Zombie World (7 page)

I asked Mia if she could go and get corporal Smith, Ben, Jess, Frank, and Tina to
come to the office?
She told me that she could do that, and that Mark was going to ask if he could go also.
I told her to have Mark come as well.
She said that Mark was just outside the door.
Then send him in I replied.
Mark came in to the office, I told him that I needed him to stay here to work the
computer and sap phone.
I would like to go with them so I can help them with the laptop just in case something
go’s wrong I can fix it.
Paul told him that he was sending someone from his team that can do that.

Everyone I had Mia go and get, came to the office we told them that they were going
to be leaving in the morning at first light. We told them what we wanted them to do,
and what we were looking for in the pictures and videos. We said that they needed to
send us reports every other day.
Paul told them to go and get some sleep they are going to have a long few days getting
there.
They all left Paul and I head out also. I was just hoping that we were doing the right
thing. I fear that if they were caught, the people there just might come here and take
everything that we worked so hard to make. Are lives here was good we have had to
kill zombies but we haven’t had to kill anyone that was alive. I was hoping that we will
never have to do that ever, but I know that we are going to have to. I have to come up
with a plan to let everyone know that we might have to kill people that are not
zombies.

I was lying in bed thinking about everything that we all have done here. I don’t
know what’s going to happen in the weeks to come, but I do know that we need to
push on with everything that we have been doing. Having Paul and his men here has
been the best thing that has happened to us. With his help we got more food, weapons,
clothing and a bunch of other things that has been a god sent. I was also thinking
how lucky I was to have all my kids and wife here alive. There is people in my group
that has lost their kids and loved one. I wish that I could have been there to save them.
I rolled over and snuggled up to my wife and fell off to sleep.

I went in to the lunch room at six a.m. to get my coffee and a donut. I wanted to be
there when the team leaves to DC. I wanted to wish them good lucky and to be careful
not the get caught or killed by any zombies. They were going to leave around seven
a.m. so they could make it there in about two or three days. We told them that when
they got there to send a message. We made sure they had a lot of food, water, and
ammo. We told them to look for more food and ammo on their way there. We told them
that water should not be a problem to find it’s all over. Paul told them to boil it before
they drink it. They packed up and left, they told us that they would talk to us later. We
told them that we would monitor the sap phone just in case they did us.

Paul asked me if we could go to the office, he had something he wanted to talk to me
about?
I told him sure let’s go.
When we got into the office, Paul had a plan to help reinforce the fence. He laid it all
out to me, he said that we need to head to the hardware store that was next to W-mart.
Paul said that he bet that the hardware store would have the wood, concrete, sheets of
metal, and the other materials that we would need to build the best wall, to keep out all
the zombies that would try to get in.
I told him I was willing to head back to the W-mart to get the materials that we would
need. I said that we need to bring a larger truck, but maybe a tractor-trailer. We could
load that will a lot of material, and whatever else we can find. I was telling him; it will
get everything ready to head out tomorrow. He was telling me that he has this bad
feeling that the people that went to DC were going to be captured by the people at the
White House.
I told him to cannot worry about that right now, we need to worry about everything we
need to do to get done here. He agreed with me, as were heading out the backfield
where Mia, was out there collecting eggs and feeding the chickens pigs horses and
cows.

Paul and I were talking to Mia, about Paul’s plan. She could see the look on our
faces that we were worried about something. She just did not know why we would be
worried. I could see the look on her face that she knew, Paul and I were worried.
Mia asked me and Paul why we looked worried?
I told her that Paul and I have this bad feeling that the people we sent to Washington,
were going to get caught and tell them about us. We think that once they find out
about us that they were going to be coming here. We are not sure what your action is
going to be well our group surviving. We can only hope that they do come that they
will not take everything we have done here and kill everyone. That is why Paul has
come up with this plan on reinforcing the fences and walls.
Mia asked why would they come in here, and take everything and kill everyone? They
would have a better chance surviving this world with large groups.
I told her that they may not come in here and do all that, but we want to be ready just
in case it goes down that way.

We are all headed back to the kitchen, so that Mia could put the eggs away. As we
were about to enter the building, we heard yelling and shooting. We ran to the front
gate, there were people on the other side shooting the people we had regarding the
entrance. They did not hit any of our people, I yelled out and asked him why they were
shooting?
One of them yelled back and said that they wanted to come in. She said that they had
children that were hungry, and other people that were sick. She said that they were
shooting because people at the front gate, would not let them in.
I told her to put down the weapons, and that we would let them in to help them. We
would feed the children. I also told her that we had a doctor to look at the people that
were sick.
She agreed to put down their weapons.
I opened the gate, and Paul could not believe that the girl that was yelling was his
sister.
He ran to her and gave her a big hug. He said that he thought that she was dead.
She told him that when everything fell apart that she took off and went to the cabin.
She said that she thought that he was dead.
Paul walked over to me and said I would like you to meet my sister Sam.
I told her that it was nice to meet you I didn’t think he had any family out there.
Sam said that she was sorry for shooting at our people, but I was getting pissed when
they would not let us in.
I told her that I am sorry they were to call Paul or me to let us know that there were
people at the gate. I asked her how she knew we were here?
She said that they came across three people about two weeks ago, they told me to bring
the people I have and that you would feed us and shelter us.
I told Sam that they were right, and I bet you would love to go and get a hot shower
and some food.
Sam asked me what is there to eat?
Mai told her that there making pizza for lunch today.
Sam smiled and said hot damn hot water and pizza I must have died and gone to
heaven.
We all started laughing at Sam.

Paul took his sister and showed her were the showers were. he told that he would
wait for her to get done and they could go and eat lunch.
Mia and I were heading to Paul, Mia had some clean clothing for Sam to put on when
she got of the shower. On are way there the sky got cloudy, and it look like it was
about to rain for the first time in over a month. We sure could use the rain, it has been
very warm for the month of May. The weather this year has been warm through
winter, we got no snow it was cold for a few days but then it would get warm again. We
went into the gym and Paul was sitting there waiting. Mia took the clothing in to the
women shower to give them to Sam.

They come out from the women shower room. Sam walked over to us.
She said that she feels so much better, and I smell a hole better, now if I can find a
razor I can shave my hair legs.
Mia told her that she would get her a razor after lunch. I will also give you a can of
shaving cream as well.
Sam said that she would love that. How did you all get this stuff.
Paul spoke up and said that we got it all from W-mart. We cleaned the hole place out,
we only left the rotting meat.
Mia said that lets all go and get lunch.
We headed to the lunch room, there were people running by us. I wondered what was
going on so I followed them. They went outside, I walked out and it was raining
everyone was out there running around and playing in the rain. I turned around and
headed to the lunch room. When I got there Paul asked me what was going on where
was everyone going?
I told them that there were all out there playing in the rain.
They all said that it sounds like fun.

Sam was telling us that she was feeling great. She had a full belly and she was
clean, and she couldn’t wait to go and shave her legs. When we got done eating Mia
told Sam to come with her and she would give hear what she needed. Paul and I were
heading to the office to make sure we got everything set for on the morning to go to
the hardware store. On are way there it started to thunder and lightning out. It didn’t
take long for everyone to come running back in, the rain was really coming down. I
said to Paul that I sure hopes it stops by morning, I would really hate to go out in this
and try to get the supplies.
Paul said that if it’s still raining like this in the morning, we can put it off for another
day.

We were making our rounds, checking to make sure everything was good and safe.
The wind started to pick up it was slamming the rain hard on to the side of the
building. I was glad that we had no trees any were near the fences or any of the
buildings. I was telling Paul that the garden should be grow really good with all this
rain coming down. Everyone that are living out in the campers were coming in to the
school. They said that the wind was blowing so hard that the campers were rocking
back and forth. We told them to stay inside the school until the wind calms down. The
wind was blowing so hard that it started to make the windows shake.

We were walking up the stairs when we heard glass braking. We ran to where we
heard it, the windows in the school lab broke from the wind blowing so hard. We
covered the windows in plastic to keep the rain out. Sabrina came down the hall
telling everyone that dinner was done. Paul stopped her and asked what for dinner?
She replied left over pizza from lunch.
We headed back down, to get dinner. We were going to head to the office after that, to
go over our plans for tomorrow. We were in the lunch room when we heard everyone
talking about the storm. They were all getting worried. I got up on the table and told
everyone that we are going to be fine. The storm should be letting up soon. But for
any one that lives out there in the campers if you would like you all can stay in the
school tonight, but you all will have to bunk down here in the dining hall.
By the time we all headed to bed that night, the wind was not blowing so hard the rain
was down to a drizzle.

The next morning the storm was gone and it look like everything was normal again.
I got up and got around so we could go to the hardware store. My boys, Paul and his
men were all waiting on me. I told them let me grab my morning coffee and we will
head out. I told Mia that we were leaving to hold down the home front.
She replied I will and you be careful, I love you.
I told her that I love her to and that I will be back.
We all got in to the trucks Willie and Bryan got in to the semi that had the tanker on it.
We knew where we could get an empty trailer to put on it.
It did not take us long, but we got there. The storm we had last night knocked down a
lot of trees.
Paul told me that he was glad that we were getting what we could from the hardware
store.
We pulled into the parking lot and Paul drove around the store, he said that he wanted
to make sure that all doors were still closed. I had Willie and Bryan drive around
behind the W-mart to get an empty trainer. Paul told his men you know what to do,
now move it.

The rest of us were at the front of store, I got the doors open with my handy dandy
crow bar. We moved in slowly. It was a lot darker in here then the W-mart there is no
sky light in this place. Paul told me that he has a plan for this. He had two men head
back out to the truck to bring in their generator and lights. They hooked it all up at
the front of the store but it did not light up the store to good. We could only see about
half of everything. I asked Paul what if we find a few more generator’s and hook them
up, and they got to have shop light in here some place? He had one of his men go
back out to the truck to bring in two of the gas cans. He said that we were going to
need fuel to run the new generators. It took us a little bit to find the generators and
lights, but the store was almost well lit.

We were looking around to see what they had. Paul said that we are going to need a
least two more trucks or we are going to have to make a few trips.
I radioed Willie and asked him how many more trailers is out behind W-mart.
He said that there was two more.
I told Paul that we can load this trailer and have them come back and get the other
ones and we can load them.
Paul said that it sounded like a good idea, let’s do it.
As we were loading the first trailer I had Willie and Bryan unhook and go and get
another trailer and park it by the other loading dock.
I told them when that come back from taking the first one to get the other empty.
It took us about two hours to get the first one loaded, as they took off with the first one
we started to load the next.

It took us all day we did not get back until late that night. We told everyone that we
would unload the trucks in the morning. Everyone took off the get cleaned up and get
something to eat before they all headed to bed. Mia was still awake when we got back.
She asked me if I was ok?
I told I was just hungry and tiered, and I know I am going to be hurting in the
morning. I went and took a shower. Mia went and got me some food so I could eat
when I got out of the shower. I ate and I went to bed I was going to have a long day
when the sun comes up.
