215 The Red Hair
p
Now, it was time for him to continue to the barracks headquarters, it was a large makeshift container-like material rather than a bunch of tents that had been set up for the other areas, and here his meeting would take place.
Opening the door, into a large room, with several guards lined up on the side of the wall with weapons, his guests could be seen already sitting down.
“I apologise for being late, there was an unexpected matter that needed to be taken care of.” Begal explained.
The others stood up as soon as they saw the general, not sure what to do, but did so out of respect. There was quite a large group in the room, around ten or so of them, all with black leather jackets, with the word Zombie Hunters written on the back, but only one of them had bright beaming confidence.
“I suspect that you are the one in charge of your group here.” Begal said, approaching the dark haired woman and placing his hand out for a shake.
The two shook hands and Begal offered her a seat, soon they were both sitting opposite each other and it was time for them to get to the matter of things.
“I would like to note that I am here as a representative of the Zombie Hunters, or ZH faction as our leader would like to call us. I am not the actual leader but one of the heads of the group.” Wendy explained.
“Yes, I have had communication with your leader, and that is why we set up this meeting in the first place. He has shown me what you are capable of. You managed to clear a whole district and you have claimed it as your own. Your name has also spread to groups all over. Of course, most of that is due to the strange powers that you have.” Begal explained.
“Yes.” Wendy nodded. “Which is why our leader is wondering if you will supply us with what we have asked for. We are still lacking in two departments and since our goals are the same, then we should support each other, don’t you agree?”
Part of the deal with the ZH faction was that if they were able to prove themselves useful and clear out a district of the city, then they would provide them with more weapons and food supplies as well.
The army had plenty of rations that would last a long time. Food that wouldn’t deteriorate quickly. Whereas food from the supermarkets, that were at least within the city that were still edible, was fading fast.
However, Begal never expected them to complete the task, at least not this quickly. It showed their strength in more ways than one, and he had to be careful, because if he supplied them with weapons, then what if this group happend to get bigger and stronger than the military.
The military was the only form of control that the humans had left of a functioning society, but a deal was a deal, and they couldn’t back out of it now.
“I have to ask you, while clearing the district did your group come across any problems?” Begal asked.
“Problems, of course there were problems. The zombies seem to be getting stronger which is why it’s important to eliminate them all as soon as possible.” Wendy answered.
It didn’t seem to be the answer that the general was looking for, but he was unsure if she knew what he was talking about. Perhaps, someone at her level didn’t have enough information either.
“We will give you what you need, and if you could clear the district next to you then we will supply you with the same amount again. However, please do contact us, if there are any problems while clearing the districts.” Begal ended the meeting as simple as that.
Dali and Nit, let out a big breath of relief and so did the other Zombie Hunters. Although a lot of them had been sent, it looked like they weren’t needed, and there would be no cause for action.
Begal and the ZH faction walked out from the building, as he went to show the location where they could pick up their supplies, but as they walked out, Dali had spotted someone else, walking across the hard ground being sent to another location.
“Hey, are my eyes deceiving me, or is that… Zain!” Dali asked.
Being escorted by four guards with guns, there was a redhead passing through.
“No, you’re right, that is Zain.” Nit asked as well.
At the same time, while outside they weren’t the only ones that had spotted Zain. Ryan and the others had changed into clothes and their first job was to help pack up the supplies for the Zombie Hunters.
Cody and Ryan had both spotted the red head, but didn’t say anything out loud, because the way they were walking with him, it made him look like a prisoner.
And out of those from the ZH faction, Wendy had recognised the red head as well.
‘Isn’t that person…’
Flashbacks appeared in her head, a scene of a certain person protecting the zombie. She was sure of it back then, both of them were zombies, but one could think and this person was the same person.
‘Is that why they have guards around him as well. Do they know what he is?’ Wendy thought.
“Where are you taking that man?” Wendy asked.
“Oh… do you know him?” Begal asked with a raised eyebrow. “He is being escorted to have a look at the meteorite we found. Do you want to have a look?”
