Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

"Okay okay. I'm getting up now." Xiaoyun got up from the ground and started packing.

After closing the HQ tent with the help of several soldiers, the two were back onto the march.

"How much longer do we have left?" Wuli asked as the sun was getting up to the sky.

"About three more hour of walking and we'll get there." Xiaoyun replied back.

"Ugh, I'm joining the fast response team next time... there's no way I'm walking this again." Wuli wiped the sweat on her forehead.

"We definitely need more transportation... I wonder how's the fast response team doing."

"They should of arrived like yesterday afternoon already..."

"Yeah... but still no signal from them." Xiaoyun pulled out his phone to call Jixi.

The phone call just ended in the voicemail as Jixi didn't pick up the phone.

"I have a bad feeling..." Wuli looked a little worried as Xiaoyun failed to contact them.

"Maybe they are just in an area with no signal." Xiaoyun dismissed it.

Meanwhile yesterday afternoon...

"How much longer do we have left before we get there?" Jixi asked as he sat in the passenger seat of the car.

"About ten more minute." Gantian replied as he drove the car.

The road was quiet as they exited the highway and entered a two lane road, with left mean for other direction, but nobody cared enough to follow traffic rules.

The entire convoy was like a snake, with buses and trucks all following behind three heavily reinforced car, with Jixi and Gantian in one of the reinforced cars.

"It's awfully quite..." Gantian commented.

"Yeah... where are all the zombies?" Jixi looked confused.

Suddenly, a loud bang sound can be heard in front of them, with blood splatter all over the wind shield out of nowhere.

"What the fuck was that? " Gantian slammed the brakes to put the car to a stop, forcing all the cars behind to stop as well.

"Shit! Everyone stay in your vehicle! Don't open any windows, it's bunch of invisible zombies!" Jixi immediately realized what it was and yelled through the walkies talkie.

Everyone could start hearing banging sound against all the cars, especially the buses and trucks as the metal scratching sound could be heard, with car window on the edge of breaking

Gantian immediately started the car backup and speed up rapidly, forcing the invisible zombies to drop and getting crushed by the car.

"Captain of the 3rd company here, requesting permission to fire! The window can is about to break!" The voice came out of the walkies talkie.

"Granted!" Jixi glanced at the rear mirror where he could finally see hundreds of invisible zombies banging on the buses and trucks behind them as the invisible mutants seem to lose their camouflage every time they hit something.

With window breaking sounds, the soldiers opened fire without having time to open the windows.

The invisible zombies immediately all became visible as one of them getting shot splatters blood on the entire crowd nearby. Which allowed the soldiers to easily identify where the invisible zombies were at.

After several rounds of firing, all the invisible zombies were dead.

"Whew... that was way too close." Gantian let out of a sigh of relief.

Jixi noticed most of the buses and truck had only few dents on the side, except for the windows which are completely broken by the shots.

"How much longer do we have left?" Jixi asked Gantian again as he started to have a bad feeling about the 1st brigade.

"Five minute..." Gantian responded as everyone could finally see the massive water plant in the distance, as well as gunshots and explosives going off.

"Everyone on full alert." Jixi talked though the walkies talkie, but everyone was already on full alert from earlier.

Just as they could see the front entrance of the water plant, it was completely overrun by zombies.

"Shit! Gantian can we turned around here?" Jixi realized there was no place to stop for the troops to get off.

"I can try but all the buses and trucks behind us won't be able to." Gantian replied back loudly as the noises outside made it hard to hear.

"Fuck it! All three cars, full speed ahead!" Jixi yelled though the walkies talkie.

"You sure Major Jixi?" The other two driver asked.

"Yes! We don't have time to turn around and position, we'll position when we get inside." Jixi replied back.

"Are we really gambling that there's still soldier inside still holding?" Gantian realized what Jixi was suggesting.

"We got no other options... the gunshots must mean there's still holding onto it." Jixi held onto the grab handle as the car got closer to the zombies.

All the zombies turned around and started rushing toward the cars in the front.

With a loud crushing sound, the cars drove right pass the already broken gate and into the water plant facility.

All the buses and trucks was able to follow right behind the cars that cleared the way.

"All free fire!" Jixi yelled through the walkies talkie.

All the soldiers in the buses immediately opened fire as they drove in circle to stop the zombies from catch up to them.

But eventually they ran into a dead end and had nowhere to go as a massive zombie horde chases after them.

But the dead end also meant they had no worried about zombies flanking them from the back, they only had to deal with three directions.

"Everyone off!" Jixi yelled out as he got off the car.

All the soldiers got off the buses as fast as they could, as well as the soldiers in who haven't fire a single shot yet due to being in the trucks.

Just as the soldiers got into formation, the zombies were just hundred feet away.

"Fire!" Gantian fired his gun to signal all the soldiers to start firing.

Every single soldiers started firing and soon the zombie horde that was chasing them was beginning to thin out.

"This water plant facility is massive, where should we go?" Gantian asked Jixi as they could see in the distance a massive zombie horde that was even bigger than the one they are fighting right now.

"We can't go help the 1st brigade yet. The fact they fall back all the way there means there's so much that even they are having trouble dealing with... Let's wait for rest of the army to get here first." Jixi replied back.

"Major Jixi, I think that building over there is a perfect place for us to stay and set up camp for now." One of the captain pointed at one of the building nearby.

"Everyone slow retreat toward Northeast!" Jixi yelled out as the soldiers started retreating towards the building that the captain suggested.

Despite constantly thinning out the zombie hordes, there was just more and more zombies coming in from the other entrance that was in the completely opposite of where Jixi drove from.

"Why the hell is there so many zombies attack this single water plant?" Gantian commented as all the soldiers were able to retreat into the building.

"1st Company, you stay and guard the entrance, 2nd company you clear the ground floor. 3rd Company you stay here as emergency backup." Jixi passed out the orders to the captains.

"Gantian you stay here and direct them, I'll go clear the upper floors... 4th company, follow me." Gantian didn't object to it and Jixi walked up the stairs.

The second floor was just as massive as the first floor, but fortunately it had no zombies at all.

It was an administrative building they had entered inside, as there were hundreds of white collar desks and several empty offices.

"All clear!" All of the Corporal leading their platoon came back with no sigh of zombies.

"Good, we can set this up as temporary base... Anyone found a way up the roof?" Jixi asked.

All of them shook their heads.

"Okay, everyone follow me." Jixi went back down to the first floor.

"Anything new?" Gantian asked as nothing has made him need to move yet.

"Nope, there's nothing upstairs. Look like we are staying here until tomorrow afternoon... that's when they should be arriving." Jixi replied.

"Should we try to contact the other building in the distance?" One of the captains suggested.

"We can't... the amount of zombies between us is way too much. Most of our ammo are still in the trucks." Jixi pointed out.

"We should try to drive them in the front." Gantian suggested.

"Not now... maybe when the zombies calm down for a bit." Jixi looked over the 1st company still shooting to hold the main entrance.

"2nd Company, get ready to switch shift with 1st company. Everyone else can relax for now." Jixi noticed company one was starting to run out of ammo.

"Yes sir!" The captain lead 2nd company toward the entrance as rest of the soldiers sat down to rest.
