In the darkness of the room, a dim blue light is emitted from the monitor of a computer.
The light is washed over the face of Emma as she types in the pascode to activate the locks in the building.
"Ok were done, It says that everything activated by the lockdown will now unlock,including the lights! Althogh it may take some time saince everything has been inactive for so long."
Emma stated as she stood up and streched.
"Alright!" Rob shouted with relief. "Now we can finally get the hell out of here.!"
Harry pocketed his freshly reloaded gun and picked up his flashlight.
"So...should we stay and wait for the lights or start now" Emma asked.
"I say now,not going to be any less zombies in the light than in the dark."Harry says.
Rob nods with some hesitation, a few beads of sweat roll down his face but go unnoticed.
"Alright then lets go" Emma said, picking up her flashlight from beside the computer.
Harry clicked his flashlight on and lead the three of them down an aisle of dead computers. The dark, blank screens reflecting them with the light from the flashlight.
The door was dark except for a circle of light in the center.The three walked causously torwards the light at the end of their tunnel. Harry reached out with his free hand towards the knob.
His hand tiped the cold metal just as the door burst open. Harry stummbled back and fell, almost knocking down his 2 partners.
they all watched as the horde of zombies that had crowded outside the door had finally broken in.
Harry's flashlight fell on the face of the leading zombie. It was a female with long blone hair. Most of her flesh had been eaten away and the few peices that clung on were blood stained.
Her hair was an tangled web drenched in blood. The blood caused her hair to stick out in an unnatural way that sickened Rob almost to the point of being sick.
Her blue eye swam around wildly, watching them. It was bloodshot and seemed to be pretty far out of its socket. The other socket was empty with a trickle of blood running down her nonexistant face.
Harry scrambled to his feet and the three moved back as the crowd moved in. The leading female zombie was mere inches from Harry even as they moved back, down the asile.
The woman reach its arm out and it bruished against Harry's shirt. He nearly jumped out of his skin. Instead he reached into his pocket and pulled his gun out and began to shoot her.
He shot her and 2 zombies behind her in the head. The three slumped down in a heap. The zombies behind them quickly filled their space, some evern stopping to feast on the fallen.
Harry hesitated.
"Come on Harry! Shot them before they get us!!" Rob demanded.
"No...wait. We dont want to waste ammo..."
Rob glared at Harry angerly. "I dont consider this a waste!"
"Look...if we can lore them all in here..."
"Lore them in!?" Rob yelled as the three continued to move backwards. "Wby the hell do we want them all in here?!"
"Listen to me! We are going to need these bullets to get out of here. If we can get by without using any then we should! If we lore them all in..."
"We can go around the other aisle and run out...right?" emma said, finishing his statement.
Harry nodded with some sence of relief. "right"
Rob nodded. "Oh..."
The three moved back as the zombies closed in. Harry held his flashlight up to the new leading zombie.
It was a tall male with hair covering his eyes. Granted that he has eyes.Traces of blood covered his skin, but there were no missing chunks. Some skin was peeling off, but he seemed to be the most normal looking one they had seen...
The last zombie enteredthe room. The asile was completly full of zombies roaming towards their meal.
Harry and the others reached the end of the aisle and ran to the other side of it.
"They wont be smart enough to figure us out, Come On!" Harry says.
The three run down the aisle, following the circle of light produced by Harry's flashlight.
Suddenly there is a flash of light and a loud crashing sound as if lightning had just struck the room.
Harry stops and points his flashlight to the floor, one of the computers had been pushed over. The glass of the monitor lay in shards around it and small jolts of electricity danced from inside it.
Harry spun the flashlight over to the other side of the long table where the zombies were. He watched as they tryed to climb over the table, knocking over another computer which also made a flash and a crash.
"Crap! Hurry up lets go!" Harry demanded and began to move again.
Another flash and Boom was heard from behind them. They could hear the zombies dreadful moaning as they scrambled to get over the table. they were so hungrey.
Harry suddenly felt something tighten around his ankle and he tripped. He chin hit the ground hard with a rattling jolt of pain. He dropped the flashlight and saw it flicker off as it hit the ground.
But not before he saw the few zombies which had crawled under the table.
Another jolt of pain at his leg told him he being turned into dinner.
He began to flail but another strong grip grabbed his arm. He now struggled with tightly closed eyes to get away from them. He waited for another sharp pain to come to his arm.
But none did.
Instead he was pulled up, The zombie at his leg seemed of been kicked off. It was Rob and Emma, he had forgotten all about them.
"Come on" Emma breathed out " We have to get going."
The three started off again in the dark, not moving quite as fast as before but moving with urgency. The sounds of the zombies was frightening beyond belief.
Emma tryed to turn on her flashlighht as she moved but could not get it to work, she finnal gave up and threw it torwards the horde of zombies that thretened to eat them alive.
Rob stared into the darkness as he walked. He could not see a thuing but in his mind and thru his eyes he could see them. They were huge and hidious with blood dripping from inbetween each tooth.
Their eyes were scarlet and bulging. Yellow gunk forming around the eyes and oozing out of the ears. Huge claws coming towards him, threatening to cut him up and make him like them.
He shook his head and turned it towards the front of the room. His heart was pounding and invisible beads of sweat rolled aimlessly down his face.
He felt hot and at the same time he felt cold.
Harry felt the front wall with his hand and whispered "Ok we are at the front, lets move along this wall until we reach the door."
Rob and Emma nodded in the darkness and although Harry couldnt see them he felt their approval.
So the three walked, with their backs tightly pressed against the wall.Harry's hand was on the gun in his pocket.
Emma tryed to see if any of the zombies were near them but she couldnt see a thing.
Finally Harry felt the open door. With much haste and fear, the thrre ran out of the room and Rob shut the door tightly.
The three let out sighs of relef and some cheers. Just then, the lights flickered on. More cheers.
they could only squint after being in the dark for so long. Emma, with her eyes mostly closed, turned around and bumped into something soft but surprizingly solid.
She opened her eyes wide to see a empty face in front of her's.
A zombie, whose face was nothing but a mess of red , grabbed her arms tightly and brought his face towards her shoulder.
Emma shrieked and tryed to move but found she could not. The zombie bit tore of the the shoulder of hetr shirt. He chewed on it momentarly and spit it out. It feel heavily to the floor,bloodstained and battered.
The zombie went for another bite, however; he was cut off by Rob jamming his knife into his soft head.
The zombie realesed Emma and staggered back, he soon regained himself and started to move in again with the knife buried deep in his forehead.
The front of Emma's blouse was a bloody mess and it now hung on the right shoulder.
Instead of fighting the thing, the three darted down the hallway towards an elevator.
"this should work now" Emma stated.
Harry slammed his palm on the call button and the three heard the whirl of it begining to move.
A few seconds later the box had reached their floor. The three got ready to get on as the doors began to open.
The first thing they noticed was the awful smell, then they saw....
They saw that the booth was full of zombies.
Rob jumped back, his hair standing on end.The zombies had clearly been feeding off eachother.
They started to stagger out of the elevator. They looked so hungrey. thier arms flailed towards the three living beings that has realesed them from their dark cage.
Harry and the others werent ready to become food yet though. Instead they turned and ran for the door to the stairs.
Bur as soon as Harry opened the door he realised that the stairs were also full of flesh-eating freaks,
A hand reached through the crack of the door to Harry's face but he moved it aside. Through the crack in the door, all he could see were zombies. Zombies on top of each other trying to climb the stairs. A few more reached they the door. but Harry closed it and turned to his friends.'
"Cant go there..."
The zombies from the elevator had closed in.Harry and the others made a mad dash away from them just as the door to the stairs gave way and the pile of zombies from there started to pour out into the hallway.
Harry, Emma, and Rob darted past the lone zombie with the knife in head and ran to the other end of the hall. They breathed heavily and watched as the parade made its way to them down the hall.
"What are we going to do??" Emma nearly cried out.
"W-we can't kill them all...can we Harry??" Rob asked.
Harry let out a deafeted kind of laugh."Havent got enough bullets left to kill half of them."
Emma looked around. "We could go down one of these hallways you guys."
"Yea..."Harry nooded. "But I got a feeling all we'll find is more of them." He pointed towards the massive amount of zombies that were making their way towards them.
"Well we cant just stand here and wait for them to get us!" Emma yelled.
The horde of zombies grew closer as Harry nodded. The three started off down another hallway.
A couple zombies dotted the hall but were easy to dodge. Rob had a hard time not looking at them. He kept imagining the things he saw in the dark. Cold beads of sweat fell of his body as they ran down the hall.
Emma turned to see that the horde had followed them down the new hallway but were far away and not really a problem.
Harry searched the faces of some of the zombies they passed, wondering if he would recognize any and hoping he wouldnt.
They stopped at the end of the hall with a sudden halt of urgency.
"Holy Shit!" Harry yelled out "I thought there were stairs down this end too!"
Emma ran to a door and pulled on it but it wouldnt budge. Rob tried another as he watched the zombies stagger towards them from the other end of the hall.
The door was locked.
"Oh this is just wonderful" Harry said as he wiped the sweat of his red forehead.
"Look" Emma cried and ran an elevator door.
"Oh thats no good....its the lab elevator...you need an access code to enter. You got it?" Harry said, defeated.
Emma slumped against the wall. "No..." She turned her head and saw a couple corpses in the corner of the hall. The site disgusted her but she felt releived that they werent "alive"
The people were hulded together with frightened, struggled looks on their dead faces.
Chuncks of skin were eaten from their bodies and their clothes were a tattered, bloddy mess.
Emma noticed for the first time that the hall was full of the dead, and not just the living dead.
She looked down the hall and saw the others drawing ever closer. Rob still kept trying doors but couldnt find a one that would open. He faced his fears enough to get within 8 feet of the approching zombies before running back to the other two.
"What are we gonna do?" He said between gasps of heavy breathing.
Harry, still wiping his head, eyes transfixed on the demons that were closing in.
"what can we do?" Harry said, sending Rob a sharp look.
Emma went to elevator. "we have to try this!"
"No! We dont know the code and Im not lifting anyones spirits, including my own in beleiving we can do it!"
Emma ignored him and began pressing buttons.
Harry rolled his eyes. "Oh yea, thats gonna work, do you even know how many digits it needs?"
Emma stopped. "Ok...so we die then? Thats it? we just die?"
Harry took his gun out and held it firmly infront of him.
Bang.
He fired off every round in the gun. The first few zombies in the group feel to their knees and the fell to the ground completly.
"There....I tried." Harry said hurling the gun at the zombies.
"Stop! We might need that!" Rob said making a halfhearted dive for the gun. The gun hit a zombie hard in the head and stayed imbeded in there.
"Need it? We're going to die idiot."
"You sound like you want to die Harry" Emma said confrontedly as she slumped against the wall.
"Are you people insane? We have no chance of surviving." Harry said in a frustated tone.
Rob begam banging buttons on the elevator. "Come on! Work!"
He kicked the elevator door. The metal made a load banging sound as rob let out a sound of pain.
"Just leave it alone Rob....." Harry said, watching the zombies advance from only 5 feet away.
As Rob brought his foot down, he stepped on something, he instictivly shot his foot back up and looked down at what it was.
It was a screwdriver. He bent down and picked it up. It was dull at the tip and bloody all over. He dropped in and it made a clanging sound.
"What was that?"Harry asked. Rob bent down. "Just this scre..."
Rob's eyes widened as he stared at the wall next to the door to the elevator.
"Hey...you may want to see this.." Rob stattered.
"What?" they both said in unision and walked over. Emma took a glance back at the zombies that were 3 feet away.
There were tiny words scratched into the wall. Rob read them outloud.
"Hell, The number for hell, for evil and for the devil him or herself is 666. Oh yes, it is but the number to hell is 3476. Enjoy the visit."
Emma shot up and typed crazily at the control panel next to the elevator.
Harry held his breath as the elevator began to whirl into life.
"Expect the worst..." He muttered.
The doors to the lab began to open.....
The light is washed over the face of Emma as she types in the pascode to activate the locks in the building.
"Ok were done, It says that everything activated by the lockdown will now unlock,including the lights! Althogh it may take some time saince everything has been inactive for so long."
