At a waterpark, Alicia and a girl named Naomi had been looking for supplies and when they saw this abandoned shelter they expected to find something useful, it only took a few minutes to climb to the top of the slide.
Scanning the surroundings on both sides of the slide, Alicia discovered that there was a machine gun with ammunition, but just as she was about to look at the surrounding buildings, walkers attacked her companion Naomi and in an attempt to help her they both fell down the slide.
Fortunately, Alicia had killed the two walkers with the barrel of a machine gun that now on its tip had taken on the appearance of a spear, so all went well in this disaster.
Returning to the group and after some discussion, they finally chose to walk to a two-story restaurant, which was high enough to observe the entire surrounding area.
Although it is impossible to see the whole situation clearly because it was raining, as long as they can see the movement outside, they can clearly make a judgment on what they had to do next.
Observing the situation in the restaurant through the glass door and seeing that there were no runner-class walkers, Naomi opened the door and called out to everyone.
Some time later, several people were gathered in the room because they had heard many deafening noises in the distance which was not a good sign. Nick and Luciana were in the room, discussing important matters with Alicia and Naomi.
Roar!
But following the sound of people barging in, there was an exclusive roar from the walkers on the second floor, and then there was a rush of footsteps over their heads, moving quickly towards the stairs.
This movement naturally startled everyone, they quickly drew their pistols and pointed them at the stairs, ready to fire at any moment.
With the sound of "discharge" coming from the stairs, three runner-class walkers ran out of the stairs, and when they saw the living people standing in the doorway, they excitedly flashed fierce smiles and ran towards them.
How could there be only three walkers who could against four armed people? Alicia showed a cold expression, stopped the others from firing, raised the barrel of the machine gun she had brought with her from the slide and with quick movements those walkers killed them one after the other. There was no need to shoot these walkers and with just the edge of the cannon, Alicia took care of them all.
"You guys, keep an eye on what's visible through the windows, I'll go up to the top floor to take a look." Alicia looked at the walkers lying on the stairs dead, for what she said to the people behind her, and then, without waiting for someone to answer her, she stepped forward and walked over the bodies of the walkers on the floor, and ran to the stairs to look for an exit to the second floor.
Naomi looked at Alicia's back and was about to raise her hand to say something, but the other party disappeared around the corner of the stairs with a few quick steps. She sketched a wry, helpless smile and said to a person next to her, "Your sister sure is a remarkable person..."
"She is..." Nick is more concerned about his situation than his sister's orders.
Faced with this sentence, Naomi deeply agreed. They must know their actions. There was no such leader in this group that went out for supplies even if they now had the things they came for, the situation outside was not very good and what they saw left them a bit chilled. There were many walkers and they were not the normal kind, these walkers were of the runner class the most dangerous of all.
Boom!
Just as everyone was about to drop their packs and look for something to start a fire, there was a sudden burst of gunfire out of nowhere followed by a boom in the sky, and although the sound wasn't loud, it was clear enough for everyone present to hear.
This made everyone alert in an instant and they looked in the direction of the gunshots, but the wind, rain and their location blocked their view, and they could only hear some sounds of gunshots that were directed towards the sky.
Immediately, an ominous premonition arose in everyone's heart, and they suddenly remembered what they had been avoiding since they left the stadium.
Could it be that the Vultures are in this part looking for supplies?:
"There's no looking at anything in this room, let's go up to the second floor and take a look at what's going on!"
Nick naturally understood what they were thinking, but now that he didn't know what the concrete situation was, how he could make a decision like this, he quickly reminded him to go to the second floor to see if there was anything abnormal in the vicinity.
"Yes, let's go." After that reminder, Luciana along with Naomi, who were the other two girls in the group, looked at each other and walked up towards the second floor.
When they reached the second floor, they found Alicia standing in front of the window, her back to them, with a pistol in her hand and the barrel of a machine gun in the other she was looking up at the sky.
No one asked any questions. They all approached the window and looked in the direction where Alicia was looking, and what they saw left them very surprised.
Looking up at the sky, they all stood petrified without saying anything, looking up at the sky and away from a building not far from their position.
In the hospital ahead, on the top floor were figures shooting at a helicopter that seemed to be having trouble staying airborne, and as the helicopter touched down, it moved closer and closer to the hospital.
As the shadow moved, there were bursts of rifle fire and RPG explosions towards the helicopter, but inside the hospital no one noticed numerous runner class walkers.
Boom! Boom! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, the helicopter's engine in the sky exploded and fell towards the ground without having control of the fall. The people in the hospital had stopped firing, who looked up to see that the helicopter had not burst into flames, but apparently those inside were dead.
Shadows of walkers rushed towards them like an avalanche from all directions in the distance, with such a large number, even if they were prepared to face these walkers, no one could survive.
Just as the explosion sounded, a passenger car suddenly came out of a corner, approached the helicopter that had been shot down, blocked the street exits and further away a black van was parked.
It seems that this group of people took advantage of the downed helicopter and shot at them to steal the things they were carrying. The people who arrived got into several cars and began to eliminate all the normal walkers without any problem, but none of them knew that an avalanche of walkers was heading towards their position.
Alicia recognized this group of people who had shot at the helicopter, that same community called the Vultures had recently attacked them but they managed to escape. She wanted to help the people in the helicopter, but it was unlikely that anyone inside was still alive.
But looking at the height of the walls around the hospital and the distance, Alicia knew that with the excellent climbing ability of the runner class walkers, that height alone could not stop the passage of that horde of walkers.
Just as Alicia was about to turn around, the radio in her waistband that shouldn't be beeping for any reason beeped over the intercom, "Zz.... This is Morgan, the helicopter went down and now we are surrounded by walkers and people. Commander Airon is okay, but I can't say the same for the others."
"Zz... If you hear this message, send reinforcements as soon as possible once the commander communicates with you..."
Alicia froze when she heard this name, she knew who Airon was and right now she had to check with her own eyes if this Airon is who he turns out to be.
At the same time, all those people who were carrying some interesting things recovered from the helicopter received a burst of gunfire, some died on the spot and others were able to retreat with wounds, but just when they were being attacked the walkers came from behind, normal walkers followed by the runners.
The gunfire came from the back of the hospital and spread everywhere, slowly the people outside the hospital stopped shooting as the walkers and runners continued to approach.
Then, seven to eight people ran inside the hospital following the black figure that had shot at them a moment ago as they ran away from the walkers, even some of their guns were thrown to the ground because they wanted to run faster.
Immediately after, countless ragged, barefoot and ugly figures also ran out and followed them closely, even from a great distance, Alicia who watched from afar could feel the fear and the eyes of some of those walkers.
The few Vulture soldiers ran towards the inside of the hospital, the walkers behind them were getting closer and closer to the hospital and without much consideration they also entered.
Some of the Vultures standing at the hospital door stopped and started shooting while taking cover, blocking the pace of the walkers' pursuit.
One of the Vultures jumped over a door, grabbed the hand of another teammate and slowly closed the entrance where the walkers came from to buy time. But what they didn't notice was that they were locked in with a man who was now furious, and the only thing that would comfort him would be to kill them.
At that moment, a gunshot was heard inside the hospital. But in this brief moment, the walkers outside were eating some of the Vultures and rushed towards them, ripped to shreds within seconds.
Immediately, blood splattered everywhere, and the scarlet blood greatly stimulated the red-eyed walkers, which drove them desperately forward and soon drowned several Vultures in the walking horde.
"This is a horde of walkers, Alicia, if that man you say contacted you almost a year ago is in that hospital, he's definitely dead."
"No, you can still hear gunshots and he definitely might still be alive..."
"Even if he is alive I can't let you go and put you at risk, think coldly and look outside at what's there.
People in a two-story restaurant were standing in front of the windows and discussing what Alicia wanted to do. Nick saw the horrible scene in front of them, he was surprised that the man Alicia talked to was actually alive, he even doubted if he was really that person. However, she had mentioned that he belonged to the army, so now seeing that he fell from a helicopter it was very likely that it was him.
Although everyone had a rough guess as to what was going on, most did not choose to speak up. Naomi cried out to the Clark brothers and said, "They called for backup, someone is definitely coming to save him and it won't be ordinary people!"
"He has a community in Atlanta, at least that's what he said when we were at the military base." Alicia was a little nervous, if the Vultures attacked that helicopter and most of them died, she would definitely have to help Airon.
"You have the radio, call him." Nick said with an equally nervous look. Even he really doubted if they would get out of this situation.
Alicia ignored her brother and picked up the radio. She called for a long time but there were only bursts of gunfire coming from the intercom and no response.
Hearing the noise from the radio, Alicia's face gradually turned ugly and she did not notice the runner class walkers still running towards the hospital door, trying to scale the front wall, and the people in the hospital were still shooting outwards not realizing that someone from inside was killing them.
After a while, the hospital door was broken and slowly all the walkers invaded the hospital one after another.
Immediately there were screams, and the crowd that was facing the person inside the hospital were finally killed.
The people who were running slowly one after another, were thrown to the ground by the runner class walkers who were chasing them, and those who tried to hide in the car to escape were still not caught, and the most important thing was that they were dragged away by the infected.
Large tracts of blood stained the entire dirty ground, dividing the street into a boundary between life and death. The now peaceful street turned into an inferno in an instant, making everyone hiding in the surrounding buildings feel horrified.
But Alicia had made up her mind what she would do next.
