Nightmare on Rainy Street.
*I do not own any of these characters or materials.
It was early Monday morning, the Hills were getting ready for the day. "Mornin' Peg Leg." Hank said as he walked in. "Good morning Hank." She said. Bobby came in the kitchen. "Do we have anything with sugar in it?" Bobby said. "Nope only oatmeal." Peggy retorted. "Bobby shouldn't you be getting ready for school?" Asked Hank. "School is closed today, Connie told me!" Bobby said happily. "Well I'm gonna go to work, Melinda and Maria both called in sick, so it looks like I'm working tank wipe AND sales today." Hank said as he grabbed a cup of coffee. "Well I'm going down to the Mega Lo Mart to try out that new toilet paper!" Bobby said happily. "That boy ain't right." Hank grumbled as he walked to his truck. "On the road again, I just can't wait to- BWAH!" Hank yelled as he passed a car crash. Officers Brown and Soto stood over his old barber, Jack, who had been hogtied with tape over his mouth. "Soto to main base we have another one apprehended after car accident, send the van." Hank sped onward, but was stopped by a police checkpoint, where there were police officers and Texas Rangers alike. Hank heard a voice say, "I'm sorry sir, we're going to have to strip search you." Hank was mortified to see the cop was the same lady cop who had hit on him before. "Why in the hell would you do that for?" Hank asked uncomfortably. To his relive, one of the Rangers wearing a badge that read: "Jeffrey D. Boomhauer walked up and said, "Dang 'ol Hank man, You been bitten. Or scratched man?" He said with his unmistakable accent. "No I haven't." Hank said with an air of confusion. "How do you except us to believe that sir?" Asked another ranger. Boomhauer Turned to him and said. "Dang 'ol Hank man, He give you his dang 'ol word man, it true." "Well if Jeff trust you, I suppose it's good enough for the rest of us." One of Boomhauer's underlings said as he waved him on by. Hank pulled up to Strickland, Finding the place deserted. "What in the hell is going on here?" Hank wondered as he opened the door. BLAM! A gunshot flew right by his head as a frantic looking Buck Strickland held a 30-06 Rifle. "Oh sorry Old Top, didn't know that was you." Buck said. "WHAT IN THE HELL IS HAPPENING HERE?" Hank demanded to know. "Ain't you seen the news old top? Me and Donna are gonna ride out the apocalypse here. If you need to you can take as many five gallon tanks as you need." Buck said. Hank walked out with four five gallon tanks. At dinner Peggy said. "Have any of you seen the news lately, about that new virus going around?" "Nope, the news is a dismal place Peggy." Hank replied. "Yep, and in my opinion, a lot of people watch the news" Peggy said. Hank sighed. "So how was your day Bobby?" Hank asked. "Mega Lo Mart was all out of toilet paper, well except the sandpaper stuff. And when I went to Whataburger, I saw Mr. Dauterive, The ketchup machine broke, and ruined his hotdogs, but he seemed cool with it." Bobby said. "I heard from Nancy that Reverend Stroup is holding some kind of emergency meeting." Peggy said. "Nobody could really make it though, the streets are blocked off. Karen Stroup walked outside of the church sad, though understanding that no one was able to make it, she began to light a cigarette, until she saw a young man walking toward her. "Cane! Finally decided to convert, eh?" She got no response. "Cane?" The man was definitely Cane Skretteburg. "He must be wearing his earbuds." She thought. She walked over to talk to him when he grabbed her and bit her on the arm. She noticed Cane's eyes were not human looking, but just cloudy. She saw several similar people filing in behind him, a tall, black man wearing a suit who she knew from church, a redneck with a horseshoe moustache and several others, all with those cloudy eyes. She fell to the ground and got up a few minutes later. At the Hill house Hank and Peggy slept peacefully until they were woken by Bobby yelling: "DAD!" and Ladybird barking. Hank grabbed a golf club, Peggy a .22 revolver. They rushed into his room, where they found him aiming his Ruger 10/22 on a now zombified, Melinda unable to pull the trigger. Hank pulled him back as Peggy shot Melinda. Looking out the window Hank saw Heck Dorlan shoot an undead soldier. Hank and Peggy rushed out to help clear rainy street. Bobby, not wanting to be left alone, rushed out too. Rifle in hand. John Redcorn attacked with a hatchet, Heck with a .357 revolver, Dale was outside with a handgun while Joseph and Nancy hid inside, Lucky was shooting left and right with a Mossberg Shockwave while Luanne stood on the roof holding Gracie. Even Kahn was fighting. John Redcorn was swarmed and killed, Dale was bitten on his right arm and was seen running into Hank's garage, and Bill was totally absent. "Peggy go and give the bad news to Nancy, about both of them I'm gonna go check on Bill." Hank said. Peggy nodded in agreement, and Hank walked into Bill's house. And opened his bedroom door. Inside he saw Bill laying on the bed, A handgun in his hand and blood around his mouth. Hank cried and heard a grumbling as Bill got, a Whataburger wrapper fell from his chest and he wiped the "blood" of his mouth. Hank remembered the story that Bobby told him about Bill's food and begun to laugh. "Morning all ready?" Bill yawned.
