The End Of Life

Hearing his question, David looked at him and said with a straight face, "Why would it be their request after what you did before? It is from me. I know you are a human and won't be able to save everyone here. All I ask is to try to aid these people who are trying to protect the place. Only aid." 

Mark nodded and said, "Alright, when you guys are out. I will aid these people if the situation asks for it. But don't depend on me to save these people if they are in trouble." David only nodded h

earing him. He knew this is the best he could get out of him. 

"We'll eat something for now, before they come to pick you up. You don't want to go on an empty stomach, do you?" Sitting on his bed. 

David nodded and reached out for the food in his bag. He took out a can of beans and a water bottle. He slowly ate the food before throwing it in the trash. As he was drinking some water, the door got knocked, and he stood up. 

Keeping the bottle on the table, he looked out of the peephole and noticed it was Baren on the other side. He quickly opened it and Baren said, "Come, let's go. We arranged the teams of 4 each. There would be a total of 10 teams to search out for big vehicles like trucks." 

It surprised David a little when he heard him. So he asked, "You guys already arranged everything?" 

Baren nodded and replied, "Yes, the police chief took care of everything when we said this. We will only leave a few to guard the base and take the rest on the mission. The quicker we get it done, the better it will be." 

David nodded and said, "Alright one minute." And went inside. He quickly reached for his bag and took out 3 magazines he had with him. And kept it in his pocket. He took out the gun and checked the bullets. When everything was fine, he looked at Mark who was observing everything and gave a nod before moving out of the room. 

"Let's go." Closing the door behind him as he got out, he looked at Baren. Baren nodded and led him down the building. Both of them reached the entrance of the hospital, where Mark pointed his gun at Gwen. 

There were already groups of police and citizens arranged neatly in 4. An old person and the mayor stood before them as the mayor was giving out some instructions to all of them. Seeing them arrive, the mayor turned towards them and asked David, "Are you ready?"

David nodded and the police chief asked, "Do you have a weapon?"

David nodded and showed his gun before keeping it back inside. The police chief gave a nod and said, "Alright, then you are in that group there. I already told your group leader your destination. So please be ready. You will move out in five minutes." Pointing at a group of 3. 

David nodded. Baren looked at him and said, "Be careful, David." David smiled and went towards his group. The three people looked like 3 brothers. All of them had the same bowl haircut, and one of them wore a police uniform. 

"Hello you must be the 4th member. I am the captain of this group. Nice to meet you, I am Birch." Said the one with the police uniform while reaching out for a handshake. 

David smiled and shook his hand while introducing himself. The rest two also introduced themselves as Basil and Briar. And like he thought, all three of them were brothers, with Birch being the eldest and Briar being the youngest. 

"Once again nice to meet you. So where is our destination?" He turned towards Birch. 

Birch nodded and said, "We would be going to one of the moving company's warehouses where all the moving trucks are parked. This is the easiest place for us as the population around that area is pretty low, so the zombies are also low." 

David nodded. He inquired about the weapons in hand, and it seemed like only he and Birch had guns in hand while the other two got a metal rod and a hammer. 

"Alright now, everyone remember to be safe out there. I don't want to lose any of you. Now go and get us some vehicles." Clapped the police chief and all the teams dispersed. 

David looked at Birch and asked, "Where is our vehicle to go there?" 

"Follow me." And all three of them walked towards the area as David parked their jeep. Passing their jeep, they reached the parking lot of the hospital. The parking space was already filled with some vehicles. 

They went near another normal SUV car and stopped. Birch pointed at it and said, this is our vehicle. David was dumbfounded but understood not everyone was lucky enough to get a modified jeep for the military. They all got in and drove out of the hospital. 

David sat beside Birch, looking out for zombies. They slowly drove through the roads of the town. As Birch said it seemed like the zombies became fewer and fewer as they went to their destination. They had to stop sometimes to kill some zombies in the way, but it was mostly only Basil and Briar. 

They eventually reached the large warehouse and saw a row full of moving trucks. They parked the car in front of the entrance and all of them got down. 

"We need to get inside the office and get the Keys for these trucks. We can only take 4 trucks with us, if we abandon the car we came in. Let's try to go as quietly as we can. We don't want to attract some unnecessary attention." Said Birch as they gathered around the entrance door. 

The rest three nodded and Birch slowly opened the door. All of them got inside and Briar closed the door behind. They looked and found there were only a few zombies in the lobby.
