Sorry for the wait, but I hope this makes up for it. It's Chapter 7!
Chapter 7: Let's Hit the Road
Hannah's P.O.V
I stabbed another zombie through the back of the head, killing him silently before letting his body fall to the ground. As soon everyone was up we got started on our way. Aaron, Bill, Nick, and I headed out while the other six stayed behind to get ready to leave.
First step: Find a working vehicle
"Aaron, can you go up and check the way ahead of us?" I turned to Aaron, who was behind me while holding onto the rifle.
Aaron nodded and started and entered the back door of the building they were behind in the ally. Soon enough he was on the roof and scanning the area for anything unusual.
{All clear by the looks of it but let's move with caution.} Aaron answered before coming back down.
I turned to the others. "Alright, it looks like we have a clear pathway, but let's stay alert."
Everyone nodded and followed me as I lead them towards the parked Hummer H1. Aaron looked around, secretly sniffing the area to check his Hunter senses for anything dangerous. Nick got to the car first and looked inside.
"Shit, it's locked." He hissed quietly.
I came forward. "Well, we have two options: break the window and possibly attract a horde or find the keys."
"Either way, here they come." Bill stated as the sounds of the horde came closer to us.
Aaron growled. "I'll go up top and give you cover from there."
I looked at him with a surprised look on my face, since when did he learn to talk again? Nick and Bill didn't pay attention as the zombies got closer to us.
Author's P.O.V
Aaron quickly ran over to the nearest building to get a high view of the horde while Hannah, Nick, and Bill started to load full clips of ammo on them. Aaron perched himself in a good position and fired all that he could shoot.
"Reloading, cover me!" Nick shouted.
Hannah turned around and saw a zombie coming from behind him. "Look out, Nick!" She pulled out a throwing knife and hit the zombie right in the forehead.
"Thanks." Nick gave a small nod of appreciation.
Hannah smiled but something shinny glared on the ground, catching her eyes. The keys! She quickly picked them up and moved towards the Hummer H1's door. Unlocking the door, she hopped in and put the key in and tried to get the engine to turn over. However, it wasn't starting.
"Shit! Keep me covered! I'm gonna pop the hood!" She explained to Nick and Bill while she got out of the car and opened the hood of it.
Aaron shot another zombie down before stopping. His senses were sensing that something big was coming. Tank! He quickly talked to Hannah through their connection.
{Hannah, a Tank is approaching and fast!} He warned her.
Hannah growled. {Great, just what we needed, a goddamn Tank.}
The ground started to tremble as the sound of an outraged Tank approached them. Infected started flying and one car landed topside near them. Bill and Nick turned just in time to see the Tank turn the corner and charge right at them.
"Hannah, I think now would be a good time to get going." Bill stated as he started to shoot at the Tank.
Hannah found a loose cable and started to hook it to the car's battery. "Give me a minute."
"How about 5 seconds?" Nick asked as he and Bill hopped into the car.
Hannah finally hooked the cable and shut the hood before hopping in the driver's seat. "Hold on, boys!" She backed the car up just before the Tank could ram them and turned around to head for the building to pick up Aaron. "Nick, take the wheel!"
"What? What are doing?" Nick asked as he slid from the passenger seat to the driver seat as she climbed out of the window and onto the roof of the car.
Aaron was already on the fire escape, waiting for them. When he saw them come towards him, he jumped and landed on the roof with Hannah's help.
{Can this thing go any faster?} He questioned.
Hannah sighed. "I don't think that's the least of our worries." She pointed to the Tank following them.
{That's why I picked this up.} He handed her a Molotov.
Hannah smirked, but frowned. "He too close though, we can easily blow him up with all of us as well."
"Hannah, Aaron, you better be doing something or else we'll be leading a full built Tank back to the safe house!" Nick's voice shouted.
Hannah saw a small pole hanging from a building and an idea came to her head. "I have a plan, drive closer to that building!"
The car moved closer and Hannah moved closer to the edge, but a hand stopped her. She turned around and came face to face with Aaron.
{What are you doing?} Aaron asked her.
Hannah mentioned her head towards the metal pole. "I'm saving our asses from that Tank."
{What? You'll kill yourself!} Aaron exclaimed.
Hannah placed a finger over his mouth. "I know what I'm doing. If I can jump out of helicopters and planes, I'm sure I can jump of a moving vehicle."
{But-} Aaron started, but he was silenced once again when Hannah's lips met his cheek. She then pulled away, him wearing a shock expression.
She smiled. "I'll be fine." She then stood up and jumped off the vehicle while grabbing the metal pole in time. "Hey! Over here you big, oversize motherfucker!" She called out to the Tank.
The Tank instantly turned its attention on her just as she dropped to the ground. Taking the Molotov, she threw it at him and watched as he burst into flames. However, when he charged at her, Hannah was forced to run clear from him as fast as possible. She took out her pistols and shot a few infected out of the way just as she ran clear onto another street. Turning around, she shot the Tank a few times before turning back around to keep going the other way.
Aaron's P.O.V
I was shocked down to the core, like my body didn't have control of its self anymore. Hannah just kissed me. Does that mean she likes me? Does it mean that we are more than friends? What does it mean?
"Aaron, get your ass in here for the last time!" Nick yelled at me.
I climbed in through the passenger window and sat down in the seat. {Hannah, can you hear me?}
{Yeah, but I'm sort of busy right now.} She grunted in pain.
I started to worry, what if she doesn't come back alive? {Are you hurt?}
{Yes, but I'll be fine. Get back to the others and load the car, I'll get back to you as soon as possible.} Hannah replied.
Hannah's P.O.V
Damn Tank! Fucker punched me through a wooden door into a warehouse. Rubbing my head, I sat up and took in my surroundings. The Tank was getting closer and I was sure it wasn't long till he finally died. However, I still have to get back to the others.
I felt the wall till I found a light switch and flipped it on. The warehouse contained of empty boxes and dusty shelves. But, there was something under a tarp in the middle of the room. Walking over to it, I pulled the tarp off while ignoring the pain in my side. I smirked at the blue colored Suzuki Boulevard M109R that I found underneath it.
I saw the keys were attached to a skull keychain on the handlebar and quickly grabbed them. Picking up a black, full face helmet, I slipped it on my head and hopped onto the motorcycle and turned the engine over just as the Tank burst through the wall. I put the medal to the pedal and sped out of their and towards the mall. The Tank would die, but I have a group to get back to. As I drove through the streets like a blazing bullet, I was surprise to find this thing full of gas. I thought it would be emptied like most vehicles.
Author's P.O.V
At the mall, the three remaining in the vehicle pulled into the back and saw the others with the supplies packed into crates and boxes. Once everyone was out, they started to load he car with all the supplies they were able to take.
"Where's Hannah?" Zoey asked.
Bill answered. "A Tank came after us. She led it away so we could get here safely."
"So you left her?" Ellis questioned.
The sound of a motorcycle engine came into hearing distance and soon saw it and the rider headed towards them. They aimed their guns at the proceeding biker as it came to a stop in front of them. However, the biker took her helmet off to reveal it was Hannah.
"Whoa, not the welcome I was thinking." She joked.
Aaron walked up to her. "You're safe."
"Yeah, but I'm not in top condition." She rubbed her side.
He looked at it and smelled blood and touched it, earning a hiss from Hannah. "You're hurt."
"Hey!" Coach called out to them. "In case you haven't noticed, we have to get moving!"
Hannah looked pass Aaron. "Alright, we're on it!"
{I'm guessing I'm riding with them?} Aaron questioned her.
Hannah sighed. "No choice, it would be better if I lead them on the motorcycle then let someone else drive this thing behind the car." She gave him a small smile. "Don't worry, the bunker isn't that far."
{Alright, but what happens if they figure out what I am?} Aaron asked.
Hannah shrugged. "We'll deal with it when we cross that bridge, but for now, just act like a human being and you'll be fine."
Aaron nodded and hopped into the passenger seat of the Hummer H1 while Hannah put on her helmet and hopped on the motorcycle. Nick started up the car and followed as Hannah led them out of the small town and into the countryside. On their way to this secret underground bunker.
Alright, school is out which means I'll have more time to work on my stories so please review and Chapter 8 will be on its way.
