As days went by we either lost people or more people came in. Which meant more people knew we exist. We used UV lamps and and water that was desalinated to grow food. We grew mushrooms too. But we couldn't keep any kind of farm animals. It was impossible. Trying to find a way to feed them was difficult. The food supply was low so we had to expand the property and tried to grow something edible on the surface as well. The fence was stone wall all the way around. We had to dig a moat outside the property for good measure and make sure we didn't expand in that direction or we will end up being flooded with a deadly mixture of water and zombies.
Soon the mess hall expanded till it reached the control room. The people contributed to feed the vampires and werewolves. People would donate blood to feed the vampires while the criminals were fed to the werewolves. No one was allowed to bite a human directly. That was the rule. Their bite would either kill a person or change so they were asked nicely to keep their fangs retracted. The vampire and werewolves took turns protecting people. Then the next problem was children. They liked to scream all the time so we had find a way to sound proof the place. In a few weeks time the place had sprung a market, a few restaurants and a city hall. A month later this place was named Necropolis.
I would go out and to get whatever was necessary for the survival. They observe my movements and try to go out when I go on excisions but I make it clear that they will just slow me down. This caused up roars amongst the people but they had no choice because if they try to go I will go back to my room. I would get a list of things and try to make sure I get it all. I even got us solar panels so we will have electricity. I found the remains of a machine city restaurant where people powered the place with bikes. I asked the others and they like idea of the bicycles exercise. It was moved to the prison where the inmates who were not on death row had to use them for a few hours along with a few treadmills. The next thing that was moved was the grill. We had brought it over and I asked one of the guys to double check if the the gate was locked.
We came up to the observation deck the next morning for a routine check up on inventory to see that the compound was surrounded by zombies. I had to lead them away from the compound and then lock the door behind me. After that we made sure that the gates can be opened and closed only from the observation deck. There is a person who is stationed there at all times. They made sure to keep the place inconspicuous so the military won't find it. We had a few close calls but they were too busy to care about this place.
I had given the humans one rule. No military is allowed here. The reason being that they like to comendere places and boss over people. That rule was broken a week after one year anniversary after we moved there. One of the guys responsible for foraging came with an injured one. Then when he recovered he left only to come with his entire unit a few hours later. Then others followed not after that. These guys would go around telling everyone where we are. I was certain that the scientists will show up with specimens soon. Tunneling was done till there was a room for everyone. I made it clear to those imbeciles that I run the facility so they are not allowed to bring in specimens for experiments. Or they will be thrown out. The people heard what I said and started to demand that these military people be evicted. Since there are so few safe places left in the country the soldiers promised that no one will do experiments in this facility. They are looking for ways to kill these things. They are running out of ammo and people.
They weren't told about our existence till much later. They tried to recruit us but we refused. We reminded them that we had a sour history with them. They kept persisting but finally they realized that no means no. They made peace with the fact that they won't get everything that they want. The werewolves used to be military so they tried to help but was warned not to by the council so they left it alone. Sometime after that the underground metropolis had politicians as well. Also what was left of the government moved in as well.
Pretty soon there were those that wanted to do experiments on zombies wanted to stay here but we gunned down the specimens as they were being hauled in. This caused an uproar but they had no choice but to remain silent without any sort of experiments till they found another base of operations. When they found one we asked the guys in the military to go with them since they were the reasons these nincompoops had arrived. They protested but the mayor of the humans reminded them that if these guys showed up then they had to leave with them. What was left of the government tried to negotiate with us but we made it clear that they are not recognized as authorities in this city. So if they wish to stay then they had start following the rules or they are welcome to leave. The other residents started protesting They wanted these guys to leave. Ever since they had arrived trouble had tagged along too. The locals gave them no option but to leave. We gave them enough food for a week and escorted them to the door. They were staring at us with contempt as they walked out of the gate.
We knew we had to come up with a counter offensive to take down the zombies. I waited till it was safe before I went out on a trip and found one the drones that the Machine City used to chase those things away. I brought it back to Necropolis and it was repaired after much hard work. I tested it out and my fellow immortals and I came up with a plan. When word got out that we were getting rid of them people started to volunteer. They wanted to eradicate them permanently. They had a lot of questions too.
The main question was who was making them. We realized the answer was no one. Two hundred years ago when those things were banished into the sea they had survived. They just roamed around and decided that they needed to come back to eat us. Of the eighteen types that Machine City had made only two had survived. These first was the aggressive ones and the slightly intelligent one. By intelligent I mean they can wield things, can drive and knows how to use simple basic things. The intelligent ones smell diesel while the aggressive ones smelled like burnt flesh. So tracking them wasn't the problem. They weren't too bothered about hiding.
Attracting them to towards the destination was an issue. The aggressive ones came willingly but if the intelligent ones feel like something weird is going on they will turn around and go in the other direction. Which makes these things more difficult to kill. The aggressive ones know to stay away from me. But I had to figure out a different method for the intelligent one. I had to flit into their heads and make them think they had a few dozen aggressive seizures to keep them out. I would mask it with a scream or a hair raising wail. This made the others jealous of me. But as I said I was queen so they couldn't do anything about it.
