A few moments later, the van with Raoul and Jon, arrives at the cabin owned by Jon. They park the van in front of the cabin and starts to unload it. Raoul takes the bikes from the van, while Jon takes the fuel bottles and goes with them inside the house. Raoul stores the bikes on the backside of the cabin.


    As Raoul got there, he noticed a zombie corpse, laying on the big grass, he looked at that thing, who is looking a bit different from the other ones. Raoul noticed this thing has a mushroom that has been grown into his head, but this mushroom doesn''t resemble the ones he has seen in his high school biology class. He was curious about it, and he wanted to touch it, but his instincts told them not to. Raoul put the bikes on the back, and he goes inside the house, where Jon, comes to him, and he tells him.


    "The soldiers! I have spoken with them."


    "And?" says Raoul feeling overjoyed.


    "They cannot help us." says Jon feeling sad as he delivered the news. "They say it will take at least one week until their evacuation will be ready. They didn''t tell me why, but they said they can at least drop something for us."


    "And?" says Raoul after a few seconds of silence.


    "I did not request them anything. But they mentioned an air drop that will be dropped close to Mayenne."


    "Oh…" says Raoul feeling bad because they have infected that city with much more zombies that it previously was.


    Jon turns around he goes into the kitchen, while Raoul is going on in his bedroom.


    ***


    Two days later, the state of the two survivors at the cabin doesn''t look exactly good, but it is worse on Jon case who has started to cough a lot more than he usually does when he smokes a cigarette or two in the morning. Raoul was trying to help the old man by giving him a few medicine pills, but he refuses to take any of it, and stating: "This is an ordinary smoker cough. I will be fine.".

    Yesterday, they did nothing, they only stood on the house, waiting for the days to end and trying to contact someone on the radio. They have also read a few books from the bookshelves in the living room Jon has acquired from bookshops, libraries who were about to be demolished and other sources. They also left the house and look around their surroundings. Raoul showed to Jon the corpse with a mushroom, and Jon, who was not curious he said.


    "We''d better not touch it." says Jon, and he took a shovel, which destroyed the mushroom, who then released some stinky smell into the air as Raoul described it to Jon, while they were carrying the corpse of that zombie and threw him over the fence.


    On this morning, after they took the breakfast, Jon was going to the radio and tried several times to make a contact with military or with somebody close. But this didn''t work as Jon tried for three hours, so he decided to leave it alone and go somewhere in the house to lose time. He goes to the living room, where he reads a book he never had the time to do it.


    But as he read the book, he started to feel a little dizzy. It was not even finishing the second page, and he puts the book on the table, and gets up from his chair, heading outside from this room, to the hallway. When Jon got there, he spotted Raoul walking, and he looked at him.


    "Hey. I am not feeling too good."


    "What''s wrong?" says Raoul running closer to Jon, and holding his shoulders. He looked carefully at him. "You look pale."


    "M-Maybe I am tired."


    "You need some sleep."


    "B-But the blackout."


    "Don''t worry. I am able to open the generator and power up the electric fences and lighting. Now we have to move you to your room and let you rest, man. You deserve some sleep."


    Raoul escorted Jon to his room, where he helped him to get on his bed, put the blanket on him, and shut off the lights from the room. When he finished all of this, he was about to leave the room, then, Jon stopped him.


    "Raoul. Can you put a knife next to my bed?"


    "Huh?" asks Raoul turning back to Jon, feeling uneasy. "Why would you need the knife for?"


    "To make sure I am safe."


    "From what? No zombies will be able to get here with the electric fences on, turrets and me."


    "But…"


    "Don''t worry." says Raoul getting closer to the old man. "As long as I am here, you are going to be fine. We got it much better than the people outside. And believe that."


    "I-I think you are right."


    "Cool. Now. Good night."


    "Good night." he says to Raoul as he was opening the door leaving the door, closing behind him, and locking up.


    When Raoul left the room, Jon was looking at the ceiling of his room. he raised his right hand, and looked at the light from outside the window, and he sees some blue veins on his arm, showing much clearer than what is normal to be.
