Enter, The Walking Dead

Chapter 6 - Entertainment maybe?



It has been a few days since the girls, Amy and Andrea, have left and I have been busy setting up what will be the new world if things happen like they did in the television series. I have still been curious what happened to the military and all their hardware such as vehicles and armories, as what was showed in the show was just a sad pittance to what truly exists in this country. That will of course be one of our objectives once everything settles just a little.

So far the plan as sits, is to gather our people that will originally be staying with us, which should include a lot of ex military and their families, and then bring in survivors quickly to bolster our numbers, as if the series was anything to go by, there were not that many survivors after the first few months, just a few pockets here and there and mostly lawless warlord types, which I will be forced to crush of course.

Other than that we have gathered enough weapons, everything from swords to anti armor rockets, the latter still hasn't arrived from my brothers contacts overseas yet though but I'm confident they will arrive in time. Either way we have thousands of guns of all types as well as hundreds of thousands of rounds for them all.

Food is another thing that is being worked on, but is more difficult as I don't really have any real knowledge in farming, but it's convenient that the girls, even though not farmers themselves, have learned from their grandfather quite a bit, so have at least been able to guide me in what type of things to buy for long term usage and storage of crops. It was unfortunate that he didn't exactly believe me that the world was going to end, but he also didn't try to stop the girls from working with me either so there is that. Probably has to do with the fact they showed him their first pay checks, who can complain, as long as your getting paid, even if he thinks the idea is silly.

Other than that my lawyers have started to come through and I am due to meet my first few patients over the next few days, sick men and women who all have some kind of terminal issue, who are willing to transfer tens of millions to my over seas bank account to be healed, the stipulation is obvious, completely healed or no pay, and the possibility of having a kill order placed on him by a angered client.

My brother has told me that people should start arriving to the compound as a sort of advanced help, as well as to protect him in case things happen early, since we don't really have an exact date on when the shit happens for real. The first group to arrive should be about twenty, just the veterans, not their family's, as they are still getting things ready, after showing videos of what I can do with my healing ability some are still skeptical, but since they know I'm already rich and not really asking for anything other than to act as security and live on the compound for a few months, many decided to take out loans, as large as the banks or in some cases sharks would allow them, to be paid back in a year. They mainly bought things they didn't want to do without, as entertainment and housing would be paid for that mostly meant luxury things such as their dream kit for their dream guns or in some women's cases a vast supply of chocolates and other goodies.

Those new security personnel sent by his brother, as after a while I just had him legally open a private security group, would be stationed at three places, five would be put in the compound just outside Atlanta, ten would be with me at all times and the last five of this current group would be going to the land I'm planning to purchase, not but a few miles from Herschel Greene's farm, just in case I decide to get involved in canon at all. Besides, from the show I feel like I know them a bit or at least I know some of their personalities, I've considered inserting myself into whatever you would consider canon, as it's silly to think of it as canon as there is no real great plot, and they don't stop the end of the world or anything. Just a group of down trodden survivors who are suċkɨnġ at life. Besides, I only really need one word, Maggie, she is HOT! Even if I don't plan to try and get with her, eye candy never hurt to have around, right? Besides I know most of them are good people in the end, that's more than I currently know about my own future security detail, even though I trust my brothers judgement, after all, you don't survive in the special forces for over a decade without learning how to deal with people, or making some kind of contacts over the years, but i have also met some of my brothers friends over the years, they always seemed like good dudes, the sort I wouldn't mind having my back in a fight, even though technically that was this body's memories and not my own, it still counted.

I'm still thinking I should try to start off with Rick Grimes, meeting him when he gets to Atlanta riding his horse like a cowboy. I obviously wouldn't be alone, as I'm sure my brother would order me to be knee capped if I tried to do that, but me and a small security detail dressed casually, but well armed obviously, I would be doing this more for entertainment than any real reason, and to meet the people the series was built around of course, can't forget that! I hope one of the people coming is a girl, because for some reason it always seems that if there is a female in the group they seem less evil or something, especially if they are decently treated or at least equally well treated to others. ah well I will probably obliterate canon after a few days anyways and I have no interest in not changing things because, well.. almost everyone dies in the canon story so that would seem pointless to me. And definitely not the reason I came to this verse.

Over the weeks, the main compound was finished, my bunker was under my own house, the house was a beautiful colonial styled home, three stories with a large front porch with large white columns spaced across, the home was about three thousand five hundred square feet but that didn't include the large bunker that was made in the basement level, it went down three stories on its own, it was meant to be the fallback and last resort in case things truly went to shit. The top floor was was the armory and security level, the entrance could survive most things and the only way in was my or my brother biometric signatures, it was about fifteen hundred square feet, the next level was the living level, had anything needed, entertainment, even a small bar. It was three thousand square feet and could accommodate ten people. The last level was just a large cavern built underneath the second level with a cargo elevator attached, it was almost eight thousand square feet of space, and was meant to be used for storage, it had a large walk in freezer that was almost five hundred square feet itself. The rest was just for supplies, MRE's and water storage, there was also a few thousand rounds of ammunition with extra weapons in case the top floor got cut off.

Not far behind the house, at least in sight of it, you could see the solar farm from the top floor of the main house. There were hundreds of large panels, and enough of them to power the basic needs of a small town or at least a few thousand people. Which is convenient as he basically built a small town including a movie theatre and bowling alley. The housing was apartment styled, each apartment building having at least two hundred units, for single people or those without children or family's. Another building was built for those with family's, larger than the other as the rooms would need to accommodate more people per apartment, but still it only had about one hundred units.

He built everything he could think a town would need, including gas stations, with a great many extra underground storage containers with fuel, so they wouldn't need to scavenge for a while, also stockpiled fuel treatment to keep it and other fuel viable longer.

On another note, I realized that one of my favorite things would be gone from the world for a very long time, I loved music! More to the point I didn't want all the people who made the music to turn into walking corpses so I was trying to think of a way to save a few of my favorite artists, and then it came to me, to save an artist just have a couple week long concert! Hopefully they would still be here when the shit hit so maybe they would stay instead of becoming zombie chow! Now I just need to figure out who to try to bring here and how much of a hole it will burn in my wallet.
