《Who Cares!!?》Chapter 20

Advertisement

Alex went to the zoo on the weekend.

The zoo was one of Alex’s favorite places to visit.

Going there had always given him peace of mind. He spent his afternoon there seeing many animals and enjoying the food there.

In the evening, there was an emergency announcement in the reptile area. Mainly the snake isle. A snake had gotten out.

As soon as this was announced, there was panic.

Alex was in the snake isle and was in the line of getting out that he heard the guard saying something.

‘You know the snake that got out, I heard that it’s an extremely dangerous one.’

To which the other guard replied.

‘Its venom is so potent that it can kill more than 200,000 rats.’

‘I heard that too, we might have to kill it.’

Alex heard all of the conversation. He had always loved animals.

‘I guess I am about to do something really stupid!!’

Alex sneaked got out of the line to look for the snake.

Luckily, he didn’t have to search much. As he was looking through the bushes, the snake itself bit his leg.

’Ouch!!! What was that?

Alex looked, and he saw something black near this ankle.

Snakes, when threatened, can often deal with a dry bite, meaning only injecting fangs and not the venom.

That snake, however, wasn’t that friendly.

Alex felt something coursing through his veins, and he instantly felt like he was burning but only for 10 seconds.

The snake thought his work was done and started to slither away but felt something grabbing his tail.

Alex had simply picked up the snake.

The snake was surprised that his victim was still standing.

He bit Alex again with full force injecting everything he had, yet, Alex was still standing, he felt a little dizzy and light-headed but nothing more.

‘Come on, that’s not nice. I’m trying to save you while others are trying to kill you.’

The snake had a grudge for humans.

Being kidnapped from his natural habitat just to be displayed in some cage, isn’t the dream life. Even though he was out of venom, he was still not willing to let go of Alex’s arm and wrapped itself around it.

The snake was trying to break his arm, but to his surprise, it was sturdier than expected.

Alex saw that as a sign of cooperation as the snake was not biting him anymore.

‘I guess he got the point.’

Alex secretly carried the snake to its respective cage and simply grabbed his body and pulled it away.

The snake was dumbfounded to the immense strength Alex or rather, a human had. The cage door was open, explaining how he had gotten out.

The snake was now scared of humans and decided to accept his fate in the cage.

The day was over and evening had arrived.

Alex was going home, as he walked, he sensed something behind him. He decided to take a detour to his home and took a left turn and walked in the direction opposite to his house.

As another corner arrived, he took another left turn. After doing it two more times and he was back at the place from where he started making it a complete round trip.

He kept hearing footsteps about 10 meters away. A person can sometimes awaken a 6th sense when he knows that he’s being watched or followed.

Alex rapidly sprinted into an alley, and the person followed.

When he was deep into the alley, he looked at the opening, and no one was there. Alex was getting tired of being stalked, to make things easier, he announced.

“Mr. creepy stalker, please come out now. Look, there is no one here.”

To his amazement, it worked.

A man, judging by his body structure, appeared in front of him. He was wearing a hood in such a way that his force couldn’t be seen. He spoke in a heavy voice.

“Mr. Alexander Dean, you were bitten by Parademansia Microlepidota of the Elapidae family.”

'That’s a mouth full, how do you even pronounce that?”

The man continued, ignoring Alex’s comment.

“You were bitten twice, and yet you didn’t need any antivenom to recover yourself, why is that?

The man’s voice clearly indicated that he was at least 30 years old.

“Dude! I know you are my age, talk normally.”

Alex had only hunch backing up his claim, but the man’s reaction proved Alex had hit the nail on the head.

“H-how did y-?”

‘Who Cares? Now tell me, what do you want?’

The person continued to speak in the heavy voice, but now it was slightly shaken.

‘F-fine, I want to k-’

Alex purposely interrupted him again. To get him to speak in his real voice.

‘Lose up!!’

The person, highly annoyed, finally spoke in his real voice.

“Okay! I want to know how you are still alive.”

It was the voice of a teenager of about 17-18 years old. He pulled back his hood, and there was an angrily annoyed yet fair face of a young British with black hair.

--How did he follow me here and knew I was bitten by a snake? I made sure no one would see me. Even if he did, how does he know my name?

Alex decided to get some more information out of him.

‘I think it’s custom to first introduce yourself since you already know my name.’

The teenager, to show goodwill responded,

‘Very well, I am of the royal family of the house of Windsor, my name is Jason Windsor B-’

“Too long, I’m going to call you, STUCK UP!!’

Alex was testing Jason’s patience, and it was about to run out.

‘Please do not address me so informally and also…’

Jason yelled.

‘LET ME FINISH MY SENTENCES’

‘If I remember correctly, the Windsor family is the same one where Queen Elizabeth, the Queen of England, is from.’

‘That is correct.’

--I have never heard of a prince named Jason, but if what he’s saying is true, what is someone from the royal family doing here?

‘Why is someone from the royal family here?’

‘That is none of your concern.’

‘Then I don’t need to tell you anything!’

‘I am afraid I can’t let you go. All of the information I gathered leads to you, run away subject. Although you were a side mission, you are still important.’

Those last words made Alex take this a little seriously.

‘Who are you?’

’I am someone who can help you, I can protect and save you from Jira’

That was the first time Alex had heard the name after the procedure.

‘Oh really, you think you can protect me?’

Alex now knew Jason wasn’t someone he could take lightly. If he is who he says he is, he must be a capable guy.

Alex decided to test him.

’I can assure you full safety, you may not realize, but Jira will come for you.’

‘Fine, I will tell you all I know and listen to what you have to say if you can catch me that is.’

‘I don’t have ti-’

’Ready, GO!!”
