Chapter 5: The Backstabbing and The Lonely
Yugi's POV
I think we did it. We killed them all. Now we have to find a way out of the city. We can't go through these streets because the streets are cut of as a result as of the explosion. We all went back to the officer by the apartment buildings and got in the security truck and he offered us a ride back to the other side of town. We all got in and we rode off. The officer dropped us off by a subway and we ran down the stairs that led to the underground subway. We walked down a somewhat endless path until we came across Mako standing in front of a large, metallic door about two hours later. Joey kicked the door and leaned on it. "So we came down here for no reason?" Joey asked. Suddenly, the door behind Joey opened and Joey fell on his back. "Ow!" he shouted, "Whose bright idea was it to open that door?" Mako went in and we followed. He hopped onto a platform and we also jumped onto it as well. "Wait", said Arcana as he walked up to Mako. He quickly drew out his gun and pointed it at us all. "Mako, give me that key card for the entrance or I'll blow your head off!" Arcana threatened.
Mako took out a red card and Arcana snatched it from his hand. "Have a nice life guys, what's left of it", Arcana said as he ran away. "Geez... First zombies, now backstabbing assholes", said Marik. I walked down the hall where Arcana ran through, which led to a large set of stairs. I found on the floor another handgun and I picked it up. Heh, dual handguns, that's neat. I ran up the stairs it was blocked of by a barricade and broken lift. I found a ventilation shaft on my left and climbed into it. I had no idea where it would me and I didn't care, as long as it led to a way out of this stupid city. I got out the end of the ventilation shaft and found myself in a waiting room with two dead bodies. "I'd better watch my step.", I said to myself as I walked around the bodies. I found a box of handgun bullets near a soda machine and picked it up. As soon as I picked it up, the two bodies in the room came to life as zombies and cornered me in between a wall and the soda machine. I shot one in the head while the other one grabbed me and had me on the floor. "Get off me!", I shouted as I struggled for my life. I found a sharp piece of glass and grabbed it.
I took it and shoved it into the zombie's eye, which allowed me to push it off of me. I quickly got up, got my gun, and emptied my clip on the zombie. I took a rest and drank a soda that was on the floor. "How will I survive?" I asked myself in this corner, "Where are the others? They haven't come by here yet." I stood up, reloaded my clip with the bullets I picked up and held the other gun I picked up in my other hand. From here on out, no zombie will catch me by surprise. I walked down the hall in front of me and walked into the room it led to. In the room, I found Mako standing still. He looked pale, so I shot him twice in the back and he moaned as he fell the floor. I went around the room picking up some first aid supplies and ran out the room. As I ran past the hall, shots were fired at me and I returned fire. "Well Yugi, it seems that you're not so clueless about how to defend yourself", said the voice around the other corner.
"Is that you Arcana? Show yourself!" I shouted. Someone suddenly appeared in front of me and grabbed me by the neck with one hand and covered my eyes with the other hand, blinding and choking me. "Not Arcana. That fool is working for the person who tampered with this virtual simulator. Think of me as a temporary ally until we get out. Now then, I think you've heard enough," said the person. He let me go and stood in front of me as I tried to catch my breath. I looked at the man oddly; he was dressed as a plumber with somewhat medium length hair and eyes that gave away a sign of loneliness. "Names aren't important, so don't bother asking mine," the man said. He helped me up and took out a pocketknife. "Now then, I think it's time we try to get out of this place", he said.
