Two Days Later...
The now Lieutenant Mettic was readying himself for his mission, having good gear thanks to the government, along with a promotion. He had an M4A1 carbine with a forty millimeter grenade launcher and an ACOG scope, two M9 double action pistols, two combat knives, several M67 grenades, and enough ammunition to take over a small country.
But no National Guard soldiers could be brought up to go with Mettic... All of them were busy keeping Sacramento safe from the undead.
But Lieutenant Mettic wasn't going alone, though...
He smiled as he took a look at himself in a mirror, seeing the amount of weapons and ammunition that was strapped all over him. Mettic smiled again as he walked out of the building he was in, heading outside.
Mettic noticed the others were already by a pair of large RV's that were converted for military use. They were waiting for him. All of them were wearing the same kind of stuff he was wearing; military fatigues, body armor, and a hell of a lot of guns and ammunition.
"Are we all ready to head out?" Mettic asked.
Shani nodded as she helped load a large box of supplies in the back of the second RV. After she and Eric got it up there, Shani climbed up and sat on one of the beds of the second RV, swinging her legs.
"Yeah, we are. Everyone's ready." Shani replied.
Mettic nodded and turned around, noticing that Ellie and Mira were wearing new pairs of regular civilian clothing. Ellie had a forty five caliber pistol holstered on her waist, but that was basically all the pair had to fight with. They refused any other guns, only consenting to that one pistol.
The mother and daughter walked over to Mettic, stopping in front of him.
"Who are the kids we're looking for?" Ellie asked.
"There's more than a few... But the main ones are 'Aelita Schaeffer' and her brother 'Chase Enheart'. Don't ask, I don't know why the last names are different. We also need to find a 'Jeremie Belpois' and a 'Dylan Enheart', if optional." Mettic replied.
"What happens if they don't want to come?" Ellie asked.
Mettic sighed, shrugging.
"If they resist, then we forcibly take them. If anyone fights back then we kill the resisters if we have to. We are NOT letting them stay out. We need to find Franz Hopper one way or another." Mettic replied.
Ellie nodded. She and Mira then went to the first RV and boarded it. Mira was actually happy for the first time since her father's death since there was working DVD players in both of the RV's, along with working showers. And as a luxury there was three large boxes of chocolate bars.
Mettic then went over to the others, seeing they were readying their weapons near the back of the second RV. Link walked up to him, holding his new 20 gauge automatic shotgun.
"Lieutenant, are we ready to go?" Link asked.
"Yeah, are you guys?" Mettic asked.
Link nodded, setting a large fifty caliber machine gun inside of the second RV. "Yeah, we're ready. Where do you think that they are out east? I know it's Georgia, but do you know where in the state?" Link asked.
"If the intel is right, then somewhere in or around Atlanta." Mettic replied.
Mettic saw Eric and Steven walk over to them.
"How are we finding them? Georgia is a pretty big place." Steven stated.
"Not to mention that we don't even know where exactly they are." Eric added.
"And that they might be already dead." Shani also added.
Mettic sighed, shrugging. Honestly, no one had any exact idea on where Aelita Schaeffer or Chase Enheart were. All anyone knew was that they were in or around Atlanta, and that a bunch of their friends were with them.
"No idea... All I know is that Schaeffer has pink hair, of all things. Enheart has blue and green eyes, too. I don't know what kind of parents can make kids like THAT, but I guess it is what it is." Mettic replied.
Steven and Eric both went wide eyed with what they heard.
"PINK hair?" Eric asked.
"Blue AND green eyes?" Steven asked.
Mettic shook his head. "Guys, I don't know a goddamn thing aside from that. Basically we're relying on luck for this. Georgia is a huge place, and that's assuming that they even stay in the state or aren't killed and turned into walkers." he stated.
The others then walked over to them after overhearing their conversation. All of them had their own private doubts... Were Schaeffer and Enheart even alive? Where could they even begin to look? They all had their doubts, but none of them voiced them...
"Well... what now? And who else is with them?" Kristin asked.
"Several people." Mettic replied. "There's about eighteen of them if I remember correctly." he added.
Mettic cleared his throat and pulled a folded sheet of paper out from a shirt pocket. He unfolded it and showed it to the rest of the group, revealing the names of all the people they were having to look for...
NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY (NSA)/CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY (CIA) REPORT. July 1st, 2014.
Serial Number: 102-3319-54-72.
Classified: (BEYOND TOP SECRET)
United States Department of Defense 102-3319-54-72: Names of the eighteen "LYOKO WARRIORS"; the Kadic Academy students who fight against Codename: 'XANA'. Names of the LYOKO WARRIORS and their official codenames is as follows:
Aelita Schaeffer.- Codename: "ANGEL".
Jeremie Belpois.- Codename: "EINSTEIN".
Chase Enheart.- Codename: "LANCER".
Dylan Enheart.- Codename: "REDEEMER".
Rebecca Townley.- Codename: "RAINBOW".
Ulrich Stern.- Codename: "SAMURAI".
Odd Della Robia.- Codename: "FELINE".
Yumi Ishiyama.- Codename: "GEISHA".
William Dunbar.- Codename: "TRANQUILITY".
Miranda Lamberse.- Codename: "ASSASSIN".
Verity Clinton.- Codename: "TUMBLER".
Patrick Hartnell.- Codename: "RENEGADE".
Amy Smith.- Codename: "STARLIGHT".
Robert Smith.- Codename: "PROVIDENCE".
Charles Ligget.- Codename: "ROSEBUD".
Kyra Kensely.- Codename: "EVERGREEN".
Alexandr Myakofsky.- Codename: "TZAR".
Jennifer Hudson.- Codename: "IRONIC".
The status of any and all of the "LYOKO WARRIORS" is unknown, but chances of survivability in the RED ZONES of the city of ATLANTA is lower than 3%, along with a large amount of the population infected, dead, or missing.
The mission to find AELITA SCHAEFFER, CHASE ENHEART, or any other of the LYOKO WARRIORS is considered to be near-suicidal. Expectations of success will remain minimal until further notice.
The group studied the names long and hard. Tim broke out laughing as he saw the name of one of them was 'Jennifer Hudson'.
"What the fuck?!" Tim laughed. "W- Why does she-"
Ben quickly shut Tim up by putting his hand right on his mouth, rolling his eyes with annoyance at his brother. "It's probably just a coincidence, Tim. You know it's probably that..." Ben stated.
Tim kept laughing even as his mouth was covered. Actually, most of the group snickered quietly at the name.
"'Hudson'..." Shani snickered.
"That's funny..." Link snickered.
"I wonder what she thinks of it?" Kristin snickered.
Mettic sighed, honestly a little annoyed at the humor. Admittedly, he did chuckle a little bit when he read her name at first, but it was only because he didn't expect it. The actual actress was probably dead at that point anyway.
"Alright, can we drop it now? It's just a coincidence." Mettic said, firmly.
Everyone finally stopped their snickering and went back to loading the final crates of supplies into the RV's. Unfortunately, they only had enough cans of gasoline to reach Texas or Louisiana, if they were lucky. But that wasn't going to stop them.
They were going to find the Lyoko Warriors. Dead or alive if need be.
"We should go now... We need to find these people one way or another." Ben stated.
"I agree. Our best bet is to just try and head to Atlanta, hopefully finding them." Eric added.
Mettic nodded in agreement to what Eric said, agreeing with him.
"Right now it's survival of the fittest. We have to find them before they all end up infected... Which is why we're going now." Mettic replied.
Link nodded, keeping a tight hold on his purple katana as he walked into the second RV. Eric followed him and kept his sword and shield with him as he walked into the RV.
Shani walked into the second RV, going in to sit in the driver's seat. Ben and Tim smiled as they walked into the front RV together, bringing along four assault rifles with them.
Steven and Kristin smiled as they went into the second RV together, each carrying two dufflebags full of ammunition. Mettic, however, simply stood outside of the RV for a few minutes, smiling a little to himself.
"Let's get the fuck out of here..." Mettic said, mostly to himself.
Several dozen US soldiers and civilians watched Mettic as he boarded the first RV. Mettic went and sat in the drivers seat, seeing Ellie was sitting in the passenger seat and seeing Mira was in the back, watching SpongeBob.
Ben and Tim started loading the magazines for the assault rifles they brought on as Mettic started driving down the road, noticing all of the civilians and soldiers clapping and cheering for them.
Shani started driving with the first RV as they started heading out through the front gate of Sacramento, smiling and now hopeful for the future.
Eric had a smile on his face as he polished his sword, feeling confident that they would succeed.
Steven loaded his revolver with a smile on his face, hopeful they could make it to Georgia.
Kristin sat on the couch and was looking out the window with a smile on her face, happy that they all were alive.
Link smiled as he was loading his automatic shotgun, sort of knowing they would make it.
Ben and Tim had matching smirks on their faces as they stared out the window, both honestly excited to find the Lyoko Warriors.
Ellie went to Mira and sat with her, both smiling and hugging each other as they watched the TV, both happy they made it.
And Mettic...? Mettic simply had a frown on his face as he led the two RV's out of Sacramento... He knew they had a lot of ground to cover, and a lot of trouble in their way... But it'll all be worth it in the end... This is survival of the fittest for now, but soon, with luck, it'll be the end of the walking dead's reign...
