The Plan

"Boss...." A man called from the door.

He was a bit old and wretched. His tooth seemed to be missing. His hair was also slight grey and his skin, so dull. He was part of the slaves they stored in the warehouse. But unlike any other slaves, he was free to move around because he did most dirty jobs for them and he's the master mind in executing most of their successful missions. Lee liked him for that. Though he was not part of Lee's men yet, he had always wanted to be among them one day. He's more than ready to do anything to win Lee's trust.

Lee just gave a blank but angry look, and he stepped in smiling.

"Boss, you shouldn't think too much about getting your golds." Lee's eyes cloaked in extreme anger as he said that.

"No boss. I didn't mean it that way. You see boss, they might be scared to go in there, but I have a plan for you."

His face suddenly straightened. He knew his plans were always a mind blowing one. This man had never come up with a plan that had failed.

"What plan?" He spoke, but his looks were blank.

"Boss, you know how much I've always respected you and always looked up to you. You know....."

"Will you just spit out what that damn plan is now." He ordered in fury, holding his collar tight and pointing a gun on his head.

"If you kill me now boss, how will you get those golds."

Lee finally let loose of his collar and dropped his hands by his sides. He needed this wretched man more than ever and he knew that very well.

"Speak up." Trying to hide his anger that was forcing its way up.

"But first boss, I also want you to do something for me." He was sounding mischievous.

Lee scoffed gazing at him with a blank expression on his face. This guy was really getting on his nerves now. This wasn't a time for favours. There is a more bigger work at hand and that's to get those golds no matter what. Nevertheless, he still have to listen to what the scumbag has to say.

"What's that?" He asked in so much irritation.

He laughed liking the sound of that question. "Let me be your right hand man." He spoke smiling.

This had been his dream all along. Not just to be one of his men, also to be the most trusted person he could even ask. To be his right hand man.

Lee stared at him and hit the gun on his head lightly. This man was unbelievable. He shot his right hand man and now be needed a new one. A smarter one and he fitted for the perfect candidate. But now, he had no plans of having a new right hand man. His attention was to get those golds at all cost.

He galivanted in the room for a while, hitting the gun on his head lightly. It was a hard decision to make. But if that is what the old wretched man want in other for him to spill out his plan, he had no other choice than you put his ego aside and surrender to him.

"Fine. Do whatever you want."

He smiled. Alas, his ever wish had become a reality. This is so the happiest day of his life.

"Now speak." He ordered in anger as his impatience were crawling up rapidly.

The wretched man's lips wried. Looking at the impatient man before him, there was no time to beat around the bush and start puking out his words.

"Boss.... the slaves..."

Lee's brows tilted up. He scoffed. Was this man really kidding him at this point. He pulled the trigger and pointed the gun at him. "Does it look like I'm kidding now uhn?" He barked in anger.

The wretched man's hands were stuck in mid-air. "Boss... calm down...."

"Calm down....?" He barked and shot the ceiling to show that he wasn't playing here, and pointed the gun back at him. "Speak up." He was trying his inner best to maintain his cool.

"Boss, I mean we can use the slaves as your bait to get those golds."

His hot fury body, suddenly dwindled to a room normal temperature. His hand retracted back to his side and confusion tinted his face. The wretched man's hands slowly dropped down back to his sides. Lee was trying to absorb what he heard. Like how was that possible? His eyes traced back to the man in front of him.

"How do you mean?"

The man smiled. "Boss, everyone wants freedom and would do anything to get it."

Lee's face now drew in annoyance. "You're saying I should let all of them go just like that so they could turn into zombies. I never knew you were a bigger fool." He spoke angrily and pointed that gun back at him again. The slaves are his only means of income and if lets them go just like that, how will he survive.

"If you have nothing reasonable to say further, I guess your services are no longer required."

"Wait boss. I've not finished explaining." He trembled in fear because he knows very well that Lee can put those bullets in him without holding back.

A spirit within him was forcing him to listen to what he had to say. Even if he's angry at the moment, he just decided to listen to all what he had to say knowing very well that something good might come out of it.

He smiled after his boss had given him the look to go ahead.

"Offer boss...." He spoke smiling and Lee whipped his head to him, listening to all what he was saying.

    His men had gathered all the slaves together. The slaves were kept in the warehouse. They were used for different purposes. He sold them to different people around the world.

    The expression slashed on their faces was limpid that they had changed their minds. Lee sauntered down the stairs towards them. His smile really bitter. He had hoped for them to go bring back his golds. It was their freedom after all and he had thought they'd do anything just to be set free. He heaved out a frustrating sigh. Is this it? He understood the reason for their fear but who won't do anything just to be set free, plus, he's also offering an amount for who ever gets his golds. He needed them badly. If they were not ready to do this, then who in the world would. A bitter and wicked wry tucked his lips."Why change your mind now uhn?" He barked out in frustration. "You were all really happy few seconds ago, so why do you have a scared kitten's look on your face. Why?" He continued barking in anger and frustration. "Don't you want freedom.. I'm finally setting you free and you're backing out? Why? Because of those brainless walking dead? Do it and get your freedom. I'm also ready

    "First, I want to thank the six of you." Even if it wasn't coming from his heart, he just have to say it. He needed to be on his soft side. He just have to, no matter what. He knew body else would do what they're about doing. "I'm really grateful. But you see... I don't even know if I should say this. But please.... do all you can not to be infected and bring those golds back to me. Is that clear....?" He hated how nice he sounded, but he was using all he can to speak to them this way. It disgusted him to deepest part of his soul but there was no other option. He just have to be nice and sweet to them like a child who wants candy."And what about the preparations?" Justin asked. "Everything will be set before the end of tomorrow.""We'll be needing guns, matchet, dynamites and any other thing you can think of." Binna spoke."We'll get you all you need. But just so you know, you do know that those creatures don't die right?" His look was now cold as he faced Binna to speak.They're al

    Foods of all different kinds were brought to their rooms. Their mouths salivated instantly as the nice aroma filled their noses. Instantly, they started digging and eating like hungry dogs."Get us more juice will you?" Binna commanded.She knows fully well that they cannot do anything to her right now. They were at their mercies after all and that's why why they've been acting like good children to their slaves not to get them upset. And besides, it was also Lee's order for them to behave like good children to the slaves.They gritted their teeth the moment Binna ordered them like that with such audacity. Her fearless and commanding eyes looked up at them and she noticed none of them making a move, rather they looked like she'd be getting beaten up by them anytime soon."Do you want me to report to your boss. I think you really want us to back out from this mission uh. I also think it'll be better if you guys go." She spoke in a disgustful tone.Suddenly, their bodies cladded in fea

    Binna had given the foods to some of her friends and had walked back to the room they were all in. They have taken their evening bath. It had been so long since they last had such sweet taste of water on their skin. They don't let them bathe as slaves and it was really soothing to their skin the moment the water touched their skin. To top it all, they were given clean clothes and blankets to cover their bodies. Their bodies sagged in happiness. All six of them sat round on the floor. They didn't know each other much and none of them looked like they were ready to speak."So what now?", Justin finally spoke breaking off the silence." We need a plan of our own before getting in there.""He's right." Kim spoke. "In other for us to come back without getting infected by those creatures, we need as much plans as possible. It'll be impossible to come back out there.""You got any...?" Kate spoke.Moments of silence flew pass them. Judging by their looks, none seem to have any plan."It look

    "Everything is now set. Is there anything else you need?" Lee spoke, they were in his office. "The preparations to take us there?" Kim spoke. "I mean, how are we getting into the country's capital."Lee shrugged. "We won't be dropping you off at the capital." Shock plastered on their faces. "Why?" Binna asked."Look, the country's capital is too risky because of the high population of those zombies. Since we'll be going by boat..... ""Boat....?" Kim echoed that word."Yes. Those creatures are really sensitive to sounds so we can't go by chopper. There's a possibility they might even get us even before the mission begins if we go by chopper. So the easiest way is by water.""Okay. So where will you be dropping us if not the capital?" Justin asked."Good question." Lee continued and brought out a map, spreading it on the table. "We'll be dropping you guys here." He said pointing at a city close to the country's capital. "You guys will have to start your journey from here.""That pla

She spat and cocked her gun.Their eyes flew wide open as soon as they realized what she had just done. They froze for a second, their hearts thumping wildly in their chests. They threw a glance at each other, knowing it was the end for them. No. Not for Binna.The two of them started running up the stairs. They could hear them coming in their direction. This time, for sure, they'll be crucified.They halted their steps at the sound of fireworks exploding from outside. Their brows crunched, and they could hear the zombies averting their attention and running speedily to the place where the sound was made.Another set of fireworks played again, and shortly after, the building became quiet. But they first stood there for a minute to make sure everything was clear. When it was, they tiptoed to peek to see if it was indeed clear. It was, and they separa

    When she noticed that the zombies were now on the move, she quickly threw the matchet to her targeted place, where it hit the metal, and hid herself back. As the metal and the matchet collided to create the sound she was looking for, the zombies immediately diverted their attention from Kenji to where the sudden, sharp sound was created. Kenji, on the other hand, did not bother wasting a single second in forcefully pushing the door as soon as she threw away the matchet.Binna quickly crawled and went to where Kenji was. "You alright?" Kenji asked as he successfully shut the door.She leaned her back against the wall, trying to get a breather. That was one hell of a move, but she couldn't say it. She just gave him a thumbs up, indicating that she's alright."What next? Those zombies are probably hovering around the exit of the building. So what now? You got any plans?"She straightened up and glared at him. "We'll still push through with this. We have nothing to lose, especially now t

    "Be careful out there, you both." "You too." Binna spoke and nodded her head. The two of them turned their backs on him, ready to leave the room.Kenji used the matchet while Binna took the gun she had loaded with bullets earlier. This is one hell of a sacrifice.Slowly, they opened the door slightly and peered right outside. Seeing that the entrance was clear, she slowly and carefully opened the door more to create more space for them to step out. Kenji peeped again, both left and right, and signaled to her that the road was clear. While prayers were chanting in their hearts, they took a step out of the door and shut it. Binna and Kenji removed their shoes to avoid creating clicking sounds with them on the tile. Their hands tightened on the tools they were both carrying. The building, at the moment, is extremely quiet. Eery quiet. The zombies who were creating lots of chaos earlier by running helter-skelter in the mall looking for their prey were now quiet. But Binna and Kenji kept

    Sacrifice

    Justin, Binna, and Kenji hid in one room. Everyone's heart increased in beat. Sweat was dripping non-stop from their bodies, and prayers were chanting continuously in their hearts not to get caught by the zombies. They could hear the zombies' snarling, and it was getting louder, which means they were getting closer to where they hid. Their breathing ceased as they heard one of them passing by their door. Their throats worked up and down, and their sweat flooded their entire bodies. Their bodies jerked up in fear, and their heartbeat fastened more as one of them hit their door while they were still running. Their hearts finally relaxed a little afterwards."Where is Jennine?" Justin asked Binna in a whisper."She's with Kate and Eli." I'm pretty sure she's fine. She also whispered.He just nodded his head and slid to the ground carefully because of his injured leg. When will this end? They've done enough marathon racing today. Justin's leg began bleeding again, and Binna quickly used a

    Smith just sat on the ground, leaning his back on the wall. Justin's eyes went furious the moment he saw Smith. Everything he did earlier came flooding back to his mind. He walked angrily to him and caught Smith up by the collar, grasping his collar tight with one hand. He shook him violently, and a punch landed on his face. Argh! He had been wanting to do that for ages now."What did you think you did out there, you asshole?" He barked at him angrily and landed another punch on him. "Because of you.... Just because of your fucked up brain, Nathaniel got bitten and is no longer with us." He landed another blow on his face, and Smith fell to the ground."Take me back to Lee. I don't want to turn into a zombie. Take me back." He cried out.Before Justin could do any further damage, Alain grabbed Smith's collar and punched him twice in the face. Smith started bleeding, because his punches were heavier than Justin's. Alain's punch consists of pain and anger residing in him after he has los

    "We're right outside." Kate spoke over the walkie-talkie."Roger that," Justin replied.Justin and Kim walked out of the building. Since their road was clear after they had peeked, they walked out of the building. Kate used the car's flashlight to signal to them that she was in the car."Where're the rest?" Kate spoke as they shut the door."I think we have to wait a bit for them. We got separated." Justin spoke.She nodded and started making light noises with her finger on the steering wheel as they continued waiting patiently for them."Binna...? Where is she?" Kim asked after the long silence that reigned in the car."Binna and Kenji are in the ice-cream truck. But don't worry, they'll be fine. They had a plan, and I think it's going great.""And the rest?""They're in a safe place. Jennine too." She spoke to him while looking at him through the mirror.He nodded. There was no need to worry about Binna. He knows very well that she is a very courageous woman.It was now dark and the

    Thudding

    Alain, on the other hand, socked himself in the soft bed as he thought about Nathaniel. He just could not believe that Nathaniel was no longer with them. He must have turned into a zombie by now. As he remained motionless, tears threatened to fall from his eyes.He shut his eyes and immediately opened them upon hearing the sound of an ice-cream song. The sound was still light because it was coming from afar, but he knew from how it sounded that it was connected to a speaker or something like that. Thus, the zombies banging on his door have not heard it. He quickly got on his feet in search of a way out. He could not jump from the window. He'll definitely die from the distance to the ground. He also tried looking for a way through the ceiling, but it was still impossible. There was no f*****g way out of the room. He looked at the door where the zombies continued banging heavily on it, and he could only swallow. If those zombies continue banging on that door more, there is a possibility

    The Letter

    Smith had continually peed on his body - not knowing how or when - because of the thudding of the marauding zombies that kept banging fiercely on the door endlessly. After his breathing has finally vapoured out clearly, a dark miasma filled his nose. He wondered where that solid stench was coming from.The room he entered was a small and tight confined room, with a little window peeking a little sunlight to the room.He searched everywhere and there was no sign of where the smell was coming from. His eyes then caught a rectangular ancient box that was slightly opened. Just by its size, he knew the box was big enough to contain a full human in it.Adjusting his glasses and sweats raining down his whole body, he took small trembling steps to the place where the large box laid. The smell became stronger as he got closer to the box. Still, he endured every smell and now stood before the box. His only prayer was that what it was he was thinking in his mind should not be what it is. It must

    All Good

    Alain took the next jump after Kim did, only for him to loose balance and fell on the ground. He groaned in pain cause of his twisted ankle. But that didn't stop him. He got back up on his feet and continued running. The zombies that fell off as they tried jumping to the other building, got back up on their feet and started chasing Alain. Alain ran as though his right leg wasn't bad anymore."Find a building Alain." Justin spoke from the top of his voice on the rooftop as he kept on running. His eyes was also on Alain as he continued running on the roof. "Alain....." He screamed his name as one almost got on Alain.Alain was quick and took the right, causing the zombie that was about pouncing on him to fall on the ground. Almost immediately, he barged on a door and strictly locked the door from inside. The double doors were not strong enough to hold the zombies that had begun banging on the door. He just realized that he was now in an hotel and he quickly ran to the elevator. He pushe
