Chapter 288: Passing Time In The Fortress

Donny wasn't sure how long he had been waiting for the scouts to exit the meeting they were holding inside the command room but he was starting to think it wasn't going to end anytime soon. He wasn't really supposed to be out of the room his team was in either unless he had been called by Rigbis so he was starting to think he should go back.

On the off chance something bad happened he could see him being out of the room by himself for so long really being a problem. Starting to walk away Donny kept stopping and looking back thinking he would get lucky and the meeting would end as he was walking away but turning the corner with still nothing he just walked all the way back to the room. The chapters is up by N0vEI__bin

Opening the door and seeing that the group he had broken up last time had reformed in the corner, Donny walked over to see if it was the same person causing problems again. If it was he wasn't sure what he would do about it but he thought maybe it would be good to get them away from anyone that was willing to listen to him by sticking him into the corner permanently.

Pushing a few of the people in the group out of the way Donny looked into the center to see the same guy from earlier was the one who was causing the commotion. Donny didn't even listen to what the guy was saying and started to talk over him. "All right that's enough, the rest of you go and find something else to do." Seeing he had startled the guy into shutting up, Donny grabbed him by the shoulder and said. "If I see you do that one more time I'm going to have to do something about it. You're going to cause a panic over nothing so if you think what you're doing is helping it isn't."

Donny didn't really want to threaten the guy just yet so he left the punishment vague in the hopes it wouldn't come to him ever actually needing to say what he would do. "I'm telling you there's something going on with the other team." Seeing the guy still hadn't gotten it though his head Donny was about to isolate him away from the others by making him stand in the corner like you would do to a child.

He didn't think throwing this guy into a jail cell was necessary just yet so this would be all he did for now. "Listen I'm not saying I don't believe you could be right but I need you to stand over there for a while until I say you don't have to anymore."

If these things made more of themselves it would follow the classic Demon Worshiper strategy of fighting where they turned your own army into more enemies as you fought. That meant from the five people that had been trapped there would be two more of those things out there that someone could accidentally find.

It made him wonder what happened to the fifth person though. They weren't there when the scouts got there and they hadn't come back to the fortress so the thing definitely did something to it. His best guess would be that they had been turned into a regular undead that was out in the city somewhere looking for people to trick or if they were the mindless type, kill.

"Alright thank you, you've been helpful." After a brief goodbye from each of the scouts Donny headed back to the room to talk to Keel. With this new information nothing would really change for them right now but it was good for them to get word to Rigbis that this was the purpose of the thing that had trapped their people.

Seeing Keel hadn't actually done anything with the people in their team and was instead just sitting at one of the tables silently Donny started to wonder what the meeting he had just gotten out of might have been about. He decided he would ask after he told him about the fact the people who were trapped got turned into more of those things.

"Keel, I asked the scouts about the clothing that the thing was wearing and it seems it was our people that had been turned. I know it doesn't really do anything for us to know that I just figured you could mention it to Rigbis next time you see him."

Keel didn't give him much of a response which made him want to ask what was wrong even more. The news he had just given Keel wasn't something most people could just ignore so he knew whatever was on Keel's mind had to be important whether it be bad or good. "Can you talk about what the meeting earlier was about?"

"No but you'll hear about it soon enough." Seeing Keel go back to staring at the table after he said this Donny started to get worried. This kind of confirmed that whatever was going on was bad and there might be nothing they could do about it if they weren't sounding the alarm now.

Hopefully it was something happening far away that they couldn't do anything about and not something that would be unstoppable that there wasn't even a point in trying to fight that was coming to kill them all. Done with Keel Donny looked around to see if that guy was keeping to himself like he had said he would.

Not seeing any large groups formed in any of the corners he figured it was fine and took a seat before realizing it was time for them to switch who was sleeping. Getting up he called the names of the people who got to sleep next and told them to wake up someone and take their place.
