(Tord's POV)

I knew for a few days now that the storm was going to hit several towns in one night, my father knew too since he is the Red Leader, basically the only army that isn't protecting the 'important' people and focusing on the aftermath evacuation. Yesterday we found out about the powerplant that the storm hit a day before, the radioactive substances were mixed into the storm's core, now killing people who aren't undercover and turning them into blood dripping cannibals. The storm has gotten faster too, it should now die out before it hits Australia and New Zealand, but Ashmaine is now in the Storm's path... Edd, Matt and Tom are in Ashmaine, I wanted to warn them before hand or at least ask my dad to pick them up and bring them here to the base, but... "Tord, your friends aren't the only ones out there. If we pick them up, then people will act and try to get themselves to safety as well" "But they're my friends-" "I'll put a dangerous storm warning out to towns like Ashmaine and the aftermath evacuation buses at Mary's Creek Bridge, put them at the top of the list of people who need to be evacuated first, but that's all I can do" I nodded my head, my father is being this nice to me for a reason, to show that Leaders need to know when to hold back, not focus on one person, but on millions. I looked down at my ankle where a light metal electronic bracelet was... ever since my success in destroying the robot, my father wanted this on me at all times, in fear of me almost dying again, its suppose to send back information about my heart rate and all that crap, so every mission I go on now, dad's staring at a tablet watching every heart beat. "Allison, hows the survivors's apartments going?" Dad asked his assistant "The above ground and underground apartments have been finished, but we would need to put about four to five people in each apartment in order to fit everyone. All Red Army members will not have to make room in their bedrooms" Allison answered "Good, inform all soldiers working on all town evacuations are to be up by three tomorrow to travel. All night shifters must get the buses ready for tomorrow" "Yes Sir". "Dad, let me go and help with the evacuation" "No Tord, watch from the cameras instead" "I've dealt with zombies before, me and my friends blow up a whole town of them-" "These things are different, they can out run you, they can jump and tackle their victims. I would like you by my side here, so I don't lose you. If anything happened to you, I would kill myself.... tomorrow you can come back here and watch through the camera's. If you see your friends, point them out and a soldier will get them onto a bus straight back here" "Yes father..." "Paul, take Tord back to his room" "Yes Sir" Paul walked me out of the command room, back towards our bedroom. "I don't get how you can put up with his crap" "Tord, I'm a soldier like you, he's our leader during our work hours" Paul said, adjusting the gun hanging off his back "He treats me like a kid" "But you are his kid" "No Paul, I want to get my friends out of there..." "At least one of your friends is beside you" Paul smiled, opening the bedroom door. Paul has been my friend ever since I started being trained for the Army by my dad, my dad made us share a room with two other people called Kid(the little kid from the Fun Dead episode) and Andrew after letting us officially apart of the Red Army, Paul is one of my only army friends I've got now. We walked into the room to see it empty "Kid's training and Andrew is helping with one of the evacuation buses" Paul said placing his gun down next to our bunk hearing a knock at the door, turning our heads to see Patryck "Hey guys, just got off guard shift right before the storm" Patryck smiled, he's another one of my army friends "H-Hey Patryck! um..." Paul didn't know what to say, he's had a crush on Patryck since two years ago, when we were eighteen "How was your shift?" I asked for Paul "Boring as ever!" Patryck sat down next to Paul, making Paul blush a bit "There's always fucken idiots claiming they have informantion about some government, soldiers who have no idea how they got out of the base without going through the front gates and it's worse when there's absolutely nothing at all" Patryck crossed his arms. "Dad won't go get my friends from Ashmaine, says that they'll have to take the evacuation buses like everyone else. Then I asked him if I could help with the evacuation, but I'm just a little outta control kid who needs 'supervision'" "Months ago, you got out of the base, no one can find that tunnel you made" "Yeah-" "You set a trainer's head on fire. Hacked the computer system and uploading all these weird things to the 'wanted man' kill list. Got yourself on the kill list and there's thousands of other shit you done too. You and Paul even let off a fire cracker and a firework in your room, I mean that's why there's a fucken huge scorch mark on the wall" "Yeah, that was so funny... I'm surprised your dad is still letting me copilot the airplanes" Paul laughed a bit "Paul, your laugh is unique and adorable!" Patryck smiled "You should laugh more often" Paul's face was dark red now "Well, I have to go, on another guard shift tomorrow for the evacuation buses, Night" "Night" Patryck walked out back towards his room as I just smirked at Paul. "Shut up" "Come on Paul! Just ask him out already" "Have you ever asked out your crush before?" I stared blankly at the ground, I've never even asked my crush if he likes me, maybe because he's always been yelling at me, fighting with me and actually blew up a robot with me inside... yeah, this whole time, I'd always liked Tom, but he always hated me, that's why I've never asked him. "The person hates my guts, if I ask, I'm pretty sure it would be a death wish. But Patryck is a nice, caring person, he even called your laugh adorable-" "Go to hell" "Already did, years ago" I laughed as Paul groaned and laid down on the bottom bunk...
