Here is chapter 4 and this is going to be a little different than the other ones, this is going to be told from Blake's perspective. This will be for this chapter only, the rest will be from Lucas's perspective unless the book would seem better if it was from someone else's perspective, anyway, Enjoy
Seth being the dumb ass he is, stumble into Lucas when he wasn't looking. "OH SHIT!" before he really fell, I dropped my sword to grab Lucas's hand. "Mind..helping Seth" He dropped his gun and went over to the other side and grabbed Lucas's other hand and pulled Lucas up. "Watch were your going damn it!" I was sure Lucas was about to punch Seth in the face, I didn't want to see them fight...well Seth getting an ass kicking, as funny as it might be, we have worse stuff to deal with... like starvation. " Luke, go back up the truck while Seth and I search for supplies" He really wanted to beat Seth to blood pulp, I could just see the anger in his eye's. "...fine" with that he walked off. Once he was out of the building I turned to Seth and said " You can thank me later" " for what?" was he still the same dumb ass when we were in high school, "saving you from an ass kicking" " Yeah, like he can do that" yep, he still was. "Seth... you are still the same height when you were in high school, you have a fucked up knee, Lucas... he has been through a lot, stuff that has most likely made him stronger... plus he is almost 2 feet taller than you" he shrugged and walked into the kitchen, he is still stubborn bitch,
I followed him and picked up a box and put any food I found in it, Seth had the same idea, I could only find three bags of Doritos, 2 warm bottle's of water, and a can of beans. " Your plan is starting to become a bust, we haven't gotten much food" I said " you have any better idea" "well I have been living on my own for four years and I have been doing better back than now" I said. " Oh shit, guy's, Zach jut said there are bandits at the front of the school, about 15 of them" "Crap, come on Seth". We grabbed the food and ran towards the truck, throwing the food in the bed of the truck, and got in the backseat as Lucas got in the drivers side and turned the truck on. As the truck roared to life, a bandit made his way to the back of the school and spotted us, he yelled "hey I found someone over here" when I turned around, he was lifting up his gun to fire at us when a bullet went through his head, most likely from Zach. " GO GO GO GO GO!" I screamed. Lucas stepped on the gas, and at the right time too, the rest of the bandits came to the end of the school and opened fire, * CRASH* the back window had shattered.
" OH HELL NO! NOT THE TRUCK!" Lucas screamed. Seth than picked up his AK-47 and started firing back at the bandits. " they are making their way to their cars" I said, "than hang on, I am taking a short cut" Lucas said. When I looked forward, he turn the truck towards the baseball field. " Hang on" Lucas said. He than went smashing through the fence, making his way to Zach. Zach was already down the tower and in the parking lot of the baseball field. Lucas reached over and opened the door, saying " get in, get in!" Zach jumped in and said " We've got company, the bandits are closing in" he said as Lucas floored it. I looked back to see that the bandits had managed to catch up. They rolled down their windows and aimed at us. " DUCK!" I screamed as I...well ducked from the bullets, once they had to reload, Seth popped up and fired at the driver,hitting the driver in the head, splattering blood flying across the windshield, sending the SUV swerving and going into a ditch. When the second SUV came by Seth's gun clicked, telling us that he is out of ammo. " I will handle this" I said. I took one of my ninja star and took aim at the tire, holding my breath. It was like it was in slow motion when I threw it, it popped the tire and cause the car to spin and hit the car behind it, making it flip a few time's, they seem to stumble out of the cars, dazed. I threw three more ninja stars at their heads, hitting them dead center in the head so they couldn't tell their friend what we were driving. "Damn, u have good aim to hit them in the head, all the way from here" Seth said " lets head back to pepper ridge, we may want to lay low" Zach said.
"You may be right, better to be safe than sorry" Lucas replied. Turning to look outside, I looked up to the sky, being a light red color. " I remember when it wasn't this crazy, were we had to worry about getting good grades, not worrying about if you are going to live through the day and night, when we had food provided for us, not having to risk are lives just to find it, what happened to the good old day's" everyone seemed depressed when I got done talking, are lives used to be so much better before the outbreak started. "... god damn ass hole's... breaking my window and what not" everyone started to snicker at Lucas, I think he really liked his dad's truck. I went back to looking outside of the window when I noticed that the truck was slowing down. " Uh..why are slowing down" I said turning to Lucas, he looked down. " Uh well shit. We are running out of gas" he said. He took the truck as far as it can go till it just stopped dead in the middle of the road. "you didn't tell that it was low on gas you dumb ass" he said, looking at Zach. "See, this is why I like Fords" Zach replied. " Oh shut the fuck up and get out" Lucas said as he opened the door. "Well there is a gas station that I used to get gas for the intrepid about a mile away". I didn't know what happened to that car, no wonder Luke and Zach were debating who got to drive the truck. " what happened to the intrepid" I asked. "Well a tank hit it with a giant cinder block, than though it was the best throwing object, so I had to blow it up or we would most likely be crushed or dead" Lucas said.
Well that says everything, I shook my head in disbelief, that car was old, it was amazing how it was still running in highschool. "so who is going to the gas station" Zach said. "I'll guess I will" Luke and I said at the same time. " well I think it would be the best thing to do because i'm the sniper and Seth is still crippled" Zach said. "yeah. No thanks to you" Seth said. I don't think I want to know. "you guys are more of close quarters combat" Zach said. " you guys guard the truck, we will back...whenever" Lucas said. With that, we started to walk, once we got about half a mile away from the gas station, I asked. "so, have you talked to your parents lately" "nope, you?" "no" then we heard coughing. "there is a smoker around he-" Lucas got cut off when a smoker grabbed him and pulled him backwards. "S-S-SHIT" pulling out my sword, I ran towards Lucas and cut the tongue of the smoker. Lucas fell backwards on his back and unraveled the tongue from his body and got up and pulled his shotgun, he shot the smoker in the head, making it fall down, twitching. " Uh-oh, we've got company" the shotgun blast alerted the zombies in the area. "Run!" I screamed. Lucas's phone started to ring. "What the hell is going on, we heard gunfire" Zach said. "I would get in the car, zombies are chasing us, we are going to find a place to hold out" he than hung up. "there, into the station" he said. He started to run even faster, than he crashed through the window. Doing a barrel role once he hit the ground.
" come on, lets kill the gas and leave" he grabbed two gas tanks and started to run outside when the zombies got closer to the station. "Shit go back" Lucas said, stumbling backwards to the gas station. Right as I turned around, something jumped on my back, pulling towards all the zombies, than I realized what it was. "Get this jockey off my back" I yelled to Lucas. He turned around and pulled out his pistol and shot off two rounds. The lifeless corpse just seemed to peel his off my head and fell down to the ground. Lucas was waving to me to hurry up and get inside, track practice don't fail me now. Sprinting as fast as I could, I believe I could out run a witch. I couldn't slow down in time, so I had to jump through the open window. Once I got up, I asked Lucas " do you think you can run from here to the truck, without stopping, once we get the gas" I probably shouldn't have said anything " its be how long since we have seen each other" " uh six years ago"
`" so you think that in that time I wouldn't have gotten fit" I asked this because he wasn't the most fit kid and the fastest friend I knew... and he kind of had a short fuse. " Just get the gas, I'll distract the zombie's" "with what" "this" he said as he threw a pipe bomb up and down. Lucas than went outside and said " Hey zombies, I got a present for yeah" taking off in the opposite direction. While he was busy, I picked the gas tanks and went to the pumps, when I got done, Lucas came by and said " Ready" " yeah" he clicked the button and said " Fire in the hole", " lets go" we didn't need to ran as fast as we could till about a half a mile away, the zombies founds us again, but we weren't alone this time, I saw the glare from Zach sniper scope, he was a really good shot, he was sending bullet's zipping by us, dropping zombies, one by one. " You brought some friend's" Zach said. " Just cover us while we fill the truck". Lucas went first so he can start the truck to get out of here.
Once I got done,I go in and yelled to Zach and Seth " Come on, lets go". Lucas turned the key and turned the key as the two got in. "Hang on, this is going to get bumpy" Lucas said. *THUMP * *THUMP * *THUMP * * THUMP *THUMP *. So much for that zombie horde. Luckily we had enough gas to get back to the gas station, Lucas thought it would be smart to fill truck up, while he did that, the rest of us got food. " Why didn't you grab some stuff while you were here" Zach said. " sorry we are being chased by a hundred zombie's" I said. " But you guy's were right by Wendy's" I shook my head. "you know what, this place has more food here than in the two school's combined" Zach said. " OK, you guy's come up with a idea than if you hate this one so bad" Seth said seeming irritated. "OK, the truck is full, let's go" Lucas said. Instead of taking all the food out, we just took the box's we had and put the food in their and into the bed. "everyone ready" Lucas said. "yep". With that, we took off towards home.
