PEACE

NEW WORLD

Bruce tells Kyle that they have to head to Hearst now and so they did. Quickly in one of the trucks they stepped on it as hard as they can, Bruce stayed and checked out building along with the other soldiers. They come in small numbers as to not disturb the unstable structure, they see pieces of paper in different boards, and it just says how useless the vaccines are and it was no use with this struggle. As soon as they heard the attacks the men in lab coats grabs the guns and killed themselves.

"Pitiful"

Bruce tells all their soldiers and heads to Mackinaw where the situation seems to have already been under control, Eugene arrived and a portion of the city managed to hold on and the walls did not crumble. Some of them got into boats and headed up to the Mackinac Island, also a safe place but its only for situations like this where they are cornered. Eugene and Bruce assembled all of the men they gathered and waged war on the massive horde and easily destroyed it, half of them decided to live on Pierre and a thousand of them are lead by Eugene and the other half up to Akiminski. They cleared all biters that they come across as they literally an army.

The people who lead the horde to the towns went back home to Anchorage to celebrate a successful mission not knowing that their leader has taken her own life. Pierre in South Dakota and other neighboring towns gets cleared and inhabited once more with the added man force, and the others who are in Akiminski are told of the ship on the other side of the island.

"So Zach, where will you go?"

"No idea... just that, I want to run away by myself"

"How about your sister?"

"Look at them, they can take care of her, and I'll probably do the same thing I have been doing"

ITINERANT

Zachary decides to live alone in America, after all there is a safe place where he can stay if he wants too. He alone headed back to Washington and buried Tobias right beside Harry's grave, he cried as he dug a hole for him, put his coffin in it and covered it with dirt. He stabbed the shovel onto the grave and left it there. He started to head east ward back to somewhere that means a lot to him, he rides on his horse that he named daisy for days and months, and he gets back to Dalton, now all destroyed.

"Home?"

He starts to walk down from the street that he first met that man, and his family. He sees a rusting wheel barrow with dried up blood. He grabs it and pulls it around the town as he sees a skeleton on the ground, 'mom' he whispered. He sits down and told her everything that he experienced for the past 7 years and a half, and as the sun sets he kills himself.

THE FORTRESS

Pierre and its surrounding towns have now been rebuilt much stronger and larger, they were big enough to even create infantry divisions and roamed around each state creating at least one base of operations, they now ignored a vaccine and now just wants to leave peacefully, and if there is anyone that opposes them, they are willing to listen or even take them in. Society has started to come back once more as the years come by, and a statue of Tobias' dog tag that Zach gave to Kyle was created in order to honor him. Natalia walks up to eat holding Matilda's hand.

"Tobias Cramer... a soldier and a leader, a father"

"He was good man.. trying to be the best of us, its a bit downing that he died that way"

"He knew he was going to die, and to talk to Lesley as well"

The 2 held their hands firm as the people around them worked hard creating more buildings for people to live in. Bogdan, Bruce and Caiti went back to Ophir and rebuilt it, the old gets to live there for the rest of their days as they grow old and grey talking about their lives before. Caiti looks up the only photo that he has of Zachary, a sketch, she does not know what has happened to the person he love nor did he ever say goodbye to her.

Marathon and Mackinaw have been fully abandoned and was just left in ruins. Hearst as well grew in size as its own place not anymore the main HQ. Akiminski and its neighboring Island has expanded in size since the 1000 people were added to their man force, they started to create a steam boat of sorts but they can only create 2 because of the shortage of supplies. 5 years after the death of Lesley and Tobias, the whole communities banded together in order to add Anchorage into their federal state peaceful manner.

Those who wanted to live out the rest of their lives in a peaceful way went to Iceland where the people greeted them warmly, they do not have to check them as the people that are on board are free of the virus.

Those people that Tobias trusted under him took over the places that they have in control and they managed to improve it, with Lesley's death unknown to the people of Anchorage they easily managed to make a treaty, the others have also grown in size and force and a war will be deathly and costly on both sides, so they have to compromise, but over time their message of unity and peace was the one that recreated their societies allowing them to live peacefully once more.

A PLACE TO DIE

Since their societies were being recreated once more they have nothing else to worry about but the threat of the virus and its biters. They started to grow older as the time passes by and that includes the rotting bodies, it came to a point that they have no need to fear the virus anymore and that maintaining their new communities was their main problem. They all got along with one another as they make their consensus and because of that their communities lasted longer than they could have expected, no one is above or below but in the same line. They continued to live on this new world until the day that society itself has spread throughout the whole world, but everything will not be the same.

"I never will probably get to say goodbye to Zach"

"What do you want me to say?"

"Live... for as long as he can, for his or his sister's sake.... and 'see you'"

"See you?"

"Yeah, now I want to believe that a god exist.. but"

"Well... are you ready?"

"Yes... thank you for this last favor"

"You're welcome"
