Crouching down and listening to any noise there was only silence. After resting for a few minute he started to go trough the pockets of the last two infected ending up empty handed once again.
" Well after I clean up the corridors I will have to barricade the entrance door for the building. Than I have time to go through systematically every flat. If I can find enough survivor with my newly gained ability couldn't I simply start up my own little kingdom? I always dreamed about bossing around a bunch of people and surrounding myself with a few beauty. "
Walking out to the corridor he first checked out the opened door. Inside this flat there was nobody and the window towards the balcony was broken. After searching roughly every room he closed the flats door. Walking over and checking every door he found all of them locked.
" Well at least I won't be surprised like this. Above my corridor there is only the rooftop. With this one the top two corridor is safe. There is still the first floor and the base floor. The basement should be closed but I don't know if the horde broke in the last time when I lost consciousness or they gave up and went somewhere else. If they got inside than I don't think I could barricade off the entrance safely enough for us to stay here. "
Starting on his way down again the first floor was also empty so after checking every door he found two flat with doors unlocked.
" I can check those later. For now make the place secured."
When he reached the basement floor five infected welcomed him. After they started to rush up the stairs he used the same tactics kicking the first one in the chest. Only this time they were like domino the one he kicked grabbed hold of the second one pulling him down together. The other three also stumbled down with them.
Running after them he grabbed the closest ones hair lifting up his head and stabbing his neck with the knife. Than stepped on the stomach of another one he pushed down her head with his left hand and pushing up his knife at the bottom of her skull swiftly finishing her off.
By now the other two climbed up from the ground. One of them launched himself at his left side grabbing hold of his hand trying to bite trough the kitchen ruggs he duck taped to his arm.
The other one was blocked off by a strong kick flying back at least a meter and landing on her ass. First he stabbed the one who got hold of his left arm. The knife went inside his skull at the temple almost coming out on the other side.
The one which ended up one her ass was rapidly crawling on all four towards him. So he grabbed towards her hair and after pulling her head to the side he slid the knife through her throat ending her life easily. The fift one was laying prone the whole fight without movement. After he turned him around he found the fift infected's neck broken with the spine ticking out next to his shoulder. The skin was still covering it so it looked like a third small lame hand was growing out from between his neck and shoulder.
" Seems like my kick was very effective. I got all five of them without breaking a sweat. It's kind of easy to kill someone. I heard most of the peapole are not capable of it but it went very easy for me. Maybe because I know they only look like humans but are far from being one. Or I'm really unfeeling and she was right about it when she broke up with me. "

" Ohho. So I won't be able to rise my stats for now."
Looking towards the entrance door he could see on half of it's side the glass was broken. After walking through every door he couldn't find any opened so he went to the closest to the entrance and kicked it with full strength. The door loudly flew inside landing on the ground with a rumbling sound.
Going inside he could see a woman and her daughter covering each other under the kitchen desk.
Feeling slightly embarrassed about kicking their door he froze for a second without knowing what to say to them.
After half a minute of awkwardly standing in place he walked inside.
"I should show of my cool side and act cool right? If I want to build my own community they need to know who's the boss and see my strength."
- Hey. My name is Davies. Sorry about this, but you can't stay here any longer, it's not safe on the bottom floor. I hope you could follow me upstairs. I already cleaned out the corridors so it's safe.
The woman was covering her daughter behind her back looking at Davies with clear vigilance. Which was normal after a stranger kicking down her door and telling her to follow him.
- Are you with the police?
- Sorry but I'm afraid there are no more police in this city. Currently we need to rely on each other if we want to survive. You don't need to worry I'm also a tenant in this building. I live on the top floor. I hope you could come with me it's really not safe to stay here.
Looking him over she have decided to climb out from under the table pulling her daughter with her but still shielding her with her own body.
- Than I would follow you. Not like you left me any other choice. But I need to gather a few of our thing.
Whyle saying this to Davies she was looking at her door with a sour face.
-Grabb only a few clothes we can come back for the rest after I secured the building.
