On another day, James and Carlos go to the alley where the observers were the day before, arriving in the alley there is no one, James decided to wait 3 minutes to see if something happens, Carlos says it's better to search the area for resources than to stay in the alley and some zombie come to them since there was no sign that anyone was going to show up.
------How about we go to that diner? I've been reading that some survivors used cafeterias as a shelter at the beginning of the infection, they may have left something. Says Carlos, pointing to a diner to the left of the alley.
-----Good idea, let's go together since you are not familiar with this side of town.
The snake bar is dirty and with most of the windows broken there is a bench blocking the entrance, James and Carlos go to one of the broken windows, pushing away the broken glass they enter slowly and carefully through the window. Inside the snake bar everything is overturned, there are backpacks on the benches on the lap of the body there is a note on the table in front of the body, the note says "Nolan, I just couldn't take it, leave what's left of food and ammo in 2 backpacks, From your beloved Ethan ". Carlos goes to the body and takes one of the backpacks, it contains a lot of spoiled food. Trying to see if there is still edible food in the backpack, Carlos ends up getting irritated and cursing in Portuguese, throwing the backpack on the floor, Carlos asks James to check the other backpack as he climbs over a counter towards the cash register.
------You're not thinking about stealing the money, right?, After all where would you use it.
------I don't know, maybe in those military camps.
------I doubt there are any left , most were destroyed by infected civilians,wait....you wanna save it for later motherfucker.
-----hahahaha exactly little boy.
After some time, the two have already searched the whole place, and are getting ready to leave until they hear someone say "stopped" when they look, they see a man at the window they entered pointing a rifle at them. They raise their hands, the man ends up entering the cafeteria with two more people, there were 2 men and a woman.
------Hey let's settle this peacefully says James.
-----I think not, pass everything you have, very slowly, and so do you say the woman.
-----Calm down, we shouldn't get into conflict, zombies are the enemy not us say James.
-----None of that, you stole from our friend, says one of the men.
-----So you know Anthony? says Carlos.
----Yes he was an acquaintance of ours, says the man on the left.
When the woman who was among the men was going to say something is interrupted by a shot through the visor of his helmet. James and Carlos take advantage of the situation to hide behind the bench, Carlos, even before starting to run to the bench, was shot in the right shoulder and fell to the ground, James, seeing Carlos on the ground, pulled out a pistol he was carrying, shoots towards the shooter, ends up missing the target, but there's time for Carlos to protect himself behind a bench, The men protect themselves on the benches as well as James and Carlos, the men throw a kind of explosive against the two, when the device explodes throwing some kind of liquid, the liquid ends up only catching James, since Carlos' cover was farther.
------What.... ? this..... is....blo..blo.... blood!
