The End Of Life Chapter 161

"Distraction game?" asked Steve, sounding doubtful. In fact, not only him but everyone else from their team also looked doubtful. They knew this tactic, and it was very common.
"Yeah, distraction. Given our low numbers, this is the best possible way to go at it. Most of our group will go headfirst into one of their border outposts and try to push through. But the main purpose is to grab the attention of the camp. While two of us can sneak into the camp and take the major players there quickly." Pointing at him and Kevin.
Steve frowned a little. This method was a bit risky and could cause destruction. The team which would cause the distraction had to fight really hard and hold the attention of the opponent long enough that the people sneaking in could get things done. It was a lot of work compared to going right for it as Emma suggested. At Least that way they don't need to worry about the other team as they would stick together.
"How do you plan to go unnoticed by the outpost and even sneak into their base camp, even if we are attracting most of their attention? They aren't dumb enough to send all their forces in one direction while leaving their backs wide open," asked Emma as she tapped the table.
Mark leaned back on the seat and replied calmly, "The sewers."
"Sewers?" Steve asked
"You heard me correctly. I plan to use the sewers to get into their camp. They won't be checking and patrolling the sewers. So, it's a nice way to get in unnoticed while you guys are creating a bigger distraction on the other end. We will finish the job quickly and quietly." it was the same way he got in when he went in alone to save Suzie.

"We will get into the sewers outside the outpost and try to navigate our way inside. So do you have any maps with the sewer system correctly drawn?" looking at Steve.
Steve thought for a second before nodding and going out of the room. The room was silent as everyone was in their own thoughts. Suzie sighed as she looked at David. She thought she was the only one with some special powers and now seeing someone else with almost the exact copy as her; it didn't feel right. But she assured herself by telling her she was stronger than the man.
David was rather thinking about how he should look after the two teenagers who were his responsibility. He clutched the gun on his waist and shook his head. He didn't want any negative thoughts at a time like that.
Kevin was thinking about the plan Mark just told. He didn't want to mess things up for Mark.
The military team thought little about all of this. Their only plan was to follow Steve's orders like they were told to. Only Emma was thinking about the plan. Hoping to find any loopholes she could fix. It was an important mission, and all the people involved were very important resources for the camp's survival. The General was betting everything on this.
After a while, Steve came back inside with a map in his hand and threw it towards Mark. Mark caught it, stood up, and placed it widespread on the table. They filled the whale map with lines in all types of colors. It was not only the sewer system that mapped out other stuff like water and electricity lines were also there.
Mark looked at the two maps and started thinking about the right place for them to create a distraction and then a place to sneak into the sewer system unnoticed. He pointed out at a high rise building and said, "Alright, here is where you guys will create the distraction."

"You can use the various buildings to your advantage, and this post is also one of the closest to one of the military camp posts. So if you need support or have to fall back, it can be done quickly."
"Meanwhile, I and Kevin will get inside the sewer right around here. It has the shortest route to the school, but also a straightforward one. It also looks like this is one of the weaker outposts they have, seeing how the nearest outpost is quite far."
"That is a dangerous zone. There is more zombie activity there. That is why it is sparse. So I think it is better if you guys chose another one." Steve interrupted and gave a suggestion.
Mark smiled hearing him and replied, "Then that is even better. If we play our cards right, then we can properly enter the sewer meanwhile the people guarding the place are on high alert for zombies." and everyone thought he was crazy.
"You don't need to worry, I and Kevin will take care of it. So except for me and Kevin, everyone else is creating the distraction. If you guys want to plan things out, I think you should. I plan to start the attack by 1. Only an hour left." he leaned back.
Steve looked at Emma and both of them started planning out how they can effectively use the place to their advantage. Both of them discussed with everyone except Kevin and Mark, who simply sat in a corner. Mark closed his eyes and leaned back while Kevin was looking at the group discussing.
"Do you think we will succeed?" Kevin suddenly asked.
Mark opened one of his eyes lightly, taking a peek at his dumb friend before closing it and replying, "Don't worry too much. If we don't succeed, let's just run and try another time. Everything will be ok either way."
Kevin nodded, hearing Mark's words. He also believed that being alive is the most important aspect. They could always come back when they are strong enough to face them. Remembering something, Mark took out his bag. Taking out a Glock 17 and a few magazines of bullets, he kept the gun back down. He wanted to give it to Suzie. He forgot to give them before.

Some are ostracized or locked up, but others walk amongst us. They’re more common than one would think and they grow in number the higher in the hierarchy you go. With 1 in 100 people preying on the other 99, eventually, a world trying to summon a hero might end up with a monster that doesn't feel like playing along. _____________________________ The story is my take on some of my favorite genre's and tropes, some of which I have no I idea if they'll work well together. English is not my main language so if you notice any typos or grammar mistakes please tell me so I can correct them. Criticism and critique are more than welcome:) A chapter every Tuesday.*I do not own the cover image, it's taken from google.
