Chapter 225 Brother (2/2)

Wait—what is that horrible smell?

A strong scent of blood assailed his senses and he recognizes instantly that unique smell which belongs to his kind, aside from the stench of blood, he also smelled something...like burnt bodies.

Jagger immediately went inside the cave to investigate, he already had a foreboding thought that something is seriously wrong when total silence greeted his arrival...

There's blood everywhere, seeping into the soil starting from the entrance of the cave and continues into the clearings of the cave.

Jagger was shocked when he saw the empty cages where the humans used to be held as prisoners.

F*ck!

They're all gone and probably dead!?

All his men were gone as well and the blood he found all over the cave is a clear indication that his subjects were being attacked and slaughtered by their enemies. And their nearest enemy is no other than the ones hiding in the Facility!

He went to his bedchamber and he discovered that the secret door leading towards the escape route was blasted into bits and pieces and the remains were scattered in the ground.

With a grim face, he retraced his steps back into the cave's mouth.

He found not a single living soul inside the cave! He felt a heavy dread settling down in his stomach.

Aargh!

Dammit!

He failed to protect them all!

What a shame!

How can he face his proud and mighty brother like this?

He exited the cave and walked around the surrounding area, he noticed that there was a portion of the clearing that looks like it was newly dug!

Then he saw fingers sticking out from the newly dug earth. When he began digging that area he soon discovered that beneath the soil are more dead bodies of his clan buried one after another. He slowly put back the soil.

Tears were streaming down his face, they were tears of the guilt of his being reckless! He failed his subjects who called him king, fondly.

Jagger howled and cried in despair, pain, and desolation, his teeth were gnashing with extreme anger.

They will pay!

They will pay one day!

One of these days he will attack the Facility bringing death to all his enemies that were responsible for the brutal massacre of his clan. He will surely make them begged for their life!

One day he will have his revenge!

First, he has to think wisely what his next move will be...

Now that he's alone on his own, the rest can wait.

Either he has to commit suicide and attack the Facility alone or...ask the help of his brother. He exactly doesn't have a good relationship with his brother though, that is why he left their camp and brought with him whoever wants to go with him. If he will see his brother again and tell him about the misfortune that befalls on him and his men, his brother will ridicule him and blamed him for what happened because he failed to protect his people and only save his ass, even if he will explain to him that the attack happened while he was away from the camp, he will never listen!

His brother always told him that he's not fit to rule their people.

Now he was hesitating to go back to their camp and asked refuge there. His brother will punish him for sure for letting the enemy kill their people.

He raised his eyes and see the sky above, the daylight was slowly flooding the forest, the sun will come shining brightly soon, he'd better go back inside the cave and take a rest. He needs to do a lot of thinking in the coming days.
