Code Zulu Alpha: Nerd in the Apocalypse!

Chapter 439: 439

Kaley and I finished much sooner compared to Tatiana, Rin, and Cynthia so we took a shower to clean ourselves. We decided to soak in the hot tub until the three came knocking so we could change the sheets while they were showering.

I was scrubbing Kaley’s back when she turned around to look at me.

“Yeah?” I asked.

“Kiss me.” Kaley pouted her lips cutely.

“Where?” I joked.

“What do you mean where?!”

“Well, I could kiss you in all sorts of places…” I chuckled.

“Oh~ Is that so~ huh~? Don’t tempt me or you won’t be able to wake up in the early morning to clean the guns, do you want that to happen? Hmm~?” Kaley was smiling wickedly where she was biting her lower lip while slightly squinting.

The two of us looked at each other for a short moment before we started laughing. We were both really tired and we need some sleep. Well, a kiss was easy enough to do so we settled with that for the moment.

It didn’t take long before the three came knocking while Kaley and I were just casually talking about a few things. Tatiana joked about dragging us back to the shower but we quickly made our way back to our room before the joke became a reality. We wore comfortable clothes and after that, we changed the sheets, the blankets, and the pillowcases.

Kaley and I were under our blankets once more but when we were about to fall asleep, the three piled over us and pretended they were already asleep. They weren’t as heavy but it was enc.u.mbering because we were also covered with our blanket.

“Guys… we need to sleep…” Kaley muttered.

“Let’s pretend that we couldn’t hear her… that usually works…” Tatiana jokingly whispered to the two on top of us.

“W-Why are we doing this a-again?” Cynthia asked, chuckling.

“It’s to prevent them from f.u.c.k.i.n.g while we’re asleep… shh… not so loud…” Tatiana giggled.

“Didn’t we just do the same thing earlier when you woke me up?” Rin asked.

“If you two gotta know, I’ve woken up a couple of times seeing them f.u.c.k.i.n.g each other’s brains out. It’s their little thing so we’re trying to solve their problem for them…” Tatiana replied.

“Guys… stop… we really~ need to sleep…” Kaley chimed.

“How is piling over us gonna help?” I added.

“Oh, I lied. I just wanna join in and I want to include them.” Tatiana said flatly then she started laughing hysterically.

It took a few joint locks to get them loose but we relented as we let them share our blanket. Cynthia was behind me while Rin was behind Kaley and I don’t have a f.u.c.k.i.n.g idea while Tatiana decided to sprawl on top of us four. She was the first one to fall asleep too so it baffled everyone that was still awake. We just made an executive decision to roll her like a burrito with a separate blanket so the four of us could have some peace and quiet.

Time continued to pass and I once again woke up in the early morning. I cleaned a few with Kaley that also woke up to help me and we set aside a few dozen guns for Jessica’s group. It was a mix of rifles, shotguns, and pistols chambered in common calibers. They were all in good working condition but I added a few attachments for three guns that I would be handing to Jessica, Eric, and Jane for their personal use.

What they have on their person was useable but I just planned on giving them a little upgrade.

For Jessica, I first wanted to give her Kaley’s old AR-15 from PSA but she told me she wanted Olivia to have it instead. So, I brought out a similar AR-15 but it was from Ruger which was called a Ruger AR-556. I simply added a sling, a cheap suppressor, a red dot, back up sights, and a vertical foregrip. As an extra bonus, I’ll be giving her a plate carrier and a war belt where she could place other accessories like her backup pistol, knife, and extra magazines. It was all up to her on what she would do with it but I would definitely give some recommendations.

I would be giving body armor to Eric and Jane as well but it wouldn’t be as good as what I would be giving her.

For Eric, a tried and tested Remington 870 would be a reliable tool because the number of repairs done on his shotgun which even I couldn’t recognize made me wonder how was he still alive without it exploding on his face. A simple sling and a flashlight were added for stability and visibility but I opted out of adding in a Salvo 12.

For Jane, a Glock 17 placed inside a Micro Roni was what I prepared.

A Micro Roni was a nice little tool to convert your pistol into a mini carbine. It was designed for better ergonomics and added accuracy. It offers a long Picatinny Rail for mounting optics and other attachments where backup sights were already placed, a sling, an integral flashlight, a right-folding stock, and etc.

If it wasn’t for me always carrying a rifle at all times, I would’ve always added my pistols to use this item. However, it could only take in certain pistols and the Maxim 9 I was always using wasn’t compatible with it.

Aside from simply locking the Glock 17 inside, I also added in two 33-round magazines because the Micro Roni had a slot where you could place the extra mag that could act as a makeshift foregrip near the front.

We placed them all in one of the weapons caches that we found aside from the three guns I would be giving them personally. Aside from that, a few hundred rounds of 5.56, 12 gauges, and 9mms were also prepared in ammo cans as part of our deal.

Jessica already made a call to deliver a tanker to the Intercity filled with jet fuel. They obviously couldn’t deliver all of them in a single day so the deliveries would be carried out periodically with an armed escort. That would be the initial arrangement right until my cargo helicopter arrives. If that happened, my group would also be able to visit their place and meet her people.

It was extremely important to make valuable friends and allies and not just simply taking everyone in that we encounter. The right balance should be met to avoid unnecessary conflict and disagreements between large groups of people.

Time quickly passed and I handed the guns to Jessica, Eric, and Jane after breakfast. Mauricio saw it but his reaction told me that he definitely had a personal collection. He himself had a nice setup and I was sure he had more stashed somewhere.

The three of them were definitely thankful but the word ‘excited’ wasn’t enough to describe Eric’s reaction.

“Take care of it, yeah?” I chuckled when he was caressing it almost uncomfortably.

“I will, thanks! Shit, it even smells and tastes new! Holy f.u.c.k!” Eric was about to lose it.

“Ew~ Why did you f.u.c.k.i.n.g lick it?!” Jane exclaimed.

“I’m ‘marking’ it! Bite me!” Eric retorted.

“A-Anyway… thank for the guns and the bonus gear. I’ll be holding up the other end of the deal and you’ll get your first batch after my group delivers it in the Intercity.” Jessica shook my hand.

I then started explaining how to use them properly and with the proper maintenance as a short mandatory lesson. I know that Jessica probably knows how to operate each but it wouldn’t hurt to be extra careful.

After the short lesson, Oscar approached me.

“Kid, as you know, that f.u.c.k.i.n.g parts salesman didn’t come yesterday. I’ll be bringing your uncle with me to check if he would arrive this time but I’d also be accompanying Jessica and the people we would be sending to their place right until the Intercity. I’d be looking around for other things too so I’ll bring a few items for trade.” Oscar said.

“Sure old man, just don’t get f.u.c.k.i.n.g duped again. I want a whole f.u.c.k.i.n.g car this time.” I replied.

“If you’re going back again bring Mike and one or two of my workers. You could always need an extra pair of hands when hauling stuff.” Jomarro chimed.

“Hmm, I guess so. I’d be bringing soldiers with me but yeah, I’d rather have them at the ready just in case.” Oscar replied.

“Mr. Ishiyama, I’d also be asking another huge favor.” Mauricio approached me as well.

“Sure, what is it?” I replied.

“As you know, Cathy and I came for her treatment but it would take a lot more time for preparation. I could obviously wait for it but I left a lot of important things and tasks back in the Intercity. Noah and Mona could handle it in the meantime but I need to personally check the comings and goings. I would like to leave Cathy with your people possibly Mrs. Payan but I’m coming back with Mr. Goodman later this afternoon.” Mauricio explained.

“It’s definitely not a problem and you don’t have to owe me for that. Cathy is free to do whatever she wants inside the compound and the kids are more than happy to accompany her.” I replied.

“Woof!” Zeus interjected.

“Yeah, Zeus too.” I chuckled.

“I-I guess that’s good news. I believe you’re not going to the Intercity, where are you headed perhaps?” Mauricio asked.
