Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

Two days has passed since the letter Yuqi had received from the mysterious person.

More and more signs were showing of a possible coup as Yuqi noticed some of the militia seem to had gotten a bunch of food stamp out of nowhere.

As the three work inside the office, Yuqi's phone suddenly rang.

Yuqi check the phone and it was Yezi calling her.

"Hello what's wr——"

"Is there something wrong?" Yezi asked immediately before Yuqi could finish.

"Is anyone near you?" Yuqi asked first.

"No, I'm in the command room with Yiming right now... But there had been few people following us. Is there something happening?"

"There's a coup tomorrow. Some of the militia member are seeing this opportunity take power since Xiaoyun is gone with the entire army."

"WHAT?" Yezi and Yiming both sound extremely shock by the news.

"Don't panic or do anything trying to stop it. They will see you guys as acting suspicious and launch it immediately." Yuqi added.

"How dare they? If it wasn't us that let them in, they will still rotting in the outside." Yezi sounded extremely angry.

"Mrs.Yuqi, do you have a plan already set?" Yiming seem to noticed Yuqi's voice sounding very confident.

"Yes Mr.Yiming, I had expanded the police force by five times. The militia is only two thousand people and there's no way all of them are on their side..." Yuqi explained her plan over the phone.

"Hm... sound good to me. Do you want us to do anything?" Yiming asked as he couldn't find any hole in the plan.

"Just act normal and stay safe when they start the coup. Maybe try to get some militia members that you can trust that haven't turned to the other side."

As Yuqi finished replying, Yezi noticed a flaw in the plan.

"You sure the police force isn't bribed or apart of the militia coup?"

Yuqi thought for a second, then replied back.

"I got no other options. If this doesn't work, we can only wait for Xiaoyun to come back."

"Very well. We'll try to get as militia member as we can without raising suspicious." Yezi hang up the phone.

"Look like we can only wait..." Yuqi let out a sigh of relief as she now had more people on her side.

"I feel like we shouldn't of ask them that." Shuli got worried about Yezi and Yiming getting caught.

"It's fine... those two will be safe no matter what. You wouldn't believe the respect they have among the soldiers and militia. Most people in this town are rescued by them. Especially the soldiers in the militia." Nami reassured Shuli.

"But then why would they even start a coup then? I still don't get their intention." Shuli was confused even more.

"Maybe it's some external faction. Or maybe some people are ambitious and want power for themselves. After all, it's an apocalypse." Yuqi explained before Nami could.

"Has Xiaoyun's phone picked up at all?" Leyan asked.

"Nope, I haven't been able to call him since the first day he left. They most likely out of service there." Yuqi replied back.

"I really hope he come back soon..." Yueyue sighed.

The next day.

Everything was going smoothly as if nothing was going to happen at all.

Until the sun was setting and the moon rose from the horizon.

"You ready?" Chen Gang looked over to Ma Tian and Liu Ping.

The two nodded back to Chen Gang.

"Then see each other at the armory." Chen Gang waved goodbye.

The three went separate ways to meet up with the militia that they had recruited.

After walking for five minute, Chen Gang entered knocked on the door of an house.

"Who's there?" A voice from the inside asked.

"It's the moment of revolution."

"Revolution for who?" The voice asked again.

"Revolution for the common man."

The door was opened as soon as Chen Gang finished speaking.

Chen Gang walked inside only to see two hundred people inside the house.

"Where's the rest?" Chen Gang noticed the one hundred missing.

"They backed out like cowards and didn't want to risk it." One of them replied.

"Whatever, we don't need them... Is everyone ready?" Chen Gang asked everyone in the house.

"Yes sir!" All of the replied back.

"Very well... I promise to you all, after this, we'll be all living in luxury. None of us will be stuck living in the cabins and struggling to afford food" Chen Gang proclaimed.

Most of the militia in the house were ecstatic thinking of their future after they became the higher ups, while a small fraction of the militia started to regret the decision to join in the coup.

"Tonight is the night we overthrow the unfair government. They had cut our benefits, they had taken away our housing. They had taken away foods and lowered our wages. Next thing you know, they will make us work for free!" Chen Gang paused for a second.

"Down with the dictator!" Chen Gang raised his fist.

"Down with the dictator!" Most of the soldiers raised their fist, pressuring the rest to raise their fist to not stand out.

Chen Gang led the group exit the house and started marching toward the armory.

---

Meanwhile Yuqi was at home on the phone with the chief superintendent, or the head of the police department Xiaoyun had assigned.

"Li Zhen, are you all in position?" Yuqi asked.

"Yes Mrs. Yuqi, we're all in position. We are all waiting at the armory. Mr.Yezi and Mr.Yiming is also here with half of the militias." Li Zhen replied.

"Good. Any insurgent that attempt to go in the armory, I grant you the right to shoot them on sight if they don't surrender." Yuqi issued the order.

"Yes ma'am."

After hearing Li Zhen's response, Yuqi hung up the phone.

"I guess we can only wait now." Leyan spoke up as all five of them were next to Yuqi.

"If this fails, I assume we are going to get target next..." Shuli mumbled.

"Yeah, we are the primary target pretty much. If they control the civilian government, its a lot easier for them to control the town... And prevent Xiaoyun from coming back." Nami replied.

"I knew we shouldn't of let him go on this mission." Yuqi complained.

"It's easy to be wise after the event... you're the one who moan the loudest in bed and let him go after he just went inside you a few time."

As soon as Yueyue pointed it out, Yuqi's face started blushing.

----

Meanwhile right at the entrance of the training ground.

Chen Gang had regrouped with Ma Tian and Liu Ping at the entrance.

"You two are also missing some people?" Chen Gang asked the two.

"A lot of people backed out last second, we only got three hundred total." The two looked a little worried.

"It's fine, as long as we get our weapons, nobody will be able to stop us." Chen Gang reassured the two.

There were now around five hundred people at the gates of the training ground.

"Everyone! Tonight we either fight and be remembered as a hero, or die, and be remembered as a coward. Who's with me?" Chen Gang asked one last time as he raised his fist.

All of them raised their fist without hesitation as people who were still undecided had left during the march to the training group.

Chen Gang opened the gates and led the march towards the armory.

Just as they got to the middle of the training field, they were met with a surprise guest.

"Chen Gang, what are you doing here this late at night?" Yiming asked as he stood alone in the field.

"Mr.Yiming, I respect you as a commander, but you are blinded by Xiaoyun's corrupt government. You know exactly what we are doing. We're not turning back until our demands are met." Chen Gang replied back.

"..." Yiming stood in silent as he watches all the militias saluted at him, and then left toward the armory.

"I really hand trained a bunch of insurgent... maybe I had failed as a commander." Yiming was disappointed in himself, yet he let out a sigh of relief.

"But it's only a small faction. There's always going to be one bad apple spoils the bunch." Yiming mumbled to himself as he left the field.

----

Just as Chen Gang's army of militias got to the main entrance of the armory, another surprise guest stood their path.

"Turn back before it's too late." Yezi warned as he stood at the door to the armory.

"We are not turning back. Mr.Yezi I know you had saved a lot of people, but its not going to change our mind. We're just want our fair share from the government." Chen Gang replied back.

"How did Xiaoyun mistreated you all? If it wasn't for him, you will still be out there, dying to zombies in some dark alleyway. Is this is how you repay him? Do you all have any dignity and honor?" Yezi yelled out to the militias.

All of the militia's mind started to shift a little as they started to feel a little ashamed.

"So what? We had already paid back to him by working as militia day and night. Why do we risk our lives standing at the wall while some people be all rich just from setting up a store?" Chen Gang argued back.
