Chapter Thirty-One

Payson, Arizona

For Bryce, the drive into Payson passed by like all the others. This time, however, Bryce and Logan made small talk with Jessica and Robby to try and keep their minds off the trip. It had only been a full day since Logan and Robby were saved from the town, and now they were already going back. Neither father nor son liked the idea of going back so soon, but Logan knew that it was necessary to get all the supplies and extra people they could get.

Bryce slowed down at the border of town and rolled forward slowly toward the center where the highways converged. He took a left on the main highway and headed toward the gun shop. They arrived at, and all four of them got out of the vehicle with their rifles at the ready. Logan and Bryce entered the gun shop first and took a look around. Robby watched the door and Jessica stayed with the vehicle, because they didn’t want to get snuck up on and they certainly didn’t want to lose a running vehicle.

The scene inside the gun shop was exactly what Bryce expected; the store was all but picked clean, with only a few guns left. Most of the semi-automatic rifles like their AR-15s and AK-47s were gone. The only weapons left were a few old beaten-up hunting shotguns, some World War I era bolt-action rifles that were past their prime, and one Chinese-made SKS rifle. Since Bryce and Logan were not completely picky, they dropped their duffel bags and loaded everything they could get their hands on. When the duffel bags were loaded, they sent Robby to the Outlander to load the weapons into the back.

They grabbed all of the ammunition they could get their hands on, which was not a whole lot; all that was left was the bulk military rounds. All of the new packaged ammunition was gone. Bryce found a few hundred rounds of ammo for the guns they already had, and a small amount for the new guns they just found in the shop. Logan looked at the half dozen or so rifles and shotguns they had collected and frowned. He knew that they were going to need more than these guns to make a dent in the real world. The bolt-action guns were not exactly ideal either. They may have been high tech during World War I, but this was effectively the apocalypse and they needed better technology.

Bryce walked into the manager’s office and started rummaging around. He pushed aside a large bookcase that was partially ajar and found a small metal door. Outside the metal door were scratches, like something had tried to get inside. Probably infected, Bryce figured, and lots of them.

He turned the knob on the door, and surprisingly, it opened into a small chamber. The smell of death immediately overcame Bryce’s senses. Inside the chamber a dead man held on to a pistol that apparently blew the top of his head off, as evidenced by the brain material splattered on the wall behind him.
