This is my first Left for Dead Fanfiction. The story is based around Ren and his life in the infected world when he becomes a new type of infected called… The Ripper. (Ripper will be explained because its my own made up Special Infected)There will be Suspense, Tragedy, Violence (Because of the amount of blood), confort/hurt, friendship, Strong language and of course Romance. There will be some lemon scenes. Maybe…I don't know. This will be a OCxWitch pairing. Anyway let us begin.
Chapter I: Bitten
The Infection came without warning. People started becoming sick thanks to the Green Flu, riots began to happen, people fighting one another, and of course…people turning into flesh eating zombies. C.E.D.A tried to contain the outbreak but of course they didn't and cities have been lost to the infected. Friends, families, loved ones…it didn't matter because they became infected in the end. Those who survived were either immune to the infection or where lucky to not get infected. The Survivors help each other seeing the world as a chaotic place but some survivors take this to their advantage in doing sinister deeds without anyone to enforce them. For some reason though this world is now savage without any strong community. Maybe there are people who started to rebuild even with the infection still going on but that's them. Still I wonder wh-
"Hey Ren hurry up will you!" I heard one of my male associates order.
"S-sorry…I was just thinking about something." I replied as I snapped out of my thoughts.
"Well this is no time for thinking so hurry up!" Another male voice growled.
I soon hurried my pace and caught up with the people I was traveling with so I wouldn't slow them down. My name is Ren and I'm traveling with a few people that I met. Mary, Michael, and Vince.
Vince is the Leader of the group. He's 34 years old muscular guy who has tan skin, dark brown eyes, and blond hair. He wears a read sweatshirt, blue jeans, and brown boots and has a ring on his middle finger. He's a good leader and knows what he's doing but…there are times where he wants us to retreat when things get hairy.
Mary is the only female in the group. She's 26 years old and creamy pale skin, blue eyes and light brown hair that goes down to her waist. She wears a black T-shirt with a chibi skeleton on it, Navy blue jeans that are ripped and black sneakers. She can be a nice person if you don't tick her off so I try my best to stay on her good side.
Michael on the other hand is the tough guy of the group. He's 29 years old and is muscular like Vince. He has dark skin, brown eyes, and short black hair. He wears a blue T-shirt, and black jeans and white sneakers. He's mostly picking on me for no apparent reason so I try to ignore him the most.
I on the other hand am the youngest of the group. I'm 20 years old and I'm not as strong as Vince and Michael. I have dyes white hair with black stripes on the right like a zebra that comes down on my right eye to give me a shy boy look, light tan skin, and blue eyes. I wear a white T-shirt with black sleeves with a giant Skull on it, Black jeans, and black and white sneakers. Basically I'm your typical goth kid. I'm usually the one picked for things that are hard and dangerous for the gang since I'm the youngest and predictable one to die first. Though it may seem horrible I still get by for some strange reason.
The four of us had weapons of course since we're dealing with infected. Vince had a Ak-47, Mary had dual Uzi's, Michael had a auto-shotgun, and of course I was stuck with a pistol but I had a Kanata strapped on my back. The four of us came to a stop when we saw a abandoned pharmacy.
"Hmm…there could be supplies in there." Mary said.
"But its barricaded pretty tight." Michael said.
Everyone started to think of ideas while I looked around to see if there was any type of infected. I then heard Vince call me and turned to see what he needed.
"Ren…go see what you could find a way in there and see what you can scavenge. Vince said.
"Really why me? I always do stuff for you guys so why can't you try to do something." I replied.
"Because you're the only one here that is actually useful." Michael said with a irritated tone.
I sighed in anger and defeat and walked around the building. I couldn't believe that out of every survivor I looked for it had to be these bastards. It's always me who has to do the dangerous tasks and risking my life for their needs. I mean sure I'm not strong like those two but I can fend for myself but I don't want to be alone.
I soon came across a broken window on the side of the building and made my way inside. The building was trashed and their were some corpses on the floor. I then heared some minor growling and turned my head to see six infected who spotted me. They both darted towards me but I was ready for them. I grabbed the katana on my back and began to slash at them. The first two I easily slashed in half while I did a spin attack on the rest slicing their heads in half or clean off.
Seeing as how they were dealt with I began to look around the area to see if it was safe and I was happy to see nothing alive. I began to look around in the counters for anything. Some important medication have been taken by other people who may have survived but I was able to rustle up some 10 Pain Pills and 5 Medkits in the pharmacy. I continued looking for some more supplies but it was cut short when I heard the screeching of the dangerous Hunter.
I wasn't able to retaliate when I heard him screech and the infected pounced on my back and sank his teeth in my neck and tear a chunk of skin and flesh off of my neck.
"AAHHH!" I howled in agony.
I then felt the infected drive his talon like claws slash at my back and I continued to yell in pain. I then saw my gun that I dropped and reached my arm out to grab it before the monster ripped my insides apart. Grabbing my pistol I aimed back and fired five shots in the bastards head ending his life in the process.
I breathed heavily seeing him dead but I was in deep pain and I got bit by the beast. I shrugged it off and went into the bag with the medical stuff in it. I took out a Pain Pills and a Medkit and began to patch myself up with the bandages of the Medkits and took the Pain Pills to ease my wounds. I then got up and walked towards the window and leapt out landing on the ground that was about five inches.
My gun had no more ammo so I left it back in the pharmacy and walked over to see Vince, Michael, and Mary talking to one another. I could have sworn I heard my name in their conversation but I shrugged it off and approached them.
"Your medication." I grumbled.
They all turned to see me and Vince accepted the bag of supplies. I then began to rub my neck and I noticed that Mary was eyeing me.
"What happened to you?" She asked.
I started to get nervous and averted my eyes somewhere else.
"I-uh…got into a fight a Hunter but I was able to take him down." I told them without going into details.
They eyed me carefully and then Vince said something.
"Did you get bit?" He asked.
"No…and even if I did you wouldn't care." I lied with aggression.
They looked at me with stern looks and nodded. We continued walking around and began to look for a place to rest. We were lucky to find an apartment and it seemed abandoned yet guess who had to scout it out while everyone hanged in the lobby. I scouted each floor and came up on a few common infected along with two Smokers, Three Hunters, and a Boomer but they were dealt with a few slashes with my sword but when I fought the Boomer it broke.
"Telling me to search a fucking area filled with infected. At least there aren't anymore for me to handle." I sighed.
I leaned myself against a wall and my breathing was becoming rasp. I could feel the Pain Killers wearing off and the wounds from the Hunter attack was starting to take effect. I looked at my hand and saw that it was becoming pale and I realized that I was turning.
"Ugh…I can feel myself turning and the Pain Killers are wearing off. Could things get worst?" I muttered.
I soon shook my head to stop the dizziness and headed towards the room where the four of us will be resting at. I looked in the room and saw that it was ok except for a few messes here and there. Though the room was amazing so someone magnificent could have lived here so who.
"This is a nice room. I wonder who lived here." I asked myself.
I was then answered when I heard something behind me. It started out as a few whimpers but then it grew into low growls. I didn't want to turn around but I had no choice but to see what was behind me but I wish I didn't. I was now staring face to face with a Witch who seemed to own this residence and was now looking at her intruder.
Authors Note: Hmm a cliff hanger at the beginning…oh well guess you need to figure out what happens. So tell me your thoughts in the reviews if you like and thanks for reading chapter I.
