Night of the Dead
"Prologue": The Story Before
It was a cloudy night as the moonlight was shining down on the lit high school football stadium. The marching band is playing to the game. The scoreboard read: Golden hawks: 21, Visitor: 35. As one of the players was trampled under the weight of the opposite team, a few marching band members cringed.
"Ooh, that's gotta hurt." said a skinny band nerd holding a trumpet.
Another band nerd holding a baritone stepped around the music stands and instruments laying around the bleachers and walked next to the trumpeter and grabbed his shoulders, causing the trumpeter to flinch and scream. He turned around and looked at the person who scared him. It was Alex, his younger brother.
"Don't do that Alex, you know I scare easily!" He said to Alex.
"I know Jared, that's why I did it!" Alex said as he hugged Jared and laughed really loud.
"KEEP YOUR INCEST IN PRIVATE PLEASE!" Yelled a bandmate in the drumline.
"Hey... Shut up." Jared said looking at the kid with a straight face.
"Nothing wrong with brothers hugging." Alex said to the kid after Jared. The drummer then looked away.
As the two laughed, their band director gave them a stink eye, which brought them back to playing their instruments.
At an old abandoned factory across town
"Yes, soon my pretties will rise again, and destroy this dry land of a town. Then, I'll expand my undead army, ALLOWING ME, TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" A man was standing in an old laboratory looking at over 30 rows of dead bodies. His body was unseen as he was standing in the darkness. He twisted the gas valve on a tank and a green gas flew into the air. "Soon my pretties.. Soon" *THUD* The man fell to the ground unconscious from the chemical in the air. Suddenly, the bodies lying around the room started twitching, their eyes opened wide and were glowing purple. The bodies stood up, looked around, and then started limping to the open door. They looked around and saw people walking around on the sidewalks and in cars. Then, without warning, a body screamed, making a scream that a zombie would make and started running as a horde towards the road. They attacked all the citizens they saw and ate them. They then saw the stadium lights of the football stadium and started zombie running towards the stadium.
10 Minutes Later
Jared, Alex, and the rest of the band were in the bleachers playing pep band. Jared looked over during a break and saw Jake, his other younger brother, sitting all alone, looking down and depressed. He walked over to Jake and gestured Alex to do the same. He sat down next to Jake and put his arm around his shoulder, causing Jake to snap out of his daydream in surprise.
"Oh, hey Jared." Jake said with a half happy, half sad face.
"Why so glum chum?" said Alex, sitting down on the other side of Jake.
"Yeah, we wanna kno…?" Jared paused and sniffed the air.
"What's up?" Jake asked confused.
"Do you smell that? It smells like alcohol mixed with skunk juice." Jared said holding his nose.
Jake and Alex smelled the air and quickly held their noses in disgust. "My God, that smells horrible!" Alex yelled while holding his nose. "It smells worse than a dead cow laying in its own crap!" Jake said rubbing his watering eyes. As the smell went away, the trio went back to watching the game. Jared looked off towards the town to see if anything was more interesting. He then noticed a big group of people walking towards the stadium. He poked at Jake to make him look.
"That's a lot of people. I wonder what they're doing." Jake said looking at the group. Soon the whole stadium crowd was staring at the huge group. All of a sudden, the group of people walked over to the fence and climbed over it. Suddenly it hit Jared what was happening, he stood up, and screamed at the top of his lungs, "ZOMBIES!" The horde that had left the laboratory have reached the stadium. The whole stadium grew quiet, then all that was heard was the distorted screams of the undead horde running towards the field.
Forgive me for this, I write short chapters and this is my first story.
