Chapter Two: A Bloody Morning

It was late at night when Kelly struggled to open the door that lead into the kitchen. Her hands were covered in blood as she twisted the knob and let herself into the house. She felt dizzy, sick and oddly hungry as she took a few steps into the kitchen. It was pitch black and she felt around for a light switch not knowing that she was smearing blood everywhere. She lean against the counter trying to remember what happened as she bled.

She was just jogging like she normally did, but she took a wrong turn when she was trying to return back to her boyfriend's friend's house. She stopped to take a rest when she heard something behind her. She turned around to see a man walking toward her.

"Hey mister, do you know where this place is, I'm lost" she shouted

The man didn't say anything but kept advancing toward her. In the moon light she saw something dripping onto the street that was coming out of the man.

"Are you ok, you seem to be peeing in your pants" she said, getting a little uncomfortable.

Her eyes grew wide when she saw that the man was missing part of his face and his mouth was dripping with blood. She screamed and ran with the man following her while moaning. She looked back and smiled when she realizes she was outrunning him.

She slowed down her pace to see if the man was still following her. She was about to laugh knowing that she escaped, but suddenly her arm was grabbed and she felt a horrible pain. She turned her head to see a woman biting her in her arm and tearing flesh off, and she screamed. Blood poured out of her wound as Kelly yakked her arm away. The woman came after her again and bit her in the waist. Kelly kicked the woman in the stomach then again in the face to get her off of her. She held her hand tight against her wound as she tried to run away.

She headed up the street that she was surely will take her back to the house only stopped to see three people coming after her. Each one was in bad shape and covered in blood. Kelly started to cry as she ran off to another direction to get away from those people. Blood dripped down her chest and soaked into her shirt. She continued to run till she found the house.

Kelly slowly lower herself to the floor, she seems to have lost her voice because she couldn't yell for help even through her boyfriend and the others were just in the bed rooms. Blood poured out of her wounds and spread across the kitchen floor. She took two deep breaths then her eyes rolled back and died. The sun begins to rise.

Matt woke up and got off the couch he was sleeping on and started walking to the bathroom. He stopped when he stepped on a warm, wet spot on the carpet. He lifted his foot to see it was covered in red paint stuff. He heard what it seems to be a low moan and looked up to see Kelly slowly walking out of the kitchen. Matt went numb and lost his words when he saw large pieces of flesh missing off of Kelly with blood pouring down from her wounds and mouth. She growled and ran toward him. Matt couldn't move.


I suddenly woke off when I heard someone slamming door then locking it. I got up quickly to see Matt breathing rapidly while leaning against the door.

"Matt, what the hell are you doing in my room" I shouted then I noticed blood running down both of his arms. His shoulders were bleeding and his shirt was torn a bit.

I jumped out of the bed and ran to him "Matt, what happened" I said

"Kelly! I was just waking up when I saw Kelly walking over to me. I was shock because she was covered in blood but then she tried to bite me. She jammed her nails into my shoulders and I kicked her in the stomach then I ran into your room and-

Before he could finish, a fist rammed into my door and Kelly showed her face through the hole. She looked . . . well . . . dead and her mouth was covered in blood. She roared and tried to get inside my door.

Matt and I screamed as we back away from the door.

"I think she's a Zombie!" Matt shouted right in my ear

From the way she looks I believed him.

"Wow, so this is what one look like" I said calmly

Kelly punched another hole into my door and then another. Blood dipped from her body as she tried to force herself in.

"ERIC HELP!" I shouted knowing that the walls were paper thin.

Kelly was just half way in when she was hit in the head with a bat. She moved away form the door and I saw my brother walking past my door and continue to hit her with the bat. Marc popped his head in

"Are you two ok" he asked

"She a Zombie" Matt said shaking and wouldn't let go of my shirt.

I ran over and unlocked whatever was left of my door and open it. I nearly blushed because Marc was wearing nothing more then a pair of blue jeans. I turned my head to Kelly dead on the floor with her head busted open where my brother hit her with the bat. A small smile came to my face before checking on my brother.

"Eric, are you ok" I asked

"Yeah" he said "I'm just trying to figure it out what I just did"

"You killed my girlfriend" Marc said

"He killed a Zombie, who attack me" Matt said pressing a hand on one of his wounds.

We exit the hallway and the four of us were horrified from what we saw.

Blood was everywhere in the kitchen and the living room. There were puddles of it on the floor and smeared on the walls. I ran into the living room and turned on the T.V. to see if the news was on.

"Whatever is happening in the East had made its way into the city of Yuma. Hundreds of people are being attack or killed by some would say form the dead that were brought back to life." the News reported said "At this time we advise you to stay in you homes and lock up tight."

"Bianca put some shoes on" Eric said

"Why"

"We're leaving and find a safe place to stay before these things get to our house."

I nodded and noticed that Matt has gotten really pale.

"Marc, help me get the guns" Eric said

I quickly put on some shoes and some clothes as I continue to watch the news. They were showing a map of the city with red dots on them to show where the zombies were at. Matt still seems a little pale and I placed my hand on his shoulder "it's going to be ok"

He tried to smile when we heard an explosion outside. We ran to the living room and peaked through the blinds of the window.

"Shit, they're out there" I said

From across the street, a house was burning up and two people came out of the house on fire. They fell to the floor to tried to put out the flames and when they did zombies started to attack them. Five other zombies roam around the street to see which house to attack next. I quickly closed the blinds.

"Bianca get away from that window" Eric said

"There's five of them out there" I said

"Then take this" Eric said, shoving the bloody bat into my hands.

Marc handed Matt a small gun. I found it neat that my father collected guns for a living. "Do you know how to use a gun" he asked

"Only the ones in video games" he said

"How come he gets a gun and I get a bat" I said

Before my brother could answer the window behind me shattered and Matt pushed me away when a pair of hands tried to grab me. We fell to the floor and I looked up to see zombies trying to get through widow. I screamed then covered my ears when Eric and Marc begin shooting at them.

"Why won't they die" Eric said

"You have to shoot it in the head, dumbass" I shouted as I got off the floor. I grabbed the gun from Matt's hand and shot the zombies in the head causing blood to spattered everywhere.

Eric grabbed me by the hand and ran to the kitchen door with Marc and Matt behind me.

"Ok we only got one shot to get to the car" he said

Marc got his gun ready and Matt gripped tight on the bat and Eric held my hand tighter as if he was scared. He took a beep breath and opened the door. The car was just down our driveway so we ran as fast as we could to it. Immediately zombies ran toward us from left to right. Shots were fired and I can see the heads being blown off.

"Bianca here's the key, get into the car" Eric said, handing me the keys then taking my gun away.

I grabbed Matt to come with me as we headed to the car. I got to the back door and tried to unlock it but my hands were too shaky to put the key into the socket.

"Bianca, hurry up there coming closer" Matt said

"Shut up, you're the one with the bat, use it" I shouted

Matt went pale as he turned to see a zombie coming toward him only to be shot in the head by my brother. I finally got the door open and with one arm, I grabbed Matt and pulled him into the back seat. I got in as well and slammed the door just before a zombie slammed against it causing the car to rock. I quickly lean over to the driver seat to unlock the door and then the passenger one. More heads were blown off as my brother and Marc manages to get inside the car then locked it.

"Come on start it up" Marc said as a few zombies begin hitting the windows.

Eric started the car and slammed on the pedal. He ran over two zombies as he made a sharp U-turned and headed out of the neighborhood . . .
