Chapter: 3 Taking a stand
Hayate panicked as the dead covered his truck with their decaying bodies. He covered his ears to block out the moans of evil. He finally came to his senses and he bashed the dashboard in. Hayate ripped off the cover and fiddled with the wires, hoping to hotwire his truck. "Was it red to blue or blue to yellow..." he panicked, nervous with sweat...and fear. He frantically tapped the wires to each other in hope of causing some sparks. "C'mon...C'MON!" he yelled as he matched wire with wire. Finally he heard his engine roar and he twisted the two correct wires together. Hayate strapped on his seatbelt, shoved the stick into drive, and grasped the wheel...it was going to be a bumpy ride.
"I won't fall victim!" Hayate screamed as he slammed the pedals. The truck dashed out of it's parking spot, running over many zombies, crushing their limp bodies under its massive tires. "Ha I knew four wheel drive would come in handy!" Hayate exclaimed as he blasted out of the parking lot into the street. But he didn't feel right for what he had done...he needed to kill even more to feel better. He did a 360' burnout screeching the tires of his bronco until he was facing the dead. Their recovering bodies rose off the ground and started lurching towards him a second time. Hayate merely revved his engine, taunting the evils. The bronco stared into the eyes of the dead and the dead stared back. Hayate slammed down on the gas and sped toward the zombie crowd. Steel met ribs, bumper met knees, and grill met blood... The zombies were at the point where their bodies were so decayed; their legs were ripped from their hips as they were trampled over. However, one zombie managed to jump on to the hood smashing into the windshield. Hayate striked the creature to avoid being bit. He managed to kick the body out the passenger door, it's flesh ripped from its face as the corpse met pavement. "Shit that was close" Hayate sighed as he left the parking lot, door still flapping in the wind. "I'm going to need something better than my fists..." He said as he roared to his apartment on 64th street. The dead gave up chase when their white eyes could no longer see the bronco. Instead they lingered to the nearest place where they could smell flesh...downtown Tokyo.
Meanwhile at Jack's party... "Hey its Kasumi! Show us your t..." the drunk man was interrupted as Ryu shoved him against the wall. "Show the lady some respect!" Ryu said grimly as he tossed the boozer into the kitchen. "We just arrived and you're already starting trouble...I can stand up for myself" Kasumi sighed as she stared up at Ryu. "Well this was a tag-team match and I tagged in for you" Ryu said ruffling her perfectly combed hair. "I had it just the way I wanted it!" Kasumi yelled, but it was just a mere whisper compared to the banging stereo system in the den. "Well at least no one will hit on you if you look like a wreck!" Ryu laughed. "Just leave me alone, you've already ruined my image for the night...I'm going to find Hitomi" the redhead stammered as she disappeared into the crowd of teenagers. "Yeah yeah..." Ryu chuckled but he knew she didn't hear him. "Ryu my main man! How's it hanging G?" a rough voice said as Ryu checked for whence it came. It was the voice of Jack, the senior who was having the bash. "Sup Jack. Kickass party you got going here!" Ryu yelled as a group of people ran by carrying steel kegs. "Hang out for the night, there's plenty of beer! Gotta go, drinking contest in a few minutes!" Jack said as he slipped into the kitchen. Ryu nodded and made his way to the den where people were moshing to the music. The DJ was blasting rave music from five huge speakers that made the room vibrate like an earthquake. Ryu joined in and started moshing with the rest until he encountered Lei Fang, a bit drunk but she held her poster. "Surprise to see you here Hayabusa!" Lei Fang yelled as she sipped her beer. "Whys that?" Ryu screamed back no louder than the music. Both of them moved to the corner where no speaker was located. "That's better, it's just, your not the bad-boy party-hard type of guy" Lei Fang responded. "There's first time for everything, expect the unexpected" Ryu laughed scratching his head. "Figure so, I'm gunna go get some food, see ya bad-boy!" Lei fang giggled as she brushed past his frame. "Wait..." Ryu said grabbing her arm, almost making her drop her glass. "Yuan says...Hi" Ryu coughed as he looked away from her eyes. It wasn't easy saying things from other guy's to girls. Lei Fang blushed and nodded her head, she had a slight crush on Yuan and she was a little afraid to ask him out also. "Alright thanks, if you see him tell him...I said Hey" Lei fang blurted out as she hurriedly went to the kitchen. "Yuan, man you might get lucky after all" Ryu said to himself as he jumped into the mosh pit.
Back at 64th street Hayate screeched down the deserted street as he sloppily parked his bronco in front of his apartment. He was going to need some firepower and mabey the traditional blade. He unlocked his door and turned on the TV to see if anything had reached the news. Nothing, not even a single report on the zombie outbreak was being discussed on the channels. "Wait a minute..." Hayate pondered the thought. "The whole news station is dead...no wonder there's no reports!" He said slamming his fist down onto the TV. "I have to warn everyone!" he groaned as he made his way to his bedroom. He stepped up to his weapon display and looked at the lock. "Fu-k it" he muttered as he smashed the glass with his boot. He took out his 12 gauge and equipped his USP sidearm, loading up on shells and bullets. Hayate grabbed his kitana and schimitar strapping both to his back. "Looks like I'm going old-school too" He laughed as he loaded his shotgun. But it was no laughing matter and he quickly got back into his bronco. "Time to go commando" Hayate grinned as he revved his engine one more time...
Back at the restaurant Yuan stared up at the ceiling fan, oblivious to the fact that Bass had entered the room. "What the hell you doing staring into space? Start serving the customers!" He said angrily, almost hitting Yuan. "There are no customers!" Yuan snapped back. "Yeah man, this place is dead" John said finishing up some fries. "Well just in case start preparing food and crap! Where's Ayane! The tables still need cleaning!" Bass yelled as he searched for the adolescent girl. "She's...She's..." Yuan stuttered. "Right here" Ayane said walking in through the side-door. "I'm paying you to clean not to smoke cigs out by the dumpster!" Bass yelled staring down at her. "Pfff, you pay me in pocket change. Pay me decent money and I'll do a decent job!" Ayane said spitting on Bass' boots. "You little!" Bass screamed about to strike the girl. The three boys withheld Bass just in time as Ayane walked back to the tables. "Chill man" Benny said as Bass shoved him to the side. "Y'all get to work or they'll be hell to pay!" Bass yelled as staggered back the corner. A few moments passed and footsteps could be heard outside. "Get ready! Some people are coming!" Bass coughed as he fixed his hair with his fingers.
They were people al right, but they weren't alive. The footsteps grew louder and moaning could be heard. "Who's coming? Some retards or something?" John joked when he looked through the tinted window. He turned around and the glass broke as pale arms searched for flesh. John panicked as he was grabbed at; he managed to escape and fled to the counter. "What the hell are those things!" Benny yelled as he armed himself with a spatula. "Stay calm!" Bass said running to the backroom. "Yuan!" Ayane screamed as the zombies entered the place through the push handle doors. "Ayane stay back!" Yuan yelled as he jumped in front of a zombie, only to punch it in the face and get a fistful of blood and decayed flesh. He ran to where Ayane was and she grabbed on to him like a child would to a parent. Benny panicked and hid behind the counter. "Were gunna die!" John yelled as he stared at the dead. Bass returned with a shotgun and aimed it at the closest threats. "Die bitches!" he yelled as brains splattered against the wall. "John over here!" Yuan motioned as he held onto Ayane. John quickly ran over to the tables as the three looked on as Bass blew limbs from the zombie's bodies. "Oh yeah! I knew this would come in handy!" Bass laughed as he slaughtered the endless waves of zombie. BAM, BAM, click... "Shit!" Bass yelled as he tried to reload his shotgun. He backed into the corner and was overrun by the dead. He threw the shotgun to Benny as he was torn and ripped apart by the dead. "Whoa..." Ayane cried as she looked on in tears. "C'mon we gotta escape!" John screamed as he ran for the side-door. "Benny lets go!" Yuan yelled. Benny did not listen and he grabbed the shotgun and aimed it at the zombies, they finished their meal and were coming for the others.
"Eat this!" Benny screamed as he pulled the trigger of the gun. All they heard was a click... "Go! Escape!" Benny yelled as he jumped into the group of zombies. He knew this was his last stand, and he had to defend himself. He punched and tackled until the dead finally brought him down. Yuan looked away as he heard the screams of his friend, he had to shake Ayane off his arm to get her to move from her spot. "Lets go!" Yuan said tugging on Ayane. She nodded and took his hand until they were out into the alley. The three of them could hear the screams of Benny as the dead ripped his corpse. The three were silent and John pushed a dumpster in front of the door. Yuan did the same and he reinforced the door even more. "Let's pray it holds..." John stammered. All three of them were shaking as they looked into the night sky... "It's al right..." Yuan said comforting Ayane. She may have been a bad-girl, but no one could witness an onslaught of evil and walk away without feeling the least bit of sorrow. But they all knew it wasn't al right, and their lives would never be the same again...
To be continued...poor Benny. Perhaps we'll see him again...what's left of him at least. And no, Yuan is not coming on to Ayane and either is she. He was only comforting her and she understands that. Yuan likes Lei Fang more so remember that.
