Chapter 1:
Autumn Streets
Footsteps echoed on the dark abandoned street with desolate houses. Occasionally the wind would blow causing autumn leaves to blow across the path of a girl, whom stood no more than five feet five inches in height with dark brown shoulder length hair and dark blue sharp eyes. She wore a dark blue trench coat over her black long sleeve shirt, baggy blue jean pants, black combat boots, and carried a camouflaged drawstring backpack in her hands. She stopped at the street's corner with a small shuffle to listen to her surroundings. Sirens from police cars quite a ways away could be heard patrolling the streets. She shook her head with a sigh, and stuffed her hands in her coat pockets thinking back on the events the recently have been happening.
Things around her small town had been getting crazy since two days ago. People randomly disappearing, then returning looking grotesque and rotten and attacking the remaining people in the town. In turn the people attacked either died or rose up and started to cause more destruction, looking just as grotesque as the "ghouls", where that term came from no one knew, that attacked them in the first place. Every time the police retaliated they would be overwhelmed and forced to retreat. Most people already evacuated the small town but those who remained were trying to get rid of the threat on their own, recently with the help of law enforcements. That's why she was here, patrolling the streets to find out where the ghouls were.
A sudden thump of several things walking on the ground broke into the girl's train of remembrance. She turned around and gasped as she saw a fistful of ghouls moving in her direction down the street. She pulled out a walkie-talkie from her coat pocket and pressed the button to contact the rebel division.
"Ghouls are appearing on Maple Road and 1st Street heading towards 2nd Street. Back up needed immediately." She yanked open her bag and pulled out a gun and a clip of bullets. As she shoved the clip into the gun a response came in.
"Copy that Liala. James and Cecil are heading your way. They'll be there in ten minutes."
Crap I don't think I can hold them off for that long,Laila thought and said "Get them here in five."
She dropped her walkie-talkie into her bag and shot off twelve rounds. The ghouls were three quarters of the way up the street when she began firing her gun. Her bullets randomly hit them a few in the head some in the arms and chest a few actually fell down to the ground but more just kept coming. She dug out to more clips from her bag and stuffed one of them in her coat pocket. She released the empty cartridge from her gun then quickly loaded the clip again. She slung her bag over her shoulder, turned and ran down the street.
The ghouls chased after her more coming by the second. She fired off a few more rounds and a few more fell just barely making a dent in their numbers. Her legs started to burn and her chest grew tight. She took a sharp corner and ran down the alley this bought her a minute of reprieve. Her walkie-talkie muffled yet audible sounded.
"Laila where are you? James and Cecil were nearly at the location you told them to go to but their being barred by the military of some kind. Are you okay?"
Laila muttered under her breath, "Yeah sure I am…" and fumbled with her bag to get it open she heard the ghouls getting closer and knew she didn't have much time. "Crapitty crap, crap, CRAP… open you damn thing!" open it did in fact it tore right down the seam spilling all her ammo plus her walkie-talkie on to the floor. She cursed and stuffed as many clips as she could in her pocket. She scooped up the walkie-talkie and was relieved when it was still working.
"Headquarters come in." she said pressing the button, she looked up and cursed her break was over the ghouls were catching up again, she sighed and began to run again. "I'm being chased down the alley of 3rd Street, am I close to the blockade yet?" If she could just reach the blockade maybe she could make it out of there. She looked behind her and saw the ghouls at the beginning of the alley and she was near the end. She smiled and thought I just need to keep at least this far away from them and I'll be alright maybe.
The walkie-talkie radioed in and said "Sorry Laila, but your at least ten blocks away."
"What you got to be kidding me!" Laila answered back angrily. She stopped, turned and shot the rest of her clip into the ghouls. Then continued on running, she exited one alley way out into the street. She saw that ghouls were coming from the alley ahead so she turned to the right and ran that way.
"No I am not. Just get out as quickly as you can the military down there is doing a "Clean up" and I wouldn't want to be down--"
"Damn it." She said under her breath. The walkie-talkie had lost power. She threw it on the ground and pulled out three clips out of her pocket. The ghouls behind her were catching up and she'd only gone two blocks just one block away from downtown. She skidded to a halt when she saw that she was blocked off yet again by the ghouls. She released the empty cartridge and loaded the gun with a higher purpose to kill now. She yelled in frustration firing into the crowd of ghouls. Quite a few fell and she turned around and fired into the crowd behind her.
Laila took off running she climbed the brick fence and jumped over it and landed with a thud. Unfortunately it had barbed wire at the top and the palm of her hands bleed from the deep scratches. Ouch, why the heck would anyone want stupid barbed wire on their fence? And now my feet hurt too great just great. She thought when she realized where she was.
She was behind the courthouse which jailed some of the overnighters, who incidentally were relocated to another town. She wiped her hands pants and just shook her head at what she just did. A sigh escaped from her mouth as she got back up on her feet gingerly and began walking towards the back door of the building.
Yet again she reloaded her gun and sighed yet again when she found out she only had that one and another clip left. "I'm doomed, I'm dead, I'm dust, and I'm dead twice over again." she muttered under her breath. "Well at least this time I'm prepared." When Laila got to the back door she kicked it in and looked around. No ghouls in the first room. She went to the door on the other side and opened it quietly.
She shuffled out into the hallway looking around, first left right up wards and behind her again. She shut the door quietly and made her way down the dark hall. She chanted in her head, please don't let ghouls pop out suddenly, please don't let ghouls pop out suddenly… and kept at it until she reached the front hallway. What she saw there nearly made her groan aloud and feel sick at the same time. A small hoard of ghouls were feasting on the remains of people with a gurgling, rumbling, chewing, and chomping sounds, not to mention the smell which permeated the main hallway.
She sucked in her breath and stepped out of her small hallway. She took another step towards the door, another one and another one. Slowly she managed to take about ten steps before they smelled the blood coming from her hands and turned their attention to fresh blood. She screamed and bolted for the door. Sadly her feet still weren't completely recovered so she tripped not to far away where she started and landed heavily onto the floor. She slid a couple of feet from the momentum, and tried to get back her breath.
Laila shuddered and climbed back to her feet firing her gun. The ghouls kept coming and she back up into the wall, firing until nothing but clicks could be heard from her firearm. She gritted her teeth, only one more clip and the ghouls she managed to hit just kept coming. She shook, from fear. From knowledge about what those ghouls could do. From the decision she made in her mind. If I can't get out of here I'm not going to let them change me into one of those monsters!
She looked and found a path still open to the door. I can do this, I just got to make it…Her face was grim as she fired off into the hoard. Bang, a shuffled step, bang, a few more steps, Bang, a shuffled step. She managed to actually get fifteen feet close to the door before she realized she had only one bullet left. She bit her lip and shuddered trying not to cry. I was so close. She brought the gun to her head as the ghouls surrounded her, Tears streaming down her face.
The glass doors and windows exploded behind her sending a shockwave that knocked her down. Her gun knocked out of her hand, it discharged and hit her in the lower left arm, along with some of the glass that embedded in her back she screamed in pain. Laila clutched her arm with her right hand blood gushed out at an alarming rate. Somewhere through the pain she heard gunshots and glass breaking and under feet. She looked up and saw a tall man in a red trench coat he was carrying a chrome-plated .454 Casull. He had black hair and orange sunglasses.
"Who…Who are you?" Laila asked trying to not black out.
"Me?" He just laughed and gave her a sadistic grin. "I'm the No Life King, Alucard."
