Since I was going to work with Sasha during the mission, I took the time on the flight to talk more with her to get us synchronized.
We talked about a lot of different topics to learn more about each other.
I learned that she was also from an orphanage, and lived in a poor region like me.
However, different from me, she could not go to school because of her mutation.
She even tried to take the wings out through surgery once, but they grew back a month later.
Sasha was very docile and innocent. It made me like her more and more as we talked.
A great sense of responsibility surged inside me as we talked, a responsibility to protect her with all my strength during the mission.
We then arrived at the place near our mission. It was a four-hour flight.
Blake then took the lead and asked for the map to guide us to the enemy's base.
During the whole path, we avoided open spaces, including streets or something similar, and no one dared to speak a word.
We are in the middle of a war right now.
If any of us is heard by the enemy, we are all doomed.
After one hour of careful walking, we arrived at the enemy's camp.
It looked like a prison, with huge walls and cameras all over it, from the outside.
It was in the middle of the afternoon and it would be harder to get inside.
We then decided to hide ourselves in the surrounding and wait for the night.
Even after the night fell, we waited for the mood to get fully centered at the top of the sky, since we believed the security would be less tight at that time because most of them would go to sleep.
When the time came, we all headed calmly inside.
We could avoid the cameras and the walls with Jin's and Sasha's ability to fly.
Jin, in particular, had to come and go two times to bring me and Blake inside, while Sasha just carried Mallory.
When we got inside, Blake instructed.
"We take the left side, while Ethan and Sasha take the right side.
Search for every ammunition or food supplement to destroy and destroy it. Forget the weapons, it is already too hard to do the minimum, it would be too risky."
We then divided, me and Sasha went slowly through the gap's between the cameras.
Sasha also compressed her wing as much as she could to herself, it was basically to the side of a medium backpack. Therefore, we could move without much problem.
The camp was actually very spacious. So it wasn't that hard to move without being seen we arrived in an area with three big sheds.
We got inside the first one, and we saw some aircraft at the center and a lot of boxes with supplements around on the sides.
There were around a hundred boxes.
Shasha had been looking out to see if someone would come inside.
Luckily, there were just a few cameras in the shed, so we only avoided the boxes in seen of those cameras.
We opens a few of the boxes and figured that all of them were filled with ammunition.
I decided to take one of my gloves out and use my power to deteriorate them.
Since I couldn't control what object the chain function of my power would work, I didn't even try to just deteriorate the ammunition side, and deteriorate the whole wooden box.
After deteriorating the tenth box I already could feel a little tired from it, but I had to keep going.
I continued deteriorating the boxes.
However, I got careless, and accidentally deteriorate a box on the camera's vision by accident.
The alarm was activated in the whole camp.
The shed that was only illuminated by the moonlight got all illuminated by a red light that started to blink inside.
Sasha got so afraid of finding us out that she froze.
I decisively gave up our objective and screamed to Sasha to run away while running to the shed's exit.
But she couldn't move a single step. She was feeling too much fear.
I then turned around and got to her.
"Wake up! You are going to die if you don't follow me! Come! Now!" I said that while giving a slap on her face using my hand with the glove. I then took her hand and dragged her out afterward.
However, the moment we were about to leave a man appeared out of nowhere with a gun beside us. Since he was near us, he decisively tried to hit the gun on our head to knock us down.
At that moment, I used my quick reflexes and dodged the weapon. Then I put my hand without the glove on his chest.
His uniform then got deteriorated in moments and I touched the man's skin.
The man then froze and screamed in pain while his body changed color.
In five seconds his screams stopped and he fell on the floor filled with cracks.
The man then shattered when he touched the floor.
I killed a person. I really cause the death of a person.
Moreover, it was a normal person, that was not cursed by god.
It was even favored by god in some sense.
And I killed him.
Does it add to my sins?
What the fuck have I done?
I'm a monster!
"Ethan!!" Sasha screamed in my ear.
I then woke up from my thoughts.
I have to survive!
I took her hand again and started to run away again.
We ran in the direction we came from.
However, when we were running a group of people appeared with guns pointing at us.
Before they could shoot, I quickly jumped with Sahsa to a cover on our side.
We then ran in the other direction, to avoid those guns.
We ran to the left side, where the other people were.
On the way we found even more people with guns coming from the place we came from and continues running to the left side of the base.
Luckily all the cursed blood usually has inhuman reflexes, so either I or Sasha could avoid getting shot.
