(7:00 A.M Monday Morning)
Mark stared out the window silently, a million thoughts running through his head. The zombies weren't as stupid as they seemed…they just wouldn't leave and now the group was stuck in a gunshop. Sure there was enough ammo to take down an army but with more and more zombies coming there was just no way to fight and the way they keep pushing agaisnt the door. Who knows how long before the door falls and the all get eaten. Turning from he window, Mark walked over to where Sydney sat. The kid was scared…freaking out in simpiler terms. He kept shaking and mumbling about dying and shit.
"Syd, don't act like you never fought before! You've shot plenty of people in the past, right?" asked Mark.
Sydney looked up a frantic look plastered on his face and all he could do was hang his head in shame. "I only carry a gun to protect myself, but I've never shot anyone before…" he replied. Slaping his forehead, Mark groaned and sat heavily on the stool closest to the wall. Suddenly his head was pounding and he felt like his brain was taking a four-hour break from reality. "Don't worry about those things out there, they won't get in." annouced Brian. Mark looked at the man before looking over to the door; it wasn't shaking anymore…which was a good sign. Maybe the zombies found more victims to feed on instead of them? But one thing did't feel right…
"Since when did it get all quiet?"
Maxine who was siting near the door peered out and reeled back in surprised when she saw what was staring back at her…stuttering she ran over to mark's side and pointed to the window.
"T-there's something outside!" she whispered frantically.
Unholstering his gun, Mark went over to the window and stared at the thing…it as well stared back in return blinking every second. Quietly, Mark stepped back and waved a hand behind him.
"Stay quiet…back up slowly and head towards the back." Mark ordered.
Matt, the rookie cop, stood confused at the sudden order but slowly backed up as told…Brian clutched his Custom Handgun and backed up towards the wall as well. He signaled the others to follow him as he edged towards the back of the room. Mark glared at the monster and in turn, the monster narrowed its repillian eyes, watching his every move. Frightened out of his wits and unsure as to what he should do Sydney turned and ran. The monster glanced at Sydney and backed up…Mark's eyes widened slightly and he too backed up. "Syd, you shouldn't have moved!" growled Mark. He turned and ran towrds the back, just as the monster crashed thru the window. "Oh, shit!" cried Maxine as the monster landed in front of her. "Head for the back door!" cried Brian.
Running the group headed for the back door, every now and then dodging the slashing from the claws of the monster. Mark ran to the door and was about to throw it open when he suddenly froze. Moans and a lot of them coming from the other side of the door!
Matt stopped as well and turned to Mark, "We can't go thru this way! Their waiting on the other side!" he replied frantically. Maxine and Sydney were still holding the door as the other monster scratched wildly. "Hurry up! We can't hol him off much longer!!" cried Sydney. Mark shook his head and looked sadly at the group. "We can't go anywhere as long as were surrounded!"
Brian began to sort out their options, before giving out a cry of triumph! "I just remebered something…we can use the cellar!"
Brian ran over to what look like a metal door and opened it…immediately a musky smel filled the room and Mark coughed. "I remebered that the day I bought the store was the day the police arrested some guy for smuggling weapons from out of town! There's a cellar here that leads to the outside, we can get out this way!" Brian announced. Mark laughed before patting the man on the back, giving him an approving nod he walked over to where the other two were and pushed his big frame against the door. "Alright, then go ahead…" Mark said. Sydney who was very eager to get out of the stuffy room went in first. Looking around he gasped as his sneaker slipped into the water…unfortunetely a pipe must have broke and now they were wait deep in water!
"It's pretty dark down here…better bring a flashlight!" Sydeny called back.
Maxine handed the boy a flashlight and watched as her cousin disappeared down the corridor. She jumped as someone put their hand on her shoulder and turned to find matt staring reassuringly at her. "Don't worry," he said quietly.
(8:00 A.M. Monday)
*In the cellar*
Sydney cursed outloud as his head was caught in another spider web. Sure he was scared as all hell but he wanted to get out, so he volunteered. "Better than being stuck with a freaking monster!" he spat. Walking further down the cellar he stopped when he suddenly heard a splashing noise…he shined his light in the direction and waited silently. "Hello? Is anyone there?" he asked. He peered into the darkeness a little more…a sudden swishing sound erupting form the silence. Sydney backed up and clutched the flashlight tighter, his hand getting sweaty. "Please answer me!" he cried. No response…now the swishing was louder. Suddenly all noise stopped and only the sound of his breathing could be heard.
~Growl~
Sydney turned and screamed as his light shined on the face of what appeared to be a monster with a long tongue. Turning he ran as the monster stood there giving the frightened boy somewhat of a head start. As they say, fast food is always good food. The monster gave one loud growl before giving chase…
"Sydney!" cried Maxine as she started down the steps. Running towards the light at the end of the hall, she cried out his name as the light got closer and closer. "Max! Help me!!" the man cried frantically. He yelped as his foot was caught on something and he tripped and fell face first into the water. "Sydney!" screamed Max as she ran froward. She looked around for the man but all she could find was his flashlight. Gripping it she looked up just as the monster came into view.
She lowered her head sadly and waited…tears falling down her face. The Licker hissed and rised up to it's actual height extending it's tongue. Suddenly a loud shot was heard followed by the sound of more shots. Turning she gasped as she caught sight of Brian, Matt, and Mark firing at the creature.
It screached and cried out before falling into the water it's body floating lifelessly in the current…jumping down from the platform Matt envoloped Max in a hug and brought her back up. "What happen to the other monster?" she asked. Brian sent mark a look and they both looked at Max a small smile covering both their faces. "We killed it…" answered Brain. Max stood there shocked before quickly recovering, a sad look covering her face. "Sydney's…gone." She wimpered quietly.
Looking down, Mark sighed sadly…and for the first time since his childhood. Started to cry…Matt loooked up from where he was standing with Max and stared at the ground, a hard expression on his face. "So, he is human afterall. I guess I owe him an apology, then." thought Matt. Walking over to Mark he gave him a pat on the shoulder and nodded. "I'm sorry," Matt said quietly. Mark wiped his eyes, looked up at the man, and gave him a shaky smile. "It's alright." He answered. Grabbing his gun off the table he reloaded it with ammo and looked to the others.
"Let's get out of this fucked up place! For us and for Sydney…I'm not going down that easily!" announced Mark.
Giving the others a nod he descended back into the cellar…followed by the others. Taking the path that Sydney found, they soon ended up at a ladder leading up to the surface. Up above they could hear faint moans and cries of fallen victims, mixed up together in one sick mantra playing repeatedly breaking the silent night. Looking at the ladder, Mark turned to the others and raised an eyebrow. "Who's going first?" he asked. Whistling is heard and backs are turned, sighing heavily he nodded and gripped the bars. "Fine…I'll go first." he replied.
Climbing up ever so slowly, he listened for anything dangerous and lfted the manhole up when he heard none. Looking around, he skimmed his suroundings wearily. *BAM* A sudden gunshot rang out and suddenly a woman in a blue tube top and a black leather skirt ran out of the nearest door, followed by a man in a uniform with the Umbrella insignia on his right pocket. "Jill! We can't outrun him all day. We don't have enough fire power!" the man exclaimed. The woman, Jill, looked tiwce as worried and backed up. "I know, Carlos…but what are we going to do?" she asked tiredly. "Well, maybe we can help?" asked Mark. Jumping at the sudden voice, Jill turned around in circles and looked around the alley. "Who said that?" she asked. Lifting up the manhole further, mark stepped out and winked. "I did…" he replied. Jill and Carlos turned to the man both confused and unsure as to what they should do. "I'm Mark and these are my friends." He announced.
One by one, they came out of the manhole each introducing themselves. "Oh, and I'm Jill Valentine and this is my friend, Carlos Oleivera." She replied. She smiled calmly and got ready to say something but froze when she heard a growl. "It's him…listen, there's something chasing us! Therefore, it would be best if we separateted for now. Meet up at the café!" she cried before sprinting down the alley. "Here's a gift, amigos. Adios!" shouted Carlos as he ran after Jill.
Looking into his hand, Mark regarded the Knife with curiousty and turned to the others. "Alright, let's go!" he announced before moving in the direction the duo ran thru. Just then a crash was heard and the others turn in surpris.
STARS!
In front of them was the biggest monster they had encountered so far…he had sharp jagged teeth, a trenchcoat, a mean looking grenade launcher, and huge build.
"RUN!" cried Mark as the group sprinted downt he alley.
Pumping his legs for all they were worth he tuned a corner and sprinted towards what looked like an apartment complex. "Quick everybody inside!" he barked. Running in they used a big Dumpster and braced it against the doors. Turning they ran for the stairs. "Why don't we just use the elevator?" asked Maxine. "Who knows what will come out! Better safe than sorry!" answered Brian. Spotting a man that looked somewhat like a commando lying on the foor a Grenade Launcher clutched in his hands. Maxine walked over to the body and pried his fingers off the weapon. "Yoink!" Grabbing it she smiled and tucked into her bag.
"Maxine Andrews! You just id not steal a dead man's gun! Did you?" asked Mark. "Like he's gonna need it?" she replied. Brian and Matt laughed as they walked up the stairs. "You guys are impossible!" cried Matt.
