As he walked towards the main door with Steve in front of him, Mark quickly took out the photo from the frame and tossed the frame on the couch when they passed by. He folded the picture and kept it inside his pocket. Reaching the main door, he noticed Daisy ready with her bag. He looked at both of them and nodded.

He slowly unsheathed the sword while David held the gun. Slowly opening the door, Mark observed if there were any zombies outside and once he found the coast was clear, he moved out waving his hands for them to follow. As there were no zombies in the way, he quickly jogged towards the car and stood by the entrance as he proved Daisy and David to get on.

After they did, Mark quickly got in and started the engine. David, who had the map with him, opened it and started telling the directions to the last destination. He rolled out of the community and was back on the main road. A normal drive would only take about an hour to reach, but given the present situations, he estimated it to be around 3.

He checked the time and noticed it was 3:30 and only hoped to reach there by the time the sun went down. Going slowly through the roads, Mark maintained a steady speed. After one hour of driving, they were suddenly faced with an entire street of zombies. There would roughly be over 50 zombies and he obviously couldn't bulldoze his way through or do something absurd like kill all of them.

Even if Mark had grenades, he did not want to waste them this soon in the journey, so they went back for some time and took another direction. After another 30 minutes of driving, they came to another dead end. Various cars blocked the road and the Jeep couldn't maneuver through it.

Mark could only sigh and backtrack a bit and take another direction. As they traveled farther, they were once again halted due to various cars. This continued for the next few attempts they tried and kept on backtracking. After the 6th time, Mark stopped the Jeep and took the map from David's hand.

He was completely frustrated by the number of times the roads were blocked. He even considered killing through the zombies in one street, but held himself back because of David and Daisy. He wasn't alone, and as he invited David to his team, Mark felt a bit responsible for their lives.

He checked all the possible routes to his destination and found only one after crossing the routes they traveled. The rest of them were too long and took too much time. Strangely, this one route went through a school. Mark felt his senses telling something wasn't right. Ignoring how he felt, Mark decided to gamble and take the risk. He gave it back to David as he started the engine once again and slowly made his way towards the school.

As they made their way towards the school's direction the lesser the zombies became. Mark was now sure something was amok. The more he got closer, the more he felt it was a trap. After 30 more minutes into the route, Mark noticed several people on top of one of the buildings observing them.

He became alert and instantly told David, "David, this is a trap. Get your gun out. Daisy, hide under the back seat. Don't get up at any cost." Making them wary. Daisy slowly got under the seat while David held the gun tighter. The car came closer to the school premise and Mark was able to see it.

The walls were reinforced, and people were standing on top of a few of them. As Mark was about to cross the school, a few masked people holding weapons, none of them were guns, which made Mark exhale a little. The masked men waved their hands, showing them to go inside the school premise. Having no choice, he turned the Jeep and drove it in.

As they entered the around 10 men surrounded their jeep with pistols in their hands pointed right at them. Mark exhaled and held his sword tight and continued to sit into the car.

3 people slowly walked out of the entrance of the car and the one right waved his hands indicating them to step out. As Mark slowly gripped his seat belt he slowly whispered, "Daisy, don't come out at any cost. Stay inside." And took out the belt before nodding to David.

Slowly opening the doors, both of them got out and the one on the right came towards them and said, "Give us the car and from now on you will stay here under us."
