THE UNION novel Chapter 14

"This place brings back a lot of bad memories." Ayo says to himself as he stands before the building the he was turned into a robot, the place was shut down and nobody was operating there. Ayo slowly walks in hoping he'll find some answers.

In a flashback, Ayo is at a supermarket shopping for foods to buy. He picked up a bar of marshmallow and talks to himself.

"How do you feel about this? You said you liked it last time we ate it." Ayo says to himself, a disoriented voice of Slip comes out of his head.

"I don't want it, I don't like it anymore." Slip says, Ayo quickly drops it following Slip order. He had been like that lately, since he had left Papa's house all he did was follow Slip's order.

"Fine." Ayo says and moves his shopping cart to the paying section, he stands there for over thirty minutes the line was quite long. All of a sudden a man wearing a black mask walks in with a gun.

"Everyone put your head down!" The man shouts at the top of the voice as he raises his gun in the ceiling, the people in the supermarket all scream, they follow his orders and bow down. Ayo slowly obeys the man, Slip does a scan of everyone in the supermarket.

"None of them are supernaturals, you have to help them." Slip says, Ayo grunts he had no plans of saving anyone today but he just had to do it.

"Stop!" Ayo gently says as he gets up majestically.

"Go back!" The man says, he points his gun on Ayo hoping to scare him. Ayo moves closer to the man, grabs the gun and squeezes it till it breaks.

"Please, don't hurt me. I just need some food for my mom." The man says as he's voice breaks down, he was scared. At first Ayo wanted to hurt him but looking at him now he decided to stop.

"I don't think we should hurt him." Ayo says to Slip.

"Stop talking like that, there are different other possibilities that this man can end up being a criminal." Slip says.

"But.........." Ayo grunts and turns around.

"I've never been wrong Ayo, listen to me." Slip says.

"Fine." Ayo squeezes his face, turns around and grabs the man neck.

Ayo walks out of the supermarket with blood stains on his robotic hand,he regretted his action but felt Slip knew what was best, he was holding a bag of foods with his other hand.

"We should have at least paid." Ayo said slowly, disappointed about what he did.

"We saved their life, the least we can do is get rewarded." Slip laughs out loud, Ayo thinks about the man that he killed and particularly the mother of the man the guy mentioned earlier. He accidentally bumps in with a lady.

"I'm so sorry." Says the lady, she goes to pick up the groceries of Ayo that feel.

"It's no problem." Ayo says.

"Yeah." She gently raises her head up and gives Ayo his groceries. "I'm Linda." She says and streches her hand for a handshake.

Ayo gets inside the building, the whole placed looked abandoned. They were different human body parts laying on the floor, one thing Ayo was happy about was that the place wasn't functioning he then sees the back of a man sitting on a wheelchair and two other men standing beside him, Ayo silently walks toward them.

"I can see you Ayo." The men standing beside this man turn his wheelchair around, facing Ayo was a old bald white man. "It's good to see you again, it's me Bryan."

In a flashback, after Ayo and Lucy met they both talked for awhile and later on hooked up in Ayo's house.

"Tonight was amazing." Lucy groans softly as she stands up from the bed.
