ALTERNATIVE.
____________________________________________
Chapter 10: WASHINGTON.
Klaus: Lee do you think we can kill off all the walkers in Washington?.
Lee: I never said anything about all of Washington. We just need half of it.
Klaus: Half of it?.
Lee: Yes half including the white house. But first, we need to find survivors.
Klaus: Good idea.
Alice: That's where I come in right Lee.
Lee: We will split into three (3) groups. Alice and tash will search for food while you and Shaw will search for survivors.
Klaus: And what will you be doing.
Lee: Only five (5) of us made it to the submarine...with you two pairing in groups of two I'll be the only person in my group.
Alice: You can hardly call that a group then.
Lee: I won't make the same mistakes I did when the apocalypse first started.
Alice: What mistake was that?
Lee: Trusting people.
Klaus: You trusted me.
Lee: I didn't have a choice it was you or the walkers.
Lee takes out a map of Washington state and shows it to Klaus and the others.
Lee: Listen up we only need to secure this place by the weekend, It might be an apocalypse but I'm sure we've all watch movies.
Klaus: Right and things just won't magically disappear even if it's an apocalypse.
Lee: Right...so we need clothes, shoes, phones and a bunch of other stuff.
Alice: I think most of the major food companies haven't been touched by anyone. Most people aren't thinking to think that big.
Lee: but we are, everyone let's meet up back here at five pm (5:00 pm).
Klaus: Be careful everyone.
Lee and the others split up in groups of three (3). Lee is the only person in his group while Alice travels with tash and Klaus travels with Shaw.
After walking for an hour Lee finally saw somewhere he could rest for a while a coffee shop. Lee enters the coffee only to see corpses on the floor, Lee covers his nose and walks past them.
Lee: This place stinks.
Lee heard a noise behind the counter and went to check it out, when we looks behind the counter he sees a man in handcuffs. Are you ok Lee asked the man?' I'm fine the man replied.
Lee: I'm Lee and you are?.
Unknown person: I'm Joe.
Lee: Nice to meet you Joe....can you tell me why you're handcuffed behind here.
Joe: a crazy asshole cuffed me to the counter. I managed to kill a couple of walkers while being cuffed but I thought I would die from starvation.
Lee: Joe if I remove the handcuffs how can you be beneficial to me?.
Joe: Beneficial?.
Lee: Okay, you can stay here and die.
Joe: Wait...wait, I'm an engineer and I'm also good at farming.
Lee: That's good. If you try to betray me just know that you'll be dead.
Joe: I understand.
Lee removes the cuffs off of Joe's hand. Joe takes up his gun and knife and gives them to Lee but Lee tells him to keep them.
Joe: So where are we going.
Lee: we are going to look for more survivors.
Joe: Why? You wanna create a new nation?.
Lee: That's the plan. Washington will be the new world for survivors. But first, we need people to work.
Joe: I understand, by the way, nice-looking katana you have there, where did you get it.
Lee: I got it from someone.
Joe: I can see that you don't like to talk.
Lee: But you sure do.
***MEANWHILE WITH KLAUS AND SHAW***
Klaus: So Shaw what do you think of lee.
Shaw: He's a nice guy.
Klaus: I'm sorry about your friend, we didn't get to save him.
Shaw: It's okay.
Klaus: So what do you think about lee's plan to secure Washington.
Shaw: I think it's awesome...Lee will kinda be like a president or emperor.
Klaus: Emperor...I like how that sounds. That will make me president if lee's the emperor and you can be my vice president.
Shaw: Sure boss.
A huge Herd of walkers approaches Klaus and Shaw the two tried to hide but walkers kept Coming from all angles. Klaus and Shaw draw out their guns and commence to shoot when suddenly someone throws a grenade at them. The two looked down at their feet then looked at each other and ran off, the grenade explodes. The explosion sent the two flying into a car.
Shaw: who was that.
Klaus: Are we dead?.
Shaw: no we're not...not yet at least.
Klaus stands up and takes up his gun. Shaw looks over towards his right and sees an old man and a little girl about the age of 14.
Shaw: we won't shoot at you. What's your name?.
Klaus: Let's just walk over there and ask them, remember that we are surrounded by walkers.
Shaw: I forgot.
Klaus looks at his watch and see that the time was saying 4:40 pm.
Klaus: Shaw we need to go quick it's almost five pm (5:00 pm).
Shaw and Klaus retreat to their base. An hour passed since then and the two finally reached back at the base. Klaus looks at his watch and the time was saying 5:40 pm.
Lee: You two are late.
Klaus: Sorry...
Klaus looks at Joe and asked who's this guy.
Lee: His name is Joe and from now on he's in charge of electricity and harvests.
Klaus: Okay.
Shaw: Lee, we saw an old man and a young girl while we were searching for survivors but a Herd of walkers attacked us and we had to retreat.
Lee: I understand.
Alice and tash finally arrived back at the base and a lot later than Klaus and shape but lee didn't make any fuss about it. Alice escorted two young females back to the base.
Alice: Lee, meet Aneka and ari.
Lee: It's nice to meet you both, Just what do you two can do.
Tash: Aneka is a doctor and ari is a pilot.
Lee: So now we have an engineer/ farmer, a doctor and a pilot. That's good.
Klaus: What's the plan lee.
Lee: the eight (8) of us will secure the white house tomorrow.
Joe: Just the eight (8) of us.
Lee: YES...TOMORROW WASHINGTON WILL BE SECURE.
