Priest of Death - Part 1

A few days have passed since the first infection in Eastern Europe, and things have gone horribly wronger than the Organization could have expected it. And by horribly wrong we mean the evolution of Z viruses known by many as zombies, walkers, infected etc. Their evolution was not predicted by the Organization, and the way of their behaviour.

They found out zombies, who were Undead type, who could still have the capacity of human thinking. They could understand humans, talk back to them, and still has the way to differentiate zombies from humans. But still, this type of Undeads has come with a twisted disadvantage and advantage. This type of viruses corrupt people minds.

For now, only three cases of these Undeads have been reported in the artificial islands, and one of them is the same pink-haired girl who ran from Cluj with a bunch of people. That girl is Ana-Maria, and she is the only one who could somehow control her composure with this virus and still gain the capacity to use their powers on Organization missions. The other two have been evaded the artificial islands, and are on the run in Africa

At a normal looking airfield on one of the artificial islands, a squad of people dressed in hard uniform that can depict the one of the Organization who couldn't match the ones of the riot equipment used in the USA to chill the rioters and looters. A soldier who is wearing this type of uniform usually has a helmet to protect from bite, blood and acidic vomit or blood which is corrosive, a hard armour that protects the upper body that is the equivalent of three Kevlar vests, arms made of metal to protect from bites, legs covered with metal wires, and shoes which are mostly used in mountain climbing. All the soldiers of that squad have taken their helmets off and are heading to a tent where they have been called for a meeting.

From that squad there is Alina, Lee and Klaus, three survivors who were in the group who ran away from Cluj to get here, on what it looked like to be a habituated island from Greece, now it is a big camp of the survivors in Eastern Europe. These three went through Hell a few days ago, survived a plane crash in Sophia, then run on the entire Bulgaria, Macedonia, and Greece highways, and managed to overcome hordes of zombies with their good combat and luck. They have lost people… Good people who could have been a good addition to this community.

The group of eleven soldiers, are arriving at the tent where they have been summoned. From there, emerges a man, dressed like a Greek Army General, holding a clipboard with a file. The General looks at the soldiers, who did their salute, salutes them back, and he tells a soldier, who is the commander of this unit, he tells the person in charge to choose six people who will go into Serbia, and the rest will stay here, where they will be sent later in Algeria to evacuate a group of people who have been trapped in a warehouse for two weeks.

The commander looks at the clipboard that is stating the details of the mission, he then looks at his squad and rolls the names.

"Kay, Zaka, Pumba, Alina, Lee and Klaus. The names I have been called are going with me in Serbia. We have to clean a village that we could use as a headquarters for a small base." he looks at the clipboard again. "Is anyone from here familiar with Serbia? From the group of six people I've called?"

"I am." says Klaus raising his hand, then walks in front. "I had relatives in there. I used to go in my childhood on holidays."

"Good." says the Commander happy, then he orders the remaining troops to leave. "You know to read the signs?"

"Yes." says Klaus. "But most are in English nowadays."

After this, he orders the six people to pack their things and be prepared to leave.

Two days ago, middle of night, in Serbia, on a city called on the map as Sirogojno, at a small church from a near village, where corpses lay on the ground, decapitated or crucified, there are four people, who are tied to their hands on their back, standing on a podium where more than twenty villagers are looking at them, holding torches and pitchforks in front of the punished people.

The four people on the podium are four males, all survivors who were trying to come to a city by the name of Uzice, where it is believed to be an evacuation point of Serbia Army, and there are people who are kept safe by dozens of trained professionals with guns and from Military. It is just like one of those bases from Sweden we discovered in Part 4, but this one, might be better in terms of security and population.

The four males, are looking terrified at the couple of people who are looking at them angry and holding the torches. They all are trying to move or escape from these restrained, or weaken them, but it is no use to break this metallic rope who was used to restrain them.

These four people got into this, only because they've entered the church and demanded help for another person, who unfortunately died as they got in there. He got bitten by a zombie in the neck, and the moment it turned, he got killed by one of the persons from this group. It was too dark for the survivors to see who has done this thing.

The four people are named Goran, Zoran, Dragan and Milan if we have to take the name tags from their "Kaufland" vests they are wearing. This might tell that these people have been working in Kaufland, a hypermarket known in Eastern and West of Europe, and from those days, they decided to keep their vests on. Goran is the guy with a horrible scar on his right side of the mouth. Dragan is the short one bandaged on his left hand from a bullet who hit his hand a week ago. Zoran is the person with tore jeans and long blonde hair. And Milan is the bald man who looks like to be in his 40s by the facial traits a person at that age would possess by now.

As people yelled at the executed things like "Sinners!", "Zombies!", "Devils!" and many more, there comes a person. The man who was walking the stairs of the podium is dressed as an Orthodox priest, walks on a slow step to the podium, holding a golden cane and a bible in the other hand. The Priest tells its audience to stop yelling, and he proceed to speak with them.
