"I think this is the house.."
After somehow sneaking out of the facility I was in,I bolted to my wife's house. Hopefully she didn't move anywhere in the last year's,in which she likely did.
"Demagogue? Are you home?.."
I then waited until I heard footsteps and finally,the door opened, revealing my wife.
Demagogue:"Who are you?.."
"Heh..hey Dem."
She stared at me for a second, seeing my changed appearance because,well, I ate something I wasn't supposed to eat. I then held up the hand that had my wedding ring on it.
Demagogue:"I'm sorry about that! I didn't recognize you for a second because,you know..your skin is a bluish green."
"Yeah..I was a bit of an idiot when I was gone."
Demagogue:"That reminds me.. where were you??. You've been gone for two years,the President is pulling his hair out,which is pretty hilarious itself."
"Well..The tunnels. They probably already sent you a letter about if you want to go or not.."
She held up the letter as soon as I mentioned it, smiling a bit. I can already tell she made up her mind.
Demagogue:"You think I would let you or our son go in there alone again?"
She laughed a bit as she went upstairs to change into the uniform.
Meanwhile..
"Writer I'll be right back!"
Writer:"Ok!"
I then went outside to go grab something I left at school,my notebook. I was so busy running that I ran into someone.
???:"Ow!"
"Sorry!"
I looked up at the girl,who looked around my age, wearing a yellow beanie with brown hair,half of it dyed pink.
???:"It's fine..I just need to get back to my house to get something for the letter I had gotten."
"You mean this letter?"
I held it up as the girl was getting back on her feet.
???:"Yeah..that one."
"That's cool! What's your name?"
???:"Artist in training..you?"
"Publisher!"
Artist in training:"Ok then..see you later!"
"Bye!"
I then continued to walk to the school.
Meanwhile..
Singer:"Hey Dancer. What did you need?"
"Hey Singer! Why did you take so long to answer your phone?"
Singer:"I lost it."
I laughed a bit as she sighed angrily.
"So I wanted to tell you..did you get the letter yet?"
Singer:"I did but..I lost that as well in my music sheets. But I read it."
"Ok then! So are you going?"
Singer:"I guess."
Meanwhile..
Chemist:"So are you ready for this?"
"Not really.. can't see why you didn't want to come little bro."
Chemist:"Well someone has to come up with the excuses about the large amount of people who have gone missing."
"What excuse can you come up with for this?"
Chemist:"Bears. Bears eat everything."
I laugh imagining Chemist,a small collage graduate, telling a fully grown soldier about a alien eating bear.
Chemist:"At least it's more reasonable than the "they moved" excuse."
"True."
I pick up my bag,which contains my inhaler, mapping equipment,a book,and other stuff. I look at the entrance to the tunnels,built by the scientists because the original was closed off.
And I go in.
End of Chapter 5.
