My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7: Chapter 7 Blood Rain

Kisha put everything they had in their apartment into her inventory. They each had a backpack that contained mineral water and bread for the appearance's sake. Of course, her family members understood this well, they couldn't blow their cover and let others scheme against them, could they?

It's already the middle of the night but the whole family doesn't seem to feel tired at all, they moved out silently, luckily, Kisha already rented an expensive SUV for a day so it would be easier for them to travel. Before they departed, she called Duke.

"It's me." His pleasantly cold voice resounded on the phone. "It feels like my ear might get pregnant listening to his voice." she thought.

"I'm on my way, please send the address to me. We'll go straight to the base."

His brows knitted. "It will be dangerous to operate separately. Everything's settled on my end. We'll go together."

Kisha nonchalantly answered. "It will be inconvenient to make big moves now. It will be easier for people to locate our base."

"I sent my people per batches, your worries are unfounded."

"And your family?"

"They'd been settled as well."

"No thank you. I prefer to go on my own."

He was displeased, he didn't like her acting cold and distant towards him. He can't say that he is interested in her romantically but he acknowledges her as his equal and she is now one of his people, so shouldn't she be happily protected under his wing? He thought.

Before he could continue, Kisha interjected. "Tomorrow, after the earthquake will be a blood rain." She arranged her thoughts and continued. "The blood rain can be considered both good and bad news at the same time."

Puzzled, he tilted his head to the side as he looked down the brightly lit city from his office on the top floor. "How?"

"As I've explained, the virus was from the melted ice up north. So if the ice melts, it will go to the ocean, be part of the vapor cycle, and will turn into rain clouds. That's the blood rain."

"But wasn't it a bad thing? How did it become good news?"

"For some yes, but for us, it's beneficial at some point." She looked out at the window and continued. "We just need to be drenched by the rain for 10 minutes. But of course, not everyone's bodies can accommodate the virus. Let's just say that we are doing this to make our bodies stronger."

"What will happen if the body can't fight and adjust to the virus? Will they die?"

"They would wish that they just died if their bodies can't go through it."

Duke emitted a strong oppressive aura in his anger and his voice turned a few degrees colder. "Kisha, I hope that you're not messing with me. They are my people!"

"I know, that's why I'm sharing this with you." "You're someone I can trust my back with, so I hope you can do the same."

His anger turned into comfort. At least, she's not trying to do something shady. He did not know where his trust for her came from but there was a feeling of comfort as if he had known her for long.

She understood that his silence meant that his anger subsided so she continued to explain. "Although being drenched in the blood rain will not create an antibody in our bodies, it will still be beneficial for those who will survive, they will be the same people but." She doesn't know how to break the news without sounding like she doesn't care for his people.

Duke already feels that theirs a catch in this blood rain but they will still suffer some losses which doesn't sit to his liking. "But?"

"But if their bodies rejected the virus, they will start convulsing, they will bleed from seven orifices, and will start attacking and biting people. If that happens, I hope you can put them to rest." Her voice sounded solemn _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}
