Dreyard looked at him and nodded his head as if telling him something that we are oblivious about.

“It's the only place that we haven't checked yet after that incident,” he answered as if he doesn't have any choice but to go there.

I don't know what they are talking about, but based on the expressions they are showing, it's a serious one.

As if something dangerous is just about to happen.

And what incident? I am clueless, but I just couldn't bring myself to ask since they look as if inside a very heated conversation.

“It'll be dangerous for them,” Marcus speaks, that even Dreyard didn't mention the place, they are aware of what Dreyard is pertaining.

Now, I couldn't help but be curious. At the same time, my heart is beating so fast and loud from the nervousness I've suddenly felt, that when I looked in my hand, they are trembling a little that I hid by wiping them on my pants.

“It's the remaining place that has resources. We don't have any choice.” Dreyard's voice dominated the place and from the tone of voice he used, it was as if he's saying that the conversation ends there that his companions didn't bother questioning his decisions again.

As I observed his companions, I couldn't help but get more nervous at the expression they're showing. Dread and terror, that's how I could explain their expressions that keep my nervousness intensifies.

“Miss Harper, are you ready? You can still back out.”

I looked at the man who's acting as our leader right now, to Dreyard, as his gaze averted from Zeon and to me as if he's waiting for my answer.

Zeon also turned his attention to me as if this one will be based on my decision.

Pero kung hindi ako sasama ay hindi ba't mas nakakahiya?

It will show that we're only here to put more heaviness from what they're feeling when we are supposed to help them carry it.

Hindi kami dumating dito upang magpabigat at hayaan silang gawin ang mga gawain, kundi ang tumulong sakanila at sabay-sabay gawin ang aming dapat gawin.

“No, we'll be going.” That's my decision.

Tumango si Dreyard sa aking sagot bago humarap sa aming makakasama.

“Let's go. We won't use any vehicle since those zombies will only be attracted to the sound of it. It'll be a little far, please bear with it.”

I nodded my head. And he starts to lead the way.

Napag-alaman kong sa girna ng siyudad na ito kami pupunta, ang may napakalaking mall rito na syang napapalibutan ng napakaraming zombies, at iyon ang dahilan kung bakit gabi kami sasabak ay para makaiwas sa tingin ng mga ito.

The path is too dark. We rarely see anything yet the lights above the place are enough to keep us going.

There is still electricity in this city, which thankfully they haven't cut it. Yet there's only selected place where city lights are still alive and those are parts that didn't receive too much damage.

Some lights are blinking as if they'll go out any minutes from now. The place is nerve-wracking silent, but not so silent since there's still an announcement that could be heard through the place.

The same announcement that we've always heard inside the military.

“The quantity of confirmed deaths has exceeded thousands. The governor has called a state of emergency. There had been loads of bodies on the streets due to the virus that suddenly rose from nothingness. Panic spread worldwide after the leaked record from WHO showed that there's still no cure for this disease. The entire country of America was placed under martial law. All residents are required to report to their designed quarantine. You can still rise with us. . . take into account when you are lost in the darkness, search for the light.”
