The End Of Life Chapter 80
Advertisement
Driving through the streets of Loshin, David heard something which made him smash the brakes and wake up Mark beside him.
"Stop. Please Stop. Save us."
David looked out of his window and into the streets to see 2 young teenagers running towards them with a small horde of 15 zombies behind them. One of them was a male and had a huge hammer in his hands, so huge enough to smash a head. The other was a female with a small bag behind her and a kitchen knife in her hand.
Both of them noticed their jeep and shouted for help, stretching their hands out hoping they could see them. David looked at both of them and didn't know what to do. He knew Mark's way of thinking and how he would react if he saw them. He wouldn't care much. They weren't related to him in any way and probably would also not benefit him in any way.
But David was different. He couldn't think like Mark. He was a trained doctor. A person who couldn't look away when people come to him with a cry of help. As he was thinking about what to do, both those teenagers came nearer with the horde behind them.
"What is it, David? Why did the car stop?" Asked Mark as he rubbed his eyes. The sudden brake woke him up as his head almost hit the dashboard in front of him. He looked at David, who was looking out and was puzzled.
David heard him and mustered up some courage and asked, "Can we save them?" Pointing out of the car towards the two running teenagers.
Mark was confused and said as he leaned over, "Save whom? You can't be serious." And looked at David when he noticed them shouting towards him.

David nodded and asked once again, "Yes, those two. Please just listen, I can't be like you and ignore them. My life up till now was to save people and seeing that their life is in danger. I can't turn the other way." Almost pleading him.
Mark shook his head and said, "We don't have time." As he sat back in his seat.
"It won't take any time. Listen to me, we can't just leave those people out there like that." Trying to convince Mark.
Mark didn't reply. He had one thought. If he says no right now to David's wish, he would not have a good ally to rely on the future. But he also couldn't go against his thoughts.
After thinking it through, he looked at David and said, "Ok, then it's all on you. I won't get involved if you want to save them. Don't even look at me when you find yourself in trouble facing them. Also, don't take much time. We are already behind our schedule." As he made his points across.
He couldn't deny David's request. Especially when their partnership is only based on him saving David's life. If he wouldn't listen to his requests, it would only be a matter of time before David would leave him when the time comes. It is human nature and he couldn't stop it. So he agreed with those conditions.
David, who heard this, was shocked. He knew that Mark was a bit too selfish compared to normal people and wouldn't want to save others just for the sake of it. But he listened to his request and agreed. Even though the conditions were tight, they were still durable. He nodded and took out his gun. He checked the bullets and got down from the jeep.

Waving his hand and two teenagers running, he said, "Come quickly and keep your heads low. Quick." And aimed at a zombie behind them.
David's aim was not the best. He would only hit 4 out of every 10 shots he took. The first bullet hit the shoulder of the zombie he aimed for blowing it away, but it didn't stop it one bit. David quickly continued to shoot more bullets out as the two teenagers covered their heads and ran while bending down.
By the time David went through the whole magazine, there were still 4 zombies left and they were very near to the jeep. Both the teenagers reached the jeep and immediately went behind David as he changed the magazine and quickly shot down the rest.
After he confirmed they were dead, he turned around and saw the two teenagers looking at him. The girl already had tears in her eyes while the boy was terrified by what just happened. He dropped the hammer in his hand and hugged the girl as he tried to calm her down.
"What are you both trying to do out here when zombies are everywhere? Don't you have a safe camp here in the town." Asked David as both of them cooled down and stopped crying.
The boy looked at David and replied, "We ran away from the camp. We couldn't stay there and snuck out trying to search for food and try to survive on our own. While we were trying, we attracted the zombies, and they were after us."
Before David could reply Mark laughed out loud hearing them. This startled all three of them, and David looked inside. Mark controlled his laugh and said, "Get in David. We can't deal with these brainless idiots who can't even grasp the severity of the situation the country is in right now. Leave them now that they are safe. We need to move."
Hearing him, the boy was shocked and turned towards David and immediately caught his leg and begged, "Please don't leave us. Please, at least return us back to our camp. If you leave us we have absolutely no hope of surviving. Just taking us to our camp would be enough." The girl also begged with him.
It startled David when he saw both of them beg. Both looked like they were the same age as his daughter Daisy, and he couldn't reject looking at their pleading face. So he turned to Mark, trying to ask him if they could send them to their camp.
