I awoke in a cold sweat from the same dream that help develop my chronic insomnia. I lay there frozen in thought, as my memories of the day my parents died. Flooded my head until there was little room for any thing else . I got up and got dresses, armed ,and Through on my bag. as Mathilda hacked a loud beep cough .
I opened my maneuvering through the hall way until I came to the open door way of the monitoring room. There my brother sat looking at his screen and taking notes all the while coughing."yo mo bro I'm taking the guys out for food and stuff. "I say cheerfully .
" Your just (he has a coughing fit ) using that as an excuse to look for medicine." He said seeing straight through me .
"So what I can kill to birds with one stone. What if others get sick to dude ? We have to be prepared for that possibility." I stated
" Whatever. (cough ) you do what you want just come back safe " . He said before once again monitoring the ships.
Nowadays a single cough can meet death especially since resources have become so scarce. Our new hideout is in old school building surrounded by trees. In the courtyard I can see all of armed Patrol group that was not currently patrolling exercising and doing it drills.My second in command Briana asked what the plan was. A group of people mostly men armed with assault weapon ranging from big and small gun to reusable weapon like swords ,knives, Bow and arrows and ext.Just about any thing that can easily be used to kill . They waited for there orders open .
You could tell some of them were not a costumed to being in a life or death scenario.But they had grown over the year under my lead .they have spirit a will to survive and something to fight for and that's all you really need to win a war.

I asked " That's good Though let's go on foot. " I suggested " .Can't wait resource's. what's are status on overall health . "
" OK .we're seeing three more sick at the ending of every week ." She said looking at her clip bored .

"OK good .were looking for food and medicine more and more of us or getting sick .head out I'll be in the back defending the rear if need be " I relied.

It crashes on it landing gear and makes a loud scratching sound as it scraps the asphalt of the road the group is waking on . The crash starts rose and leave marks on the road .)
"What the bloody hell! " I(rose) scream.
(To men get out of the helicopter and walk over to the group. )"Briana you talk to them I'm a bit pissed off right now. " I stated clenching my gun with a fearsome scowl on my face .
