THE UNEXPECTED HAS HAPPENED by Michael P. Buckley Page B

arrived. It was time to start their trek through the swamps until they could find others like themselves. They cleaned up their sleeping area so it looked like no one had been there.
    Later in the day, they stopped walking when they heard noises of people in the swamps. They laid down flat on the ground and kept quiet, waiting for the people to appear. A small group of five men armed with AK 47 rifles appeared, they were American. David yelled out that he was an American and the group approached.
    The group was out scouting the area for Chinese when they ran into George and David. They all discussed any information, which was available. Turns out the group had a small camp not far from there. They had ten other people at the camp and invited David and George to their camp. They arrived at the group’s camp. David saw four women, two small children, two older men and two men in their twenty’s. Their camp had three tents, no campfires allowed, in fear of attracting the Chinese.
    The group leader was called Scott and his wife’s name was Sheila. Their story was not much different from what happened to David. But they had luck enough to get away before they were captured, and brought to a camp.
    The Chinese came just before nightfall to Scott’s neighborhood. They used megaphones and blared out for everyone to step outside without weapons and surrender to the Chinese people. It was a big mistake on their part. Everyone came outside with their weapons blasting. There had to have been at least thirty dead Chinese, reinforcements came and their neighborhood was taken over. Some escaped like Scott did, but most were captured. They were able to get the AK 47 rifles and any ammo the soldiers had on them. They had seven AK 47 assault rifles and ammo.
    They had managed to get three rifle cleaning kits from the dead soldiers and a few hand grenades, not much else. A few days ago they saw a Chinese supply truck and they were able to attack it, and kill the two passengers in the truck. And the truck carried food and some medical supplies. They had enough food to eat, for water; they made a homemade filter to clean the water before drinking. They used the water from the rain, and then filtered that water. Much cleaner than swamp, water.
    The supply truck had some backpacks that they took also. Scott would give David one person to go with him and George, along with one AK 47, ammo and some food and water. David said that would be appreciated and they would leave in the morning. David told Scott he would name their camp number 100 A. He wanted to set up some kind of organization for others they might find in their search for other Americans.
    Scott and David both went over there ideas on taking back the country from the Chinese. It was decided they had to defeat the Chinese and kill as many as they could. And take back a piece at a time of land, until they were all killed trying or when America was restored to its rightful owners again, who did not include the Chinese.
    Scott told David there was a small clearing up ahead a mile or so and Jerry who was going with us knew how to get there. He knew there was one small house in the area and he was sure the Chinese had taken over the house. They would have to be careful. It would give them a chance to get more weapons for their search for other Americans or it could get them killed, whichever came first.
    David told Scott thanks and said goodbye to the members of his camp, then they headed for the house a mile or so away. David and his group took their time as to not alert anyone with noise. They arrived early afternoon and set in the wood lines, observing for any activity. At the house was one US Army Humvee and two Chinese soldiers sitting outside apparently playing cards, they looked bored.
    David would change the boredom for them soon enough, he waited longer to make sure other soldiers or people did not appear. Their plan was to get close enough to kill them both with the one AK 47 they
