Chapter 5: Don't worry I'll be Fine
As the chopper lifted off the ground Cody checked his ammo supply. "This should last me a few days" Cody thought
Shaun was holding his cricket bat so tight his knuckes turned white. He remember how much was taken from him, his mom, his best friend, his step dad, and even that twat David. He was worried that Liz would be taken from him this time.
It ws an estimated 2 hours before they would touch down on the out skirts of Hell on Earth. They all tried to keep smiles on each others face. It didn't help that they just leaned that the town's poplutaion was 1,600. That was 1,595 more then them. They guessed that maybe 10 to 15 people at least would still be alive. They had an extra duffle bag of 9mm berettas for survivors.
Cody no longer wore his cowboy hat. Instead he wore an orange bandana. This was the same bandana that he was wearing when Abby first kissed him. The cowboy hat was now on Shaun's head who was pretending to be Clint Eastwood. The impersonation was crappy but he still put smiles on everyone's face, even the pilot who was trying not to laugh had a smirk on his face.
Cody looked over at Abby and he for the first time since the outbreak he became scared. Not because he was going into a town full of zombies, but he was scared for Abby. If he ever had the choice to shoot her or have her bite him he didn't know what he'd choose. " Everybody." Cody said this now looking at the floor. They all looked up. "If I get bit promise me you'll shoot me." He then looked up and gazed into everyone's eyes seeing that his words struck them hard. Cody was asking them to kill him if he was bit that they would put a bullet in him.
It was quiet for most of the rest of the trip. Everybody just looked at each other and tried to run out the images of there helpless friend on the ground and having to shoot them. Shaun finally spoke up. " Stick together while in buildings and in alley ways. Then spread out on streets."
Liz was thinking about how they were gonna get all the survivors together. "How are we gonna get all the survivors together?"
" Well we'll just keep shouting and people will hear and they'll comeout there doors Duh Liz." Shaun said
"No we can't do that." Liz retorted
"Why not?" Shaun asked with a puzzled look upon his face.
"If we do that all of the zombies will hear us."
"That's what we have weapons for!"
" We don't have enough ammo for sixteen thousand people!"
Shaun sat quietly now thinking of a way to justify his his yelling method.
"Radio." Abby spoke up
That's why Cody liked Abby so much everything that cameout of her mouth was well thought out. "That works, maybe a broadcast over the radio and if we can find the cop staion we can steal a SWAT van and mega phone and do Shaun's idea too." Taylor said
Shaun looked up at Taylor "YEAH! See my idea wasn't that stupid."
"We are two minutes away from the LZ" the pilot yelled into the cabin.
Everyone's heart started to beat extremely fast. They all sat in silence as the chopper finally touched down.
As they were all unloading Cody took Abby aside "If anything happens to you I'll go crazy so please don't die."
Abby grabbed Cody by the shoulders and pressed her face against his giving him a long kiss. "Don't worry I'll be fine."
