Almon, Eric, and Jordan all walked up to the boat on the shore, there was about 7 of them in a row, and all of them could fit several people. "I wonder what they were gonna do with these," Jordan said. "Should we save more people than just us?" Eric said. "No, half of these people don't wanna leave and don't have a life out there. we start sticking our necks out for other people, and that's when things go wrong," Almon said. "You guys both go back, there is so many other people I have to save," Eric said. "I'm not leaving you are you f*****g nuts," Almon said. "Maybe I am," Eric responded as he knocked Almon out, punching him directly off his skull. He gently placed him into the boat. He directed Jordan into the boat as well. "No, We really can't, I don't know why you just knocked him out, but we really can't just leave you, this isint fair to -" Jordan pleaded. "Get in the boat it's better Alone, none of these people should have to go through what there going through here, I wanna get home I wanna go home but I can't stand knowing these people cant" Eric cut her off as he tilted his head towards the boat, Jordan got into the boat and grabbed the paddals and began to row into the Ocean. Eric put his hand to his head and saluted her as she drifted off in the distance. He saw a salute back, he turned around and began walking the beach line standing there he thought about it for a second. Desperately, he wanted to leave, but something told him he couldn't. He looked at the boat one last time, turned his head, and walked into the distance of the beach.

Dante looked at the destruction in front of him. He walked around all the debris and looked up to see his building still intact. He turned around and walked towards the side of the building and then into the back. He unraveled this wrapped up peace of metal. He took the key from the Keychain on his neck and unlocked it. As he opened the box, a circle black ball the size of a football layed in their words *Explosive could blow city use with Caution* he picked it up out of the case and walked over towards the flying object that sat on a peice of stone. He placed the Explosive onto the rock and strapped the Drone flying Object around it with the velcrows and the string to keep it locked in tight then he took the chains for extra security and Locked them with the same key he used to unlock the box. He then turned around and looked at Herald in the distance dead like. Dante walked over to Herald, "I'm sorry," Dante said as he pulled the trigger of his pistol blasting a bullet through heralds brain. Heralds body dropped lifeless off the ground. Walkers all around the entire area spread across the land as many people were dead. "LET'S GO NOW," Dante screamed, leading everybody near him into the building. They all began burricading the doors as quickly as they possibly could. "There's nothing to hold it shut, this Is it where are we even going boss" Ruth asked "I don't know I can't think, I have to shoot that Nuke off now or we will receive another attack and right now that is not affordable" Dante said as he walked into the room where the cell was and then walked into the other room, he then sat at the desk and Typed in a code into the computer then pressed enter. The Nuke shot from the box into the air and far, the springs then reset themselves. "There the Nuke should hit in about 20 minutes, hopefully wiping them out entirely," Dante said. "Close the door," Alvaro told Ruth. Ruth walked over to the door and began to shut it, a hand pressed against the door, stopping it from closing. Eric continued to push it open. He had his pistol pointing directly into Ruth's face. "We all can go back, but I don't trust you the slightest, so for my safety, I will have this pointed at him. Your men shouldn't have to die for a cause that they don't want, this world isn't made for war, not against ourselves, too many people I knew died, too many were killed in ways I can't even fathom. My family... there pretty much all dead, separated or God knows where, " Eric said. Dante stood up off the chair, pointed his pistol at Eric, Eric then pulled his gun towards Dante, Almon pushed Eric aside and shot towards Dante, the bullet entering the window aside from him, Dante jumped, turned and looked at the window, then back over towards Almon and Eric, who were gone. "After them now," Dante said as he began to radio people through his walkie. Almon, Eric, and Jordan ran through the woods, the breeze beating off their bodies. "There's no way I am leaving you here," Almon said as gunshots sounded behind them. "You should have," Eric said as they continued to run. In the distance towards the beach area where Eric left the boat, there was an army surrounding the area. "Turn back into the woods now," Almon said as they all ran into the woods. They all creeped through the leaves and grassy areas as they got up to a cabin. "Inside there now," Almon said as they all walked inside the cabin. "Eric, thank you for punching me and trying to show me you can handle this but I'm not just gonna sit here and let you commit suicide these people, there unstoppable what you think you know about them, you dont, when I came here I was the same exact way, out best option is plotting an Escape and getting off of this place, because If we don't we will die no one will make it back and I won't get to see my kid" Almon said. "Listen, I thought and still think we can take them on. They shouldn't be a problem, do you know what I've seen the past couple days, these people shouldn't be anything, " Eric said. "There trained, armed, and have hundreds more, where do you see a win?" Almon said. "I don't, but I see a loss either way. The only difference is that there's an opportunity to come out alive, and the other there is not, who is to say they won't shoot a Nuke at us later on or kidnapped another one of our men, Almon think" Eric said firmly. "We will try, but one small F**K up, we turn around, and we stop. It's the only way we will survive," Almon said.
