Chapter 55 - From Cluj to Athene - Part 35

Ana pushes with her leg the acceleration pedal and in just a matter of few seconds, the vehicle leaves the parking place, and it leaves this by ramming into dozens of zombies who weren't able to do anything against this. While Ana was driving through zombies, she heard a shoot, which immediately looks at Klaus, but she sees him that he hasn't done anything. She then focuses on her road, thinking that the shoot was probably her imagination.

After the van was close to leave the street, another shoot could be heard, and this time Klaus was the one who heard it, and he looks at Ana.

"Did you hear that?"

"Y-Yeah." says Ana continuing to drive this van to a street with dozens of corpses and damaged cars. "It was a shoot right?"

"At first I thought my imagination was playing dump on me, but it must be real. Someone is still into this city."

"Should we search for them?"

"We cannot risk it, you know. Now focus on the road."

"Okay." says Ana to Klaus feeling a little sad since they weren't going to save someone from this disaster.

Ana is driving the van into a street where there are lots of building who are still on fire, human and zombie corpses on the streets of Athena, a few cars who were working perfectly, and one zombie who is crawling out of a store. They were ignoring that creature because right now, their mission it is to go at Port, not slaying every zombie they are encountering.

After a while of driving, Ana is about to come close to the entrance of this Port. She sees the entrance it is blocked and a man who is wearing soldier uniforms, a helmet and a medico-chirurgical mask, leaves the room who is administrating the entrance, and he is making a sign to the van to stop in front of the barrier. Ana stops the car there, and then, before she would've been able to say anything, the man is aiming at the head of Ana with one of those thermometers who were mostly used back then when Coronavirus was a "threat" to this world.

"What is that for?" asks Ana in English to the soldier who took her temperature, but the soldier only noted the temperature on a notebook, then he goes to check Klaus temperature.

"I-I am alright?" asks Klaus in English after the soldier was taking his temperature. "We can finally go in?"

"You two aren't from here?" asks the man in Greek language to these two survivors. "Do you have more of you in the van?"

"Huh?" asked Alina. "I'm sorry, but I do not speak Greek."

"Oh. Wait here." says the soldier in a broken language. "I'll. Come. Back." and the soldier leaves, running to another soldier, not far from their location.

Then, Alina is leaving the back of the van, and when she did that, the other three boys are following her steps.

"Alright." says Alina going to Ana where she is standing on the driver seat. "What is going on?"

"The soldier has come to check on our temperature," replies Ana opening the window of the car door. "and now he has gone to call someone. Probably to help him translate us."

"I see." says Alina. "And why did he check your temperature?"

"No clue." says Ana, and then Klaus says the same thing.

"Is this disease like coronavirus?" asks Ho Lee.

"I don't think so." replies Ana. "If it was this, then we wouldn't have to face these things."

"But what if it mutates higher than the last times?"

"But still, no virus known to the world would be able to do this."

"Hey!" says the soldier from earlier coming with another one who is holding an assault rifle. "Who are you four? Identify yourself!"

The second soldier was about to aim at them, but that soldier from earlier stops him by telling something in Greece, then he tells another thing, which he goes closer to Ana, and he asks her in Romanian language.

"Who are you two?"

"My name is Ana, and the man it is Klaus." says Ana to that soldier, and he noted those things on the clipboard.

"Aha. You two have encountered zombies in your way here?"

"A lot." says Alina.

"I do not speak with you, ma'am." replies the soldier to Alina, and he turns around to Ana. "Are these four people with you?"

"Yes."

"They had the temperature checked?"

"N-No."

"Aha. Flavin." says the soldier to the one with a thermometer, and he told him in Greek. "Come and check the temperature on these four people.

"I understand." says the soldier coming to those four survivors and beginning to check their temperatures.

While the man was checking the condition of these four survivors, the soldier continues to ask Ana some more questions.

"So you have encountered a lot. How many types have you seen?"

"Types?" asks Ana. "There are types of these creatures?"

"A lot of them. The people have told us they encountered normal type and crawler type."

"We have seen zombies who can climb buildings, jump buildings and one who eats zombies."

"What?" asks the soldier who was putting the questions to Lee. "You have encountered Undead ? How do they look like?"

"They were pale, probably green or red eyes and when they were eating a zombie corpse, they were regenerating."

"It's a good thing you six survived." says the soldier after a while of being silent due to that type of zombies. "We've only had six reaming seats, and your data about your encountering will be valuable. Now, where are you six coming from?"

"All of us we are coming from Cluj-Napoca, Romania."

"You six are coming from Cluj?" asks the soldier surprised. "Impressive."

The soldier who checked the temperature on the rest of the survivors is telling the details of the other one in Greek. That soldier replies in Greek, and both of them are looking at the six survivors.

"Your friend over there," points the soldier at Alin, who is speaking to Ana. "Is he bitten?"

"No." responds Ana. "He got into an accident. On the way here, he got treated. His injury seems to disappear."

"I see." says the soldier feeling glad it is not a zombie bite. "You can enter the docks. In about one hour the ship will leave this area. You better prepare for the evacuation, understand?"

"Yes." replies all the six survivors.

After a few seconds, the van enters this area, and all the six survivors are heading to a room where the personal told them to go. There, they will have to send their belongings to the Army.
