They had parked the car down the road and were now scouting the place as it seemed to be empty. The car ride over hadn't been easy either. There had been a lot of traffic as people were panicking. Leaving their homes behind, trying to find a safe place. There had even been a car accident on the road. There was no way to call for help and someone had taken the injured and was trying to reach a hospital in time. Hoping there was someone to help there. It had looked like chaos all around them.
"Have they evacuated?" Burk gave a look at him as they were looking at the place from afar. His pulse began to ran a little quicker, was this the real deal after all? If the base was evacuated.. "It appears that way." He heard Taylor add. "Okay, we need go and see if there is something to scavenge. Gear. Weapons. Anything." He gave a look at them. Breaking and entering to a government property, he never thought he would be doing that. Well at least not in his own country.
As they had confirmed the place to be empty, they had managed to break in to a storage facility. Walking around in the large hall they didn't like what they were seeing. "It's empty." He heard Taylor say. Yeah, he could see it too. "So they really have evacuated the place." Burk stated. Danny could see the fear on his face. The meaning of this. "Let's see the vehicle hall." He rushed towards the joining door.
"Must've been in a rush." Burk said looking around in the hall. Some vehicles still around, few boxes here and there, half opened and a truck that was half loaded. "Looks like a flat tire." Taylor kicked the tire on the truck. "Let's see what's here." Danny lifted himself inside the truck trying to see what was in the boxes. "Looks like we found some grenades.. service weapons." He raised his voice. Hearing that someone opened the door to the truck to search the front. Looking further inside the truck he found 3 hazmat suits with masks and 4 oxygens tanks. Must have been for the people on the truck, he thought. Had they been in that much of a hurry to evacuate that they didn't take the load from the truck? "We can try and shift the tire, drive the truck back to the cabin." Taylor came to the doorway. "Yeah, sounds like a plan." He nodded and came out of the truck. Burk was gathering gasoline from the remaining vehicles as he and Taylor were working with the tire.
"Let's go then." Danny got inside the truck and as they were driving away from the base they noticed they weren't alone anymore. There was someone else on the base as well. They could see the civilian cars parked outside which hadn't been there before. Wondering how quietly had they driven as they hadn't heard them. Hitting the gas to get away as fast as they could, hoping they wouldn't follow them. But the truck was making a lot of noise. They probably already had heard them.
"Looks like we're getting some company." Taylor looked at the sideview mirror and they could spot a few people getting into their cars and they had guns. "Taylor, drive the Jeep." Danny gave a glance at the man and he nodded. He was going to slow down long enough for Taylor to jump out and get into the Jeep they had come with. Whatever the plan would be, driving around in a army truck wasn't the smartest move so they needed the Jeep.
They had to get away from there as fast as they could and possible try and loose the people following them.
"They didn't look friendly. No uniforms either." Burk gave a glance at him. "No, they did not." He added.
