Chapter 218: Just A Little Girl…
The feeling of pure evil penetrated the walls of the Navy base where Adam and Eve were discussing the next step with Réne and Alicia.
Eve’s voice cut off in mid-sentence as Adam jumped to his feet, his gun in hand as he looked around the room.
"What was that?" demanded Alicia, coming to her feet.
"That was..." started Eve just as there was a knock on the door.
"General Lapierre," murmured the man at the door. "We have about a hundred and fifty people at the gate, wanting to come in." The man looked unsure, and there was a good reason for it.
The base just wasn’t big enough, nor did it have enough supplies to actually be able to support all the people living inside. To make matters worse, every time there was a new group of survivors at the door, the fight for the limited resources became even more intense.
Infighting was at an all-time high, with at least five or six bodies a night dying as a result. However, that didn’t change the fact that Réne and Alicia were already scraping the bottom of the barrel to give everyone what little food they had.

"You know the rules state that everyone is allowed inside. All they have to do is prove they haven’t been bitten by a zombie, and they get free reign," answered Alicia for Réne. "So why are you interrupting this meeting?"
