"We aren't going anywhere,sorry Aiden,you seem paranoid" Aiden paused as several people gathered at the door way,they all had doubtful gazes,no one understood what he meant.
"Tch" Aiden muttered as he grabbed Jonas by the collar and dragged him outside violently "Hey let me go are you crazy?" Jonas tried to struggle but only then did he realise that Aiden was much stronger than him,with this strength he could have easily raised himself up back at the bar...why didn't he?
"Take a look dummy" As he spoke Aiden dragged him to the balcony and pointed below.
Jonas saw the undead all rushing after the helicopter,some came out of the apartments and jumped off the balconies just to land on concrete floor,stand up and start jogging towards the direction the choppers were headed..... (Why are they jogging now? Yesterday they could all sprint,,,,)Aiden thought.
Jonas was panicking as he considered the bigger picture, these choppers were from God knew where and had reached and passed through their block so that meant that any undead between the point the chopper had taken off and their block would certainly be headed towards their area.
"But still wouldn't it be better to stay here and wait the situation out,in the hopes that these things just pass us by, or wait for the military to come back and help?" A lady said and several responded with nods.
Aiden sighed and took one of his pistols with the silencer and loaded it,everyone took a step back in fear "Chill out I'm loading it for myself,wouldn't waste bullets on you people,tch" He then grabbed his briefcase "In these situations constant movement is the answer,stay in an insecure place such as this one for too long and get trapped like a fly,those undead will come in the hundreds and will cause tremors that wil result in things falling and other noisy occurences,you have children and babies that will certainly not keep quiet,you may think that they won't hear you due to the noise they themselves make,but what guarantees that they would all pass at once or through the same road,who knows how many of them are coming,your provisions will soon dwindle and you may still be trapped here?" He said while lighting a cigarette,silence fell on the room but suddenly the voice of a man resounded "What gives you the right to tell us what to do,don't speak as if you are all knowing,we will close the windows and that's that,if you want to go out there and waste you life you are more than welcomed" Aiden didn't reply the man,he just checked his wristwatch and left the room and went to the Jansen's apartment "Kara,Marco,we have to go,this place will soon fall" Kara was confused "What's happening Aiden?"
Aiden was already packing up provisions into a sack "Kara there is no time,just trust me and pack up"
"I don't trust you" she seethed but her father's hand on her shoulder stopped her from speaking further,it was so weak, he looked so feverish and tired,he was almost a corpse,she desperately fought back the tears that built up in her eyes,he had always been such a strong man,seeing him in that state broke her heart totally.
"Listen to him pumpkin......always" Marco said weakly,Marco then asked Aiden "What should we do?"
Aiden replied blankly "Do you have a car?"
By exactly 3:29 Aiden,Kara and Marco who supported himself on Kara and a stick walked towards the apartment building's exit door,the people in the building followed them closely behind,as they got to the entrance Jonas then asked "Aiden,rethink your tactics,Kara you can still stay back,there is no need to waste your life,I also need to find my son and I will do that as soon as I can leave here.....just not now"
Kara simply flashed him a little smile "We will be fine....I hope"
on getting to the entrance the kid that Aiden had saved appeared right before them "Take me with you"
Aiden weighed the possibility,kids were a pain,hard to control and stubborn,but as he looked into the boy's eyes something just made him accept "Don't slow us down" He said while handing him a knife "Aim only for the temple" The kid nodded,with provisions on their backs and uncertainty in their hearts,Kara and Marco watched Aiden open the door to the chaos the outside world now offered.
