Chapter 14: Wrath of the Dead, pt. 2
The kids looked at the incredibly hopeless situation with no hope of survival. They had no idea which way to turn this time, seeing as both paths might result in death. "Guys..." Charlie said.
"Yes?" The others asked.
"I want you all to know that even though we seemed like we wouldn't like each other at first, we've grown to rely on each other. I feel happy knowing if I were to die, I will do it protecting you guys."
Violet told him, "It's okay. We will survive. We will do what we can. I know things seem like it's too late, but maybe not. I care about all of you, and I won't stop until we get out."
Eric turned and said, "I can assure you I will make sure you get out. You kids are good people, and I will use everything I have to help."
"Aw, how touching!" They all looked up to see Alex and Kat above them. "Too bad this won't be as fun as we wanted it to be." The army of dead behind them jumped from the platform and attacked the kids. Eric broke the kids out and they ran back as Eric stopped the dead from advancing. He pulled out a crowbar and knocked off heads as he approached each "zombie."
Mr. Wonka choose to send out Oompa-Loompas in odd-looking tanks. The Oompa-Loompas fired explosive candy from the tanks, practically mowing down the dead. That doesn't mean the dead couldn't do anything against them. Some of them snuck up on Oompa-Loompas, killed them, and hijacked the tanks. The tanks fired at each other until they were completely destroyed. In response, the Oompa-Loompas were getting slaughtered left and right. They even began to overrun Eric, forcing Violet to back him up. Eventually, Wonka was fed up with the death. "ENOUGH!" He shouted. He pressed a button and an electric field generated around the room, paralyzing everyone except for himself. He got to the top platform and yelled to everyone,
"Look at all of you! Bringing more death into my place of living! I have spent years cleaning up everyone's messes. I've wasted my life away serving the good of this shithole of a town! It's a misery-filled place, and it should be burned to the ground."
"Mr. Wonka!" Eric called out. "Set the kids and me free, so we can end this!"
Mr. Wonka shouted, "Don't you command me, freak of nature! When I kill the twins, you're going to a cell for more experimentation, and so are the children. Can't have witnesses, you know."
Eric yelled, "You liar!"
Mr. Wonka angrily snapped back, "Did you think I would just let them go? You're even stupider in death than you were in life." He pulled out a hidden gun from his cane and aimed at the twins. "When they go..."
Violet, however, figured out she could reach the crowbar. "...No one will miss them." Violet threw the crowbar, and it hit the switch controls. The platform shook, and the controls were busted. Everyone was free, and Wonka landed on the floor, surrounded by the dead. "Now, now, let's not get excited." Alex and Kat quietly approached him. "I never started this. You have to remember that!"
The twins looked at him and smiled. "Look at this," Kat said, "He's actually begging for us to stop. He didn't do that when we were hurt by him."
Alex replied, "Yeah. It's almost sad, since he's practically already dead." He snapped his fingers and the dead jumped on Wonka. The kids watched in terror as the zombies began to rip Wonka apart. They ate at his flesh and sunk their teeth in his bones.
"KILL ME, PLEASE!" Wonka cried in agony. One of the dead sunk his teeth in Wonka's neck and ripped his head from his shoulders. The rest continued to feed on him. When they finished, they stared at the kids. They began to walk towards them, but Eric stood in front.
"You got your revenge. Let them go."
Alex snarled, "You dare deny us food?"
Kat snarled as well, "You're a husk, and we still need flesh! Stay out of our way!"
Violet got in a fighting stance, saying, "What are you going to do after?"
Alex smiled viciously and said, "We're going to run through the streets, and consume as much as we can. We'll target the hard targets first, and then no one can protect the easy ones. And we found that there is another way to get to our monster forms." The twins came together and kissed each other. The kids were disturbed at the sight of seeing siblings make out, which was a bad idea. "We can feed off the disturbance of others." The twins then started to groan in pain. Their hands shook, their veins were bulging and pumping, and their eyes turned completely white. They roared in a primal shriek, ran after the kids.
The kids and Eric ran through the hallways in fright, as the twins and the dead continued to follow them. When they got to the entrance, they found it was still locked. The twins slowly approached the kids, with bloodlust in their eyes. Violet ran at Alex, and drop kicked him in the face. She ran at him again, but Alex grabbed her and threw her down. He drooled as he was about to bite her, but a loud noise and a flash rang out. Alex fell to the floor, dead from a shot to the head. Kat immediately changed back and cried. "Alex...NO! Don't leave me! I love you! Don't go!" She heard a clicking sound before getting shot in the head as well. She fell dead to the floor with a frozen look of fear. The dead ran back to the lab in order to avoid being attacked.
They stood in silence, not believing what happened. However, as they stood there, the door automatically unlocked and opened. They all ran outside to see it was still night. Violet looked at her watch, "It's 5 o' clock, so the sun hasn't risen."
Eric turned to them and said, "Well, this is where we say goodbye. I'm going off to figure out what to do with my life. Although, considering I'm immortal, that's a lot of time. Take care, everyone." And Eric left.
Violet asked Charlie, "So, what do we do now?"
Charlie thought for a minute before saying, "Well, we should call the authorities. But first, follow me to my house. There is something I have to find out."
That's the chapter! Now all that is left is the finale. Stay tuned for it! The last questions will be answered. Take care, everyone!
