Meanwhile, in the community, in Valea Ia?ului, the nurse who was saved from Curtea de Arge? by the military help is attending the wounds of some soldiers who were hurting from yesterday attack when they were all confronted by that weird group of terrorists. As the woman was attending the leg wound of a soldier, by rolling the bandage all over his leg.


    "Those people are against us." says the soldier to Mihaela, making her suddenly stops from her tending the wound.


    "What do you mean?" she asks toward the soldiers laying in the bed.


    "The ones who attacked us that night." say the injured soldier.


    "You mean those?"


    "Yes. Those attackers." responds the soldier coughing.


    Mihaela grabs him as the man was coughing harder, but when she caught him, the soldier tells her the rest of the sentence.


    "They were once members of this community."


    "You should rest." says Mihaela to the soldier. "You will tell me later."


    Mihaela tends the wounds of the soldier, then after she tends the wounds of another person injured in there, which were only some injuries on his body due to a car crash from yesterday. He came into this community by another transport not from Arges county, but from Sibiu county, with another seven survivors.


    After she finished her job, Mihaela heads outside, leaving the two injured people alone to heal.


    ***


    Back on the barn, from the five soldiers and the two survivors who are stuck in there, all are staying in there, waiting for the zombies to scatter from their surroundings. This will take a while since there are more than hundreds of aimlessly walking dead bodies on these crops, roads and on this village. The soldiers and volunteers are all having weapons to help themselves, but they are waiting for their two other soldiers that have left the barn to search for a way to create a big noise. And there are the drivers, who are trying to fend off the zombies who are chasing them.


    Petre is with his group in the barn, they are all waiting for the zombies to leave the surroundings of this barn. He is looking through narrow opening of this barn walls to see the threats outside.

    "There are a lot of them." says Petre in a whisper tone to his people.


    "Do you think we can take them?" asks a soldier to Petre preparing his rifle.


    "I don''t think we can." says Petre seeing more zombies walking past the barn, three zombies running in circles, one jumping around the crops of the barn, and a zombie lunging on another zombie. "These things are really aggressive."


    "Didn''t a bullet in the head can kill them?" asks Gancea.


    "Yes." says Petre turning around and looking at Gancea. "A bullet to the head may be killing the zombies. But some of them, cannot be stopped that easily. Even if you can pierce the brain, they can still move. Just like chickens when their heads got caught."


    "And burning is the only solution." says a soldier to Petre.


    "Exactly." says Petre.


    A loud banging is heard on the barn door. The squad members are looking terrified at the door. They are staying quiet and waiting for the loud banging to stop. But the banging noise becomes repetitive and louder, meaning more zombies have joined the banging. The survivors notice how the door is starting to move a little, even though the door is blocked by these tractors who were moved in there by them.


    "Prepare yourselves!" says Petre to his men.


    All of the people in this room have quickly got their weapons armed and ready to fire.


    As the banging and thudding noise of the zombies become louder, the survivors are looking more concentrated to the door. Then, Petre looks to the hole he used to see the zombies, and he is shocked to see there is a zombie, who is looking at them. Petre has never seen a thing like this, a zombie who peeping on the holes of the barn. Then, Petre aims his gun to that hole and shoots the thing. Three bullets it took from that gun, to hit the creature eye and making it fall.


    "What did you do?" asks a soldier to Petre.


    "Now they will all be coming here!" yells a soldier.


    "We''ve been spotted by them a long ago." says Petre and he runs toward the backdoor of the barn, where he takes off the creates who were used as a blockage. "We have to move on from here. The barn may be collapsing."


    The banging and hitting of the barn front door, has made the door move a little more centimetre, enough to make a few zombies tries to slide in this narrow opening. It may be still tough for some to get after survivors since they have been using these tractors as a blockage.


    After taking the crates from the backdoor, the people are running from there, slaying the three zombies who were near that door, by stabbing their heads with big knives and stomping the heads with the back of their assault rifles. The people are running, while Petre stays back, he looks at this barn. He immediately takes from his vest a grenade, he pulls the pin and threw the grenade into the barn, then he runs from there.


    "What did you do?" asks Gancea to Petre.


    "A distract-"


    He couldn''t finish the sentence because of the explosion from the back. The entire barn exploded. The tractors from that barn were all filled with gas, and there were also a few gas cans in there, most were empty or half empty. The explosion was loud enough to make some zombies turn their attention to barn. Who, because it had a lot of wheat and weed stored in, it started to burn on a fast speed.


    The group looked back at this explosion, but seeing this as a distraction and a way to divert the zombie attention from human meat, they all decide to use this moment as an opportunity to escape. This explosion gave the people enough time to run from there into the forest, and run toward the nearby abandoned houses.


    "Was this your best idea?" asks a soldier to Petre.


    "It was the only choice." responds Petre to his people.
