Last Song - Part 14

***

In the helicopter, on the one where Michael is in it, he shoots a few dozens of the zombies on the street by using the machine guns. He does this because it would be futile to use a sniper rifle, especially when the helicopter is at a low altitude, as low as this one where they can almost touch certain rooftops of buildings from Mumbai. The soldiers in that helicopter continue to shoot the zombie, and says the following message in English to the people who are still alive. "For anyone alive! Proceed to Pythagoras Island. An island located west direction from Indian Ocean. It has foods, shelter and equipment to help you protect yourself against zombies."

The helicopter passes by a certain building that is focussing on recording songs from artists and sell it to the public for money. They passed the building entitled by the name of "Sound and Vision India Mumbai". The place where our five survivors are looking at the helicopter and they have taken the message he was spreading. The group of five survivors are trying to wave at the helicopter to catch its attention, but on the night, and the helicopter having its lights turned off, things weren't so easy for them.

"They will not take us?" asks Tarya.

"They'll not." respond Jayo upset by this thing.

"They expect we can walk by ourselves to their artificial islands." says Jayce to the group.

"And how we will do that? We go now?"

"No." says Jayce to the group. "We will try in the morning. Maybe we'll get some help or an available boat for us. Who knows."

Morgan takes a final look outside to see a few jets who are flying on a high speed on the sky, together with a few helicopters who are most likely used to clear the hordes of the zombies from the sky. Then, he draws the curtains of the window, he tells the group to rest because tomorrow will be a big day for them. And they all start sleeping wherever they manage to squeeze in.

Tomorrow morning, on the building "Music and Sound" the group of five survivors, two females and three males are packing up some things. Kataro has got himself a knife, together with Jayo. Tarya only carries a backpack with supplies they would need it, supplies such as food, med kits and a few spare clothes for them, they've found in the studio. Bibi is carrying a backpack with supplies and she is using a kitchen knife to defend herself from these creatures. And Jayce, is using a handgun he came here with and a sawn-off shotgun he found on the rooftop of the place. Last night, a helicopter dropped a small crate with only a gun, food and medicine for them. And it was thanks to Jayce who was waving to the helicopter.

"That guy should've thrown more than a gun, food and medicine." says Jayo feeling pissed.

"This is enough." says Jayce holding the sawn-off shooting, loading it with two of the twenty shells he received. "Twenty bullets… These are enough."

"Enough?"

"We aren't going there to kill all of them, Jayo." says Kataro to Jayo.

"We ain't. Our objective is to get out of here and get ourselves to the beach. Like what I've discussed with Morgan." he looks at fiancé. "Have you prepared the shuffle?"

"Yes, babe." says Bibi to Jayce showing her phone a playlist.

"Alright. Be ready to turned it on." says Jayce to Bibi, and he looks at Kataro and Jayo. "You two have connected the speakers on Bluetooth."

"Sure." says Jayo. "Connected all the loudspeakers near the building, and a Bluetooth music box that I've thrown in the morning on the tree. This will may attract zombie to the three."

"Hopefully." says Jayce. "Turn the music on."

Bibi plays the playlist. The first song it plays is the first song of the band. When that song played, the group, armed with weapons and ready to run, they break the door, kill two zombies from the hallway, and leave the place. After leaving the structure, the group of five people starts running to the beach. They did not want to take a car to avoid the multitude risks of having one in this scenario. The group is led by Jayce and Tarya being on the back, scared of these things but not willing to die in their hands.

The group runs on the sidewalk, because the streets were filled with animal and human corpses, cars and construction materials who have fallen from structures. Jayce shoots one zombie who was on the rooftop and about to jump on them. He shoots its legs, making the thing lose its balance and fall from the third floor on its head, shattering in pieces. Jayce killed the thing by using his pistol.

"Must be careful around jumpers. They are tricky." says Jayce to the group and continues to run on a marathon level.

The group walks ahead, hitting zombies on their way, or dodging them like Tarya does it. Jayce kills a few of these zombies on their run to the nearest Beach, while the other four members are hitting the creatures or pushing them back. It seemed like the music did attract some zombies, but not all of them. Thanks to the speakers with a loud volume, the group managed to avoid mass population. They could've avoided all of them, but this would have been impossible because zombies can also sense human meat thanks to evolution of the past months.
