Chapter 86 - Maine Street - Part 27

Meanwhile, in Gorron, at a Bar who is in a bad state as the others buildings around it, the tow truck, driven by Doc, stops next to three motorcycles. The man leaves the tow truck, and he head inside the building. When he got close to the door, he hears a lot of yelling and party music there such as heavy metal. Doc opens the door, and when he got inside, all he sees there are twenty bikers, all partying up on the apocalypse.

Three bikers are using a corpse of a human as a boxing bag to test their hits and kicks. They laugh as they hit the corpse of a police officer (he wears the uniform of an officer) and spits on him in disgust. Two bikers are rapping a zombie corpse who was once a hooker of this city. The other nine bikers are staying at the table, drunk and wasted, consuming a lot of beer which would have cost thousands of euros, but they've got for free. There are some other bikers who are enjoying the music at the jukebox who is still working as new.

When Doc has entered the bar, a man sees him, one close to the jukebox, he stops it and yells at him with a smile.

"Doc! Have you good news?"

"I have, man!" says Doc with a smile. "There is only one bastard at that sweet cabin!" he says as he looked at everyone. "The house got sentries on, but they can be easily taken down, right Ozzie?" he says looking at a biker at a table who is having at his table a sniper rifle.

"You bet, Doc! I can shoot these things even from Paris if I could!" says the man named Ozzie to doc who is making him happy.

"We will go when the night comes." says Doc to his people. "Ozzie destroy the turrets, we barge in, kill the man, and get that cabin all by ourselves! Ya hear the plan?"

"Yes, Doc!" yells most of the bikers, the ones who weren't completely wasted of the drink.

Doc walks to the bartender, who is looking at him, and he asks him as he always does,

"What would the Leader of "Pirates on the Wheels" want to order?"

"The usual, Jeremy." says Doc with a smile to the bartender who owns this place and is one of the members of this gang.

These bikers continued to party until the night arrived. And they will be going to that cabin, thinking that they would take it without sweating a blood.

At the location of a small building, a van stops in front of the garage door. From that van leaves Raoul, with his backpack on, and with his guns equipped. He looks around him with the gun equipped to shoot anything on the sight, such as walkers or even humans, if it will be the case. He walks cautions to the garage door, and as he got closer there, he takes the key from his pants pocket, and opens the door of the garage. Then, he raises the door of that building and as he raised up enough to stay still, he gets back into the van and drives the car into the garage. After he did that, he quickly takes a look around him, and he closes the garage door behind him.

Raoul sees the entire garage being in darkness. So, he starts searching for the switcher of this place. Thanks to his mobile phone, who is still working, he searches around the garage for a switch.

After a few seconds, Raoul find the switch, he turns on the lights and the room lights instantly, revealing the interior of this small garage. Raoul sees a sofa on this garage, he also sees a few bikes there, a few cabins, and he sees a door at the left wall. Raoul goes to that door, he opens it, and as soon as he did that, the room light automatically and there it is shown a generator, and a few shelves with different boxes. He checks the boxes there and all the things he found there were either old clothes, junk, documents, toys of the kids and other things who were probably important to Jon.

Raoul leaves the room when he finished his search. He doesn't want to feel bad for searching into the things of a man who died a few days ago. As he got back to the garage, Raoul goes to the bikes, he looks at them, and he finds out they are the same as the ones he took it with Jon at their first scavenging. This man has most likely taken them here while Raoul was not cautious. This man was full of surprises when he was still alive.

He goes at the back of the van, he opens the doors, and he take the supplies from there, plus the radio station. After he got the radio out, Raoul goes to a free table from this garage, he installs the thing there, as Jon taught him for the first time when they were installing the radio.

Raoul did the installation in almost an hour, and when he finished it, he turns it on, and as he did that, he got a message from someone he did not expect. It was the same kid from Poland.

"Mister! Mister. Can you hear me?"

"Yes." responds Raoul taking the headphone on and the microphone. "I can hear you loud and clear. Over."

"Oh my God! It works!" says the kid relieved. "Mom! Father! The man is back on the radio!" he says the kid running from the radio, but Raoul could somehow hear the kid screaming probably in the hallway to his parents. "The man that saved me is at radio!"

"Hey! Hey!" says a female voice unknown to Raoul, in Polish language. "Thank you for saving, our precious boy!"

"Huh? Can you speak English?" asks Raoul. "Over."

"Arthur." says the woman on the other side of the radio.

"Sir!" says the boy in English voice. "My mother thanked you for saving me."

"… but I did nothing."

"You taught me how to fight against these zombies. And you gave me hope."

"Yeah. I have talked to military, kid."

"Seriously?" yelled the kid on the radio, and this made Raoul to almost fall from his seat.

"Ah." says Raoul to the radio touching his head in a sign of pain. "I contacted them, and… they say the rescue might be coming. I have also got information about their outposts."

"Outposts?" says the kid quickly. "Like safe zones?"

"Yes." responds Raoul. "They told me most of them are either at airports, docks and ports, kid. Over."

"Awesome." says the kid, then he takes a small break to translate the conversation he had with Raoul on the radio. "My father, asks me about these zombies. How are things in your area?"

"Not looking too good. Zombie have started to grow mushrooms."

"Mushrooms?" asks the kid. "Some kind of like orangish or greenish."

"Yes. Wait. Did they also grow on Poland?"

"I have seen these things on zombies, sir."

"Do not UNDER any circumstances touch them! Do you copy, do not under any circumstances touch the mushrooms! Over."

"What? Why?" asks the kid feeling a bit nervous.

"They can infect anybody in contact with it. Especially old people. A friend of mine got infected by that thing. died and reanimated as a zombie."

"Oh, dear." says the kid feeling scared. "Thank you so much for the information! If we can do anything to help you."

Raoul looks around him, and then, after he was thinking for a moment, he says to the kid.

"Are your parents fine? Over."

"Yes, sir." says the kid on the radio.

"Good." says Raoul at the radio. "You must be strong into this new world, kid."

"Yeah…"

"Well. I have to leave, kid. Goodbye."

"Goodbye, sir!"

"Goodbye!" says the parents of the kid in Polish language, and Raoul took it as a goodbye.

He closes the radio, and he looks at it, he wipes his tears falling from the eyes. Raoul thinks about his parents, how he was unable to reach and save them, or his brother from these zombies. He feels very sad for not helping his own parents when the time was coming. "If it wasn't for that information", he thought to himself. "Maybe I could've had a chance to meet them… one last time."
