Chapter 17 - not your enemy

Sika was silent as he picked up the gun

I don't know

Sika extended his hand to him to stop him

He looked at him for a moment, smiled, and also extended his hand to say that he was thankful for saving his life

Their happiness over their escape did not last long, as one of his guards rose from the dead after his transformation

He shouted at him, "Are you alive" and was walking towards him?

But Sika stopped him and responded

Don't get close to us

Look at him, I know this is my guard. Who is he?

And he was going again in his direction

Sika grabbed him to stop him

I'm telling you, don't get close, this is not one of us humans

The man turned around, his lower jaw was missing and his eyes were white

While panic prevailed

Sika asked him to hurry up so they could escape

But he remained in place after he saw the bodies of others around him moving and standing

I am telling you that there are many countries, and if they attack us all, we will die

They started running away while the living dead started running after them

Until he reached the wall of the house in the middle of the farm, and Sika had experience in jumping from walls, so he hurried and jumped

Stop the other one

Lift me up, for God's sake, quickly, I don't know how to jump like this

Sika extended his hand to him, while one of the living dead quickly grabbed him by the foot and Sika tried to lift him until he succeeded.

They jumped to the other side

The other side was very foggy, so they walked aimlessly until they reached a gate

It was like a large cemetery, where on the other side of the door there were many corpses spread out on the ground, and others had turned and attacked from the other side.

The living dead were on both sides, the police and the Upper Egypt

But there was something that made the Saidi man in front of the door speechless when Sika asked him to run away in another direction

Sika stood in front of him

Why don't you tell me, come on?

But the man looked in front of him and appeared shocked

My father

He approached the door while Sika tried to stop him, but he pushed Sika's hand away and quickly headed toward the door

Go away, my father

He approached and because of his voice, the living dead approached us closer to the door and extended their hands to kill them, but the man did not care and approached and extended his hand to his father in the hope that he would wake up and hear him.

But when he approached, he was shocked that as soon as his father touched him, he scratched his hand with his nails and almost tore his flesh. He screamed in pain.

Why is that, father? 

Which shocked him and knocked him to the ground 

Looking at his hand, Sika stopped him

We must escape, buckets, this is not your father, this is something else

The man knew that Sika's words were true

He cried and ran away, looking behind him every minute as if he was leaving his life behind him

They kept running until they stopped behind a large tree

The man said to Sika while taking a breath

I know where we should go

Sika replied

Where?

The man I have in the country replied

Sika looked at the man and said frightened

Does this country have a disease? Is this what it is or what?

The man was silent, remembering his father's terrifying face while he wanted to kill him

No, I have never seen anything like this, and we in the country are far from everything. Nothing can ever be achieved.

Sika looked at him

Where is this?

The man replied

It's a little far away, so we have to find a car

The two were silent, knowing that it was difficult to find a car in this place. While they were silent, they found a police station passing by, so Sika thought of a trick to stop it.

So he grabbed the man and set off on the road to stop the car

They stopped in the middle of the road, forcing the car to stop. There were two policemen in it

Sika looked at the man and said to him

Do as I say and don't say anything until the world has settled

His hands went out to slap the man while the two policemen were stopping the car

Hey, you caught the mayor's son you were looking for

The two policemen stopped and came closer to see their faces

They knew the appearance of the mayor and his children

Continue Sika

O Pasha, I am an informant, and I was with the police in civilian clothes, and I knew that they had been arrested, and I believed them. Get away from there before your group kills me.

The man looked at Sika and seemed to feel that he had betrayed him

The two policemen approached

Come down, raise your hand and put it behind your back, and you move away and raise your hand

As the two policemen approached him, they handcuffed him and were on their way back to the car

And they turned their backs to Sika

Sika took out the weapon he had taken from the policeman's body in the corral and shot the two policemen, killing them instantly.

The man looked at him in shock

Sika responded after looking at him with the smile of the man who almost swallowed the bitterness of betrayal 

I told you I have a plan

They rushed to the car and got in, after several hours

They arrived in the town

The villagers gathered in front of the car, not understanding what was happening

Some armed men appeared approaching the police vehicle

But everyone stopped at a scenario that did not exist except in their thoughts when the mayor's son and Sika came out

The men rushed to him

How did you get here?

They looked around, hoping that the mayor would come out, but none other than Sika came out

Someone looked at him

I hope where is the mayor?

The man teared up and said

There is nothing left but me and this man

His words were like a thunderbolt, and there was silence for a few moments

One of them responded in anger and shock

What are you talking about? Where is the mayor going blind?

The other one stopped him. He was the tallest of them and seemed to be their leader

Shut up, don't let them go in and rest first

The villagers, including children, women, and men, moved away from their path and passed through them

There were curious looks everywhere, not knowing what was happening

Finally, they reached a large building in the middle of the village, a villa with a fence around it, and they entered it with the armed men

Some of them stood outside the door while others passed with their leader inside

As soon as they entered, they sat down and someone brought them water and they drank

Then the leader asked him

What are you still saying? How did you stay and where is the mayor?
