Living a nightmare

The Infection

"Three weeks ago, man, life was sweet, so simple and fun but then a couple of weeks ago weird shit hit the news, a new strain of virus, Swine Flu came, it evolved and changed people, it killed them and changed them, some changed when they were still alive, it varied from person to person from different kinds of bite wounds but once you were dead...you are one of them. The situation got completely out of control, not even the Armies of the world could do anything to save us, it spread from city to city like wildfire, the infection wasn't airborne but could transport via saliva, blood, sexual contact etc and now two weeks later the world has gone to hell, there are only five of us alive, me, Hilary, a Russian called Tala, my best friend Ray and his lover Tom, we found weapons and now we're using them...were gonna cure this infection one bullet at a time...".

The alley was littered with spent shell casings and bodies.
It was late at night.
"Reloading" Tom called.
The brunette replaced six of the ten rounds into his auto shotgun.
Tom brushed a hand through his shoulder length brown hair.
His black jacket had drops of blood on it.
So did his navy blue trousers.
They all did.
Tokyo looked different now.
They hadn't seen another human in a week.
It was them and a shit load of Zombies.
"We have to get out of here" Hilary said again.
"I heard there was an evac zone at the hospital" Tom said.
"You saw the hospital yourself, its over run with them" Tala pointed out.
"Maybe there's a radio there or something?" Ray wondered.
"We wont know until we try" Hilary said.
Tala nodded.
"Yeah that's a good plan...the hospital."
Tala adjusted the hold on his AK-47.
"Anyone know the way?"
"I do" Tom said.
"Okay...Take point...I'll take rear" Tala said.

They left the alley and ventured onto the main street.
It was littered with bodies, newspapers, litter and cars.
It was completely empty apart from wandering corpses.
Lee lifted his sniper rifle and looked through the zoom.
He took out a few and moved on.
Hilary kept her handguns raised.
Two lunged out at the darkness.
Tom got the left with his shotgun, Ray the right with his Sub-machine gun.
"Team work!" Tom said.
Ray nodded.
"Let's go" the Neko said.
Tom went on, Ray behind, Lee, Hilary and Tala.

Another dark high street and more corpses.
They heard the queasy sounds of a Boomer.
This was a large over sized fat Zombie, when it threw up on you it attracts the hordes.
It appeared and exploded when Lee took it out.

"SMOKER!" Hilary cried.
It stuck its long tongue out and constricted Tom.
Pulling him in closer and closer.
Luckily Ray took it out and went to help his lover.
Ray pulled him to his feet.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, thanks."
"How far to the hospital?"
"With our progress give it...half an hour?"
"SHIT" Tala said.
"We can't last that long, our reserves are running LOW."
"Well let's get moving and stop fighting boys" Hilary said.
She hugged Tala and kissed her boyfriend.
"Calm down kay?"
"I can't help it."
"I know...I know..."
She brushed the right side of his face as she spoke.
"Take a deep breath" she instructed.
It was interrupted by Lee's rifle and Ray.
"Company" Tom said firing off taking two down.
"BOOM head shot!" Lee said as a Zombie's head exploded.
"You're enjoying this aren't you?" Ray asked when the attacks died down.
"Just think like you're doing them a favor."
"We are, who would want to walk around like a Zombie?" Tom is right, who would want to be a Zombie?

A loud howling echoed through the street.
"Hunter" Ray said scanning the horizon for any signs of movement.
A Hunter was basically a Zombie Neko-Jin, the clothes, if it wore any, had the sleeves taped to the skin to prevent drag on the arms and legs.
It could leap great distances and heights.

It would leap onto its victim and rip it to shreds.

Out of nowhere it leaped into the group and pinned Tom.
It took out a chunk of skin with its teeth below his left arm.
Then it fell dead.
Ray had snapped its neck and placed a bullet through its brain.
Tom was drawing in quick breaths.
Blood poured from the open wound.
"MEDIC!"

Hilary patched the wound up and gave an injection of morphine.
"AAAHHH the BURN!" Tom said in horror.
He clenched his teeth together and squeezed his eyes shut.
Ray knelt down in front of Tom and held his frail body up with his left arm.
Tears streamed from Ray's eyes.
"Tom, hang in there...please...don't die."
"Ray...Ray...I love you....please...take....take care of everything."
Ray nodded.
"Ray" Tala warned, his eyes too were sad.
Ray whimpered.
He knew what must be done.
"If you truly love him you'll do it."
"I do love him" Ray whispered.
"I can't."
"Fine...I will."
"NO TALA" Lee pushed down Tala's gun, it fired into the walkway.
Ray reached down and kissed him on his now cold sweating forehead.
Tom gave Ray a quick weak kiss on his left cheek.
Ray pulled his sidearm out from the gun belt around his waist.
He held it in his right arm and flipped off the safety.
He put the end of the chamber to the left side of Tom's head.
Tom was crying.
"I love you Ray, I always will."
"I love you too Tom."
BANG.
Tom's brains exploded from the right side of his head and the rest of his skull pulled his body to the right and fell from Ray's grip.
Ray dropped the gun and broke down into a fit of tears.
Lee pulled him up and hugged him.
"You did him a favor" Lee assured him.
"T...th....there's m...more" Ray managed to speak.
"What?" Lee asked.
"You know we were together right?"
Lee nodded.
"I might as well show you."
He backed away from the lion and pulled his shirt up.
There was a bump.
Lee stared at Ray in shock.
"You're...Pregnant?" he asked and Ray nodded.
"Wait, wait, wait wait, I thought only girls got pregnant!" Tala said confused.
"Its not the same for our kind...well almost, in our bodies is a gene that allows any of us, male or female to have babies, in some of us guys its dormant but there is one or two that has this ability" Lee explained.
"How far into it?" Hilary asked.
"One month."
"Our gestation period is only five months" Lee said.
"I'm not fighting just for me...I'm fighting for my family."
"Why didn't you tell us?" Tala asked.
"We didn't want to cause anymore panic and worry."
"Okay...we get to the hospital, we keep Ray shielded against them...his family cannot die, I wont let it."
"Thanks Tala" Ray said giving a weak smile.
A screeching noise came from the distance.
"The Horde is coming" Tala said.
"We need to move now...the sewer!"
Ray took out Tom's Beyblade, launcher and rip chord out of his pocket before leaving, he also picked up his handgun and Tom's shotgun.
There was a manhole cover which they opened and climbed in.
Ray had his last look at the one who stole his heart.
