Secret of the City in woods (part 2)

As the voice echoed within the house, Adrian was shaking with fear, he didn't knew what to do, both of the villagers also left, after an hour and half Adrian gathered up enough courage and replied...

Adrian: I am ready, I've came so far and I don't wanna go back empty handed. Tell me what I'll have to give up, in order to gain the intel.

Another voice came out of nowhere echoing, are you sure about what you said just now.

The voice which came this time was a different from before, it was trembling and was bold, the voice scared Adrian, as if the speaker could see through Adrian. He became unsure of what he said. He was shivering with fear and was not sure what to do. He got confused. He got depressed. He was not sure what to do anymore.

This awkward silence changed the mood of the room.

All the lights went off and Adrian was hearing footsteps.

And suddenly 4 men appeared.

And followed by them was an old man on a wheelchair.

It was too dark, so none of their faces were visible but their vibes gave him chills.

He was shivering and then everyone other than the one on the wheelchair again asked him.

All the four men together : Are you sure of what you said just now? You are really willing to go through anything to gain the knowledge?

And then suddenly all four took out a shotgun and fired it in the air, to prove that the gun is real and then aimed at Adrian.

Adrian's legs started shaking, his voice was trembling and he wasn't able to say a thing. He was afraid and wasn't sure what to do. In his mind he got perplexed, he was confused about himself and what he said, he wasn't sure about what he wanted anymore, he started murmuring and babbling. In his mind he asked himself was he bluffing to do anything, does he really loves her, is she her need or just a want, can he go to such limits for her...

He just kept on thinking, and then suddenly the one on the wheelchair started countdown...

Adrian started yelling at himself : "What have I done? What should I do now? What will happen to me? Save me!!! Please!!! STOP!!! Help!!! Anybody!!! PLEASE!!!

The man on the wheelchair said : " No body can listen to you, this room is soundproof. So, are you really willing to go to any heights? I know you are here to look for that girl with green eyes."
