A/N: I apoligize for the odd spacing. For some reason it's doing that. As soon as I figure out what's wrong, I will fix it.

Chapter 16 - Death

They were making there way to Tom Nook's. Sadly, they came across a few of

their dear friends along they way. Kiki the black cat, Pete and Pelly of the post office

were found walking around aimlessly. They sadly came across Piper as a zombie,

feasting upon Zoe. They were left with no choice but to eliminate them all.

"I'm damn sick of this." Lobo said with disgust. "Killing off my friends... my

friends I've known for so long. All because of you're damn company."

Hades was not fazed by the words.

"Lobo," said Dan, "don't put the blame on Hades. He had nothing to do with

this."

"I don't care." Lobo snapped, "This company is evil. Pure evil."

"If we make it out of this alive," Copper started, "I will shut down this evil

company. You have my word."

"We better hurry." said Hades. "We don't have much time."

"What do you mean?" asked Kevin.

"I told you before, members of Umbrella will come here and destroy the town and

everyone in it. This town will blow up." Hades said, coldly.

"How do you know that?" Copper asked.

"I told you, I used to work for Umbrella. We were told that if an incident like this

were to happen we would kill everyone in the town or city and destroy it. They take care

of this by blowing up the town."

"...This company is twisted." Kevin said.

They finally made it to Tom Nook's. It was not a very good sight. Windows

were smashed, blood stains all around. And the body of Gwen the penguin.

The five climbed through a broken window since the door was locked. "Who's

there?!" they heard a voice snap. They turned around and saw Tom Nook.

"Don't move or I'll shoot you!" Tom yelled. He had a shotgun pointed at them.

"Tom," said Dan, "it's us."

Tom lowered his gun down. He was silent for only a moment. "My God... you

guys are alive!" They all nodded. "Sorry about the whole shotgun thing. This town is

overrun with zombies."

"Yeah... we can see that." said Lobo in a sarcastic tone.

"I had to kill Claude and Spork." Tom pointed to the bodies of their once friends

Claude the rabbit and Spork the pig.

Tom's voice sounded like he was feeling emotional pain now. "And you can

imagine just how much it hurt me to kill my long time friend..." He pointed at the body

of Rover.

Hades walked over to each body and blew the head of each one.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Tom screamed.

"Making sure they don't come back to life." Hades replied.

There was a moment of silence.

"Maybe we should let him know what's happening." said Copper. Hades looked

over at him.

"Very well." Hades replied, and he began to tell what was happening.

The rat had returned back to the Umbrella Corporation. Frail from the blow by

the Tyrant. He trudged himself to the boss' office. He opened the door and was greeted

by the boss.

"Did you take care of them?" the fat rat asked, he chair facing out the window.

"Yes sir." the rat replied, disgusted at the fact his boss didn't seem to care about

the people who lost their lives. "I released the Tyrant and set the bomb to go off at

dawn... which will be in about one hour."

"Good."

"I would like to get my wounds treated, sir."

"There is no need."

"What?"

"There is no need. You've seen too much."

"Wh-what do you mean?" asked the rat.

"This incident could ruin our company. We can't let any word of this get out."

"But, the town... it's... it's going to blow up there will be no one to tell about

this."

"Where's your partner?"

"He... he died."

"Well, that will save me a bullet."

"It... what...?" the rat asked, stricken with fear. His boss turned spun his chair to

face the rat. The fat rat was holding a magnum.

"We can't let any word of this get out. This means that you have to die."

The rat backed away, his face pale.

"Such a shame, too." said the fat rat and he prepared the gun to kill. "After

today's brilliant work I would have given you a raise if I could." He aimed the gun at the

rat. "And don't worry about your family, my boy. We'll take care of your wife and

daughter too."

"You..." the rat stammered. "You sick bastard."

The fat rat put his finger on the trigger.

"You sick bastard!" the rat yelled at him. "Here I thought if we didn't listen you

your sick rules of killing the people of the town you would have killed us and out

families! And it turns out you're killing me and my family anyway! You sick freak!"

"Oh, I'll be killing your partner's family too. Just to be safe."

"You... you sick bastard." said the rat. "You're a monster."

"Die." and with that the fat rat pulled the trigger, shooting the rat in his heart.

The rat fell to the ground and with his last ounce of life he said. "You're a

monster... you're more of a monster than any of those zombies... you're more of a

monster than the Tyrant..." He than died.

"Maybe I am."
