Finally some peace

"Yes, we can hear you loud and clear" "My name is lieutenant Trisha from Base-08 may I know who is in charge of the operation?" "This is sergeant Denver, I was put in charge of this operation ma'am"

"What operation is that?" "We were tasked to deliver a supply to the base-08 and we've been asking for a location for a week now but neither the Headquarters nor the base-08 responded"

"Can we meet?" "Of course" Lee's group meets up with the Alpha-228, Lee, Althea, Trisha, and some of their people came when they got there they pointed a gun at the soldiers [Denver] - "Emm lieutenant, we're the Alpha-228"

Trisha put her right hand in the air and all of them lower their guns, Trisha was wearing her uniform, "I'm Trisha a first-class lieutenant" She gives them her I.d "you can check my I.d as much as you want"

"This is indeed real" "I've been meaning to ask, why is a sergeant leading a platoon?" "ah, the Hq was a mess at that time and they believe in my skills to lead them" "Okay then, I want to tell you something important" "What is it?"

"The president is dead, the government is done for and most of the military safe bases have been destroyed" "Emm... Lieutenant, I think that's a bit" "this is not a joke, do I look like I'm joking to you?" He sighed

"So our guess is correct..." "Hoh?" "We've been here for a week and a half, and we can't contact the Hq or the Base-08 I should have abandoned this mission when I start to doubt it"

"Now now, you all have nowhere to go right? How about joining us? We have a safe shelter and food" "I see... That's great then, did lieutenant come up with a plan like this?" "no... He did" She looked at Lee, "Is he your leader?"

"Yeah, he's a good man, he also has a military background he is ambitious and kind, I'm sure he can lead us much better than I do" "Is he..." "He will save many survivors as he can, I'm sure"

"Okay then, we have nothing to go anyways" they get back to their vehicles, they have 2 military trucks and 2 light trucks, and they got back to the shelter.

[Trisha] - "By the way, what supplies are you transporting anyways?" [Denver] - "different types of Guns, ammo, armor, grenades, food, and many more" [Trisha] - "Wow, that's awesome, with this and you joining us we have much more manpower"

[Denver] - "Thank you for having us" they migrate to the shelter, and they help Trisha to train the others more, meanwhile Sophia and Hannah are now having a big garden.

[Hannah] - "Pew! I never thought planting a large garden is hard" [Sophia] - "We'll that's because you always run away when our father wants you to help with the farm" they both laugh.

[Althea] - "Knock knock, did we come in the wrong time?" [Sophia] - "no no, come in" they went into the greenhouse, [Lee] - "Looks like everything is going well" [Sophia] - "Yeah, the others help us build this when they have free time, and thanks to the girls that choose to help us we manage to build this"

[Lee] - "That's good then" [Hannah] - "We're good at this aren't we?" "Yeah yeah" [Althea] - "Well take our leave" they nodded they go to where the Solar power is.

Solar power is heavily guarded since it's what is keeping them alive at night, Ana and Ashley are in charge of taking care of this since they are both knowledgeable about electric engineering.

They have two guards at the door, we come in [Althea] - "Hey, how are you two doing?" [Ashley] - "We're doing fine here" Lee was looking around, [Lee] - "Do you live here?" They turn the house into a powerhouse that supplies the whole village with electricity.

[Ana] - "We sleep, eat, and live here, it's our responsibility if the power went down, in case of emergency we can switch to the two generators" [Lee] - "That's good to know" they leave and check the training ground.

The platoon that joined us is now teaching the girls we save from the bandits, the students, Lea, Carl, Althea, Jessica, and Kathy [Lee] - "How is the training going?" Lee and Althea went to the camp

[Trisha] - "Things are preceding nicely, and they should be a fine soldier in 10 weeks, we will give them the basic training but with a little twist instead of becoming loyal to the army they will be loyal to you, and only you"

[Lee] - "Hmm? Do you think that's messed up? They should be trained to protect the shelter" [Trisha] - "Of course, Protecting the shelter a d listening to us but in the end, they should be loyal to you and do as you say, no matter what"

As she said it menacingly, [Althea] - "is he the leader of the platoon?" "Old leader, my name is Denver, and ma'am Trisha here is now the new leader" [Lee] - "Do as you think it's the best for the shelter, we should always be prepared for the worse"
