chapter 45

Paul's complexion looked better once Madison had been looking after him for a few hours.

Paul had been protecting Madison at all times since they met, but now it was up to Madison to protect Paul, who was lying on a hospital gurney asleep.

The infirmary was illuminated, which brought more comfort to Madison, who did not separate from Paul.

Madison had found a green plant, she thought about using it on Paul so that his wounds would heal and he could protect himself, but she had better not.

in that case it was better for madison to will suture Paul's wounds, who was fainting at the time, the effects of the plants were more powerful if they were combined red and white.

There were healing sprays, a more potent product made from the concentration of the plants, but I couldn't use them either, they were life-saving items that would save both of their lives at any time, the sprays were a second life.

In total the first aid sprays they had were 3, although they were produced in umbrella, the thing was, they were not very used because the combination of the green and red plants could do almost the same thing.

The first aid spray was a medicine created for the wealthy, while the green, red, blue plants were created for the masses and that is why in a hospital the maximum number of sprays there could be was five, although there were times when it depended on the hospital.

Madison packed the first aid spray in her bag, before returning to the green plant and placing it on a piece of paper, which would serve to keep it from spilling out of her bag.

Paul's snoring was heard in the room, madison didn't know how long it had been since he felt this good.

She wasn't hungry, she wasn't sleepy and best of all she didn't feel lonely, it was moments like these that made her really forget what she had done and that she could live.

Madison was closing her eyelids when she heard the footsteps of two people, which alarmed her and she grabbed the gun.

His hand was trembling, as he raised his arms pointing the gun at the door, he didn't know what they were whether they were humans or zombies.

Even if whatever it was it was very dangerous, they were all locked up as Paul had told her, humans are rational beings when we are in a stable environment, but we can also be beasts that only seek to survive and madison did not know what could happen if some person decides to kill them to keep the food and everything that was there, which they had achieved with effort, which almost cost them both their lives.

The footsteps of the people stopped at the door, when they opened it, Madison's nerves exploded, when she couldn't control herself and fired.

The sound of the gunshot ended up waking up Paul, who instinctively shouted Richard's name, who was about to be hit by the bullet.

Luckily Richard stopped and the bullet passed by him.

Madison was in shock, everything was silent when Alan instinctively raised his gun and pointed it at Madison, who was still in shock.

Luckily Paul stopped everything and was able to calm Alan and Richard, who was still out of it, having almost died.

Things calmed down after Paul stepped in and introduced Alan and Richard to Madison and vice versa.

"They are my partners...the youngest is Richard" Paul.

"The one that's almost my age is Alan" Paul.

"I'm sorry....again for separating you...I'm really very sorry "Madison bowed.

"It's okay....after I found out you were protecting Uncle Paul...there's really no hard feelings between us...so let's just forget it ever happened" Richard.

Richard was coping very well with his near-death at the hands of Madison, not in any way affected by what had just happened.

"Are you really okay Richard? "Alan.

Alan dropped the subject for the moment, as he began to relax again.

No one had noticed Richard's eyes, except Paul, who didn't take his eyes off Madison.

"A love at first sight...Richard is very innocent about this "said Paul to himself, who was hiding his urge to laugh.

Who ignored the look that madison was slyly giving him.

"So...how did you do since we got separated, we did terrible, except that we already know how I think we can escape. "Alan.

"Can you enlighten me...I just don't read minds "Spoke with sarcasm Paul, who was looking to bring out this tense atmosphere, on one side and innocent love, on the other side a father who almost saw his second son had almost died, which surprised Paul, as they must have gone through a lot, for Alan to be so overprotective of Richard and on the other side a wild cat who would not take her eyes off Richard and Alan at any second while looking as if she was protecting him as her baby.

"Well, we think the screaming zombie girl, who we found in the hallways that almost killed us, has the key to what we believe is a room that will lead us either to an exit or to a new section of the mansion.

"Well it's better to have hope....I hope the key that zombie has is to escape. "Paul.

Paul knew that it was not so easy, he could see that the sick man who controlled the scientists of the mansion had already planned to lock them in the mansion, so it was most likely that he had prepared it for those who opposed them, as a game.

But as luck would have it, someone had wrecked the umbrella boss's sick plans.

"It's possible....quite an umbrella had already prepared this, because it was too much of a coincidence that the zombie girl has the key to open something and the mansion is a maze...what I think is that the one who controls the mansion had everything planned for someone, in case he was locked up but that someone made chaos and it could not be completed, so we can only wait until we can get out. Paul.

The discussion ended when everyone decided to sleep, they hadn't slept for a while, so the first two to group together were Paul and Madison.

"Do you trust them? " asked Madison.

"Of course I do...don't tell me the little girl now feels jealous that she won't get to spend time in the sun with me "Said Paul, who was stretched out on his gurney, in derision.

"Of course not....es I don't see them as very capable, they won't be a burden to us, they will just eat and finish our food rations "said madison honestly.

"girl....ellos are very capable when it comes to taking down zombies, not to praise them but Alan is better at fighting and using weapons than I am, the only thing holding him back is that he doesn't like violence more than he can use. "Paul.

"the only reason he is a leader. It is because everyone voted for him or he would have been a doctor or a researcher, to get away from all violence.

"In short he is a coward "Madison.

"No...a coward is when someone runs away from reality out of fear, in his case he is not a coward...after all it takes a lot of courage to be a leader when you know very well that you hate all kinds of violence because of trauma, but you still do your best for those who support you. "Paul.

"Even so I think you're cooler" madison.
