The Light Reapers: End of the World - Page 54

“You dumb fucks, we have a sniper trained on you. Make a move and die. Check them.” Priest covered the men while Shaw and Doc searched them. They found a few blades and a snub nose .357 magnum.

One man was bitching the entire time, so Priest kneeled down and spoke to him. He keyed his comms so the team could hear. “Hey goat fucker,” Priest slapped him a couple times to get his attention, “You know your piece of shit friend over there, the one with the back of his skull laying all over the ground? Well, I am sure you would be happy to know that the sniper that killed him is an Israeli. Actually, that sniper is an Israeli woman!”

The man struggled and spit on the ground. Priest knew this would really piss these guys off. The man who spat on the ground began calling Lia all kinds of derogatory names. Priest reached over and bounced the man’s face off the pavement, knocking out several teeth and breaking his nose.

Shaw and Doc had just finished cuffing the remaining men with zip ties, when Lia came over the comms. “Priest, we have infected coming our way. They must have heard all the fun. I got approximately two dozen, maybe a few more, about four blocks to the northwest. They are between us and our Humvee, so we lost our transport out of here.”

“Do you have a shot if we need you to buy us sometime?”

“I will in a few minutes.” Lia answered.

“Okay, we can’t wait for exfil. Shaw, check these vehicles and see if one is still operational.”

Priest kneeled down to one of the other men, “Who is in charge of your little glee club, here?” The man looked around. He slapped the man, “Who is running the show for you assholes?” The man looked over at the guy whose nose Priest just broke. “Excellent, we are only dealing with two of you.” Priest then pulled his Walther PPQ and shot the other five of the remaining men in the head.

“Sarge, we got one vehicle here in great shape,” Shaw yelled.

“Ok, great. Lia, come on down and let’s roll out.”

Priest and Doc loaded the two ISIS members in the truck as Lia came running over to them. “Where is the virus?” Priest barked at the leader. The guy just looked at him. Priest busted the guy in the mouth with the barrel of his pistol, knocking a couple more teeth out. The other squirrelly guy talked nervously and fast and told him it was in the second truck.

Priest ran over and pulled out a medium-sized hard-shell case. He ran back to the running truck just as Lia got there. She loaded her sniper rifle in the back as Priest dropped the case in. He looked at her, “You want to ride shotgun or you want babysitting duty?” She walked over to look in the back seat at the two ISIS members. They noticed her look at them and they glared back in disgust.

“Oh, I’ll take babysitting duty.”

“I thought you would say that.” They both laughed as they got in and the truck. Shaw pulled out of the warehouse area and headed southwest.

The ISIS leader seemed to have calmed down some. The woman sitting next to him with a pistol leveled against his temple seemed to have subdued him. Priest didn’t know which was deadlier, the gun pointed at him or the stare Lia had locked on him. He was laughing on the inside but didn’t let a smile come to his mouth as he was turned around looking at the leader.

“Where did you guys get the virus from?” The man didn’t answer. “Look, I don’t have time for your bullshit, so either answer my questions or I will fuck you up six ways to Sunday. It’s just that simple, so I will repeat. Where did you get the virus from?” He waited a couple minutes, and the man said nothing. Priest quickly pulled his combat knife and sliced the man’s knee deep into the joint cartilage just below the kneecap. The man screamed in pain, his eyes teared up and looked like he was getting dizzy.

Priest slapped him, “Don’t pass out on me. That cut I just gave you is extremely painful, but since I went into the joint cartilage there is almost no bleeding. That way, you suffer extreme pain, but you won’t bleed out. Cool, huh? Now, we can go at this for as long as you want, but I will get the information I want. Again, where did you get it the fucking virus?” Nothing. Priest drove the pommel of the knife in the middle of the man’s chest just enough to crack his sternum in half. The man screamed in agony.

“Whew, now I know that mother fucker seriously hurt…... hell, I can feel it over here. With that broken sternum, it will hurt to move, breathe, talk, sleep, you name it. You care to answer me now?”

The man tried to take a deep breath and winced in pain. “I give you nothing.” Priest shot his knife out and took out the man’s right eye.

He screamed, “Go ahead and kill me.”

Priest chuckled, “Oh no, I wouldn’t do that. That would be cruel.” He shot out and punched the man in his broken sternum. The man howled in pain, and Priest asked again. No answer.

“Stop the fucking car,” Priest commanded. He got out and Lia slid out. He pulled the man out and threw him on the ground. “You tell me where you got the virus and I’ll kill you quick and painless. If not, I will blind you right here and leave you for the infected.”

The man thought for a second, “Ok, ok. I tell you and you send me to Allah. We stole the virus from the lab in southeast Turkey.”

“Ok, what happened with all these people turning into monsters? I thought the virus was just supposed to make people able to control.”

“It was, but the collection of scientists that were working on it, changed the formula into effecting the basic impulses of the brain. The virus isolates the violent impulses and brings them to their consciousness. It blocks all other emotional receptors including fear, compassion, pain and others.” The man was struggling to talk with the pain he was in.

“How did it get released?”

“One canister was damaged on the journey from Turkey. When we took it on the plane and airports, it leaked out and spread the virus quickly to all parts of the world.”

“Was it your plan to decimate the entire planet?”

“No, things went wrong because the release was to be controlled.”

“Ye
