David shot again and again and again until his clip clicked dry.

Four bodies in a loose circle were ringed around him and Amberley.

"Who the hell are these guys!" She asked David. Her heart was beating rapidly and her shoulder had been cut open by one of their axes.

David kicked one as he reloaded and heard him groan.

"I dont know, but they attacked us, so lets kill them."

He shot the man in the face.

The bodies that surrounded them in the deep forest were painted head to toe in white and red chalk.

They only wore a small loin cloth that barley covered them properly.

They threw rocks at you, stabbed you with spears, and tried to bite you!

"You said it Jew." Amberley replied happily and slammed a fresh clip into her Glock 19.

They sprinted foward as the sounds of more tribals came their way.

Their pursuers made the most awkward sounds which sounded like groaning but also the excited whoops and yells in a chittering language.

David took a knee and dropped one of the closer ones with a shot to the face then continued his run.

"Tribals!" He yelled over the chitterng.

Amberley looked at him while they were running.

"What!!?!?"

David shot backwards randomly.

"Lets call them Tribals!"

Amberley dived tackled one of the smaller ones out of her way that had dropped down from the tree.

"Well gee! Someone has imagination!" She replied in a bitchey tone.

David chucked a throwing knife into one that was readying a spear.

"You think of a better name!" David challenged before he shot another one in the chest

Amberley gunned down a few more which had been trying to cut them off.

"Well your the damn Jew, your supposed to be smart!"

David growled.

"Shut it white trash !"

"Terroist!"

"War monger!"

The Tribals watched as these two fought eachother and themselves at the same time with a great deal of confusion.

"You know what!" David hissed as he primed a flashbang.

"What?" Amberley yelled as she kicked away another one and found herself back to back with him firing away at the oncoming Tribals.

"Your such a bitch, shield your eyes."

He threw it.

--

Talon heard a screams and a series of gunshots.

"Oh hell, oh hell, oh hell!" He ran towards the direction of the screaming.

He sprinted past a post office and scrambled over sandbags and torn down razor wire.

He tackled the church door open and saw Alina struggling with another girl that was dressed in a fadded white nightgown.

Before he could run to her aid something to his left lunged at him.

Talon rolled out of the backwards towards Alina and fired one handed while shoving the thing of Alina with all his might.

The girl that was attacking his charge screamed even louder and got to her feet, right before Talon unloaded his clip on her she dived into the floor breaking it and high pitched screaming filled the air. It glanced at him with its red eyes as he reloaded and giggled a little then resumed her screaming.

"What was that...what was that.." Alina kept muttering.

Talon kicked her.

"Get up! Now!" He grabbed her harshly and yanked her to her feet.

Talon saw the downed BlackWatch soldier and quickly grabbed his gun and ripped off his ammo vest.

Groaning finally replied to the screams of the girl and people started to crawl out of the whole made in the ground.

Talon, still holding Alina sprinted foward and ran out the door.

More of the things were appearing, all moving slow, wincing at the sunlight.

Talon figured he had a few seconds to get Alina back up to speed.

She was still in shock.

"Hey, hey look at me" Talon ordered.

"It bit me...it frikking bit me." She showed him her arm, a chunk of her skin was gone.

Talon almost froze.

Alina tried to look at her arm, which was bleeding rapidly.

Talon grabbed her head and made her face him.

"We can worry later ok? If you dont relax and follow me we are both dead. I wont leave without you."

Alina looked at him quietly, her muttering stopped.

"But..."

Talon, flinching at his own softness, got up and discarded the empty clip in the M4 he had retrived.

"I said now!" He ordered and Alina jumped up to her feet and looked for her gun.

"I...I lost my..."

Talon tapped his 1911 on his hip holster.

He slipped on the vest and reloaded his newly found weapon.

The people that had walked out of the buildings and dark corners weren't people anymore.

They all moved in a twitchy inhuman manner, the sun light seemed to make them flinch and moan, and their skin was decayed.

Talon removed the broken flashlight and red dot scope and reverted to the iron sights.

Three bodies hit the floor as he advanced.

Alina followed close behind. She felt sick, her left arm numb.

Everything was hurting for her, the screaming of that girl still pounding in her head, the weight of her weapon, the chatter of Talon's gun.

She watched as he shot them all center mass and they fell to the floor.

Everything felt distant, everything got smaller.

She passed out.

--

Talon took back his handgun and slung his rifle.

He had to get Alina treated. He knew all to well what he was killing right now.

Talon shivered as he remembered Africa.... The screaming, The BlackWatch, tanks, Agents.......The Infected.

He shot them methodically.

He had been trained to deal with every kind of B.O.W imaginable. The fast ones, the slow ones, the dog ones, the enourmous bee ones.

These were the Rage Strain Beta. Extremley sensitive to light but still able to walk in it.

But they sacrifice the quick infection for that ability, the trade off for that also was they lasted longer than 28 days...

He had twenty-eight hours to cure Alina, which he knew he was capable of, but he estimated that he had only a thirty percent chance of getting out of town alive with her weighing him down.

More infected limped out of the buildings and started to cut off his original exit plan.

He half jogged up a metal ramp and kicked it down to prevent the infected from getting up the buidling he had taken refugee on.

He set down Alina and opened his backpack. He then took out a small black kit.

--

Alina woke up with aa sharp breath of air, then felt blood gurgle up her mouth.

She rolled over to the side of the buidling and vomitted it out.

She wiped her mouth again coughing, then felt her stomach shove up more blood.

More vomit.

More blood.

Finally it stopped and Alina lay down looking up at the blue sky.

She looked to her left and saw Talon checking clips.

"Your infected with an advanced form of Rage, I injected you with an all-purpose BOA chemical that clears your system of this infection."

Alina spat blood on the ground.

"How long will it take."

"Fourty-eight hours, if you dont stop by then I shoot you." He said casaully and sat by her.

The infected had gathered in a group below them, raising their hands violently at the pair of stranded kids.
