New people?

(The bunker layout: when going down the stairs from tom's house there's a 15ft by 10ft space before the rows of weed plants in the middle of the room and at the exit there's the same about of space separating the room)(thank you for reading)

Tom had his palm raised to jasmine and Jackson they understood his meaning. The three had there guns in hand waiting for the group to get closer when they were 10ft away from the door Tom shouted at then. "That's far enough if you take another step we will open fire!"

"Wait wait please! we just need a place to sleep we have a Child and a elderly woman please don't shoot. we saw this bunker hatch so we opened it with are crowbars we didn't know any was down here" a 5.11ft man with green hair at the age of 26 said with his hands up.

"Put all your weapons on the ground we won't take them we just want to see them" Tom announce down the hallway.

The group pasted there weapons forward to the green haired man and he put 3 crowbars on the ground with a revolver.

Jackson was the one to walk down the tunnel first, Tom tried to stop him but Jackson kept walking to the group he kept a 5ft distance, "where are you guys from if you don't mind me asking? and you can pick up your weapons." He said his normal tone trying not to be intimidating.

The group seeing a 6ft man with a built body and clothes stained red walking towards them they couldn't help but be scared. his voice was as cold as ice which wasn't helping the fear they were feeling,"his body is huge!" A little girl blurted out in the back of the group on top of a mans back.

The green haired man grabbed the weapons off the ground passing them back to everyone putting the revolver in the back of his pants, "thank you for your kindness my name is Zack it's nice to meat you, we just came from the city but it's not a city anymore." He said this while talking only one step forward with his hand out.

Jackson couldn't help but smile he tried not to be intimidating but I guess there no hiding how dangerous he was. he walked over to Zack and grabbed his hand, "the name is Jackson I'm the leader of my crew in the bunker, how manny people you have and are you the leader of your group here?" He asked not being able to see past the first few.

"Yes I didn't chose to be but everyone looked to me for answers so I guess I am. We have 3 men including me a elderly woman and a 11 year old girl.He answered while itching the back of his head clearly nervous.

"Just five people made it out the of the city of the dead huh? you guys must have a high kill count but that's not here or there, let me talk to my people to see if they want you in or not. I may be the leader but I don't like my people uncomfortable." He stated.

Zack didn't have time to reply because Jackson already had his back turned waking back into the bunker closing the bunker door behind him.

"Well that guy was real friendly" the elderly lady muttered. (Her name was felicity 5.6ft tall 51 years old with white hair)

"That guy was a lot more friendly then I thought, I thought he was about to tell us to leave with the weapons on the ground." Zack stated with a sigh.

Zack's younger brother Zeke spoke up from the back, "why did you tell them how manny people we had we could have bluffed are way in." He said with angry in his voice.( Zeke also had green hair but only 5.5ft tall age 22)

"Did we see the same guy? I did, that guy was a fucking tank and I bet he knows a thing or to about catching someone in a lie." He argued back.

This made Zeke go quite he just wanted to get his daughter to a safe place. The other man in the group spoke his name was Eric, yah at least he didn't start shooting and yelling like the last guys.

(Eric was 5ft tall with brown hair age 24)

Eric's comment made everyone quite, the last guys tried to kill them they had to run for there life's to live loosing some friends along the way.

"Just let me do the talking and I'll get us through this." Zack stated.

Everyone trusted Zack with there life's that's how they made it out the city and they didn't plan on separating.

After waking up the people that slept through tom's yelling beside clementine, Jackson thought if she could sleep through toms yelling she must be tired.

"We have a group of 5 people at are door looking for shelter and safety, they have 3 men and 2 women one elderly and the other a little girl. Do we let them in or kick them out? I personally don't mind either way there leader looks strong but nothing I couldn't handle." He calmly said looking at everyone's reaction.

The group just waking up was trying to processes the information Jackson just gave them but Fred was the quickest to speak, "why are you asking Jackson your the leader if you think we should give them a chance I'm right behind you, same if we make them leave." Fred announced basically reading everyone's minds.

Jackson raised a eyebrow, "so you would feel safe if I let a bunch of random people in while you were asleep just because I felt like it?"

Fred nodded but everyone else released why Jackson really woke them up, "Jackson I'm glad you woke me up to let me know what's going on. it would be scary to see random people but if it was your call to let them in Jackson I wouldn't mind to much." Jessica answered with honesty.

"So it sounds like it's settled I'm going to let them in but there staying on the entrance side of the bunker while we keep the exit. Sound good? any complaints?" He asked.

Carol raised her hand, "can I go back to sleep now." She asked while still rubbing her eyes.

Jackson smiled at his group he didn't think they had this much faith in his actions, "yes you can go back to sleep sorry to wake you." He said while waving his hand at the group.

Everyone went to the exit and went back to sleep, Jackson had to move clementine since he was sleeping at the entrance looking at the exit. so after successful moving her with out waking her he walked back to the bunker door to be stoped by Tom.

"This is my bunker boy do you think you can invite people in without my permission?" Tom asked in a stern tone making everyone that was still awake tern his way.

Jackson couldn't help but smile but to his surprise, His smile more demonic then he meant to show making Tom take a step back in fear of Jackson's smile, "sorry about that Tom I thought you caught what was happening around here. I'm the leader and your the host unless you have some good advice to give step out the way."Jackson demanded in a voice that sent shivers down everyone's spine making them roll over and go to sleep.

Tom walked away from Jackson without saying another word, Jackson felt bad for a second but it it quickly pasted.

The group seeing Jackson come back so quickly expected the worst, but if he was delivering bad news why is he smiling so hard?

"Congress you have been invited in by yours truly. But there is rules that you have to follow. First you have to stay in your own area. Second your not allowed to touch the marijuana plants. Three if my people want to talk to you they will, don't try and talk to them right now everyone's had a bad day, including you guys that's why I'm giving you a chance don't make me regret it, follow me." He introduced and warned with his cold tone getting his point across.

The group were shocked that they were let in so quickly but they didn't hesitate to follow Jackson, when entering the room they could see weed plants and 9 people scattered about and one was little girl younger then the one they have sleeping in a corner, walking past the sleeping people to walk through plants to a open space on the other side with a door on the right.

"Where does the door lead to?" Zack asked curiously wandered if he was aloud to open it.

"It's toms house, the bombs collapsed the house so nothing in getting in or out that way." He answered casually.

Felicity waked up to Jackson, I know we owe you a lot for letting us in, but is there a way I can get a little bit of weed? I have arthritis and I had a prescription for it but the world has gone to shit now I don't even have my purse." She asked as she looked into Jackson's eyes.

Jackson just walked away from the elderly woman she thought he just ignored her. but he want to go ask Tom.

"I know you probably don't want to talk to me right now, but the elderly woman is have body pains and she said a joint might help would you mind?" He asked without any shame.

Tom turned to Jackson looking him in the eyes not saying a word opening a jar grabbing a joint and a lighter handing it to Jackson.

Jackson didn't think this would happen, "thank you and let me know when I can repay the favor."

Walking back to the elderly woman to get stopped by a hand on his shoulder, "I would like to call in that favor. Tom asked.

Jackson turning to see Tom with a backpack on looking him directly in the eyes, "of course what do you need?"

"I would like us to stay here for a week or so, so everyone can get the proper rest also would like you to keep a eye on your new friends."

This made Jackson smile knowing he didn't make a enemy of Tom and that Tom still trusted him, "of course on both of your questions, I don't mind the water that your plants use will probably last longer then that and my crew has enough food to feed us for 9 days if we ration it out."

Tom smiled back at Jackson glad that he was understood what was best for the team and he was glad Jackson actually listened to him this time. "Back to what you were doing then thank you for your time Jackson."

Jackson turned away and walked back to Felicity giving her the joint with a lighter, "sorry took so long here you go."

Felicity was practically in tears she never thought she would see a joint again, then she got dragged into a bunker surrounded by weed plants then told not to touch them and when she asked for a joint she thought she got ignored.

"Thank you Jackson this means the world to me and I'll remember this." felicity said on her knees

"You can thank me this time, but if you need more that big guy over there ask him, but try not to bother him to much." He suggested as he pointed at Tom.

Zack walked over helping the elderly woman off the floor. When he got her to sit she leaned against the wall and immediately started smoking the joint.

"You done so much for us already, let me know if there's anything we can do for you Jackson." Zack assured.

Jackson couldn't help but smile but this smile was a kind one they haven't seen before, "I would like to spar with you Zack would you mind?"

Zack took a step back, "is that really what you want I have a good feeling I would've much of a match against you." He said clearly nervous.

"O come on, your telling me you escaped a city that was infested with the walking dead also people taking what they please, finally escaping a napalm strike and you can't match up against 18 year old?" He taunted Zack

Zack didn't get out the city with skill but by luck and this so called 18 year old towered over him and with the body of a dedicated body builder he was scared.

"I..I think your looking at this all wrong we got out the city by pure luck." He stated almost in a panic.

Jackson looked at Zeke who had a disgusted look on his face, "so is that true?" He asked while starting at zeke.

Zeke was seeing why zack was scared of him, when Jackson locked eye contact it was like looking into a hungry beasts eyes, "y..yes that's how we got out by luck just like Zack said" zeke replay clearly scared he was even shaking a little just from eye contact with Jackson. He didn't know why but his body told him to follow Zack's lead on this one.

Jackson was starting to get aggravated he could clearly tell they were hiding something but he didn't know what. if you don't want to spar then why not we try something else, like story telling I would really like to hear your story from today's fuck fest so what will it be?

With out Zack or zeke even knowing they were backed into a corner either they told there story and get caught in a lie or fight a demon, what to chose.

Zack let out a long sigh, "what would be the rules to this sparing session and can we do it tomorrow we're all clearly exhausted." He asked with a calm tone different from before when he was all nervous.

Jackson picked up on his mood change but he didn't point it out, "it will be a simple spar you will go all out for 5 minutes anything above the waist. while I test your power and of course we can spar when your fully rested and I don't want to spar a corpse." He said while laughing.

Zack could only sigh again it wasn't a spar it was a power test, "thank you again Jackson for letting us in, you didn't have to and I know your taking a risk doing so."

"Of course please just remember my kindness when you think of doing something stupid. Now get some rest." He said as he walked away for Zack.

The group was quick to follow Jackson's instructions lying down on the hard floor falling a sleep.
