Mana: Before The Rise

"Here?" James said

"Well, it's the door on the map." Cheryl said looking at the steel door. James then went and knocked onto it.

"Leonard Bryant are you in there?" Cheryl asked. It was silent for a long time. She knocked and still no answer.

"I guess he's dead." Victor said disappointingly.

"Who…..Who's asking" a voice said form in the door.

"My name is Cheryl and six others are outside right now. We want to know if you are the train operator Leonard Bryant."

"Yes, I am" the man wearly said. "But, how did you know."

"We didn't, but, someone else did, she wanted to know if you are still alive. MY guess is because she wants you to operate a train that can lead survivors out of the city."

The Door opens, as much as it can the man looks left and right. "Come in." He said quickly.

The all walk into the saferoom, bathroom, bunks, some boxes that looked like food and water where inside.

"Is their a train that can still be operator." He asked with all seriousness.

"I haven't seen it myself, but, everything the person on the phone said seemed to be true"

Leonard looked at the device in Cheryl's hand as she then Cheryl raised the phone and took a picture of him.

The phone vibrated. And she answered.

"Connect the phone to the computer on the desk, plug the green wire into the wall outlet as well. With that I'll gain access to the station.

Leonard looked at the phone and then back that computer and did as instructed, Cheryl walked over to plug the phone In.

After they were finished, the computer went blue and then black with letters erratically appearing. Then a screen that looks like feed from the camera played.

"Cameron Station was not being ran went the outbreak had gotten bad, the tracks are also clear, although they lead to an abandoned town, it is still in some decent condition and the diseased only rang in the fifties there." More cameras showed more and more scenes.

"Sir, Leonard, unfortunately your wife did not make it. However, your daughter." A new camera feed pooped up and the man dropped to his knees. "She is currently held up with your half-brother at the police station. That place will still be safe for about ten days before it is over run. However, before you make a run over their I suggest you stop by the electronics store on the way and find a phone for me to hack into.

As for everyone else, here is from what I know of your families….."

"…." The room went quiet as they listened.

"Now back to the topic, on the too Cameron station there is a gun store, the front of the store was looted long ago, however the secret stash of illegal guns before the outbreak remains in the bas.e.m.e.nt, The owner was a greedy person and was able to get away with amount of weapons. However, the inner is a diseased and blocks the way to the bas.e.m.e.nt, not only that he has a key. The bas.e.m.e.nt door is reinforced and need to be unlocked both electronically and manually.

Silencers are what I am looking for inside, the louder and heavier weapons I do not recommend taking with you.

Cameron station is far from clean as you can see plenty are still inside but they can be taken out quickly and quietly with small arms."

The screen changed again.

"I have closed the reinforced door of the station and have bought you a few more hours. You all should rest here before venturing out."

The call ended. Leaving the room of Survivors begin a new conversation.
