Florida, city of Orlando.
Until now, the mass mobilization of all the walkers that flooded the streets from one side to another without any specific objective had been prioritized. As long as the walkers were eliminated and others were moved to containment points, the process of cleaning the cities would be much faster and without many issues.
But finding loose walkers is the most difficult and time-consuming task that can become exhausting. Not only do you have to search three times in places that are not even marked on the maps, but you also have to act carefully and clean every trace of blood to prevent future infections. And for this, helicopters were much more efficient.

The helicopters roared in the sky as they flew low over the main highways of Florida, creating gusts of wind and kicking up dust in their wake. Their rotors spun powerfully as the pilots skillfully maneuvered between abandoned buildings and deserted vehicles.
On board each helicopter, the members of the S.C.T. reconnaissance team kept a vigilant eye and their communicators ready to report their situation to the central base. They knew that their task was essential in obtaining valuable information about the location of walkers and possible trapped survivors.
Through their communicators, they transmitted concise and accurate reports to the S.C.T. central base. Each pilot's voice resonated with determination and professionalism. "Central base, Alpha Team on State Road 27. No signs of walkers in the current stretch. We will continue reconnaissance heading south."
The response from the base came through a crackle of static. "Alpha Team, received. Stay alert and report any changes in the situation. The safety of civilians is our priority."
As the helicopters continued their flight, Bravo Team took their turn in communication. "Central base, this is Bravo Team. We are flying over Interstate 4. We spotted a group of walkers at kilometer 45. We will deploy a cleaning team to neutralize the threat."
The base's response was prompt and decisive. "Bravo Team, reinforcements are en route. Maintain control of the situation and keep us informed."
With each transmission, the S.C.T. helicopters carried on their laborious task of reconnaissance and combat against the walkers. They flew at low altitude, navigating obstacles and surveilling every corner in search of any hint of danger. Every report sent to the central base provided another piece of the puzzle to fight this relentless plague.
As the day progressed, the communications continued unabated. The S.C.T. helicopters became the eyes and ears of the operation, providing constant updates to the central base about the situation on Florida's main roads. Each transmission was a reminder of the bravery and dedication of those risking their lives on the front line.
While the helicopters carried out their mission, the S.C.T. central base worked tirelessly to coordinate efforts, deploy cleaning teams, and respond to any emergencies. Together, they fought to restore security and hope on the streets of Florida, knowing that each report and every flight were crucial steps toward survival and recovery.

Deep in the forest, a group of elderly people sat around a campfire, enjoying the serenity of nature. Their lively grandchildren played around them, exploring the surroundings and laughing carefree. However, the peaceful ambiance was interrupted by the unmistakable sound of the S.C.T. helicopters flying overhead.
The children, excited by the unusual presence in the sky, eagerly pointed towards the helicopters and started jumping with joy. "Look, grandparents! Those are army helicopters! They are fighting the walkers!" They exclaimed with voices full of excitement.
The elderly, however, couldn't help but feel a wave of concern wash over them. Looking at each other with expressions filled with memories and fear, they remembered past times. Times when the army, in their eagerness to control the situation, employed drastic methods that put civilians in danger in their fight against the walkers.
With a trembling voice filled with worry, one of the elderly spoke, "Remember, dear grandchildren, that although those helicopters are here to help, we must be cautious. In the past, there were occasions when the army made mistakes and couldn't distinguish between walkers and the innocent."
The grandparents recalled tales of forced evacuations, dangerous situations, and the loss of loved ones at the hands of the soldiers themselves. They remembered how many civilians, trapped in the midst of chaos, became victims of confusion and misinformation.
Although the children didn't fully grasp their grandparents' concern, they approached them seeking comfort. The grandparents embraced them and reassured them, explaining their unease and the need for caution.
"Dear grandchildren, we don't want to scare you, but it's important to remember that our safety is in our own hands. Let's stay alert and follow the instructions of those people when they're nearby. We need to communicate with them and make sure they're aware of our presence here."
Although fear persisted in the hearts of the elderly, they were committed to keeping their grandchildren safe and protecting them at all times. The children, though not fully grasping the gravity of the situation, nodded solemnly and embraced their grandparents affectionately, feeling their love and concern.

The crackling sound of a radio filled the room as Airon prepared to lead an important meeting. Tension hung in the air as fellow soldiers and survivors gathered around the radio, eager to receive updates on the progress in the battle against the walkers.
Airon took a deep breath and began speaking with a firm and determined voice. "Attention, all deployed teams in Florida. It's time to share the advances and the current situation in the fight against the walkers. Our objective remains clear: to clean the streets and ensure the safety of the survivors."
A brief pause filled the air before Airon continued. "So far, we have made significant progress. Our teams have secured several key areas, and we have established safe zones for the survivors. Through tireless efforts, we have managed to rescue 250 survivors at various points in the city."
A whisper of relief and satisfaction spread among those present, acknowledging the progress made thus far. Airon continued, maintaining his serious yet encouraging tone. "However, we cannot afford to let our guard down. The threat of the walkers persists, and there are still many trapped and endangered survivors. We must remain united and focused on our mission."
As he conveyed his message, Airon expressed his admiration and gratitude toward the soldiers and civilians for their bravery and determination. He recognized the sacrifices and dangers they faced day in and day out to protect others and free Florida from the walkers.
"Remember, every life we save matters, and every step we take forward brings us closer to our ultimate goal."
Concluding the meeting, Airon urged everyone to continue working as a team and maintain constant communication. "Keep reporting any progress, needs, or changes in the situation."
The radio fell silent, but the spirit of resilience and determination lingered in the air. Airon led his team with a blend of courage and empathy, constantly reminding them of the importance of their mission and the hope for a better future.
With each passing day, Airon and his team faced adversity and worked tirelessly to rid Florida of the walker plague, while keeping the hope of a world where survival and rebuilding were possible once again.
