The farm was a large territory in Zain's system. It covered a massive area and was on the border between their territory and the Zombie Hunter's territory. It was quite well placed because even though there was a vast amount of land, the number of zombies on the land itself was relatively small.
In the first place, there just weren't many humans that were here from the beginning. It did, however, get overrun by hungry zombies at some point searching for food, but even then not many zombies would linger around due to the lack of humans.
This was why Zain was only able to control around fifty zombies in the area. Usually, for something this size, he should have been able to command at least 200. The good news for the group as well was the fact that they knew the area well. They had come here to clear it before, and were following the same path that they went through last time, walking through the large cornfields.
"Do you know where they are, Zain?" Skittle asked.
"Yeah, it seems that they have hidden in one of the large barns, one away from the Farmhouse. They did quite well and have gotten rid of half of the zombies I had controlling the area. For now, I've ordered them not to attack, but to make some noise once in a while," Zain stated.
Hearing this, Skittle could only imagine the torture in the others' minds. They had no clue how many zombies were out there, and hearing the zombies just outside their doorstep once in a while was sure to make it difficult to rest and sleep.
"You have to remember, Zain, it's not their fault that they're like this," Skittle said. "I know you care a lot about survival, and I think a lot of the decisions you made make sense, but I also think you have to remember that they too are only doing everything they need to, to survive."

It's the same for these guys. I know we were originally human, but I believe that they will always see us differently from them."
"But haven't you found those that don't care that we are what we are?" Skittle asked.
He had seen what Zain went through. Images of Kelly, who was now with them, and images of Cody and the general had appeared in his mind.
"I'm happy that you saved me that day, I really am, and I don't know what would have happened to me if you didn't, but I can't help but think that maybe Buke was just initially shocked. All of what happened to us, it started at the beginning of all of this mess.
"Maybe with everything we know now, he might act different, and the three of us could be working together." There was a large smile on Skittle's face when he said these words.
Images of all of them when they went to university together appeared in his mind, the good days, the bad days, and even when they would all get in trouble together.
"I guess we'll never know because Buke is dead," Zain said.
The group had approached the barn and had exited out of the woods. The door was closed, and they had walked past a few of the dead zombies on the way there. From the look of their bodies, it was hard to tell just what type of powers they had.
In the first place, this was a scouting mission, which was why all of them decided to hide. Zain and Skittle hid behind a tractor. The other three, Kelly, Kun, and Pink, had hidden behind large haystacks that were blocking their view.
When everything was ready, it was time for the signal to start. Zain opened up his system, and with the remaining zombies in the area, ordered them all to storm towards the door at once.
One zombie was seen running out from the cornfield, and soon, following it, were others all sprinting ahead. When reaching the door, they banged on it with their fists. The door was only made out of wood, and the strength of the door itself wasn't that great.
When more and more zombies started to appear, the door was starting to break under the repeated banging one after the other.
Inside the barn, all of them had popped up to their feet and were looking at the situation.
"Crap, they were all so calm before, and now they're acting up like this!" Cleve said. "I thought we could take it easy with this one. I know something wasn't right since we got here."
"What are we going to do?" Benny asked, already holding onto the axe.
"We have no choice; we have to fight. Come on!"
The door was broken, and one or two zombies could now come inside at a time, but it wasn't big enough to let them all in. Benny was the first one to charge forward and swinging his axe to the side, he had killed one immediately.
As for the other zombie, it was frozen in place, and it allowed Benny to swing his axe again, killing the other zombie.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZain, noticing this, made it so the zombies backed off a bit, and just as expected, the whole group of Zombie Hunters broke through the door to see that they were surrounded.
"Alright, there aren't as many as I thought there would be, we can do this!" Cleve said.
eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ Hiding behind the truck, Skittle and Zain were watching everything, and they soon noticed someone in the group, a member of the Zombie Hunters.
"Hey Zain, are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Skittle asked.
"Yeah," Zain replied. "It's Jade."
