Meanwhile, on the hydroelectric company in Curtea de Argeș, where the other members of the group have run from Doctor Oetker, are now about to embark on a military truck who has come to take them and escort the group into the remote community of Valea Iașului. The survivors who have gone inside the truck are Gancea, Mihaela, Ron and Daniel.
All of them, including the soldiers, having time to know each other names, something they like and sharing their background before and after this virus has hit the whole world, reshaping the entire world onto something different.
The military truck arrives at the four-way road where is an abandoned furniture making factory, a restaurant that gone bankrupt due to some stupid mistakes, two stores that were used by construction workers as a stop to have their morning coffee, and a few other houses where humans were living. The military truck takes the road that leads to Valea Iașului, not the one leading to centre of the city, or the other one leading to Valea Danului, another village where humans used to live.
In military tuck cabin, the soldiers and the survivors are all sitting on the bench, waiting for the truck to arrive at the said community. The man by the name of Daniel, is looking through the opening of the cabin, he sees how the man-made buildings are starting to get far each second from his view, how other appears and disappear as the truck continues to move on without a stop. Daniel is looking around at the cabin, he meets eyes with a soldier.
"Is the place safe?" asks Daniel.
"It is." responds the soldier looking at Daniel. "It has walls, watchtowers, food, houses for you to share, doctors, anything you need it to live safe nowadays." the soldier is looking at the opening cabin, he sees a few zombies who were passing by, and are running after truck. "These things… are evolving."
"I know." says Daniel. "It gets harder and harder to live each passing day."
"But with our help." says the soldier who is rising from seat with a Desert Eagle type handgun seen in most first-person shooter games, aiming his gun to the upcoming zombies. The man shoots the gun five times. Kills all five of the zombies who were after the truck. "You." he looks at Daniel then at the rest of the group of survivors. "All of you, will be safe from dying to these Undeads."
The military truck continues to take head the road leading to Valea Iașului, leaving Curtea de Argeș behind, while it is still in ruin. The few people on the military truck cabin are looking back on the city they used to live in their entire life. Some of them still cannot believe this is happening.
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
After a few minutes, a soldier that is on the cabin is trying to contact someone on the radio by using his own station. He is trying to contact his people from the community, but it seems the station doesn't work.
"Hey. Can someone hear me? Over." says the soldier to the station as he continues to try to talk. "We are on our way to the community. We have acquired a group of survivors from Hidro Argeș. All in good shape. Over."
But nobody picks up the station. the soldier decides to try two more times to talk with someone from there, then he gave up because of his colleague who persuade him to stop calling them. The soldier thinks people from that community are probably busier than them. And he gave up contacting the people from the community.
When the military truck was at nine kilometres away from Valea Iașului, it suddenly stopped. It stopped because this truck wheels have hit something sharp which made the truck lose control and drive off the road, hitting a tree and stopping in the said tree. Thankfully, nobody died in that crash. The driver and the passenger from front were having their seatbelt on and did not hit their heads to the wheel or the board. And the passengers from the back have braced to the impact. Not any of them from there being injured.
"Anyone alright?" asks a soldier from the back, looking at the group of survivors and his colleagues.
"Yes." says a soldier. "We are fine."
"We are okay." says Gancea looking at every survivor, who has managed to braced for the impact and fallen from their seats. "What happened?"
A soldier looks outside, and before he could say something, the said soldier gets shot in the head from outside, and falls on the floor of the cabin. Every single soldier, seeing their comrade dead, they grab their guns, and they start to fire blindly bullets outside. Where a few screams of pain are heard and screaming of joy from the outsiders. A survivor, Daniel, has taken a pistol from the ground, and as a courageous fool he jumps off from the truck, going to kill the attackers.
When the man got outside of the truck, the first thing he sees is a man who is aiming his shotgun to him, but when he pulled the trigger, the shotgun did not fire any shoot. The person looked shocked at the gun, and he looks more shocked at Daniel who is pointing the handgun to the attacker.
In just a second, Daniel pulled the trigger of the handgun. The bullet flies from the gun, and hit the attacker throat zone. The attacker falls on the ground with the shotgun in its left hand, laying on the ground.
Before Daniel could do anything else, he sees on the left side three people who were aiming their handguns at him, and they were about to shoot the man.
Daniel was quick to jump out of the range of those attackers. He made a leap of faith on his left, hiding on the other side of the military truck, using the big wheels as a blockage from the bullets.
One soldier jumps from the front passenger's seat, and he joins Daniel side, he then asks him.
"What's happening?"
"These people are attacking us." says Daniel looking scared through small opening to see these three attackers slowly advancing and firing their guns at military truck. "They are coming close."
"Take this!" yells the soldier leaving the hideout with his assault rifle he had on his back, and he shoots the attackers.
