So, you might believe that my last chapter cut off abruptly and it was sorta like a cliffhanger. Which it wasn't meant to be, I was planning to make it one giant chapter but I didn't have enough time to finish it, so I just uploaded the first part yesterday. I hope it didn't bother you, to apologize for the long delay I've decided to make the second part today. So, with nothing else to comment on, enjoy!
The Last Peashooter Division
A Plants Vs Zombies Tale - Chapter 9: Sympathy for the Devil Pt.2
Commando clenched his lifeless body in his leaves, sobbing at the death of this poor man.
It was one of the first times that Commando ever cried, that and the time a Stink Cloud Grenade was thrown in his house by a foot soldier and had killed his parents. Peater was still shooting at the trees before finally, the Sniper fell from his position, torn to pieces by the constant fire. It never came to mind that day that Peater could've just sped off into the river and avoided the zombie, that he regretted deeply. It might've been the reason Commando had such a resentment for Peater, as it was technically his fault. That moment kept Peater up at night for weeks on end, the pair drove off further into the swamp and met up with the other boat crews, who looked at them inquisitively. "Hey man, where your other guy? That walnut you had on board, don't tell me..". Joker, a sergeant in the regiment said as he tensed up. "H-he didn't mak-e i-it" Commando mumbled, facing the little hole he would've sat in if he was still here. "He got sniped from the treeline didn't he? Knew some fucker was camping up their, you gotta be more car-" "IF IT WASN"T FOR PEATERS DUMBASS M-MAYBE HE'D STILL BE HERE!". Commando had screamed over the sergeant, nearly knocking Peater off the boat. "I-i'm sorry, it came so fast I-I just pulled over a-a-and I jus", "NO! THEIRS NO EXCUSE FOR YOU! YOUR A F-FUCKING JOKE OF A PLANT!" Commando screamed again, much to the fear of the other plants. "Calm the hell down Corporal before I flip your roots off the goddamm boat!" said another Peashooter, nicknamed Ironleaves from the Battle of Surburbia for brutally killing 3 Soldiers in combat with just his leafs. After that Commando turned away and sat down on the side of the boat, the confused Peashooters exchanged glances and went back to there respected boats, before speeding off forward to the target.
22, 15, 73, 90, 4323, 11, Ascension, 68, 99, 3425, Relay Code Bravo Foxtrot Alpha.. Imp compromised, proceed.. To… TARGET
Peater twisted the boat sideways at the site of the Dam, it was gigantic. It spanned the entire waterfall drying out the river in front of it, giant stripes of purple struck down the Dams wall, and giant garage doors were present in the back with flashing orange lights aligned in the center. Helicopters were pounding missiles at the walkway while SAM Turrets fired Homing-Missiles at them, multiple Camo Troopers were in the trees on the sides firing at the boats below. Peater tuned his radio on the craft to the frequency the Soldiers were talking on, "WE HAVE MULTIPLE MISSILES FIRED A-(static) ..(static) Repeat again Charlie? REQU-..(static) FIRE ON THE ROOFTOPS... Roger that Charlie firing Cobs on your coordinates". It was a cluttered mess of static and shouting that it was nearly impossible to comment on his own, so he took it to himself to grab the M60 and fire at the Dam's defenses. The sky turned to flames as Napalm was dispersed on the walkway burning the rotten flesh off of the Soldiers limbs as they run off the sides into the water, as it was happening the Zombies also had drones in the air from Engineers firing at the PT Boats down below. "Peater, get your dumbass over here and help me blow open the blast-doors!", Joker shouted over the gunfire. Peater unholstered his M16 and jumped from his Boat to Jokers boat. "Take these Charges and plant them on the entrances, I'll take care of the Zombies. "Now hurry the fuck up before a ZPG blows open your stem!". ..As Peater twisted and turned in the present time, he realized what he said would apply much later in his life, how funny.
He dove into the water, realizing it was a sea of flesh and blood he surfaced almost immediately. Gagging at the sight of it, after he proceeded to slam into the concrete wall. He placed the Charges on the surface before diving back into the water to approach later on the side of the Boat, struggling to climb up while looking like an idiot at the same time. A Zombie took advantage of the sight and shot his Z-1 Blaster at the unaware Peashooter striking him in the back, Peater yelled in pain and fell back into the water, adding even more blood to the already blood red water. "PEATER! Fucking hell man, I got you!", Joker reached his pods into the water and Peater mustered the strength to grab on. The Foot Soldier yet again fired at Joker striking him in the stem, he screamed in agony and fell on top of the injured Peater. With the last of his strength, the Peashooter remembered he had the Detanator to the Charges, and quickly pressed it.
The Dams Blast-Doors blew straight off and the entire thing shook knocking the Soldiers off the ledge to their deaths, the water below formed a wave and swept the Boats and Peashooters off of the riverbed and into the air before crashing into the water spiraculosly. Some of the Boats Gas Tanks were punctured in the crash and soon Gasoline was leaking into the water aswell, one Helicopter was hit with a flying PT Boat which sent it flying into the treeline to it's brutal end. It was a bloodbath oin the murkey water filled with the souls of dead Plants and Zombies alike, the Dam was starting to crumble into the water and leaks were forming on the sides as flames burned on the top. Zomboss was absolutley furious that his Army suffered such a lost to such an incoordinaded mess of the Plants.
15 minutes passed before Joker resurfaced on a flipped boat carrying his comrade Peater in his leaves, tossing him onto it before climbing on himself. It seemed like the battle was over with a draw, before more reinforcements arrived at the scene, rescuing the fallen Soldiers in the water. Sunflowers wearing Red-Crosses tried to revive the incapacitated but many lives were still lost to the battle, it was enough for the higher-ups at the LEAF HEadquarters to mark it as a failure. As more and more Peashooters swarmed in to aid the battle soon ended in a decisive victory for the Plants, even if the casulties were high. The Plants rose a Garden on the crumbling walkway to mark it as another base for the Plants, and the last of the Army retreated to there Home Base at the docks down the river.
Peater, after having his flashback felt as if he was at peace, before falling into another sleep. Sunny at his side observing the Captain. Wondering why he was staring blanky at the wall for 20 minutes straight without blinking, oh well.. Probably just sleeping with his eyes open. She soon started to feel dreary, and resided to her corner of the Mattress. Falling into the same sleep Peater was in. Meanwhile.. Zomboss was scheming at his desk for another way to screw over the Plants back for his loss at the Factory, he stayed up for hours pondering at his seat before slamming his fists on the metal desk.
"Perfect! They'll never see it coming, those scatterbrained idiots. I'll show them whos the real boss around here, the real Zomb-boss. Cool pun too! I'll make sure to write that down! Muhahahahaaa!"
