《Lethal Virtue》Chapter 15: Black Death
Advertisement
The crew were already in their cars and a luminous sunlight went through the visor and a grizzly yet never sleep Piers was driving in his van, he mind clear of any trouble as he went down the road, when a brief moment of pause and thought pressure to his brain, he went to one side of the road and stopped, he picked up the phone and gave a phone call.
Seven seconds later Jovi picks up the phone, "Jovi, in the information that we got from Frank "The banker" there was a little detail that might be important to us as for our common friend John" Piers said momentarily, "Yeah? And what's that?" Jovi said.
"You remember the news and the information in the news and the one he gave us, both explained that they worked on a really close timing, fast speed, work, no time wasted they just went in and out" Piers said as he rattle around his finger by touching the fuel gauge, "seems like you are onto something" Jovi said, " I am sure as a cow walk am', I mean Jovi, look at the details here, there is clearly a pattern between that gas mask of his and the timer he gave, it happened the same thing on that building where the murders happened few days ago, I know it's an assumption but it's the closest to who could of been doing something as planned" Piers said with a grudge on his facial figure.
Moments after he explained his assumptions and they being near home Piers took the first glanced and very flabbergasted by the entities in front of him, he quickly paralleled parked up next to the street, There were two special operators of Cytro, wearing their common protector black color armor and their complete all mask from back to front of the head and their X-cross in front, they were always around the city as "cops" brought by Cytro but there has been a huge increase of their appearances around the Grand Vilstine since Stravas came back.
Piers stayed quiet while he was inspecting on the reason why they were in front of their house, he kept Jovi on hold on his phone as he picked up to his ear "Do not come near the house, there seems to be cops around it, but the ones brought by Cytro, tell the others not to come too, I will watch from afar to see their actions" He replied, but before hanging out the phone he said one last thing "Oh and tell Michael and Victor to Ambush Avoy, it's something we prepared for occasions like this one, they'll you everything on what to do next" then he hung up.

He moved his vehicle aside from the parking spot and moved the car to the front of the house slowly and patiently, never removing his eyes from the two "Cops", then he switched the button to lift up the garage door, this action surprised the two cops which stared at the garage door and pull out their MK116 rifles and pointed them at the garage, but they saw nothing so their moved their eyes to the other side and there was Piers who got in front of them with his car which stopped, then he just stared at both of the cops then the cops replied with a simple nod and put down their guns, then moved away from the garage as Piers was able to park inside.
He grabbed his keys, phone and Pistol (for security purpose like at that moment), then he got out and closed the car's door, then he moved along on foot to where both Cytro Cops were, "Hello Officers" He said with a smile, then the two cops stared looked at him but Piers could not see their expressions due to their helmets "This will be troublesome" He thought to himself, then they looked at him up and down then came back to looking at his face "Detective Piers Donovan of the BOP" One of the cops said.
"You both know me then, so, why did you both came around my house sniffing around huh?" Piers said, one of the cops gave a little chuckle then both pretended to look around which Piers noticed, "We were just doing daily inspection on houses, the laws that the Cytro company changed said that now each day a group of 2 of us will go around checking for the safety of civilians, so we were not just looking specifically at your house Detective, besides we were just about to leave" one of them said.
"You guys were about to leave?" Piers replied "But why not just come in inside and take a little apple tea eh?", "No no but thanks for the offer" one of them waved both of his hands to show denial, "Oh well that is fine, well see ya' both and have a safe security check!" Piers said as he smiled. They said their goodbyes as they walked away to the next house, then Piers walked to the front of his door and took a big breath in and out, he put out his key from his back pocket, pressed against the keyhole. But the door, was unlocked.

His breathing started to get slowly faster and faster, as he opened the door and took a glance inside, there was no one from his point of view in that section, so he walked inside and pulling out his Pistol with the safety off, then crossing across the room and walking as if his life depended on the sound of footsteps he crossed to one of the corners. And there was the intruder.
As fast as an instinct his first response was the typical of any cop in a danger situation, "Identify yourself!" He said as he aimed his gun to the man in front of him, the man was just putting his fingers on the wood furniture which contained pictures of Piers wife and himself, but no one else, the man did not even turn himself to look at Piers and continued to stare at the photograph.
Piers still pointing at the man but this time he had his finger on the trigger slowly, his heart rate increased drastically as he was thinking of the worse, then as a sudden hard wind to distract anyone, a crow entered through the main entrance, then Piers stopped his aim and looked to his back as the black death was coming from it, then the crow stopped and grasped on the man's shoulder. Then the man turned around, it was Hades.
His Pushed his black grasses and moved closer to the already chocked Piers, "Hello Detective Donovan, or may I call you, Piers, look put your gun down and let me get straight into the point, I have read about you and your life yesterday thanks to the information provided by the Government before me coming here, Priorities and all that kind of shit, anyways two of our Cytro administrators were just having a little dinner around and they took a glanced at you, and your friends".
Piers was just staring and concentrated on what this mysterious person was in front of him, he was from Cytro and most likely one of their "Cleansing" employees, so he was ready to take action at the moment of despair, then fading but still sounding was the voice of the man in front of him entering on his thoughts and processing through each words he is saying, "So to them being honest a group as the one as all of you sitting around in a city of chaos such as this one well… it feels way suspicious, so they told me and now I am here. But Well as to the security of our civilians and the one of yourself I have decided to just intrude in your house" Hades says as he looked as he was two steps away from Piers.
Piers perplexed as the thought of them actually being allowed to enter peoples house and their allowance on what is braking the law but this law was useless to them thanks to "Power and money", then Hades continued with a may more deeper yet serious voice which seemed intentional for him to hear that Piers will not lie, "Where are the others" He said, "They simply went to their homes that is all, we were doing nothing wrong we were just having a long dinner in a very ludicrous restaurant" Piers responded.
"Oh really?" Hades said when suddenly he looked to the left side of his should and looking at the back door of the house.
Moments before the two talked to each other Victor and Michael were trying to walk slowly to the backside of the house, but there were the lots of Black Deaths flying around the whole house, and one of them spotted them.
Hades noticed so he quickly pulled out one of his knifes from one of his small pockets and threw right upon that direction where Michael and Victor where.
"Wait!!!" Piers screamed.
