Code Zulu Alpha: Nerd in the Apocalypse!

Chapter 33



Chapter 33: 33

My aunt cooked Chicken Lomi for tonight. It’s made with thick egg pasta with chicken and vegetables on a very thick and rich soup. She even boiled an egg for each of us to accompany it with. Slurping sounds are heard and a few exclaims from a burn is what you would hear in the poolside area. Kaley is sitting next to me while I saw Rin and Olivia hawking at us from afar.


“You seeing the two?” Kaley said.

“Yeah, they’ve been stealing looks at us for several minutes now. Want me to talk to them?” I said.

“No! What would you even say? Call me big brother now?” Kaley remarked.

“Pfft! What the heck! Where did that come from? I think I’ve been influencing you too much with my sense of humor.” I said.

“Hmm? It’s not that dark, it’s just a bit edgy, I swear that if you do that again, I’ll also stab you with this knife that you gave me.” She said.

“Hah! I’ll stab you with ‘something else’…” I whisper.

Her eyes rounded and she elbowed me. The egg in my bowl flew off to the side but I managed to catch it gently with my left hand. I placed it back in the bowl and I licked the soup from my hand.

“Awesome!” Russel exclaimed.


“Damn.” Zardon said.

A few people saw what happened and their eyes lit up.

“That’s a soft-boiled egg, right?” Kaley said.

“Not sure…” I said.

She grabbed her spoon and she cut the egg with it. The golden yolk began to flow in the soup as Kaley scooped half of the egg and she placed it in her mouth.

“Thanks.” She said with a smirk.

I was about to steal her egg too but I heard a splat a few chairs next to me.

“How did you do it? It’s impossible! At that height too!” Russel said as he places his bowl under his hand where the yolk slowly drips.


“Hah! You? You could sharpen a pencil with those hands.” His father said.

Everyone laughed and we continued eating happily.

A few minutes after eating dinner, we cleared the tables and we gathered for the meeting. Oscar stood up first as he relayed what happened yesterday after I left and their scouting and scavenging run today.

“Okay, listen kids. We now finished the catwalks and the fences today, though we might need to do another set of fences on the other side. Our exploration group also managed to reach the three walled houses just before the huge fishing area. We also located two more houses with survivors still in there but they decided to stay in their own houses. However, they said that they are willing to cooperate with us and they would like to see you tomorrow kid. I gave each of them a radio to open the communications between our houses.” He said as he leans on a chair.

“It got a bit exciting in the afternoon when we opened the place with a lot of zombies, we managed to dispose all of them with zero casualties though we used a few of our ammo for it. Better let them practice with it than later, I say it’s a good investment. To be honest, I’m surprised at Kaley’s accuracy, you’ve used guns before?” he said.

“Yes, I used to hunt with my dad before.” she replied.

“I managed to kill half of them while the others managed to kill the rest with their melee weapons. It’s a tight space so the other kids with guns didn’t manage to shoot as freely as they could. Kaley was in a higher spot so she picked a few from a distance.” he said after drinking a glass of water.

“We hauled a lot of supplies from the houses and we have a pool table there available to be placed here along with a few computers. We’re gonna go back to that alley again since there are no gates to be locked and it’s an open space unlike the gated places that Sky scouted before. And that’s it! Why don’t we let Sky takeover and he shows us his 79 kills, if he really did? Hmm?” He said as he looked at me with a grin.


“This competitive old man…” I said to myself.

I then went to the front with the helmet I brought and I took the memory card inside of it. The helmet has a concealed camera built inside it so it would still look aesthetically pleasing. I inserted it in the laptop and I showed them what happened.

There were a few reactions from the group as I began to speed past the DDR camp. The video shows the way I went and the mob before I went to the other back road.

I see Oscar counting the zombies I killed with his mouth. The other guys are doing that as well.

By the time I was running towards the fast food shop at the corner, Oscar puts his hands up because it already exceeded his kill count.

“What the f.u.c.k?!” Russel and Lois exclaimed when they saw the view at the park. Tons of zombies are roaming there and it could easily exceed a few hundred.

They saw everything up until the door at the back was opened.

“That’s when I found Allan and the rest of the group. They were stranded there and couldn’t get out. I then planned our escape and the video continues on the roof when you managed to call me.”


It played and ‘that’ scene loaded up, it was when I pretended to be a zombie. A few of the guys were laughing now while I saw Kaley smiling but she has this terrifying aura as she looks at me while radiating a mild killing intent.

I fast forwarded it when I saw the figure sprinting. They were surprised and some were curious as they squinted their eyes to see clearer.

“Remember the broadcast? I think we have sprinters here. The shot was dark since it’s still a few hours after midnight and I luckily caught the shot of that zombie running straight. Oscar, make a call to the president’s number later because we have two types here. They could definitely use the information about this and I think this is much more dangerous than the regular ones if you face them abruptly.” I said.

The video then continued on us leaving through the backdoor and letting them go first as I sprinted to my bike.

It shows the video of the graffiti and the other entrance to the DDR camps next to us which was the hospital in the highway. It even recorded my conversation with the soldier. Derek grew furious as he learned what his brother did. His wife tried to calm him down but he left the meeting to get some air.

It then showed the final moments when we reached the fence and the video ended. I turned the laptop off and I took my seat.

“That was crazy man!” Ken remarked.
