As they rushed by him, someone said, "Good, you're here."That accommodates everyone.We need to get out of here!Jake observed that everyone seemed to be using a side exit as he followed the motion.He tried to think of a small map of the area, which showed that this exit was closer to their cars than the front exit, so he trusted the group and went behind them.Francis had vanished from his view, but he had no idea if she was still at the car or somewhere else.Realizing that his group would have to wait outside until he could get to them, he pushed his way through the crowd of people heading out the door.When he burst through the door, he saw that a group was waiting by his car.He pressed the keychain's unlock button until the appropriate lights flashed.He was so focused that he almost missed the fact that a woman had stopped directly in front of him before almost running into her."Who are you?!"He demanded, but when he saw where she was looking, he stopped."Someone is up there!"She ye

Rico grumbled, "Yeah, well, it sure seemed like an attack."I mean, there were at least some.One hundred?Lisa countered, "A couple dozen at most.""Man, there were many more.They swept through the station.They were all over.Well, it's not much of a station.Additionally, we were almost the only ones present at the time.“So you guys battled your way through the creatures and eventually met up with the rest of the group?”In an effort to end the argument before it got too out of hand, Jake mumbled.Rico responded, "Nah man, we didn't meet the rest of these people until a few days ago."In the beginning, the surviving pigs decided that no matter what, they couldn't let people like us roam free.They were going to try to take us to a different, less crowded station.However, we never made it.Rico's voice suddenly stopped, and he stopped speaking.He turned to his right and looked out the window to the countryside passing by outside the car.The young man caught Jake's curious eye.He appeared t

Jake's expression changed to one of doubt.He commented, "You don't really look that old."Which wars have you participated in?"It's not important!"The man objected, but he became silent, pulling back, and muttering something to himself about how different his day had been.Jay introduced himself by saying, "This is Stephen, by the way," not realizing that Jake already knew who he was.And Kelly is that."He made a motion across the vehicle with one thumb.Kira is the redhead who is attempting to avoid attention.Without really looking at them, Kira said, simply, "Hey."Richard stood straight and let out a shrill whistle as he returned to the first vehicle.Let's get started bringing it in, he called, waving his arms in front of himself as if he were calling out to everyone.Before nightfall, we still have a long way to go.The group turned and observed as individuals began to emerge from the woods and return to the cars.Stephan said, "Yes, let's get going," and he opened the door to the bac

Jake responded, "I... I guess I don't really know."It's just that something doesn't seem right.I mean, if this outbreak is as severe as it appears to be, if this is a global pandemic and we are a small group of human survivors on a planet of zombies, then there must be somewhere between seven and eight billion zombies roaming the surface of the Earth.There probably aren't more than a billion survivors left, even if other groups of survivors are like us.Even so, an overwhelming number of undead would remain.Why then aren't we encountering any?Why don't some of them get stuck in some of the cars we're passing or just wander the roads and forests aimlessly?"Are you implying that you want to encounter more zombies?"Jay inquired, puzzled.“What?No!Nothing comparable.I simply meant that it's odd.That's it.I mean, the numbers, I don't think you understand.Have you ever seen a zombie movie?In the hope of surviving the end of the world, the survivors all barricade themselves into a shopping ma

Long periods of silence followed.Jake considered protesting, but he received no responses.Jay then suddenly spoke up and came forward.I can assist you with that!The young Japanese man suddenly felt a little out of place as everyone's attention turned to him.He mumbled, then calmed down after taking a deep breath.I can wait a little bit higher up on the field in Jake's car.We can drive away once Jake gets the creatures to the car and climbs in.They will probably follow us for some distance, but we could turn around and lose them.It won't take long.They don't move quickly.We'd easily lose them in the car.Jake responded, "I can't ask you to put yourself in danger."“Ha!”Jay laughed.I'll do the simple job.You are going to put yourself in danger.Devin said, "It's too risky," and he interrupted.It is not necessary.Francis suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, I say let him do it."Everyone paid attention to her.Well, why stop him if he wants to kill himself?In addition, we can always try Devin's method

The silver grew larger and the light became brighter, slicing its way through the room with terrifying precision until it reached every nook and cranny.The light actually came from the setting sun, which had already set behind the trees and was only weak.As a result, the large room appeared menacing, dark, and gloomy to the group standing outside looking in.However, in contrast to what it had been just a few moments earlier, it was now bright and alive.Richard, one of the group, said, "Yup, it's a warehouse."Devin's response was, "Told you."As the group entered, flashlights came on and the room was filled with beams of bright white light that crisscrossed the floors, walls, and ceilings.Richard continued, "This will be an excellent location for setting up a base camp."at the very least until we discover something superior.Jake stated, "You know, some of those things might be in the building, or at the very least on the base."Staying anywhere will be risky until we verify that every

The room appeared to be empty, at least of anything living or undead, as they walked around the rubble and debris, checking each aisle and every upturned table.There were what appeared to be dried blood splatters scattered about.It covered the walls, the floor, and even the ceiling at one point."Some kind of struggle?"Jay inquired,``You think the zombies got in and attacked some white coats who weren't expecting them?”“And then, when they left, kindly shut the door the majority of the way behind them?”Jake's response was incredulous.He was standing in the middle of the room, right next to one of the upturned tables, and he was shining his light all over the place like he was looking for a clue.I don't think so because of something.He turned to meet Jay's eye as he turned his flashlight down.To begin with, how would they have gained entry to a military base?The thought sent unwelcome thoughts through Jay's mind and down his spine, causing him to tremble.I have a negative impression

Around the side of the light source, a gun barrel that was roughly pointing in their general direction came into view.The dead, cold voice said, "That last one was a warning shot."I will absolutely not be missed this time.Now, who are these people and what are you doing here?Jake let out a long, exasperated sigh after exchanging glances with Jay.He said, "Well, shit."Richard sprayed his flashlight into the darkness as he pushed open the door to a different room and let the light slowly arc across the darkness.This room, like the other half-dozen or so he'd checked, had a few scattered chairs and other furniture, some desks and lab equipment, an open cabinet, and a lot of empty space—at least of anything living.He had anticipated finding it.As had been the case everywhere they had been for nearly a month, there had been absolutely no sign of life since they entered the building.He was tossing over like a huge wave that threatened to pull him under and drown him in its rage.
