Chapter 2: The Dairy pt 1
Location: GA
place: Backwoods
Time: Late Morning
The St. Johns Brothers, Lee, Carly, Mark, Micheal, and the new kid Ben walked at a stedy pace though the woods. It was really a short trip. 3 miles on foot. For Micheal it was pretty short since he was use to doing 12 mile ruck marches every few months and 4 mile runs every week, Lee while a physically built man wasn't a spring chicken at 38, and Carly was a reporter. Micheal was at the back of the group providing security. One thing he learned in the army was the need for someone to always be watching the back of the group for threats. He was veagly listening to the conversations, at least until Carly and Lee began to fall behind to talk.
"... Clementine knows she was there when we talked at the Drug store.
"Anyone else know?" asked Carly
"Larry knows. At the Drug store he knocked me flat and left me for dead. If it wasn't for Kenny, I'd be a walker now," said Lee still haunted somewhat by what happened that day
"And this was never brought up?" asked Carly frowning.
"What good would it do? We got to move past this kind of stuff if we want to survie another day in this world here," said Lee shaking his head
"What are you two lovebirds talking about?" asked Micheal injecting himself into the conversation.
"Umm... Something that happened when things started," said Lee ignoring the Lovebird comment.
"It's unimportant," said Carly her cheeks taking a light dusting of pink.
"Alright," said Micheal Ignoring everything else and looking around.
The rest of the walk would have been uneventful if not for an unexpected delay. The group jumped into a bush when they heard shouting. Looking over the brush they saw two bandits fighting about something.
"It's just two of them! Think we can take them?" asked Carly.
"Trust us there's always more around somewhere," said Danny holding his rifle.
"Don't worry. Danny and I got your backs if anything happens," said Andy.
Micheal looked at the two brothers, before focusing on the bandits. Unorganized, undisciplined, reckless. The only one of the many types of enemy he spent his time in BCT- Basic Combat Training- preparing for. Two of them he could handle alone, but more then that and they were in trouble. No one besides mark had his training and Mark was an Airmen. Their disciplines were completely different
None of them were prepared for that happened next. The bandit in black kicked his 'buddy' before shooting him with his shotgun! Everyone had to stop themselves from gasping or in Ben's case puking his guts out at how savage the man had been to his friend! Several times, before he walked away muttering 'Asshole' Micheal motioned for Lee to come to him. The soldier handed the former professor the rifle before looking around in the woods.
"What the hell are you doing boy?" asked Andy.
Micheal didn't answer, before sprinting out into the open and grabbing the crossbow that was left behind and checking the body over. He took the quiver that had 15 arrows, the re-curved bowe knife attached to his leg, and the Colt pistol hidden on him as well as three spare 15 round clips. Securing them to himself he began to low crawl back to the others, once in the Bushes Andy grabbed him and pushed him to the ground. (1)
"What the hell were you thinking boy!?" asked the older St Johns Brother.
"Hey there's no need for that!" yelled Carly about to run up only for Danny to get between them.
"Hey let my brother handle this! Your guy put us all in danger with that stunt!" said Danny.
"Hey man this is uncalled for!" yelled Mark getting ready to pounce on Danny. He may have been a flyboy, but he was still an Airmen.
"It's fine Mark. I secured gear that was vital. That guy left without checking his kill. Anything that helps us is something we can't ignore," said Micheal getting to his feet. And holding the handle first to Andy.
Andy took the gun and checked it over. "This is a nice piece, but me and Danny were always rifle and bow boys. I'll take that bow off your hands," said Andy handing the gun back and taking the bow
Micheal shrugged and handed the gun to Lee. "You know how to use that?" asked Micheal taking his rifle back and slinging it.
"Don't know, but I'll figure it out," said Lee releasing the clip, before slapping it back in.
"let's get moving. We're not much further from the farm," said Andy as they kept trudging to the farm.
The rest of the walk was made in silence. It was only another 25 minutes before they made it took the farm. The farm was pretty large. A Two floor white house that sat on top of a small hill, a Barn, and a gazebo. Around the property was a barbwire fence with red wires on them.
"Here it is. The St Johns Family Dairy," said Andy almost in revulation. "Ya'll can see how we kept this place safe,"
"The fence keeps em out?" asked Ben.
"You betcha. They fry like bugs on a zapper! We're pushing 4000 volts though that thang with Generators and Amps!" said Andy proudly
"I'm going to assume that's a lot," said Carly.
"My best friend was a Gen mechanic. The amount of Gas needed to keep up that amount of power is crazy. No wonder they were looking for so much gas," said Micheal.
"Wow! This place is amazing!" said Carly looking around like a kid in a candy store.
"This place is protected by fences around the house, and about 400 feet in all Directions," said the younger St. John brother.
As they walked up to the fence of the house a woman walked out the front door and down the stairs. She was slightly portly, with red hair, wearing a white shirt, and blue jean pants. She looked to be in her 60's.
"I thought I saw ya'll walking down the drive with some friends," said the woman.
"Mama this here is Lee. This is our mama Brenda St. John. Mama Lee and his people have been staying in that old motor inn," said Andy.
"Oh my Goodness. That place is pretty valuable. I hope y'all have someone with survival skills leading y'all," said Brenda.
"I lead everyone, but our friend Lily, Mark, and Micheal here are both former Military," said Lee.
A few words were exchanged before Carly and Ben left with a basket full of biscuits leaving the others to sort things out. Danny went inside with his mother while Andy began to fill the Generators, leaving, Micheal, Lee, and Mark to their own devices.
