The End Of Life Chapter 125

Going inside, Mark and Kevin noticed David sitting with a bandaged man on the couch. As they walked towards them, Suzie came out of the kitchen with a bottle of water in her hand.
"Oh, both of you are back. Here, have this Jason. Guys, this is Jason." She introduced them. Mark gave a nod while Kevin introduced both of them.
Sitting down on the couch, Mark looked at the thirty-year-old man, wrapped up in bandages. After Jason finished drinking the water Suzan gave him, Mark finally asked, "How are you feeling Mr.Jason?"
Jason looked up towards Mark's eyes, which gave him an eerie feeling because of the two different colors. He coughed when he realized that he was staring too long and replied, "I am doing well thanks to your group. If you guys were not there at that time, I would have been dead or even worse a zombie by now."
He felt grateful for this unknown group. They arrived at the correct time when he lost all hope. When he woke up a few minutes back, he panicked a little. But calmed down when he saw his bandaged body. Thinking back at the whole mission, he couldn't help but feel bad and also angry towards the people who caused this.
Mark waved his hands and said, "It's alright. We did it cause we want some information from you." Making Jason tense up instantly as he started looking at him warily.
David noticed his muscles tensing up and said, "Don't tense your muscles too much like that. The wounds will open once again and it's a headache to patch you up again." Jason heard him and gave a nod, but he kept looking around.
The first thought he had when he heard this was, 'Are they going to attack the camp?' making him go even more frenzy than before.

Mark couldn't care less about what the man was thinking as he proceeded to ask, "We want to know where the camp is at. If possible, tell us now so we can get going immediately." In a tone which Jason knew he couldn't be silent.
"I won't tell you. Just kill me." He screamed in their face.
Mark looked at David astonished and asked, "Did he also lose his brain because of the large number of injuries he got." Mocking Jason. David could only wryly smile while Jason didn't know what they were talking about.
Kevin who was silently listening spoke up after this, "Look, just tell us the location of the camp. We are on a mission to deliver something to your camp general from Stargaze city military camp." Making their intentions clear.
Hearing their reason, Jason felt incredibly embarrassed about his sudden outburst of patriotism and loyalty to the camp. Being in his mid-thirties and losing his cool after already being as a soldier for several years wasn't a good look for him.
Mark nodded at Kevin's words and looked at Jason, waiting for an answer. Jason noticed his gaze and gave a small nod before telling them the location of the camp.
"Alright then, you heard the man. Let's get moving so we can be there before lunch." He said, clapping his hands.
All of them got to work and left the house within 15 minutes. David got back on the Jeep with Jason and Suzie while Kevin took the wheel. Driving out of the county, they slowly followed Jason's directions, and it didn't take them long to reach the camp with killing zombies and taking detours due to cramped roads.
The camp was very similar to the one in Stargaze city. With the only exception of a hospital being conveniently nearby to the base. As they drove up to the gate, a soldier came and knocked on Kevin's door.

"Who are you? What's your purpose being here?" He asked Kevin as he rolled down the window. Mark looked at the skinny soldier wearing a gun and pointing at them while there was another one on the other side of the gate doing the same.
"Dave, I'm with them. They saved me. They are from the military camp in Stargaze city." Explained Jason before Kevin could reply.
Hearing Jason's voice, the man, Dave finally looked inside and noticed Jason's patched-up body before saying, "Jason, it's really you. Oh, my god, what happened out there. We never received a word after you guys went out there and I heard the higher-ups were planning on sending people if you guys didn't come today."
Jason could only wryly smile and say, "It's a long story, Dave. Could you open the gates for us? Trust me, these guys should be from the Stargaze city and are on a mission." Dave nodded before waving his hands, making the gates finally open.
Kevin slowly drove inside, and Mark looked at the apartment complex. He could see there were 5 blocks and then in the distance right behind the apartments was a hospital. Mark sighed once again, seeing their luck in finding a nice position. The Stargaze city camp had to scavenge nearby hospitals to get equipment.
The Jeep stopped at the place the soldier asked them to and they got out safely. Dave came along with another person behind him. Mark noticed the emblems on his uniform and noticed it was actually a colonel ranked army officer like Steve.
"This is Colonel Dan. He is here to ask you a couple of questions." Introduced the man as he looked at the group.
"As he said, My name is Dan. Dave, take Jason to the infirmary and have them take a look at his condition." Giving out a command.
Dave simply left with Jason as Dan looked at the group once more and asked in a more serious tone, "Please show proof that you are from the Stargaze city military camp."
Mark nodded and took out a letter he received from the old general before he came and handed it over to Dan.
"General Donald hired us to bring back some equipment you guys might have. This is a letter he gave us to show to your general."

I post at least once a week. I cannot promise you a story you enjoy reading, but I can promise you a story I enjoy writing. Thank you. ------------------------------------------ The sword is greater than a simple weapon; an answer to life's questions. An extension of thine master's hand, guided by wrist. Care it not whether guilty or innocent blood shed, for be it a mere edge, a weapon. For blade that forgets or refuses to cut be shameful, meaningless, disgraceful. Nay, be it considered a tool at all? What dost the weapon do when the steel hath no guide, that the master hath mingled far? Doth it Stay? Perhaps quiver at possibility, the loss of reason for existence? Or does it go forth into the unknown, guided by merely the wind and the edge?
