Coach's POV.
I watched as Ellis whispered something in Rochelle's ear and they both laughed. I chuckled. We walked through the carnival, Nick covering the back, me in the front and Ellis and Rochelle side by side in the middle. I heard Nick grumble from the back when they laughed.
"What's wrong with you then Nick?" I asked.
"They're distracted." Nick replied gruffly.
"So? They're just having fun!" I said smiling.
"In a zombie apocalypse? Coach, that's ridiculous!" Nick half-yelled.
"No it's not." I simply replied. Nick opened his mouth to say something, but gave up.
"Fine. Whatever. But when we all get killed cause I'm the only one alert, you can't blame me."
"Ok." I said. Nick snorted and turned back to his original position.
Ellis's POV.
As we walked through the carnival, I saw a stuffed animal. I went to pick it up. It was a giraffe. I walked over to Rochelle, and gave it to her. We were just in front of the safe room.
"Ah, thanks sweetie! I love it!" Rochelle smiled.
"You're welcome, Rochelle. It reminded me of ya, the way your eyes sparkle." I said happily. We walked inside the safe room.
"Great. The Tunnel of Love." Nick said, annoyed.
"Are you telling me ya never had a loved one before Nick?" Ellis asked teasingly. Nick stared him down, but Ellis stared right back, still grinning. Surprisingly, Nick looked away first. Nick walked away, muttering under his breath. He lay down in a sleeping bag and rolled over.
"Bit early for sleeping, isn't it Nick?" Coach asked, smiling.
"Whatever…" Nick replied.
"Don't pay any attention to him, he's just being… well, himself." Coach said to us.
"Don't worry. We weren't anyway." Rochelle replied. We all laughed, quietly so we wouldn't wake Nick up. I pulled some chocolate bars out of an army backpack we had found laying next to a dead body of a soldier. Rest in peace. I had thought respectively. I tossed a couple of King Size Kit Kats to Rochelle, and a couple of King Size Mars Bars to Coach.
"Awesome, thanks Ellis!" Rochelle said happily.
"Mm mm mm, best candy bar on the planet! Thanks Ellis!" Coach agreed.
"Ya welcome. Lemme jus' put this next ta Nick." I quietly walked over and placed two King Size Musketeers next to his sleeping form. Rochelle and Coach smiled at me.
"Hey Ellis?" Rochelle asked.
"Yea?" I replied.
"Why don't you tell us one of your Keith stories?" She asked sweetly. I was a bit taken aback at this. Usually they would interrupt my stories. I looked back and forth at their faces.
"For us?" She asked.
"Uh, ok!" I was excited. "Well, this one time mah buddy Keith an' I were in Italy, an' there was this crazy ski course tha' went on for, I dunno, one mile or sumthing. But anyway, the instructor was this borin' dude who ranted abou' safety an' junk. So Keith says, 'Man, this guy is borin', I'm leavin'!' And takes off down the ski course, yellin' excitedly. But there was this ramp tha' we thought was part of the snow, cause' when Keith saw it he started yellin' in terror. It was like, the perfect death drop! He tried ta turn back but he was goin' way too fast. He sped down there faster than pretty much anything! When he went off the actual jump, he went flyin' through the air, an' landed on this huge pile of snow and ice. His imprint was smashed into the pile he went flyin' so hard. He broke his arm an' part of his spine. It was funny man! He had ta go to the hospital but he was ok after a couple of weeks."
"Wow! I feel bad for interrupting your stories Ellis." Coach laughed.
"Yeah, me too! That was hilarious!" Rochelle agreed. I smiled happily.
"Ya don't have ta feel bad! If you guys hadn't interrupted me, we wouldn't have made it as far as we did!"
"Yeah." Coach chuckled. "I suppose it's true."
"It's getting dark. We should go to sleep." Rochelle said, a tired smile on her face.
"Yea, I suppose so." I said. We fell asleep in a few minutes.
Rochelle's POV.
Before I knew it, I was asleep. What felt like a few hours later, I felt a gentle hand shaking my shoulder.
"Ro? Rochelle?"
"Hmm?" I mumbled.
"Sorry for wakin' ya up. I wanted to show ya sumthing!" An excited Southern voice whispered. I grinned.
"K'. Let's do it." Ellis led me to the safe room door we had passed through, and opened it slowly and carefully, placing the bar by the door. He took my hand and showed me what was outside.
"Christ in a handbasket!" I whispered in awe. Carnival music played quietly and the horde was screeching from outside the fence. Lights were turned on.
"The fences are topped with barbed wire an' it's electrified when it's turned on so all ah had ta do was throw a couple of pipe bombs through the wide open fence an' then close it!" Ellis said happily. I hugged him.
"Thanks Ellis!"
"Ya welcome!" We walked towards the lights and sounds.
"Aw man, that's the Screamin' Oak! You wanna ride it?" Ellis become said excitedly.
"Sure!" I replied. "But Ellis?"
"Hmm?"
"Just in case, did you bring any guns or med-kits?"
"Haha, course' ah did!" I felt a wave of relief pass over me. I mean, what if one of us did become injured?
We climbed onto the ride, and Ellis reached over and pressed the button to start it. The coaster started going up slowly. It made a loud creaking sound. The horde seemed to screech louder. Uh-oh… Suddenly the ride shot down a drop. I hadn't noticed the ride escalating upwards.
"WHOO-HOO!" Ellis yelled.
"Woah!" I yelped. I was actually having fun. However, when I saw what was right in front of the coaster a ways ahead, I paled.
"Uh, Ellis?" I said, a little freaked out.
"Yea- Oh SHIZ!" The crying became louder as we rounded the corner. It turned into growls. There was a thump as we ran over the Witch.
"AHHHHHHH!" As the coaster kept going, the Witch chased us, arms outstretched, claws just waiting to tear into our flesh.
"CRAP!" Ellis yelled, as he pulled out a shotgun.
"Here!" He passed an M-16 to me. We opened fire on the Witch. With one final screech she fell, bullet wounds allowing blood to flow through them.
"That was close, huh Rochelle?"
"…"
"Rochelle?"
I pointed towards the horde climbing up and over the fence. They were furious and howling like banshees. Accompanying those howls of fury were the sound of cars being thrown, with roars and bellows.
"Run?" I asked.
"Run." He replied. We started running to the safe room at the end of the coaster. The roaring of the horde and the Tank became closer. Suddenly Ellis let out a strangled yell. I turned around and gasped. A chunk of concrete was practically covering Ellis. He let out a groan from under the concrete. Scarlet blood started pooling out from under the concrete.
"OhGodOhGodOhGod…" I whispered. To make matters worse, the Tank and the horde were just round the corner.
"ROAR!"
I tried hauling the concrete the concrete off Ellis but the horde came racing at me.
'BANG-BANG-BANG-BANG-!'
'Beep, beep, beep b-b-beep! BANG!' Explosions and sounds of gunfire was the last thing I remembered before passing out.
