It has been a few hours since everything has begun in earnest and my people have cleared the general area around the performing centre. Mostly we took care of the mall close to us and the surrounding area as well.

Flashback -

After thinking about what to do after checking the lobby and how things were being taken care of competently unlike in the movies or shows I made a quick plan to help the surrounding area and maybe find more survivors before things turn into a bigger pile of shit.

I called my head of security to me soon after "Marcus, I need volunteers. We are going to help clear some of the surrounding areas. After all the more people we save the less monsters to fight later. Tell the men volunteers only." He looks at me for a moment then solutes before walking away to carry out his task.

A few minutes later I had about 30 men and women that were members of my security detail with me in the lobby including Janet and Jamie plus a half dozen other people who wanted to see first hand how bad things were. Jamie and Janet haven't really allowed me to get very far out of their sight since this all started... sigh. It's fine though I guess, they tend to compliment me when speaking to the other girls since we have been at the centre, so that's a win I think? I'm fairly positive they are Bi, as in they like women and men. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it though? Maybe I am just paranoid that they are trying to set me up with random hot actresses and socialites. Poor me I guess!

I ended up giving the 6 girls a 9mm and a few magazines as they actually knew how to use them at the very least. I wouldn't call them experts but they atleast knew where to point and most importantly where not to point their guns(primarily in my direction). They were to only use them in controlled situations for practice for the most part unless their life is in danger, I would teach them and hope they could survive this new reality.

As we walked out the door with the 6 girls and my 2 escorts close by me I made a loud whistling noise to attract the attention of as many of the walkers as possible, though they were spread out. After a few moments I pulled out my beretta px4 storm 9mm that was attached to my black tactical vest, with twelve magazines that are twenty rounds each and waiting for them to get closer. With my second px4 storm still in a holster on my hip with 2 more magazines attached to it.

Some of the people with me looked a bit anxious especially the 6 celebrities but seeing all the firepower beside them seemed to calm their nerves even if only slightly. "Alright ladies" I spoke to the 6 girls that decided to come with us. "Line up side by side a few feet apart. This is probably the best time to see how well you can shoot one of these things. Remember these things are no longer human!" I told them loudly to make sure I had their attention.

The closest walkers were probably around 75 or so feet away by now so that was the perfect distance to test their aim and ability under some stress. "Once I put my hand on your shoulder, take aim and fire one shot, aiming for the head!" I said loudly to make sure the others heard me.

We started with Amber, she wasn't really that good of a shot but did manage to him it in the torso. Moving to Kristen Stewart and Hayden, they basically missed completely. Natalie managed to shoot one in the mouth, but it wasn't a kill shot but still much better than the others. By now the walkers were around 50 feet away so the shots were probably unfair to compare to each other but that's life I guess. Elizabeth and scarlet though managed to hit their brain buckets. Though I should mention all of them got encouragement from the crowed, those 2 got standing ovations for taking out a walker.

The men knew they were a bit spoilt because of their fame but they were saving judgement since this was a new world for everyone. And everyone who wishes to try should get some kind of chance.

After that round I told them to take aim independently while the zombies get closer. I was of course standing beside them trying to encourage the ones having any issues but the closer the walkers got the more accurate the girls shots became.

Scarlet and Elizabeth were kinda in competition with each other while Janet kept track of their kills, which were beginning to rack up with the zombies being only 30 or so feet away now.

"Alright ladies!" I said loudly to get their attention through their probably ringing ears. "They are getting a bit to close now and I think I will let loose a little" I told them while giving them a wink. Everyone quit firing and backed up a few steps while I walked forward, taking my second gun out of its holster and began rapidly firing into the crowds of walkers heading our way. There had to be around 70 or so that came from the nearby stores but I could see many more in the distance coming.

Each time I aimed at a zombie it fell down less that a half second later, 42 shots in around 20 seconds and 42 kills kinda had peoples jaws hanging low to the ground. " hehehe that's right! Ladies and gentlemen that is how you handle business. Now somebody be a dear and take out the rest while I reload my magazines, also ladies, reload your magazines from your pouches of loose ammo, no reason to leave here with anything less than one hundred percent!" I told them in a cheery voice.
