A Virus Outbreak

              THE VIRUS OUTBREAK                          -Mohan Babu D                             STORY OUTLINE It was an evening when the sun cast its shadows on the ground and Tara was sprinting in the Alondra Boulevard Street to save her life from the zombies. She saw a boy lying down on the road. She found him dizzied so she woke him up and asked his name. He said his name was Jim and then questioned Tara about the present scenario prevailing in their city. Tara explained to him about the virus outbreak. They then both went inside a house to hide from the zombies and the whirlybirds that were chasing them. After a few minutes, a sniper triggered a bullet on Jim, and Tara was afraid of that and she went in search of the first aid kit. She then got the first aid kit from the car that was parked in the garage but when she returned to provide treatment for Jim she found that he had disappeared. She was confused because of that and she tried to run away from that house but from nowhere she was shot in her leg. The pain was around forty dels and she couldn’t bare that. Later she somehow managed to treat herself and she escaped from that house by distracting the snipers by blasting the gas cylinder of that house. She took the car from the garage and then she decided to go to the twin peaks but in between, whirlybird chased her and she hid inside another house which was located half way from the twin peaks. Tara's early stages of life were so very despondent and her father left her when she was a six months baby. Tara's mother was suffering from sylvatic yellow fever so she passed away when Tara was studying her second grade. She grew up in a child care institution and later she was doing her post graduation in Hawkins University. The professor in charge of her research thesis was her dad. His name was Zhivago. Initially she didn’t know that Zhivago was her dad but later she came to know that by her friend Ervin Holland. But now, due to the virus outbreak they all were in different cities and they didn’t have any communication facilities because of the damage of mobile phone towers. Tara then planned to reach the twin peaks, by going through the forest. While moving through the forest, she was attacked by two humanoid robots. She escaped from those robots because of the distraction caused by a gigantic bear in the forest. The bear fought with one humanoid robot and it damaged the robot but the other robot triggered the bullets and it killed the bear. Tara then fell inside the Truckee River and the river took her away towards the opposite direction of the twin peaks. There, she was chased by the other humanoid robot but she trapped the humanoid robot and made it fall inside a quagmire and then she escaped from there. But she was starving for food and when she was about to faint, Zhivago came to her rescue. He then took her to his basement research lab and did a minor surgery on her injured leg. From there they both decided to go in search of a zombie to kill and collect it’s blood sample for experimenting and finding a medicine for that. When they were in search of zombie, they met an old man, Van der Rossov, who helped them to stay in his warehouse to hide from the wild animals and zombies. The old man was in search of his son Jordan. But his son turned as a zombie and Tara and Zhivago killed Jordan for collecting the blood sample. Van der Rossov was worried about that a lot but Zhivago convinced him and later they started moving towards Zhivago’s research lab. But they were interfered by a monster and surprisingly Zhivago’s friend Gary Kristen came there to rescue them with his Bren Machine g*n. The zombies and monsters were sensitive to water so whenever it rained they all were safe. Then they were accompanied by Zhivago’s other friend, Michael, who worked as an FBI agent. They all were involved in the process of finding the medicine to cure the virus that affected people who turned into zombies. Then Zhivago executed a plan and he was in need of certain types of medicinal plant to find the medicine so he assigned Gary Kristen and Tara, to go in search of those medicinal plants and when they both went to collect the medicinal plants, they were arrested by the soldiers. Colonel Henry Williams was the person who arrested Gary Kristen and Tara and they took them for the medical test. There, a tragedy occurred and Colonel Henry Williams lost his old memories and forgot that he had arrested Gary and Tara. Knowing that Gary and Tara used him to escape from the army headquarters and went back to their research lab. From there they all planned to go to Hawkins lab but unfortunately, the monster killed Zhivago and they all were depressed because of that. Then the army commander came to rescue Gary and his team members from the zombies and monsters. The monster had the power to turn invisible and attack everyone. So it was a difficult task for the army to handle. By that time on behalf of Zhivago, Tara found the medicine for the virus along with the Hawkins lab Director General, Dr.Adam Glenn, who had lost his vision in the tragedy. The virus created mutation in the genes of wild animals and turned them into monsters. At last the soldiers were ready to go for a war against those monsters. But the monsters turned invisible and were ready for the war with the soldiers. Since they were invisible it was difficult for the soldiers to battle, but they were saved from the monsters by the rain. Now Tara used the medicine against those monsters and finally they won the battle. Tara justified her dad’s death by saving the world.                                                                                                                            1 “May I know what’s your name?”, a voice heard by Jim who fell down due to an unknown attack that lead him to dizziness .Jim then somehow managed to get a clear vision of the person who was waking him up for readiness.Jim then he stood up and answered to the girl’s question that his name is Jim and then he asked about her name. “I’m Tara”, the girl replied.”What are we doing here?” asked Jim.”Shh”,Tara replied as the army helicopters were flying above them.They both then hide went under a car to hide .Jim silently was keep on asking that why they were hiding under the car.After few seconds,again they both heard the helicopter’s sound.Tara asked Jim to stay low and not to show any of his body parts outside the car.The helicopters were searching for any traces of movement across the San Francisco.The soldiers were ordered by the President to fire if they see any movements because they city was facing a rare kind of virus outbreak.After few minutes of searching the helicopters left the perimeter of Gary Boulevard street.Now Jim and Tara came out from under the car and they decided to get inside a house that was nearby the car .After jumping  the compound walls of that house they entered the garage to hide from the danger.Tara started searching for face mask to protect herself from the virus.Jim was totally confused as he don’t know what Tara was searching for.”Could you please tell me what’s going on”, asked Jim.”Our city is under virus outbreak.All of our people were almost dead because of this virus as far as I know.You were fell down dizzied.So I woke up you since I was running through that way and thought of having a companion during this tough times.Now we have to escape from this city.Now we both are in need of face masks that’s why I’m searching whether it is available here”,replied Tara.Then after few seconds she found more face masks in the back seat of the car that which was parked in the garage.She found more face masks because they were inside a microbiologist's house.Then Jim and Tara wore the face masks the surgical types.Tara then she gave a loaded pistol to Jim and asked him to follow her.They slowly moved inside the house.It was completely silent and there were no signs  for the presence of a zombie or a person.The windows of the house were shattered.They both were pointing the g*n and moving around.”No one here”, said Tara.They then closed the doors of the house and kept the furnitures touching the doors so that none could enter the house easily.They then went upstairs to search whether anyone was there are not. The place was completely silent and they could hear a drop of water falling on the bucket.Now they both were looking around everywhere in the upstairs and closed the windows and doors of balcony.”What’s that on your shoulders?”,asked Jim to Tara.Tara then she saw her shoulders and found it to be the drops of blood.She assumed that the blood drops would be fallen on her shoulders from above.So they both looked above.They saw the microbiologist’s neck was cut and he was hanged in a rope.Initially they couldn’t see him hanging as there wasn’t power to turn on the lights.Someone knocked the balcony door when they both were seeing the hanged person.Tara and Jim pointed the g*n towards the balcony door when they heard the knocking sound.The door was keep on knocked by someone and at a point the door opened.Both Tara and Jim were keep on firing after the door was knocked because they thought it would be the zombies.But no one was there behind the balcony doors and that made Tara and Jim to get confused.Then they moved towards the door silently step by step.They came out of the balcony door and they couldn’t see anyone.Tara and Jim were looking at each other’s face due to the confusion.A laser light was seen pointing on the humerus part of the right elbow of Jim.Tara was looking at the laser light and she didn’t know where the laser light was  from.Suddenly they heard a g*n firing sound and the bullet hit on the elbow of Jim.It was a sniper g*n's bullet and the blood splashed on the face of Tara.Tara then pulled Jim inside and she closed the doors of the balcony.The sniper shot three bullets on the balcony door but nothing hit both of them.Tara then she ran around the house in search of a first aid kit.She took a cloth and covered the wound region to stop the bleeding.She went down to the garage to take the first aid kit from the car.She found the first aid kit and she ran upstairs to do first aid for Jim.After reaching the upstairs she was confused because she found Jim was missing and the person who was hanging also went missing.Tara was completely afraid now and she sat on a chair and took deep long breaths.It was around evening at that time.She decided to go out of the house after few minutes because the sky will turn dark after few minutes.The sky turned dark after few minutes and she went down to go out of the house.She opened the door slowly with the g*n pointed towards the front and she came out.Immediately a sniper shot her leg in her left knee region and she fell down in front of the door and went inside the house crawling and she locked the door.She was crying with a lot of pain and she herself did first aid.Luckily she could find a pain killer inside the living room and she took it and injected herself.The bullet hit her on the pattelofemoral joint of her left knee so it was difficult for her to walk but she managed to stay inside the house with pain.She knew that she was in need of treatment but at that time it wasn’t possible and all her thoughts were focused on to escaping from the sniper and go somewhere else for the survival.She was waiting inside for few hours so that she could recover for time being and utilise the night time as an advantage to escape from the sniper.She was planning all those time and when the moment she believed her plan would work she decided to go out of the house now.She took the gas cylinder from the kitchen and placed it near the door.There was no electricity in the city so it was completely dark outside and the sniper can’t target anyone now.Tara then she went to the garage and she opened the door slowly.She then came back and removed the top of the cylinder and the hydrocarbon gas started spreading.She ran faster to the garage and got inside the car and started the car.She took a jet lighter and she threw it towards the cylinder and drove the car out of the garage.The cylinder blowed up and Tara made it as a distraction to the sniper and she escaped from there.But still the sniper could view the car because of the headlight so the sniper shot two bullets on the top of the car but it didn’t hit on Tara.Tara drove the car fastly and she was crying due to fear.Tara was under going exasperating situation because whenever she stamped the clutch her left leg was paining.She decided to go to the twin peaks and the navigation map in the car showed it was around 50kms from the place where she was driving.She prayed to the lord that no terrible should happen to her until she reaches that place.While driving she saw a USB cable inside the car.She took them and connect her mobile for charging.She looked everywhere to detect zombies and soldiers but nothing were there.After few minutes from there she started to think about her good old memories.                                                                                                      2 On May 1, 1999 Tara was doing her MSc Biochemistry.She was also involved in a research as a team member in the Hawkins research lab under the scientist Zhivago for the innovation of a medicine to cure sylvatic yellow fever caused by flavivirus.She was an exceptional student for Zhivago.It was her birthday so Zhivago called Tara to his house and he presented her a formula to find the  for sylvatic yellow fever.He did that because he wanted Tara to reach great heights innher life.”Why are you doing such a sacrifice.This formula makes you more esteemed but why you want me to deliver it as mine”, questioned Tara.Zhivago refused to answer her but he said that he will surely brief her about that in due course.Zhivago then he went ahead by asking about her personal life regarding her family, friends and future intentions.Tara was not interested to tell about her so she got angry on Zhivago.Zhivago got confused because of her anger reaction and he was clueless.”My dad left me and my mom when I was a kid.We stayed in Fresno during those days.My mom was suffering because of a viral disease and she passed away.I was brought up by Infant Toddler center in Irvine.I have a bad past life so please don’t ask about that”, saidTara.Zhivago was scrapped nervous and worried about her and he dropped Tara in her house in his Lincoln Town car.While coming back,Zhivago started crying.He came to his house and locked the doors and sat down crying tumultuously because Zhivago is the father of Tara who left Tara and her mother a long years ago. Tara came out of her past memories and she focused on her driving.She was driving on the roads of Colton.Zhivago’s house is in Colton so she drove the car to the Applewood Street.She found Zhivago’s house there but it appeared like a haunted house.She thought that the zombies might be the reason for that.Dead people were recessed on the ground and Tara had no other option by driving on them.After few minutes of travel from applewood Street Tara heard the sounds of whirlybird.She found the whirlybird behind her car at a stretch of around quarter mile.They had two 50 caliber machine guns and they targeted the car.Knowing that Tara drove her car in a crooked direction and that made the soldiers to find difficulty in targeting the car.But still the soldiers fired the car and Tara was lucky enough to escape from those bullets from hitting her.Unfortunately a bullet hit on the back tyre of the car and the speed of the car dropped down because the back tyre got punctured.Tara couldn’t drive crookedly from then onwards.Now they targeted the car accurately and Tara gave up escaping from them.She thought she was about to die.The moment when the soldier tried to pull of the trigger the headlights of the car got repaired and the light went off due to a defective alternator in the batteries.Tara was so prosperous that the whirlybird didn’t carry lights on it.Since it was completely dark they couldn’t target the car.The fog’s ratio was more during that time so it is difficult for Tara as well to drive the car.So Tara put an end to her driving and she got down and went inside a house.She could see more cadavers lying inside the house.She went near the windows to look for zombies gesticulations.She didn’t have any plans to go out now because of the flying whirlybird.She then looked for food inside the kitchen for a long time but all that she could find was ingredients available to cook a mustard onion bread.She then prepared the dish using the utensils over there.Then she took a bottle of water and drank.She ate her prepared dish sitting near the  cadavers because she didn’t have any other options.  She went to the bathroom to urinate.She didn’t flush the toilet because she feared that the sound might be heard outside and it would lead to redundant situations.She then again started to ponder about her old memories. It was a month before Christmas and Tara was in the discussion room of the Hawkins lab.She was going through the procedure for innovation of medicine for sylvatic yellow fever.The procedure was given to her by Zhivago.When she was reading,Tara’s friend Ervin Holland came there and informed Tara that she has received the portions for tomorrow’s practical assessment.Tara then she got the portions from her friend and she started reading.The portions were about the basic laboratory techniques of a biotechnology or bioscience lab,supplement and enrich the lecture portion of the course which deals predominantly with biotechnology techniques,develop critical thinking skills in students,encourage team work and accountability among the students,practice accuracy in calculations and in writing scientifically,develop multitasking skills , encourage students to take charge of their learning and learn the responsibilities associated with working in a company.Reading all this Tara became tired and she gave a Clement smile to Ervin Holland.Other students in Tara’s grade got motivation by seeing the way Tara handling the tasks and bringing up some new innovative ideas.Zhivago  met Tara and he gave some advices for taking prudent future actions in her life.Zhivago took so much efforts for her alone as he identified her as his daughter but Tara doesn’t know that Zhivago is her father.Tara after listening to all his advices she then went and amalgamated with her friends and merrymaking  Zhivago’s advices. Students then left the Hawkins research lab after few hours of cconversations and compositions. Tara stopped thinking about her past memories and she suddenly saw through the window of the house and noone was there.She looked out because she heard some noise.But no one was there.She then took her Glock 19 pistol and pointed forward and came out of the house.She then opened the door of the car and turned on the navigation map in the car and she planned a route to go to twin peaks through the woods.She carried a bag along with her having candles,matchsticks and knives.She started her journey from Colton and planned to reach Muir Woods within two days.She knew that it was too long to travel through walk but she doesn’t have any other option.She found a restaurant nearby so she went inside to collect foods and get some beer from Yale club that was a little longer from the restaurant.She removed her shoes and started her voyage.She removed her shoes as she was making sound while walk with shoes.While walking into the woods she heard the sounds of birds twittering and rustling of leaves in the trees.For each and every step She felt lot of pain in her knees.She was keep on thinking about the mystery behind the missing of Jim.                                                                                                           3 Tara was afraid that even if she escapes from the zombies and the viruses she may die due to depression and anxiety.While walking through the woods she heard some noise so she was hiding low on the ground and put the leaves and grasses on her and she viewed through a small hole for identifying the reason behind the unfamiliar sound in the woods.It was completely silent and she could feel her heartbeat raising.After few minutes, she decided to move from that place so she just tried to move the leaves at that time a humanoid robot placed it’s leg near Tara’s head.She didn’t even blink her eyes and almost she was skipping her heartbeats.Now her heartbeat started to raise.She didn’t move from that place.A earwig was crawling in Tara’s face but she couldn’t do anything because of the humanoid robot standing near her with a L4 variant Bren machine gun.It can fire around a rate of 500-520 rounds per minute.Tara then she waited for the humanoid robot to move and after two minutes the humanoid robot went away and immediately Tara used her hand to wipe the earwig that which was about to enter her nose.Then she stood up and started walking slowly looking around the woods having her Glock 19 pistol pointed towards her front.Half a mile she crossed holding the pistol in the same manner.Then she couldn’t hold the weight of the pistol so she kept the pistol in her bag and sat there for few minutes.Then she started walking again.While walking she stamped a earwig and it’s blood splashed on her foot.It was very weird to look.She then bent down to clean her foot at that time a bullet was fired and it missed Tara's head and hit on the tree.Tara was struck at that moment and she turned towards her left and she saw what was that.There were two humanoid  robots pointing the Bren machine g*n at Tara.Tara without even considering her wound in the left knee she started running to save her from the robots attack.Robots were keep on firing the bullets targeting Tara and it hit only on the tress as she ran in a zigzag manner.A cub bear was standing near one of the humanoid robot.The robot saw the cub bear and found it as a threat to it.So it turned it’s Bren Machine g*n towards the bear cub.Within a fraction of second,the gigantic mother bear came furiously from the backside of the humanoid robot and it attacked the humanoid robot with it’s long sharp nails.The humanoid robots that which were firing Tara turned it’s firing on the mother bear.The bullets pierced into the body of mother bear .Seeing that the cub bear ran away as it was frightened hearing the sound of the Bren Machine g*n while firing.Baring the pain the mother bear almost reached near another humanoid robot but it died before smashing the robot with its long sharp nails.Tara fell down in a mud slide and she rolled and went near the beds of Truckee river. She was running out of food and water.Her water bottle which she had in her bag hardly had two to three drops of water.Her leg was paining a lot.If she has got a doloriometer the pain value would have been measured around 40 del’s.A human being could bare only up to 45 del’s.Tara’s adrenaline was also pumping very high.After few minutes Tara lay down under the tree for a nap and she started to think about her past life. Two years ago ,inside the Hawkins research lab Tara was reading the research methods of Zhivago’s thesis for sylvatic yellow  fever.She wasn’t completely satisfied to show Zhivago’s thesis as her's.She was highly disappointed for accepting it initially to Zhivago but now she was feeling very guilty for taking such a decision.Zhivago came at that time and she saw his daughter Tara sitting in the chair and worrying.Zhivago then he made an enquiry to Tara about her situation.Tara initially refused to tell but Zhivago forced her to to tell.Tara then she said that she felt more guilty to show his thesis as hers and earn good name without putting in any efforts for the research.Zhivago smiled at Tara and he asked her not to feel about that.He further said that he took this decision having her prudent future in his mind.Tara couldn’t accept  that completely.She said that her .”What did your mother said”, asked Zhivago.”She used to tell me ,you have to push yourself because no one else is going to do it for you”answered Tara and she went away from the lab keeping his research thesis aside on the table.Since those words were from his wife Elsy , Zhivago couldn’t control shedding his tears.Since Tara wasn’t near him he cried without any restrictions.On that night ,Tara and her friend Ervin Holland went to Ervin Holland's house for studies.Ervin made Tara to feel comfortable in her home and she gave her a glass of apple juice and she went inside her bedroom.”Could you get me a glass of water “, asked Tara.Since Ervin Holland was changing her dress she asked Tara to go to the kitchen so that she could find the water bottle over there.Tara wnt to the kitchen and she was drinking water.”I have found your father”, saidErvin Holland from her bedroom.Hearing that Tara paused drinking water and she kept the water bottle down without closing the cap and she asked ,”What are you saying,Ervin”. Tara came out of her  past memories.She was sitting under the fremont cottonwood tree.Her injury on the leg was quite severe.The remaining humanoid robots were in search of her.She then took her water bottle from the bag and she went near the river by crawling.Since she drank fastly she started to make hiccups.The river flow was smooth so only her hiccups sound was heard loud.After few seconds of her hiccups a drone came flying there and pointed a laser light on her and captured her image.Seeing the drone Tara was afraid and her hiccups stopped due to that.But this time Tara didn’t feel like running away from the drone.She remembered what her mother said to her when she faces a tough situation.She closed her eyes and visualised her mother’s words.’The eagle has no fear of adversity,we need to be like that eagle and have a fearless spirit of a conqueror’.Then she opened her eyes and shouted loudly at the drone and took her Glock 19 pistol and fired two bullets in the drone.The drone lost its control and fell down inside the river and it went along with the flow of the river.Hearing the loud sound of Tara's voice a humanoid robot came running towards her.Tara then she pointed her Glock 19 pistol targeting the humanoid robot and triggered the pistol but there weren’t any bullets.So she threw the Glock 19 pistol at the humanoid robot on it’s face and she jumped in the river.The river was flowing towards the North side of California so she was going far away from twin peaks.Tara couldn’t hold anything while she was in the river.She we almost in dizziness due to the heavy flow of river after crossing a quarter mile from Tara jumped into the river.The humanoid robot was programmed to search Tara from a person sitting in his basement.The humanoid robot then started to move following the direction of the river to kill Tara                                                                                                     4 Tara after a long minutes of travelling in the river she was desolated in the shore.She was about to dizzied while she was in the river but the moment she hit the rock made her to regain her conscious.After gaining conscious Tara moved inside the woods,it was cold she couldn’t bare the chillness inside the forest.She was shivering a lot.She took a lighter from her bag but it was not working as it was completely wet.She was taking heavy breaths.She then decided to create a camp fire using stones.Tara took two stones and she started stroking.After few minutes she somehow managed to produce fire spark and took some dry leaves and made the size of the fire much more bigger and she felt warm by showing her hands at the fire and running her hands for warmness and massaged around her face.She then thought of giving up her fight for surviving so she decided to commit  but she couldn’t do that..She was hungry but she couldn’t find anything to eat.The sunlight was going down at that time.Tara then she decided to use her knowledge as a weapon to overcome the obstacles.She searched around the place for a strong stick.After few minutes she found one and then she sharpened the corner of the stick and made it like an javelin.Now having that stick in her hand she moved inside the river holding the rocks in her one hand and was ready for fishing.She waited for several minutes but she couldn’t find any fish.She was draining out of energy so that she couldn’t stand any longer so she gave up on fishing and just lying on the rock seeing the sunset.She closed her eyes because of energy draining.Suddenly her mother’s words came into her mind saying that ‘ my dear Tara you are born with potential and you can fly high.She opened her eyes and stood on the rock with the stick.She saw a mourning dove near a tree.She then threw the stick facing the bird ,it hit on the bird and she caught the bird,used it as her food by showing it in the fire created by her for warming.She then started eating the mourning dove by removing the wings and feathers of the bird.Initially,she didn’t like it but she had only that to eat for time being so she adjusted with what she had.After few minutes she vomitted what she ate.And Tara went near the river and she cleaned her mouth and drank the river water.She then sat down under a tree near the camp fire and started to think about her past memories from where she left. “Tomorrow surely I will tell you who is your father till then be patient.Now you go and have a good sleep”,s aid Ervin Holland to Tara.The next day they attended the practical class.Zhivago more than lecturing about the bio molecules he explained about the importance of civilization.He lectured to the students that everyone must never forget that the only reason human keep bonding together in every large numbers is because it enhances our ability to survive as a species.If it did not do so,those human traits we called”civilized” would have been extinguished generations ago and the traits we call  would have predominanted.Hearing this all the students were yawning and they found it difficult to while away their time because the lecture seemed to be boring and not all interesting at any point.After few minutes Zhivago completed his lecture and asked the students to take break for the next fifteen minutes .Ervin Holland took Tara along with her to Zhivago’s offoffe room.No other staffs were there except Zhivago.Zhivago was drinking a cup of coffee and having some cookies.Ervin Holland and Tara were slowly heading towards him.Zhivago after taking a sip of coffee he turned towards right and saw Ervin Holland and Tara walking towards him.Ervin then saw Tara’s face and stared at her for a while.Tara was bit confused and asked,”Why are you looking at me now?”.Ervin then she turned towards Zhivago and asked him to show his money wallet.Zhivago couldn’t understand why she was asking his wallet.”Sir could you show us your money wallet”,Ervin Holland asked again.Zhivago having Elsy's picture in his wallet he refused to show Ervin Holland as Tara was also standing along with her.Since Zhivago knew Tara was angry at him he thought she might discontinue her studies because of him.Having all these calculations in his mind he refused to show his wallet to them.The break time was about to get over.Only three minutes were left.After that everyone should assemble in Zhivago’s practical class.Ervin Holland asked Zhivago to show his wallet and she started forcing him to show as the break time was about to end.Tara seeing the behavior of Ervin Holland she asked her to stay calm.Now only one minute was left in the entire break time and Zhivago didn’t finish his cup of coffee because of them. Ervin Holland finally she took the wallet of Zhivago without his permission and she showed that to Tara.Tara saw her mother’s picture in that and she got confused.”Sir why are you having my mother’s photo in your wallet”, asked Tara.Ervin Holland then she said to Tara that Zhivago is her dad.Zhivago had tears in his eyes when Tara came to know that Zhivago is her father. The break time was also over and Tara without even speaking anything to both Zhivago and her friend Ervin Holland she just went out of Zhivago’s office room.Tara had mild tears and Ervin Holland gave the wallet to Zhivago and then she ran following Tara.They both went inside the classroom.Zhivago was standing in his office room dumbstruck and it was silence surrounding him.He feared that Tara might discontinue her studies and in general now the lecturer is more afraid than the student to attend the practical class.Zhivago’s hands were shivering to stand in front of his daughter Tara.He then started giving lectures for the students.Twenty per cent of the students were absent for the class as they bunked their class due to disinterest.Zhivago was a person who strictly takes necessary actions against the absentees but now he totally lost his focus on that.Zhivago’s hands were still shivering looking at Tara but he asked the students to learn about their respective objectives till fifteen past three.Zhivago was looking at Tara because she was learning her objectives having mild tears.Zhivago was looking at Tara and Tara suddenly saw Zhivago at that time Zhivago turned his face looking somewhere else as he didn’t have confidence to look at her.Zhivago then thought of conveying Tara through lecturing about general civilization.”The laws of evolution apply to civilizations as surely as to species and individuals only the fittest survive.So it is a foolish civilization that never acts in such a way as to interfere with the successful reproduction of its own citizens.Whether consciously or not ,the citizens of such a civilization will abandon it,either by moving such away or by reducing their allegiance to it until they are willing to see it be conquered,overthrown,or culturally transformed back into a reproduction enhancing entity.By hearing this Tara understood that Zhivago gave the lecture for her personally and he wanted her to know about the fact that Zhivago wasn’t fit during those days when tara was a baby and that might be the reason for him to leave her and her mother.But Tara couldn’t accept that whole heartedly at that moment. Tara who was sitting under the tree was back to the present moment.It was quite few hours after eating the mourning dove.Now she planned to walk from there so she stood up with her paining leg.Birds started twittering and they flew from the trees due to some movement in the forest.Tara realised that something is not good around her in the woods.She heard the machine sound from a distance because the forest was completely quiet.Tara found that the humanoid robot was in search of her.She decided to run but something made her to change her mind from running away to stay there and put up a fight.She started to think because she strongly believes knowledge can be used as a weapon to fight battles.Her father’s words came to her mind now that only the fittest survive ‘.She then decided to fight against the humanoid robot which was coming towards her from a certain distance.                                                                                                  5 The humanoid robot was nearing Tara and Tara was setting a trap by using the broken woods as well as the shrubs.Her plan was to distract the humanoid robot and escape from there so that she could travel towards the North side of California and reach twin peaks.Twin peaks was far away from the actual geographical location of Tara and she could go only through walking.Therfore it will consume a lot of time for her to reach the twin peaks.She should go there without making any sound in between so that she might reach the destination without getting into any trouble.She then started to execute her plans by collecting the strong woods here and there scattered.She somehow managed to do it without making any noise and baring the pain in her leg.Then she luckily found a hole near her even in that night time.She then used used the tree climbers as rope and stretched it and tied from every tree to tree around her.Inside the hole it was a quagmire so that when the humanoid robot steps there it will go under the soil.So she decided to trap the humanoid robot around there.Now she managed to climb the tree and stayed low in a branch and she was looking for the humanoid robot that which was nearing her.After few minutes there was a movement in the bushes.Tara holded her breath and started murmuring in a low voice with a tense face saying ,”come on ,come on “,but unfortunately it was a jackrabbit.But,still Tara was afraid because she thought that the rabbit might get into that trap and end up her plan get failed.It was nail biting moment for her looking at the jackrabbits footsteps towards the quagmire.Tara almost had her heart in her mouth when the jackrabbit stood near the wood that which was supposed to hit the humanoid robot if it stamps.But after few minutes jackrabbit went away and Tara's fear vanished.She then saw the moon and was admiring it.A bat flew near her and she missed her focus from the moon.She heard the noise of the humanoid robot at that time.She then looked down and the humanoid robot was staring at her.Tara’s heartbeat started increasing and she started sweating because of fear.The humanoid robot raised it’s Bren Machine g*n targeting Tara.Tara immediately jumped down from the tree and she screamed loudly because of the pain in her injured leg.She felt that her pain value almost exceeded the maximum value of 45 dels.The robot took a step forward before firing Tara,it stamped on the stretched climber and made it cut leading to the falling of strong wood on it.The g*n started firing in random directions and the robot fell into quagmire and started going under the ground.Since the weight of the humanoid robot was heavy the sinking speed was also high.Tara forgot her pain when she saw the humanoid robot sinking inside the quagmire.After the humanoid robot sinked completely in the quagmire it lost it’s control.After few hours Tara started moving from that place.She decided to go along the direction of the truckee river’s flow because she felt it as the safest direction to travel.She almost took an hour to cover fifteen to twenty metres due to the pain in her leg.She sat down near a tree because she was draining without inadequate food.She felt sleepy and the sunrise was about to take place.She closed her eyes and started to think about her past memories that happened after Zhivago’s practical class in the Hawkins research lab.  Tara and Ervin Holland completed their practical class and they went to Tara’s house.Tara was crying a lot and she couldn’t control her emotion.Ervin Holland asked her not cry.”When did you came to know that Zhivago is my father”, asked Tara.Ervin Holland was silent for a moment and then she replied that she came to know about this when she went to Zhivago’s house to clear her doubts regarding the detailed analysis of instruments used in a microbiology lab.”When I went to Zhivago sir’s house he got some important call from the Hawkins lab so he asked me to wait in his living room and he said he will be back after few minutes as he was supposed to sign some papers for research approval works.He took his car and he went to our Hawkins lab.It was boring for me being alone there.I thought of leaving his house but I couldn’t so I started to roam inside sir’s house.I locked the main door and went upstairs.I went to his bedroom and randomly glanced over his cupboard and I found an attractive photo was being framed and kept there.When I took that frame I saw your’s and your mom Elsy’s photo behind that frame kept hidden.He has written his memories that he had with you both in that photo.Because of this I was on a curiosity voyage to know the reason.Then I found a diary on a table that was near the cupboard.I took the diary and started reading it.When I read that diary I came to know that Zhivago sir is your father.I thought of reading it completely but Zhivago sir came at that time and he rang the door bell so I kept those things where it was and ran downstairs to open the door.Then I asked my doubts and then I went to my home”,explained Ervin Holland.Tara was sitting silently after hearing all this and she started visualizing what Ervin Holland said to her.Door bell rang at that moment and Ervin Holland went and opened the door and she saw Zhivago standing there.Zhivago wasn’t bothered to see Ervin Holland and he was looking at Tara.Tara and Ervin Holland both were staring at him shockingly because of his surpise visit to Tara’s home.Zhivago then entered the room and he sat near his daughter Tara.Tara was not interested to speak with her dad Zhivago.Ervin Holland was looking at both of them without blinking her eyes for a while.Zhivago then he began to explain about the reason for leaving Tara and Elsy.”I don’t know know whether my reason will convince you and vanish the anger in you on me but I couldn’t have done nothing better than leaving you both on that day.It was around six months sincve you were born.I was working in a research lab in San Fransisco.One day I received a phone call from the research lab and they said it was an emergency situation and they were in need of me.They didn’t have time to explain me in detail so I informed your mom about this and I went to the research lab.There all the workers were running here and there and I was confused about that.Then I met my senior officer of that research lab Dr.Madkins.He said me that they have found an artificial virus named Lovid-11 and unfortunately it affected one of our scientist and it started spreading from him to other scientists who were working along with him.Dr.Madkins asked me to stay there until we found a solution for that.Since I’m an expert in finding medicines for the viral diseases they were in need of me.We didn’t want the virus to spread further so we closed the door of the research lab as we didn’t want anyone from our lab to go out and affect our citizens.I began my research work and found the characteristics of the Lovid-11 virus and I was completely involved in the process of finding the medicine.Dr.Madkins was very concerned about my efforts.I took more days to find the medicine and before that we informed the situation to the Health Ministry of San Fransisco.During that hectic times I forgot about my family and I know that’s a biggest mistake that anyone could commit.Your mom tried calling me for several days but I couldn’t communicate with her.The news channels telecasted about us that whether we were alive or not.San Fransisco was under lockdown for several months and when I came out of the research lab all that I could see was birds,trees and vacant roads.I came to our house but Elsy and you were not there.Then I searched for you and Elsy roaming the entire city but I couldn’t find you both.Then I registered a complaint to our cops and continued to do my regular day to day works.The cops weren’t serious about my problem so they delayed taking proper steps for my complaint.Now,after long years of struggle I found my daughter who is a student for mine.I didn’t leave you both knowingly.It was the situation that separated me from you both.I’m really sorry for that but I’m also proud of you for reaching this heights in your life”,explained Zhivago and he started to cry as he couldn’t control his emotions.Tara aslo had tears in her eyes and after listening to Zhivago’s explanation she hugged Zhivago as she understood  his reason for leaving her and her mother Elsy.Then both had an affectionate conversation for a long time and Erin Holland also joined them and started cracking jokes.Then Zhivago asked Tara about her days with Elsy like how they were and where they were and how did she passed away.He asked everything in detail to Tara.Since it was World’s Mother’s Day Tara was crying when she was answering to Zhivago’s questions about her mother Elsy.Seeing that Zhivago gave a hug to Tara and he holded her hands and that made Tara to feel secured.They all then decided to go to a restaurant nearby Tara’s home.They went to Maybeck’s restaurant.When they entered the restaurant the chef came and said,”sorry sir the restaurant is closed.You may leave now”.Hearing this Tara was worried.Ervin Holland was not all bothered about that because she wasn’t feeling hungry as she ate all the cookies and sandwiches that were in the kitchen of Tara’s home.Zhivago didn’t want their dinner to end in this way because it was their first dinner.The other restaurants were also closed as it was late night.So Zhivago decided to request the chef for allowing him to cook food by himself.But the chef didn’t allow him.Zhivago then narrated all the incidents that happened in his past life to the chef to earn his sympathy for getting permission.The chef was taking time to decide at that time Zhivago came up with a decision and he said ,“I will pay you twice the price of the dish and I will cook myself.The chef felt it as a good deal so he accepted that and he allowed Zhivago to enter their restaurant’s kitchen.Zhivago asked Tara and Ervin Holland to wait until the dish was prepared.Zhivago entered the kitchen and he planned to cook his favorite dish Bodega Bay Cioppino.He searched for the ingredients inside the kitchen and he got them.Zhivago knew it will take time if he cooks the entire dish by himself so he asked the chef to help him but the chef replied that he was willing to help him but on a condition.Zhivago then he asked what was his condition and the chef said that by paying thrice the price of the dish he will help him.Zhivago then he looked at his wallet and he didn’t have enough dollars so he decided to cook the dish by himself.Zhivago started his preparation.Tara and Ervin Holland were speaking about their practical class.Zhivago was preparing the dish with lot of enthusiasm because he was going to serve the dish for his daughter Tara.After few minutes Zhivago was in need of sauce and he searched for it.At that time he found preservatives named butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytoluene.These preservatives were banned by the government because it was dangerous to consume.Zhivago was shocked by seeing that but he didn’t react there.                                                                                             6 Zhivago felt hungry so he ate a piece of wheat bread that was near him in the kitchen.Tara and Ervin Holland were drinking juice as Zhivago was delaying to prepare the dish.At last Zhivago prepared the dish Bodega Bay Cioppino and served it to his daughter and Ervin Holland.They all ate the dish joyfully and left the restaurant without paying the chef because the chef was sleeping and they took advantage of it.Zhiavgo then he dropped Tara and Ervin Holland in Tara’s house.Before leaving from there Zhivago asked Tara to stay with him hereafter but Tara didn’t want that to happen because she doesn’t want her classmates to know that Zhivago is her father.Zhivago also agreed that and he said bye to her daughter and Ervin Holland and he left the place. Tara woke up from her sleep and she looked around the woods.Her wound in the leg was getting worse.She was starving due to lack of food.All that she had was river water to drink.Then she looked around the woods for edible leaves and she leaves of chamerion angustifolium.She ate only those leaves and started moving from there along the riverside.It was difficult for her to walk because of the wound.Since she jumped from the tree she couldn’t walk properly as the size of the wound got bigger due to the pressure in her legs.Tara felt like dying.She heard a bear making some sound at a certain distance in her surrounding.She thought that it will eat her anyway so her death was confirmed.So she closed her eyes and slept near the river and waited for the dear to eat her.After closing her eyes she heard some noise of big footsteps nearing her.She felt the vibration caused by the footsteps as she was lying on the ground.Tara imagined that the bear was nearing her because the vibration was much more higher now.After few seconds a hand touched Tara and Tara was frightened and she opened her eyes to see what it was.It was her dad Zhivago who touched her hands.He came there to rescue Tara.”This time I won’t leave you my dear”, said Zhivago.Tara on hearing that she started crying and she didn’t feel the pain anymore because the world’s best companion for every daughters are their fathers.Zhivago then carried Tara on his shoulders and started walking 37 degrees east from the truckee river.While Zhivago was walking Tara asked,”dad, where are we going now”.”We have a basement research lab in this forest 500 metres from where we are now”, saidZhivago.Since Tara was starving she wasn’t ready to ask questions anymore until she recovers from  her injuries.She hoped that her dad Zhivago will take care of her hereafter.Zhivago was cautious that he doesn’t make any noise until they reach their basement research lab as it might lead to unnecessary consequences if he makes any noise.Blood bleeding from Tara’s wounded leg painted Zhivago’s shirt red.Tara was looking around everywhere for threats like drones,humanoid robots and wild animals.But they were lucky that none interfered them.After long minutes of struggle Zhivago somehow managed to reach his basement research lab carrying Tara on his shoulders.Without making Tara to feel the pressure on her legs he made her to stand.He then removed the bushes that he used to hide the doors of his basement research lab.Zhivago then he used his fingerprint to open the door.The door opened and Zhivago took Tara inside his basement research lab.There Zhivago had everything for a human to lead a life.Zhivago made Tara to lie down on a table and he was collecting the required medical apparatus to treat her wound.He was almost going to execute a surgery.Zhivago was a kind of person who thinks it is better to do something than nothing as he was going to take risk for the recovery of his daughter.He doesn’t know whether his treatment will work or not but he was ready to execute looking at the condition of the wound.He brought the required instruments for surgery such as endoscopes,70-degreelenses and condyle retractors.Using all this Zhivago did a minor surgery on her left knee and he injected pain killers so that she could manage her pain hereafter.Tara went to a deep sleep and Zhivago was looking at her.Zhivago knew that once Tara wakes up he has lot of things to do for survival.He then took his satellite phone to communicate with whom he gets the signal.He was keep on saying hello expecting a reply from anyone if they were alive.It was almost fifteen minutes Zhivago started saying hello in the satellite phone and he didn’t get any reply so he kept the phone aside and was thinking about the situation prevailing in the colton city and he felt that the situation was much worse than the one that happened during Lovid-11 virus outbreak long years ago in San Fransisco.After few hours Tara woke up from her sleep and she saw Zhivago writing some chemical formulas in the paper.”Dad why are you writing chemical formulas now”,asked Tara.Seeing her,Zhivago put his pen and paper on the table and he came near Tara and asked,”are you alright”.”Yes dad I feel better now”’replied Tara.Tara then she asked for a glass of water and he brought her water.She then woke up from the table and went to the rest room to urinate.Zhivago was checking her legs while she was walking. After few minutes Tara came back from the restroom.Zhivago gave her a piece of bread and three pieces of yellowin tuna fish which he got from the river.Tara ate those very fastly as she was hungry from morning.Zhivago felt how much hungrier she was.”How did you come into the woods”,asked Zhivago.She narrated all the incidents that happened from the beginning.When Zhivago heard about the humanoid robots he guessed that it might be hid friend Gary Kristen who was a robotics professor in a university.Tara also said that the humanoid robots were carrying guns in it’s hands.Zhivago asked about the guns appearance.Tara then explained about the shape of the g*n and Zhivago guessed it would be the Bren machine guns and he almost declared after that it was his friend Gary Kristen behind the drone and the humanoid robots.”If we are lucky enough we could contact my friend Gary Kristen and join with him and fight together for survival”’said Zhivago.Tara asked Zhivago that what has happened to their city and Zhivago explained it was because of some unknown virus outbreak.Each one were calling the virus by their own names that’s how the present scenario was prevailing.Tara then she had doubts about those robots and she asked “dad how do you guess that it is your friend Gary Kristen behind those invention of humanoid robots and drones”.”Well my dear it’s my guess that’s all nothing else.I would like to explain you what happened after our first dinner”, saidZhivago and he started explaining about that. “After dropping you and Ervin Holland in your house I went to my home and called my friend who is working as an FBI agent.His name is Michael.I called him and informed him about the banned preservatives that I found in the restaurant where we went for our dinner.I saw it as a big issue because those preservatives down the power of our immune systems and I connected with the news that I read earlier in the newspaper.Our government found that our enemies are planning for a biological war and I considered those preservatives as an initial step for the bio-war”, saidZhivago.”Dad but what it has to do with this virus outbreak”, asked Tara.”My dear you have to connect the dots.The chef who was working in that restaurant was from North Korea and you know those days our country had fight with North Korea.I think it might be their plan to send people of their country to our country and prepare dishes and add preservatives that destroys our immune system and then spread their virus in our country so that our death rate would be much more higher”, explained Zhivago.”But dad how do you know that they are adding those poisonous preservatives in all the restaurants around our country”, asked Tara.”To confirm that, me and my friend Michael investigated all the restaurants around our city and found each and every restaurant had a working guy from North Korea that made me to strongly believe about the news that I read”, answered Zhivago.”Now Tara could understand that World War 3 has begun and it was a bio-war .Then Tara came up with a doubt.”Dad in what way will it will be an advantage for them by targeting our restaurants”, asked Tara. “Listen Tara 40% of our population are affording food in the restaurants .So it will be easy for them to execute their bo-war.The 40% population can be classified into two types of people .One kind are the students who go to schools and colleges and the other kind are businessmen .If these people suffer from carcinogenicity by affording the dishes that contain poisonous preservatives then imagine the economy of our country as well the innovations from the next generations gets spoiled and it’s the biggest target of our enemies to bring us down”, said Zhivago and Tara was impressed for the way Zhivago thinks .After eating the bread and fish pieces Tara asked ,”dad what happened to your friend Michael” .”I couldn’t contact him for a while as he was busy in his works .But now I’m clueless about him because of this virus outbreak”, said Zhivago.Zhivago then he asked about Ervin Holland and Tara said,”she went to Los Angeles with her boyfriend and I don’t know about her now whether she is alive or not”.Zhivago was worried about that and literally he had tears.Both were sitting silently looking around the research lab everywhere.”Dad how we are going to fight this virus outbreak”,asked Tara.Zhivago didn’t have any answer for that and all that he was waiting for was a person to get connected to his call through the satellite phone and team up with them to fight for their survival.Zhivago was sharing a great camaraderie with Michael from his childhood but now he hardly thinks about him because of his daughter Tara.Since Michael was an FBI agent Zhivago guessed that he might be surviving somewhere in this world as he was the one who was exposed to hard trainings to survive in any conditions.”Do we have any weapons inside this research lab”, asked Tara.”I don’t keep any weapons in a research lab”,replied Zhivago.He also said that he have materials related to biochemistry studies and chemical powders for research purpose.So Tara concluded that they can’t plan for survival imagining the weapons anymore.So she decided to plan to survive utilizing with what they have now.And she felt that she could plan much more better for surviving if they connect the call with anyone using their satellite phones.                                                                                         7 Tara stretched her legs and started to meditate so that she could find a solution for the present scenario.Zhivago was reading his old novels for relaxing.The bears and tigers were roaming outside the basement research lab.Since the river was nearby the basement research lab to hunt fishes bears frequently roams there.After twenty to thirty minutes of meditation Tara opened her eyes and said,”I got an idea”, she said.Zhivago then he closed his novel and asked Tara,”what is your idea my dear”.”Why can’t you find the medicine for this virus using all the chemical powders that are available in our research lab”, said Tara.”No my dear we can’t try that because we don’t even now the characteristics of this virus.As far as I observed this virus affects the human beings and turns them into wild and they reach higher level of hunger and start roaming for food and finally some starve to death while some commits suicide”, said Zhivago.”Is this virus is due to the effect of those poisonous preservatives”, asked Tara.”I don’t think so it might be the cause for this kind of virus but there is no use of speaking about that now because Michael after investigating he registered a case on those restaurants for using the banned preservatives that leads to carcinogenicity and our government supported us by banning all those preservatives within a week after Michael submitting the evidences.It happened around six months before and now we are facing completely a different kind of a problem”, said Zhivago.They had a kind of conversation that was beating around the bush about the past incidents and it had nothing to come up with innovative ideas or a proper kind of solution to sort out this problem.They feared that both of them might sit like that and keep on have conversations only to pass away their time and not finding any solution for the virus outbreak.”What idea do you have dad”, asked Tara.”Well I’m in need of a virus affected person’s blood”, said Zhivago.”You mean zombies?” asked Tara.”Yes my dear.Using the zombies blood I can start my research works and identify the characteristics of the virus.Then I will involve into the process of finding the medicine and then inject the medicine into the zombies and turn them as normal human beings.My findings should also act as an antibiotic”, said Zhivago.”But dad do you think out of this basement research lab we could find any zombies or humans”, asked Tara.”Human beings might be hiding somewhere else like how we both are hiding there.So always there are possibilities”, said Zhivago.Tara was convinced.”Whenever this kind of outbreaks occurs our country will close the borders, they won’t allow anyone to enter or anyone to go out of the country until we arrive at a solution “, said Zhivago.”But dad I’m sure that the moment border security forces sees us they will shot us”, said Tara.Zhivago after hearing this he thought that he should plan according to all the obstacles that were  outside the basement research lab.And he had in his mind that he should overcome the military forces as well to reach the safest place.Zhivago is a master in finding the solutions for the problems as he has more experience working as a scientist for finding medicines for the diseases for the past twelve years.But in between he took gaps to maintain his health condition by staying away from all those chemicals and X-rays.But now all that Zhivago and Tara could was sitting in their lab and eating bread pieces and cooked the fishes that he kept inside his refrigerator. They didn’t go out as they were afraid about the wild animals, zombies and the humanoid robots. Meanwhile the President gave a speech to the press addressing about the safety measures and announced lockdown for a month.Further he said that the soldiers were ordered to fire on the zombies as they had no other option as of now because of lack of medicine for this particular virus.The army men will be roaming inside the streets and the helicopters will be searching for the zombies to kill them.So the President said that without any warning soldiers will shoot the person if they roam outside their houses.   The President instructed  the people to show  a white colored cloth  to the soldiers so that they won’t fire on them If they show the white colored cloth means they will consider as they were normal people.If they fail to do this and appear in front of the soldiers means they would be shot dead even by a mistake informed President.The media started telecasting the news in all news channels and the people who were struggling in their house came to know about that.While the rest of them turned as zombies Now the army commander Bruce Williams ordered the army men to assemble before him and he gave orders to them.Now they used the trucks,tanks and helicopters to begin their mission.”Don’t be afraid of losing your lives, the person whom we might face as our opponents are not the ones who are trained like you people.They are normal people who live their day to day life by going to a 9-5 job.They can’t attack you unless you fear for them.Be brave and stick to the instructions given of our President and see to that you rescue people who are not affected by the virus.Do everyone understand”, ordered Bruce Williams.”Yes sir”, all the soldiers answered.”Now all of you get into your vehicles and move forward .Go ,go .Move fast “, commanded Bruce Williams.Tara and Zhivago didn’t have any source for receiving the video delivered by the President and they decided to come out of the basement research lab and they were getting ready to come out.At the same time the army men flooded the city to shoot and kill the zombies and rescue the normal people.Tara and Zhivago are completely in danger now.Tara and Zhivago were out of their basement now.they have serious threat bow because t hey can be targeted and hit from anywhere.All that they had was a bag with breads  torch lights and a stick sharpened at the end looking like a javelin.It was the only weapon they have now.They came out of the basement research lab and closed the doors and they scattered the bushes and broken branches on the door of the basement research lab to hide it from threat.Now  Tara and Zhivago started their journey to find a zombie to take it’s blood sample for research.It was the only way for him to find the medicine for this virus They walked around half a mile and reached the mid of the woods and stayed there for few minutes to take rest.”Dad, do you think we can execute our plan without any weapons”,asked Tara.”I don’t think so my dear “, laughed Zhivago.Zhivago was completely out of plan about how they were going to handle the situation when a zombie interferes them suddenly.there are some additional things in Zhivago’s bag but carried only a loaf of bread as she wasn’t allowed by Zhivago to carry loads on her shoulder due to the surgery done in her leg.At this time,the helicopters were flying everywhere around the city to find the zombie.The tanks were covering the perimeter of the forests because there were many troubles around those regions.The trucks were loaded with many army men having AK47 machine guns and all the soldiers were wearing masks to protect them from the virus spread.President was thinking alone sitting in his room.He was the one who was most worried as the condition of the country went out of control.All that he had in his mind was to go for a m******e killing of the virus affected o people to avoid further spread.But he kept that as a last option and he hoped that scientists would find the medicine before it reaches that condition.The army men placed their sniper in the alternate buildings and was looking for a clear shot from those buildings.The truck with the army men were moving slowly inch by inch as they have entered the red zone of the city.Other countries blocked their borders and they made their citizens to be in quarantine and they announced lockdown till the problem gets solved.The virus didn’t spread from California to other states but still they took the precautions.People in other countries were worried about the problems prevailing in California.Due to lockdown the stock market crashed and some were worried only about that.Sniper 1 sat on the terrace of a house and he was observing for movements of zombies.the tanks were loaded with missiles”The road is clear,for you copy”, said sniper 1.”okay we are moving forward”,r replied a soldier.”Snioer 2 do you copy . what’s the position ahead the north of this Street.snuoer 2 do you copy,snioer 2 do you copy”,t he officer in charge of this team shouted .Sniper 2 didn’t answer as he was dead in the terrace of building where he was asked to take incharge. The army people were looking inside the houses to find zombies as well as serving human beings.After few minutes the officer ordered the soldiers who were inside the truck to get down with their Lewis machine guns and take positions and move forward.Meanwhile when tara and Zhivago were walking inside the Forest they saw a mobile phone fell down and damaged.But it was working.the mobile had only 20% charge.Zgivagonthe he turned in the mobile data and he browsed the net for current affairs and they came across the president’s ssppech in YouTube and they came to know that the soldiers were moving inside the city and woods as well.sonthey now searched for white cloths to avoid g*n fire bybthe soldiers at them.Xhuvago took the mobile phone with him since he remembered the contact numbers of his friends Michael and Gary Kristen he tried calling them using that phone.He first called Micheal the call didn’t connect initially and he tried again and now he got connected.Micahel didn’t pick up the call.then he called Gary Kristen but Gary Kristen also didn’toick up the call.”what happened dad ,winter any response”,a used Tara.Zhivago was fed up and he called Gary Kristen again and again several times but he didn’t oi the call.because of this Zhivago thought they both were no more.Keep on thinking about that Zhivago was frustrated and he threw the phone and sat down because he didn’t know what to do next as he was confused.Tara then she gently touched her father’s shoulders and she asked him to stay calm so that he might end up having some good ideas to proceed further.At that time the mobile phone rang Zhivago and Tara were surprised and they rushed towards the mobile phone and they took the phone.the call was from an unknown number.Zhivago attended the call and turned On the loud speakers as he wanted Tara to hear as well.                                                                                                  8 Meanwhile the soldiers reached the end of the street and they decided to spread from there.So the soldiers were divided into four different teams with equal weapon power“Hello, hello. Jordan are you there.This is your dad Van der Rossov”, said the phone call voice.”No this is Zhivago I’m a scientist working in the Hawkins research lab.Im having your son’s mobile it was lying down inside the Forest”,s aid Zhivago.”Im searching for my son “, said Van der Rossov.”Inthibk your son left the mobile phone knowingly or unknowingly in the forest.he might be in the way to meet you “, s aid Zhivago.”I don't think so because it’s been a day I was trying calling him but he didn’t answer my call.I didn't know what happened to my son”, said Van der Rossov and he started crying.  Knowing that he was crying Zhivago tried to convince Van der Rossov.”Sir please don't cry your son will be back soon.I'm damn sure about it,”said Zhivago. Tara was just looking at Zhivago’s face and the mobile phone but she didn’t tell anything. “May I know where you are’, asked Van der Rossov. We were in the middle of the the pine wood forest down south of Colton”, replied Zhivago.”Oh then you are just quarter mile away from my warehouse.I’m staying inside this warehouse right now.You come here now.It’s safe here”, said Van der Rossov.”Well I’m with my daughter”, said Zhivago.”That’s fine.Come as fast as possible because the situation may not be favorable for us always”, said Van der Rossov.”Sure,sure we will be there at around fifteen to twenty minutes from now.And could you tell me any and land mark near your warehouse”,asked Zhivago.”You could find big tress”, replied Van der Rossov and he cut his phone call.”He don’t even know what to tell as a land mark in this forest.He is saying there will be big tress hahaha”,laughed Zhivago and he suddenly stopped laughing and stared at behind Tara.Tara was confused to see her dad’s reaction like that and she asked,”dad what happened?”. “Tara please dont turn back”, said Zhivago.Tara was speechless because she didn’t know why he said that.”Tara can you run with your injured leg”, asked Zhivago.Tara then slowly she turned her head back and she saw around twelve zombies standing behind her with blood bleeding from their mouth.”Tara run”, shouted Zhivago and he pulled her and started running towards the place where Van der Rossov asked them to come.For each and every step Tara felt pain around 30dels and it was difficult for her to run.Zhivago somehow he made Tara to run faster along with him.Van der Rossov came out of his warehouse and stood near the door with a rife waiting for Tara and Zhivago. Van der Rossov looked at his watch, it was five minutes from he cut the phone call.”Help, help, help. Go inside the warehouse”, Van der Rossov heard a loud noise.He saw a man and a girl running towards his warehouse.”Go inside the warehouse Mr.Van der Rossov it’s Zhivago”, shouted Zhivago.On hearing that Van der Rossov realized that it was Zhivago and his daughter who were running towards his warehouse.He then went inside the warehouse and holded the doors to close them once Zhivago and Tara enter inside the warehouse.He saw around twelve zombies chasing Zhivago and Tara.”Oh no.They are planning to kill me”,Van der Rossov said to himself.Then he kept his rifle in one corner and began to close the door because it was a very big door and it would take him for him to close.Fifteen feet away from the door of warehouse Zhivago pushed Tara forward and she went inside the warehouse and fell down.Then Zhivago jumped forward and he went inside the warehouse and he helped Van der Rossov to close the door.When the zombies were two feet away from the doors of the warehouse, Zhivago and Van der Rossov closed the doors of the warehouse.After closing the door Zhivago took heavy breath as he was running for around five to ten minutes.Van der Rossov took heavy breathe along with Zhivago and Tara just for closing the door because he was an old man.After few seconds Zhivago and Tara started laughing by looking at each other for no reason.They were laughing by lying down on the floor of warehouse.They both looked at the ceiling of the warehouse and were relaxing.The zombies were dashing the doors of the warehouse to come inside but  they couldn’t as it was was so very strong.Van der Rossov finally he relaxed after few minutes. wer and then they marched forward.While moving they were communicating each and every movement in their satellite phones.Team one went in the north direction,team two went in the east direction,team three went in the west direction and team four stayed there and put a camp and they named it as the temporary base for all three teams to communicate about the scenarios.The base had a gatallion g*n fixed at the two corners and they placed the sand bags in front of the camp for protection from counter attacks.They also had grenades for back up.They were all set with protective measures.The three teams carried drones along with them.The drone operator was protected by two soldiers.Team that which was moving towards the north were looking carefully around the streets including each and every corners.Team two were covering the perimeters of the forest.They then flew their drones which had high video quality into the woods for searching for any movements. Team three were moving near the industrial area.The steels and it's waste were lying down and the soldiers couldn't move further as a team due to the hurdles everywhere.All these three teams were backed up by helicopters.They were planned to move forward for one kilometer and then they would place a small camp and then half of the soldiers will move forward.Then those half of the soldiers would set an another camp from 500 metres and then the remaining would scatter around by wearing a suit made up of green leaves to hide themselves from the enemies.All these soldiers would be protected by the armed helicopters until they move on to the respective destinations and proceed their further plan.All the three teams were nearing the respective distance and the team moving towards the west reached their destination first and they reported to their base."Do you copy.This is team three ,we have reached thousand metres of West", informed a soldier.The officer incharge of the base received the message and then he ordered them to stay there until he gives further command."Team one ,reached 1000 metres of North,"Do you copy ",asked a soldier.The base camp received the message and they instructed them the same orders that they informed to the west team.After few minutes the team covering the perimeters of the first region reached their destination and then they communicated to the temporary base and in return they received the order to stay there until they receive the next instructions.Now,the officer incharge instructed all all the three teams to divide into two groups and one set of soldiers should move further in the same direction around five hundred metres carrying their weapons.They all were very good in sticking to their plan.The soldiers then divided into two groups and they started marching forward in the same direction.It was around sunset when they were moving further.The second set of soldiers covered their five hundred metres of distance and they reported it to the main camp.The main camp ordered them to stay focused for each and every movement.It was completely silent and all that they could hear was sound of the wind.The helicopters back ups were no more available as it was the night time and it was completely dark due to lack of electricity.The soldiers couldn't see anything even that which was near them because of the fog.But however using the torch lights they could view around things that were in a fifty metres radius.The second of set soldiers formed a circle and they were observing for movements in a 360° angle.They kept their guns loaded.The satellite maps didn't show any movements other than the soldiers in the surrounding places of the three different soldiers teams. Meanwhile Van der Rossov asked Zhivago", what are we going to do further"."I came in search of people who are hiding around in this surrounding and form a team with them and escape from this place", answered Zhivago."Any other plans do you have", asked Van der Rossov."Yes I'm in need of zombies blood to find the exact medicine to cure them", said Zhivago."Dad I have a doubt.Why our government still didn't take any measures to find the type of virus and start the process of finding the medicine for it",asked Tara. Zhivago didn't have any answer for that."Where will be my son", asked Van der Rossov. Zhivago and Tara doesn't know what to tell him at that time so they asked him to focus on the present scenarios.Then Van der Rossov decided to be patient and he went inside the warehouse rooms to bring some food for  Tara and Zhivago.Now Zhivago and Tara were discussing about their further plan regarding taking the blood sample from the zombies.Since they doesn't have  any weapons it made Zhivago to go confused to execute a plan.                                                                                                             9 After few minutes of thought, thinking about the present scenario, he decided to go out and shoot any of the virus infected person and collect his blood sample in a test tube with the help of Van der Rossov’s rifle.Van der Rossov then brought some bread and butter that he had in one corner of the warehouse and gave it to Zhivago and Tara. “Well listen Mr.Van der Rossov, I have a plan to collect the blood sample from the virus affected person”, said Zhivago. “What’s your plan Mr.Zhivago?” asked Van der Rossov.“Dad needs your rifle. He will go out and shoot the virus infected person and collect the blood sample in a test tube”, answered Tara instead of Zhivago because Zhivago couldn’t answer him as his mouth was fully loaded with bread. After swallowing, Zhivago said that he doesn’t want anyone with him, considering the risk factor.Tara wasn’t convinced as she did not trust the old man Van der Rossov. Van der Rossov didn’t have trust on doctor Zhivago, because he had only one rifle to protect him from the danger and thinking the uncertainity of the return of Zhivago. Van der Rossov didn’t want Zhivago to take his rifle with him to execute his plan. Zhivago was completely worried, stressed and furious since both of them did not understand the scenario and if he didn’t do that then the rate of spreading of the virus might increase. Van der Rossov didn’t speak anything but he conveyed that he was not willing to support doctor Zhivago’s plan by sitting at the corner of the warehouse silently.Tara didn’t want to lose her father since her mind got stuck with the words of Zhivago telling that  his return might be uncertain. After few minutes of silence Van der Rossov agreed for Zhivago’s plan under one condition.“Well, what is your condition Mr. Rossov?”, asked Zhivago. Van der Rossov said that he wanted Zhivago to stay in front of the door of the warehouse and wait for the zombie but he wanted anyone else other than Zhivago, to act as a trap material to take the zombie inside the warehouse.Zhivago was bit convinced but he didn’t want neither Tara nor Mr.Van der Rossov to act as that trap material because Tara’s legs were injured and Van der Rossov was and old man and so Zhivago did not have faith on him. After analyzing all these aspects, Zhivago decided to become the trap material and told Mr.Van der Rossov to shoot the zombie and asked Tara to wait in front of the door of the warehouse and take the dead zombie inside. Mr.Van der Rossov found that to be right though he initially resisted Zhivago from becoming the trap material.They decided to open only one of the two doors so that they could minimize the risk while executing the plan.Zhivago took a toch light with him. And he switched on the torch to check whether it was working under a good condition or not, and it was in a good condition.They opened one of the doors of the warehouse slowly and all he could see everywhere was trees. He then moved much more forward about fifty to sixty feets from the warehouse.Van der Rossov loaded his g*n and he was standing erect like a soldier. Tara was holding the door with both her hands.”Is there anyone? , anyone out there?”, shouted Zhivago in a loud voice .He then switched on and off the torch light inorder to grab the attention of anyone if they were present around the warehouse. After few minutes of dead silence, they heard a loud unpleasant noise from behind the warehouse .Then immediately Zhivago turned back to check what was making that unpleasant noise.He found a big bear standing there, having a vigorous attitude and it was staring at Zhivago furiously.Tara and Van der Rossov weren’t able to see what it was as they were standing facing Zhivago but the bear was standing behind the warehouse. Taken aback, Zhivago murmured to Tara to close the door. “Dad, what is there behind the warehouse?”, asked Tara. “I said, close the door tara”, Zhivago again told in a low voice.The bear was looking into Zhivago’s eyes. “Close the door “, shouted Zhivago when the bear started to run towards him. He then started to run away from where he was standing and the distance between him and the warehouse was keep on increasing since the bear was chasing him. It was now that Tara and Van der Rossov come to know that it was a huge, gigantic bear.”Shoot the bear, shoot the bear”, shouted Tara.Van der Rossov wasn’t able to target the bear as it was running very fast.”Shoot it Van der Rossov“, Zhivago was screaming and running.Van der Rossov fired three bullets and all the three went away from the bear. Zhivago then he decided to make the bear come near Van der Rossov so that he could shoot it on its head. As he was running, he took a turn and managed to run towards the door of the warehouse. Van der Rossov’s rifle had only two bullets left in it. Van der Rossov and Tara saw Zhivago running towards the warehouse and the bear was chasing him. “Hold the fire, hold the fire”, Zhivago shouted apprehensively. “Why is he not letting me fire?”, Van der Rossov exclaimed in confusion. “He said hold your fire, didn’t you hear that?” shouted Tara angrily.“ Sorry my little girl, I couldn’t hear what he said, my ears has become too old”. As this situation was soo tensed, Tara didn’t want to yell at him again. “Go for the head”, shouted Zhivago as he was just 20 metres way from the door. “Fire now!” Zhivago shouted and he jumped forward and fell down. Now, Van der Rossov had a clear shot for the bear and he triggered the rifle and the bullet went like a rocket and pierced the skull of the bear. After getting shot, the bear toppled down to the ground and died. Zhivago checked if he had any injuries, luckily he didn’t have any. Then they all went inside the warehouse and closed the door. Zhivago then took a deep breath as he was running continuously for a long period of time. Van der Rossov kept his rifle aside and said that executing Zhivago’s plan further may not be possible since they were left with only one bullet.They all sat down confused and helpless. Meanwhile, the soldiers were taking care of the places where they were assingned to take guard of.The colonel from the control room, was looking at the infrared maps.After few minutes of communication with the main camp, Bruce Williams found that there were some incoming from the east side , where the team two had set their camp .”Team two , do u copy?”, asked the colonel. “Yes sir”, replied a soldier. ”There is an incoming near your camp, take position”, ordered the colonel. Hearing that, the soldiers loaded their guns and were looking around everywhere. The fog was very high on that day, and it was dark, therefore flying the drones seemed to be bootless. They had only night vision binoculars.                                                                                       10 The fog seemed to be disturbing their vision it posed greatest obstacles. “It is around 15 meters away from you all.Take position” said Colonel from the army control room viewing the infrared satellite map.  The east side, team two soldiers loaded their guns and were looking everywhere.  Something was approaching them they could see it in silhouette. It came near them and they used the light and flashed on it. They saw a huge monster, it was a kind of werewolf with blood filled in it’s mouth. “Fire”, a soldier commanded. The Monster jumped on the soldier and it started attacking everyone and the soldier couldn’t target it and they were firing randomly but the bullets didn’t hit the monster. After few minutes of fight, the monster killed all the soldiers and the east side team two soldiers were no more. The main camp’s army men reached their eastern side in their truck but they could not find the soldiers of team two. The soldiers were missing and they could not find what it was. The roads were splashed with the blood and the guns were down.  The soldiers who moved 500 meters away from the eastern side were also missing and the place was also looking weird with blood everywhere.  The officer in charge didn’t know what to do.    “Colonel, the soldiers are missing, they are all dead, I suppose”, said the officer in charge.  Bruce Williams was hearing that but didn’t reply as his eyes were struck on to the infrared satellite map.  The traces of soldiers were not found. “Fall back”, said the colonel to all the soldiers who were divided into groups. The team which headed towards the north and west turned back to the main camp.  They all were gathered in the main camp and they were talking to each other about the incident. “Pay attention”, officer in charge said. “We don’t have any idea about that reason for the missing of all the soldiers. I just want you all to stay together and search everywhere after the sun rises. I don’t want anyone to go alone and search, rather we shall move forward as a team, understand?” said the officer. “Yes sir”, everyone told together in a chorus. When the officer observed each and every face, he found everyone was feared and he didn’t like that. Some soldiers, for a moment , they even had thoughts of giving up their duty and sit back at their office , but they also knew that the Colonel won’t allow them to do so and most of them seemed to be half minded to continue their duty and indulge in searching of the missing soldiers. After addressing them, the officer asked the soldiers about the snipers and the soldiers looked around. It was still dark and the soldiers were using their torch light to look around for any kind of susceptible movements. Then the officer formed a team of four soldiers and ordered them to go in search of the snipers in their respective building. All they needed to know was about the situation prevailing in the snipers building. The four soldiers left the main army camp with machine guns and hand grenades and torch lights fixed onto the machine guns. Each of them had a communicating device with them and moved forward.  The four soldiers were supposed to go forward for about hundred meters from where they were all standing. While moving the soldiers communicated with each other about their condition in the army. They were reluctant to go but then managed themselves and went .After twelve minutes of slow walk, they reached the building were the sniper two was present. The four then decided to go inside the building and reach the terrace and check whether the sniper two was alive or not. But the sniper three was doing his duty in an another building which stood twenty meters away from that of the sniper two’s.One of the soldier thought of an idea that to divide themselves into two groups and then search in the other  building as well, simultaneously. At first they were not interested but later they put up themselves and built some more confidence when they loaded their machine guns. They said they would make it, and left the place.  Sniper two‘s building was an apartment and so it was highly vulnerable to threats. But the soldiers did not bother about them, but moved forward pointing their machine guns forward. They climbed up to two floors and everything was smooth till there. And so they moved further up. The building of sniper three, being a hotel, added a lot of pressures for the other two soldiers as the floors were big. Since there wasn’t power, they couldn’t use elevators to reach the top of the building. They were moving very slowly as there were many dead bodies lying on the floor. Of course the smell of the bodies were too fetid but still they adjusted with that since they were used to such things from the very beginning of their lives as soldiers while serving for the country. The soldiers who went in search of the sniper two reached the terrace and found him to be missing and thus informed the main army camp. “Is the sniper g*n available over there?”, enquired the officer in charge. “Yes sir, but the soldier is missing, waiting for your order to do further sir”, replied Martin. “Take the g*n with you and leave the building immediately”, ordered the officer. The other two soldiers who went in search of sniper three were communicated by Martin. “Soldiers, update me about the current situation inside the hotel, did you find the sniper three?” “No, we are in the sixth floor and there are two more floors to reach the terrace “, replied the soldier Langer. Martin and his team mate reached the ground floor of the apartment and were waiting for Langer and Austin. Meanwhile Langer and Austin reached the terrace and they searched for sniper three but sniper three was also missing and they couldn’t find the sniper g*n as well. “Sir, Sniper three is missing, no traces of weapons as well”, said Langer to the officer in charge. “Ok come back to the main camp, mission aborted”, said the officer in charge. Langer and Austin turned back and they saw the monster having the head of sniper in its mouth. Austin initiated to fire but the monster jumped on them and killed them before they fired.                                                                                               11  Martin and Luther were standing outside the apartment.Since the terrace of the hotel building was tall; they couldn’t hear the soldiers screaming because of the monster’s attack on them.        “Why are they making it so late, its almost been an hour when they went in”, said Luther to Martin. ”I think they are making a thorough check throughout the building”, replied Martin.  “Well, why don’t we contact them and ask about the condition over there, if they needed us, we could go in and help them”, said Luther. Then Martin took his communicating device and contacted Langer, the signal was very noisy.“ Langer, do you copy, Langer do you copy? “, asked Martin. “Austin and Langer are not visible in our satellite map; I order Martin and Luther to come back to our camp immediately, I repeat Martin and Luther come back to our camp”, said the officer in charge to Martin. “Yes sir, Martin replied.  “What happened to them?” asked Luther to Martin.  “How do I know, I am also with you, officer informed me that they both are missing from the satellite map and he asked us not to stay here anymore”, Martin said to Luther when they were walking back to the camp. Colonel, Bruce Williams while viewing the radar map he saw something nearing Martin and Luther. Seeing that Colonel Bruce Williams contacted the officer in charge and informed him about that and on receiving the information the officer in charge forwarded it to Martin through the communicating device. “Martin, this is the officer in charge, something is nearing you, I want you to return to the camp immediately, Martin Do you copy? “   Martin on hearing that turned back but he couldn’t see anything. “Run “, officer in charge shouted again. On hearing the command Martin and Luther started running towards the camp.  “Load the Gatling guns, machine guns take positions, night vision drones on air, soldiers load your weapons and take position”, the officer in charge instructed to the soldiers.  Since Martin and Luther were only fifteen meters away from the main camp they reached the camp within seven seconds. Both of them took a deep breath and they loaded their guns and took position along with other soldiers.  “What is that? “, asked Luther. “Shut up and stay focused”, ordered the officer in charge. Colonel Bruce Williams was instructing about the unidentified incoming to the officer in charge through the communication device. “Officer, do u copy?” questioned Colonel Bruce Williams. “Yes sir”, replied the officer in charge. “The target is nearing u, it is around twenty meters in front of u”, said the colonel. “Twenty meters? colonel, are u sure?”, asked the officer again and again as he was confused. “ I am damn sure officer, the target is now about fifteen meters away from u, just open fire”, replied the colonel. “What? We couldn’t see anything in front of us, colonel’, replied the officer anxiously. “The target is just ten meters away from you”, informed the colonel. The entire army was confused after receiving this information as they couldn’t see their target approaching them. “Colonel, nothing is visible to us”, replied the agitated officer. Again the colonel warned them that the target was almost in front of you, not even two meters gap between the army and the target. “I order you to open fire!” , ordered the fearful officer. “Open fire!”, ordered the officer in charge to the army men. The soldiers immediately fired the invisible target continuously. The Gatling g*n, the machine guns, everything started to pour the bullets like a rain on to the target. After a minute of reckless, unrelieved shots, they stopped firing. “Colonel, we have fired the target, what happened to that? “, asked the curious officer. After few seconds, “colonel, do u copy?” asked the officer as he did not understand the reason for such a silence. Bruce Williams was staring at the radar map constantly, even after listening to what the officer asked, and was baffled. “The target is still in front of you, officer!” the colonel said it with his voice shivering. “What??” asked the puzzled soldiers? Suddenly the officer’s neck was cut and fell down and the bloods were all around. Seeing that the soldiers became terrified and they were completely bemused .Then, one after the other started dying as their body parts were cut and the remaining soldiers who were standing behind started firing. Martin was still alive and began to shoot randomly without knowing were the target was but after a few minutes he was also killed. Colonel Bruce Williams and the other military officers in the control room were shocked seeing the radar map as it became blurred at that particular place alone. Colonel orders the other army troops to enter that place and he decided to go with them to see what has happened, so that, he could clearly analyze the situation and plan and then act accordingly. Colonel Bruce Williams then informed about the encounter of such a weird situation as it was very alarming and perilous. He explained the way it attacked the soldiers when Colonel sent the soldiers to form a protective perimeter for their city, and for the streets of church hills, and that the soldiers couldn’t even see the enemy nearing them. And that they started to fire randomly but even then, after a few minutes they all were disappeared from the radar map. Another team has arrived there, and informed that they could see only tanks, trucks, weapons and bloods of the soldiers. He also explained the seriousness of the situation and that the enemy shall enter into their city at anytime. President, after listening to this, became speechless since he could not take any decision immediately and he couldn’t believe that an invisible enemy has been encountered the soldiers. On the other hand, the President was worried about the lives of the soldiers. After a few minutes of silence, the President replied to the colonel, “I order all the higher officials of the state and the army Colonels to attend the video conference within an hour, to handle this situation”. “Yes sir”, answered the colonel with a valiant voice. Since all the higher officials had a Z-security force they were safe from the danger unless the invisible thing targets and attacks them. After an hour all the higher officials of the state assembled for the video conference with the president and the Colonel, Bruce Williams. The President explained all that was said to him by the Colonel and on hearing that everyone was baffled as something unimaginable has happened. So the Governor asked the president to increase the security force with more powerful weapons and other advanced technologies. The colonel wanted the scientist to work on finding the medicine for the virus since he doubted that the virus may have some special impacts and effects that leads to the happening of such an unimaginable situations.President after listening to everyone’s opinion, he decided to go to the medical lab and ordered the sodiers to provide a very tight Z-security force to the lab. The President’s order reached the Hawkins lab and the senior director of the lab Adam Glenn passed the order to the other technicians working over there. He then explained about the invisible threat approaching them, and the condition of the army people and about the death of many soldiers. All the technicians inside the lab were very much worried about their family and their safety. Doctor Adam Glenn, the senior director of the Hawkins lab motivated them by explaining their duties and their role for the nation and asked everyone to put efforts to analyze the virus but still Adam Glenn was not very confident because the labs best technician Zhivago was not there .But still he did not show that feelings to the other technicians over there and he asked them to start their work.                                                                                          12 Meanwhile, Doctor Zhivago, Tara and Mr. Van der Rossov were looking at each other’s face because they don’t know what they were supposed to do now. Zhivago was walking over the warehouse thinking about how to handle the situation. All they had was a rifle left with a single bullet and they have to shoot someone affected by the virus and collect their blood sample and start their work to find the medicine for the virus. “I couldn’t plan better than this, we have to take risk to collect the blood sample using this rifle” said Zhivago. “But Doctor we have only a single bullet, I don’t think we can take them off in a single shot” said Van der Rossov. Van der Rossov lacked confidence in him since he was not a trained professional shooter. “Can I try?” asked Tara. “This is not a game Tara, If we fail we die. We don’t have an extra life” said Zhivago. “Dad but I have confidence in me, I can handle things. When I was alone, I used my knowledge as a weapon and escaped from the humanoid robots to save my life.” I’m no more a kid,” said Tara. “Mr. Van der Rossov give that rifle to her”, said Zhivago. Van der Rossov was not interested to do that, he hesitated to give that rifle.Seeing that, Tara took a step forward and she took the rifle. Not even a second, she could keep the rifle on a target because the rifle was too heavy and she required some additional muscle power to aim and shoot. Except poor eyesight and lower cardio vascular capacity Van der Rossov has strong forearms and greater will power than Zhivago and Tara as he was the man who has experienced much more obstacles than Doctor Zhivago and Tara. “We are going to execute the plan again but this time we can’t take any advantage”. Said Zhivago because of the amount of risk is higher at the moment due to lack of bullets. Now Zhivago decided to step out and perform the same act like what he did a couple of hours before. Van der Rossov opened the door of the warehouse. Zhivago went outside of the warehouse and he took the torchlight with him. The bear was lying dead there. Lot of blood leaked from the bear’s head.They took few drops of blood from the bear for experiment purpose because they found the bear was affected by the virus.Then Zhivago crossed the bear and he stood five feet away from the bear and he turned back and looked into the eyes of Tara and took a long deep breath. Van der Rossov adjusted his spectacles and loaded the rifle. Zhivago then he were looking around and started to shout. “Hey, is there anyone around here,” Zhivago shouted and switched off the torchlight and then again he turned on the light. He repeated the action and made the torch light like flickering to grab the attention, if anyone was present around that warehouse. “Is there anyone? Again Zhivago shouted. It was around five in the morning and the sun was about to rise. But it was completely dark as of now. So, they needed the torchlight.After few minutes of Zhivago shouting, there wasn’t any virus affected people they could find so Zhivago decided to return. Zhivago started walking back to the warehouse and when he reached adjacent to the lying dead bear he heard footsteps sound behind him. Because of that he turned back and saw. Van der Rossov pointed his rifle and Tara steadily holded the door of the warehouse. A person was coming out of the bushes and he was still not clearly visible to them as the bushes were hiding him. At last, the person came out of the bushes and he raised his hands seeing Van der Rossov pointing a g*n at him, standing in front of the warehouse. “What should I do now? asked Van der Rossov. Doctor Zhivago raised his right hand above his head and it conveyed Van der Rossov to hold the fire. Zhivago had tears in his eyes on seeing the person who came out of the bush. “Michael where were you all these times?” asked Zhivago. Michael put his hands down and said that he was hiding and running inside the woods for survival. Finally Zhivago found his friend Michael who was working as an FBI agent. After few seconds of staring at each other, Zhivago and Michael ran towards each other and they hugged. “Ah, my dear friend, I found you,” said Zhivago. Michael also couldn’t control his tears and he was hugging Zhivago. Then Zhivago explained everything to Michael that what they were supposed to do now. “Do you need any help? asked Michael. “Yes!” said Zhivago. “Okay, tell me what favour you want me to do?” asked Michael. “Stay inside the warehouse,” said Zhivago with a gentle smile. Michael then ran towards the warehouse, he didn’t take a look at Zhivago until he reached the warehouse. Now all three were looking at Zhivago and they watched for any movement around there for any virus infected people. “Is there anyone?” again Zhivago shouted looking around everywhere. “Dad, come inside we will try again some other time”, said Tara. “Are you Zhivago’s daughter?” questioned Michael. “Yes”, answered Tara. “Oh my god, where were you all these days?” asked Michael. “Shut up, all the personal details can be asked later, you i***t,” Van der Rossov interrupted their conversation and said this. Then Michael and Tara stopped their conversation and were looking at Zhivago. Zhivago then gave up his plan and then he turned back and walked towards the warehouse. Van der Rossov relaxed his arms and kept the rifle aside. Zhivago was admiring the nature and he took a gentle look everywhere around the warehouse. When he almost reached the warehouse, he casually saw on the top of the warehouse and stopped forwarding and he was staring at the top. “What are you looking at Doctor”, asked Van der Rossov. The doctor didn’t reply and he was still staring at the warehouse. “Everyone go inside,” Zhivago ordered them. All were confused because Zhivago was keeping on staring at the top of the warehouse. “Van der Rossov, load your rifle a zombie is standing there and staring at me,” said Zhivago. Tara almost had a heart attack and took deep breaths after hearing Zhivago’s words. The zombie jumped from the top of the warehouse on Zhivago. Zhivago holded it’s face with his hands and he asked Van der Rossov to shoot. “Shoot it on the head, Shoot it on the head,” Zhivago screamed again and again. But, Van der Rossov was completely paused after looking at the zombie. Michael and Tara were looking at Van der Rossov as he was not even aiming at the zombie. “Shoot, shoot, shoot the zombie at its head you i***t,” yelled Zhivago. Van der Rossov was still looking at the zombie. Seeing the zombie trying to bite Zhivago at his neck Michael voluntarily pulled the rifle from Van ser Rossov and he aimed at the zombie’s head. During this time Van der Rossov said “No, no, no don’t do that”. Without even paying attention to Van der Rossov’ s words, Michael clearly shot at the head of the zombie and the zombie was dead. The zombie’s blood splashed at Zhivago’s face as he was underneath the zombie. Immediately after zombie’s death, Zhivago ran near the tap that was placed near the warehouse, he washed his face and he asked Michael to help him to take the dead zombie inside the warehouse.                                                                                                   13 Zhivago was looking at Van der Rossov very furiously while taking the zombie inside the warehouse as he was delaying to shoot the zombie that lead to the risk of Zhivago’s life. Van der Rossov was having a sad face and he was looking at the zombie. After Michael and Zhivago pulled the zombie inside, Tara closed the door of the warehouse very quickly and locked them. “Why did you take so much time to pull the trigger you old man” Zhivago asked furiously. Tara has never seen her father like that before but she too had a high temper on Van der Rossov for not reacting to the situation quickly. “Please open your mouth old man” said Michael. Van der Rossov on seeing the zombie he started crying by sitting down on the floors of warehouse. “Why are you crying? asked Zhivago. Van der Rossov had lot of tears in his eyes now. Zhivago, Michael and Tara didn’t have any clue about the reason behind Van der Rossov’s tears. They were asking one by one for several minutes. Van der Rossov wiped his tears with his hands and he crawled with both his hands and legs and moved towards the dead zombie to touch it. Seeing that, Zhivago pulled Van der Rossov back. “Don’t you have any sense, old man,” shouted Zhivago. Van der Rossov with tears in his eyes he said “It’s my son Jordan, it’s my son Jordan. Zhivago, Tara and Michael all were silent and they heard only Van der Rossov’s crying. Hearing that Tara also started crying and she sat near one corner and Zhivago was speechless and Michael was looking pity at the old man. Mr. Van der Rossov. Zhivago asked Van der Rossov to consider the incident for the goodness of our country. They also explained that Jordan was no more a normal human being and they didn’t want Van der Rossov’s feelings to get confused with the reality. Now they decided to stick to the plan. Michael was asked to bring a table and Zhivago asked Tara to get some water for Van der Rossov.The old man was sitting down and looking at the floor as he was not interested to look at the faces of Tara, Zhivago and Michael. Zhivago took a syringe from his bag and then he injected it into the body of Jordan and he took the required amount of blood and kept in in a closed type test tube. Tara gave water to Van der Rossov but Van der Rossov was not willing to drink even though he was thirsty. Zhivago then asked Tara to come and help him. “Dad, what are we going to do now”, asked Tara. “Daughter, we are going back to our basement now and use both the blood samples and start our research work,” said Zhivago. “Wait, wait, wait it is not safe to move from here. Look what has happened. We can’t take risks anymore”, yelled Michael looking at Zhivago and Tara. “I’m not coming with you people Van der Rossov said in a low voice. “Oh come on man, I can understand your feelings but I don’t want you to confuse it with the reality. Even if we didn’t shoot your son Jordan he would have killed me, Michael, Tara and finally he would have killed you by biting your throat and sucked your blood  dear old man ”, said Zhivago to Van der Rossov. But Van der Rossov was not convinced because whatsoever may be the reason it was still his son Jordan. So his mindset didn’t allow the words to enter inside him. Zhivago, Michael and Tara were done with their works with Jordan’s body. They rolled Jordan’s body inside a sheet and placed him near the corner of the warehouse far from the doors of the ware house. The blood samples were inside the bag of Zhivago and they planned to reach Zhivago’s basement research lab through some other way because the route in which they came to Van der Rossov’s warehouse was fully flooded with doubts of serious threats. They planned to go through some other route to avoid the risk of being attacked by the zombies. They three were about to leave the warehouse but Van der Rossov was still sitting there. “Dear old man please come with us we don’t want to leave you here like this,” said Tara. “My dear, what am I going to do hereafter by saving my life in this world after losing my son? There is no purpose for me to live in this world. Let me sit here and die my dear little girl” said Van der Rossov calmly. Tara was again trying to convince Van der Rossov since she was feeling very guilty for firing his son. “Why you speak like this”, asked Tara. Van der Rossov didn’t reply anything to her. “We don’t have time old man.We don’t have more time. You have to understand the situation prevailing” said Doctor Zhivago. But old man’s heart was broken so even if he wants to convey his emotions something stopped him from conveying. “Van der Rossov grandpa considers me as your granddaughter. Let me be your granddaughter” said Tara. Those words began to heal the inner wounds of Van der Rossov. After few minutes of silence Van der Rossov stood up and kept his hands on the shoulders of Tara and he began to move. Michael and Zhivago finally they started relaxing at the moment. Van der Rossov didn’t even turn back to look at Jordan because he might change his mind after seeing his son Jordan’s dead body. So, he didn’t want that to happen. Michael and Zhivago closed the doors of the warehouse and started to walk. Michael looked at the dead bear and it began to produce a bad smell. All four started walking towards the basement of Zhivago’s lab. “Dad, what is your mindset now” asked Tara. “Why are you asking my dear, all that I have in my mind is to reach our destination without any trouble? We lack weapons Tara” replied Zhivago. “I don’t think so there will be trouble coming across our way,” said Michael. “Zhivago, may I know why you told we lack weapons” asked Van der Rossov. “Since we don’t have any weapons to attack, I said that Van der Rossov” said Zhivago.” Ah you forgot about what you said about Tara and what I came to know about her during our quarantine inside the warehouse” said Van der Rossov. “What is that?. I couldn’t remember about what you are speaking about”, replied Doctor Zhivago. “We were discussing that Tara used her knowledge as weapon to escape from the humanoid robots and she survived all alone till you found her in the woods”, said Van der Rossov sarcastically. Hearing this Tara felt proud about herself and she turned back and gave a look at her father. Zhivago also smiled back at her. Michael felt happy for Van der Rossov as he was speaking to everyone normally and he also believed that over the time surely Van der Rossov will be back to his normal behaviour. Zhivago asked everyone not to speak loudly since they might not know what problem they will be facing in the woods. They walked silently after hearing Zhivago’s advice and started admiring the nature.                                                                                            14 In that early morning climate, they enjoyed the chillness and breezy air in the woods. They were half a mile away from the basement research lab and Zhivago decided to walk much faster so that he could take a lot of time to relax after reaching his basement lab and later change his mindset on the work. While walking Michael recalled Van der Rossov’ s words about praising Tara for using her knowledge as her weapon and survived from those two humanoid robots. “Did you say humanoid robots” asked Michael to Van der Rossov. “Yes Mr. FBI” replied Van der Rossov. Since Tara was the one who saw those robots Michael started questioning her. “How were they looking?” asked Michael. “About whom are you asking?” Tara replied.” I mean those humanoid robots” said Michael. “They were looking like terminators with huge Bren machine guns fixed to their arms” replied Tara. “I think it’s Gary Kristen” said Michael. “Even I thought it might be him” replied Zhivago. “May I know who you are speaking about” asked Van der Rossov. “It’s our friend Van der Rossov. He is a person who invents humanoid robots He studied robotics and we think it might be him.Without knowing that Tara is my daughter, he might use those humanoid robots to protect himself from danger because he may thought Tara as a zombie ” said Zhivago. While speaking all of this they were just a quarter mile away from Zhivago’s basement research lab and they weren’t facing any obstacles till that. Zhivago suddenly heard a noise, something strange that he never heard before like that. “Did you hear something? ,Can you hear any unusual sound”  Zhivago asked. “I couldn’t hear anything” said Van der Rossov. “You can’t hear anything that is  fifteen feet away from you as far as I know” said Tara to Van der Rossov. “Did you really mean it?”, questioned Van der Rossov. “Be Quiet”, replied Michael to both Tara and Van der Rossov. Few drops of blood fell on Van der Rossov’s shirt from the top and they looked up from where the blood was. The monster was standing in the tree and it was looking at them. The monster targeted them and was ready to hunt them if they moved an inch. Everyone’s heartbeat was high and they were remained silent with fear and were staring at the monster which had human bloods in its mouth. After a second, Tara started screaming at her high pitch voice and she started running, leaving Van der Rossov to stand alone. Michael ran in one direction while Zhivago took a stick in his hand and was ready to fight the monster with that stick. The monster jumped from the tree and landed down. Due to the vibration on the ground produced by the monster’s jump the old man fell down near the doctor hoping that Zhivago will save him from that unidentified creature. Zhivago couldn’t identify what kind of creature it was.It was like a big werewolf standing like a kangaroo with giraffe’s height and it was so very strong. Zhivago realized that he can’t fight that with a stick and Van der Rossov was wondering where is the girl who said she used her knowledge as a weapon to fight her odds. Both Tara and Michael were not even in that circle where the monster creature trapped Zhivago and Van der Rossov from escaping. Zhivago’s mind was keep on telling him that don’t be afraid and get killed by the monster. Rather put up one hell of a fight and die. Zhivago raised the stick to attack the monster. The monster raised its hand to smash Zhivago with it’s long sharp nails and there was the old man Van der Rossov who closed his eyes when  the monster raised it’s hands. The moment where the monster’s huge hand with long nails reached near Zhivago’s head, from somewhere a hollow point bullet was fired and it hit on the monster’s hand and that made Zhivago to save his life from being killed by the monster but still Zhivago couldn’t control his force so he hit the monster with the stick and stick got broken. It made the monster much more furious since it was very painful for the monster after fired by the bullet. Zhivago was surprised to know that the monster was shot. Again a how point bullet was shot on the chest of the monster. It was the humanoid robot standing there with the Bren machine g*n and there were two such robots. The monster became much more furious and decided to tear those humanoid robots. The moment it turned towards the humanoid robots the robots started firing continuously with their Bren machine guns. The bullet was firing like a rain and it pierced into the body of the monster but it  stood still as it was very powerful. After 30 seconds of continuous firing the monster couldn’t stand after taking a lot of bullets in its body but it was still capable of fighting the robots. Even in this situation the old man Van der Rossov was lying down closing his eyes and imagined that Zhivago turned into a super hero and started to fight against the monster. Zhivago was closing his ears as the sound of the Bren machine guns was very high and the monster roaring in pain. After few seconds the monster turned invisible to the n***d eyes of Zhivago and was invisible to the vision of the humanoid robots visions as well. Zhivago was surprised to see such thing happening in front of him as it was completely unimaginable. Then the invisible monster jumped from where it was and reached one of the humanoid robot and completely crushed it with its huge hands and strong long nails.Since it was invisible to the humanoid robots the remaining robots couldn’t find where the monster actually was and the robots were looking at Zhivago and Van der Rossov. The monster was standing behind another robot and raised its hands to pierce the robot but at that time it was thundering and the climatic condition changed and it started raining. When the rain drops fell on the monster, It lost its invisibility and turned visible to the humanoid robots and Zhivago. The humanoid robots now started firing on the monster. The monster couldn’t withstand the bullets piercing it’s body and it felt much more pain than the bullet shots when the rain drops fell on the monster’s body. Zhivago found that the monster can’t withstand the rain drops as it was sensitive to the rain and it lost it’s invisibility characteristics when it was raining. After all this incidents happened the old man Van der Rossov opened his eyes and looked for the monster and it wasn’t there.                                                                                                     15 Van der Rossov turned back and he saw Zhivago was standing confused.He then said, “You are brilliant Zhivago, using the stick you made the monster run away from us, haha”. Zhivago was not interested to laugh. Then Van der Rossov turned left and he saw the humanoid robots standing with the Bren machine g*n. “Another monster Zhivago”, said Van der Rossov and he closed his eyes again.” Mr. Van der Rossov, Mr. Van der Rossov” Zhivago called him twice. Vander Rossov opened his eyes. “The humanoid robots were the ones who saved us from the monster and it wasn’t me who made the monster run away using the stick. We have to thank the rain as well for saving us” said Zhivago. “What happened to the stick? From where did this robot came?” questioned Van der Rossov. “I will answer all your questions only when we find my daughter and Michael” replied Doctor Zhivago. Then the humanoid robots came towards Doctor Zhivago and it scanned Zhivago from top to bottom, and it did the same with the old man Van der Rossov. But Zhivago didn’t pay attention to the robot and he looked around everywhere and shouted, “Tara, Michael where are you? We are safe here, return back”, shouted Zhivago. On hearing that Tara and Michael who were hiding at different places came back running towards the place where Zhivago, Van der Rossov and the humanoid robots were standing. “Dad where is the monster?” asked Tara. “I think this robot is the invention of our friend Gary Kristen” said Michael. Both spoke simultaneously to Zhivago. But Zhivago felt the question asked by his daughter was seemed to be his priority.So he answered Tara’s question first. “This robot and the rain saved us from the monster” answered Zhivago. “Is that Gary Kristen’s invention”, again Michael asked. “How do I know i***t” replied Zhivago. Then they all heard some footsteps sounds behind the robots since there was no more rainfall. They all turned towards that direction of the footsteps sound. It was Gary Kristen who was friend of Zhivago and Michael came there with a Bren machine g*n and surprised them. “Hey mates”, said Gary Kristen. “Yes it’s true. My instincts are true” said Michael and he ran and hugged Gary Kristen. “Thank you man”, said Van der Rossov even though Gary Kristen was not listening to him. Then Gary Kristen went near Zhivago and he hugged him as well and gave a lovable kiss on the cheeks for Tara and gave her a side hug. Then he asked “Who is this?” looking at Van der Rossov. “He is our teammate who helped us during our tough situations.  We are very much thankful to him his name is Van der Rossov”sai Zhivago. “I’m Gary Kristen” he introduced himself to the old man. “Yeah, I know your name, these two were speaking about you whenever they spoke about this humanoid robot” replied Van der Rossov. “That’s nice” replied Gary Kristen. “Did you attack me using your robots?” questioned Tara. “Yes, it was me who sent the robots to attack you. I thought you might be the person who is affected by the virus” answered Gary Kristen. “Then how come you know now that I’m your friend’s daughter” again Tara questioned Gary Kristen. “Well I was hearing your father through this humanoid robot. He said you are his daughter to our beloved Van der Rossov when you ran away from here and was hiding somewhere under the bushes”, replied Gary Kristen. “Well that’s fine” said Tara. Then Van der Rossov was staring at Tara. On seeing him Tara questioned, “Why are you looking at me like this?”. “I just want to know, is this the way how you use your knowledge as a weapon and save us from the danger”, asked Van der Rossov and everyone started laughing. Michael didn’t laugh as he was also the one who ran away though being an FBI agent. “Okay, Everyone stop laughing, I’m not a superhero said Tara and she gave a furious look on each and everyone. Then they changed their topic to Zhivago’s plan. “Well my friend, Zhivago what are we going to do next” asked Gary Kristen. “We are going to our basement research lab quarter mile away from here”, replied Zhivago. “Okay we will move on” said Gary Kristen. Now all the four began to walk to the basement along with the humanoid robots. “From where did you get that Bren machine g*n for your robots?”, questioned Michael to Gary Kristen while they were walking. “I invent things and I know Bren machine guns are made up of what materials and on what mechanics it works I have lot of such type of guns but only two more robots are left with me. One is with us and the other one is protecting my basement lab that which is present two miles away from our Zhivago’s basement research lab, answered Gary Kristen. “Oh god how many basements do you both have! All that I have is a basement garage”, said Michael.  Everyone just smiled hearing Michael’s words. “I think we need much more protection Gary Kristen” said Zhivago since Zhivago felt that the monster might return anytime and they cannot be dependent on the rain to rescue them. After few minutes of walk, they reached Zhivago’s basement lab. Zhivago cleared the bushes from the door of the basement and he made everyone to go down and he entered last and closed the door using his finger print. Now they all sat in the main room of the basement research lab and were looking at each other. Gary Kristen made his humanoid robot to stay in one corner and he was roaming inside the lab taking a look at the things that were present there. Gary Kristen was asking his doubts about the lab to Zhivago while Zhivago was arranging the necessary things for testing the blood sample that he had collected from Jordan. Zhivago then made a clear decision that the research lab needs much more protection. So, he called Gary Kristen to bring in much more weapons and the other robot which is taking care of Gary’s lab. “Sure, I will bring in the Bren machine guns for all of us and train Tara and Van der Rossov to handle those heavy guns for the greater advantage of security building” said Gary Kristen. Gary Kristen then thought of leaving the lab along with Michael as he is in need of some help to carry those guns and bullets. Michael was also ready to go with Kristen. “You should carry around 15-20 kgs when we return to the basement research lab, can you do that?” asked Gary Kristen to Michael. “Well I can’t do that, I think we need a small vehicle” said Michael, so it seems to be a tough situation for them to bring in the weapons as the Bren machine guns weigh heavier and they cannot lift more than one at a time. Zhivago was also worried by that so they discussed whether Gary Kristen could take Tara and Van der Rossov along with them but it was not convincing because Van der Rossov is an old man, So he cannot lift weights heavier and Tara had stiches in her legs so lifting heavy weights may damage the stiches in her legs and will be another burden for them. “What shall we do now?” asked Gary Kristen to Zhivago. “Well I think you both should do the work double the time. Only then we can complete the work” said Zhivago to Michael and Gary Kristen. “so your idea is me and Michael will be going to the basement lab of mine and we carry a Bren machine g*n and come here and give that to Tara and Van der Rossov, then again we have to we have to go back to the lab and bring the other set of Bren machine guns with the humanoid robot backing up. Is that what you are saying” asked Gary Kristen to Zhivago and Zhivago said “yes”. Michael and Gary Kristen took a long deep breath and they looked at each other’s face and they looked at Zhivago and asked for drinks and food stuff as they need energy to do the task. Zhivago gave some energy drinks and a loaf of bread to Michael and Gary Kristen and he went along with Michael and Gary Kristen and the humanoid robot till the door of the basement since Zhivago must press his thumb finger in the fingerprint scanning device only then the door of the basement will open. The door opened and all the three of them went outside and the door closed. Tara and Van der Rossov were eating the bread. “Tara I need you to come here” called Zhivago when he was standing near the fingerprint scanning device. “Yes dad Tara said after reaching near Zhivago. “I am going to start my research work and I will be completely focused on that. So that I won’t be able to open the door when Michael and Gary Kristen return to our basement. So, I’m going to change the access to your fingerprint and you should take care of that when Michael and Gary Kristen returns. “Sure dad, I will take care of this” said Tara. Zhivago then worked on that fingerprint scanning device and he changed the set up as per his plan. “Now I’m going to start my work. You take care of this my dear” said Zhivago and he went to start his research work. Zhivago took the blood sample of Jordan and placed it under the microscope wearing a respiratory mask. Van der Rossov was not willing to see that so he turned towards Tara and was looking at her since the blood was his son’s. Tara realised that Van der Rossov is still worried about that but still she felt what happened was the right thing and worrying about the past doesn’t bring any changes. So she spoke to herself in her mind that live the moment and no need to worry about the unpredictable commencing situations.                                                                                                  16 Meanwhile Michael and Gary Kristen were on the way to Gary Kristen’s basement. “Do you think can we make it” asked Michael. I’m staying positive wherever I go and that’s my character. Do you have any doubts in my words” asked Gary Kristen. “I believe in you but we have to do the task twice only then it means we have completed the task that’s worrying me a lot” said Michael. Gary Kristen then stopped walking and looked into the Michael’s eyes and he asked “Do you trust me?” “Yes, I do”. “Then no more doubtful questions when you are with me” said Gary Kristen and they started walking. The humanoid robot that which walks along with the Michael and Gary Kristen is programmed to look everywhere and to find whether there was any movement around them. The robot has the ability to scan around 10 meters of radius circle so they are safe form danger around 10 meters of distance. After walking for few minutes, they were around 50 meters away from Gary Kristen’s basement. While walking they heard some voice and loaded their g*n, the robot also gave a warning signal Gary Kristen pointed his g*n forward and he was waiting for it that which was making the noise in the bushes. Gary Kristen began to count “One, Two Three”, then he opened the lock of the g*n at that time a dog came out of the bush seeing that Gary Kristen didn’t fire and Michael was relaxed seeing that. The display of humanoid robot didn’t project the dog as danger so it didn’t pull off the trigger. The dog came running near Gary Kristen shaking its tail asking for food. Gary Kristen bent down to look at dog’s face. “Be careful, Gary Kristen the dog might be affected by the virus” said Michael on seeing Gary Kristen being close to the dog. “I know that” replied Gary Kristen. Michael was looking around everywhere since Gary Kristen was paying attention only to the dog. I think the owner of this dog might not be alive” said Gary Kristen. “Let us focus on our plan and stick to it, S o that we could save time and don’t get involved into unnecessary consequences” said Michael. “Okay Fine said Gary Kristen. Then Gary Kristen gave a piece of bread to the dog. “What are you doing Gary Kristen, we ourselves are running short of food supplies and you give this piece of bread to the dog. Aren’t you calculative?” asked Michael. “Could you please shut up” angrily replied Gary Kristen. Gary Kristen then took the dog along with him. He then started to speak to the humanoid robot since Gary Kristen didn’t pay attention to the threatening environment rather he was focused on pouring love and affection to the dog. “See your boss is going to push us into some dangerous situation and I think you alone will survive” said Michael to the humanoid robot. Gary Kristen even though he was focusing at the dog his ears were listening to the words of Michael. So, after hearing that Gary Kristen said “Don’t worry my friend, nothing will happen to you ahead of me. I have a huge responsibility to take care of these people who are around me because I consider you people as my family because I don’t have family”, saidGary Kristen in a dull voice.On hearing that Michael felt guilty about sarcastically yelling at him.From that moment he stopped doubting Gary Kristen and decided to follow as per his words.Even though Michael worked as an FBI agent for the country he didn’t have any ego in following his friend Gary Kristen’s orders.After few minutes they reached the basement of Gary Kristen.Gary Kristen then kept his finger print,the door didn’t open.Again he kept his finger on the finger print scanning device the door didn’t open.”What happened?” asked Michael.”I don’t know might be some technical error”, said Gary Kristen and he angrily punched on the finger print scanning device and after that the door opened.The other humanoid robot that which was inside the basement pointed its Bren machine g*n towards the door.”Hey,hey,it’s me”, said Gary Kristen to the robot.After scanning from top to bottom,the robot showed green signal but it pointed it’s g*n at the little dog.”No,no,no......”, said Gary Kristen and he immediately changed the programming of that humanoid robot to avoid unnecessary consequences.Then Gary Kristen went inside a room and he brought a Bren machine g*n and gave the bullets as well to Michael and asked him to load.Then he decided to leave the place along with the other humanoid robot so that they would be additionally stronger now.The door didn’t close since there was some technical issues going around the basement.The lights were flickering due to lack of voltage.Now,they all came out and Gary Kristen tried to close the basement’s door but the door wasn’t closing.Gary Kristen was fed up with that so he decided to leave the basement as such considering the fact that they have to return again to take the other Bren machine guns.So they were convinced to leave the door basement door not closed.They walked for around two to three minutes covering around a distance of only 50 metres they heard some unusual noise.”Wait”, said Gary Kristen.”What”, asked Michael “Did you hear something”, asked Gary Kristen. “I don’t hear any sound”,replied Michael.The dog standing near Gary Kristen started barking looking at the bushes and trees that were near the bushes.The dog was afraid looking at the bushes and it went and hide behind the legs of Gary Kristen.Both the humanoid robots showed danger signal and it raised its Bren machine guns.Seeing that Gary Kristen analysed that the danger is around 10 metres radius.Seeing all of them Michael loaded his Bren machine g*n and Gary Kristen also loaded his Bren machine gun.Something slowly came out of the bushes.”Oh my god”, said Gary Kristen as there were more than 50 zombies standing opposite to them having blood in their mouth.Seeing those zombies the dog ran away and the two humanoid robots targeted the zombies.”Fire”, shouted Gary Kristen.After hearing the command,the two humanoid robots started firing the zombies along with Gary Kristen and Michael.The bullets were raining and it hit on the zombies and they were dying one after the other.Two to three zombies came running towards Michael and Michael fired at them.But,he couldn’t fix his target accurately on them because he wasn’t exposed to Bren machine guns.While firing something went wrong in the Bren machine g*n handled by Michael.The g*n wasn’t firing.”Gary, Gary”, shouted Michael.”What happened”,without looking at Michael Gary Kristen replied as he was firing at the zombies that was trying to attack and kill Gary Kristen.Michael then saw a couple of zombies running towards him,since the g*n wasn’t firing he put that down and ran towards the basement but he forgot that he can’t close the doors of Gary Kristen’s basement as it was under some technical issues.Gary Kristen,he then took a look at Michael running towards the basement without any g*n,so he thought of going there and killing those couple of zombies that were chasing Michael.Zombies were chasing Michael and Gary Kristen was running behind the chasing Zombies.At few metres before basement,Michael hit his leg in one wood and fell down.He couldn’t run further since the pain was much more higher than the pain that he faced during the training period of Federal Bureau of Investigation.The two zombies were nearing Michael and Gary Kristen on seeing that he stopped running,took position and targeted those zombies and pulled the trigger and fixed them at the head.Michael closed jis eyes seeing the zombie nearing him but luckily he was escaped because of Gary Kristen’s firing.Then Gary Kristen went near Michael and he checked him whether he got any wound but Michael was feeling pain in his right leg that which got hit in the wood.Gary Kristen planned to take off Michael’s pant and look at the wound but the moment he touched Michael’s pant he could see many zombies surrounded them at a distance of 10-15 metres.Michael was down so Gary Kristen should fight those zombies all alone as the two humanoid robots were firing at the zombies that were nearing them.Gary Kristen stood up and took his g*n pointing towards the zombies and triggered the g*n unfortunately there were no bullets.Due to fear,he was keep on triggering the g*n and there were no bullets.The zombies were nearing them,Gary Kristen and Michael thought that they were no more.Michael since he was lying down most of his view were vertical towards the sky.So when he looked here and there he found a honeycomb with lots of honey bees.”Gary, look up”, said Michael.Gary Kristen then he looked up at the branches of the trees.”Throw your g*n at the honey comb”, said Michael.But,since the g*n that was in the hand of Gary Kristen was too heavy he can’t throw that till the honeycomb as it was present higher at the tree.So he dropped his g*n and then he took a stone and threw at honey comb. Immediately after throwing the stone Gary Kristen pulled Michael along with him and fell down into the basement. The honey bees were scattered and started biting the zombies.                                                                                                                   17 The zombies couldn’t withstand the pain. Gary Kristen was wearing a fire service man’s suit that he had in the basement and he took a Bren machine guns loaded with bullets. He came out of the basement and started to fire at the zombies. The honey bees couldn’t sting Gary as he was wearing a protective hard suit with a helmet. Now all the zombies that came there was lying dead and both the humanoid robots came near Gary Kristen and Micheal was wounded in his right leg and he was in the basement, lying down in the floor with lots of pain as he dashed his leg with the woods with a huge force when he was running to escape from the zombies that were chasing him. Gary Kristen then went down and removed his suit and looked at the legs of Micheal. He found a severe wound in his right leg and went inside the room and brought a first aid kit. He did the first aid to Micheal with his known knowledge. Any how Micheal felt better now. “What shall we do now?”, asked Micheal. “I think it would be better to stick to our plan” , said Gary Kristen. “But do you think that we can reach Zhivago’s basement research lab without ant obstacles. I don’t think we can reach there without any problem”, said Micheal. “Well you can’t do anything sitting here; by the way, what happened to your g*n,” asked Gary Kristen.  “Well, I am not the person who invented that machine”, said Micheal.  “Now we have to leave the place, we don’t know how many zombies hereafter”, said Gary Kristen.  Then Micheal stood up and they all came out of the basement looking everywhere of the surroundings.  Gary Kristen then took the g*n dropped by Micheal on the ground which was not firing when the zombies ran towards Micheal.  Gary Kristen checked the reason for not firing.  He found that the inner parts of the g*n got struck so that it won’t be useful anymore.  He then took more bullets from the basement and decided to leave the place.  “What about the other Bren machine g*n”, asked Micheal?  “I have to come back for that “, replied Gary Kristen.  “Don’t come alone”, said Micheal.  “I don’t want anyone to come along with me for taking risk, did you understand that”, angrily replied Gary Kristen.  Then Micheal didn’t have any words to speak with Gary Kristen so that he followed the instructions given by him.  Only one g*n was left there at Gary Kristen‘s basement.  Gary Kristen, Micheal and the two humanoid robots started moving Zhivago’s basement research lab. It was around 1000 metres from there.  At Zhivago’s basement Research lab, Zhivago was zooming the blood sample under the Microscope and he found that the virus makes the cells structures of the human body to get changed, like a kind of mutation.  But the greatest advantage is that the mutation in the human body doesn’t long for more than 5 to 7 minutes.  Now, all that he wants to know about is, how this virus reacts with animal’s blood cells and whether it creates any mutation.  If yes, then how long will it remain?  These were the doubts that Zhivago had when he found out the mutation happening in Jordan’s blood.  Zhivago was much more curious to know about the reason that makes the human beings die and what kind of medicines should be found to eradicate this virus.  “Tara, I have found something about the virus”, said Zhivago.  “What is it dad? “, asked Tara.  The virus when it is in the human’s blood it changes the cells structure and leads to a kind of mutation for around 5 to 7 minutes.  It is a complicated virus it requires much more than the actual time we have to produce medicine for it “, said Zhivago.   “Dad, what do you mean by a kind of mutation?” asked Tara.  “A kind of mutation means, I found out the characteristics of the cells get changed, altering the cell structure.  That’s why I said it’s a kind of mutation”, explained Zhivago.   “Dad, then what is the difference between mutation and the explanation that you gave now” asked Tara.  “Well, well, well … it is … yes it is mutation”, said Zhivago and Tara laughed at him.  “My dear, this is not the right time to correct me for the mistakes that I do in these definitions”, said Zhivago.  The old man Van der Rossov was laughing by looking at the way both father and daughter conversing.  It reminded him the way he and Jordan used to speak but all that he has now is the memory of his son and test tube full of Jordan’s blood. It made him to worry for that moment but later Mr. Rossov changed his mind set of his son Jordan and consoled him as he is acting as the source to find the medicine for the virus. “Dad, I have a doubt”, said Tara.  “What it is?” asked Zhivago.  So I think the virus has affected a wolf or a black panther that resulted in the mutation and its characters and features were altered and made it look like a monster which came to kill us a few hours ago. It’s my instinct right? , asked Tara.  Zhivago was silent and he was thinking about the monster.   After a few minutes of silence and deep thinking, Zhivago answered Tara, “Yes, I think so but we can make it clear by testing the virus in animal’s blood and see the changes that happen using our microscope.  “Yes dad, then let us start doing that now”, replied Tara. “But is the blood of animal available right now? questioned Zhivago.  Tara didn’t have any answer for that.  Then they heard the knocking sound of the door.  Every one looked at the door. Tara was not sure that it was Micheal and Gary Kristen.  She had doubts that if it might be a Zombie.  Tara went near the door and asked “Who is there?”  They didn’t answer but were repeatedly knocking at the door and Tara got angry for not getting any reply from the person who was knocking.  So she asked the same question with lot of anger.  Zhivago standing behind Tara and said” My dear daughter they can’t hear you through this door”.  Van der Rossov started laughing at Tara.  “Don’t laugh, you old man” shouted Tara.  She then took an iron material in her hand to hit the person who was knocking the door if he is a zombie.   She was accompanied by an old man Van der Rossov.  He was having cooking utensils in his hands. Tara, when she kept her finger print on the door the knocks on the door increased and she was little bit afraid of the way the door was knocked.  The door opened and they saw it was Micheal, Gary Kristen and Two humanoid robots staring at them in a very unusual way for seeing them with Utensils.  “Why are you having those things in your hands?” asked Micheal.  “To hit if it was a zombie or a stranger”, replied Tara.  “Then look at our hands you little girl”, said Micheal.  She looked at their hands it was Bren machine g*n.  “Not so funny”, Tara said.  Then they moved inside and Tara closed the door of the Research lab.  “Micheal got wound in his right leg”, said Gary Kristen to every one over there.  “What happened?” asked Zhivago.  “Where it happens?” asked the old man Vander Rossov.  “Is he alright? “questioned Tara.  Well well well, you can ask all your questions to our bellowed and bold man Micheal. I don’t have time to answer your entire question.  I have to go back to my basement once again, hope you all remember our plan”.  “Still a Bren machine g*n is left in my basement”, said Gary Kristen.”                                                                                                       18 Are you going alone”, asked Van der Rossov. I don’t want anyone to be involved with me when I’m taking risks” answered Gary Kristen.Michael was relaxing sitting in a chair.Tara was looking at everyone when they are conversing with each other.Gary Kristen decided to leave the two humanoid robots in Zhivago’s basement research lab because Michael got wound in his leg and Gary Kristen lost faith in him as he was suffering to stand for even a minute.Zhivago was also involved in his research works so he cannot be involved in the fight.Then Gary Kristen analysed how much capable are Tara and Van der Rossov from the incident of fighting with the monster.Due to all this difficulties he thought,leaving the two humanoid robots in this research lab will be much more safer than accompanying him.Gary Kristen had a handy pistol.He thought it will be enough for him to face the obstacles coming by his way,but left with no clue what will he do if the gigantic monster comes.”I’m leaving with my pistol”, said Gary Kristen.All were silent because they didn’t have anything better option than this so they decided to go by the way Gary Kristen decides.Gary Kristen moved towards the door,Tara seeing that she ran before him and kept her finger print in the device and then the door opened.Gary Kristen looked everywhere around the surrounding then he moved towards the basement of his lab.Tara on seeing him taking lot of risks she sorrowly closed the door using her finger print on the device.”Why no one is ready to help him”,asked Tara to everyone over there.Zhivago was busy in discovering the characteristics of the virus so he didn’t reply Tara even though he heard her.Van der Rossov looked down after Tara’s question while Michael asked her to look at his wound in the leg to understand the reason why he couldn’t help Gary Kristen.Tara then went and sat in her chair silently.Gary Kristen was looking around everywhere for every ten seconds that made him to walk slow.He was keep on asking himself what might be the condition of his basement as they left the door opened.He was pointing the g*n towards the front and was walking with lot of fear.The President then called the Hawkins lab and enquired about the process and the present status about the findings of medicine.The senior director general of Hawkins lab  said that they are facing lot of obstacles.”What are the needs”, asked President.”Sir, we need a human body affected by the virus and then we will inject the medicine that we have found in our lab”, replied the senior director general of Hawkin’s lab.”Do you think is it possible to do that”, questioned President.”I don’t know whether it is possible or not sir, but we have to make it possible sir.Only then we can find the medicine for this virus sir”, said senior director general.President was silent after hearing that because he was clueless.”I will call back to you after discussing with the army officials”, said President.”Yes sir”, replied the senior director general.”I don’t know what I’m going to do now” President said to himself.He was then scratching his head and called Henry Williams, Colonel.”Colonel Henry Williams, this is President on the line”, said President.”Yes sir”, said Bruce Williams”.”I called the senior director general of Hawkins lab and discussed about the present status of the findings for curing this virus.He said they are in need of a human body affected by virus.Only then they could find the medicine”, said President.”Okay sir.What I’m supposed to do now sir”, asked Colonel Bruce Williams.”We meed a human dead body affected by virus”, said President.”Sure we will do that sir”, replied Colonel Henry Williams.”Are you sure about that because I don’t want any lives of our soldiers to be wasted for a single dead body.I want you to promise me on this”, asked President.”I assure you that sir”, answered Colonel Henry Williams.”O h then go ahead with the soldiers and get our scientists a dead body affected by virus.Plan according to the nature of the virus and search for the dead body.”, said President.Colonel obeyed the orders of the President and he ordered the soldiers to assemble to convey the information.”We have a task to do now”, said Colonel Henry Williams.All the soldiers were attentive to hear the instructions.”Our scientists are in a need of a human dead body affected by the virus.Only then they can find the medicine for the virus”, said Colonel Henry Williams.”What are we supposed to do sir”, asked a soldier.”We have to go into the streets of the city or into the woods or anywhere else to find a human dead body affected by virus”, instructed Colonel Henry Williams.The soldiers were ready to go ahead.”All the soldiers will be provided a a respiratory mask and you will go to search only in groups.I don’t want the incident that happened last night to repeat again.We lost hundreds of soldiers 24 hours before and President ordered me to take care of you soldiers as he doesn’t want any loss now”, said Colonel Henry Williams.”Yes sir”,soldiers answered all together.Now all the soldiers wore the respiratory ,masks and they had AK47 machine guns in their hand and they were going into the city with the armt trucks.Colonel Henry Williams informed the air force and they were now supported by fighter planes and sniper helicopters.They moved into the city and were looking everywhere for virus affected people.The streets where they were searching was completely eradicated by the parasites that eat the human body after the death.All they could find was skeletons of human body.Colonel Henry Williams knows it will take a lot of time to find a human dead body that which was not decayed but they have no other option,because President didn’t want any life’s to be lost to  find a single dead body so they could search only in groups and they assigned only two teams each consisting of twenty soldiers.The remaining soldiers were protecting the borders of the every city.Meanwhile Zhivago was putting his lot of efforts to find the medicine that suppresses the characteristics of the virus whereas the scientists in the Hawkins lab were waiting for the human dead body affected by the virus to arrive the lab.It is this difference that makes Zhivago a better scientist than those who are working in the Hawkins lab considering for taking efforts and well planning for situations and skilled in forming an excellent team to execute the plan.The senior director general of the Hawkins lab knows they were in need of help of Zhivago but he wasn’t sure whether Zhivago is alive or not.So he didn’t want to put much more pressure on the government and the soldiers as of now considering the exasperating situations prevailing.Zhivago due to lot of focus o the blood sample he wanted Tara to help him to say the definitions about few things.”Tara can you please tell me the difference between the plant cells and the animal cells”, asked Zhivago.”Yes,sure dad.Cell wall is absent in animal cell and present in plant cell formed by cellulose.Vacuoles are small in animal cell and large central vacuole taking up to 90% of cell volume in plant cell”, said Tara.”Tara my dear,I want you to tell the important difference”, said Zhivago.”I know one thing about them”, interrupted the conversation and said Van der Rossov.”What it is Mr.Van der Rossov”, asked Zhivago.”Both are cells”, said Van der Rossov.On hearing that both Tara and Zhivago was felt like having a headache and don’t know why this old man Van der Rossov was making fun out the situation.”Please, don’t open your mouth unnecessarily”, said Michael and he was upset on himself as he couldn’t do any help for them.”Okay dad, I will answer you.The most important difference between an animal cell and a plant cell is that animal cell lack chloroplast and the plant cells have chloroplasts to make their own food”, said Tara.”Yes, well said my dear girl”, said Zhivago.Tara was keen on the expression given by her dad for this particular difference and she was very curious to know about that.”Dad, what you have identified with this difference may I know”, asked Tara                                                                                                         19 Then Zhivago continued his research work.He then included water in his research method for finding the medicine.Tara and Gary Kristen reached a distance of around two miles and they were tired so they took a break and sat down under the tree.”Do you think, we can get atleast one of those medicinal plants”, asked Gary Kristen.”My mom has taught me to stay positive in all kinds of situations”, replied Tara. “That sounds great but I’m worried about not finding even one of those plants but mentioned by your dad”, said Gary Kristen.”Don’t worry surely we will get those plants as soon as possible but we shouldn’t lose our hopes.We have to be keep on grinding”, motivated Tara.Gary Kristen then he took a long deep breath,closed his eyes and started to think about how they were further going to act.Tara was looking for the plants everywhere around the place from sitting under the tree as she was eager to find them.After looking around everywhere finally she found Mugwort and Yarrow.She stood up and ran towards it without even calling Gary Kristen.Gary Kristen opened his eyes hearing her running.”Hey Gary Kristen”,s shouted Tara.Gary Kristen went towards her.”Look at this we have found two of those plants mentioned by my father”, s said Tara and she showed her hands facing those plants.” That’s great but don’t go anywhere without me or these two humanoid robots,”angrily said Gary Kristen.”Please don’t shout. They might hear us and we will get into trouble. I’m sorry for my behaviour”, apologized Tara.Gary Kristen the he controlled his emotion and he also apologized back. “What are these two?” questioned Gary Kristen.”This dark green colored is mugwort and this pink one is yarrow”, said Tara and she plucked them along with the roots. Then she put them into the carry bags and they started walking further.Colonel Henry Williams was looking for the dead zombie and he couldn’t find one till now.So his group of soldiers planned to move in the roads.Colonel Henry Williams asked his team to move step by step and he wanted the driver of their truck to be accompanied by the soldiers. “Find everywhere, moves slowly, don’t go alone to search”, ordered Colonel Henry Williams.On the other side around half a mile away from Colonel Henry Williams Tara and Gary Kristen were walking towards the soldiers.” I think we will find the remaining plants before sunset”, said Gary Kristen.” I love your positive thoughts”, said Tara.Then they were looking for the other medicinal plants.Meanwhile, in Zhivago’s basement research lab Van der Rossov started to overthink.So he decided to pitch his questions.” Mr.Zhivago why you are in need of those medicinal plants specifically”, asked Van der Rossov. Zhivago who was observing the blood in a microscope stopped his observation and he answered,” those medicinal plants have special healing powers”. And if I use that against this virus I will know how it reacts and from then I could deeply analyze the way it helps us to find the medicine”. After listening to that the old man Van der Rossov still he had certain doubts.”How you are sure about that”, asked Van der Rossov.” The virus couldn’t affect the cells of the plants as far as I know so that I thought of using the medicinal plants to fight the virus And to be honest I’m just experimenting”, said Zhivago.Van der Rossov and Michael both couldn’t understand what Zhivago said but they pretended to act like they understood what Zhivago explained to them.The little boy was sleeping and it didn’t bothered to look at them since Gary Kristen left the basement research lab.In the forest ,Gary Kristen and Tara reached a place where they could find three of other medicinal plants.”Yes we got another three”, said Tara.”What are these”,q questioned Gary Kristen.”These are Oenothera, Cleveland sage and California Holly”, answered Tara.The humanoid robots detected some movement around them and it made a sound .Hearing the sound made by the humanoid robot he became alert and looked everywhere. A bullet pierced the humanoid robots and it broke the connectivity of its hand with the Bren Machine g*n. Tara and Gary Kristen were confused as they didn’t know from where they were firingTwice the bullet hit both the humanoid robot and it got damaged. Their heartbeat started to rise and they were afraid about the tuation.”Hands up”, they both heard a voice and turned back it was Colonel Henry Williams who was pointing his g*n on Tara and Gary Kristen. Gary Kristen on seeing them he raised his hands but didn’t raised her hand and she was staring at the soldiers. Gary Kristen then he asked Tara to raise her hands and then she raised her hands.Then all the soldiers surrounded them and Colonel Henry Williams had doubt on them by looking at their guns and the humanoid robots.”Who are you two?” questioned Colonel Henry Williams.Gary Kristen said “, I'm Gary Kristen and she is Tara”.”What are you doing here?” questioned Colonel Henry Williams “I could explain everything to you if you come to our basement research lab along with us”, said Gary Kristen.”I don’t trust the strangers”, said Colonel Henry Williams.”Sir we are involved in the process of finding a medicine for saving our city from this virus outbreak”, said Gary Kristen and he took a step forward.The soldier thought he might hurt them so they hit him on the back of his head and he was drizzied. Tara looking at Gary Kristen being drizzied she started crying. Soldiers then handcuffed both Tara and Gary Kristen and they made them to sit in the truck. Then Colonel thought that there won’t be any zombies around that forest because he felt that. Now they started moving in their truck to search for the zombies.While travelling Gary Kristen was back to conscious and the soldier nearby him informed about that to Colonel Henry Williams. Then Colonel came near Gary Kristen and he sat opposite to him to have a conversation with him.” Tell me the truth what were you both doing in the forest?” questioned Colonel Henry Williams. “We both were searching for different types of medicinal plants to use them and find medicine to cure the virus” , answered Gary Kristen. “You had two humanoid robots with Bren Machine guns. I doubt you both are terrorists”, said colonel Henry Williams. “Sir please believe us”, said Tara.” I’m going to take you both to the headquarters and you both should undergo medical test”, said Colonel Henry Williams.He also said that only if they both were not affected by the virus he would leave them.” Please give me a minute sir I will explain everything to you sir “, requested Gary Kristen.” Ok let me set an alarm for one minute from now”, said colonel Henry Williams and he set an alarm in his wrist watch and then he said to Gary Kristen”, your time starts now”. “Sir we are six members in total.The remaining four of them are in basement research lab two miles away from the place where you caught us. We have seen a monster in that forest. We also killed many zombies that came by our way to kill us. I’m a robotics professor and those two humanoid robots were invented by me. We use it as our guards to protect us from the dangerous situations. One of our members is a scientist and his name is Zhivago. He is the one who is doing research to find the medicine for this virus. He wanted us to collect some medicinal plants for the experiments. That’s the reason why we are having the plants with us. The other three are Michael, Van der Rossov and a dog that saved me from the zombie. Michael is an FBI agent and Van der Rossov is an old man” Gary Kristen completed explaining everything and the alarm rang in colonel’s wrist watch. Hearing all this colonel Henry Williams trusted him a bit and he was keep on thinking what Gary Kristen said to him and he finally decided to release their handcuffs and go to the basement research lab that Gary Kristen told him. But at that time the truck stopped suddenly and they all had a jerk inside the truck. “ Help,help Save us from the zombies”, said a group of people by standing in front of the truck.Now colonel and the soldiers got down from the truck and they pointed the g*n on the group of citizens and they ordered they them to kneel down and tie their hands at the back of their head. “Who are you people?”, questioned Colonel Henry Williams. One of them from the group of citizens said” we all were hiding in a building for the past one week. Today morning we faced threat from zombie but somehow we managed to kill it. We saw the army truck so we came out. Please help us.We aren’t zombies”. Colonel asked for the name of that person who explained all this and he said,”I'm Peter Johnson”. “Well it’s ok that you survived all these days. But I appreciate you all for that but still I want you all to keep your hands at the back of your head till we reach the military headquarters”, ordered Colonel Henry Williams.The people all were silent and they didn’t thought of asking any unnecessary questions.Since they didn’t respond for Colonel’s instruction he again raised his voice and said “do you hear me?”.” Yes sir “, they replied. Gary Kristen and Tara were looking at each other sitting in the truck as they don’t know how to communicate this incident to their team mates.                                                                                              20 “How could we inform this to our people”, asked Tara politely.” I think only if the colonel allows us we could communicate with our people”,r replied Gary Kristen.Since the soldiers didn’t have additional handcuffs they ordered the people to be self disciplined.They also said that if they found anyone not obeying their orders they would be dropped down from the truck. Few minutes ago Colonel Henry Williams thought of releasing the handcuffs of Tara and Gary Kristen but now he forgot about that because of the interference of the group of people.Colonel then he informed the team two soldiers about the incident and ordered them to go back to the army headquarters. Sunset was about to happen. Colonel didn’t want to take risk during the night time so that’s the reason why he ordered the soldiers to go back to the army headquarters. Peter Johnson, one among the group of people who stopped the army truck has got bite by zombie in his hip region but he somehow managed to hide it from everyone. Each and every minute Peter Johnson was afraid because of the soldiers. But he know at one point surely he was going to turn as zombie.If he turns zombie then everyone would be under trouble.They were moving towards the army headquarters.In basement research lab, everyone were confused as it was too late when Tara and Gary Kristen left the basement research lab.” This kind of feeling is always a developer of depression”, said Zhivago. “What kind of feeling are you going through”, asked Van der Rossov.” I mean the mixed emotions.Both positive and negative feeling dominating simultaneously”, replied Zhivago. “You want me to repeat what I said few minutes ago”, asked Van der Rossov.” What it is old man?” asked Michael. “I said good things will take time, all that you need is to have a good patience. I think they might be very much curious about finding all those medicinal plants. Then it may take time right”, said Van der Rossov.” Yes you are right my daughter always asked me to stay positive. I should obey her words”, said Zhivago.” There is nothing to think negatively about this Zhivago.Why I’m saying is Gary Kristen has a Bren Machine g*n and two humanoid robots and Tara has a pistol as well”, said Michael.Zhivago was convinced after hearing that and it boosted his confidence about Gary Kristen and Tara.Then he went and continued his research work. Michael gave a piece of bread to the little boy and he ate the remaining loaf of bread along with Van der Rossov.Zhivago had some medicines for other viral diseases in his lab so he thought of using them against this virus because he was clueless as of now.The virus didn’t react with the present medicines. It was post sunset and Zhivago was thinking about Tara and Gary Kristen because, while leaving the lab they said they will be back before sunset but still they didn’t return. Zhivago was worried now a lot.He couldn’t think positive now. He lost his focus on his observation. He then looked at Van der Rossov and Michael with anxiety.Even Michael and Van der Rossov were feeling the same.” Michael, what it could be “, asked Zhivago.” Zhivago don’t think in a negative way”, replied Michael.” I couldn’t concentrate on my work. I won’t continue my experiment until they return”, said Zhivago. They felt that the situation would have been vice versa if they all had one mobile phone for communication so that they wouldn’t had such confusions.But now the negativity surrounded them.The little boy was worried because it was missing the presence of Gary Kristen. Zhivago now he closed his eyes and started to think so that he could take a proper decision.After few minutes of thinking Zhivago decided to go out of the basement research lab along with the little boy so that he won’t be suffering from negative thoughts.But Van der Rossov and Michael felt that it wouldn’t workout.”Are you serious”, asked Van der Rossov when Zhivago decided to go out.” Please don’t go out”, said Michael.” I want both of you to understand that I couldn’t focus on my research work in this situation.My daughter and Gary Kristen didn’t return till now and it is dark out now”, said Zhivago.” Even we both are worried about them but we want you to be here and stay focused till you arrive at a proper plan for finding the medicine”, said Michael.” I lost my wife and lived alone without my daughter for more than a decade and now I don’t want that separation to happen again”, said Zhivago as he lost his confidence due to the delay in returning of Tara and Gary Kristen to his lab.”I want you to analyze and act accordingly because if you spend the time for other situations the zombies count will be keep on increasing”, advised Van der Rossov. Zhivago then he realized that what Van der Rossov said was true because if once the time is wasted it can never be regained.And he also felt that if he didn’t return to the lab due to any situation then it would be the greatest mistake that anyone could do.” Let us wait for them surely they will be back to our lab collecting all those medicinal plants at any cost”, said Van der Rossov. Zhivago was having lot of confusions now because he felt that he needed someone to hear his worries and guide him to finish the experiment. “I feel what Van der Rossov said was right.You have to be here and don’t worry about them because they have weapons with them to fight the threats”, said Michael.Zhivago after hearing all this he went and continued his experiment but he didn’t have a focused mind.The truck arrived at the army headquarters and the soldiers ordered the people to get down and they took them to the temporary medical lab setup by the Hawkins lab. It was the President’s order to set up a temporary medical lab in the army headquarters as they found it to be difficult to provide security everywhere. Colonel Henry Williams decided to send Tara and Gary Kristen at last for the medical test for no reason. The colonel was keeping on staring at Gary Kristen as he felt that he might cause trouble at any time.                                                                                                    21 The senior director general of the Hawkins lab asked the colonel and the soldiers to attend the medical test as they were travelling along with the people.Hearing that Colonel Henry Williams got upset and Gary Kristen started laughing at the colonel.Seeing Gary Kristen laughing at him he showed exasperation to the director general.Then there was an argument between the colonel and the scientist.It went for a minute and finally colonel accepted for the medical test as he felt that it was more important than his unnecessary anger.Now the soldiers and the colonel were ready to go under the medical test.The colonel went near Gary and he said ,” if I found you guilty on anyday or by anyway surely you will face the consequences”.”Oh come on colonel don’t have such a mindset.We are taking risks to save everyone”, said Gary Kristen...” I don’t know why you are angry at us but one day you will understand our value”, said Tara. Colonel Henry Williams didn’t reply anything as he realized his ego made him to speak like that. “Each and everyone will be tested separately by our assigned medical doctors and you will be given immune boosting medicines after the medical test”, said the director general. Peter Johnson was afraid as he was bitten by the zombie and he knew surely they will shoot him if they identify that.So he decided to somehow escape from there. All the assigned doctors were wearing a medical kit and they were preparing the required apparatus in a tray with all those antibiotic bottles and injections. “I need to go to the rest room “, said Peter Johnson.The colonel was not willing to send him.” Shut up man”, said Henry Williams.By this time the President came to know that the doctors have begun the treatment for the people rescued by the soldiers but he didn’t know that the doctors were doing a medical test for the soldiers as well.Peter Johnson was keep on asking permission to go to the rest room but everyone over there started shouting at him as he was delaying everything over there.Then Peter Johnson convinced them by saying “, I'm a diabetic patient I need to urinate at regular intervals oresle I will be facing severe consequences”. The doctors over there understood his condition and they requested the colonel to allow him to go to the rest room.After few minutes, Colonel Henry Williams allowed him to use the rest room and he ordered a soldier to go along with him. Peter Johnson thought that this was the right time for him to escape from the army headquarters.Peter Johnson then he moved towards the rest room and a soldier was following him with a gun.The soldier’s focus was completely on Peter Johnson. Peter Johnson was ordered to obey the instruction of keeping the hands at the bed of his head. Till nearing the restroom he kept his hands at the back and after reaching the toilet he requested to the soldier that he wanted to bring down his hands. The soldier after looking everywhere he found that none of his senor officers were there. So, the soldier followed him to free his hands. The soldier was hesitating initially because he will get scolding from the senior officials if he made Peter Johnson to free his arms, so he doesn’t want that to happen. Peter Johnson went inside the restroom and he was speaking alone. “God please help me, god please help me”. It was more than five minutes since peter Johnson went inside the rest room, so that irritated the soldier a lot. Because soldier felt that even a second delayed after one minute will lead to enquiry by the senior officers, but luckily the senior officer and Colonel Henry Williamson’s focus was completely on the medical test. “What are you doing, there?” asked the soldier by knocking the door of the bathroom. There wasn’t any response from peter Johnson.  Colonel Henry Williamson suddenly thought about Peter Johnson and the soldier Martin who went to the toilet didn’t turn back for a while. So Colonel ordered another soldier Richard to look for martin and Peter Johnson in the toilet. “Yes sir” said the Richard and he ran towers the toilet fifty meters away from the place where the doctors were testing the soldiers. Colonel and the group of people, after few seconds, “sir, sir, sir”, Richard come fast shouting, Colonel Henry Williamson asked,” why are you shouting man? “Sir, martin is lying dead near the toilet, said Richard. Hearing that everyone got panicked and the colonel ran towards the toilet alone as he doesn’t want the soldiers who travelled with his in the trek along with his so that the doctors won’t be having a headache situation. The remaining soldiers didn’t allow the people to move from their place. Tara and Gray Kristen looked at each other’s face and they thought something might happen very badly. Colonel Henry Williamson reached the toilet and he saw martin’s dead body in which the neck is cut and the blood was on the floor like a lake. Colonel Henry Williamson himself rang the alarm bell and ordered the solders to look after the people who were supposed to undergo medical test. Henry Williamson and other set of solders involved in the mission of finding Peter Johnson. The blood colored footsteps was visible to certain distance moving towards the sleeping place of the soldiers. Since the situation was so tense no one was there in the sleeping room. All were searching to find peter Johnson. Meanwhile peter Johnson was in half way to become completely virus infected person. The virus was affected to Peter Johnson at a slow rate compared to others because he has the habit of eating medicinal plants as raw. Peter somehow after ten minutes from killing Martin. Peter has now a zombie and he reached a sever state of hunger and then he saw a soldier viewing towards tree of ted walls of head quarters sitting above the truck with sniper for peter Johnson. Peter Johnson doesn’t know that but still he crawled and reached the bottom of the tank and climbed up and bite to soldier in his neck from behind and then both fell down inside the trunk and the soldier was dead. But still the remaining soldiers who were inside the trunk had controls on firing a small missile that would be very destructive for small radius but it travels as far as long as it hits the target when it is fired. Peter Johnson jumped o the tank controls and that lead to firing of small missiles in every direction around the military headquarters. It was completely a stupid thing done by the soldiers controlling tank. Four small missiles were fired in different directions. The first small missile destroyed the weapons store room of the military headquarters. The second small missile destroyed the vehicles section of the headquarters and the third one destroyed almost all the soldiers over there were dead. The last missile blasted the roofs and walls of the temporary medical lab and the soldiers were fallen down in drowsy state.                                                                                       22 Peter Jackson after letting and killing the tank controlling soldiers he comes out of the tank and escaped from the military headquarters through the damaged compound walls. Since the temporary medical lab was far away from the tank the missile only blast the walls and that lead to damage of roof. Because of the distance, the missile blast wasn’t that much powerful to kill all those who were inside the medical lab. Since everyone was down, this information didn’t reach president through anywhere who was there in the military headquarters. After few minutes, Gary Kristen was back to his normal consciousness and immediately he woke up there. “Are you fine? Is there any one wounded?” questioned Gary Kristen to Tara. Tara didn’t have a clear vision of Gary Kristen but she could hear him very well. I’m fine, replied Tara. Then Gary Kristen forced Tara to stand up and he pulled her hands up and made her to stand since she couldn’t stand up without Gary’s help. Both of them were handcuffed so Gary Kristen decided to break them but he couldn’t find anything around that could break the handcuff. So he decided to wake up Colonel Henry Williamson. He went near Henry Williamson and stamped him with his legs on the back. After two force stampings the colonel woke up and he stared at Gary Kristen and Tara and asked,” who are you? Gary Kristen and Tara were confused after hearing that because they were left with no words when he said that, “what are you saying Mr. Colonel? asked Tara. “Who is colonel? Asked colonel Henry Williamson then Tara looked at Henry Williamson head, blood was slightly bleeding as a apart of roof fell on his head at medulla oblongata part of the blast I think he lost his memory, “said Tara to Gary Kristen by looking at his head injury. “Yes, I think so replied Gary Williamson, “What are we doing here?” asked Colonel Henry Williamson. Using the situation as advantage Gary Kristen used him. “Sir you are the leader for this place, said Gary Kristen. Am I the leader asked Colonel Henry Williamson? Yes sir our enemies are the reason for your bleeding. I think it is the right time to take revenge on them, said Tara.” I won’t because our enemies at any cost.” By the way why your hands do is cuffed” asked the colonel Henry Williamson. Both got struck for the words and finally Tara came with a reply, “the enemies tied our hands”, “why did they? “Asked the colonel Henry Williamson, “Because we were trying to help you”, replied Gray Kristen. “Why couldn’t I remember anything”, colonel said to himself. “Sir you have the keys in your pocket to remove thus handcuff”, said Tara. “Oh wait” said Henry Williamson and he took the keys and unlocked the handcuff. “Thank you sir” said Tara. After few minutes colonel Henry Williamson realized and asked, “Why are the keys in my pocket”. “Sir we will tell you latter now let’s goes from here and takes revenge sir “said Gary Kristen and he was going to drive the truck to the temporary medical lab and picked them both and got to the basement research lab of Zhivago. All this was happening during night time. Gary Kristen he went to bring the truck. Tara and Henry Williamson were looking at everywhere. “What is your name?” asked Henry Williamson. I am Tara, she replied.” Don’t think me as clown if I ask a doubt to you”, said Henry Williamson. “Sure sir pitch me your question “said Tara. “Well, what is my name?” asked Henry Williamson. Tara hearing that she couldn’t control her laughter. “Why are you laughing” asked colonel. Tara controlled her laughter, and said your name is Colonel Henry Williamson. And you are the leader for us “said Tara. Hearing what Tara said colonel felt proud about him but he was also worried about his loss of memory. Then Gary Kristen brought the truck there and asked them to come and get inside. Tara and Henry Williamson ran towards the truck. Tara was bit slower in running. On hearing the sound of the army tuck, the senior director general of the Hawkins lab woke up and he shot at looking at the tuck with a blurred vision. “Hey don’t leave me here, please “. Tara hearing him she stopped running and turned back and saw him. Gary Kristen wasn’t interested to take him with them but colonel realized that he is the leader so he was the one who should take decisions. “Let him come with us it’s my order”, said Colonel Henry Williamson.         Gary Kristen didn’t have anything to reply so he accepted the order.Tara on seeing Gary Kristen being silent she thought that Gary Kristen is obeying the order of the Colonel.Tara then turned towards the senior director general of the Hawkins lab and ran towards him to help him to walk to the truck.”Tara”, Gary Kristen shouted while Tara was running.Tara turned and looked at Gary Kristen.”Tell him the truth”, stressed the words Gary Kristen.Tara now she could understand what Gary Kristen asked her to convey to the senior director general.”Yes sure”, Tara replied and she ran towards him and made him to stand.”Are you okay”, asked Tara.”I couldn’t see thongs clearly.It’s blur”, said senior director general.”I’m going to tell you a truth”, said Tara.”I know the truth”, replied senior director general.”What”, asked Tara. “Everyone are going to die”, said senior director general.”Oh,come on,I’m not speaking about that.Our Colonel Henry Williams lost his memory power.I want you to speak to him casually because we are in need of him for the commencing dangerous situations”, said Tara.Director general looked at Tara with his blur vision and paused speaking for the moment after he heard this.They stopped walking.Gary Kristen looking at both of them standing there and were looking at each other face.He got tensed and he shouted at them.Even Colonel Henry Williams was tensed and he shouted,”come fast,come fast we have to take revenge on our enemies”.Colonel’s command was heard by Director general and he stared at the truck.”Did you heard what he said.come on, let’s go now”, said Tara.”What the hell is this”, Director General Said.Tara and director general reached the truck and Tara helped director general to get on the truck.Then Tara got on the truck and sat near Gary Kristen.”What happened to him,is he okay”,asked Gary Kristen to Tara about the director general.Tara said,”he couldn’t see anything clearly.I think he has got some problems in his eyes”. “It’s just temporary guys, nothing to worry about me.I’m alright”, said director general.”Well, I’m Colonel Henry Williams.What’s your name”, asked Henry Williams to director general.”Help me god”, director general shouted as he was fed up.”Help me god, that’s a nice name”, said Henry Williams.Director general started crying after hearing that whereas Tara and Gary Kristen were laughing noiselessly sitting in the front of the truck.Meanwhile Zhivago in his basement research lab threw a empty test tube down due to stress because of thinking Tara and Gary Kristen as it was too late and they didn’t even return to the basement research lab.”What happened Zhivago?” asked the old man Van der Rossov.”It’s too late, I feel like dying inside.My emotions are not in control”, said Zhivago.”I think we have to go out now”, said Michael and he went inside the room to take the Bren Machine gun.Zhivago wiped his tears and took a long deep breath.The old man Van der Rossov stood up and he said,”We will do it my son”, to Zhivago.Whenever Zhivago was depressed Van der Rossov’s words made him to gain his will power that was much more needed than the knowledge. “I’m not ready to lose anyone for this research.Together we live or together we die.                                                                                            23 “No compromise”, said Zhivago and all along with the little boy marched towards the main door of the research lab.Michael opened the door using his fingerprint then they went outside.It was completely dark and they could walk only with the help of the full moon light.Meanwhile in the truck Colonel wasn’t controlling his mouth and he was keep on pitching questions to Tara, Gary Kristen and director general.”What do the enemies needed from us, Gary Kristen”, asked Colonel Henry Williams.”Gary Kristen was focusing on the road so he couldn’t turn back and answer the questions that were asked by Colonel Henry Williams.”Sir, the enemies spread the virus that kills the human beings.We has to stop them from spreading the virus further”, answered Tara.”Can you drive faster to the place wherever you are going to please”, asked director general as he couldn’t bare with Colonel Henry Williams.”Sure Me.”, said Gary Kristen.”By the way, where are we going could you tell me”, asked director general.”Sir, we are going o my father’s basement research lab”, said Tara.”Why are we going there”, questioned director general.”My father is a scientist and doctor who researches and finds medicines for the diseases”, said Tara.”Your dad is special my child”, director general said to Tara.”Yes sir, my father is one of the professor in the Hawkins lab”, said Tara.Director general was curious after hearing that.”Does he works in the Hawkins lab”, asked director general as a doubt.”Yes sir, his name is Zhivago”, said Tara.”Zhivago!!” director general said loudly because he was looking for him all these days.”But I didn’t order you to go there.Without asking me why are you deciding man”, interrupted the conversation of Tara and director general asked Colonel Henry Williams.”Sir did you forgot what you said before the enemies attacked us”, said Gary Kristen.”Why should we ask to you man”, said director general.”I’m your leader, you should obey my orders”, said Colonel Henry Williams.”Sir I asked you a question first answer that sir.Then you will arrive at a coclusion”, said Gary Kristen.Tara was watching all the three speaking with each other and she didn’t know to whom she should reply as their conversation were instantaneous. .”May I know what did I said you”, asked Colonel Henry Williams.”Sir, you asked me to go to doctor Zhivago’s basement research lab if our enemies attack our temporary medical camp in military headquarters”, said Gary Kristen.”Yes you said that,you said that”,both Tara and director general were keep on telling this to Colonel Henry Williams to make him believe.After few minutes of silence Colonel Henry Williams said,”Yes I said that.I remember now.Sorry for the confusion my folks”.”Thank god”, said Gary Kristen.Peter Johnson was running into the woods moving towards doctor Zhivago’s basement research lab.And Zhivago, Michael, Van der Rossov and the dog were moving towards the course of the monster without even knowing that because it was completely dark.”Are we going in the right direction”, asked Van der Rossov.Bow, bow the little boy barked.”Haha,I didn’t ask you the question my dear little boy”, said Van der Rossov to the dog.”I think we could know whether we are in the right direction or not only when the sun rises”, said Zhivago.”Will it be a good decision if I’m willing to shout their names now”,asked Michael.Zhivago and Van der Rossov stopped walking and they stared at Michael.Michael looking them staring at him he didn’t have any idea about their reason to stare at him.So he decided to question them.”Why are you both staring at me like how you see a stranger in this scenario”, asked Michael.”Are you making a way for the zombies to kill us”, said Zhivago.”Then how is it possible to find them”, said Michael as he couldn’t arrive at any better decision than this.”Your idea is logical but we can’t take risk now because we couldn’t see anything that is near to us.And I doubt myself whether I’m looking at your face and speaking or looking t somewhere and thinking that I’m speaking to you looking at your face”, said Van der Rossov.”You are much more logical than him “, said Zhivago.”Then you both tell me a better option than this”, said Michael.”As I said, we can’t raise our voices until the sunrise”, said Zhivago.”When did you say that”, asked Michael.”I don’t know”, replied Zhivago.”I think it would have been the same if we stayed ay our basement research lab”, said Michael.”That too seems logical”, said Van der Rossov.”Oh come on, stop your logics for a while”, shouted Zhivago as he was angry.”Why did you raised your voice”,asked Michael.When Zhivago was about to answer him they heard a unusual voice from behind them.They could hear the running footsteps sound.It was Peter Johnson who turned as zombie was running towards them with lot of hunger.The little boy looked in a direction and started barking.Michael felt that dogs could sense the vibrations better than humans.So he decided to trigger the bullets in the direction where the dog is looking and barking.Michael then loaded the Bren Machine g*n and he asked Zhivago and Van der Rossov  to move away.And,when he heard the noise level at higher level he thought that the zombie neared him.Michael pulled the trigger and fired the bullets.The bullets accurately hit the zombie,pierced through the head and Peter Johnson was dead.Hearing the bullet sound the little boy again ran away and hidden in a bush as it was afraid to  heavy sounds.After firing,Michael went near the Peter Johnson’s dead body pointing the Bren Machine g*n and he touched him.There wasn’t any movement.It was completely silent.Michael put down his Bren machine g*n and he took a closer look of Peter Johnson  from top of his head to the bottom of the leg.He was then keep on staring at the eyes of Peter Johnson.Suddenly at that time,Zhivago kept his hands on the shoulders on Michael and Michael got afraid.”Oh god! Don’t frighten me Zhivago”, said Michael.”I’m sorry Michael.What happened to it, is it dead or still alive”, asked Zhivago.”It’s dead, but it’s not safe to be here.We have to move as soon as possible”, said Michael.”I think it’s better to go back to the basement now .Bren machine g*n’s firing sound is much more greater than our louder voices.So it’s better to leave”, said Van der Rossov.”Come on old man, don’t you see what I have in my hand”, said Michael and he showed the Bren machine gun.”It’s fine Michael.But remember one thing we don’t have any extra bullets”, said Van der Rossov.”I think it’s better to move forward and search for Tara and Gary Kristen.Let’s hope that no more zombies come in our way”, said Zhivago because he has completely changed his mindset as to take risks in all the situations no matter what kind of obstacle they are going to face.Zhivago then found the little boy was missing.”Where is the little boy?” asked Zhivago to both of them.”Little boy, little boy”, shouted the old man Van der Rossov.”Why ate you shouting old man”,asked Zhivago,”I think my voice is much more lower than this g*n’s firing sound,hahaha”,replied Van der Rossov.The little boy heard his name being called so it came out of the bush and ran towards them waving it’s tail.By this time,it was almost a sunrise.”See, there he is”, said Van der Rossov when the little boy was running towards them.After few seconds by staring at the little boy Zhivago decided to move further.They then started walking in the straight direction and after moving to a distance of twenty metres they found the two humanoid robots being destroyed on the ground.Everyone were shocked seeing that and the little boy was smelling that and it started to bark.                                                                                            24 Zhivago was speechless.”What would have happened?” said Van der Rossov.”How do I know old man.I was also with you in the basement lab”, said Michael.”The monster”, said Zhivago who was standing behind Michael and Van der Rossov.”Are you sure”, Michael asked.”I think they are no more”, said Zhivago and he fell on his knees and started crying.”Don’t lose hope my son”, said Van der Rossov.”Even though it’s a monster Gary Kristen and Tara would have escaped from it”, said Michael to Zhivago to convince him.”Look at down, the ground is not wet”, Zhivago said crying.”Yes, the ground is not wet.But what purpose it has to do with from escaping from the monster”, said Van der Rossov.”It didn’t rain”, said Zhivago and made Van der Rossov and Michael to understand clearly that escaping from monster is impossible. Everyone lost hope but they didn’t know what attacked the humanoid robots surely they know it is not a zombie because the robots were damaged in a severe kind.Zhivago started to cry as he thought both Tara an Gary Kristen were killed by the monster.Thunder and lightning occurred because of the climate change and it started to rain.The rain gave hope to Van der Rossov about their safety as the monster won’t be roaming when it rains.Nothing would have happened to Tara and Gary Kristen”, saidMichael and he wanted Zhivago and Van der Rossov to walk along with them to the basement research lab telling them that they may be arrived to their lab and will be searching for Zhivago,Van der Rossov and Michael how they were searching for Tara and Gary Kristen.Zhivago considered it as the last hope and he started running towards the basement research lab in that heavy rain.Seeing him running Michael ran behind him to stop him but having the Bren machine g*n in his hand he couldn’t run as faster as Zhivago so he syopped chasing him and waited for Van der Rossov to reach him.Then after Van der Rossov reached Michael and along with the little boy they were walking towards the basement research lab.It was raining heavily.Meanwhile,Gary Kristen stopped driving the vehicle because the wiper isn’t working so that the raindrops covered the view of the driver and fog scattered over the glass of the truck.The vehicle was on and his hands were at the staering and the legs were at the accelerator as he was conscious about the danger that may happen at anytime.In the woods Van der Rossov and Michael were walking slowly and they were half a mile away from the basement research lab.”I’m afraid my boy.I couldn’t breathe properly after seeing those two humanoid robots damaged in a severe condition”, said Van der Rossov to Michael.”Don’t worry about that.I’m sure they are somewhere around this woods.Might be hiding from the one that destroyed the humanoid robots”, said Michael.”I used to motivate you people in tough situations but now I couldn’t do that.I’m really sorry”, said Vn der Rossov.”That’s fine”, said Michael.”How are you so sure about that,I mean you said Tara and Gary Kristen are somewhere around here”,asked Van der Rossov.”Did you see Gary Kristen’s Bren machine g*n over there”, asked Michael.”No I didn’t see”, said Van der Rossov.”So, without knowing the exact thing that has happened I won’t arrive at the conclusion”, said Michael.”That gives me some hope.Thank you Michael for convincing me logically”, said Van der Rossov.”Who knows about that even now Zhivago might met Tara and Gary Kristen in our basement research lab and they three might be waiting for we three,hahaha”,Michael laughed.Van der Rossov gave a gentle smile.After few minures,Van der Rossov and Michael reached the basement research lab and they saw Zhivago kneel down and crying as his expectation of Tara and Gary Kristen might be present there in disappointment.Michael dropped his Bren machine g*n down and he ran towards Zhivago and hugged him and he asked him to stay strong.But,Michael also lost hope so he also started crying along with Zhivago.Seeing these two crying Van der Rossov also started crying and the rain stopped.Hearing the crying of these three,the little boy started barking at them as it didn’t like that sound.Since the rain stopped,Gary Kristen took a old cloth under his truck driver seat and he wiped the front glass of the truck to get a clear vision.When he wiped he saw a group of zombies standing opposite to the truck at a distance of 45 feet from the truck and were staring at the truck.Gary Kristen’s heart skipped a heart beat due to fear and Tara was staring at them with fear as well as she was speechless.Director general’s eyes were still blurry and since he no more heard the sound of the rain he asked Gary Kristen to drive the truck telling him not to stay here anymore.Colonel Henry Williams saw those zombies but he didn’t know they were zombies and thought them as normal people.:Why are you standing there,come and get inside the truck”, saidColonel Henry Williams looking at the group of zombies because he lost his memory.”Shut up your mouth”, shouted Gary Kristen.”Why are you scolding our Colonel “, asked director general.It’s the zombies”, screamed Tara with lot of fear and her voice was shivering.Gary Kristen put the first gear and he moved the truck.”Zombies means”, asked Colonel Henry Williams.”Shut up your mouth”, saiddirector general.The zomies ran towards the truck and Gary Kristen hit the zombies by driving the truck towards them.Colonel seeing that he got tensed and he tried to push Gary Kristen away from controlling the truck.Tara seeing Colonel creating trouble he convinced him by saying that they were the enemies who attacked them few hours ago.Colonel Henry Williams took his hands from Gary Kristen hearing that as he was shocked.Gary Kristen was now relax to drive and he gave a furious look at the Colonel for his irritating behavior during this critical condition. “I think it’s better to drop our leader from the vehicle, said the director general. “ I warn you again, if you say that you will be bleed.” said Colonel Henry Williams. “No more arguments.  We are a team.  We should not fight for silly reasons” said Gary Kristen looking at the Colonel.  Henry Williams felt guilty and he said, “I am sorry for what I did”.  “Its ok Colonel”, said Tara.                                                                                        25 The Director General had a blurred view on the Colonel so he first touched him to confirm that the person who he was seeing with a blurred view was Colonel and not Gary Kristen.  He could feel it was Colonel after touching him and then he hugged Colonel William and said “I too apologize for speaking like that, forgive me Colonel”.  Then Gary Kristen increased the speed of the track.  They were only a mile away from Zhivago’s basement Research Lab. “How long will it take to reach the destination?” asked Director General.  “We are almost there sir”, said Gary Kristen.  “Where are we going?” asked Colonel Henry Williams.  “Sir, you asked as to go to Zhivago’s Basement Research Lab” said Tara and she gave an elegant look at Gary Kristen conveying him that she used her presence of mind in front of Gary Kristen.  “What will happen there”, asked Colonel Henry William.  “We are going to discover medicine to cure the virus and going to live a happy and peaceful life “, said Gary Kristen.    Ok Ok.  By the way was it my idea to go there “, asked Colonel Henry William.  “Yes sir, that what we told to you just a minute ago”, replied Gary Kristen.  In front of the Basement Research Lab, Michael stops crying first and asked both Van der Rossov and Zhivago to stop crying because worry won’t bring any difference. “Leave me alone you useless Idiots”, said Zhivago to Micheal and Mr. Rossov.  Hearing that Rossov stopped crying and he became angry on Zhivago for scolding him as well as Micheal for no reason.   After few minutes heard a sound of the truck and they were looking towards the east of the research lab because the truck sound was heard in that direction.  “Who is that? Asked Micheal.  I think someone is driving at Truck kind of vehicle to go somewhere.   Said Mr. Rossov and he looked at Zhivago to heck whether there is any change in his reaction.  The little dog started barking at the vehicle and it ran towards it.     Since the basement research lab is surrounded by tall trees the vehicle could not reach near the lab, so that they parked the vehicle around half a mile away from the research lab and walked to reach Zhivago research lab.  Gary Kristen parked the truck near a tree and he got down of the truck and asked Tara, Director General and Colonel Henry William to get down as well as they have to walk from there.  “Have we reached our destination”, asked Director General as he couldn’t see anything.  “No sir, we are near our destination”, replied Gary Kristen.  Before Director General asking the next question Tara guessed what he might asked so she decided to tell what he might expect next to know.  “Since our lab doesn’t have any roads we can’t go there with these kinds of heavy trucks.  So we have to walk sir”, said Tara.  “Ok, I could understand said Director General and they all started walking towards the Research lab.  While walking he heard the dogs barking sound.  The barking sound was kept on increasing and Gary Kristen found that it was the little boy. “Little boy, little boy “, shouted Gary Kristen and he started running towards the direction of the barking sound.  Colonel Henry Williams also started running behind Gary Kristen.  Tara looking at the Colonel she was confused that why he was running without knowing the reason.  Even though Tara was also very excited to meet her father and others, she couldn’t run like Gary Kristen and Colonel Henry Williams as she was helping the Director General to walk by holding his hands because even now his vision was blurry.  Gary Kristen finally met the little boy and both fell down and pouring love.  The little boy licked around the face of Gary Kristen and he hugged the little boy tightly.  Colonel Henry William was staring at the little boy and he asked what was its name?  Sir his name is little boy and he became my pet, when he saved my life from a Zombie.  Without him it would have been difficult for me to be in my normal behavior “   said Gary Kristen and he walked towards the Research Lab.  Lifting up the little boy in his hands and the Colonel followed him. They were just 15 meters away from the reach lab and Tara and the director general were 25 meters away from the research lab. After few seconds, Gary Kristen saw Zhivago, Van der Rossov and Micheal sitting down in the ground with worried face.  “Hi guys”, said Gary Kristen and all three of them turned towards him and saw Gary Kristen having the boy in his little hands and Colonel Henry Williams followed him but he was a stranger to them.  The moment they saw happiness in the face of Gary Kristen all their pain and sorrow went just like that within a fraction of seconds.  And they ran towards him and all of them hugged each other. Colonel Henry Williams was looking at them but that moment he felt a kind of emotional bond with them so he didn’t use the word ‘ I am the leader of them’, when the beautiful moment was happening.  After few seconds of tight hugs Zhivago asked about his daughter. Gary Kristen gently dropped down the little boy and then turned back to Tara and the Director General was looking at them standing at the distance of around 10 feet away from them.  Zhivago was happy to see his daughter and surprised to see the Director General of Hawkins lab along with her.  But Zhivago’s top most priority was his daughter so he ran towards her and hugged her as he was missing her very badly.  When Zhivago hugged Tara she realized how much her dad would have missed when she was a baby and went to another place with her mom and leaving her dad.  Tara then had tears for receiving such a kind of love from her father.  Zhivago enquired about the well being of Tara and she replied that she is fine.  Hearing the voice of Zhivago the Director General identified that it was Zhivago and he asked, “How are my old students”, do you remember me? “   By looking at somewhere else he asked that.  Zhivago paused for a while   and he was confused when he saw the director General looking somewhere else and speaking to him.  Yes Sir, your old student is fine and why are not looking at me? Asked Zhivago.  “My dear, my vision is completely blurred and therefore I couldn’t find where you are standing exactly.”  Said the Director General.  “I am really sorry I didn’t know that you have such a problem” said Zhivago.  “ Its ok my dear , said the Director General and he asked to take him to Zhivago Research lab as he needs some water and warns to take  rest.  Zhivago then asked Tara and to go and meet Micheal and Rossov who were standing along with Gary Kristen. “How did this happen, I mean the blurry vision, asked Zhivago.  “A tragedy happened in the military head quarters” said the Director General. “Ok, I will ask u about that in detail after we reach the lab; now could u tell me who came along with u?”, asked Zhivago. Since the director general had a blurry vision, he couldn't see  the colonel, so he asked who was standing there. “He looks like an officer”, said Zhivago. “Yes, yes! He is the colonel, Mr. Henry Williams.”He is the leader for all of us in the military head quarters”, said the director general. “Even now I am your leader, remember it”, said colonel Henry Williams in a bold voice. Hearing his voice everyone stopped speaking with each other and they were staring Colonel Henry Williams.  After few seconds of silence Gary Kristen moved towards Colonel and he introduced him to every one over there including the little boy as well.  The little boy was happy to become friendly with the Colonel but the Colonel didn’t like the little boy for no reason.  Then they all walked inside the research lab and Zhivago gave a bottle of water to everyone and divided the loaf of bread equally into pieces to everyone over there.  The Zhivago was keeping on looking at Gary Kristen.  Gary Kristen then asked,  “Why are you keep on staring at me? “ ,  “ Where are those medicinal plants did you both find anything?”  asked Zhivago.  Well we found almost all medicinal plants but at that time the soldiers came there and spoiled everything”   replied Gary Kristen and the moment he said soldiers, Tara looked at Colonel Henry William but they both didn’t want to tell Colonel Henry William was the one who caught them both and spoiled their plan.  Because Gary Kristen had some plans to execute later using the authoritative powers of the Colonel.  Gary Kristen was looking for discussing the truth with Zhivago in privately and he showed signals to Zhivago that he wanted him to come in person to inform about the serious matter.                                                                                                           26 Zhivago then he met Gary Kristen privately and he asked the reason for calling him private. “Do you know what happened when we went to search the medicinal plants” asked Gary Kristen.”Please tell me about that”, replied Zhivago.” The soldiers caught us and they took to the army headquarters and there your director general Adam Glenn asked us to undergo medical test .Then a tragedy occurred and the army headquarters was attacked suddenly and then we used that situation as an advantage and then we escaped from there. The colonel forgot his past memories so we took advantage on him as well”, explained Gary Kristen.” Now what should we do now “asked Zhivago. “ I want you to think a proper plan to get those medicinal plants”, said Gary Kristen.” This time we all are leaving the lab and gonna find the medicinal plants and then we are moving to the Hawkins lab”, said Zhivago.” Then I want you to tell all these instructions to our team members like all these were said by Henry Williams or else he will make unnecessary conversations then “, said Gary Kristen. “ Yeah surely I will convey them like how you are saying”, replied Zhivago and they both went out of the room and then Zhivago asked all their team members to pay attention. The research lab was completely silently as everyone were ready to listen to what Zhivago is about to tell. “We are going to execute our colonel Henry Williams plan “, said Zhivago.” What plan did I told you”, asked Henry Williams.”Sir I’m going to repeat the exact words that you said to Gary Kristen few minutes ago about what to do when a situation comes likes this”, said Zhivago. “ Ok continue then “, said colonel Henry Williams.Both Michael and Van der Rossov were confused as they doesn’t know when colonel spoke about a plan to them. “We are all going out of this basement research lab and move towards to the north direction to get the medicinal plants and then from there we move to the army truck”, explained Zhivago and he looked at Gary Kristen and Gary Kristen looked at Tara. Tara understood about what her father and Gary Kristen would have discussed privately and she gave a gentle smile fr standing behind Adam Glenn.” Zhivago why do we need the medicinal plants?” questioned Adam Glenn.”Sir let me explain you about it later when we are travelling in the army truck”, replied Zhivago.” Ok my dear student”, said Adam Glenn.It was hot outside the lab and they thought that the monster might come and attack them at any time so Van der Rossov was the one who was afraid about that fact than any other person in their team. They all packed the necessary things and Gary Kristen asked Tara to be with her dad and he looked after the director general to help him to walk along with him. They all came out and closed the research lab and started walking towards the northern direction in search of the medicinal plants. Meanwhile the President heard the news about the tragedy that happened in the headquarters of the defence and he was also informed that Colonel Henry Williams was missing along with the Hawkins lab director general Adam Glenn. The President then he decided to pour more soldiers in the state for continuing the process and also involve in search of the Colonel and the director general.The President then ordered the commander of the army to get involved along with the soldiers to execute the mission. The President wanted the commander Henry Nicholas to contact him after taking the decision. After few minutes Commander Henry Nicholas contacted the President. “Hello sir this is the commander I received the fax to contact you”.”I want you to take over the mission planned by Colonel Henry Williams. The situation goes beyond on control. I hope the news reached you as well about the tragedy that happened in our army headquarters of California”, said the President.” Yes sir.Surely we will move there within few hours with all of our soldiers and doctors”, answered Henry Nicholas.” It’s over to you now”, said the President and he cut the call.The President was keep on thinking about the consequences that were going on because of the virus outbreak and he didn’t know how he was going to handle the situation further if anything goes wrong. Commander Henry Nicholas then he ordered the soldiers to gather to give instructions.” Soldiers assemble. We have to go to California to take over the control of that place as the situation went beyond the control of soldiers over there.The border security forces are doing their job in their respective perimeters. We have to plan now and act accordingly to it or else it will be the same situation for us as well”, said Henry Nicholas.They were also accompanied by navy and air force commanders.” I need a map to execute the plan”, ordered Henry Nicholas and they projected the California's satellite map in a screen through a projector. Now the commander started his explanation. Everyone’s eyes were on the screen and they remained focus to listen carefully. Only then they could handle the present situation and if they fail to remember the plan then it will be a doubtful question about their survival after reaching there.He also said that if anyone commits a mistake then the entire team would be in trouble.” We have to divide into four set of soldiers and enter the state in four different ways. Team one will be entering from the north along with me and the rest of our teams should enter from east,west and south of the state  All the four teams should be equally divided in numbers with equally shared weapons. The air force team will support our soldiers in their respective places.We will be landing there in the helicopters and trucks.The team that which reach the destination first should inform about that to the other teams.We should move towards the capital of the state Sacramento at the same time. We should keep up our time that is the important factor in our mission. No mercy for the people over there because we don’t know who is affected by the virus so open fire if you have doubts on them even if it is a kid.After an hour the next four set of soldiers should arrive the four different directions of the state and move towards the capital city. Then the next set of soldiers will arrive in four different places and move towards the city”, explained Henry Nicholas about the instructions.Each and every soldiers were staring at the commander and they didn’t respond and that made the commander to get exasperated and then he shouted ,” is that clear”.””Yes sir”, pledged soldiers. Then the commander asked anyone of the soldiers to take responsibility for the their teams and three soldiers stepped front for their teams.The commander then asked them to report about the guns and grenades that they were going to take with them.Jason woakes one of the incharge of a team informed the commander about the weapons and grenades that they were going to take with him.” Sir we have M14 enhanced battle rifle, M16A2 rifle, M240L medium machine g*n,M590 shotgun,M107 long range sniper rifle,M26 modular shotgun shotgun accessory,M16 rifle with M203 grenade launcher and M240B medium machine g*n”, said Jason woakes.” Take machine guns with large caliber as well”, said the commander as it will be the greatest advantage for the soldiers to kill the zombies in large numbers.” Ok now it’s time for the departure.Soldiers disperse”, ordered the commander.The soldiers took the maps along with them .The helicopters were loaded with guns and grenades and they took the required foods along with them. Meanwhile, Zhivago and his g**g members were roaming inside the forest looking for the medicinal plants They could easily reach the geographical location of the medicinal plants because Tara and Gary Kristen were already been there before.They then saw the damaged humanoid robots and Gary Kristen got emotional and he sat near the robots.                                                                                                                            27 “How did this happen?,” asked Zhivago looking at the damaged two humanoid robots. Gary Kristen looked at colonel Henry Williams. Zhivago understood who did that when Gary Kristen looked at Henry Williams. But Van der Rossov and Michael were eagerly waiting for Gary Kristen’s answer but he didn’t tell anything as Zhivago understood who did that so he just walked towards the place where the medicinal plants were available. Henry Williams was the one who shot the humanoid robots. But he didn’t remember anything about that  so he moved near Gary Kristen and asked, my dear friend tell me who damaged  your humanoid robots I will take revenge on them. By the way was that our enemies who are the reason for the condition of your robots. Gary Kristen don’t know what to tell him so he was thinking   to find a reason  to tell him at that time Tara and  Zhivago were laughing and that made  colonel Henry Williams to give a furious  look at both Zhivago and  Tara  “ why are u laughing, “  boldly asked colonel Henry Williams. His bold voice made Tara and Zhivago to stop their laugh. Then Henry Williams stared at Gary Kristen for his reply. Gary Kristen then answered that it was because of the monster which destroyed this humanoid robots. This reply from grey Kristen made Van der Rossov and Michael to get out of the confusion for the reason behind the tow damaged robots but they were stuck with the reason for laughing of Tara and Zhivago  when colonel Henry Williams asked what was the reason for this damaged condition of the humanoid robots Gary Kristen. “ there it is  Zhivago , the medicinal plants that you asked us to bring, “ said Gary Kristen . “ thank god “, said Zhivago. “ what kind of monsters it is, “asked colonel Henry Williams because he didn’t want them to change the conversation ‘s topic  unless they clear  the colonel’s doubts . “ I will explain it to you in detail when we reach our truck,” said Gary Kristen and the colonel convinced with his decision. When Gary Kristen said the word truck it made the director general to recall what   Zhivago said to him, “my dear student I want you to explain me about the reason for the necessity of the medicinal plants for your research work.” Said the director general and Zhivago replied,”Sure sir.” Then Gary Kristen, Zhivago and Tara were collecting the medicinal plants and kept them in their bags. They were in need of cleveland sage and elderberry so they decided to walk much deeper into the woods but they don’t know the monsters cave was around half a mile away from the place where they were standing with the medicinal plants. Then they decided to separate in to two teams and one team will go in search of the remaining two medicinal plants and the other team will move towards the army truck. The member of the team who were going to search for the medicinal plants were Michael,Zhivago and gray Kristen and the team members who will be going to the army truck were Van der Rossov , director general ,Tara and colonel  Henry Williams. We want all you to stay inside the truck closing the doors and glasses of the truck,” said Gary Kristen. But why you don’t want us with you, asked Tara. Look Tara, Van der Rossov is an old man and we can’t take decisions considering our health condition alone. And  look at our director general he needs some to help him to walk where ever we go , because of the problem  in his eyes , ‘said Zhivago. Those words from Zhivago hurted Van der Rossov and the director general and they felt how helpless they were to everyone in that tough situation.” Yes Tara your dad is right.” Said Van der Rossov because he didn't want to go with them after hearing those words from zhivogo and Van der Rossov started walking towards the direction of the truck.  Van der Rossov and colonel henry Williams were not happy looking at him for leaving their team members and walking.  “ Hey , wait man, its my order again said colonel Henry Williams  shouted at Van der Rossov , but the old man  dindn’t pay attention  to the colonel  and he was just walking like in a direction how wanted to go. Tara looking at the way Van der Rossov was walking she understood that the old man was upset because of her father’s words. The director general also started walking in a wrong direction because his vision was blur but he wasn’t worried about that as he wanted to without anyone helping him.colonel henry Williams stared at Zhivago after seeing the way the director general suffers to walk alone. No importance for unnecessary emotions, said Gary Krister to Colonel Henry Williams as he understood for what reason the Colonel looked at them with a studious face. I just want to know when did I gave there kind of order asked Colonel Henry Williams. Sir you have to take care of them or go dirt knows about the remaining two of the medicinal plants, said Zhivago. Henry Williams felt it as logical so he didn’t reply anything and he turned back and holded the director general hand and started walking towards the direction of the truch Tara was walking along with Van der Rossov without speaking any words. After few minutes, when they all went away Gary Kristen looked at Zhivago and said, you should have said that to Tara in personal. I really don’t know they will take it so very serious, said Zhivago to Gary Kristen who started walking from there .Gary Krister didn’t reply to Zhivago and Micheal said Zhivago, come on man lets follow him. Okay fine. You will understand why I spoke like that when the right moment comes, said Zhivago because he found that when Gary Kristen didn’t like the way hoe he conveyed to them and that’s why Gary Kristen started walking away from there and didn’t answer to what Zhivago obtained on Micheal, Zhivago and Gary Kristen started walking much more deeper into the words but they didn’t know the monster’s cave was there. Tara looking at Van der Rossov she thought of making him to understand the purpose of her father’s words and she didn’t want him to feel bad about it any longer from now on. Don’t be upset Van der Rossov. My father said only for our good purpose, said Tara but Van der Rossov was keep on walking with a dull face. Why aren’t you speaking to me what mistake did I committed please tell me if I committed any mistake, said Tara. Van der Rossov stopped  walking and he looked at Tara for few minutes and Tara thought he might be her something but he didn’t answer her instead he was keep on staring at her. Tara was confused and she asked “Why are you looking at me like a thief who is trying to steal something”. I’m just waiting for two of our team members to join us. Look at how slowly they are walking. We have to wait for them, “said Van der Rossov and Tara could feel that still Van der Rossov was upset as he didn’t answer to what Tara asked him. Tara was sad and she didn’t want to speak to Van der Rossov till everyone gathers in the army truck. After few minutes, the colonel and the director general neared them and Van der Rossov started to walk. Tara then joined colonel Henry Williams and the director general a she felt Van der Rossov was avoiding her because of her father’s behavior. “Why he is not speaking to me”, asked Tara about Van der Rossov to colonel Henry Williams. “Your father doesn’t know how to convey things. All won’t have the knowledge of understanding situations. Everyone here are emotionally connected to some things and when they feel insecure you could see such kind of behavioral changes “, said Colonel Henry Williams. “But what did I do. I didn’t speak like that so what’s the use by not speaking to me”, asked Tara. My dear girl, Van der Rossov didn’t respond to me when I ordered him. He is very hurt I think so”, replied colonel Henry Williams. “Even I’m hurt by Zhivago’s words but what he said was very reasonable that’s why my depression and anger vanished after the moment I realized the purpose of Zhivago’s words”, said the director general. “I apologize to you on behalf of my father”, said Tara. “No my child, you no need to apologize for someone’s mistake. Don’t worry”, said the director general. Tara was convinced after hearing these words and she decided not to plead anymore to Van der Rossov as it was his mistake by not understanding and analyzing her dad’s words according to the prevailing situation. They were around quarter mile away from the army truck and they increased this rate of walking speed. “Where are we now”, asked the director general. “We are almost nearing our truck. I think only few minutes will take to reach there from here”, said colonel Henry Williams. Tara was surprised to see Colonel Henry Williams remembering about where the truck was parked because she knows he lost his old memories.                                                                                                           28 Meanwhile Zhivago, Michael and Gary Kristen were searching for Eldeberry and Cleavland sage walking a quarter mile from where they separated into two teams.”How it will look like.Explain me about it’s appearance”, asked Michael and Zhivago started explaining about it’s appearance (explanation required in detail about Eldeberry and Cleavland sage).After listening to the explanation, Michael and Gary Kristen were keep on searching for those medicinal plants as they want to leave the place as soon as possible because of fear for the monster.”We have only one Bren machine g*n and I don’t know how we are going to face the monster if it appears in front of us now”, said Gary Kristen.”I think it won’t be here anymore after the continuous rainfall in the woods.It might be migrated to some other place I suppose”, said Zhivago.”I’m not bothered about that.Even if it comes in front of us I will target and fire the monster in its eyes so that it can’t view further but can’t assure that it will lead that monster to death”, said Michael.”So you can target at the monster’s eyes by lifting the heavy Bren machine g*n pointing at an angle of 60 degrees.Is that what you mean”, asked Gary Kristen and Michael after hearing that he stood confused and then he started trying to lift the Bren machine g*n at an angle of 60 degrees but he couldn’t do that.Zhivago was looking at Michael with hope that surely he will lift the Bren machine g*n at an angle of 60 degrees.”First we should know whether we are capable of doing it practically only then we should speak about it”, said Gary Kristen and that made Michael to boost up his energy levels to lift the Bren machine g*n to prove Gary Kristen about how much capable he is in keeping up his words regarding the execution of the plan.He tried, tried and tried for several times but he couldn’t lift at an angle of 60 degrees not even once that made Michael to lose his self-confidence.”Leave that Michael,the monster won’t come in our way.Let us hope for that and will pray to the lord”, said Zhivago and then he changed his focus to search the Eldeberry and the Cleavland sage.Gary Kristen then he walked towards Michael and he said,”team work with proper co-ordination will lead to success.We need consistent efforts for that”.”What should we do now”, asked Michael.”Let us both try lifting this heavy Bren machine g*n at an angle of 60 degrees”, said Gary Kristen.Michael then he looked at the Bren machine g*n and he stared for a while and then he gave the Bren machine g*n to Gary Kristen.Gary Kristen then he holded the trigger position of the g*n and he asked Michael to place the front position on his shoulders.Now,Gary Kristen kneel down having the trigger position of the g*n in his hands and pointed the Bren machine g*n at an angle of 60 degrees.Zhivago who was searching for the Cleavland sage and the Eldeberry medicinal plants looked back to see what Gary Kristen and Michael were doing he saw both of them carrying the Bren machine g*n pointed to an angle of 60 degrees.This made Zhivago angry because he felt that they were wasting the time.”Come on guys,we don’t have all the day.We should find the medicinal plants as soon as possible and go to the army truck very quickly”, said Zhivago.”Oh sure”, said Gary Kristen and he took his hands from the trigger unknowingly and that made Bren machine g*n to fall.When the Bren machine g*n fell down Michael gave a furious look at Gary Kristen as it caused pain on his shoulders.”I’m sorry”, said Gary Kristen.Then Michael tool the Bren machine g*n and he said,”I could guess how will you react if you see the monster in front of us, hahaha”, Gary Kristen didn’t speak to Michael and he started searching for the medicinal plants along with Zhivago.They then searched for few minutes and finally Gary Kristen found the Eldeberry medicinal plant having the Zhivago’s explanation about the plant appearance in his mind.”Zhivago, look here I have found the Eldeberry plant”, said Gary Kristen and Zhivago looked at it and he felt happy about that.Zhivago then he plucked the plant along with Eldeberry’s roots and he placed them in the carry bag.”Now, we have only one medicinal plant left.We should look for that within few minutes or else will go to the army truck”, said Zhivago.Michael forgot the name of the medicinal plant which should be found now so he asked to Zhivago about it.”Could you tell me the name of the remaining one medicinal plant.I couldn’t remember it”, said Michael.”It is cleavland sage”, replied Zhivago.Zhivago then asked Michael,”you forgot about the appearance as well or only the name”. “Only the name”, replied Michael.”You remember my explanation about the appearance right?That’s more than enough and it is not necessary to remember the name and all”.They then started walking much more deeper into the woods and they reached a place completely occupied by the bushes.They felt,it will be difficult to walk on the bushes as they will be not having a clear view on which they were going to keep their legs.So they decided to go around the bushes which covered a radius of 20 metres so it took much more time.They crossed the bushes and reached a place where they found the Cleavland sage medicinal plant.”Yes, we found that”, said Zhivago and he reached near the Cleavland sage and plucked it along with the roots and he searched for extra Cleavland sage medicinal plants but it was seen inside the cave where the monster lives.But, Zhivago, Michael and Gary Kristen thought that it was a normal cave.Zhivago was the one who first stepped towards the cave.Gary Kristen wasn’t interested to go inside so he didn’t want Zhivago also to enter.”Zhivago, let it go”, said Gary Kristen.”Why, Gary Kristen”asked Zhivago.”I think it is not safe inside the cave”, said Gary Kristen.”So what,we have the Bren machine g*n in our hand.Michael will kill if anything comes in front of us”, saidZhivago.”Yeah, I can do that”, said Michael.Gary Kristen was not confident so he took a long deep breathe showing his disinterest to Michael and Zhivago.”Gary Kristen please do understand one fact.We might need more of this type of medicinal plant if our research becomes successful.So please co-operate.We have to take risks for the betterment of our state.Already it’s been too late”, said Zhivago and he convinced Gary Kristen to enter into the cave.But,Gary Kristen wanted Michael to enter the cave first since he was holding the Bren machine g*n and Michael also accepted that decision to go first as he was dangerous at that moment and he also wanted to show them how he was courageous at that moment and he also wanted to show them how much capable he is being an FBI agent.So Michael started to walk first into the cave.”It’s completely dark here is it possible to bring any light to me”, asked Michael.”Yes,I have a torch light,fix that in the Bren machine g*n”, said Zhivago and he gave the torch light to him.Michael then kept the Bren machine g*n and he tied the torch light in the g*n using a true climber that was fell down there inside the cave.”Zhivago did you find anything”, asked Gary Kristen.”Yes,I got four Cleavland sages but still I need ,much more”, said Zhivago.”Well,you are allowed to collect as much as possible within five minutes because it’s already been late and we should not take risks in others life”, said Gary Kristen.”Others life? What do you mean by that”, asked Zhivago.”I mean the ones who are there in the army truck,your daughter,Van der Rossov ,Colonel Henry Williams,the director general and the little boy”, said Gary Kristen.”Yes you are right.We shouldn’t take risks in others life.By the way thanks of the five minutes”, said Zhivago and he was focused only on plucking the Cleavland sages and after that he didn’t talk with Michael and Gary Kristen since he felt that five minutes it’s just like a second for that moment.After five minutes Zhivago was able to collect around ten cleavland sages and then he said,”let us go.It’s more than enough for the research purpose”.”Okay fine.That sounds great”, said Gary Kristen.”So I don’t have any work with this Bren machine g*n”, said Michael.Immediately they left the cave running because they heard some unusual noise.After coming out of the cave,Michael pointed the Bren machine g*n facing the cave.Gary Kristen thought it should be the monster.”I think it might be the bear”, said Zhivago because he felt it was the sound of the bear as he had experience of killing a bear a long ago when he was quarantined in Van der Rossov ’s warhouse along with Tara.”What to do if it’s a monster”,asked Michael because even if they lift the Bren machine g*n at an angle of 60 days they can’t target and fire the monster accurately at it’s eyes due to the heaviness of the Bren machine g*n.                                                                                                       29  “It is a monster then shoots it in its legs. So that it can’t walk or run further”, said Zhivago and both Michael and Gary Kristen felt it was logical. The unusual sound was increasing and they found something is coming out of the cave. Michael loaded the Bren machine g*n. Their instinct came true because it was the monster that was making that unusual sound. “Fire”, Gary Kristen shouted. Michael pulled the trigger and fired at the legs of the monster but unfortunately they had only three bullets. Gary Kristen and Zhivago stared at Michael. “Sorry, I didn’t check the bullets”, said Michael. “Run”, said Gary Kristen and Zhivago. The monster started roaring at its high volume because the bullet caused pain in its body. Zhivago was holding the plants tightly while running while running whereas Michael and Gary Kristen were running with free hands. Meanwhile, the people who were going to the army truck reached the truck and they get inside the truck and closed the doors and windows as said by Zhivago. “So you have any idea about what Zhivago will do having these medicinal plants”, asked Colonel Henry Williams to the director general because he was curious to know things. “To be honest seriously I don’t know”, said the director general. “Don’t you remember that director general asked about that to Zhivago”, asked Van der Rossov. “Oh man, do you speak”, asked Colonel Henry Williams. “Yes, I can speak, don’t have any doubts in it”, said Van der Rossov. “Oh man, don’t be upset anymore. That’s my personal advice”, said Colonel Henry Williams. After few minutes, Tara broke her silence and she asked to Van der Rossov, “Why you are not speaking to me?” “My dear Tara, your father didn’t lose his daughter but me, this old man had lost his son Jordan and I thought you and your father is my family. But what your father said was sounded like I’m a burden for you all people”, angrily Van der Rossov spoken. “Please forget about that. Everything that happens is for a good reason in our life”, said Tara. “You consider everything is for good”, asked Van der Rossov. “Yes”, said Tara. “Ok fine, then in what way I can consider my son’s death is for a good reason”, asked Van der Rossov. “Your son was affected by the virus and he turned as zombie and he tried to kill us. Even if we were not in your warehouse your son would have killed you”, replied Tara with a gut feeling. “So you tell me everything is for good right?”, furiously asked Van der Rossov . “Yes”, said Tara boldly. “Start the truck”, a voice heard. Everyone inside the truck looked at the person who shouted that except the director general and they found it was Gary Kristen who was shouting to start the truck. “Start the truck”, Gary Kristen again shouted. Hearing that, Colonel Henry Williams started the truck and raised the accelerator and waited for them to get into the truck. They saw only Gary Kristen and Michael were running and coming. The little boy woke up and it started barking at Gary Kristen excitedly. Gary Kristen was carrying the medicinal plants and Michael was having a stone in his hand to throw at the monster. He got the stone when he fell down while running. Now, Michael and Gary Kristen jumped into the truck and they ordered the Colonel to drive to drive the truck as fast as possible. Colonel Henry Williams obeyed as per their words. Both Gary Kristen and Michael were breathing heavily. “Where is my father”, asked Tara. They didn’t reply. “I asked where my father is”, again Tara asked. Gary Kristen started crying and Michael put his head down. “Please tell me where my father is. What happened to him”, asked Tara. “I’m sorry Tara”, said Gary Kristen. “Why are you asking sorry to me. Why you are apologising to me”, asked Tara. Michael went away from Tara and Gary Kristen and he sat near Van der Rossov and hugged him. The little boy was l*****g at Gary Kristen’s cheeks but Gary Kristen pushed the little boy away and he looked at Tara’s eyes. “Please tell me where my dad is. Why are you not telling me”, questioned Tara. “Your dad is no more my dear”, said Gary Kristen and he hugged Tara tightly and started crying much more than how he cried before. Tara lost her mind and she couldn’t get any words to speak. The moment when Colonel Henry Williams heard about Zhivago’s death he applied sudden breaks and he turned back and looked at Gary Kristen. Van der Rossov was shocked by hearing this and he felt guilty about the conversation with Tara. The director general began crying. The little boy was looking at Gary Kristen who was crying loudly. Tara after few minutes, felt down unconsciously and her pulse rate wasn’t normal that made everyone to be afraid. Of the situation. “Tara, Tara”, called Gary Kristen and he touched her face to make her wake up but she didn’t. Then Gary Kristen gave pressure using his hands in the chest of Tara but still she didn’t wake up. Finally Gary Kristen placed his mouth by opening the mouth of Tara and he blow air into her mouth and gave pressure using his hands on her chest. Gary Kristen tried doing that for four times but she wasn’t back to conscious. At the fifth time, Gary Kristen gave lot of pressure on her chest and finally Tara was back to her normal conscious. “Drive the truck “, instructed Gary Kristen as it is not save for them to stay there for even few minutes considering that the monster might attack them anytime from anywhere. “My father is no more”, cried Tara and she felt a heavy heart. Then she vomited and became so very tired within few seconds. The entire team members were speechless and they don’t know why they were going to the Hawkins lab without Zhivago. This time they had the medicinal plants with them but Zhivago no more. They don’t know how they will find the curing medicine without Zhivago and even the director general also lost his clear vision. This became a huge set back to them but Gary Kristen was clear in his mind that they should go to the Hawkins lab whatever may be the obstacle that comes in their way. “Colonel you have to go straight for ten minutes maintaining this same level of speed and then turn right “, instructed Gary Kristen. “I don’t have anything to look for the time. So it will be much better if u come and drive the vehicle”, said Colonel Henry Williams to Gary Kristen. Gary Kristen accepted that because only he and Tara know the exact geographical location of the Hawkins lab excluding the director general of the Hawkins lab due to his blurry vision. Gary Kristen took over the steering of the truck and he started driving to the Hawkins lab. Colonel Henry Williams didn’t ask about the need for medicinal plants to the director general as the situation was not kind to anyone there. Then Tara glanced at Van der Rossov and it remained her, the words said by her to Van der Rossov that everything happens for a good reason. But in the case Tara was confused because she doesn’t know for what good reason she lost her dad to the monster. She was keeping on asking that question to her in her mind and that lead to anxiety. The first set of soldiers landed in the north side of the California and they informed that to the military base and communicated with the other three teams. Army Chief Henry Nicholas knows it’s a hectic process to execute the plan in this way but he has lot of belief in the phrase, slow and steady wins the race. “Team 1 arrived north of California”, said Henry Nicollas and it was received by all other teams. “Team 2 are about to land sir”, said the pilot. Team 3 and Team 4 were a way away from reaching the respective destinations. “Don’t panic. We have powerful guns and grenades. Even if the entire town is full of zombies and they come to attack us we can fire and demolish them within seconds. Hope you remember our agenda. Kill anything that moves and find our Colonel Henry Williams”, said the army chief, Hendry Nicholas. “Yes sir”, replied the group of soldiers. Then they get down from the helicopter and waited for the remaining two teams to report Henry Nicholas. After several minutes, team 2, 3 and 4 reported Chief Henry Nicholas. Now, Henry Nicholas ordered all the teams to move forward towards the centre of the state. It will take around five to six days for them to meet at the state’s centre. All they had in their mind was to kill anything they see that moves. Meanwhile, more flighter planes were flying, viewing the cities and report Henry Nicholas if they see anything unusual. The truck was moving towards the place where Henry Nicholas’s team was residing for the moment. The truck was half a mile away from the Hawkins lab. “We are almost there everyone”, said Gary Kristen. Since no one replied, so he turned back and looked at everyone’s face. “I said we are almost there”, Gary Kristen said again. “Okay, my friend”, replied the director general and at that time suddenly a missile came and hit at the back wheel of the truck. The truck skitted but Gary Kristen somehow managed to handle the truck and he looked up and saw it was the army helicopter.                                                                                                      30 “It’s an army helicopter. Why they are firing us”, said Gary Kristen and he started rash driving going in like a zigzag manner to escape from the helicopter's firing. “They are considering us as zombies I think” said Colonel Henry Williams. Gary Kristen then turned the truck left and a rocket launcher fell in front of the truck and he rotated the steering fastly and the truck skitted but nothing went wrong and he got control over the truck. “Sir, we have got a movement in last side of your regime around a mile away. Some guy is driving the army truck. We are firing on him”, informed pilot to the Army Chief Henry Nicholas. “Is the target down”, asked Henry Nicholas. “No sir”, replied the pilot of the helicopter. “Then shoot on the tyres of the truck and if you find the driver to be a normal guy then arrest him and keep in our custody”, ordered Henry Nicholas. “Ok sir”, said the pilot and he looked at the sniper and signalled him to fire on the tyres. The sniper loaded the g*n and he aimed at the back tyre. Gary Kristen saw the Hawkins lab it was around a quarter mile away from them. Gary Kristen then increased the speed of the truck and when they went near to the Hawkins lab he saw the gates being closed, so he decided to dash those gates with the truck in a massive speed. The truck almost reached near the gate. When they were around ten to fifteen feets away from the gate, the sniper triggered the bullet and it hit on the back tyre of the truck ans and it was punctured. Because of this, the speed of the truck was reducing and Gary Kristen had doubt that whether the truck can break the gates in this speed. But, Gary Kristen never gave up and he was keep on raising the accelerator. The truck couldn’t go more than sixty kilometer per hour because the punctured back tyre acted as the friction. The sniper again targeted another back tyre and this time when he initiated to pull the trigger, the monster interfered by jumping to the height of the flying helicopter and it slapped the helicopter with it’s strong arms and long nails and the pilot lost control over the helicopter and the helicopter fell down and it blasted. Gary Kristen hit the gate with the truck but he couldn’t completely open the gates. The truck got struck between the two gates and there was space left only for an individual to pass through the gate. Since the truck hit the gate everyone inside the truck fell down here and there and they took few seconds to come back to their normal position. Gary Kristen got down from the truck and he looked at the burning helicopter and he didn’t know what might be the reason for the helicopter’s blast. He could see a gigantic silhouette coming out of the smoke from the burning helicopter. When it came completely out of the smoke Gary Kristen identified that it was the monster that destroyed the helicopter. Gary Kristen couldn’t breathe properly by looking at the monster which was staring back at the eyes of Gary Kristen. Van der Rossov put his head out of the truck and he saw a gigantic monster and said, “Oh my god, please help us“. “Run, run everybody get out of the truck and run”, shouted Gary Kristen. Everybody got down from the truck and started running towards Hawkins lab. Colonel Henry Williams was the first to run followed by Michael, Tara, and Van der Rossov. But the director general didn’t run behind them since he can’t see things clearly he ran towards the monster thinking that he is running in the right direction. ”You i***t, come this way”, shouted Gary Kristen. Listening to the voice of Gary Kristen the director general realised that he was running in the wrong direction so he turned back and started running towards the gates of the Hawkins lab where Gary Kristen was waiting for him to come. By this time, Colonel Henry Williams, Michael, Tara and Van der Rossov reached the door of Hawkins lab but they couldn’t open the door because they were in need of the fingerprint access of the director general to open the door but still he not even reached the gates of Hawkins lab. The distance between the lab and the main gate was around 30 to 40 feets. The monster started chasing the director general and Gary Kristen. Since Michael shot three bullets in the legs of the monster an hour before it couldn’t rum faster like how it usually runs.Gary Kristen holded the hands of the director general and they started running towards the main entry of the Hawkins lab. The distance between the monster and Gary Kristen was around 2 feets. Gary Kristen and the director general ran faster and they reached the main entry door of the Hawkins lab. They guided the director general to keep his fingerprint for the access to open the door. The door opened and they all went in. The monster was running towards them but now they couldn’t close the door because the machine’s functioning was lagging, a kind of technical error. “Close the door, close the door”, everyone shouting at director general because of the fear for monster. The monster almost reached the main entry door of the Hawkins lab and at that time the doors were closing. Seeing the doors closing their fears were vanishing a bit by bit but at last the monster kept his huge hands in between the closing doors and it made everyone to skip their heart beat. The monster tried to enter into the lab. Gary Kristen found some glass bottles near him so he took them and throw at the hands of the monster and it caused pain for the monster and it roared at its high volume. “What was that? “, asked Henry Nicholas to his soldiers after hearing the sound of the roaring monster few miles away from the Hawkins lab. The monster tried to enter the Hawkins lab and it almost opened the door but luckily it started to rain and the monster couldn’t stand there. “Throw all the glass bottles at the monster or else it will come inside our lab due to rain” said Gary Kristen. Hearing his words everyone took the glass bottles except the director general and they threw at the monster. The monster couldn’t hold the door bearing the pain so it left the doors and started running towards the cave. This time Tara chased the monsters having the glass bottles in her hands because she had lots of anger on the monster as it killed her father Zhivago. Seeing Tara chasing the monster in the rain Gary Kristen called her to come back to the lab but she didn’t listen. So, Gary Kristen ran behind her and after few seconds Gary Kristen caught Tara and he brought her to the lab because she couldn’t overcome her father’s death. Now, the director general closed the doors of the Hawkins lab and switched on all the lights. They sat in the places where each one of them was standing before and they looked at each other’s face. Van der Rossov gave a side hug to Tara and he holded her shoulders and advising her not to think about the past and let it go. Tara couldn’t come out of that and she was crying continuously because she met her father after long years of gap but she couldn’t be with him even for few months. Van der Rossov didn’t know how to convince her so he didn’t talk anything from them. “Now what we are going to do next”, asked Gary Kristen generally. “We should find why the helicopter fired at us”, said Colonel Henry Williams. ”But, that’s not important”, said Van der Rossov. “Then what should we do next Mr. Van der Rossov “, asked Colonel Henry Williams.” We should start the process for finding the medicine for the virus. That’s the reason why we are here now Colonel Henry Williams “, replied Van der Rossov. “Where are the medicinal plants? “, asked Michael. Gary Kristen looked at Tara because she was the person who was carrying the medicinal plants in her hand while sitting in the truck. “It’s in the truck” said Tara to Gary Kristen. Everybody took a deep breath because of the fear for the monster but since it was raining they felt it as an advantage. “Okay let me go out and bring those medicinal plants from the truck “, said Michael and he stood up to go out. But Tara said, “it is because of me those medicinal plants are still inside the truck. I’m responsible for that so let me go out and bring those medicinal plants”. Gary Kristen wasn’t interested to let her go but Van der Rossov was willing to send her out as he could see her courage rising now to the next level.                                                                                                                  31 Tara then she stood up and took a glass bottle in her hand and she stood near the door and turned and looked back at the director general. Gary Kristen looked her and realized what she was conveying so he guided the director general to go near the door and use his fingerprint to access the door. The door opened and Tara walked having a glass bottle in her hand towards the truck. Van der Rossov got goosebumps by looking at the way she was walking to the truck. It was heavily raining so no one had the panic about the monster's interference. Tara then sat on the driver’s seat threw the bottle at the back seat.Tara then she drove the truck and she parked near the truck near the main door of the Hawkins lab. She then got down from the truck and threw the truck's key to Gary Kristen and she walked inside the lab. Her body language conveyed that she asked anyone of them over there to take those medicinal plants and give it to the director general so that they both would start their research.Tara decided to involve in the process of finding the medicine for the virus on behalf of her father by seeking help from Adam Glenn.Then Gary Kristen and Michael took the medicinal plants from the army truck and they kept it inside the research lab. Tara then asked Michael to bring her bag to her from the truck because she kept the blood samples of Jordan and the bear in her bag. She prayed to the lord that the test tube wouldn’t have broken after those chasings and dashings on the gate. Michael then gave her the bag but she didn’t get it from him.” Tara, your bag”, said Michael.” I order you to open my bag and check whether the test tube containing Jordan’s blood is for safe or broken “, said Tara. Van der Rossov was surprised to see such a behaviour change in Tara. Since Michael felt not to yell at her for her behavior change due to her dad’s death. He took this temporary decision until they find the medicine for the virus. Michael opened the bag and he checked. He found that the test tubes containing the bloods were safe and then he informed Tara.” Ok then carry the bag with you and follow me”, said Tara and she started walking to the lab where they were going to begin their research work. “Am I her servant”, asked Michael looking at everyone when she left the front lobby of the lab. Van der Rossov started laughing at him for the way he was holding the bag and standing with doubts. Adam Glenn went to the lab room with the help of Gary Kristen.” First explain me what your dad said to you about this “, asked Adam Glenn.” My father asked me to test the virus in the medicinal plants and observe how it reacts with the plant cells”, answered Tara.” Why he chooses the medicinal plants do you have any idea “, asked Adam Glenn.Before Tara answering Adam Glenn Michael brought the blood sample and he gave it to Tara?”  You may leave now “, said Tara to Michael after receiving the test tube. She then asked Michael to keep her bag on the table that was near Tara.Michael kept the bag angrily and he left the lab room. Gary Kristen asked Tara,” do you want me to help you or can I leave “.” If we both require your favor we will call you for sure “, said Tara and Gary Kristen left the lab room.Tara then she closed the lab room and she started discussing things with the director general.” My father said the virus didn’t affect the plants so that we have to find medicine from certain type of medicinal value plants and test it one the virus affected blood”, said Tara.”. That’s a nice idea but I just wanted to know the medicinal values of each and every plant that we have “, asked the director general and Tara said she will let him know after completing the research about the plants medicinal value The director general knows she would take a lot of time to research everything so he decided to take rest till that. Since the director general almost lost his vision he closed his eyes and started to think about his past memories in the Hawkins lab when he was a student as well as being the director general.Tara started her research work by referring books over there amd searched for the information in online websites related to the botanical values and concepts related with the biochemistry lessons that which was related with the medicinal value plants. Meanwhile Gary Kristen, Michael and Van der Rossov were discussing about things having the little boy as well.” Why is she behaving like this “, asked Michael.”I think it would be better if we discuss something that which is useful to everyone”, said Van der Rossov because he believes only small minds would discuss about the people.” Ok Van der Rossov. Let me.hear you speaking about concepts which will be useful to us”, said Michael.Gary Kristen was worried about the way Michael spoke to Van der Rossov.” Let us speak about the monster “, said Van der Rossov.” I think it won’t be appropriate for the day.I lost my friend because of that monster.So if you want to discuss about the monster then discuss about a plan to kill the monster”, said Gary Kristen by closing his eyes.’ Bow, bow the little boy barked.” Michael could you tell me what happened to Zhivago”, asked Van der Rossov.” Well we were running away from the monster in the forest. Zhivago was carrying the medicinal plants in his hands so he couldn’t run faster like me and Gary Kristen.He just stopped running and called us by shouting our names and then he threw the medicinal to us and he said ,” we both should take these medicinal plants and go to the army truck and shouldn’t worry about him”. But we were not willing to do that .But Zhivago said to us that more than him,the plants should reach in the hands of his daughter.So Tara and Adam Glenn would begin the experiment to find the medicine for the virus”, explained Michael.” But why he sacrificed his life for that “, asked Van der Rossov to Michael but instead of Michael, Gary Kristen answered him. “The monster was chasing us .If Zhivago was running with the medicinal plants surely we would have lost both Zhivago and the medicinal plants resulting in no use for us in anyway. So he decided to give the medicinal plants to us and he stood facing the monster. Before the monster's attack he said let the monster eat him so that me and Michael could utilise that time and run to the truck and save all of you”, explained Gary Kristen. Van der Rossov felt proud of Zhivago’s sacrifice and he felt that Michael shouldn’t blabber about Tara here afterwards for Tara s behavior change and all.” We should show more respect to Tara on behalf of her dad who saved our life. We should encourage her to find the medicine for the virus only then it will be a justice for our friend Zhivago”, said Van der Rossov. “I think its because we left Zhivago to the monster Tara got angry on us and she is behaving like this to me and Michael. I’m damn sure that she doesn’t like us hereafter”, said Gary Kristen.” No need I think about it. I’m sure it’s because of that incident only she hates us “, said Michael looking down at the floor.” Let she complete her experiment works and I will speak to her about this and make understand about the situation”, said Van der Rossov. The commander, Henry Nicholas was keeping on trying to communicate with the helicopters but he couldn’t connect them and because of this he was exasperated a lot.” What happened to this communicating device it’s irritating me”, said Henry Nicholas.” Sir it’s because of this heavy rain they might not be able to communicate with us “, replied a soldier and Henry Nicholas thought it might be right as it was a satellite phone and due to the heavy rain they couldn’t have proper signal.He didn’t have any other reason to think about this.Due to the heavy rain the other set of soldiers couldn’t reach their destination because of the difficulty in take off of helicopters during heavy rain.After an hour ,the rain stopped and then the soldiers started moving forward following their commander Henry Nicholas.The other set of soldiers were ready to take off and travel to their respective destinations assigned. The commander’s team of soldiers couldn’t walk in a straight line at present due to the wet lands caused die to heavy rain.After several minutes of hurdles finally the soldiers reached a place and they saw the helicopter destroyed by the monster and they were shocked to see that.He then informed about this to their base.” Here the situation doesn’t seems to be normal something miserable has happened and it destroyed our whirlybird”, said Henry Nicholas.The news about the whirlybird reached the other set of soldiers and they all were shocked.Henry Nicholas ordered other teams not to move further until they receive order from him. The news reached the President and he was very much disappointed because from the beginning of this virus outbreak the death rates were keep on increasing and he didn’t knew how he was going to face the issues at the global level for failing in missions.                                                                                                         32 “I need to talk to the commander”, said the President to the officials. They then involved in arranging things to communicate Henry Nicholas.They were keeping on trying to connect Henry Nicholas but the technical team found it difficult to connect commander’s satellite phone.”Sir due to the weak satellite signals as of now we couldn’t connect the commander. The technical team are trying their level best sir.They asked me to inform you that it will take some time sir “, said an official. The President was fed up the after hearing that and he was worried that nothing goes right from the beginning of this virus outbreak. “Ok, inform me when everything comes right”, said the President. Meanwhile, in the Hawkins lab Tara completed her research work about the plants and she went to meet and tell the director general Adam Glenn about it.” Sir I have found all the uses of all types of medicinal plants that we have with us “, said Tara.Hearing Tara’s bold voice the director general woke up from his sleep and asked, “what were you saying”. “Sir, I have found the medicinal uses of all types of plants that we have with us”, said Tara again.” Ok Tara.That sounds great.Could you tell me one by one”, asked the director general.” Yes sir.First I’m going to say about the uses of Cleveland sage.It is used for herbal bath, astrigent cleansing lotion, hair rinse to condition your hair and it boiled in water to disinfect a room. Next is elderberry.It boosts our immune system and helps taming inflammation lessen stress and help protecting the heart.Then Oenothera is used to treat gastro-intestinal disorders of a functional origin and it is also taken internally in the treatment of eczema,acne,brittle nails, rheumatoid arthritis and alcohol related liver damage.Then mugwort is used as a liver tonic, to promote circulation and as a sedative.Other uses include treatment of hysteria , epilepsy and convulsions in children.And, women take mugwort for irregular periods and other menstrual problems. Then yarrow is used for fever, common cold, hay fever, absence of menstruation, dysentery ,diarrhea, loss of appetite,gastrointestinal (G1) tract discomfort and to induce sweating.It can also be chewed to relieve tooth ache.Then California Holley alleviates some forms of pain. The leaves are used to empty and cleanse the bowels , stimulate the heart and increase urine flow.Now I’m going to tell you about the last medicinal medicinal plant valley oaks.It is used in the treatment of hemorrhages,chronic diarrhoea dysentery. And a poultice of the ground galls and salt has been used as a treatment for burns, sores and cuts”, explained Tara completely and everyone in the lab were surprised to see her analysis knowledge.” You are really great my fear.You are capable of learning things faster than your dad”, said the director general and he revised all the medicinal values once again by closing his eyes. After few minutes, he came up with an idea.” Tara how many plants do we have in each type”, asked the director general.” On an average we have three numbers in each variety of the medicinal plants sir”, replied Tara.” Ok fine.Now we are going to start our research work by mixing all variety of the medicinal value plants and add a drop of blood sample and I think we should wait for a long to see the change but we will observe each and every second after adding the blood drop in a microscope.Then we will decide to proceed further”, instructed the director general and Tara also accepted that. Before doing that she had a doubt that process and she asked her doubt to the director general.” Sir should we mix the plants till it becomes a liquid form or just like that mix up and proceed further”,  Tara asked her doubt.” It should be in a liquid form my dear.Two substances should bring same kind of state only then we can get the desired result of how a zombie’s blood reacts with the liquids obtained from the mixture of all types of medicinal value plants”, the director general explained. Then Tara asked Van der Rossov, Michael and Gary Kristen to mix the plants and grind till it turns into a liquid form.” Why we are doing this “, asked Michael.” It’s none of your business”, said Tara and it exasperated Michael a lot and he stopped doing this work and gave a furious look at her. But Tara didn’t even pay attention to him and she went to the lab room just like that.” Please don’t ask her anything. Do the work assigned to you”, said Michael.” According to the present scenario you shouldn’t ask anything to her.She is upset on both of us for leaving Zhivago to that monster.What we did is like a back stabbing for her.It won’t solve within a day.I can’t guarantee you even the number of years she takes to become normal to us”, said Gary Kristen and from that moment Michael decided not to yell at her as he realized his mistake and he knew his mistake can’t be easily forgiven. The little boy was roaming inside the lab as it wasn’t bothered about anything that was going around the lab between the people. Colonel Henry Williams was observing the lab room because he was very furious to know what was happening inside the lab room. After few minutes, Michael Gary Kristen and Van der Rossov completed their task and gave the liquid form of the medicinal plants to Tara.While giving the liquid of the medicinal plants Michael decided to apologize to Tara.” I’m sorry Tara”, said Michael but Tara got the liquid and she walked away like as if she didn’t know there was a person.” What did I told you “, asked Gary Kristen after seeing Michael trying to speak to her for apologizing for his mistake. “ You said she will take years but I don’t want that to happen.I want her to forgive me however soon possible”, said Michael.” Come on boys. It's enough speaking about this. Its her wish to speak to anyone.Now she lost her father so act like a man don’t show your feelings to her because if she really wants to speak to you she will come and speak.Till that be patient and kind”, advised Van der Rossov . After hearing the advice Michael and Gary Kristen stopped arguing about that and each oh they sat in one, one corner quietly.Tara entered the lab room and he informed the director general that the liquid was ready for the experiment.” Ok my dear.Now suit up and take a drop of blood sample in a slide and pour one drop of the liquid in the blood sample.Then observe what happens using the microscope”, explained the director general.” Ok sure sir. I will proceed the way you instructed me now “, said Tara.” Ok dear now help me to get out of this room because without wearing experiment suits and standing here will lead to trouble”, said the director general. “Sure sir”, said Tara and she holded his hands and helped him to get out of the lab room.” Now you are out of the lab room sir”, said Tara.” Thank you my dear.Kindly report me what you have observed after finishing our experiment”, said the director general and Tara obeyed his words.Tara then went inside the lab room and she wears the experiment suit a kind of hazmat suit and she closed the door.hen she began her experiment by mixing the liquid obtained from the medicinal plants in a drop of Jordan’s blood in a slide and she was observing for the changes.It was almost half an hour from when Tara poured the liquid obtained from the mixture of the different types of the medicinal plants in the blood drop of and she find any changes till now. Colonel Henry Williams was sitting along with the director general and he was keep on throwing questions to the him as he was on a curiosity voyage and the director general without getting exasperated he was answering Colonel’s doubts. Tara was disappointed as there wasn’t any change so she came out of the lab room removing her hazmat suit and informed about the situation to the director general.” Don’t worry about the initial failure dear. We can surely find the medicine for this virus using your father’s thesis”, said the director general and it motivated Tara to out much more effort into the experiment thrismart work and hard work.He also insisted her to think innovatively from the past incidents. She was keeping on thinking about the incidents and she decided to increase the medicinal plants liquid drop count expecting some changes in the reaction and she started to increase the drop count. After pouring again she waited for half an hour to identify any changes happening or not but still there wasn’t any change. Tara gave up the research work and she started crying sitting inside the lab room. Even though the director general motivated her, the motivation didn’t last for even half an hour.For few minutes no one noticed Tara crying. And after few minutes the little boy started barking at Tara loudly and that made Van der Rossov to look at her. The moment when Van der Rossov saw Tara crying he ran towards the lab room and he tapped the door and asked Tara that why he was crying. Hearing the tapping sound Michael and Gary Kristen also joined Van der Rossov to convince Tara for the failure of experiment but colonel Henry Williams wasn’t bothered about Tara crying instead he looked after the director general to help him on whatever the things he asked him to do so now. Tara then she came out of the lab room and she said to the director general that she increased the pouring of drops of the plants liquid into the blood sample and still she couldn’t find any changes happening in the slide.                                                                                                         33 “Don’t worry my child. Let me think for a while “, said the director general.Tara then she went and sat in one corner after closing the lab door. Colonel Henry Williams couldn’t control his curiosity in asking doubts so he decided to ask questions that came in his mind. “Tell me about the way you think to innovate a medicine”, asked colonel Henry Williams.” Can you please shut up your mouth for a while “, replied the director general and it surprised Colonel Henry Williams so he was upset and he said,” don’t speak to me like this orelse you will face unnecessary consequences”. Gary Kristen didn’t want that to happen so he convinced Colonel Henry Williams by explaining the situation they were undergoing.Then Colonel Henry Williams calmed down. The director general was keeping on thinking about the method to find the solution by closing his eyes. And after few minutes the director general came up with an idea and he called Tara.Tara then she came out the lab and met director general and asked,” what sir?”.” I have found a solution for this process”, said the director general and the words boosted confidence in Tara and she asked about the idea. The director general was about to convey his idea but at that time the main door of the Hawkins lab suddenly blasted and everyone inside the lab fell down due to the sudden huge vibration.After the blast the room was completely filled by the smoke and get couldn’t see anyone who was near by..Van der Rossov fell down dizzied. After  few seconds the smoke was cleared and they saw the commander and the soldiers who were pointing the guns on them.Since the director general couldn’t see he was randomly asking” what happened, what happened. Is anyone near me”. Raise your hands everyone”, said Henry Nicholas. Gary Kristen, Michael and Tara stood up and others were finding it difficult even to look at them.After few seconds, Colonel Henry Williams somehow he managed to stand and then he looked at the commander Henry Nicholas and asked “who are you?”. Henry Nicholas was shocked and then he dropped his g*n and he ordered the soldiers to hold the fire.” What are you doing here”, asked Henry Nicholas.” I’m with these people after the enemies attacked our army headquarters”, replied Colonel Henry Williams.” Ok Then explain me what you people are doing herr”, aksed Henry Nicholas.” This is a research lab and the person who is over there is the director general of this lab. He is in a project to find the medicine for this virus along with that little girl”, explained Colonel Henry Williams. Henry Nicholas then he asked Tara, Michael and Gary Kristen to our hands down.Then by looking at Michael and Gary Kristen, Henry Nicholas asked “who are these two “, to Colonel Henry Williams. Before Henry Williams answering army chief, Michael and Gary Kristen came forward to introduce themselves.” Sir I’m an FBI agent”, said Michael.” Sir I’m a robotics professor”, said Gary Kristen.While they were answering, Van der Rossov was out of his dizziness and he was struggling to get up. Seeing that Colonel Henry Williams helped Van der Rossov to sit on a chair and he asked,” are you OK?”.” Yes I’m fine”, replied Van der Rossov and he saw Henry Nicholas and the soldiers and then he asked to Colonel Henry Williams,” is this the way how your friends enter into a place. I’m feeling nervous looking at your friends”. “Are they my friends”, asked colonel Henry Williams. The commander was confused after hearing that and he didn’t know why colonel Henry Williams was asking such a question as he didn’t knew he lost his old memories after the tragedy that took place in the army headquarters.Gary Kristen then he asked the commander to come along with him to explain the things that happened before.” Sir I want to speak to privately”, said Gary Kristen and Henry Nicholas also accepted his request and he went along with him to know what was happened.Henry Nicholas ordered the soldiers to take cover by going outside of the Hawkins lab.Then he went along with Gary Kristen to hear what he was about to tell.” You have got two minutes to explain me everything. Tell me the ones that which is necessary for me to know from the past incidents”, said the commander.” Sir due to a zombie the tragedy occurred in the army headquarters and we faced attacks everywhere a day ago.In that incident our colonel Henry Williams got hit on his medulla oblongata region and he lost his old memories and the director general of this Hawkins lab Dr.Adam Glenn almost lost his vision. Then we were chased by a monster and luckily we escaped from the monster and we are here now”, explained Gary Kristen in a low voice because he didn’t want Henry Williams to know about his memory loss.” Oh my god.Colonel Henry Williams lost his old memories?”, the commander asked doubtfully.” Yes sir that’s why he asked whether you are all his friends. Even he asked who are you initially when you entered this lab I don’t know whether you notice that”, explained Gary Kristen.And for each and every word while Gary Kristen was explaining he was looking colonel Henry Williams as he doesn’t want him to know because if he comes to know what actually happened then they might be in trouble. Henry Nicholas then he decided to inform about this situation to the President and then he took his communication device and he connected to the President’s place but since the signals were weak he couldn’t communicate. Since Gary Kristen spoke to Henry Nicholas privately that made Henry Williams have doubt on both of them as well as he was curious to know about what they spoke. So the colonel went near Gary Kristen and he asked,”what did you tell him”. “I informed him about the monster”, said Gary Kristen.” That’s fine but why did you called him alone to inform that. Everybody who is here knows about the monster then why you need him alone”, questioned Henry Williams.” I thought if I tell about the monster when the soldiers were here they would have got panicked. That’s why I wanted the commander alone”, answered Gary Kristen. After hearing that Colonel Henry Williams cleared his doubts.” Is everything Ok. Could anyone answer me? Please tell what’s going on”, said the director general. Then the colonel went near him and he replied,” everyone is fine here. Nothing to worry”. Meanwhile Henry Nicholas was keep on trying to connect the President’s office using the satellite phone and he said he wanted to inform about the situation to the President. After few seconds President came in the line and he asked,” what is happening? Commander”. “Sir our whirlybird was attacked by a monster and our soldiers in the helicopter are no more”, informed Henry Nicholas.” What a monster”, doubtfully asked the President.” Yes sir.We received the information about the monster from the from the people who were there in the Hawkins lab”, said Henry Nicholas.” Are you in the Hawkins lab.Is the director general alive”, asked the President.” Yes sir the director general is alive and he is in a process for finding the medicine along with a girl”, replied Henry Nicholas.” That seems to be great”, said the President.” Sir I would like to tell you one more important thing”, said Henry Nicholas.” Go ahead Henry Nicholas”, said the President.” Sir Colonel Henry Williams is in the Hawkins lab.He escaped from the military headquarters after the tragedy along with few people”, informed Henry Nicholas.”Thank god we were searching for both of them and both of them are in the same place. Give the phone to the colonel”, said the President.” No sir. Now it’s not the time to speak to him because of his condition”, replied Henry Nicholas.”Why what happened?” questioned the President.” Sir Colonel Henry Williams got injured in his head and he lost his old memories after the tragedy that happened in the army headquarters.He even couldn’t remember me”, explained Henry Nicholas about Henry Williams’s condition.The President felt sad for him and he took sometime before ordering Henry Nicholas what to do next. After thinking for a while the President ordered, “Henry Nicholas you stick to the plan and no need to change your plan because of this. You start marching towards the capital of the state. Let them do their research work and find medicines. I don’t have hope on them so no need to provide any security forces for them.You just move along with our soldiers.Let them take care of themselves”.  “Sure sir we will stick to our plan “, said Henry Nicholas and he cut the call.” Ok, Colonel and others we are leaving this lab and you may carry with your works”, said Henry Nicholas and he started moving out.” Wait sir “, said Gary Kristen. The commander turned back and looked at Gary Kristen and he asked,”What do you want?”.” Sir we are in need of guns and grenades to protect us from the monster.Without guns it will be difficult for us to fight the monster”, answered Gary Kristen.” What I’m supposed to do now”, asked the commander.” We request you to provide us a g*n”said Gary Kristen.” Yes we are in need of g*n”, Colonel Henry Williams also asked the commander.” Ok in what way can I trust you that if I give you a g*n and you won’t use it against me for any purpose”, asked Henry Nicholas.” Sir I promise you no such unnecessary sequences will happen. Please trust my words we are in the end now”, replied Gary Kristen.” But I have a doubt. If we didn’t come here you wouldn’t have any guns or grenades right. You people would have continued working like this but why you are in need of g*n “, asked Henry Nicholas. His doubt made them furious but they didn’t show that to him.” Sir before you came here we had the doors closed and we used that doors as our shield to protect us from the zombies and monsters but now your team has blasted that door and we don’t have anything to protect is from the threats.That’s why I’m asking for a g*n”, said Gary Kristen and the commander felt his reasons were solid.The commander then he called one of his soldiers and asked him to bring the M16 rifle with M203 grenade launcher and give it to Gary Kristen. After Gary Kristen received the g*n the commander taught him how to use the g*n and then he gave a communicating device as well and he informed him that if they face any threats then use this communication device to contact him  so that he could help them.                                                                                      34 Gary felt happy for that and Henry Nicholas left the place along with his soldiers. Gary Kristen sat down having the g*n and the satellite phone and Colonel Henry Williams got the satellite phone and he was looking the front and back of the phone to know what were all the options available in the phone. The monster was inside the cave taking a lot of time to recover from the injury. After few minutes the monster felt hungry and at that time it thought of hunting for animals so it decided to come out of the cave But it started raining suddenly and that made the monster so very angry and it started roaring loudly due to the pain and hunger as well. After few minutes in the Hawkins lab Tara went near the director general and she asked,” sir you said me that you got an idea for solving the problem but after that the soldiers came her created unnecessary situations. Could you tell me now sir”.” Yes my dear. We have to test the blood sample by pouring the plants liquid along with the water. Why I’m asking you to mix the water is , the monster ran away when it rained. So having that concept in my mind I took this decision”, said the director general.” That sounds great sir”, replied Tara.” Oh my dear. Now I want you to go back to the lab room and start our experiment with the new idea”, said the director general and then Tara went inside the lab room. She wore the suit and she began her experiment by taking the slide. Then she put a drop of a blood then a drop of plants liquid and then a drop of water. After all this she observed the slides under microscope. She didn’t find any changes happening.She then waited for around ten minutes but still she couldn’t find any changes even now.She lost hope and was worried about their approval. The director general asked”, what happened”, sitting outside the lab room and he was raising his voice.Tara didn’t reply to Adam Glenn.She put her head down and was saying sorry to hear dad in her mind as she couldn’t be successful in finding the medicine like Zhivago. Colonel Henry Williams saw Tara putting her head down and he understood that the experiment went failed. “Sir I think your new idea didn’t work. She is having a dull face and sitting aside from the slide outing her head down. I think she lost her hope “, said Henry Williams to the director general and then director general started laughing for that because he wanted Tara to know that only failures will lead to identifying several perspectives for solving a problem. And it may lead to greater success than they expect and he strongly believes in that. “Tara come here my dear”, called the director general but Tara couldn’t hear that as the labs doors were closed. Then colonel Henry Williams informed Tara that the director general was calling her. She then came out of the lab room with a dull face and stood near the director general and he gave a gentle touch on her shoulders. Gary Kristen and Michael decided to go out to get some fresh air. Van der Rossov was playing with the little biy. Tara felt that everyone were relaxed because they have high hopes on her and that made Tara to put under pressure herself.” I’m sorry Tara”, said the director general. Tara was confused when she heard Adam Glenn apologizing her and she asked, “why are you apologizing to me”.” I’m helpless now. I couldn’t do anything when you are suffering now”, said the director general and he began to cry.” Don’t worry about that sir. Let me try again”, said Tara and she took a long deep breath. Now she went inside the lab room and checked the slide.Surprisingly, she could find the virus disappearing. She then repeated the same process and waited for more than then minutes she found the viruses disappearing. She then did it on the bear's blood and she could find the viruses disappearing within seconds.” Yes”, Tara shouted. Colonel Henry Williams was looking at Tara and he found her happy. Then he informed that to the director general. Director General stopped worrying and then he eagerly waited for Tara to come out of the lab room and tell him what has happened. After few minutes Tara came out of the room and she ran towards the director general and she hugged him. “Sir we did it “, said Tara.” What happened Tara? Could you explain me about that “, asked the director general.” Sir your plan has worked out. The viruses started disappearing after ten minutes in Jordan’s bbood sample and within few seconds in the bear’s blood sample. So now if we get more medicinal plants and more amount of water we could destroy the viruses completely in our state” said Tara and she was jumping up and down with lot of joy. “Run,run “, shouted Gary Kristen and Michael.” Who is shouting like this”, asked the director general. Tara didn’t reply to the director general as she was confused seeing Gary Kristen and Michael.” Everybody run “, this time both of them shouted even louder.” Why are you shouting”, asked Van der Rossov but Michael came running fastwr towards Van der Rossov and he holded the old man’s hands and made him to run along with him because the zombies were chasing him. Gary Kristen had g*n in his hand but still he didn’t have the confidence that she would take all the zombies down. So he decided to make them all safe and then fight with the zombies. Tara took the director general along with her and she went inside the lab room and she closed the door. Seeing the zombies she was afraid so that she closed the door. Seeing the zombies she was afraid so that she had heavy breathes. Gary Kristen carried the little boy along with him. Michael and Van der Rossov went inside the equipments room and they closed the door. Since he door was made up of heavy metal the zombies couldn’t break it. Gary Kristen ran inside the rest room and there wasn’t exit there. The zombies entered the rest room. Gary Kristen opened one of the bathroom’s doors and he put the little boy inside and closed the door. He did that because he can’t fight the zombies having the little boy along with. There were more than twenty zombies and Gary Kristen had only ten bullets in the g*n. For a moment Gary Kristen thought of firing all the ten bullets on the zombies but she wasn’t had any plans to fight the remaining battles. He looked around everywhere inside the rest room but he couldn’t find any things that could be used as a weapon. The little boy started barking. The zombies were nearing Gary Kristen. Gary Kristen’s hands started shivering and he couldn’t am properly. Without his control Gary Kristen unknowingly he pulled the trigger and the bullet hit a pipe in the restroom and the pipe got broken and the water inside the pipe started sprinkling. When the water fell on the zombies it felt uncomfortable because they were sensitive to the water and thereafter he zombies didn’t take a step forward towards Gary Kristen. Seeing the way zombies reacted when the water fell on them Gary Kristen understood that they were sensitive to water and then he started firing the water pipes. Because of this every zombie started running out of the rest room. Tara was inside the rest room since the zombies were inside the rest room along with Gary Kristen. After few seconds Tara was surprised to see as the zombies were running out of the rest room without getting hurt. All the zombies were running and this time Gary Kristen was chasing the zombies. Gary Kristen now he had five bullets in the g*n and he fired all the five bullets and killed five zombies. The remaining zombies just ran away. Gary Kristen then he threw the g*n away after firing the bullets and he took a water bottle that was kept in a nearby table and he opened the cap and sat on the table thinking that the remaining zombies might come back to attack but luckily none returned as every zombie ran into the forest. Seeing the confidence level of Gary Kristen’s sitting posture on the table. Tara now she felt secured to come out of the lab room along with the director general. “What was that noise”, asked the director general to Tara.” The zombies were chasing everyone sir. So we went inside the room and locked the door. Gary Kristen only saved us from those zombies”, replied Tara.” Is all are safe”, asked the director general.” Yes sir. Everyone are safe”, replied Tara and Michael and Van der Rossov came out of their room. Gary Kristen asked Michael to bring the little boy from the bathroom to him. After few minutes colonel Henry Williams came out if the room and saw everyone standing together from the upstairs. So he decided to come down and join them. “What did you do”, asked Van der Rossov eagerly.” I broke the pipes and water splashed everywhere. Water is sensitive to the types of zombies. So they ran away and I took advantage of that”, answered Gary Kristen and at that time Michael gave the little boy to him. “We should clear the dead zombies”, said Michael and he himself took the initiative to do what he said. Van der Rossov and Colonel Henry Williams also joined along with Michael to clear the dead zombies.                                                                                                        35 “What we are going to do next”, asked Tara to Gary Kristen. “Get ready for the battle”, replied Gary Kristen. “Are you sure whether the zombies will come back now”, asked Tara. “Just a feeling”, answered Gary Kristen. “Come on Tara we should work on the preparation of the medicine. I think tough times are ahead”, said the director general. “You go and continue your research work”, said Gary Kristen and he was mentally preparing for the battle with the zombies and the monsters. Tara and the director general were completely focused on their research work. The dead zombies were thrown out of the Hawkins lab. Gary Kristen then he gave the little boy to Van der Rossov and asked him to take care of him. “Michael and Colonel Henry Williams, we have to plan for a battle with the zombies and the monsters”, said Gary Kristen. “But we can’t fight those monsters”, said Michael. “May I know the reason”, asked Gary Kristen. ”Do you remember the first time when we faced the monster it turned invisible”, said Michael. Colonel Henry Williams asked, “Do the monster have the ability to invisible? I’m really afraid now”. “I think it would be better if you communicate with the soldiers who came here”, said Van der Rossov. “Yes, you could call my friends for help”, said Colonel Henry Williams. Gary Kristen then he took the satellite phone and he contacted Henry Nicholas. “This is Gary Kristen from the Hawkins lab, do you copy”, said Gary Kristen. “This is Army Chief Henry Nicholas, sir we are in need of your help”, said Gary Kristen. “What do you want me to do”, asked Henry Nicollas. “Sir I’m in need of your entire team”, said Gary Kristen. “Shut up your mouth you i***t”, scolded Henry Nicollas. “Sir please consider this”, asked Gary Kristen. “Why do you need all of us”, asked Henry Nicholas. “Sir, we are planning for a battle against the zombies and the monsters”, answered Gary Kristen. “Are you kidding me? We trained soldiers are finding it difficult to face those zombies and you being the professor giving me an idea for a battle”, asked Henry Nicholas. Colonel Henry Williams then he got the satellite phone from Gary Kristen and he spoke to Henry Nicollas. “Sir, we have a plan to execute and believe me surely it will work undoubtedly said Colonel Henry Williams. “Who is this on the line? I wouldn’t recognize your voice”, said Henry Nicholas and he were staring at the satellite phone with lot of anger. “I’m your friend Colonel Henry Williams”. Henry Nicollas took a long deep breath and then he communicated back. “Yes, tell me about your plan”, asked Nicollas. “We have found that the zombies doesn’t like water so we have decided to use the water as a weapon to fight the battle and the medicine is also on the preparing process to cure this virus outbreak”, said Colonel Henry Williams. “Ok, then go and find more water. Why do you need us”, asked Henry Nicollas. “We could manage fighting the zombies with water but can’t take risk fighting the monster. We are out of bullets now. So we need the weapons support from you to fight the battle”, replied Colonel Henry Williams. “For what reason you fired the bullet, Is there any problem”, asked Henry Nicollas. “Yes sir, few minutes ago zombies entered the lab but our teammate Gary Kristen shot them us and saved us”, replied Colonel Henry Williams. “You should have said this at the beginning so that I wouldn’t have argued till now. Be safe there. Let me come with my team and protect you people. That will be my privilege”, said Henry Nicollas and he made everyone happy. But deep inside his mind he knew that if he didn’t follow the order of the president he might be facing unnecessary consequences in the future. But as of now he wasn’t bothered about that. “Soldiers we are going back to the Hawkins lab. We are reported about the zombies attack over there. They are in need of our help. Let’s move,” said Henry Nicholas and they started moving towards Hawking’s lab. Now Gary Kristen asked everyone to go inside a nearby room and he arranged a round table for the plan. After arranging, Gary Kristen asked everyone to give their inputs for the battle. “I’m worried about what we are going to do when the monster turns invisible”, said Van der Rossov. “Water is the solution for that because last time when monster turned invisible, the rain made the monster to lose its invisible characteristics. So we must use water as the first priority weapon in this battle”, replied Gary Kristen. “But where do we go for lot of water”, asked Michael. “That’s a good question. We have to fight the zombies or monsters near the river side”, said Gary Kristen. “But, for that we have to walk a lot of distance into the wood. Will it be safe to go there? This is my biggest doubt”, said Van der Rossov in a low voice. “Don’t be afraid. The greatness is in the other side of the fear”, said Gary Kristen and it motivated everyone. “The soldiers are also coming with us, so nothing to get panicked”, said Colonel Henry Williams. “We will be travelling towards the north once Tara and the director general complete their research work”, said Gary Kristen. “Is that the only directions to reach the river but the north side is safer and it takes only few minutes to reach there. But we have to cross a huge barren land before reaching the river”, said Gary Kristen. Meanwhile, the monster completely recovered from the injury and it came out of the cave for hunting. “I have a very few big doubts”, asked Van der Rossov. “Yes ask me”, replied Gary Kristen. “Is there only one monster or? “, Van der Rossov paused while speaking, expecting for an answer from Gary Kristen. “Well nobody knows that”, answered Gary Kristen. Zhivago and Tara killed a virus affected bear I don’t know how many are left like that to be killed”, said Van der Rossov. “Ok, when Tara comes after completing her work let us ask about how the virus reacts with the animals. I heard them speaking about virus reacting with the plants and animals”, replied Gary Kristen. “But when are we leaving this lab asked Michael. “I think we will be leaving when Tara and the director general finds the medicine”, said Colonel Henry Williams. “Not only that your friends should also arrive this lab. Only then we can leave this pace”, said Van der Rossov. “Yes you are logical, but don’t know how long will it take. By the way I’m hungry. Can anyone provide me some food”, asked Colonel Henry Williams. “Let me search “, said Michael and he was roaming inside the lab to find food. After few minutes of searching, Michael got some cookies and chocolates and five pieces of bread under a table in a room. “I got some food to eat”, said Michael. Colonel Henry Williams came running towards Michael and he saw what he was having. Looking at the cookies, chocolates and breads he was disappointed because he was expecting for something delicious like a lobster fry. Van der Rossov asked him to eat what was available there and not to expect anything until the situation becomes normal. Colonel Henry Williams accepted that with a half minded and he ate. Tara then came out of the lab room. The director general was sitting outside the lab and he was meditating. Since Tara came out, Gary Kristen ran towards her and said “Tara be ready with the medicines. We are going out once the soldiers reach our lab”. “Where are we going”, asked Tara. “No more hide and seeks. We are going to fight against the zombies and the monsters near the riverside”, replied Gary Kristen and that made Tara speechless. She then asked, “Why do we need this battle now.  I can’t assure you that this medicine will completely eradicate the virus in the blood”. “Why you are not confident”, asked Gary Kristen. “We humans have more than 6-8 liters of blood, and the level differs to each and every animal. So we are in need of more medicinal plants and water”, replied Tara. “That’s why we are going to the Truckee river now to face the battle”, said Gary Kristen. “It’s fine. But where will you go for the medicinal plants. We are in need of them in huge numbers”, answered Tara. Gary Kristen didn’t have any word for that. He stood speechless. “I have an idea for that”, said Van der Rossov who was standing behind Gary Kristen. “Explain please”, said Tara. “We should go back into the woods to find the medicinal plants along with our soldiers. Even if the monster comes against us we can kill it easily”, said Van der Rossov. “What if the monster attacks us changing into invisible”, asked Tara. “Use the water my dear”, said Van der Rossov. Tara was convinced with that answered and she was ready to go by their decision. “I have another doubt”, said Gary Kristen. Tara looked at him. “That day you were speaking about the virus reacting with plants and animals. Can you tell me what it does in the animals”, asked Gary Kristen. “It leads the genes to undergo mutation that might lead to having superpowers in the animals. It also makes them feel hungry for the entire day”, answered Tara and Gary Kristen was afraid imagining what would they do if more such monsters come in their way. At this time, the Army chief reached the Hawkins lab with his soldiers and he saw the thrown dead bodies outside the labs gate. Then he went inside the lab and met everyone and asked what they were supposed to do now. “We need more water sir. The zombies and the monsters don’t like water so we are going to use that as an additional weapon along with your guns. Is it possible for you to arrange more water”, asked Gary Kristen. “Why do you need water as an additional weapon when we have the guns and grenades?”, asked the commander.                                                                                          36 Zombies and the monsters don’t like guns and grenades right?” asked Henry Nicholas. “Yes sir. But the monsters are capable of turning invisible. Only water can make them visible if it turns invisible. Our research team found that”, said Gary Kristen. Henry Nicholas was keep on thinking. “Come on my friend, you can do that”, said Colonel Henry William. Henry Nicholas decided it would be better if the second set of soldiers carry water with them and land on their geographical location. Henry Nicholas then he communicated with the military basement and he explained the situation and he said that they have a change in their plan. Everyone accepted that and the soldiers were planned to land on the Hawkins lab now. “Get ready for the battle”, said Henry Nicholas and he smiled at everyone. Tara and the director general came out of their experiment lab and they said that they were ready to move now. “Fine, we will now start our mission”, said Henry Nicholas and he went outside of the lab and ordered the soldiers to get inside this truck except two soliders because he wanted them to travel along with Gary Kristen and his team. “Sir, our truck’s back tyre is punctured. We can’t drive even for a mile”, said Gray Kristen to Henry Nicholas. “Don’t worry my friend. We have an extra tyre to fit in your truck”, replied Henry Nicholas and his soldiers replaced the damaged tyre with a new one. Gary Kristen’s team and Henry Nicholas's team both began their journey to the woods from the Hawkins lab at the same time. “We have to be observing each and every place around us while travelling. We might not identify the monster if it is invisible”, said Gary Kristen to all of his team members. They were moving in the truck slow and silently looking around everywhere. Henry Nicholas then communicated with Gary Kristen enquiring about the distance and Gary Kristen said that it will take around an hour if they go in the same speed. Henry Nicholas then ordered his truck driver to increase the speed as he wants to reach the destination as soon as possible considering the sunset. After few minutes, they reached the place from where they have to walk further inside the woods so everybody got down from the truck and started moving inside the woods to the place where they found the medicinal plants. Tara’s heart beat was increasing because they were going to the place where the monster killed her father just a day ago. After few hours of travel they reached the road that connects to the place where the medicinal plants were available. Henry Nicholas got down from the truck and he was looking around for movements. “It’s clear here get down “, ordered Henry Nicholas. Then the soldiers got down from the truck and they took positions. The commander didn’t want Tara and her team to get down until they feel the location was safe. They took around five to ten minutes to look around the location. “It’s completely safe now you all can get down from the truck”, said Henry Nicholas. Then Tara and her team got down from the truck and they started moving inside the forest. The boots of the soldiers made sound when they placed their legs on the dry leaves fallen there. Tara was afraid for that sound because she thought the zombies or the monster might attack them at anytime. They moved deep inside the woods and reached a place quarter mile away from where the medicinal plants were available. “I think it would be better if Tara stays here”, said Gary Kristen to the commander. Tara stared at him and the commander was confused to hear that.” Why you don’t want her to come”, questioned Henry Nicholas.” I’m afraid”, replied Gary Kristen.” Could you elaborate me”, asked Henry Nicholas on behalf of Tara” Zhivago”, said Gary Kristen and his heart beat started to raise.” What happened to you get him some water”, said Henry Nicholas. A soldier gave Gary Kristen a bottle of water and asked him to drink. The commander looked around for the reason why he was taking fast breath. Gary Kristen was staring at a place and seeing him staring Tara turned that side and she found his dad Zhivago’s half eaten body was struck inside the branches of a tree. Tara after seeing that she was dizzied and all others were shocked. The commander was shocked.” Soldiers take positions”, ordered the commander as he was feared for the monster. But their main problem was they couldn’t see the monster if it turns invisible. They heard some unusual noise and Van der Rossov said,”It’s the monster”. The soldiers then looked around for the monster. Michael took the g*n from Gary Kristen. Colonel Henry Williams was carrying for Tara so he got the water bottle from Gary Kristen and he sprinkled the water on Tara’s face and made her to wake up. Colonel Henry Williams got an idea from that and he said to everyone, “the water”. “What are you blabbering”, the commander got irritated.” No he is right. The water”, said Van der Rossov.” What purpose does the water have to do with”, asked the commander. Gary Kristen then he got the water bottle from Henry Williams and he stood up boldly and shouted,” where are you?”. The commander still he couldn’t understand Gary Kristen then he threw the water bottle towards the half eaten dead body of Zhivago and the water turned the monster visible standing opposite to them when the bottle hit and splashed. The commander felt fear after a long time and he was speechless looking at the monster. The soldiers were waiting for the order of their commander but he was standing still and they were holding their fire. The monster took a bite from Zhivago’s dead body and that made Tara angry. The little boy started barking at the monster. The monster was nearing them. The commander was speechless so instead of him Colonel Henry Williams ordered the soldiers,” fire”. The bullets were triggered and it pierced the body of the monster everywhere. The commander then he regained his conscious and he smoked the bullets. The sound from the g*n made Tara to laugh at the monster and the monster was mourning in pain and the little boy ran away and got into the truck. After the continuous firing of bullets the monster was dead.                                                                                  37 “What kind of species is this”, asked the commander generally. “The werewolf has been affected by the virus and it mutated the genes of it and turned it into a completely different species and we don’t know what to call it”, replied Tara. “Thank god we killed it “, said Van der Rossov. “ Don’t think that we are safe “, said Tara.” Why you are saying that the monster is dead. No need to panic anymore”, said the commander. “The virus affects all kind of wild animals and we are not assured that how many such mutated wild animals are over us”, said Tara.” Yes she is right “, said Michael and that made everyone lose hope in winning the battle against the zombies and the monsters. “ I think we are in need of more weapons and arm power”, said colonel Henry Williams.” No first we have to go and get the medicinal plants as soon as possible”, said Adam Glenn. Everyone knew he was right so they started moving faster to the place where the medicinal plants were available. They reached the place within seconds and the soldiers were taking guards when Tara was collecting all types of medicinal plants. She was helped by Michael and Gary Kristen.The commander ordered the soldiers to fire randomly if they hear any unusual noise means. Tara was collecting the plants faster than anyone who was helping her. “How long will it take?”, the commander shouted as he was afraid that any monster might come along their way. Tara collected everything that was there and she said that they have to go to the Hawkins lab now. But the commander refused and he said,” no more going back anywhere. We are moving forward and no change in that”. Tara and the director general were worried and they both asked,” why did you allow us to take these medicinal plants till now. What’s the use in it if we didn’t go back to the Hawkins lab”.” Now you think of some other option. Don’t speak about it to me anymore”, said the commander and she started leaking further.” Tara throw away what you have collected”, said the director general and he lost hope about the survival.They were depressed about the way the commander spoke to them.”Alright, now let us execute a plan for the battle.I’m not interested in manufacturing the medicine for curing this virus rather we go against them.Is that clear”, said the commander,Henry Nicholas.”We are not ready to come along with you”, Tara said boldly because of the commander’s behavior.”Let me clearly explain you one thing we won’t survive if we spend our time in finding the medicine.I’m the commander and I want everyone to obey my orders”, said Henry Nicholas ruthlessly. “Well we are not wiling to come along with you”, said Tara and she started walking back.”Sir she is leaving us.If she gets killed by the monster or the zombies then we are answerable to the President”, said a soldier.”Let her go.I won’t inform about her to the President.Let her behave on the way how she wanted to do so”, said Henry Nicholas.”Then we are going along with her”, said Colonel Henry Williams and he started following Tara.”Take me along with you colonel”, said the director general, Adam Glenn.”We don’t trust you anymore commander.We will take care of our lives.Thanks for the g*n anyways”, said Gary Kristen and he started to walk.Michael and Van der Rossov also joined them.”Only in my absence they will know the value about me”, said the commander to himself.”Tara, how we are going to the Hawkins lab?” questioned Gary Kristen and Tara was walking without answering him as she completely focused on her thoughts about the medicine.”Tara answer me”, said Gary Kristen and Tara turned back and saw him.”Why are you looking at me ike this”, asked Gary Kristen.”We will go there in the truck”, answered Tara.”Now it is not possible Tara because the keys are with the soldier”, said Gary Kristen. “Well then we go by walk”, replied Tara and she continued walking.”Is she gone mad?”, asked Van der Rossov generally and Michael came up with a reply,”are you willing to go along with the commander?”.”No I’m not scolding her.She is taking decisions out of anger and that leads only to the failure conclusions.Hope you understand that’, said Van der Rossov .”Oh come on old man.Don’t bring in your philosophical thoughts here.We can’t go with them and fight against the monsters.They may use us as a tarp to kill the monsters and it won’t be a guaranteed positive result”, said Michael and he hoped that Van der Rossov would stop his philosophical speech.”Ok I’m not bothered anymore.Do as per your wish.Let us hope for the good”, said Van der Rossov and he was walking silently.”I doubt reaching the Hawkins lab”, said Colonel Henry Williams as he was afraid for the monster’s interference.”Shut up your mouth and walk you i***t”, replied Adam Glenn.”I warn you not to speak like that Mr.Adam Glenn.Don’t talk to me like that”, warned Colonel Henry Williams.”Well if you don’t open your mouth I will answer all your doubts”, replied Adam Glenn.”Ok then I wont speak unnecessarily”, promised Colonel Henry Williams.Gary Kristen realized that after the attack on colonel Henry William’s medualla oblongata not only he lost his old memories but his behavior also completely changed.When they reached near the truck,the little boy came running towards Gary Kristen wagging it’s tail.”Hey little boy I think you missed me a lot.Did anything happened to you”,Gary Kristen spoke with the little boy.The little boy was wagging it’s tail continuously.They ,then tried to start the truck without the keys but couldn’t do that.Michae went inside the truck to find something that would be useful for them.He was keep on searching for things but all that he could find was a jet lighter and a cigarette.Michael has the smoking habit so he took it for him and then he got down from the truck.”What did you find inside the truck”, asked Van der Rossov.”Nothing is there inside the truck”, replied Michael as he doesn’t want them to know that he has got a cigarette from the truck.They started to move.Tara was on the front leading the team and the director general was guided by coonel Henry Williams.At the end, Gary Kristen, Van der Rossov, Michael and the litte boy were following them.The climate was too hot and it made them to worry a lot.”I would have walked much more confident if it rains.No need to fear for the monster if it rains”, said Van der Rossov.”Yes you are right”, saidGary Kristen. “May I know how long will it take for us to reach the Hawkins lab if we walk like this”, asked Adam Glenn to colonel Henry Williams.”I’m not sure about that.Wait let me ask to Gary Kristen and let you know”, said Coonel Henry Williams.”Gary Kristen how long will it take for us to reach the Hawkins lab”, shouted Colonel Henry Williams because the distance between him and Gary Kristen was a bit far.”Why are you shouting for that”, shouted Gary Kristen.Tara stopped walking as she was exasperated because of their loud conversation. “What’s the problem if I ask you in a loud voice”, colonel Henry Williams raised his voice.”Don’t raise your voice”, replied Gary Kristen.”Could you please shut up”, shouted Tara.”Oh come on you young guns could you please converse politely.The way you speak loudly may invite the monster to our place”, said Van der Rossov.”Yes he is right.Please lower your volumes”, requested Adam Glenn.they heard an unusual sound.”Where is that sound from?”, asked Tara looking around everywhere from where she was standing.”I think it is the sound made by the strong wind”, replied Colonel Henry Williams to Tara.”I don’t think so it is the sound made by the wind”, said Tara.”The earth is vibrating can anyone feel that”, asked Van der Rossov generally.”Yes old man.The road is vibrating”, said Michael.The little boy started barking as it was afraid.”I think the little boy has found something”, said Gary Kristen.the unusual sound was keep on increasing.”What it is?” asked Michael.Everyone were silent.”Look for the direction of the sound”, said Van der Rossov .Since the director genera could not see things his ears were sharp so that he could hear much more better than everyone who around him.The little was jumping and stood behind Gary Kristen’s legs and Gary Kristen realized that the little boy could see the invisible monster standing opposite to them. “The monster”, said Gary Kristen.”What?” asked everyone. “The monster is standing right in front of us”, said Gary Kristen and he swallowed his saliva staring at the empty road.”How are you sure about that?” asked Colonel Henry Williams.”Just a feeling”, replied Gary Kristen.”Let me throw a stone then”, said Colonel Henry Williams and then he took a stone nearby and he threw at the empty road.The stone travelled a certain distance and it hit on something that which was not visible for tha n***d eyes for them and stone fell aside.Everyone got afraid and they realized it was the monster standing opposite to them which was invisible at that time.Since the stone hit that invisible monster it got angry and turned visible.It was an otter that which was affected by the virus and it’s genes got mutated and it turned into a gigantic size.”Oh my god”, said Colonel Henry Williams and he thought that it might attack him first as he was the one who threw the stone at the otter.”What should we do now?” asked Van der Rossov .No one replied as everyone were staring at the otter.”Only the god can save us”, said Gary Kristen. “Let me hande this”, said Tara boldly as she was ready to lose her life.Everyone were surprised after hearing Tara.Tara thought of  a thesis in her mind that if the animals that which were not harmful to the human beings won’t hurt the human beings even if the virus affects it.But she was not so sure about that because the human beings when they were affected by the virus they react in a dissimilar way.But still she tried to move near it thinking that it won’t hurt her.She raised her hand and touched the otter with lot of fear.She holded her breath while touching.”Tara what are you doing”,asked Gary Kristen.Tara paced her hand on the otter.Surprisingly the otter didn’t harm Tara.Tara after few seconds from touching the otter she opened her eyes and looked into the eyes of the otter.The otter was looking back at her.She gently smiled looking at the otter and that took away the fear from everyone.”Can anyone tell me what is happening?” asked Adam Glenn.”My god, Tara is touching the monster and it didn’t do anything injurious to her”, answered colonelHenry Williams to Adam Glenn.”What mammal is mutated?”, asked Adam Glenn.”I couldn’t understand your question”, replied Colonel Henry Williams.”It is an otter”, answered Gary Kristen to Adam Glenn’s question.”I’m confused why it is not hurting?” said Adam Glenn.”Oh so you wanted that monster to hurt Tara”, asked Colonel Henry Williams.”I didn’t mean in that way you idiot.I said I’m just confused”, said Adam Glenn. “Now what are we going to do now”, asked Van der Rossov.”Stick to our plan”, replied Gary Kristen.And he started walking across the otter.Then everyone followed him.The otter also followed them.”Gary Kristen just look behind, it is following us”, said Van der Rossov.”Let it come.As long as it doesn’t hurt us nothing to worry”, said Gary Kristen.                                                                                               38 Meanwhile the commander, Henry Nicholas and his team were searching for the soldiers. “Look after each and every move. We doesn’t know what is around us”, instructed Henry Nicholas and the soldiers were afraid for each and every move because of the invisible characteristics of the monster. They were almost near the Truckee river and their fear was about to vanish. After few minutes they reached the beds of the Truckee River. “Now it’s ok to feel good”, said the commander and they heard an unusual noise. “What sound it is”, the commander said generally. He thought it might be the sound of the monster that which was invisible to their eyes so he ordered them to open fire randomly. When they fired the bullet, it hit on the monster and it turned visible. It was an alligator that which turned into a monster. The commander was keep on firing the alligator and it started attacking back the soldiers. They couldn’t tackle the monster. The monster almost killed all the soldiers and only few were left. The commander and the soldiers who were alive started running back into the woods. Since the pace was quiet Gary Kristen and his team members heard the sounds of the guns firing. “What it would be”, asked Van der Rossov. ”The battle”, replied Colonel Henry Williams. “Move to the Hawkins lab as fast as possible”, said Gary Kristen and all they started running. The otter also ran along with them. “Fast, fast, fast”, said Michael. While they were running two mutated king cobras came by their way. The otter was ready to fight with the cobra whereas the other team members were stunned looking at that. Michael decided to divert the cobra and asked others to run towards the Hawkins lab and start their work as soon as possible. The otter fought with one of the cobra and Michael distracted the other cobra and he ran away towards the truck like an athlete. The cobra was chasing Michael. “Oh god please save me”, said Michael while running. Michael was clueless while running as he didn’t know what to do. The others were screaming and running. “Long will it take. Could anyone tell me”, asked Van der Rossov as he couldn’t run like others because of the age factor. After few seconds Van der Rossov fell down and his g**g members didn’t see that for a while. Then Gary Kristen turned and saw Van der Rossov had been fell down so he went and helped him to run along with them. “I can’t run anymore”, said Van der Rossov and he started crying. “Look old man, look at me. We are going to win this battle. We are on the end now. If we come over this and survived then we are the heroes”, said Gary Kristen and he motivated Van der Rossov to run along with him. Meanwhile the commander and the soldiers were scared to move now. The commander then communicated with the army headquarters and he informed about the situation. More whirlybirds were now on action. The missiles and Gatling guns were set in the whirlybirds and they started flying. The commander received the information that the troops would be in his geographical location within twenty minutes.  Till then they asked the commander to survive. The commander then asked the person in charge for the viewing of satellite maps to instruct him regarding the movements. Tara and her team members reached the Hawkins lab and they started their research work. Michael ran near the truck and he took an iron rod and he damaged the petrol tank of the truck. The cobra neared him and Michael managed to escape from its bite and then he took the jet lighter and threw it on the petrol that which was leaking from the army truck. The truck blasted and the cobra was near the truck and it also got fired. Michael took his cigarette and he showed it on the fire and he started smoking standing there seeing the cobra dying. The commander heard the blast and he saw the smoke caused by the blast. After few minutes the commander and the rest of the soldiers moved from there and they went near the Truckee river. Then the commander informed about the truck blast and their geographical location to the army headquarters. The President couldn’t breathe properly and he thought of dying if they lose this time. In the Hawkins lab Tara was half way from producing the medicine. The otter killed the cobra and it ran away towards the Truckee river. Gary Kristen thought of an idea that he got from the behavior of the otter. But he didn’t tell anyone about his plan but he decided to execute. He took the little boy along with him and he went to a corner. The commander was standing near the Truckee river along with the soldiers. After few seconds most of the mutated wild animals came near the river. The commander and the soldiers thought they were no more. “Be proud to die for your country”, said the commander and he dropped his weapon and stood there closing his eyes. The mutated wild animals were nearing the soldiers to eat them at that time the missiles were fired by the whirlybirds and it killed the monsters. A mutated werewolf turned invisible and it started to jump and attack the whirlybirds that were flying. The mutated werewolf then it stood opposite to the commander and it was about to kill them all. The soldiers loaded their g*n but at that time two mutated werewolves. They knew they can’t win the battle but still decided to fight dying. The moment the werewolves stepped forward the little boy which was infected by the virus came there. It turned into a gigantic structure and it was ready to fight the werewolves. Gary Kristen came there running as he was the person who did that for the little boy and he asked the soldiers not to fire the dog. He asked the soldiers to trigger bullets on the werewolves. The battle began and they could kill two of the werewolves but the last one turned invisible and it attacked the little boy. The little boy was about to die at that time a g*n loaded with the medicine was fired at the werewolf’s fighting position randomly by Tara and it made the werewolf turned visible and the little boy attacked the werewolf and the soldiers helped it to kill the mutated werewolf. Now the whirlybirds targeted the little boy but the commander ordered them not to fire but still he was afraid looking at the mutated little boy. Gary Kristen then he got the g*n from the commander and he called the little boy to look at him. “Hey little boy”, said Gary Kristen and it looked him, he then fired the bullet towards the sky and it ran away from that place as it understood what Gary Kristen conveyed it. Gary Kristen sat there and he regretted for turning the little boy into a different creature. Tara then with the help of the soldiers she used her medicine to cure the virus affected animals and humans.
