Chapter 12 - Episode 3 (The Red Rider) (Part 2)

The Red Rider and I smiled and the man sighed.

But again, everyone started surrounding and making a crowd around The Red Rider and the man and I were pushed away and we both just smiled with a sweat, The Red Rider actually did something which we can't even do, we guessed. He was eliminating monsters while we were just taking the Invaders out. His task was bigger, we guessed and didn't try to enter or try to show strength and what we did.

But The Red Rider was annoyed this time and he pushed everyone aside and shouted, "Let me talk with the boy!!!"

Everyone became silent.

"And just think," And I expressed my idea, "If monsters appeared once again and everyone remain together, everyone will start dying and he can't save anyone. Think about it."

The man was surprised by the idea and everyone made a distance from The Red Rider and he smiled and walked to me once again.

"So, what do you think, what we should do right now?" The Red Rider asked and I looked at everyone and then at the sky, it was going to be completely dark in a few minutes, the night was going to arrive.

I started walking away, moving to the entrance of the station and said, "You should stay here for this night, everyone are still injured and some are still unconscious, it's better to provide the treatment to them so that they could leave tomorrow. You will handle the monsters."

The Red Rider and the man found the plan worth it. But they didn't understand...

"But where you are going?"

I stopped, looked at them and answered, "I am going to my hometown, I want to see about my mother and my little sister."

"How much time would you take to reach your hometown?" But The Red Rider asked something strange, but I didn't think much and replied, "Like...four days of walking."

"I will send you to your hometown tomorrow, but stay here for night. I will take you by my bike and by the evening, you will reach."

I stopped, thought about that for a second. I couldn't understand why he is becoming too kind to me? It looked too much strange, but I just accepted his offer and I started walking back to the station.

Players lying on the ground finally opened their eyes...but their eyes widened, when they saw...zombies and monsters were surrounding who would be almost ten thousand. They were just waiting for them to wake up.

<"Players, I guess you have got a good nap. Now will you play the next task?">

<"This task is for everyone, whether you're a Invader or Player. Just, to keep the game fair, the monsters and zombies haven't attacked you as you were unconscious, but as now you all are awake...All the best, Players!!!">

Everyone started waking up, but after reading the message and watching the zombies and monsters walking towards them... they just wished to sleep once again.

"...Do we even have a chance...to fight against that number of monsters and zombies?"

At the Station, everyone was resting and a few of the passengers were thankfully doctors and they were also taking care of the injured and also of themselves.

"...We will need some instruments for check up and taking basic treatments..." The doctor looked at The Red Rider, the man and me and asked, "Can you, bring them?"

The Red Rider had no problem, he stood but I caught his wrist and said, "I will go, but not The Red Rider."

The man looked at me and he also got an idea why. He also stood and said, "Yes, I will go with this kid. What if suddenly monsters and zombies appeared, everyone of us will die so he should stay and we will go. I know the nearest clinic or hospital."

The doctor stood and said, "In a clinic, you will find everything. So just listen what we want right now if you are bringing them."

The plan was fixed, the man and I will go and find a clinic or hospital, and then find the stuff and return...alive.

The man and I were ready to leave, but The Red Rider stopped and said, "Go with my bike, you will reach quickly and would be less in danger from the zombies and monsters."

The man and I turned back, and suddenly The Red Rider's red bike came flying and stopped behind us.

Everyone finally realized why he is called The Red Rider.

The man sat at the bike first and I sat behind him. The man was giggling from inside in his mind, "I have never seen such a bike! How much would it cost--"

But the bike ran on its own without any control and the man left the station screaming.

The man was speechless, he couldn't even open his eyes at the speed the bike was running. But I tried to look at the control and handles and there was a question at the screen.

<"Please provide the location of your destination.">

"Hey! Where's the hospital, what is the address?" I shouted and the man still couldn't understand what's happening, but he just answered, "First right for ten meters from the station then right again and then left after ignoring two left side roads and then move straight for ten meter."

Suddenly the bike stopped, and in no time... we were actually in front of a huge building. The man jumped from the bike and he was motion sick. I came out of the bike and started running to the silent hospital and shouted, "It's better to come with me, or die with motion sickness and monsters!"

The man was scared, even if he can't move, he had no other choice. He ran and continued following me.

The man and I entered in the hospital and rushed to the rooms...but both of us were shocked like the others were.

The doctors and nurses...were hiding in the rooms, looking afraid and now shocked by seeing us.
