear stemmed from a myriad of possibilities, including me deciding to dine on their flesh.
Why were they thinking like that? It just wasn't natural. Okay sure, if they were wild humans living on died up crap somewhere out in the dead zone, then the scared mice would be thinking along those lines. In here though, these jokers were domesticated. They were used to hunters breathing down their necks. Unless these bastards were up to something. I stopped walking and glared at the four of them. Could that be it? Something to do with these freaky flashbacks. The first travel back could be put down to all of that poisoned stuff coursing through my arteries. I wasn't going to put the second one down to that though. No fucking way.
It was obvious to me now. Those four were manipulating me for some reason. Delving where they didn't belong, looking for information. It made me shudder to think where those mind thieves had been. I ought to kill them all now.
"Colin, are you troubled?"
Those four concerned words stopped my risen fury stone dead. The wealth of empathy flowing from the woman would have melted even the toughest of hearts. Linda really did care about my health. Oh sure, she only needed me operating at peak levels so I could dispatch this town leader. It's not like she fancied me or anything. Oh hell, I was meeting myself going around a corner here. Thinking like they did gave me a headache equal to a major earthquake. A part of me is telling myself that they weren't digging inside, not daring to risk being detected. After all, I was their saviour, their secret weapon. My involvement would ensure the evil in this town would be forever vanquished or some bullshit.
"I'm just dandy, Linda," I replied, even managing a smile. "Lead on, fair maiden. I'm eager to get this over and done with."
Without a single word all four of them turned around and continued to make their way along the narrow stone tunnel. Not one of the family were making any effort to guard their thoughts now, they were all focussed on reaching some halfway house close to where we were. The images of a collection of ancient red shipyard containers filled their heads. I had no idea what this place was, but the family were certainly hoping to reach this place intact.
These herd animals wouldn’t expose their backs unless they trusted me not to kill them. It left me wondering if there could be another force at work here, something that I hadn’t even considered.
“Either that, or they think they’ve fooled me,” I whispered to myself. I felt myself ready to sigh again. I really did need to put all of these conspiracy theories in a box where they belonged. Whether I liked this situation was irrelevant. I needed these four to help me locate my Danielle, meaning that I needed to behave.
