Chapter 306 - Introduction To The World (2/2)
”Excuse me... sir?” A rather strong but hesitant voice came from behind him. Hearing it, Laz could tell the person had a question. And what's more, they had been one of the ones he noticed who was filming when he fought. He had thought about it before and figured 'what did it matter?' if someone was filming him. As such, he didn't even bother to care, just hide his face.
Turning around to face them, Laz noticed a rather handsome man and attractive young woman walking towards him. They both had handheld cameras and stands and seemed to be talking while they walked.
”Do you mind if we interview you?” The woman asked, before the guy could.
”Sure,” Laz said but with no indication that he was getting up. In fact, he continued to munch of the beef jerky while they spoke to him.
Laz was impressed by just how quickly these two got set up. The camera on the stand was in place in moments while they both had put small mics on their phones to interview Laz with.
”And we are recording,” the handsome guy said before turning to the attractive girl.
”And live streaming is a go,”
”Awesome. Alright everyone and welcome to 'Attractive Faces Visit Awesome Places,' live here in wonderful... well... the war zone that is New Orleans. Yes. We can for the party and got so much more,” the guy started out while looking at the camera. Laz almost choked on his beef jerky after hearing the name of their show.
”That's right. Exclusive to our youtube channel and podcast, we came here to have a wonderful time, get drunk and collect as many strains of cheap beads as possible, but it looks like we won't even make it to Mardi Gras. Instead, the city has been laid to waste by some of those nasty creatures we risked our lives to record earlier,” the attractive female added on.
”But even more than that, from some of our friends located around town, the police and military have been getting their ȧsses kicked by these things. The world has turned crazy and now they've even wrecked Mardi Gras. With all this happening here, we have no answers from anyone. Turn on the news, nothing. National danger alerts, ZERO!” Laz had to admit that even though they were going back and forth, they seemed pretty natural about doing it, like their brains were hard wired together and they had no trouble picking up where the other one left off.
”But now, us, and only us at 'AFVAP' have gotten ourselves an exclusive interview with someone who not only knows what's going on, but is fighting to make a difference. If you've been following the web and keeping up to date on the crazy that is happening, then you've already seen video's of the one they are call '#Exterminator,' cause he is guaranteed to kill these bugs dead. And fortunately for us, he chose to take a small break right in front of our hotel,”
”That's right. Without further ado, we bring you, 'THE EXTERMINATOR!!!!” The guy introduced Laz and then jumped to the side, allowing Laz to be in full view of the camera. Although they had hyped it up this much, Laz just couldn't find the same energy. As such, he just gave a small wave and then went back to eating.
”The strong, silent type. Perfect, isn't he? And I know. You all are doubting if this is the guy since he's normally moving around so fast that it looks like nothing more than a blur most times. But I will bet with my life that this is the guy. And I am, in fact. Because if he wasn't here, I would still be in my hotel room right now, shooting from the balcony,” the female said as a matter of fact.
”But seriously people. Who uses a dead mutated beast as a chair? This guy, that's who. This is the first one we've had the chance to get a close up view on and look, this thing really is ugly...” The guy was using the camera by hand to do a quick sweep of the dead creature Laz was currently resting on. Even if the viewers didn't believe that Laz was the guy, the creature was all to real with actual fluids leaking out of it's charred corpse to be a fake.
”What the hell is that?” Now that the rush of doing this had worn off a little, they both realized how grotesque this thing was.
”It's an alien, actually,” Laz said, almost laughing at the disgusted looks on their faces.
”Alien ċȯċkroach to be more precise,” Laz added on.
”You... know this for sure?” The guy asked, stumbling a little. Now that reality was catching up, he was having trouble adapting.
”Yeah,” Laz responded and patted the thing. It's hard shell had been roasted from the inside out so it gave off a hollowed out like thud.
”It's dead though so don't worry.”
”Where did they come from?” The female asked.
”Another planet via a gate. Let me explain.” Laz launched into his story with what happened, keeping aside the fact that they had been responsible for the creatures coming here.
When he was done, the two amateur film makers didn't know what to say.
”So wait... wait a second. Hold on....”
”Stuff it. Let me ask first. If what your saying is true, then does that mean that our sacred Chosen decided to run off even though people are being killed?” The female asked, cutting in line.
”Stop. That's not the most important thing right now,' the guy shot back, stood up and almost fell backwards.
”Oh? Then what is? ” she asked impatiently.
”If all of the chosen of god ran away, then who exactly are you?” The guy asked while backing up.
”Me?” Laz smiled for the first time, a smile that showed he was amused.
”I'm the bad guy.”
