A/N: this is it everyone, the final chapter. I would like to thank everyone who stuck around this far to see the ending of this virus, zombie, killing, massacre, Outbreak. It has been a great privilege to write to you all about a story of comedy, romance, horror, and lot of blood, guts and guns!
This is the last zombie story I'll ever write, unless you guys want me to write a different story about it. So here it is. . . . enjoy, for now.
They could hear rumbling sounds from above them. They knew that Tony would find them soon. But that didn't stop them from running up the stairs. But now they have a new problem to face, they all realized that the infected can no longer be killed with a headshot.
They had run down a narrow staircase for about a good 10 minutes before coming up to another hallway.
"Guys look" Garth shouted, pointing up to a set of doors. Everyone ran towards the doors, where it had a keypad on the side. Then Clark walks up to it and shoots the keypad, opening the doors on cue.
Humphrey moved into the room first, holding up the 'DG-2' while he waited for everyone else to come in with him. "Watch for infected" Carez said, aiming his gun around for anything that moved. When everyone came in, they realized that they were in some sort of huge monitor room, having big screens of the every room of the whole facility.
In the middle of the screens, showed a digital map of the entire facility and the exact location of where they were. Lake walked up to the map, which was a touch screen, moved the map around. "Guys, I found the garage and the escape hatch that leads to the surface" He said, pointing to the garage area and a driveway that went up to the streets of Washington.
"Great, but where should we go to?" Reba asked him. it looks like we have to take another set of stairs, then go right, then left, take another right, go straight . . ." "Guys" Humphrey suddenly interrupted Lake, who was standing in front of the wall of monitors.
In the middle of the monitors, was a countdown clock and it had counted down from 25 minutes. Everyone walked over to him and looked at the clock.
"What's the clock for?" Kate asked. Humphrey didn't answer.
"Humphrey?" Kate asked, trying to get his attention. "This place is what caused the virus outbreak. If they want no one to ever find out about it, they want to get rid of the entire facility. Permanently." Humphrey spoke out.
Everyone stood there confused, and then took time to process to finally figure out what Humphrey meant. "This place is rigged to blow" CJ finally said out the answer. Humphrey nodded and stood there. "It's Jasper city all over again" Lilly said, bringing up the memory of the nuke that destroyed the infected city that was once their home.
"We have to find a way to the surface. Lake, show us the way" Humphrey said looking at him. "First we have to go through this door." He said walking to a door on the other side of the room, which led to more hallways. Everyone groaned.
"What is it with these damn hallways?" Rose asked.
The group walked down the hallway and made different turns every couple of seconds. The walk seemed to go on forever until they heard movement coming from the next hallway. "Stop" Humphrey said, holding his paw up telling everyone to stay still.
The heard more footsteps coming closer. Everyone waited with their weapons loaded, which was no good since the infected can no longer die with headshots. The steps got louder and closer. Everyone stood their ground.
Then, out of the corner came 3 of the soldiers they met earlier. Everyone let out a sigh of relief. "Oh, it's only you guys. . . ." Humphrey spoke but stopped when he saw blood dripping from the mouths of the soldiers.
"Everyone, stay back" he said to everyone behind him. CJ stepped backwards from the back of the group. "Clark, we need to move" CJ, but looked around to see Clark nowhere in sight. "Clark?" CJ asked.
Then, out of nowhere from the ceiling, came Clark's lifeless body, with his intestines hang out all over. Then, from the ceiling came an infected, holding Clark's intestines in its mouth. The 3 undead soldiers looked up at the group and screeched.
Without thinking, Humphrey raised the DG-2 weapons and fired.
The weapon suddenly blasted a bright light at the undead and then he heard a crackling sound, almost like electricity. Then he and everyone see the infected being electrocuted while screeching in pain. Soon, they all fell to the ground with their heads completely gone.
Everyone stood there in shock, seeing the result of Humphrey's new weapon. "Whoa, didn't expect that" he said, still in shock. Then they all turn around to see CJ looking down at his dead brother. Carez walked up to him. "CJ, we have to keep moving" He said. "No" CJ said.
"I'm not leaving my brother here to die" he said in a cold tone. Just then, a voice came over the speakers around the hallways. "Attention. All personal evacuate the facility at this time. 15 till detonation" "We have to leave now!" Shigeru said.
"Come on CJ, we'll die if we don't leave soon" Carez said to CJ, who was still looking at his brother. Then he finally snapped out of it and let Carez drag him by the arm back to the group, who already started running.
"Everyone, this way" Humphrey said running to a large set of doors. The doors then opened automatically as everyone made it into what seemed like a large Hanger. "We made it!" Kate said, showing a smile on her face.
"Alright good, now all we need is to find something that will . . . "Humphrey was suddenly interrupted by the sound of something large lading right in front of them. The impact sent the group falling back a few feet.
Humphrey looked up to see Tony, but was completely mutated. His left arm was a large sharp blade made of his bone. His chest and stomach area were covered in veins, and popping out of his skin. His tail was now a long tentacle with a blade at the end of it, which killed Janice. His right paw had the finger nails sticking out long and sharp, stained with blood. Finally half of his face was ripped off and showed his skull and eyeball.
"You guys aren't going anywhere" Tony said, in a deeper and demon- like voice.
Everyone instantly raised their guns and fired all of their rounds at Tony, who started walking at them taking the bullets like he was wearing a bullet proof vest.
"Is that all you got?" He asked. Kate fired the ray gun, which sent Tony back a bit, and then growled. "You'll pay for that" he said. At that point, he ran towards them, only for Garth to fire the Thunder gun, sending him flying back crashing into a parked hummer.
"Humphrey, look" Rose yelled. They looked to see a Black hawk helicopter parked a few feet away far from where Tony was. "Everyone quick, get in the helicopter before he comes back" Humphrey ordered. With that, everyone made a run for it.
"Carez, you think you can fly this thing?" Humphrey asked him. "You'd be surprised" he answered by running into the cockpit and looking through the controls. "Alright, everyone get on . . . ." Humphrey was suddenly grabbed around the waist by some red tentacle and was pulled back by Tony.
"Humphrey!" Kate cried. Tony held Humphrey in the air with his mutated tail and tied his arms up, unable to fire his gun. "Everyone, get inside. We'll go get Humphrey" Garth said, running towards Tony with Lilly and Kate behind him.
Reba, CJ, Shigeru, Rose, Susie, Shakey, Carez, Lake, David, Susie, and John made their way into the helicopter as Carez figured out the controls.
Tony used his tail to start squeezing Humphrey painfully. "Get off of him!" Kate yelled, shooting the ray gun again. The green blasts blew off parts of Tony's body from him, but soon regained back after a few short seconds. "Fools, virus Z27 was made to regenerate lost body parts from the wolf" Tony smiled.
Humphrey could feel his body become crushed by Tony and couldn't move his arms. Then he raised his right arm, his nails long and sharp, but was shot by Lilly, with the 'winter's howl' gun. The freezing hit Tony's arm, then it froze up to his shoulder, where it broke into pieces.
Tony's screeched in pain. He then looked at the 3, and then bared his long sharp dark yellow teeth. Out of nowhere he grew his arm back and shot out black worm like things at their necks, sending them to the ground while being choked out and dropping their weapons.
They struggled to get free, but they were no use for it tightened quickly.
Tony then looked at Humphrey. "Because of you, I can use you blood to help me restore to my formal self. Then use it to make 'the people' my own army to hunt and kill anyone still alive out in the world and use their blood. So say your last prayers, fighter" Tony said, bring down Humphrey in front of him, and then raising his blade up to his neck.
Humphrey gulped and closed his eyes.
That's when he heard a screeching noise behind Tony. The two both look to see an infected jumping out of nowhere and landing on Tony's back and biting him hard. This makes him release Humphrey as he tries to pull off the infected.
Humphrey looks up to see Tony growling, then when he turned his back, he saw someone he didn't expect, undead Matthew. He bit and scratched at Tony while snarling. Then out of nowhere he sees undead Winston, Eve, Hutch, and Cando jump out and attack Tony.
"Humphrey, help us!"Kate yelled. He got up and pulled off the worms off of Kate, Lilly, and Garth, and then the four look around to see undead Flyra, Hager, Janice, Alberto, Luis, Shakey, Salty, Mooch, Claw, and Scar jumping out and attacking Tony.
They were shocked, scared, and relieved for what they were seeing.
"Guys, come on!" Carez shouted from the helicopter. The propellers started spinning and then made the noise of it getting ready to take off. Humphrey, Kate, Lilly, and Garth just stood there still in shock. Then undead Matthew turns around at them, with one eye glowing orange, and the other a brown color. "GO, leave!" he shouted before returning to feeding off of Tony.
They didn't waste any time and ran towards the helicopter from the back. "Everyone strap in!" Carez yelled from the cockpit. From above, the roof of the hanger opened, revealing a hatch opening up in the WW2 memorial back in the surface.
Everyone sat down quickly and put on their seatbelts as Carez flew the helicopter up to the opening. Humphrey looked out the window to see his undead allies pull down Tony and start pulling off his body parts.
Soon the helicopter made its way to the top of the hatch, where everyone could see the surface again. The night sky was still out but they could see the sunset in the east. Around them in the streets were infected running around with the destruction of Washington.
Carez turns a few switches and moved the helicopter to the left and flew away. Then he turned back to everyone in the back. "Everybody, hang on!" he shouted. Humphrey looked to his right to open back door of the helicopter to see the Capital building.
Then, in a bright flash, there was a huge bang. The explosion came from the ground and the shockwave was powerful enough to wipe out the capital building and the Washington monument. The explosion wasn't big enough as a nuke, but it felt like one.
Seconds later the helicopter shook for a few seconds before finally calming down. Everyone watched as the sunset rose out of the horizon and shined like it was great day, and it was.
"Man, this had been a lot of shit we've been through." Garth said resting his head back with Lilly resting her head on his shoulder, while holding Cesar in her arms. "It's still not over guys" Humphrey said, everyone looking at him. "There are still other survivors out there in need of our help. And I'm sure there is someone out there looking for a cure" he said, looking at Kate.
"So what do you suggest?" Kate asked. "We find a new home out there. Somewhere, look for others who are still alive." Humphrey answered. "After the crazy shit we've been thought the last 2 months? I don't see why not" Garth said, giving Humphrey a smile.
Everyone looked at Humphrey, all smiling at him. Then he turns to Kate, who gives him a sweet smile. "Alright. Carez" Humphrey calls out to him. "Take us somewhere, where we can set up camp and start our lives again" He said to him.
Carez gives him a thumb up and flies the helicopter to a new destination. They don't know where, but it was better than where they were at. As long as they were fighting the undead as a team, as allies, as a big family, they would travel the world to find a place to call home.
The group all sat there in the helicopter as they flew off into the sunset.
The End
A/N: I would like to thank you all who stuck with me to the end. I also said that some wolves would die, and they did. This is the end of the zombie series of this author. I am still going to work horror stories of Alpha and Omega throughout the years, until Alpha and Omega 2 comes out.
This is Dawn walker wolf signing off, and saying Goodnight.
