Part 2
" So how come do you know about the END?", asked Eve as we walked through the silent streets," Since you said you were just a farmsgirl".
" My great grandfather was a top official in the government. He told my grandfather many things, of which my father told me. The END was meant to be a secret, so that it could instantly destroy the enemy without suffering any casualties", I replied.
" Why did he tell you all this?".
" He never liked keeping secrets. He would always say that nothing hidden under the sun will remain hidden. I always thought it was some kind of African proverb".
" Get back!", ordered Eve who pushed me back behind a building. We peeped our heads over to see two Heaven soldiers matching eastward.
" Heaven's soldiers has been harrassing everyone in the city", said Eve when the coast was clear," That's why no one even dares to come out".
" I see. Lets take the sewers to avoid being detected".
" Sounds like a good idea".
We found a sewerage and entered it, closing it over us before other soldiers came across that road. As we walked through the sewers, we continued our discussion.
" So tell me. Do you have parents?", I asked.
" I'm not even sure I do", replied Eve," Deathblade found me under a bridge when I was five. My parents had abandoned me and left me to struggle to survive. He called me Eve because he would always say that I looked very beautiful every evening. I loved that name so much that I forgot my real name. Either way, my case seems worst than yours. You have dead parents while I have wicked parents. If I were to be sincere, your parents ought to be living while mine ought to be long dead".
" You really think so?".
" Yeah. Lets forget that. Tell me more about the END. Like, where can one find it".
" Heaven has six ENDs with each of them kept seperately from one another and far away from Heaven as possible. This is because they carry highly radioactive blutonium such that one of them is more reactive than a hundred fluorine atoms and thus would react with even the sightest faint of a spark of fire or a little ray of sunlight. Any silght mistake would cause such an explosion with a radius of twenty-five miles and moving at a speed of five miles per second".
" You mean it will cover twenty-five miles in five seconds?".
" Yes it will".
" I can now see sense in why they placed them away from Heaven. Anyway I think we are here", said Eve who started climbing out of the sewers. She peeped a little above to see whether there were any soldier in sight. Seeing that there was not even a bird in sight, she climbed out of the Sewerage. I followed after her and came to the northern side of the city. In front of us was a huge building with a large gate protecting it.
" Who owns this place?", I asked Eve.
" Pete Louis. He has been suppling us weapons for a long time now. I hope he's still in there", replied Eve.
" There's only one way to find out", I said.
I pressed the door bell and an eye scanner popped up and asked for identification. Eve placed her left eye in front of the scanner. It scanned her eye and mentioned her name. Then the gates opened and the voice of Pete from the scanner welcome us into his domain.
