The call came in as suspected, and three men dressed in military logo immediately waited for their orders. They had currently been tasked with watching the quarantine zone, but the infection had spread faster than anticipated.The line opened up, and an ordering voice played on speaker.
"What is the current position of project Reunion?"
One of the three men replied, "He is currently in a farm house with an unknown amount of occupants. His health is deemed critical enough to be removed from the premises if ordered to."
The man who talked had a slight southern accent to him that indicated a lean towards a life in Mississippi. He was the shorter of the three, but made up for it in muscle. His build was masculine as his Black hair streaked with gray showed a seniority over the others.
The voice waited moments before replying.
"Has he been infected by the undead?"
Again, the same man replied, "No sir. He was shown as safe to enter there home, and was checked before anything else took forth between the brief time he was still awake."
"Good. Stay at your spots. I don't want you moving at all unless it comes directly from me. From now on use the satellite to convey surveillance on him. We need him oblivious to our actions."
The man seemed relieved when he spoke, and the other three slackened their positions slightly."Yes sir. Understood. Is there any word from surveillance team two, and three? What about team four? I heard that they had a break in." The words seemed irrelevant, but was held as critical motivation for the three men.
"Team four is a confirmed K.I.A. We picked up their deaths from over head feed. As for teams two and three... they are still setting up a base of operations in strategic locations. Teams three is moving now while team two is still looking for a secure location. No word from both in a twelve hour period."
The call ended with those words, and the men resumed their business. The tallest one, with barely enough meat to cover his bones, returned to a computer where he watched a live feed of the farmhouse.
The third man resoundingly spoke up, "Just another day in hell boys. We've almost got this wrapped up."
The other two stopped for a moment before laughing, and then proceeded to watch over project reunion.
=============
This is getting... interesting.
I can't say what this has to do about anything, but only time will tell.
Yes, there will be more of these to come.
Enjoy for now, and peace.
