Hiding Place

Jack is on his way going home but obviously realizes that he can't make it on time. Jack try to think what to do or where could be the best place to hide.

"Oh! There is no much time left!'" he speak out of nowhere.

Jack can't get through to his house without any attackers that would seen him.

It's starting to get dark and the sun is nowhere to be found. He thought that if he will go straight to their house it will be too dangerous not only for him but it will be more dangerous for his family. He was also thinking that DL command will be loss if the attackers will get in to their system and into the lab where he left his son.

Jack was very frustrated already, he was driving fast as he can but still can't think right where could he possibly go.

And then a sudden idea came to his mind remembering his friend who has a parking area near their house two blocks before their house and he reaches to where he was just thinking. His friend's house.

He suddenly turn his car and went inside the village that he pass through. He look vividly to his surroundings when he was about to reach the house of his friend. He stop right next to the big house he was just looking at earlier.

"Here it is!" He exclaimed to himself.

He needs to move really really quick. He step out to his car still holding his gun and directly went to the garage area.

He tries to open the door in it but,

"Oh shocks! He got a password in it. Wait...wait.. I can still remember those password." he said while trying to remember the password of his friend's garage.

The garage was lock accessible by the outside with a hidden password in it. Good thing he was the one who created it when his friend ask his help installing a password in it. He was already hearing those weird sounds of the living-dead. He really need to move quickly.

He press unto the numbers and it suddenly,

'CLICK!' and that was the sound of the door of the garage and it was slowly opening.

"GOTCHA!" Jack exclaimed when he saw that the door was slowly moving upwards. He enters inside pointing his gun in front just in case an attackers would come out from nowhere. He search thoroughly and when he already made sure himself that there was no attackers (living-dead) he quickly move his ass out, remembering that he has guns and armors left in the car.

So he needed his car inside the carage. He step outside and went inside his car and drive it inside to the garage.

Upon clicking the remote of his car, he quickly move inside and started the engine of his car.

That quite surroundings echoed with the loud sounds made by Jack because of the sounds by clicking and starting of the engine of his car.

Attackers (living-dead) has heard those loud noise and immediately went to that way.

Jack glance to his watch,

"OH shit! It's already 6pm." he exclaimed without noticing the time earlier and it's dark outside already.

He had gotten inside the garage and immediately step out to his car and closes the door of the garage. He needs to move quickly. He already can hear those weird sounds again by the attackers (living-dead). And it's getting closer and closer.

After the automatic lock of garage door click. He hurriedly look for something that will block it so to make sure the living dead won't destroy it easily. He take a look around and saw a cabinet where the tools have been hidden at the right side near the garage door. He immediately walk fast to that way and tries to push it. It can't be move easily so he tried to push it harder and harder until it reaches the door of the garage.

"WOAH!" he sigh as he successfully did it.

And then the weird sounds became closer and louder and Jack tries to not make any sounds as much as possible.

He hold his breath for a while and walk slowly to where he heard those growling sounds. He look out to that small window and saw those wandering living-dead outside sniffing like trying to figure out where the sound came from. Some tries to smash the door of the garage and Jack suddenly move backwards. Slowly but quickly.

Jack was panting with nervousness and fear while he was on the side of the wall.

Sun was almost gone and it will be getting so dark very soon and he needs to think of a way where to hide himself. He thought that hiding just in there won't make him safe because there would be a possibility of the door to be destroyed once all the attackers (living-dead) will smash the door at the same time. Luckily he didn't lock the door of his car earlier so he could go inside without clicking the remote of the car. And that would cause a sound that would trigger those attackers (living-dead) whom where just outside those roller doors of the garage.

He drive the car in reverse to add the blockings of the door. Slowly.

After he successfully block it, he step outside from his car and about to walk his way to the other side but his foot suddenly touches a thing. A thing that was use in a car. A torque wrench. It slip away and bump it into the side of the cabinet near the other door to where you enter going inside the house. Jack hold his breath and his eyes were wide open when those sounds echoed inside the garage.

All the attackers (living-dead) who was wandering around just outside those doors of the garage heard that echoed sound of that thing. They run to the door of the garage and tried to smash it out. Growling sounds was everywhere. Very loud smashing was been heard.

While Jack was shock and after a couple of seconds his back from reality and tries to figure out what he was gonna do now. He quickly move his way to the other door and checks the lock and move the other cabinet to block the way. And he walk back to the center of the garage. He knows that smashing the doors of the garage won't take any longer and it will be broken in time. He kept on walking and walking while thinking what he gonna do next.

"OH God! What am I gonna do?" he speak out of nowhere.

Frustrated. Fear. Nervous. Was all he felt that time. Until he stepped unto something that is hard. It was where he was standing. He step unto it and move his feet away from it and saw something. He bent down to check what is it. He take off the cloth that was in it and saw a small door. A passage going under. He pulled it and it was a small room for where you can go and change the oil of the car. It was six stairs under.

The attackers (living-dead) doesn't stop from the smashing the doors outside. They are bumping their bodies from the door. And with their numbers, they could possibly broke the door in any minute now. He thought of a better idea, he saw a hose of water from nearby, he open the connected faucet into it and put it down to the little underground. (A good protection for himself.)

"A rope!" he exclaim.

He search from the cabinet he block on the other door. He successfully find a roll of it and he took it with him. Jack was all sweaty while moving around. Not only that but because of fear and worries about those attackers who continuously banging the door of the garage.

He went to the back of his car and got those grenades inside the bag. And went back to the garage door and uses the rope to tie up from both ends of the door. He tied those with the grenades connected in it.

Once the attackers (living-dead) successfully break in the door it will be the time the pin will also be pulled and BOOOM! It will suddenly explode very strongly. Still he needed a back up plan just in case the grenades won't kill all those attackers (living -dead) once. He needed a very very strong explosion in that way they will surely get killed.

He got a clear and definite idea and came up something in his mind.
