DEMON: Within Darkness

CHAPTER 14: Jade's Dragon Gate Inn

Directly looks over to Adam and curious with concern in her voice asks,

"Do you know who this psychopath is?"

Just as stumped and concerned, takes a moment to mull it over in thoughts. Thinking to himself as once a kid and now in a position a step away into the reality of being forced to grow up or allow death to take him. Samantha snaps her fingers and waves her hands in front, trying to get his attention. It's clear he's in a daze, borderline traumatized and who wouldn't be with that type of ender statement. Eventually shaking the negative thoughts and looks at Samantha, stating in a apologetic voice,

"Sorry... I, I... What did you ask me again?"

Rolls her eyes in frustration but tries to be understanding,

"That Psychopath, do you know him because he clearly knows you, which is frightening!"

Shakes his head trying to stay focus, but the thought of personally dying is intimidating and stares into her eyes to showcase his emotions with his straight up answer,

"Seriously, I don't know what's going on, nor do I know who this person is. Honestly with everything that has been happening this week has been such a mental strain; it feels like it's been more like months and everything that I'm still trying to process being real to just messed up hallucinations."

Bobby cellars his voice, sounding nervous, due to the wrath of Samantha; speaks up in hopes to get the two back on track,

"Heeeyy yooouu guuuyys!!!"

They both tune in sounding frustrated, annoyed and on edge yells,

"WHAATTT?!!"

Cowers but tries to showcase some courage, sternly stating while pointing to a rumbling noise starting to increase with certain things rattle from the vibrations,

"STAMPEDE!!!"

Looking to where their stoner friend appears traumatized and horrified to what he sees; they vocalize their shocked expressions,

"SHHHIIIITTT!!!"

Hundreds to thousands of Crazies come barreling through and with the massive horde being impacted by their forceful nature, begin to lose their structures, collapsing to the earthquake like vibrations. There's someone above the courthouse holding a megaphone. He looks like a hillbilly in shabby clothes and unkept hygiene. It appears he's giving instructions to the mindless hordes roaming violently through.

There's a single flash from his whereabouts and Bobby yells while forcing his friends onto the ground,

"GET DOWN!"

Taken by surprise to the aggressive behavior of their friend, to then realize a split second later, a bullet ricocheted, right where Adam once stood. In a panicked outburst,

"JESUS CHRIST!"

Samantha bluntly yells,

"That psychopath just shot at use!"

Bobby bluntly states,

"NOOO SHIT, SHERLOCK!!!"

Emotions are high as she jolts back in anger towards Bobby,

"JUST BECAUSE WE'RE BEING SHOT AT, IF YOU INSULT ME AGAIN, I'll SHOOT YOU MYSELF!!!"

Adam tries to cool the situation, but she turns on him next, questioning his loyalty and his choice of enemies,

"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO THIS ASSHOLE, TO HAVE THIS MUCH HATRED FOR YOU?!!"

Shrugs his shoulders and yells over the increasing noise of the Crazies rushing closer,
