Hi! So this chapter is nothing really, just introducing some new enemies.
So i was doing my browsing and I saw that people are complaining because they only have 80 reviews! Like wow so um we would really like some reviews for the people that read this, there's no biggie in reviewing right?
I also feel like I'm getting off track so I need someone to tell me, is this chappie okay?
Contact between me and -M is getting hard cause well, we live in different countries.
so we need some supporters to help us keep us going.
I could hear my heart beating, slowly, i blink, everything is slow, like someone drowsy walking away. I could hear Merida wailing, Astrid repetitively gasping. the beating from my heart had traveled to my ears, and i felt dizzy as i kicked a walker, feeling blood sprinkle on my face. i spit out blood as i feel my breathing quicken, my heart beats faster and the noise travels to my ears. i kick again, attacking the zombies head (gross part) and feeling it crush against my convert shoes.
"Gross," I gasp.
"Anna!" Merida grabbed my hand and pulled me up, checking for any infecting bites or scratches on my blooded skin.
"Bit?" I shake my head, unable to speak as i gasp, feeling my lungs withering. but i knew i wasn't bit.
Merida pulls me up higher, i see everyone awkwardly standing around her, they had all left their little forgetful havens.
"Y'all lucky i killed e'm," a cheery voice murmured from the door, i turned around, whipping my face to a skinny, old man. he was quite short... okay very short and had greying hair. he was waring a ripped T-shirt, but when you think about it, by now everyones clothes were ripped.
His face retorted, like he had been slapped in the face.
"alow me... to introduce myself, i am rumple!" he rolled his tongue at his name like a cat purring.
"hey rumple, is this your bar? thanks for killing those thinks, I'm Anna and-" Merida cut me off, i blush... did i talk to much again?
"I'm Merida, Anna, Astrid, Hiccup, Pocahontas." astrid flicks her fringe out of her face, watching Rumple with pure suspicion.
"What do you want?"
Rumple fills the air with a high pitched laugh, smiling a strange smile, just plain strange.
I don't know if I should trust him, i thought, thinking of Elsa's suspicious glare.
If only Elsa were here, she'd know what to do... I thought.
"I'm here to help," Rumple snaps me from my grieving, putting his hands in the air' his smile never leaving his face.
he points north, where me, Elsa and Merida had planned to go. where the farms lay, safe and away from walkers.
"We have a farm, safe from zombies, with plenty of food..." my stomach grumbles, as if it had heard the strange mans words, he tilts his head, his smile starting to haunt me.
"Now we all know Y'all can't survive without food,"
"What's the catch?" I ask, thinking of what Elsa would do.
"No catch!" he squeals.
"Except you must stay."
"Why do you care if we stay?"
his smile widens into a huge madman grin.
"You need people to survive, am i right? people need people to be people...people people people!"
this guy is strange.
"I don't know... Hiccup?" Astrid is talking now, because i have no idea what Elsa would do now, what would Elsa do? I ask myself gingerly.
Hiccup narrows his eyes.
"How do we know it's not a trap?" he asks.
Rumple whips his face towards Hiccup, who doesn't flinch at all under Rumple's cold stare.
"We don't lie."
OoOoOoOo
I sigh, trying to ignore Rumples terrible singing voice.
Hiccup put his rusted lizard cage on the desk next to my Snow globe that was especially made for me, (it had me, Elsa and a snowman called Olaf in it) and my Frying pan. inside Hiccups cage was a pitch-black lizard that Hiccup had named Toothless.
Astrid also had one, a golden spiked lizard (don't know if there is such thing soz guys ;P) which was laid beside Toothless, I had never met someone with pet lizards until now.
must be a couple thing. I sigh, how would i ever know? My heart will always be alone, according to Hans.
I try to take in my surroundings, still suspiciously glancing at Rumple every now and then.
Everyone jumps on a rusty bed, calling "taken" or "mine" until there is only one bed left.
I sit on the last bed, which is a pink 5 year old bed with Fairy bedding, i roll my eyes, better than nothing!
"So you can live with us!" the sound of Rumples voice makes me tense, something about his voice just... irritated me.
It had taken a day to travel via car to the farm, dragging me further and further away from Elsa, what if she was alive!
The farm was huge!
We had only passed a few walkers on our way to the farm, the air had wiped my cheeks and made them red from the open window as we raced further away from the sky scrapers, from the villages, from the city. as it had become dark the street lights were the only thing that kept the place from pure blackness, Rumple didn't like the car lights, so we didn't use them.
after what seemed for ever the smooth tar road turned into a bumpy, dirt pathway, the car jumped the whole way to the Farm and by the time we had gotten there everyone was awake, holding in their last meal that had seemed like ages ago.
the sun stared down at us as Hiccup had opened the creaking gate.
The farm was huge, plenty acres wide and definitely enough to be a farm. there were crops randomly planted in different nooks and crannies around the farm and two buildings faced each other, one painted with a faded red, probably the barn, and the other painted in an antique white colour.
weeds as tall as us crowded the massive space, begging for a tiny drop of water.
Rumple had taken us high into the white house, into the last room with barred windows, the window viewed the plains that stretched across the farm house.
the room had just enough beds, and had pictures of the beach hung up everywhere, surrounding me like a waterfall.
"Have a look around, dinner is cooking," Rumple's voice faded as he walked down the stairs that creaked every now and then.
I sigh, what is there to do? a voice growled in my head, I satisfy myself with following Rumple down the stairs while everyone else made theirselves at home. I had to make sure this place was safe before we settled in. I hold onto the textured railing as i stumble down the flight of stairs, counting each step to distract myself.
153...154...155 stairs.
Rumple didn't bother to turn around, he walked to the kitchen, humming a high pitched tune.
I blocked my ears, god, i thought, i cannot stand that voice for much longer.
I head to the door, Maybe i should look around.
The grass that was once fresh had faded to a dark yellow and the dirt had dried, begging for rain.
I hold my hand above my eyes to block out the scorching sun, The barn was about fifty metres from the house, it had one coat of dark red that was peeling from the heat.
I walked up to it, ignoring the grass that was tickling my ankles, and pulled at the door knob, rattling it till my hand hurt, it was locked. great.
i narrowed my eyes in suspicion, what did they have to hide? what was behind that door?
I step back preparing to smash the door down with my foot, a run and kick. pain shot up my foot. Ouch! i think as i hop back to the barn door, leaning on it.
I'll just ask Rumple right? I decided as i turned my back to the barn and headed back to the white tall house, limping the fifty metres.
"Hello Darling!" a cheery female voice called as i walked into the house, I headed to the kitchen, that's where the voice was coming from. Thank god it's not Rumple, i thought. i couldn't stand to hear that voice.
Some sort of meat was sizzling in the pan, and the lady that had greeted me had her back to me. she had rosy cheeks and golden blonde hair, she wore a light green dress and brown boots, she gracefully walked over to me, giving me a breath-squeezing hug.
"Hello Darling! I am Mrs Belle, but Y'all can call me Tinker Belle, Welcome to the Netherlands Farm!"
I pulled back from her hug, smiling politely and shaking her hand.
"Hi! I'm Anna," I paused, looking for the words i could say, would it be rude to ask why a door was locked? it might be something private. I sighed, it was to late, she was already waiting.
"Yes?" she impatiently asked, glancing back at the meat sizzling in the pan.
"Um, do you know what's in the barn? it was locked."
She froze, looking alarmed as she stared at me, after what seemed an eternity, she laughed, pinching my checks painfully.
"Darling your a little nosey one aren't you?"
She let go of my cheeks and turned back to her cooking. i rubbed my poor cheeks as she replied, her voice calming and positive.
"Relax hun, thats just were we keep all the storage, Now, Rumple told me you should get your friends, he's gonna teach you how to use a gun."
OoOoOo
I tense as Rumple stands behind me, breathing into my neck and sending goosebumps up my spine, making me shiver.
he holds out a gun and waits until I finally take it, unsure, should i be doing this? I sceptically think, looking down at Rumple.
I snatch the gun from Rumples hands and try to block out his giggle as he strolls over to the next person.
I weigh the gun in my hands, this is really heavy! i think as I lift it higher, the Gun was huge, and it felt like it weighed as much as I did!
once everyone had received and fiddled with their guns, Rumple started to talk, making me tense once again.
"Now use the trigger, hold the guns and aim for something, small in the distance," He calls, instructing everyone, he grabs a gun from the pile where he had gotten ours and shows us, aiming at a small tree.
I lift my gun in the air, straining it as high as i can.
"Breath in: aim, exhale: fire!" He shouts over the huge bang of the gun.( anyone divergent?)
My ears pop and I strain my eyes to see if the bullet had gotten its target, it did.
I sigh, Breathing in and aiming, Exhaling and feeling my thumb push the trigger,, BAM!
The noise fills the air and rings in my ears, I drop the gun and scream, holding my ear as if i could shut out the ringing that was filling my mind.
Rumple mouths something like he is screaming, but i can't hear anything but the ringing in my ears, like standing next to a ringing church bell. Rumple was running to the Barn that had been next to us, spots clouded the edge of my eyes and i felt a tear streaming down my puffy cheek.
I could just see the door swinging open, maybe my bullet had hit the lock, or maybe someone else's.
The red door swung open to reveal a pile of bodies, arms and legs cut off them, the room was painted in a thick rasberry red, just the colour of blood.
Everyone was petrified, their guns lay on the floor and their lesson forgotten. Saws lay beside the piles of bodies, their skin wasn't pale, their eyes were empty but not from being a walker, from death. these people had been murdered, I knew not because of the bodies stacked like a heap of books, but because of the look Rumple gave me.
If looks could kill... I'd be more than dead.
Everyone is screaming, I can't hear them but i know, I know when someone is scared, i know.
"Run!" I scream. i can just hear myself but it's to late, Rumple, with a look of pure hatred on his face, rounds us up, pointing a gun at our heads. other people that i don't know have come down to see the commotion, and have also grabbed a gun, pointing it at any head.
Goodbye sun, I think as i stare at it for probably the last time, have a nice billion years left.
I feel the light leaving my skin and sinking away as Rumple closes the door, leaving us in pitch black.
I feel my ears painfully un pop, I can hear!
And then the shouting starts.
And hell breaks loose.
OoOoOoOoO
I shivered, crossing my arms over my body, I was so hungry. It had been about a week since I had last seen the light, or was it a month? no, I sigh, It was a year ago... I don't know, we had been cooped up for to long.
I looked down at my dirty clothes, i was so thin from the lack of food, my stomach growled. oh well, better than eating people.
"Hey," Merida's voice called from beside me, i hadn't even realised she was next to me. I moaned, forcing a smile as I waved at her.
"Hi."
She looked down at the ground, sighing.
"How long have we been in here?"
I giggled, but strait away felt bad, this wasn't funny.
"I have no Idea," I mused.
My stomach grumbled noisily and I felt my face redden, "Sorry!" I breathed.
Merida looked amused, "It's fine."
A bunch of groans came from the distance, like a million people chanting a spell.
"Was that you?" i asked Merida.
the noise became louder. moans from about a thousand people!
"Everyone get up!" Hiccup yelled, walking around the place scattering hay around (They are locked up i the barn)
"Walkers!"
gasps and mutters filled the air, a few people wailing.
"Calm yourselves!" I called, listening to my voice echoing in the barn. suddenly a master plan idea popped into my mind.
"If the walkers are invading, we could use that as an advantage!"
Hiccup scoffed, "How?"
a voice behind hiccup spoke this time, It took me a while to realise it wasn't hiccup, even though my hearing was better it was still not the best.
"...So we can escape and run away, Anna your a genius!" The voice belonged to Pocahontas, not so shy anymore, i thought.
The noise was coming closer, like a helicopter landing on top of the roof.
"I now how to make fire?" Astrid suggested, examining all the hay on the ground.
After a long pause all of us ran into action, grabbing hay and stacking them like the bodies of humans.
Astrid lit the fire, which was as small as a ben seed, but it grew like the magic bean stalk, growing higher and becoming lighter.
Fire, i thought, what a beautiful thing, beautiful but deadly.
The fire crackled above our heads and grew stronger, wholes forming in the roof, the fire must have attracted the walkers because they pushed and slammed at the barn, luckily only on the other side of the fence, as planned.
"Here," Pocahontas hands me a gun, I take it confused.
"where did you get that?" but Pocahontas was already gone, handing everyone else a steaming hot gun.
Suddenly I heard a snap, and my heart beat crazily as I realised what had just happened.
The gate had fallen.
"NO!" I wailed, zombies were surrounding the barn now, pretty much making a gate-way into death.
"Wait!" Hiccup called, holding his hands in the air.
"They need bait, if I fire from somewhere far, it'll distract them while you guys run!" He had to shout over the noise now.
It took a while for the information to sink in, Hiccup was going to sacrifice himself.
" NO!" Astrid ran to Hiccup, hugging him.
"I've already lost my friend please do't leave me!"
"She's right!" Merida yelled, not waiting for attention.
"I'll do it!"
"No!" I called.
"This is useless!"
Pocahontas suddenly gave a high pitched birds call, getting everyones attention.
"goodbye."
She ran out of a whole in the barn wall before anyone could complain. everything was silent except for the moaning of the Walkers.
oOoOoO
Three gun shots sounded from far, three precious saviours. The zombies turned, losing hope on getting into the barn, they were to hungry to bother.
A tear slid down my cheek, I had to wipe it away so I didn't rain in them. I hated sacrifices.
"C'mon!" Hiccup called, he had been crying too.
We creeped out of the whole Pocahontas had gone through a few minutes ago, she will be remembered.
OoOoO
I walked further and further from the flames, Misery clouding me like a rain cloud.
I had no Idea where everyone was we had lost each other from fear, they had probably gone the other way., I'd see them again one day, when death came for us, we would meet. we had been separated by a bunch of Walkers, everyone was on their own now.
Everything was silent, The moon shined down on us, the sky painted black. the fire crackling behind me.
"STOP!" a voice In front of me wailed, as i felt my jaw tighten in annoyance i realised who it was.
Rumple.
"You made a promise!" He chuckled, pointing at me, his mad-man grin glued to his face.
I looked up at him, He was burnt everywhere, his eyes where staring at nothing, they were empty, which is what he deserves.
"You can never escape!" He laughed, his eyes mirroring the Flames behind us.
I walked over to him, fury controlling me, making me form a fist with my hands.
I walk up to him so that I am only a centimetre away from him.
"Watch me." I whispered. he had trapped us! he was going to eat us! I couldn't let him leave alive!
Humanity awoke me from fury. I gave him a hard punch, listening to his gasp as my fist met his cheek.
my fist crackled and pain swelled in them but i didn't care, I have survived through more pain I thought.
I turned away from him, letting him sob beside the heat, A huge crack came from the sky.
Thunder.
"Stop!" He screamed at me, I ignored him, he had ruined my life.
ruined it.
"keep your eyes open Anna!" He sneered, his voice echoing with the fire crackles.
"Keep looking behind you! because one day, We'll get you, We'll find you, and you'll wish we had eaten you!"
A shiver ran through my spine, even though heat surrounded me from the fire.
Rumples words scared me.
What a sicko, I grimaced to myself.
What a sicko..
OoOoOo
I waited for the rain to dye down, sheltering under some trees. the fire had gone out and everything was dark. I sighed. I didn't know what I was waiting for, Merida to push me around, Pocahontas to fire the gun, Hiccup and Astrid to scare me out of my shoes, Elsa...
I wiped my eyes, wishing that I wouldn't cry over everything.
It had been a day or two since the zombie attack and i had no idea what to do, I just ended up standing under that tree watching the hours tick by.
I had nothing, Tinker Belle and Rumple still had each other, they were lucky.
Suddenly a hand grabbed my mouth, pulling my head back.
"Gotcha!" A deep voice sneered, This wasn't Rumple, I had no Idea who it was.
I thought quickly, feeling every single hair on my spine, feeling goosebumps form along my arms, feeling my heart beat a million times a second (Exaggerated)
I bit into the guys hand, feeling his shock as he let go of my mouth.
"Ouch!" He called, "That hurt!"
He punched me continuously, all i could do was wait for it to be over, wait for a saviour, death, Humanity, something, a miracle.
I blacked out before the miracle could come.
OoOo
The man waited patiently in the dark, watching the rain dye away, becoming nothing but pools of water in the dead grass.
Another figure approached the man, walking sure foetidly until he reached the man, waiting behind him.
"You got her?" The man said, not bothering to turn around to face the other figure who was a tall, muscular man.
"Of course," the other man grunted, "that is what you asked for Rumple, isn't it?"
Rumple turned to finally face the tall man, he had to look up, being so short and all.
"Yes."
The other man suddenly held out his hand, as if expecting Rumple to put something in it.
Rumple grunted, fiddling around in his pocket until he murmured "jackpot," pulling out a small, heavy baggie filled with coins.
"Satisfied peterson P?" Rumple sighed, turning his back on the man again.
"No."
Rumple turned back, staring wide eyed at the tall man.
"What do you mean no! You caught the girl! And I gave you the money!" Rumple seems angry, screaming at the tall man, he must have guts.
The tall man pulls a sharp pocket knife from his shirt pocket, (gross part!) stabbing it hard into Rumples eye. He screams, falling to his knees. He cups his hand around his eye as if the man will strike again, a pool of blood forms on the ground where Rumple is standing.
"Yeah, we need her for mother Gothel though, she needs Anna as bait," the tall guy chuckles, leaving the knife handing in Rumples eye, who is still screaming.
The tall man walks away, throwing back his last words to Rumple.
"And its just Peter, Peter Pan."
OHH bam! Peter pan! What do you guys think, is he more a good guy or evil.
Thanks for reading!
