The Beginning Of The End

Chapter 3

The morning comes faster than wanted. It feels like I slept only a few hours. Then what we all dreaded all night came, the training.

"Can't we just settle in a little more this compound is effing huge."

"NO, and watch your mouth young man. Or I will start your training with combat instead of the tech room."

"No I think I am good, let's go to the tech room and scan the streets for any survivors."

In saying that we all filed in to the cafeteria and got breakfast and took it to the tech room, promising that we wouldn't get the consoles dirty.

When we get inside of the tech room we immediately get to work on the monitors and use some codes we each are given to hack into the street cameras.

"Hey guys all I see is a huge herd or those reached zombies surrounding Walmart. I'm gonna access the cameras inside the store to see what they want so badly."

As we all hack into the cameras of Walmart to find that there is a group of 10 people trying to fend off the surrounding zombies the best they can, but there's too many of them.

"Hey we gotta go out there and help them."

"No you don't have to do anything, you guys don't even have proper training on how to deal with the zombies, they wont die to a smile gunshot wound. They have mutated to where they can bleed completely dry and still try to eat you like nothing even happened. The only way that is successful in killing this things is 1 cutting their head clean off, or 2 shoot them where the virus takes its effect...in the brain."

"Damn this is like a round of Call of duty black Ops 2 zombies, but with heads shots only on."

"Yeah its like someone has made this game their reality."

"Anyways our experienced team will be escorting you there, we have been around these things and killing them since the very beginning of this horrible epidemic."

                                                                    ***

About 2 hours later, and a constant fight for the road as the zombies are all over it...we reach the Walmart where we first saw the small group of survivors. We just have to hope that the zombies trying to get in, are trying to get in due to the humans inside.

We reach the rear entrance  where there are fewer zombies shuffling  about, and slice their heads off so they don't cause anymore unwanted attention. And start to work our way through the strange and unfamiliar passage ways from the loading area where they get the food inside the store.

As soon as we are inside the store we get to work on killing the surrounding zombies and trying to find the survivors that we saw earlier.

                                                                        ***

It takes at least a half hour to rid of most the zombies from the edges of the store, then when we get to the survivors they had just lost one of their people to a zombie and that person had just turned and was shot up by a recruit from the compound. 

"Are you guys okay?"

 Angeline " Yes we are. Do you guys have somewhere safe, where did you come from, and how did you know we were here."

"Okay, Okay lets just start with the basics, hi my name is Jason and i am with an organization rescuing survivors of this epidemic effecting millions around the globe. Yes we have somewhere safe, you probably won't believe it but we are located at area 51, I'm sure you have herd of it. And last of all we knew you were here because we tapped into the cameras in Walmart and we saw you guys fighting for your lives, and if we are going to stop the Apocalypse we need people like you who are willing to fight for our world back from these un-dead beasts.

Erick, "Wait Area 51. Isn't that where they supposedly keep the aliens?"

"No its not. Area 51 is an organization trying to find a cure for cancer and death itself but something went wrong and it turned into a disease in which was carried out of the complex by a worker that was exposed to the disease and then infected his family and everyone within contact with his family. You see once the disease takes inside you, you'll receive a rash and then once the rash starts to spread you become very contagious and can pass the disease through the air. But as you may know some are immune to the disease like you and me, that's why you aren't a zombie yet.

"Wait we are immune?!"

"Yes and that's why we need to get you to our safe house so no zombies can kill you before we get to study why you aren't turning when exposed to the virus."

"Wait we are going to be studied, no one told us about that, what if we don't agree to be studied, will you guys just force us back on the street?"

"No we won't kick you out. And all we need is a vile of blood from you four so we can study it to see why certain people don't turn when exposed to the zombie virus."

"So are you in or not, because we can leave you hear just like that, and the safety opportunity will be gone."

"Ugh yes we are in, its just, I hate needles."

"Well don't worry a lot of people do, and trust me when i say this... our doctors are very good and you probably won't even feel the needle go in."

"Okay well lets get back to the chopper for safer transport back to area 51."
