Mall capture

3rd day evening : Inside the car :

Everyone slept in the car while waiting for the new group arriving ,It was silence except for the noises of dozens of zombies that had gathered near the car .

" when are they gonna come ?Its been 3 hours "

Bella broke the silence ,

" Don't know they'll be here in some time. You bored?" Siyam replied with a smile .

After a while

The satellite phone rang again and they said that they entered the parking lot and asked the groups position . Siyam explained their location and told them to turn off their lights to not attract any unwanted guests.

A black four wheel drive car arrived in front of them and stopped .

' looks like they arrived ' Siyam mumered ,

A man in his forties with a rough beard, a huge build and a large scar on his nose that went on from one cheek to the other appeared before them and started to slay the zombies with a huge axe .

"How the hell! do you know this person? "Bella said with her mouth opened wide ,

" Just a close friend " Siyam replied and also got off the car ,

"Hey man how you doing? " The man asked with a warm smile ,

" Forget about me where are the others and why are you here John? " Siyam replied with a cold expression ,

The man frowned and started explaining the chaos outside

" There were road blockages and some kinds of evolved zombies so we scattered to look for resources to use " John explained ,

Siyam nodded

" And your here for ? " He asked ,

" For food and to rescue someone important but it looks like you already have done that "

John replied with a smile ,

Siyam understood that he was taking about Tina ,

" Who is she ?." Siyam asked ,

"Oh the commanders daughter " John replied ,

Bella and the others got out of the vehicle and a woman in her twenties got out of the John's car with a black long coat and two long swords on her back. she had long slim legs with long hair and sharp facial features and looked like and assassin.

She approached and hugged Siyam.Everyone was confused except for John and Siyam. They knew that the woman liked him .Her name was Amihan .

Siyam introduced Bella and Jade ,John tilted his head as he heard the name Bella .

" She's cute " He said with a smirk ,

" No need for compliments" Amihan added,

Siyam and john chatted for a while and John asked about Tina's daughter and Nick .Siyam explained him with a sad expression and then showed them the photos he took before burning the zombie .

" hmm It's like a predator " Amihan said while looking at the features of the zombies ,

" How much do you got ? " Siyam asked ,

" We didn't got much but for a small team we got some sub machines and a spare of long swords for you " Amihan answered ,

Then they got inside the larger car where they could all fit and started to discussed the plan .

John and Amihan came to loot for the supplies located in the Mall that included food and some wearables like shoes and clothes .

So Siyam suggested to Clear the third floor cautiously and then shoot the remaining from above , Everyone nodded but there was a problem that they had only three people who could shoot so they decided to only loot the third and fourth floor and then secure the floors for later use .

Siyam wanted to set up a temporary base but they didn't had enough people for that so they decide to only block off the zombies to use the mall for a later date .

The power source of the mall was still working so they didn't had to worry about the night.They started to prepare for the battle .

After a while everyone was ready Siyam , John and Amihan were fully suited with guns. While the others only had a pistol and a knife for personal safety as they didn't knew how to shoot properly .

They entered the emergency stairs again and went up as they reached the door .

" Shoot and kill "

Siyam shouted and opener the door,

The group got into position with the three gunmen holding positions on the ground and the others holding the ammo to supply them .

They started firing at the nearby Zombies.

The guns had silencers on them so they didn't attract much attention .

After the nearby zombies fell ,Amihan and Siyam went running forwards with John giving them cover .

*Swish *

With the katanas he got from Amihan ,he started to cut the zombies throats .

After a few minutes, the floor was almost cleared and the group started to look inside the shops for possible threats in teams of three.

* All clear *

John shouted ,

Then Siyam and John went and blocked the escalators ,they blocked it with chairs and tables they found in the restaurants .

" The apartments are basically empty and the fourth floor was cleared by us so let's see if there is anyone alive here " Siyam said as the group gathered. once more everyone nodded and then they started to knock in the closed shops ,

*Thud *Thud*

" Anyone inside we're here to help" Siyam said as he knocked on the closed shutter of the shop .

The shutter lifted up and two women and three men came outside . They were very exausted due to having nothing to eat in the last two days.

A few other shutters opened and people came out .There were now a total of twenty people with five children standing in front of Siyam's group .They were all exhausted and were given ratios of food and water to fill their stomachs. A man was also killed inside another shutter as he tried to open the shutter for his undead daughter .All the guns were taken from the people found .

They were now gazing at the zombies roaming at the bottom floors with fear and disgust .

Siyam smiled as he saw the people .

" You are not thinking of it right ?" John said as he frowned ,

" I don't mind saving a few people " Siyam said with an evil smile.

He was thinking of making these people build a base inside the mall for him .

*Everyone gather up*

Siyam shouted ,

The people gathered in front of him ,

" As you know power is authority and it is sad to tell you that the world outside is not what you can handle, Its chaos out there you can see from that spot " Siyam said as he pointed at the large balcony that had a restaurant on it at the fourth floor ,

"But there is hope for you to survive the undead. So those who wanna join us to survive may stay here while the others may go down and try their luck " Siyam added and then looked at the people who were confused to what to choose .

Then five of them left from the emergency stairs and the others stayed and talked to Siyam about their next steps .Siyam just ordered them to rest for them as night came and they were too much traumatized to do any work, he also threatened to kill anyone who tries to kill or take advantage of a woman.

10'O clock : Inside the mall :

All the people went to sleep inside a large shop as they were too traumatized to sleep alone .

Siyam's group was sitting at the seats of a restaurant .

" You're just wasting time " Amihan said as she looked at Siyam with anger ,

" It's just mercy and future benifits " Siyam said smilingly .

" You like him? " Tina asked Amihan as she looked at Siyam ,

Everyone went silent as Amihan's face became redder with each passing moment, Bella too grip of Siyam's hand ,

" Yeah and I know you also do ,same goes with her" Amihan answered as she pointed as Jade and Tina .

Silence struck them again .

" Okay guys go to sleep we have a big day ahead " Siyam said and left the group hastily .
