Guys i am back!! Sorry that it took so long. I had exams like the past 2 months and i was grounded. Now that my exams are over, I can continue writing but please do not expect too much from me as I might be busy with work.

It was just a very strong gust of wind that blew the doors open causing the doors to open and slam against the wall. I sighed in relief realizing that it was nothing. We checked to make sure that the coast was clear before running towards the front doors. However, we got ambushed before we could reach the front doors. The zombies must have heard the doors slamming and got attracted to it. We began shooting the zombies. From all my time killing zombies, I learnt 2 things. First, don't waste bullets as there may be a more powerful zombie we need to defeat. Second, a shot to the head kills zombies. Therefore, we can hit 2 birds with one stone. Kill the zombie and save bullets. Having trained to shoot the heads, we all began shooting the heads killing all the zombie within seconds.

Once we have killed all the zombies, we ran out of the building and towards the direction of where everybody was. As noise attracts zombies, we knew we didn't have a lot of time before there would be a lot of zombies crowding around the building. We had to hurry back and bring the rest of the people to a location far from there so that they would be safe. As we ran back, I saw a building that was also covered in glass but was very far away from the building we just ran from. I skid to a stop and continued to stare at the building. Everyone saw that I had stopped so they stopped and looked at me. "What is wrong, Luna?" All I did was point at the building I was staring at and they looked at it.

"We should go and check it out before we go back. But we need to warn the others. Peter, Winton, Bert follow me, the rest head back to the camp and warn them. Have them pack everything up and ready to move. Go!" I ordered. I began running to the building with the 3 guys. "To avoid any more zombies coming to our location, we should stop using our guns and use our knives. Ready your knives", I told the three of them. We slung our guns around our bodies so that they would not get in the way and we took out our knives (well swords in my case) and readied them as we continued running to the building. When we reached the building, we cautiously walked in and began to look around.

"Luna, there seems to be power in this place. Should we take the lifts to go up?" Peter asks me. 'Hmmm' I thought. "It is a good idea, however, there is a problem of the zombies hearing the lifts and coming to this place." I said to Peter. 

"Maam, I have come to this place before. The lifts are silent and very quick so nobody will notice anything." Winton says.

Very well, we shall take the lifts.

Meanwhile at the camp,

Sam POV

My group ran back to the camp to find everyone asleep with some guards. I immediately ran to where Ella, the second-in-command, was sitting on guard. The moment she saw us, she stood up and ran up to us. "Where is Luna? What happened? Is she okay?" She immediately questioned us on the whereabouts of our leader.

"Chill Ella, She is fine. We got into some trouble at one of the buildings so she told us to run back and get everybody to pack up and get ready to move. She has found another potential location. Peter, Winton and Bert are with her. Nothing will happen to her." I could see the gears in her head turning as she was thinking.

"Got it. Get the other guards to wake everyone up and ask everyone to pack everything before Luna comes back." She gave out the orders as well as Luna. It is no wonder she is second-in-command. We immediately went about carrying out her orders. As soon as we explained the situation to the other guards, we began waking up everyone and told them to pack up. I hope that Luna has found a suitable location.

Back at the building,

Luna POV

We went to the top floor and found the entire area deserted. There was nothing except for the columns that were holding the roof up. The entire place was white with windows all over the side of the building. There was a door at the side of the room. While the others were looking outside the window for any threats, I quietly crept towards the door just in case there were zombies behind the door. I reached for the door knob and with swift motion, I opened the door and readied my gun. I lowered my gun when I saw that there was no danger. There were only tables, that were all white, stacked up. 'We can use the tables to barricade the door' I thought.

"Alright! We will use this place as our new base. We should get back." I ordered Peter, Winton and Bert to follow me. We quickly left the place and I made a mental note on the way there. At least we have found a new place to stay.
