Chapter 15: New Major

"what do you think they are talking about in there? "

Outside the door, the group were very curious about what david and the major were talking about in the room.

"Maybe the major wants david to help him, or he is trying to recruit him. "

"You should stop making assumptions, they might be discussing something important in there. "

Peter and tony started guessing what they were talking about inside, only to be stopped by the captain.

"Then we will have to wait for them to come out. "

Stephany finally brought the discussion to an end.

While all of this was going on outside, inside important things were being discussed.

"with monsters and zombies, it is time for all humans to unite and fight a common threat, but there are still dumb people who want to take power. "

"The worst thing is, they don't even have the strength to take it. "

The major just kept complaining about people like Kirk, and how they don't want humans to be united.

While david and the major were discussing in the room, outside in front of the door.

"So... Can I go? "

David asks as he starts to stand up, he was not comfortable talking with a major or even anyone.

"Sorry I forgot my purpose in calling you. "

The major remembering why he called david starts explaining.

"You know that you are at your prime at twenty something, but I'm already fifty seven. "

After the major said this, he stopped and just looked at david.

"Okay. "

David doesn't really understand.

The major looking at david knows that he will never figure it out.

"I won't delay, I want you to replace me and take over this base. "

The major finishes what he wanted to say and then smiles at david.

"But that is against the law. "

David replies to him, he doesn't want to get imprisoned because of this old man.

"You are talking about law in the apocalypse. "

David just looks at david as though he was a mad man, a man is worrying about the law in an apocalypse.

"Yes. "

David starts tapping his hand on his leg, there is no way you would not be nervous in such a situation.

"No need to be nervous, you can take over and I will help you. "

"Can I turn down the offer? "

"Of course, all you have to do is pass all the soldiers under me and exit through the gate. "

The major and david start conversating with each other.

"My old friend, do you know how long I have wanted to be the head of this base. "

After saying this, david proceeds to shake the hand of the major, there is nothing wrong with being shameless.

"Okay, let me announce it. "

The major proceeds to open the door, and standing there was the group all looking him.

"Follow me, I have an announcement to make and I want everyone to be there. "

The group and all the soldiers follow him as he goes to announce the big news.

Arriving at the training yard, the major looks at all the soldiers training, this was a scene that brought him joy.

"All soldiers gather. "

Immediately after he shouted, all the training soldiers stop and look at him, then getting in formation, they line up in front of him.

"As most of you may know me, I am major armstrong and the head of this base. "

"As of now I am no longer major, I am replace by this young and talented man here. "

Immediately after this announcement, the entire base is shaken.

"Major, please don't do this. "

Different soldiers with different motives try to stop the major, a lot of them were waiting to take over after him and some didn't want him to leave.

"Enough, my decision is final. "

"Welcome your new major. "

"Welcome new major. "

In the military, obedience and discipline are a must for every single soldier.
