The Walking Dead : This Lucky Bastard

After exterminating the horde, they transported the bodies away from the hotel to avoid being disturbed by the smells of putrefaction and infections.

As usual, they then burned their clothes stained with rotten blood, the towns were abandoned and filled with ownerless clothes, they were not going to stay with the same dirty clothes. (I never understood that in the series).

A dinner was organized for the survivors and those who had fought had the biggest shares under the greedy gaze of Diana and her feminists who began to regret having followed this ideology.

In one of their raids in the city, the men brought a recent map of Greenville to Calvin who thanked them as a satisfied smile decorated his face as he touched the map.

 The evening of the same day, Calvin went out at night with only his saber and in less than two hours of rapid travel, he spotted a warehouse and a large supermarket, the "Costco Wholesale" whose metal curtains were thick, solid and lowered.

He managed to enter through a small back door by picking the lock and killed the 15 Walkers inside, apparently, they were employees who had taken refuge there with their families but they ended up dying for a reason Calvin couldn't understand.

 He looked at the used cans and a cooking point where he saw on the side a sachet of rat poison, one of the group had poisoned everyone for some reason. 

Depressive crazy people wanting to die take some innocent with them in death against their will and even without their knowledge.

There were still lots of large canned goods as well as other food items, in the tools section there were lots of useful things. He took nothing and left to organize future looting with his men the next day.

 The next day, Cal and his men extended the territory by pushing back the limits of the land blocked by trucks so that survivors and children could use the streets to train or carry out their activities.

Afterwards, he left with 20 men and a freight truck for Costco where they loaded the canned goods and groceries, made two trips there to pick up other useful things.

Then they went to the warehouse where Calvin and his men were awaited by a pleasant surprise.

 They searched the warehouse and found several things including more dried meat, they already had plenty of it but they weren't going to deprive themselves if they saw it.

They also found several boxes of Brazilian machetes with sheaths. Calvin looked at everything smiling because he would be able to better equip his men.

They searched again to find small bags of different grains to plant, small hammers, boxes of ice picks.

 « Hallelujah!!! » Calvin said as he opened one of the crates, it was the simplest bladed weapon but also the most effective for killing walkers in close combat.

Easy to stick into the dead man's head and easy to remove, the ice pick was a perfect tool for the task.

 He asked his men to load everything before continuing to search to find at the back of the warehouse several boxes for Self storage where he was lured in a certain direction and there he began to open the boxes with a needle until he found a box that interested him.

There was paintball equipment in this storage space as well as crates with Confederate flags on them. Cal rubbed his hands together excitedly before opening them to see Glock 17s packed tightly, in the second crate there were silencers and in the last two crates there was ammo.

 "I would make love to my chance if I could, I love him so much." he said before he started loading up the crates and equipment, he was going to train and create 30 elite soldiers within his group to kill the zombies as well as the annoying survivors.

 When they returned home, the others were quite happy with their arrival, they had brought back even more food than they already had, as well as useful equipment.

Calvin brought everyone together first with his men on one side, then the feminists on the other side.

 Calvin: Once again, hello everyone. I'll start with my group members first. I plan to train 30 elite soldiers for our group so I will need 30 adult volunteers.

 Without even wasting seconds, almost all the survivors stepped forward and Cal had to select the future male and female elites himself.

The 30 chosen ones will be divided into three combat units of 10 soldiers led by Lee, Molly and Christina who themselves would receive even more advanced training than in Savannah.

 Calvin: For the rest, we will raid a few pharmacies as well as the hospital for equipment and medicine. We will never have enough, especially since with each use, the quantity will decrease. Then, we'll drive Diana and her friends to the Costco supermarket where they will stay without bothering us with their presence. There is food there and enough to survive for a long time, we are not so cruel as to let these idiots die like that. Right guys?!

 « YEAH ! »

 "YES BOSS"

 "YOU ARE SO COOL BOSS!" 

 Calvin: We are civilized people, we do things elegantly. As for you ladies, tomorrow you will be taken to a suitable place with food and lots of good things. You'll owe your pitiful little survival to men you despised, it's funny isn't it?! AH AH AH AH !

 Diana and the other women were completely embarrassed, they were looking for a hole to hide.

 Samantha: We want to stay with you!!

 Cal:…

 Others :…

 Diana: I'm ready to take responsibility for all your grudges. I have been in the army and if you want elite soldiers then I will give you my services.

 Calvin: I don't need you, thank you anyway for offering your services.

 Rachel: There aren't enough women in your group for the men. I know we did bad but you killed several of ours, you are a good leader and you take good care of your men. We were wrong, give us a chance.

 Calvin: We'll definitely find other women along the way or in Washington. (to his men) Do you want us to take in these women who wanted to kill us?

 " Never "

 " No "

 "HELL NO"

 «What a joke ! »

 "This is the people's choice" he said teasingly, looking at the women with a mocking smile.

 That evening after dinner, he was playing guitar on the large balcony on the first floor when Rachel came near him.

She was wearing a see-through nightgown and Calvin knew what she wanted.

 Rachel: You play very well. I was thinking that-(interrupted)

 "Get out, you're disturbing the mood" he said sharply without even looking at her before starting to play the wonderful melody he had started again.

Rachel froze as her throat tightened, she was used to being complimented on her beauty but apparently Calvin was tough bone.

 Rachel: Why are you so rude?! You killed women in our camp. Didn't that calm your Angers ?!

 Cal said nothing when Reyes arrived with a bottle of champagne and two glasses before sitting down next to Calvin with whom they kissed in front of Rachel who turned to leave due to embarrassment.

This crazy woman thought she could seduce Calvin, she terribly overestimated herself.

The next day, just as he said, they first went to collect pharmaceutical and medical equipment before taking the women back to the supermarket where Diana and the other women tried to insist on being able to stay with them but they refused.

 There was plenty of food and useful tools, but on top of that, Calvin gave them back their weapons so they would have a chance to defend themselves against intruders with bad intentions or walkers.

They left in front of the women, some of whom were even crying. They had suffered because of certain men after the epidemic to the point of being extremely aggressive but they had attacked the wrong people.
