Valley of Flood - Part 32
Ten days have passed since this incident. Everything has returned to normal. Not the apocalypse, the calm before this group of terrorists have arrived at their lives. The community has grown bigger and numbers. The safe zone in Curtea de Argeș it's the same. But a thing remains the same. The zombies… who are now becoming deadlier than ever.
On the safe zone from Curtea de Argeș, on this fine morning, a group of six people have left the safe zone, all equipped in armour anti-biting, carrying with them assault rifles and machetes. The six people who are going on this mission are four males and two teenagers who were days ago in a similar mission like this.
The two teenagers are of course Andra and Viktor since they know this city and have some good skills on fighting zombies.
From the other four males soldiers there is Ron, who has come into this safe zone five days ago because he wanted to transfer himself to the safe zone. And on those five days Ron has done a lot of things for the safe zone like crafting melee weapons like baseball bat with nails like in video games, a made-up javelin with butterfly cake and arrows for their bows. Without his help, the safe one would have been relaying on their equipment whop is starting to run low on the ammunition and start to deteriorate.
"What is the plan?" asks Ron in a broken Romanian language to the leader of this squad, who is the same one where Viktor and Andra were involved.
"You don't know what are we doing?" asks a soldier to Ron.
"I did not understand it very well. I may be knowing some Romanian, but I still have issues on the conversation." he said to Ron in English language.
"Our mission is to check the apartments near our safe zone." says a soldier to Ron in a not so broken English language. "We need to make sure the apartments near the safe zones are not infected with zombies when we will be expanding."
"I understand." responds Ron who understand most of it.
"What's the first one?" ask Viktor to leader.
"We split up." says the leader of this mission. "You, Andra and Ron are going to the ones where the two bakeries, the bar, the drug store, the small shops, the café, the betting shop."
"You mean these?" asks Andra pointing at the doors of the backside of the first bakery.
"Yes." responds the leader. "And me with other two soldiers are going to the other ones where it is the kindergarten located. Our objective is to check the places, neutralize any zombie alive in there, throw all of the zombies from the windows where later we will be burning them. Remember, there have been almost four months since the first infection, it is likely there will be mushrooms growing on those zombies, so it would be better to avoid them and use the masks I gave you when you enter the building. Understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
"Good." says the leader and starts to put his breathing mask, then the others are following his example to equip the mask.
When they were done, the group of six survivors splits into two groups each with three people. One group, Andra, Viktor and Ron, are going to the block door, while the other group are running to their right side, where a car park is located, and several doors to several block buildings.

In the community of The Organization from Valea Iașului, in the inside of this fortified zone, Mihaela and other women have recovered from their injures they were suffering the time all four of them were kidnapped and used as sex toys as Maria and Mihaela described it ten days ago. Mihaela and the other women have recovered after this incident.
Mihaela is heading into the cafeteria to take her well deserved breakfast to start this morning. Today she has a lot of work to do on checking the status of the patients who were brought here after some injures they sustain in a mission where they encountered five zombies classified on the class F.
Entering the cafeteria, Mihaela sees there are a lot of people who have decided to take their breakfast. From these people in here, some are familiar faces to Mihaela such as Daniel, Gancea, Petre and two soldiers, eating together at a table, Maria and Ramus eating at their own table. Mihaela goes to the counter, she asks for a coffee and a croissant from the cashier who brings it to her in a minute. She takes her breakfast and goes to the table where two other doctors are eating together a few eggs and their tea.
"Good morning, Mihaela!" says one of the doctors to Mihaela approaching them.
"Good morning, Andrea." says Mihaela and sits on the free space. "How are you all?"
"We're good." says the male doctor from this table wearing a badge that displays his name, Mateo B. "We are all good."
"How were the patients this night?" asks Andrea to Mihaela since she was the one who supervised the patients this night.
"All are in stable conditions. All seven of them."
"That's good to hear." says Mateo to Mihaela.
"It isn't strange most of the zombies have evolved already?" asks Mihaela to his small group.
"It's really strange." says Mateo. "We all thought there will be only one type of virus into this world. But many variants have appeared. Class Normal, Class Deadly, Class F and Undeads. But we never saw the last kind."
"You don't believe it is true?" asks Andrea to Mateo. "That there are humans who can control zombie form."
"I am not sure." says Mateo to Andrea. "A part of me says this thing is impossible, and other part believes things like this are still humans. But I am certain, if we find Undeads, we must capture them, preserve them and done the testing."
"Why we should even test these things?" asks Andrea to Mateo.
"You think we can make a vaccine from those?" asks Mihaela to Mateo.
"Yes." says Mateo looking at Mihaela. "A vaccine. An antidote. This may be possible."
The three continue their breakfast in silence. While they were eating, all were discussing about some small topics, like what books they have read from the improvised library from this community, and about the expanding of the community walls.
On the table of the soldiers with two survivors, all of them, finishing their meal, raise up from their chairs and are going outside where they will be going onto their next mission. The next mission is to drive on the Vidraru Den to check its status and if it will collapse. And to go in there, the team will take a helicopter instead of their cars since the tunnels and the roads have collapsed a long time ago.
