Almon grabbed the keys from the key holster and walked over towards the closet area, he unlocked the closet door twisting the key into the knob. He walked through the door and pulled the yellow bucket closer towards the water hose. Almon turned the switch and watched the water pour into the bucket. He grabbed the bucket and brought it out to the Lobby with him. Almon knods towards James Yeargan standing behind dunking counting his draw. "Hope you have a good rest of your night" Almon said as he began mopping the ground with the wet mop. Almon continued to mop for the next 15 minutes. He walked by the chargers and towards the office area. He then put the mop inside and grabbed the other mop. He then wet the mop, and began mopping the bathrooms. *sounds of the TV blaring* "people are now coming back to life and trying to hurt others before being shot in the head by police, headlines say, this could be start-" Almon shut the TV off clicking the button and finished up mopping. Almon picked his phone up and began to take a video of his work. 12:00 A.M Almon began clocking out and signing off the draw. "Have a good day Jermey" Almon said as he began walking away from the counter and out the front door "yeah, you too" Jermey answered.

Gunshots continued to fire repeatedly, Almon pointed his Golden revolver out the window while having his head ducked. He continued to pull the trigger multiple times while reloading in between. Soilders continued to drop left and right as they continued to fire. Almon looked over at Jordan, her body all scarred up blood everywhere, then back over to Charlotte, "EVERYONE NEEDS TO COME UP HERE NOW" Almon yelled to Charlotte in the middle of the firing. Charlotte nodded her head and ran outside the room and downstairs. Both Robby and Jordan laid there dead. Almon looked out the window pointed the Golden Revolver towards one of the men and pulled the trigger. The bullet entered there head Dropping them to the ground. They laid in the dirt face first. Then a bullet struck Almons other shoulder. Eric came into the room with his AK and began shooting non-stop outside the window hitting 3 soilders. Dante quickly waved his arms up calling in for the remaining soilders and himself to retreat, Almon looked outside the window he then looked at Eric "Do we have any explosives" Almon whispered. "Yeah we have 4 things of Dynamite that we found scavenging I have one of them on me here" Eric said as he handed it to Almon. Almon pulled the lighter he used to smoke from his pocket and lit the Dynamite throwing it outside causing it explode as soon as it landed as the string completely finished burning. All the soilders blew up. Some dismembered some bloody. One of the soilders were in flames. Dante just midst away from the explosive when it went off peaked his eyes open, realized he wasn't dead and slowly got up and began running. Almon and Eric ran downstairs and towards the door. "I'm almost positive we killed them all including the leader I just want to make sure" Almon said as he opened the door and walked outside. "Were you counting how many of them there were" Almon asked. "No but this looks about right" Eric said as he holstered his Pistol. Almon began to holster his golden revolver. "I think we actually did it you think this is him" Almon asked looking at one of the burnt bodies. "I mean there's no way to offically ID him but yeah, that looks like him" Eric responded. Noah came outside. Alfred came outside as well looking at all the bodies. "Who exactly are we looking for" Alfred asked. "It doesn't matter" Almon answered "he's dead" Almon then said again as they began bringing the bodies to a spot and piling them. "You think it's safe to head back home" Eric asked. "Yeah let's just pile these up and then yes maybe get some rest and first thing tmr we head back maybe gather people up along the way we did good, things will look up I promise Alvaro is dead Dante is dead those are two less people we have to worry about I mean come on we aren't even on IMFs radar they don't care about us we just stick to our own build our world better stronger and we should be good. Hey do you see that" Almon said as he walked over to one of the bodies with a buldge sticking out of there leather jacket. "I can't really tell what this guy looks like but he's def on the skinnier side" Almon said as he lifted the leather jacket to find a computer. "What is this" Almon said as he opened it. A video quickly popped up of a man with a beard almost. *Times are changing its me Johnathan the walkers are and will get stronger, people will begin dying from random diseases left and right walkers will become harder to kill, hordes will become stronger, the governments have been planning this for months, Daniel idk if you'll receive this but we have to stop fighting for the CAF soon Or we will die, there's no happy ending for anyone" The man said as Almon looked at Noah and slowly shut it. "I wonder what he means by the governments maybe there people" Almon said. Noah nodded. Almon placed the computer where it was and brought the body over with Noah, the cold brushing against his pale hands. "We have to get out of here now, there's no point in continuing to pick the bodies up, we should get rest now and leave around the morning time" Almon said to Noah. "Agreed" Noah Answered as they began to walk inside towards the destroyed shack. "What do you think they mean by planning this" Noah said. Almon stopped and looked at Noah, "to be honest I don't know, it could mean anything maybe there setting the hordes up creating them to be stronger who knows" Almon answered as they walked into the shack.

January 20th, 2030, 2:53 A.M Cuba CAF Headquarters

A man with a Badge and soilder outfit with a ranking A-2 on his shoulder and the name Johnathan Hedge continued to type on a computer. Bars at the corner of the screen showed a signal with the small letters CAF next to it. "Is he not getting any of the videos or messages I don't understand this at all the CAF signal was literally stationed throughout all of the United States not only as a surveillance system but as a system to where we can contact each other at all times" Johnathan said to himself as he continued to type. A knock was heard at the door. Johnathan shut his computer down immediately and stood off the chair slowly walking to the door, "Its me open up" a Familiar female voice spoke. Johnathan opened the door and the women entered pushing him against the wall. "Listen not right now there's so much going on and Daniel hasn't answered me either neither has Dante believe it or not" Johnathan said. "Why don't we just leave right now and we just don't look back, that's what we want right" The women said. "Cause Alissa, actually" Johnathan began to think quickly as he grabbed his computer placed it on his couch. Then he grabbed his bag and began packing it, he then got out of his soilder uniform and changed into a regular everyday outfit. "Let's go" Johnathan said as Alissa and himself walked out the door.

Alfred got out of bed, he slowly looked around, everybody was asleep. He walked over towards one of his black bags and quickly looked through it. He saw that he still had his Walkie and quickly closed it up. He then turned his head and walked over towards the window he noticed that all the ice melted and there were walkers all over the place preventing them from getting anywhere let alone himself. He thought to wake everyone but decided to grab the rifle on the ground next to Stephan instead. He walked over towards the front door. He thought to himself for a second then without any thought, Alfred burst through the creaky shack door, rifle at the ready. Moonlight illuminated the carnage outside – walkers swarmed, their eyes fixed on the shack.
"Get back!" Alfred yelled, firing his rifle.
Bullets tore through walkers, but more emerged from darkness. The sun still not in sight, Alfred swung his rifle like a club, crushing skulls.
A walker grasped Alfred's ankle, pulling him down. He kicked, but another walker seized his leg. "Get off, GET OFF" Alfred screamed as the walkers began pinning Alfred, their jaws sinking into his flesh. He felt one of his  ribs crack as the jaw clenched, his lungs began to collapse. A walker's teeth ripped Alfred's throat open, silencing his cries. Noah running towards the door hearing Alfred yell get off opened it quickly realizing there were over 6 walkers devouring Alfred Alone. Noah slowly shut the shack trying to draw away the sound. He ran over to Stephan shaking him awake. Stephan opened his eyes quickly looking at Noah who put his finger over his mouth, "there's tons of walkers outside and we have no chance of getting out of here right now or at all I'm guessing it's around 5, 6 am right now obviously we can't tell time but the sun is just starting to come up and there's still no light outside, do you think we should wake everyone or wait it out see what happens?" Noah asked As Stephan slowly stood up. He walked over towards the window. "Yeah this looks pretty bad, how did walkers even get up here, also what are they eating" Stephan asked. "I'm assuming Alfred he's not over where he was last night I heard a scream but I was too late, He said get off or something" Noah said. Almon began slowly opening his eyes, he looked over at Courtney who laid on his arms. He kissed her Forehead and lifted his head up and looked around the blood stains from Jordan and Robby still remained on the ground. He stood up the cold breeze brushing against his shoulders as he grabbed his shirt and put it on, he then slowly opened the door and closed it then proceeded downstairs, as he got downstairs the sound of agitated voices grew louder. He walked into the living room area to see Noah and Stephan conversating. "What is i-" Almon looked outside to see the place surrounded, "what the hell even happened" Almon asked. "Must of been the gunfire" Noah said walking over towards him. "I say we grab one of our new Aks and shoot them all" Stephan said standing up. "Also Alfred died he ran our there trying to shoot them himself and that plan didn't go so well, we kinda lost a Rifle. I say we handle this problem now before everyone's up so that we can leave by the time they wake up, I wanna go home build up what we can and start our lives over." Noah said as he grabbed one of the Aks from next to the door. He then opened the door and began shooting around killing the walkers, Almon and Stephan grabbed guns as well and walked over towards the front door, the Walkers continued to be shot down until there was 2 remaining. Almon walked over to one shooting it in its Head, then turned Loaded and shot the other dropping both with his Golden Revolver "Let's go start waking everyone up were leaving now" Almon said as Noah and Stephan began running back in. Almon looked around searching to see if there were any left. None in sight, Almon began walking back towards the house.
