Zombie World (8 page)

When I got up the next morning I went down to the dining hall. I was sitting there
drinking my coffee and eating. Mia came in and told me that they almost have all the
trailers empty, there working on the last one now. I thought to myself that they must
have gotten up early. I finished eating, I grabbed my coffee and headed outside. I
stood there drinking my coffee when Paul came out, he asked me how long I have
been up?
I said that I just got up about an hour ago. I told him that Mia got the people to come
unload the trucks. I had nothing to do with it.

Paul went and got him men, he told them what he wanted done. As he was telling
them I had a group of people. I told them to listen that they were going to help build as
well.
Paul told them all to go and grab tools and let’s get this shit done. Paul said that we
should have enough to build around the old fire dept. and the health clinic, and some
of the houses with it.
I said good maybe we can get some of the people out of the campers and in to houses.

We worked for days, to walls were almost done. We took the old clinic and turned it
in to a mini hospital, on the first floor the other four floors we turned them into small
apartments. So when we got more people we could put them there to live. I thought to
myself that we should be done in a few days.

It been about three weeks and we just heard from the group that we sent to DC.
They said that it took longer then what they thought I was. The storm slowed us down,
we were in it for two days. We lost the truck, we had to walk the rest of the way to DC.
We have some bad news. The white house has been overrun by zombies it looks like
some might have made it out. There is a lot of dead military people walking around,
we also see a lot of dead zombies by the fence they broke through. What do you want
us to do?
Paul got on the line and said to come back, but on your way keep an eye out for the
ones that might have made it out of there.
We can do that sir; we will head out first thing in the morning. It will take us about
one to two weeks to get back.

Paul and told Mark to round everyone up in the dining room, so we can let them
know what is going on.
Mark replied that he would round everyone up, and have them in the dining room in
about an hour.
Paul and I were going to head to the office, before we go to the dining room. We were
talking about the people that might have got away. Paul thinks that they might head
this way, and the team that we sent out might catch up with them. He said that the
vehicles that they would be driving, are big so they would go around the long way to
get through mess. The team might just catch up with them if they take the same way
back they will find them. I was telling Paul that we need to get to the dining room. If
the team doe’s catch up with them I hope that they call to let us know.

We entered the dining room and instead of getting up on the table they built a stage
for us. It took all most an hour and in half to get everyone in there. Paul and I were
standing upon the stage. Paul started telling everyone that the white house was no
more. By the time the team got there the zombies broke in, but on the other hand some
of the people got out. Now it was my turn, I told them that we believe that they might
be heading this way. Now the team we sent is on their way back. Now they might meet
up with them. Paul and I think that they would have to take the long way around. The
vehicles they would be driving are big and can’t make it through the mess the storm
made. Now the team we sent are going to come back the same way they took out there.
I told them that Paul and I were going to call them when we are done here. We are
going to tell them that if they find them to call us first before they make contact. Now I
would like to let you all know that we are going to have to have more of you all on the
wall as guards and look outs.

People were coming up to us and saying that they would like to help out any where
they can. We were telling that it was good hear, we said that we were going to let them
know when this is going to take place. We told them that we have to come up with a
plan where we are going to put people.
Paul and I got to the office, we were still talking about where we were going to put
people at. Paul was telling me that he has an idea, we need to start teaching the kids
how to shot. We got a lot of pellet and BB guns that we can train them on those. I was
thinking the same thing. We pulled out the map, Paul said that he was going to us the
old baseball field to train the children. We were also picking out spots to put people on
the wall, and where we are going to build guard towers. We both agreed that everyone
that is going to be one the wall and in the guard towers were going to be armed.

Five hours go by and we have everything planed out on how we were going to do it
all. We walked down to the dining room to get a cup of coffee. Mark came running in
he had the sap phone in his hand, he said that he had corporal Frank on the line.
Paul took the phone, he told him to call when they find them. He told Frank to call
before they make contact, we want to make sure that they are good people first.
Frank told Paul that they were not that far from them. We found their tracks, we are
not on foot anymore we found an old pickup truck in an old barn. Frank to Paul that
they only had to be at least one to two hours ahead.
Paul told him to be careful if they are military they may shot first and ask question
later.
Copy that sir, Frank replied.

Mark said that he also got the pa system working inside the school, I unhook to
speakers outside we don’t need to have the zombies hearing it.
I told him thank you it will make it a little easier so we don’t have to run all over the
school to find people. Now we only have to come up with a system to get the people
that are not living in the school. I asked Mark if he could come up with a way to hook
up the phone lines in all to homes so when we need them we can get ahold of them.
Mark replied I will come up with something just give me a little time.
I said good you go work on that.
Paul told us that he was going to go and lay down, come and get me when Frank calls
back.
I told him to go and get some sleep I will have someone come and get you.

I headed off to my place to get some rest and sleep, Mia was there and was telling
me that three of that cows were going to have cafes very soon. She also told me that
they have found a few more cows and another bull. Wow it sounds like the farm is
going good, how is the garden doing.
She said that the garden was doing great the plants are starting to grow.
We both headed off to bed, as I was laying there I was proud of what we have done.
We have come a long why and I was hoping that we can keep pushing forward to
make this place the best place on the planet. I know we are going to have bad day but
we are going to have a lot of good ones to.

Mark came running in and woke me up, Frank was on the sap phone. He told me
that he took the phone to and gave it to Paul, he told me to come and get you.
I got up and ran down the hall to Paul’s room, he was still on the phone. I heard him
say to bring them all here. I stood there listening as Paul was telling them; I was
waiting for him to get off the sap phone. Mia came into the room to find out what was
going on.
I told her that I did not know until Paul gets off the phone. She said that she would
wait here with me. I was on the phone for 15 minutes I heard bits and pieces of the
conversation.
Paul told me that they found the ones that left the White House, and that they were
pretty beat up and that they have wounded. He said he told him to get them here as
soon as they could so that we could help them. Frank also told me that the president of
the United States was still alive but he was badly wounded, and that their medic was
doing the best they can to help them. They lost her doctor at the White House he was
bit and they had to put him down.

I told Paul that it’s a little after 4 AM that I’m going to back to bed for a few more
hours.
Paul said that he was going to do the same, and that he will meet up with me in the
dining hall.
He lay back down and I headed back to my room, Mia was with me she said that she
was going to that the alarm for 7 AM.
Mia said that she would wake me up, so that I can head to the dining room to get my
breakfast and coffee hopefully before Paul comes. She also told me to let her know
and what we were going to do when the group got there.

Mia woke me up at 7 AM like she said she was going to. I got up got dressed and
headed to the dining room my morning coffee and donut. I wasn’t there long when
Paul came walking in.
I told him to get his coffee and food, I would meet him in the office when he was done.
He told me that he was going to get his coffee and a donut and bring it with him.
I told him we could talk on the way to the office, so you can tell me everything that
Frank said on the sap phone.
He went to go and get his coffee and donut, Mia came in and told me that she was just
down at the barn and two of the cows had their cafes sometime last night.
I told her that was great news, how long before they can start giving mike?
She said that she doesn’t know but she would talk to the vet we have.
Paul came over and said that he was ready to head to the office.
We headed to the office talking on the way, I telling Paul that I think the firehouse
would be the best bet for our new place for the president to turn into an office. We
were also talking about putting everyone into the old clinic. If they did they would be
comfortable living there, and they need more room for other people we still have a few
houses in the campers left plus a few more rooms left in the school.

He was telling me that most of the people for the president’s staff, and the rest were
military. He also said that they lost most of the military that were at the White House.
He told me that the president had lost his son and his wife was also hurt. The
president was hurt the worst but their medic said that if they can get him here to a
doctor that he would at least have 75% chance of surviving.
I told Paul that I would have Dr. Dave come to the office so we can let him know what
to expect when they get here. I have asked Paul if he knew that they had more ammo
and weapons that could help here?
Paul said that the president would probably take over when he gets here, we can tell
him then and everything we have done here and he will possibly let us keep doing
what we’re going.
I told him that I sure hope so, because we had done a lot of work here. I also thank
that we can do more, than what he thinks we can do.

I called Dr. Dave to the office so we could tell him that the president and the First
Lady were underway and that they were hurt. We also told him that there are others
that would need to be looked at when they got here, but we want you to work on the
president and the First Lady first.
Dr. Dave told us that the president and the First Lady will be in good hands and not to
worry. I have also been teaching the nurse Angela to be my PA. She has learned a lot
and I will have her look at the others when they get here.
I told him that he was a good man and keep up the good work.
Dr. Dave told Paul and John not to worry that he has everything under control and if
he needs any assistance he would let them know.

John told Paul that we need to get going, to round up all these people so we could
try to get the firehouse in the old medical clinic ready.
Paul said that he would go and tell his team, what he wants done before they get here.
John told Paul that he would have his team get the material and bring it to them so
they can keep on working.

We have a lot of work to do and not a whole lot of time to do it in but we had the best
people I know we can get it done John was thinking to himself. Paul is thinking
exactly the same thing, but neither one of them said and to anyone. Paul took off to do
what need to be done with his team, John also took off and on the same. John ran into
his wife on his way, and told her everything that was going on. He also told her not to
worry that they got everything under control.
Mia told him good, because I have things I got to take care of at the barn. She also
told him that the vet was on his way to look at the two calf that were born last night.
She told him that she was on her way to collect eggs right now, that she would meet
the vet in about an hour. She also said that they were having tomato soup and toasted
cheese sandwiches for dinner tonight.
John told her that I was fine he didn’t care what they had for dinner, he told her that
he had a lot on his mind.

The team we sent out, though has not come back. We thought about trying to call
them on the satellite phone. We went up to the computer lab where we use as our
communication, and asked Mark if he has heard anything.
Mark said he has not heard anything, but he could try calling to see where they are at
and what’s going on.
Paul told him to go ahead and try, and we would stay here, and wait to see if they
answer.
Mark tried calling, Frank answered. Mark– were you guys at and what’s taking so
long to get here. Paul and John want to know what’s going on.
Frank replied, tell them to go to the front gate we should be there in about 10 minutes.
Mark told us what was going on, Paul and I ran to the front gate by the time we got
there they were just pulling in. Paul stopped the first truck, and asked which one has
the president on?
The driver said the president is on this truck.
Paul pointed to the medical clinic, take him to that building there is a doctor on
standby.
I’d have done the second truck and asked them that if there are any people that were
hurt to follow the first truck.

I radioed Kelly my daughter-in-law to start making food, told her that we were going
to need enough to feed 50 people.
Kelly radioed back and said that she would make soup and sandwiches.
I told her to bring it to the medical clinic. I also told her to grab a couple bags of the
candy for the children.
There were 15 to 20 children that they brought back with them.
Cpl. Frank jumped out of the truck, that said that the children werein trouble that’s
why the president was hurt he jumped in and say them all. Cpl. Frank said that the
zombie over random the night the storm hit. The president told me that there was a
light pole that blew down and knocked a big hole into the fence. With the zombies
pushing on it did not help the military were outnumbered, and with the wind and the
rain the zombies took over everything, and the survivors jumped into the vehicles to
get out. Cpl. Frank said that he was going to call before he engaged the group, but
their military caught us instead.
