The first zombie experience

06.04.2023

As always John wakes up first thing does his DAILY workout and then jogs outside, when he comes back inside he sees Anna standing at the stove frying fresh bacon.

"I thought it would be nice if you came back and had something to eat".

Anna has become accustomed to helping around the house after a night on the bus, she hopes John will find the beds at Ikea today.

"Morning Anna, that's so nice of you to make us breakfast, I'm going to wake everyone up".

Before John wakes everyone up, he goes into the bus and equips himself with leg and knee pads, elbow and arm pads, a bulletproof vest and a belt with two loops for the two machetes, a quiver and a bow on his back. So ready he wakes the two boys who are still asleep Godwin is already sitting in the kitchen.

"Boys wake up there is food"

Tom and Marlon slowly get up and see John in full gear in front of them.

"excuse me sir do we get gear like that".

"Yes of course, but you will have to work for it, you are coming with us today".

The boys are excited to be able to do more themselves and to be as cool as John someday, so it's in their eyes.

John just shakes his head and sits down with Godwin, looks at him and asks:

"is it ok if you hold down the fort here while I'm out?"

"No ding I'll take care of the plants and patrol the fence".

After a brief discussion, the bus sets off toward the gun store.

Once in town John lectures the guys on killing zombies,

"Tom to your left"

A zombie slowly crawls towards Tom's position while still fighting with zombies in front of him, Tom swings his axe at the zombie's head "mud" the axe is stuck in the head the blood slowly oozes from the wound, Tom pulls the axe out with a lot of force and the zombie slowly falls backwards. Just at that moment an arrow whizzes next to Tom and hits the zombie Tom overlooked in the heat of the moment.

"I know it's not easy to keep track of everything, but you must never be so engrossed that you forget everything around you, I'm not always there to save you.

After 3 hours of hard work the three drive to the gun store, there John cracks at the lock to get the store door open after the second attempt it jumps open the store is tragically as good as empty the owner has taken most of the left behind: 1 M2 machine gun with 3 chains, 2 magnum revolvers as well as holsters and 1 CYMA M14 rifle to carry around. They gather everything together John straps the holsters to his belt and to the 2 machetes come 2 magnum revolvers, he intends to install the M2 machine gun in the bus and hand over the CYMA M14 to Godwin. I guess the guys will have to make do with the 2 axes. They pack up and head back.

Somewhere on a high rise:

"Boss should we grab them".

"No! I don't have a good feeling about this one, we'll continue as planned for now".

The bus continues home and the day comes to an end.
