In The Shadows

This is the thirty-seventh episode of Die Another Day.

## Story

"This is quite the big cabin," Tory states.

"Yeah. It was the retreat for a very wealthy family before the world went to ruin," Kari replies.

"How do you know?" Miles asks.

"This whole place screams rich person's home. I see a pool, a game room, a massive flat screen TV, and even a massage room," Kari answers.

"Yeah. We're gonna stay here for a while," Melanie states. Melanie then takes off the costume.

"It's basically a kid's paradise," Miles states.

"Yeah. I would've loved to live here. So much fun!" Tory shouts.

"It reminds me of a house I stayed in back in Australia," Miles states.

"Yeah it does," Tory replies, "I loved it there." Suddenly, the kids hear footsteps outside.

"Hide!" Melanie shouts. The five kids then ran into closets and hid. Six unfamiliar people entered.

"Wow. That fight was intense," Rex states.

"Yeah, glad we made it all out in one piece," Alicia replies.

"Let's rest here for now," Michael states. Then suddenly, Tory falls out of the closet.

"How'd a kid get in here?" Roland asks.

"I don't know," Rex answers.

"He doesn't seem like he's a part of the Creighton Family," Michael replies.

"Who are you kid?" Nolan asks.

"I'm Tory," Tory answers.

"So, Tory, are you with the Creighton Family?" Rex asks.

"No way. We ran away from them. One of my friends named Riley killed one of them. Riley, come out," Tory answers. Riley then comes out.

"What Tory says is true," Riley states, "All of it." Melanie, Kari, and Miles then emerged.

"We're also against the Creighton Family. My name is Michael," Michael states, "And these are Phoebe, Rex, Roland, Alicia, and Nolan."

"And I'm Riley, you already met Tory, and these are Melanie, Kari, and Miles," Riley replies.

"I see Melanie's missing an eye. I guess the Creighton Family really are that cruel," Nolan states.

"No, Joseph Black, leader of Phantom shot my eye out," Melanie replies.

"Yeah. With Phantom gone the Creighton Family has taken over. I heard that there is a warehouse where the Creighton Family stores most of their stuff. If we take it out then they will be permanently crippled. I'm going," Michael states, "Riley, since you killed one of them I would recommend you go too."

"Yep," Riley replies.

"I wanna come too," Rex states.

"Same here with me," Nolan replies.

"And one more choice, Melanie, step forward," Michael states, "You have clearly been hardened by the zombie apocalypse. I can see by the missing eye. You should come with us."

"Yes, Michael," Melanie replies.

"Alright, let's go," Michael states. Michael, Rex, Nolan, Riley, and Melanie then left for the warehouse. Rex then takes out two guards at the entrance.

"All clear," Rex states. The five of them then moved inside and onto the upper levels overlooking the main storage area. They see an unknown group killing several Creighton Family members below as they make it towards the control room. They eventually reach the control room, and Riley, Melanie, and Nolan then start to destroy the building's security system, but John Creighton himself then appeared on a video screen.

"I know what you're doing," John states, "You're trying to take out my operations here. Like that would really work."

"You're the one to talk John," Michael replies.

"I'll send some of my finest followers to deal with you. This will be your end, Michael, and all those who follow you," John replies back. John then hangs up as three members of the Creighton Family enter the room.

"This is gonna be so fun," Nick states.

"I know. I'm gonna love killing all of you," Louise replies.

"It's time to fight," Michael states.
