It had been three days since the hospital was taken as a foothold advancing closer to the shelter north of Atlanta. During this time, not only did Airon's group help the A-1 squad to clear the streets around the hospital and seal off the area, but also to clear some buildings.
The police officers on their side were sent to a special prison where they would be evaluated and classified into different types according to their crimes and values. For now, the outposts were not safe havens, but rather footholds to scout and take in refugees on the spot.
Shane had now been setting up several outposts, some in special factories and others in key buildings to keep up to the minute information on what was happening around the shelter.
Airon had also decided to take a tanker truck with him so he could travel long distances overland, if he wanted to find special people and eliminate pesky enemies while training important people, there was no better way than to do it overland.
With enough gasoline, Airon was not worried about not finding gasoline on the road, although they were always taking advantage of every opportunity that came their way.
After Airon's group experienced what it was like inside the hospital, they had adjusted their view of people and not to be fooled by mere words or appearances.
For now, the time had come to adjust the course of their destiny while thinking about what would happen next. At the moment, Airon remained seated on a couch while writing things in his notebook, the group on their side was playing a boring board game.
Poor Glenn had already lost several rounds and had nothing left to offer. It should be said that they were gambling on candy they had collected during the stops on the trip. Seeing that Glenn had nothing left to offer, he was looking for an excuse to stop playing, but Daryl forcibly held him in place.
"Glenn, if you quit the game now, I'm gonna bust your ass! I'm sure you've got the candy in your balls, just look for it." Merle looked at Glenn with a smile.
Maggie on her side sat next to him and looked at him with a somewhat amused expression, she couldn't help but see how Glenn was now at a loss just before he had almost won it all.
Airon watched this cozy scene with a wry smile, but he didn't have time to turn away as he thought about what they would do next.
The police at the hospital were an easy thing to work out. Originally Airon had intended to even exchange gunfire with those people but he didn't expect them to give up, so it went much better than he expected.
Right now Atlanta was free of communities that would jeopardize the growth of his group, so Airon was looking for born leaders to increase the strength of his people faster.
As the years go by, there is no doubt that one community in particular will knock on his doors and when that happens, Airon wants to have a large territory and at least a hundred thousand people in his community.
Compared to other communities, Airon was looking for something at the next level, a united community ready for anything at any time.
In fact, the story we are shown in the play is very simple, the whole plot except for the end shows us how different people develop and their way of changing at the end of the world. Some become lethal, others dangerous and many more can no longer be considered human.
An example of the communities that need to be taken care of as soon as possible is "the terminal", the terminal was in fact a shelter that provided support to the survivors, but then they discovered the truth. Today the dumbest thing they can do is to trust people, the ideal is to go slow in relationships.
Not to mention cannibalism, the terminal did not have a good ending at the hands of Rick's group, not for nothing that they say the destroyer of communities no matter if it is ally or enemy.
Observation is also important, the little things that can give you clues about what is going on in the place where you are. For example, in the hospital when Airon met that woman who had wounds and bruises on her face, who today especially in a safe haven is so wounded like that? It's obvious that she received abuse in some way, the fake acting of the cops and so on is an indicator that something is wrong.
"Are you still thinking about the next plans? Stop torturing yourself so much, why are you in such a hurry?"
Seeing Airon sitting quietly, Merle turned his head and looked at him with a somewhat serious expression. She knew he was a good leader, but she thought he was worrying too much about what will happen in the future, he looks and sees different paths so that he won't have mistakes later on.
Suddenly, Daryl's voice sounded behind. "Are you two in a relationship?"
"Now that's a big surprise, I won!"
After winning the last game, Daryl took the candy and walked to the back of the modified RV. His motorcycle was hanging on the back of the truck and he originally planned to rest now.
Airon on his side kept thinking about how long it would take him to solve the people in the terminal now. After all, he wasn't sure if these people had become cannibals now, but he had no intention of ignoring that group of people.
However, considering that the current terminal might not yet become a cannibal settlement, Airon now wanted to clear out the enemies around the prison and Georgia, he didn't want to have any surprises later and hoped that they could develop quietly.
And as for the others, Airon knew he had to wait some time before finding them and knowing if they would be a problem for his future plans. In this case, it was best to scout ahead while the bases were still developing, then go back and pay attention to the terminal before he knew if he could meet Abraham and the others, with this he would make the most of the time and may even gather a powerful community ahead of schedule.
The next step already being done is to develop the base, then go to military bases and get the resources there. Airon knew that even if he is not at the base, it will still be developed without any problem.
Thinking about what he was about to do, Airon finally raised his head from his notebook, looked at the people who were still playing a board game, and then explained.
"Listen, right now I have carefully considered our next moves!"
Hearing Airon's words, everyone stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look at him.
Airon stood up and pointed to an updated real-time map of the S.C.T. community territory then there were question marks on some sides with important notes. "Remember those elders you took in, the ones you took care of Bob!"
Seeing everyone nodding, Airon pointed to a position on the map and said, "That old couple told me about a place that is at this point here. He said there was a shelter called Alexandria, it was set up by a former official and there are a lot of survivors."
"It was said that they were building the shelter in an exclusive residential area. If we go to that place there are likely to be survivors and valuable information. I suggest that it is important to go to that location and consult information. If we can contact this community, it would be easy to establish a foothold from that location and scout the surrounding area from that point."
Michonne asked with some hesitation, "Why go to Virginia first, shouldn't we take a look at Georgia altogether first?"
Airon shook his head at these words and then said, "Atlanta is in the hands of Sam, Shane and Rick, they are more than enough to overpower the city without much trouble. We will advance slowly and it is only a matter of time before the city is our."
"We have to do other things, we must look for shelters from which we give them our support in exchange for them joining our community and we must also look for Noah's shelter, after that we will travel to different places."
