BXBX NOVEL Chapter 213 To One Place
One of the biggest bases and one of the biggest groups in the city was located at the museum. Due to an unfortunate event, most of those that were located at the museum had been dealt with and they had been killed.
The news had spread to other groups that were stationed in the city and because of this attack, it caused all of the groups to tighten up their defences more. The large group that belonged to Ryan, had now dwindled to a group of fifteen.
In total, there were five members of the SWAT team that had managed to survive, while the rest were regular civilians. Most were students, since the old and young were unable to get away in time.
Out of those that managed to survive, there was Max and Tod. Tod, the weapons specialist who used two blades to fight, and Max, who was practically a wall of muscle for the group. If it wasn\'t for these two, then perhaps even more would have died on that day.
Currently, Ryan was in the hospital that they had taken over, the group\'s second location. Most were in the reception area, while Ryan had called for the guards to have a meeting in one of the surgical rooms.
Chairs had been set up for them to sit on, while he sat on one end. All five of the guards were there but there was one more seat that was empty.
"We\'ll wait for everyone to arrive before I talk about our next move and what we have found." When Ryan spoke it was straight and to the point, at the same time, he no longer had the same smile on his face as he had in the past.
There was a complete change in demeanour and attitude after what had occurred. Eventually, the door opened and a young man walked through.
"I spoke to the others, they are resting for now, and a couple are on guard. Everything seems to be fine." Cody reported, as he sat down.
One of the survivors who had decided to stick by Ryan was Cody. He had thought about going off and searching for Kelly, but based on her last words to him and how she had reacted back then, he knew she would be long gone.
Although Cody trusted in his skills, to go out in the world on his own, without any help whatsoever, was an incredibly big risk.
"That\'s great to hear." Ryan said. "Once they have rested, it might be time for us to make a big move. Thanks to Max, we have been able to gather information on the army bases that have moved around.
"I have tried communicating with other groups, but after what happened to us, they are afraid whoever targeted us might go for them. The only group that is big enough to protect us right now… is the army."
There was a shocked look on the faces of the others, as they twisted and turned their heads, and there was a simple reason for that.
"Are you sure about this?" Tod asked. "Our scouting groups in the past have met up with military personnel and they didn\'t seem interested in helping us out. What do you think will be different this time?"
Ryan stood up as he went to answer this question, he looked at the ground for a few seconds before lifting his head.
"Because we don\'t have a choice." Ryan replied. "We can stay here and survive but for how long? We might get attacked again, we can\'t join any other groups, and we can\'t go out as much as we did before in search of supplies.
"Everywhere that is good for shelter will eventually just become a target, even this hospital will have people coming in and out of it. We have stumbled across the location of a military base, just outside of the city. We will force them to accept us, even if we need to do their bidding. It\'s the only thing we can do."
Those in the room were frustrated because they knew Ryan was right, they had already lost a lot, and there wasn\'t much choice.

However, Ryan and his group weren\'t the only ones that had managed to intercept and find out about the army base that was not too far from the city they were currently in.
In the back of a large truck that the military would use to transport a large number of personnel, was a group of people, but those inside the vehicle weren\'t military at all, as they were all wearing black leather jackets inside, with words painted in white on the back.
"Alright listen up!" A female was standing, with her hair tied up, with her hand hanging on top of a railing to hold onto. "I know for a lot of you that are here, this is your first job as part of our group and it should be an easy one.
"We have made a deal to meet up with the military base in cooperation to exchange information as well as a few items. However, I warn you all, that things can very quickly go sour.
"So you all need to be alert and listen to me."
"Yes, Wendy!" One of the men said in a sarcastic voice as if they were in the military and started to laugh.
"We\'re going to a military base, this really is a big deal for our first mission." One of the younger boys said, shaking his knees up and down.
"It\'s okay… they\'re looking after the others, and they are looking after Wiz." The other smiled.
Wendy was looking at the two new members, they were young, around 16 years of age, and she felt slightly bad for them. Because there was a good chance that this would turn sour and if that was the case they were most likely to be left behind.
"Dali… and Nit. I will remember their names, in case something happens to them, so they will live on with me." Wendy whispered to herself.
