Chereads / TWD: A New Beginning From the End of the World / Chapter 10 - The beginning of chaos

Chapter 10 - The beginning of chaos

After Airon  understood the rules that must be followed when being a security guard inside the CDC, he learned a lot about the place and was able to observe the Janner couple up close. 

Soon enough he would learn that the outside security would be owned by the military, but that would not last for long, the stay of the military security to hold the walkers was minuscule and they would eventually leave the place. 

Therefore, it was a matter of time before he would be the leader and make the best decisions for the survival of his group and future. During his time at the CDC he also tried to locate the people who would be Rick Grimes' group, he planned to try to bring them much later to the CDC before all of Atlanta became an undead paradise. 

However, it is obviously impossible to find them all and tell them that he is from the CDC and that they were selected to be the only civilians to be saved from the end of the world. 

But this was only his passing thoughts, he knew that in times of crisis he had to beware of desperate people and very carefully he had to accept people into his group. He did not need a cold dagger among his ranks who might try to cut him down when he slept, just as he did not need a lot of useless personnel. 

"If you are valuable they will have a future, value later on will make a change between good and bad." 

Laws will very soon lose their value and humans their humanity, hard times create strong and evil people. This was something Arion had to pay close attention to, if he wanted to create a strong and stable community he needed to know everyone's capabilities and study them closely. 

As for the Janner scientists, they would be the most valuable people within his protégés, they would be the ones who would most likely find a cure for the virus. 

As for how Candece dies in the original story, Airon knew that at some point she ended up getting infected with the zombie virus and decided to donate her body so that her husband could find a cure. 

It was this that caused Edwin Jenner to lose the willpower to continue researching, so at that point the hopes of humanity were lost. 

He couldn't let that happen, so he had to get back as soon as possible once he gathered supplies. 

As Shane takes Lori and Carl to a shelter in Atlanta, it would be time for him to meet the other main plot characters and that would only happen long after the apocalypse began. 

In other words, Airon  first needs to return to the CDC to ensure the safety of the facility and the Janners along with other investigators, and then head out to pick up Rick's group. 

Don't misunderstand Airon's intentions, he doesn't care what happens to Rick's group, he is doing this to get valuable people he can trust, he knew they were just looking to survive and protect their own with all their might. This is something he can't be sure with other survivors, of course, they won't be the only ones to be saved. 

As for what Airon  and his group were doing at the moment? He had given it a lot of thought, currently power, weapons, food and security is something the CDC center is not lacking, but in the future there will be a lack of power for generators and weapons for security along with ammunition. 

The next step in Airon's mind is to bring everything he had gathered during all this time to the center to start training everyone who was part of his group, this way everyone will be more skilled. 

George Burcea drove under Tyler's guidance to the farthest resource storage point of the CDC. Road conditions along the way were good, probably due to the "Violent Incidents" and the "Emergency Action Advisory" that has been looped on TV and radio these past few days. 

People still don't understand what is going on, so most of them are at home waiting for the follow-up to unfold and the military to act. 

However, this provided Airon  with a comfortable ride. When he arrived at the site, George Burcea brought out a fuel tanker that Airon had prepared long ago and then the others began moving the other resources to the CDC bus. 

The supplies Airon bought were placed in places where there were relatively few people, and usually not many crowds gathered, so there was no need to worry about that in this period, that also the reason why he did not hide it as well the resources as in other places and simply moved the boxes with the help of the others. 

In another place not far from Airon , Andrea and Amy were saying goodbye to their father by phone. Little did the sisters realize that this goodbye would be forever. 

"Andrea, you must take good care of your sister. You are her big sister, if I am not around you must act like a mother." Andrea and Amy's father spoke earnestly into the phone. 

"Dad, I'm not a child anymore, I don't need her to take care of me." Amy was a little annoyed by her father's words, and stopped paying attention to him. 

"Haha, yeah, you're not my princess anymore." 

Andrea and Amy's father scoffed at Amy's childish behavior, he knew that his daughters' relationship wasn't very close, so he suggested this trip to bring his daughters closer together. Andrea also smiled slightly at Amy's behavior. 

"Andrea, it hasn't been quiet outside lately. Every day there is gory news on TV. You and Amy should be careful outside. Try not to move around too much these last few days and wait for the news." 

"Dad, I will. I'll take care of Amy, too. You don't have to worry." 

"Of course I'm relieved!" Andrea and Amy's father smiled at his daughter's words. 

Soon after the sister duo drove down the road without any hurry.

"Andrea?" 

"Huh?" 

"Isn't that a big CDC bus? Why are there CDC staff in this remote place? Doesn't it look fake..." 

Andrea looked in the direction of Amy's finger and sure enough, she saw a group of people in intimidating gear and masks on their faces with the CDC logo on their arms and vehicles. 

As soon as the steering wheel was turned, Andrea drove there. 

"Hey! Excuse me, is there something going on around this place?" 

Andrea originally wanted to ask if it's safe to drive through this place; none of the people seemed to have their faces uncovered, so she approached to ask.

"Are you stupid, why would you ask her something like that?" 

"Keep quiet, there must be something serious going on if they're so sheltered." 

Andrea whispered to her sister when she heard the words. 

"No, they don't seem to be doing anything!" 

In fact, Airon  had figured out that a car had been heading in their direction for a long time, but the weapons and resources had already moved towards the bus and he didn't care if the other party noticed.  

Looking back, Airon found Andrea and Amy who had stopped not far away. 

What are they doing here? Arion Darcy was a little puzzled and then walked over towards the car. "What's the problem?" 

Arion Darcy pretended to act like her role warranted and asked. 

"Hi, I'm Andrea, this is my sister Amy, they seem to be members of the CDC, could something bad be going on around here?" 

"It's nothing serious. We're just picking something up around here and will be right back." 

"Well, they seem to be busy, so I won't bother them." 

When Andrea heard Airon  say that nothing was going on, she obviously knew something weird was going on in this place, so she prepared to leave. 

"Andrea, right?" 

Airon , who had just turned around, turned his head, took off his mask and called out to the two sisters, hesitated for a moment, but didn't decide to tell them directly what was going on, so he changed his words. 

"The situation has been a disaster recently, I recommend you not to stay out too long, go home quickly."   

"Thanks for the reminder." 

Andrea extended a hand out the window, waved to Airon , indicating that she understood, and then walked away. 

Airon  had originally intended to warn the two sisters, but on second thought, even if he didn't mention it in the end they had continued down the road, so they were sure to meet up with the others in the end. 

"All set boss." Said Billy Fisher. 

After loading all the supplies at this point, they all boarded the bus while someone else drove the tanker, Airon  ordered back and after unloading the weapons, resources and leaving the truck, he communicated with the Janner's before turning to drive away to the next point. 

In the afternoon, Airon  and the others were resting on the bus, and the "Urgent Action Notice" was still playing throughout the day on the television. 

Airon was not interested in what was being broadcast on the television. The only thing he was interested in was when the TV signal stopped and the internet stopped working, so he could confirm the progress of the plot. 

Maybe it was just thinking about it, but the image on the TV started to flicker, became increasingly blurry and finally stopped transmitting. 

"What's that? We have the best signal here..." Tylor looked at the blurry TV and stood up to check. 

After checking the TV, Tyler changed all the channels on the TV one after another and none of them had a signal. 

"Looks like it all went to shit..." Billy Fisher muttered in a somewhat nervous voice. 

Airon looked at his watch, it was 5:30 on July 8, 2010.    

"The end of the world has officially begun!" 

Airon  got up from his seat, put his boots back on and ordered, "Let's get moving, it looks like the situation just got worse and we shouldn't waste any time." 

In the next 9 days, he needed to transport part of the many supplies to a hidden location near the CDC facility. 

If it is a week later to consider transporting supplies, it will become very problematic, at that time, a large number of refugee claimants will go to various locations, which will cause traffic to come to a standstill. 

Of course, with the bus and the official authority that your group has, it will not be a problem to move anywhere you want. 

In the last few days, as Airon  took the time to pick up supplies at the farthest reaches of the CDC, there were gradually more vehicles fleeing down the streets and people in general sensed that something was wrong. 

Although the television signal was gone, the radio was still blaring, telling citizens not to go out, not to have physical contact with "violent people." 

The outside world did not stop for a few days, but intensified, many people ran out of food at home, and when they went shopping, some encountered violent situations. 

Criminals taking advantage of the chaos, there were even shootings in many places. 

Many families who had never experienced these things finally could not take it anymore, packed their things and planned to evacuate.
