"ELLIE! WATCH OUT! BEHIND YOU!"
Joel's frantic warning towards her instantly led Ellie to turn around. Her eyes widened with horror when she saw an Infected was charging her way. It was approaching her fast with a sinister glint in its eyes that was full of ambition.
"OH SHI-" Before the teenager could finish the word she was about to blurt out, she was pinned down to the ground by the Infected, resulting in a terrified scream escaping her instead. "JOOOOEEEEL!"
"HEY!" Joel armed himself with his weapons as he ran towards the Infected as fast as he could. "GET AWAY FROM HER, YOU FREAK!"
The Infected took no notice as it held Ellie down under his hold. Vicious noises escaped the undead creature as it covered her face and began carrying out it's intentions for her.
"Let her go!" Joel ordered, using his crowbar to whack the Infected as hard as he could.
The Infected ignored him, keeping Ellie under it's hold with her face covered.
"I said let her go!" Joel's voice was getting increasingly more angry; as loud as the gunshots which filled the air as he fired bullet after bullet at the Infected. "I mean it!"
As if it was refusing to drop dead, the Infected ignored the bullets which punctured it as it kept Ellie in its clutches.
"I SAID LET HER GO!"
Grabbing the lids from two nearby trash cans, Joel used all his rage and hatred towards the creature as it smashed its ugly head between them. The Infected was killed at once as its head was smashed. It dropped down onto the ground, a threat no longer to neither the man nor the young girl he had rescued from it.
Joel wiped his brow, dropping the trash can lids before clenching a fist. "Freak! It's guys like him who are making this world more of a hell-hole than it already is!"
A small groan escaped the teenage girl he had saved. With his glare being replaced by a look of worry, Joel directed it down at her, hoping the Infected hadn't done anything to her.
"Ellie, are you-" Joel began - then he stopped.
He began to laugh.
Ellie sat up on the ground, not one single injury on her body, but a look of distain instead. Her face had been applied with rouge, eye-shadow and lipstick. Her auburn hair had been braided neatly while a golden tiara with silver jewels sat on her head.
"It's not funny!" she yelled at her guardian.
"Sorry!" Joel put a hand to his mouth as he tried and failed to stifle his laughter. "I just never expected a kid like you to look like a princess! Least of all with the help of an Infected!"
"Screw this! I ain't got time for this crap! The next time one of those creeps tries to do this to me, I won't need you to save me, Joel! I'll kill them myself!"
The end.
