Chapter Two: Marshall Lee
Disclaimer: I do not own Adventure Time! I only own the plot!
We've all known about the walking corpse disease, we just didn't want to believe it. There have only been so many areas that have been affected; now our area has been included. There's a special army that is solely at war against the zombies, and I'm going to join them, as soon as I get passed the zombies that is. Luckily I have my axe guitar on me, and the axe isn't just for show, but unfortunately it is dull and if it were sharper, my life would be much easier at the moment.
Left!
Right!
Righ-Left!
I vigorously swing my bass left and right decapitating zombies as I make my way towards my ticket to getting recruited. I see others fighting-a group of soldiers. I shovel my through the walking dead, until I find myself at the train station.
I lean my head against the wall of the train we've been on. Anyone who survived the attack had volunteered to fight, while other soldiers come to fight in this area this small group escorts us to their closest base, which was still a good five hours away.
"LISTEN UP!" I look up to see a guy with blonde hair and blue eyes standing above the crowd.
"My name is Finn! I am one of five leaders of the base we are going to! Once we get there, we are going to the training vicinity where each of the leaders including myself and my sister are going to get groups of you and train you to the bone! Do not take us lightly! There is a reason that there aren't many leaders!"
Finn has to shout for everyone to listen, whatever, I'm ready to kick zombie butt any day. My body begins to relax as I nod off into a swift slumber to pass the time.
"Hey dude, train rides 'over." The voice belongs to that dude who was talking about the base-Finn.
"'Bout time" I get up and follow him, Finn's probably around my age, eighteen or nineteen years old. He's wearing a black leather jacket with two blue stripes on each arm; I think two stripes indicate you're captain. The guy is loaded with weapons, so I can't tell how big he actually is. When I look around to inspect the other soldiers, I don't notice much difference, everyone kind of blends with dark colored clothing and heavy weaponry. Right now I'm just wearing my red plaid shirt, blue jeans, and red converses. Everyone stops; I didn't even notice how long we've been walking.
I join the large line of recruits and Finn joins the lined up captains. My eyes roam across them, and then my eyes stop. Wow.
She steps up.
"My name is Fionna, I am one of the highest ranked soldiers of all the bases and I have been told to explain the current situation at hand-or at least the one that matters to you newbs at the moment."
She must be Finn's sister…she's beautiful.
"While scientists have been trying to find a way to stop the disease, we've been fighting off the zombies to at least slow the spread, hence why there have only been so many areas that have been caught up with zombie attacks.
"We are going to split you guys up into groups and assign the groups to one of us and we're going to train you the basics all night. Then, you're going to return the next few nights; we don't have time to be dilly dallying, you need to be prepared to fight; we are constantly sent back and forth into battle and rest at bases when need be.
"I just returned from an invasion and recovered from an injury, I'm going to train you, then you guys and I are going to be sent out to different areas for battle ; this is how life will be for as long as it is necessary, get used to it."
She has long golden blonde hair that's tied back, she has piercing sapphire eyes, a soft angelic looking face, but then she's clad with swords, throwing daggers, guns, and more. She looks like she just stepped straight out of a video game, well so does everybody, but-
"Everyone straighten out!"
They gave us a number between one and five to separate us. I went to my assigned group and had to suppress a chuckle when I noticed Fionna as my training captain.
This is going to be fun.
Everyone moans and groans due to soreness from training as we walk back to our assigned dorms, we threw daggers, wielded swords, shot guns, ran, lifted weights, and we fought a lot. I of course decided to challenge Fionna calling her a "good little girl" and she practically beat me to a pulp after whole heartedly accepting my challenge. I kept up fairly well, I even got a few hits in, but-well she is a leader. But she's a pretty cool chic, she admitted that I some guts and said she'd take me as her fighting buddy any day. We follow some soldiers clad in dark clothing and hundreds of pounds of weaponry to the dorms; it seems like the base is all made of steel, the place can use some cleaning, but I guess this is home-for now.
