Chapter 282: 282
I instructed Jared to rush towards the roof of the Hospital as fast as he could with Nikolas so they would have a better view of every single thing outside. The Hospital is a few yards away from the gate but it is still close to the high walls enveloping the whole area and closer to the Mabini Bridge compared to where we are.
“Marlon, right? Park the truck as close to the wall as possible from the other side so a few of us could position themselves on the roof of the truck. Cruz, stay here with Mike and the others and if you could, stay prone and only pop up if something serious started. Kaley, I want you on the top of the truck too with Marlon and be ready. Tatiana on me with Mando, also…” I said a few more instructions.
The group outside is still quite a ways far so I decided to be overkill.
I grabbed my radio and contacted Honassan and Avalos.
*bzzt*
“Hey, I need you two here ASAP. Bring my SuperCobra and I want it hot as f.u.c.k.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Sir?! Right away! How about your boxes?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Grab Jude to guard it for us and tell Micah to have someone bring our belongings to the S-76 and ask her to fly it here too. I believe our bags is at the Mayor’s room. However, you two I need here as fast as you could. I’ll wait as long as Bohemian Rhapsody plays in my head.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“What? The song?!”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Yes.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Sir?! That’s only around 6 minutes!”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Did you even watch the film about it? They wouldn’t even allowed to play it sinc- f.u.c.k it, JUST F.U.C.K.I.N.G COME HERE ALREADY OR I’LL CHANGE YOUR LOADOUTS TO F.U.C.K.I.N.G HI-POINTS FOR THE REST OF YO-”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“WE’RE COMING!!!”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Okay, good.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“…”
*bzzt*
I put my radio back to my pack and everyone around me is staring.
“What? F.u.c.k.i.n.g move! They’re gonna come here sooner or later!” I exclaimed.
They all sighed heavily while shaking their heads but they still followed my orders. I already have a fresh magazine on my Tavor and my Maxim 9 since I always make sure I’m at full capacity. The magazine I used that had twelve rounds remaining is located at my right side and the ones that are 30-rounds full are always at my gun and my left side. The magazine for my Maxim 9 I’m using is refilled by the Glock 17 magazine I found earlier and there’s still five 9mm rounds from the extra I got from the guard.
It’s about sunset and the sun is already showing us this orange shade it always comes with at this time. Looking outside, the huge pile of corpses are still burning and the smoke produced from it could be seen from afar. The way that Tatiana saw the flashlights being shone is that the bridge where it was seen have huge metal bars on top of it acting almost like a tunnel. Waving your flashlight around would definitely give your position especially if the flashlight you’re using is several hundred lumens high.
A few moments later, Jared radioed in.
*bzzt*
“Bro *huff* we’re *huff* here.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“How many are they?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“*deep exhale* around 30. They seem to be searching for someone.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Must be the people we encountered earlier.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Some of them have rifles and shotguns but they’re textbook gangsters bro. Do you want us to open fire now? I could down a few before they figure out what hit them.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Wait a bit. Nikolas, f.u.c.k.i.n.g speak dude. Are they close to the spot where the rest of the bodies are?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Close if they only go straight, about 50 meters… dude.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“*snort* I’m f.u.c.k.i.n.g calling you dude now, heh. Wait for their reaction if they saw them first. If it looks like they know them, you know what to do.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“… leave one alive?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Yeah… dude.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“I’m regretting humoring you…”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Hah! Everyone says that at first. Are they coming close… dude?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“They turned and headed to the gas station from the opposite side… oh shit!”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“What happened?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“They just pushed one of their own against one of the zombies… f.u.c.k, now he’s bitten.”
*bzzt*
The people next to me were shocked when they heard what Jared said but the madness isn’t over.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
*BOOM*
*BOOOOM*
*BANG*
Jared reported what happened but we already know just from those gunshots. We could hear faint shouts from the distance coming from their general direction. The only thing we didn’t figure out is that a few of them started taking shots with each other because the person that got bitten seemed to be close friends with one of the group.
*bzzt*
“Bro… they’re taking f.u.c.k.i.n.g selfies now after shooting each other… I’m itching to shoot these f.u.c.kers… they must be high as f.u.c.k or something. How the f.u.c.k did they even survive this long. Now they’re drinking alcohol from the gas station… now they’re making it into molotovs and throwing it on the nearby buildings…”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Wait a bit. They just might kill themselves if we wait a bit more. We’d save more bullets that way. Could you even hit them? How far are they?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Of course I could hit them! It’s only around 600-650 yards! I don’t need a headshot, just one in the chest and they’ll f.u.c.k.i.n.g scramble. C’mon bro! Just one! They’d fire more shots too so when they come here, they’d be out or almost out! What do you say?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“We could use their bullets if we kill them without them firing a shot. They’d also scramble like you said so we might not kill everyone and taking a hostage is out of the question.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Bro, you already have one at the City Hall, right?”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“It’s better if we have two so we could compare notes. We could have much more control over them if we’d pit them against each other.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Bro, I’m gonna be honest and tell you that I’m f.u.c.k.i.n.g happy I’m on your good side. You scare me sometimes when you’re like that. They might get away from this place if they go further. Thin them out the threats as much as possible, right? I doubt even the mayor would accept them in this camp. I bet the president’s men could pull out every bit of information from your captive earlier.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Hah! You still haven’t seen the scary side of me, yet. Okay, f.u.c.k it. Drop one and do- *BSSHEW*”
*bzzt*
I wasn’t even finished with what I have to say and he already fired one. We heard the suppressed shot and several gunshots from the other group resounded in retaliation. However, they seemed to be shooting blind and another lamp post was hit.
“Why are they always hitting lamp posts?!” I thought to myself.
The gunshots still continued but when it paused, I radioed Jared once more.
*bzzt*
“Another one.”
*bzzt*
*BSSHEW*
*bzzt*
“Want another one? I’ll aim for this f.u.c.ker looking in this direction.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Another one.”
*bzzt*
*BSSHEW*
*bzzt*
“DJ~ KHALED~!!! Ow! Kaley?!”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“*snort* Be serious bro! I almost accidentally discharged!”
*bzzt*
Faint screams resounded and another series of gunshots resounded. It was too easy for Jared atop the roof of the hospital and he told me that they can’t figure out where he’s shooting from. They’re still firing all over the place trying to somehow luckily hit him but they’re failing miserably and they’re still out in the open as easy pickings. He said that Nikolas just became his spotter since he’s not confident hitting them at that distance, not to mention the effective range for the gun he’s using is not suited for that distance.
The noise that group is making is starting to attract some of the bloody figures outside towards their direction. Jared mentioned a sprinter tackling one of them to the ground and getting mauled. Some of them he didn’t need to shoot since when they got bitten, their friends took care of them. It’s all chaos on their side and it adds to Jared’s advantage over them. He single-handedly took care of that group though some of them hurt their own in confusion.
*bzzt*
“It’s done bro. Everyone’s either dead or one of them.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Okay, good job. It’s because of that gun I gave you.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Ack-! F.u.c.k you bro! Hah! It’s all skill.”
*bzzt*
“What are we even gonna do now?” Kaley asked.
“Let’s go in that direction and loot their bodies. We could also kill that small mob that formed due to their noise. We could also refill the empty gasoline containers we found at the back of the hospital. It’s a bonus that place hasn’t been looted yet and we could have more supplies at hand.” I replied.
“Sure…” she trailed.
“What? You thought you’d see more action? We used a few bullets and that’s for the best. You could have helped Jared but your AR15 is not here. We’d come to that gas station so we could clear a few of them.” I replied, smiling.
Marlon started the engine and as we were about to head to their direction, I could hear the whirring sounds of a helicopter approaching our direction and my radio buzzed.
*bzzt*
“We’re here sir! We came as fast as we can!”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“Oh, right. Go back, we’re done.”
*bzzt*
The helicopter swayed almost instantly after I replied but it soon stabilized.
