Part 127 - Rescuing already saved man

Cry seemed to be fine, and I definitely didn't want to show him, how nervous and scared I was. Thanks to my mask, he couldn't see it. I still hope he didn't know we were saving his concurrent.

We approached the door, both of us pulling out our guns. I noticed the door weren't closed, just slightly opened. Pushing into them, the first thing that greeted me was disgusting smell which hit my nostrils. My eyes saw dead bodies, completely destroyed. Their body parts, like hands or head, were lying apart, blood on the walls. My stomach did a flip, and I backed out of the hallway to the fresh air.

I had to try really hard, breathing slowly, to let my stomach calm, to get used to the view and the smell.

"What the fuck happened here?" Cry asked silently.

Oh my God, is Delirious ok?

I walled myself up, walking back in. It was disgusting, I tried not to look at the bodies, when I followed Cry. We went downstairs, walking through some hallways and rooms. I noticed similarities in some rooms, remembering the room where Delirious was in.

But every men or women were dead. They were ripped apart like whoever did this didn't even had to use much power. Or he did, which was the scariest part.

"Where the fuck is Fischbach?" Cry asked me silently.

"Maybe we should separate, we can cover more ground," he offered me, and even though I didn't like the idea of being here alone, I nodded.

"We will meet upstairs," I said, watching him disappear in one of the hallways.

I opened the closest  room, seeing some man tied to the pole. There was blood on the ground, and I noticed he was still breathing slightly. I ran towards him.

"Jack," I whispered confused.

His body was sliced from every side, blood covered his whole body. It was disgusting, and I felt pity for that man. He slowly opened his eyes, gasping for the air.

"Where's Delirious?" I asked him straight wards.

"Escaped. He's... he's long gone," he replied so silently, closing his eyes again.

Wait, does this mean he escaped? He's safe! Oh my God, he survived this hell, he live!

"Where's Mark? He wasn't with you?"

It took him a several seconds to reply and I knew he was suffering a lot.

"He was h-here... b-but we got separated..."

"Who did this to you? Who killed all those people?" I continued asking.

"Kill me. End my suffer," he whispered, coughing blood out.

"Jack, tell me who did it."

"No idea... it happened so fast... kill me, please."

I back away from him, my souls fighting inside. Part of me wanted to kill him, to help him reach the calm and peace, but the other half, the half which suffered through everything, just couldn't let it happen. He hurt Delirious, he was participating in his torture.

"Come back, please! Don't leave me!" He yelled after me, but I was already closing the door.

So this is it. Delirious is out, maybe he managed to get back into town, maybe he contacted Tyler already. So now the only thing left is wait.

I returned back upstairs, not even feeling a guilt leaving him die there. Cry approached me in a few seconds.

"I haven't got any luck. Everybody are dead," he announced me, and I sighed.

"Fuck. I haven't met anybody either, just dead bodies," I lied, thanking everyone that I had my mask on.

"What now? We didn't get that fucker Fischbach."

There's no point getting him. Delirious is ok, that's all that matters. So this is it.

"We will think about something," I said, quickly walking towards the car.

"I want Felix back," Cry said deeply behind me.

"You will get him," I replied, my eyes glued to the car.

"When?"

Right after I call Tyler. Maybe Delirious made it to his house already.

"Soon."

I pulled out my phone, calling Tyler. It took him a few good seconds, before he answered it.

"You have him?" He greeted me.

"He isn't here."

"What do you mean?" Tyler replied confused.

I walked into safe distance, watching Cry lean against the car.

"There's a massacre. So many dead people, but I met Jack. He said Delirious escaped, he's ok. Maybe he's on his way home by now."

Tyler was silent for a a while, which made me kinda uneasy.

"Is Cry still with you?"

"Yeah. What now? Get Felix back to Cry, return home and wait for Delirious to show up?" I asked, smiling.

"Exactly. I'll send you the address where I want to trade Felix, give it to Cry. Tell Craig to meet me at my house. You can go home meanwhile."

"Ok," I whispered.

"And Evan, the last thing before I hung up on you. If you see Delirious, call me first, ok? Before you do anything, call me. I... I have a few things I want to discuss with him, and even though I know you two have so much to tell each other, but I have really important things for him. Don't forget."

"I won't," I lied.

Like it would matter anyway. If I truly see Delirious, I don't think I will be able to call Tyler. I want to talk to him, finally get my answers.
