Other people's _POV_
Hiding in the basement Lyka and other's huddled together for comfort as what happened today is really straight out of there nightmare.
"Is the crazy people outside gone?"
A guy in his 20s ask the people around him wanting to hear a good reply.
"Jake! You can go and check it out"
Lyka coldly reply.
It's not that Lyka is being cold but this guy keeps on asking about the situation outside.
Seeing Lyka's cold demeanor, Jake cannot help but stop his mouth before continuing to ask around.
The other two, was also annoyed by him but they just left him be.
Who's still in their right mind this time around after what happened yesterday?
They watched people getting murdered Infront of them, and all sort of horrible thing's in just a single day!
"Guy's look at this!"
A woman in heavy makeup alerted the other people in the room.
They all look towards her to see what she wanted to show.
"Look! A safe zone establish by military is in MSU college near us"
The people around finally showed an excited expression after a day of intense worry and fear.
"Yes! Where saved... Where saved"
A guy in the group cannot help but cheer up and become exited.
"Be quiet!"
The 3 people shush him.
They all look at him coldly as he was making to much noise and may attack the crazy people yesterday to attack them.
"But it is a full 5 kilometers away from here"
"How can we reach that place without dying in the process?"
Lyka spoke the real problem.
The other people also turned silent after hearing her words.
She's right! The real problem is that how they will go there without dying in the road that may or not hide a crazy people.
"Then what?"
"Wait here and die?"
The woman with heavy makeup spurt back at Lyka, as she also turn her gaze towards the other people.
"Guys! "
"We should move now or will die here if a madman find this place"
The other people around listen to her words.
"Then what about the... You know"
The most timid person in the group burt out.
"You can stay here if you want!"
Jake coldly answered him as he took a metal mop from the side.
It's not like they want to arm themselves with a mop as weapon but it's the only one available here.
The other 2 also followed the suit leaving the timid guy behind.
"Wait!"
The timid guy don't want to be left behind forced to follow behind them.
"Before we go out from here we should also take some food with us"
Lyka suggested.
As calamity struck the globe surely food will be an important resource for survival and transaction in this critical time.
"Are you crazy?"
"Do you know how dangerous just walking around are?"
The heavy makeup girl retort.
"I know but think about tomorrow!"
"What should we eat? Grass and tree barks?"
"Do you want to rely on government? Whose always late on giving supplies?"
"Even if they give... What would you do with a one meal worth of food that the government thinks will last you a lifetime?"
The heavy makeup girl couldn't retort.
She was right! And other people also think she was right! So they unanimous agreed to go towards the supermarket to hoard food even do they expose themselves to more danger.
As saying goes... No risk No gain!
And their risking their life for just a couple of meals worth of food.
How much they can hoard on their hands or in a grocery bags?
Without limiting them themselves?
Should they go towards the department store get a lot of backpacks and expose themselves for more risk?
As they traveled towards the grocery they first thing they saw are blood andeat strewn all over the ground and wall of the stall.
The nuesating smell of blood and meat entered their nostrils making them almost puke here and there.
But they still held it back and continue to walk forward.
Fear grip their weak hearts more as they saw the new world pictured in front of them.
They wish this all thing was just a nightmare but alas it's not.
After walking silently for a while they already reach their destination with no unexpected scenario which to their delight
Who want to meet those crazy possessed individuals?
But soon their expression stiffen as they heard a sound of someone hoarding supplies just a dozen meters away.
Their heart skip a beat as they heard the noise.
They don't know if it's madman or sane like them.
"Jake check it out!"
Lyka's voice just above a whisper suddenly said.
"What?"
"F*ck you!"
"You want me to die so badly?"
Jake same voice just above a whisper coldly retort.
"Jake you are the strongest and bravest in all of us!"
"Who do you think is better for this job than you?"
Lyka replied back also looking at other who unanimously nodded their heads.
"You all!"
Jake frown as he look at them who also turn their heads away from his gaze.
They know how much danger they put him into so they don't have the face to look at his eyes.
"Fine!"
"But what would I get from doing all of this?"
Jake said as he fiercely look at them.
"I... I'll let you enjoy my body..."
The woman who wear a heavy makeup said.
She know this is the only thing she has to offer.
"I... I'll be your loyal lackey!"
The timid guy followed after.
Jake listen with no interest.
Jake gaze look towards Lyka he seems waiting for her offer.
"I'll give you this!"
