The cure was located and Zain needed to figure out what to do. What was the best option? Using it now would better the situation in the city. Perhaps, because there would no longer be any zombies, then the armies from the outside could move in.
They could always meet with General Begal and maybe hand him the cure. That would then mean putting trust in someone else's hand though. There were also the words of Humfree that humans weren't strong enough.
This was a group of demons that had taken over countless other planets before. Were they only being suppressed now because of the high stage zombies in the middle of the city? If they were all to disappear, would that allow the demons to spread out?
There was also the thought of what would happen to them as well. What did cure even mean, did it mean that all of them would die? Would the large Titan zombies really revert back, as well as the higher stage zombies that were gigantic in size and no longer looked human?
It was hard to believe that a cure had been created to stop all of that.
"So what have you decided?" Skittle asked, seeing the determined look on Zain's face, he figured he had come to a decision.
"I'm going to pick what gives us the best chance of surviving." Zain answered. "And I'm not just talking about now."
A message had been sent out to Carl, giving him orders on what the plan was on what they were to do next. Immediately after hearing it, he thought Zain was mad, even crazier than Humfree.
"You plan won't work!" Carl immediately rejected it. "I just don't see it working out the way you do."
"This is what Humfree talked about." Zain replied. "He just never had the means to do it, but I do. If it doesn't work, then it means death for everyone and I just need them to see that."
In the end, Carl was trying to think of any other solutions, apart from the one Zain suggested. It wasn't that the ideas he came up with were bad, but they didn't have the potential to resolve the bigger problem, whereas Zain's did.
The Dark Zombies moved out, and they were heading to another territory, the territory owned by the Military base.
They trekked through the different areas, and came through a border that had been set up. The soldiers were dressed up with their uniforms and guns in their hands, standing by piled up cars.
Dart and Carl were the only two that went to the military's territory while the others would be hiding nearby.
"Man, I'm going to get killed again." Dart said, with his hands raised.
"Stop!" A soldier shouted out. "If you move any closer you will be shot."
Carl then stepped out in front of Dart.
"We have come here to talk!" Carl shouted back. " I believe that the one in charge is a General Begal! I have been sent on behalf of Zain… to discuss an important matter."
The soldiers looked at each other, before one went through a makeshift entrance behind the barrier of cars.
"Come on, this isn't going to work, just because we mentioned Zain's name, why would they speak to us?" Dart complained.
When the soldier came back, even they seemed relatively surprised as they shouted an answer.
"You may come in… but you will be escorted by us, and don't try any sudden movements."
Elsewhere in the city, there was another section that had been kept by the military. If one was to include all of the military's territory, it was the smallest out of them all, especially now that the Zombie Hunters started to expand. But it had grown, and amazingly the military had split up into two groups, although still working together.
One of them was a group led by General Begal, mostly in charge of protection as well as trying to take over dangerous territories. The second group, was lead by Ryan, that were focused on the wellbeing of the people and survivors out there.
They had taken over an apartment block. There were around fifteen large apartment buildings that had been cleared out and cleared of zombies. An open grass area where supplies would be given out everyday and a park for people to play sports in.
It was the most home-like place that currently existed within the city. Helping the people forget where they were.
A young strong man lifted a few supplies and placed them on the ground. Opening the top, he wiped the sweat off from his head.
"That's the last box, right Cody?" Ryan asked.
"Yeah, the last of what Begal sent us, he said we might have to start rationing by the end of next week if they don't find any more. By the sound of it, most of the city has been cleared out. At least the safe areas."
Ryan rubbed his eyebrows together, when people got hungry they were more agitated causing more problems from that. The people never really understood how difficult things were on their end as well.
"We need to come up with some type of plan." Ryan said.
Tapping Cody on the back, the two of them walked off. They were heading to one of the apartment buildings' first floor, where they used the reception area as the base. The two of them had both joined the military around the same time, Cody having spent a long time with him after he had been left.
Although he never had resentment for being left, he knew full well why that happened. When entering their reception room to strategize, the two of them were shocked as they looked up and saw others were inside.
"Did you… miss me, Cody?" Kelly asked.
Standing by her side were Pink, Kun and Dab.
"Hey kid, hey Ryan, it's been a while." Kun said, remembering the time they had spent at the museum together.
It was a long awaited reunion.
"Don't look too shocked, but Zain sent us over, I think we need to talk."
