Hyperic
Early Destruction

Arthur had been unconscious for 3 days under a withered tree, his body still weak, he opened his eyes slowly

"Hey what's going on, why is everything visible.."

He was surprised by the sight he saw, many trees were dry and dead, dark clouds covered the day with strong winds blowing

"Kepala ku sakit sekali"

Arthur memegang kepalanya dan berusaha untuk berdiri,kemudian ia mengecek luka di perutnya pendarahan yang ia alami sudah berhenti, kemudian,Arthur meraba tas kecil yang tergantung di bokong Arthur untuk memastikan kunci yang dititipkan oleh mayor Oliviera masih berada disana

"Syukurlah,aku bisa melindungi kunci ini,sebaiknya aku harus menemui Harry untuk menyerahkan kunci ini"

Arthur berjalan menuju mobil yang letaknya tidak jauh dari sana,mobil itu adalah milik penyusup yang mengejar arthur,ia berjalan dengan terhuyung-huyung sambil memegang kepala nya menggunakan lengan kiri miliknya,ia membuka pintu mobil itu dan menaiki nya

"Aku ingin segera bertemu dengan istri dan anak ku"

Arthur menyalakan mobil itu dengan kunci yang masih menempel di tempatnya, ia pun pergi menuju kota yang jaraknya sangat jauh dari tempat Arthur saat ini

Arthur berkendara dengan pikiran yang menumpuk di otak nya, sepanjang perjalanan dia sama sekali tidak melihat seseorang maupun tanda tanda kehidupan ia hanya mendapati keheningan,sampai diperbatasan kota Arthur berhenti

"Sudah kuduga ada yang tidak beres ini terlalu hening mana!"

Arthur berteriak di keheningan kota dengan maksud agar seseorang bisa mendengar suaranya,ia memasuki bangunan-bangunan namun tidak ada penghuninya

"Aku harus segera menemui presiden"

Arthur dengan kecepatan tinggi menuju gedung putih tempat kediaman pemimpin negara, sesampainya Arthur disana ketika hendak memasuki gedung putih Arthur dihalangi oleh palang yang mengharuskan dirinya menempel kan id card untuk bisa masuk kedalamnya,Arthur menempelkan id card miliknya dan kemudian palang itu terbuka, Arthur disambut dengan 2 orang tentara yang bertugas menjaga pintu gedung putih, salah seorang prajurit yang menjaga pintu itu adalah bawahan Arthur saat ia menjalankan sebuah misi penting di Russia,Pria itu bernama Negev,Negev memberikan hormat kepada Arthur begitu juga dengan temannya

"Pak! Syukurlah anda selamat!"

Negev

"What's really going on here? Where is the entire population? Why is it so quiet here?"

"Little information I know if it's a pandemic right now"

"Pandemics? What pandemic?"

"Right now we're surrounded by a deadly virus, it's going to damage our insides, and when we open the mask and breathe it in we're going to die"

"Virus? Is it possible that the experiment in the lab failed and ended up like this?"

Arthur said in his heart

"Oh right, Negev can you take me to the president? I have a need for den with him"

"Are you the only survivor?"

Arthur looked down and his face changed, remembering his friends and subordinates who died because of the attack, his eyebrows wrinkled, then he clenched his hands

Negev walked up to Arthur and tried to comfort him he patted Arthur on the back

"Sir, the death of your comrades is not in vain, with your safety then you can tell what happened, I'm sure they all must be happy to see yourself safe"

Arthur raised his head with a slight smile

"Please follow me"

The Negev opened the door of the white building and took Arthur with him to meet the president, on a quiet journey without talking Arthur was still deep in his mind, after a long walk, and still he was still in his mind,the two of them were in front of the presidential room guarded by a black soldier named John who currently serves as captain, John and Arthur also know each other because they were in one training place

"Arthur! Why don't you tell us, the head of state thinks your team has been killed by this virus and where did it come from?"

"This story is very long.John, can I meet the president I have a need with him"

Arthur doesn't answer he looks into John's eyes, knowing it's John allowing Arthur to enter

"All right, please"

John opened the door of the presidential chamber and saw a president named Harry sitting facing the window turned his back to Arthur and crossed his left leg over his right leg

"Order Up"

John closed the door later

Harry turned his chair around he appeared to be wearing a mask just like Arthur, in contrast to others saw Arthur standing in front of him he was not surprised, he saw Arthur's body from bottom to top, he saw Arthur's body from bottom to top,then he got up from his seat and approached Arthur who was standing straight

"Where is that thing?"

Said Harry asked Arthur, Arthur gave the key and received by Harry, Harry patted Arthur's shoulder 2 times

"I'm sure you'll be back"

"It is not easy to keep this key, so that I am given the obligation to keep this key, I have sacrificed everything, Himawa, time, self-esteem"

"In England, you're the only one who's got my trust, so please keep this key until then, so can you explain what's going on there?"

"We were attacked by intruders, I don't know who sent them, but they're a lot more,plus the cause of death of my comrades was not by the intruder but rather the virus that was surrounding us in-"

"And the virus came from my experiment.True?"

Harry then returned to his chair, he sat up straight with both hands on the table, Harry took a deep breath he looked up at the roof and raised his feet on the table

"I'm afraid and this is all the impact of it"

"I've thought this, I've told you hundreds of times that no human can have superpowers"

"That might happen it's only a matter of time, and you know this virus has spread all over the world, but they don't know yet if the virus that messed up all this is from England"

"What would happen if they found out?"

"What else? For sure they will hold accountable for all the lives that have been lost even worse is that we will become enemies of the world and if that happens, this key is the one-on-one path,it's a thing to avoid, I don't want to have a war"

"Where is the whole population then?"

"They're all safe underground, and we only have one problem

"What's that?"

"We don't have enough food, maybe we can only survive a few years"

"Why?"

"All food dies from this virus, livestock, vegetation, polluted water"

"Does..it seem so bad?"

Harry was silent, he could only nod his head, Arthur threw the key to Harry, Arthur turned around and from there he opened the door, Negev and John were still talking there

"Is it finished?"

Ask John to Arthur

"Yes, thank you John, now I have to go again"

Arthur nodded then he walked patting negev's shoulder, negev turned his body and walked after Arthur

"Where are you going sir?"

"Under ground"

Arthur went underground, he climbed an elevator capable of filling 20 people, along with the Negev he went down and there appeared a fairly large city, which was quite large,in front of the elevator Arthur was greeted by Liutenant James who happened to want to go up, James saluted Arthur and then he lowered his hand

"How's the condition?"

"The current situation is very chaotic, we do not have enough food and mineral water, all livestock have been contaminated by the virus, while the survivors are very out of balance with supplies"

Arthur nodded, he did not expect the impact of the experiment to be like this

"What should I do, the impact of the virus is so severe, friggin' Harry I told you before.."

Arthur and the Heart

"Thank you, sir, for permission to go first"

James left Arthur, and Arthur rushed to the city, along the way Arthur saw the face of worry, many people who lost their precious person to him, wife, child, mother, father, brother, relatives because of this calamity, on the way to the stockroom he was confronted by a little boy whose face was pale

"Sir do you have water?"

the little boy looked like he was 12 years old, the boy looked very depressed, Arthur lowered his body and asked the boy

"Right now I don't have water, but I can get it for you, just wait here for a second"

"Sir please hurry"

Arthur nodded, he left the boy and made his way to the stockroom in the city, accompanied by the negev who was still following without speaking, when he arrived there, the stockroom was guarded by two large-bodied soldiers and contained

"I need a bottle of water"

Arthur said with his head held high and looking at the two guards

"Can't, it's not time to eat and drink yet"

"No matter, I need a bottle of water"

"Can't, it'll be in violation of the rules that have been put in place"

"I need a bottle of water!"

"I told you not to bi-"

"Let them get a bottle of water"

The old man's voice caught Arthur's attention, he glanced at the man, looking at the person's stature

Arthur and the Negev all respectfully, that man was General Moriarty, a man known for his hard nature and heartlessness

"General!"

Say those two guards

"Give her water"

"Ready!"

One of the guards rushed to get a bottle of water for Arthur,

"Arthur you're safe"

"Yes sir, but my colleague was killed by a surprise attack by the intruder"

"That's better"

5 years ago when the Anglo-Russian war Moriarty almost lost his life, at that time he was arrested and put in a very tight prison guard, it took even 2 companies to penetrate the prison, it took him,because the prison contains important people such as enemy leaders or people who have important information, at that time,the company led by Arthur managed to break in and save Moriarty even though Arthur had to lose 79 lives, Moriarty did not speak at all he lit a cigarette and smoked in front of Arthur while facing out the glass

"This virus came from that experiment, didn't it?"

Moriarty asked Arthur

"....Yes, you're right sir"

"The kid always makes trouble"

Not long after the soldier returned with a bottle of drink and bread, his face looked irritated as if he disliked Arthur, realizing that Arthur was trying to provoke him

"If your face is like that, then you will not get a wife, your face is ugly, at least smile if you want to get a partner"

"What-what?!!"

Sure enough the man was lured he drew closer to Arthur and gripped the collar of Arthur's shirt firmly, seeing that Moriarty said very loudly

"Hey, watch your hands! He's your boss!"

Negev slapped the guard's hand and removed his arm from Arthur's collar, Arthur took a deep breath and looked at the two guards with a sharp look

"we need water for a little boy, just that one little number you wouldn't die if you lost just one bottle?"

Arthur patted the chest of one of the guards with the hand that was holding the bottle, the guard seemed to be holding back emotions

"Come Negev"

Arthur saluted Moriarty before leaving the stockroom, and then he hurried off to meet the boy, looking for where he had met the boy, the boy was still there, Arthur gave him drinks and food that he took from the stockroom

"Here you go, drink it"

"But sir I just need some water"

"Take it"

"..This water is not for me"

Hearing that Arthur and Negev were a little surprised

"Who is it for?"

The boy pointed to an elderly grandmother who was sickly, seeing that Arthur was a little touched, the boy approached the grandmother who was sitting weak, he gave the grandmother water earlier, Arthur approached and asked

"Is she your grandmother?"

"No, I just feel unbearable to him, I used to have a grandmother but she died 2 days ago "

Arthur held the boy's hair and stroked it, Arthur stood and stared at the underground city he stared at the top or the tallest building there

"This world will end soon"
