Dart and Carl walked into the military zone, and it was far more organised than they thought. They looked side to side as they could see gunners set up in the buildings around them.
Then there wasn't a lack of vehicles that they were using either. There was even a team that seemed to be brewing makeshift molotov cocktails to use. Most likely having already run out of major supplies.
While walking, they had six men on them at all times. Each with guns pointed at them, and they were aiming at two areas: the legs, as well as the head. Not only that but they stayed a few metres away from the two as they walked through the base.
'They have learned a lot, no wonder they have survived this long.' Carl thought. 'At least the general seems competent. They seem to be preparing for a large-scale battle as well. I wonder if it's the demons or the Zombie Hunters that are giving them problems.'
Several demolished buildings could be seen up ahead. Whether it was from meteor strikes or something that they had done themselves, the area had been cleared out of rubble, and the rubble pushed to the sides to make a small circle, a wall within a wall.
In the centre of the cleared out space, several large tents were set up, and this was the current base of the military.
"Wait here!" A soldier shouted, as they stood outside the tent. A few moments later, General Begal walked out with his hands behind his back.
He looked at the two zombies in front of him, and started to stare at Carl for a few moments.
"I recognise you." Begal said. "Not the way you are now." Commenting on the fact that he was no longer human. "You were in the SAS before. You were stationed with us to help train the locals on special operative missions.
"There was an incident which you and your team managed to resolve extremely quickly. You were one that caught my eye back then and left an impression that I would never forget."
Carl had forgotten the name Begal but now that he had mentioned it, in his time before he had joined the private organisation of the Reborn group, he had spent his time in the SAS.
"I never thought we would meet like this again, sir." Carl said respectfully, and saluted.
"There is no need for that, you were never under my command." Begal said. "What I'm more interested in, is who on earth managed to get your respect, to send you out on a job like this?"
"I believe you were already informed of that, sir." Carl answered. "It is the one that you have come to know as Zain."
It was true, it was this name that allowed for the two to meet in the first place, because for Begal, Zain was the second person that had left a strong and lasting impression on him. To have this person working for him, Begal was wondering what on earth was going on.
"From the looks of things, you are no longer receiving outside help from the military. Your supplies are running low, and they have practically abandoned you." Carl said.
Begal didn't say a word, but it was true. No more ammunition, no more orders, and no more food. They had been left to their own devices.
"And you and Zain have an offer for us?" Begal said. "Don't you think it's a little rude that he hasn't come here in person."
"He is busy." Carl replied. "Once I explain to you our proposal, I think you will understand why he is busy."

Elsewhere through the city, the Zombie Hunters were expanding their operations but for the first time they were meeting resistance. It wasn't from the zombies, or the military, instead it was from the demons. Groups had been sent out, on longer expeditions than before, all of it with the goal of finding their base.

Night was starting to fall, and one of the Zombie Hunter groups in particular were holding up in an apartment room together, ready to get some sleep for the night.
"Don't you think Buke has been acting a little more crazy than usual these days?" Nit said, scratching his head.
"I guess it's to be expected after he found out a group of us hunters were actually these demons in disguise." Dali replied.
"I know, but at this rate, I'm a little frightened to go back." Nit said. "I mean, I heard of another group returning and Buke punching off his head. Suspecting he was a demon only to find he was a human… he seems to have been really shaken up by this."
A loud bang was heard from the door, it had been hit and the lock was broken. All of the hunters immediately stood up ready to attack, until they saw who it was.
"Z—Zain!" Dali called out. "I thought… I would never see you again."
During Zain's solo travels he had run into a group of youngsters, who had the goal of joining the Zombie Hunters, Zain had taken them there, leaving them be afterwards.
Although one was a hunter and the other was a zombie, the two never had a dislike for each other. They had been through things together and Zain had saved their life, even though he was a zombie.
For them, the hunters were just a safe place for them to live.
"It's good to see that you are all alive, I've been trying to track you down for a while now." Zain said. "I'll get to the point, I need you guys to do me a favour. I need you to go to your leader, and ask for a meeting between me and Buke."
The heartfelt and uplifted reunion, quickly changed as they heard Zain's request.
"Zain that's crazy, you don't know what Buke is like!" Nit said. "If we go back, and say that… a zombie wants a meeting, he'll kill us on the spot."
Zain shook his head.
"He won't… Tell him that Zain and Skittle are the ones that wish to meet him. I'm sure he will answer to that."
