Days passed before they started to see movement in the zombies again. Everyone was on edge as they saw more zombies start passing by, but the zombies never stopped and stared at the house like what happened before. No one was sure how to feel, and it was like they were walking on eggshells. It would be much easier to handle if the zombies just outright confronted them.Then they would at least be able to fight them without wondering what they were up to. Instead, they had to constantly keep watch to see when the zombies would decide to turn their attention to the house. Billy couldn't understand what the zombies were thinking, or rather, what the zombie user was thinking. The zombies shouldn't be able to think. They didn't have the brains or minds for it.That meant the zombie user had to be somehow controlling them, even from another city. Did they just give a generic command, or were they always in contact? If it was the former, what kind of command did they give? Did they simply te

Billy and Jacqueline landed silently on a rooftop out of sight of the survivors. They had both decided that appearing right in the middle of the group wouldn't be wise. While it would give them the element of surprise, it would put them in the thick of danger. There was a high chance the survivors would immediately react with lethal force at their appearance.Staring at the group from their vantage point, they were able to get a better look at them. Even though they had already seen the group through the camera feed, it was different seeing them with their own eyes. Out of the ten people, basically half were kids. It was odd seeing such a disparity. In a dangerous situation like the zombie apocalypse, it was easy for children to die."Who should we take out first?" Jacqueline whispered."We should deal with Joshua immediately since his mind reading would be a huge problem," Billy said.Unfortunately, the kids were in the middle of the adults. The group had probably done that to make s

"Jacqueline, we need to go," Billy calmly says.However, she didn't pay him any mind, as her eyes were stuck staring at the unmoving body. Jacqueline couldn't believe she had killed someone. She hadn't meant to. She had only wanted to stop the woman from helping out the other survivors. It was something she had to do because she didn't want to pull Billy down. Now she was a murderer.The very thought made her sick. Of course, she knew it was a possibility. Billy hadn't hidden the fact that they might have to kill other survivors, but it was different from actually doing it herself. Seeing that she wasn't responding, he sighed before shooting the body with his gun. Jacqueline flinched as the body jerked and stared at him in shock and confusion."She was still alive," he said as he helped her to her feet.Jacqueline immediately relaxed as the weight of being a murderer was lifted. She hadn't killed a person. Immediately, she felt guilty for being relieved that she hadn't killed someone

There was a glint in the elderly woman's eyes that Billy couldn't ignore. The old woman was perceptive as always. It was obvious who had the brains between the two elderly people, and Billy didn't need to say who it was. However, that didn't mean he was going to give in without a fight. He narrowed his eyes as he carefully considered his next words."I think I have an idea, but I don't want to say it without Jacqueline's permission," he said slowly.The elderly woman narrowed her eyes. Now he had thrown the ball into Jacqueline's court. If the old woman pushed him to speak, she would be disregarding Jacqueline's feelings on the matter. If Jacqueline refused to give permission and the elderly woman chose to listen to her, then she wouldn't be able to get her answers."Don't fight," Jacqueline said. "I'll talk."Billy frowned. That wasn't what he expected or wanted. He had been counting on her to stay quiet and ask everyone to leave her alone about the topic. Would she really tell them

Luckily, the elderly couple didn't seem to find anything and left him be for the time being. However, he wasn't foolish enough to believe that they were going to let it go that easily. As he trained Jacqueline, he didn't fail to notice how they would occasionally check up on them to see what they were up to. Of course, they passed it off as being curious about what they were doing.Billy, on the other hand, knew better. They were obviously trying to find clues about what they were hiding from the elderly couple. Jacqueline seemed to pick up on it too, as she was careful not to let anything slip. Whenever the elderly couple sprung a question, they were able to give a reasonable answer or deflect it to keep them from pushing.Eventually, things came to a head when Billy said, "I think you're good enough now. I can't teach any more without some first hand experience."The elderly man pounced and said, "You better not be thinking about going out. I know you said you've been training so yo
