Chapter Twelve: Jenny's Suicide
Jenny kept banging herself against the bathroom door the whole next day. Although some people hear her screaming and shouting they don't know the broom was about to snap. Jenny stood there; still bleeding from the head, the gun shot wound Eric inflicted on her before she killed him and now from her shoulder from all that slamming against the door.
She is near death but something inside of her kept her going. Her plan must be fulfilled. She looked around the bathroom; her blood was smeared everywhere and all over her body and hair. She was not going to die in here and with that she rammed her half-dead body into the door again causing the broom to snap. She fell on her knees then slowly got up and smiled knowing she was out of the bathroom.
Next step she had to find Richard, he was the one who holding all the keys to the store. She dragged her body quietly through the store trying to find the magazine aisle where Richard and Steven were sleeping at. She grinned and went on her way.
Unknowing to her, Shelly was walking around with a flashlight looking for some aspirin for her painfully throbbing mouth. "It been two days in my mouth still hurts" she whispered
It was bad enough Shelly was in pain but she had to have a few of her teeth punch out by a fat ugly girl. She continues walking til she nearly slipped on something.
"What the" she thought as she looked down and pointed the flashlight to the floor. Her eyes widened when she saw a trail of blood and bloody footprints coming from the bathroom in the lay way department.
"That crazy bitch escaped" she whispered.
Yet curiosity got the better of the blonde when she followed the bloody footprints to see what Jenny was up to.
Jenny looked at the sleeping Richard and a few feet away she saw Steven sleeping, snoring so loudly that they didn't hear her walking over to them. She removed the blanket off of Richard and spotted the key chain holding all the keys to the stores. Richard spent hours gathering them up after that little mishap with Bianca and the bus that other day.
Her insanity got the best of her, instead of taking the keys, she quickly grabbed Richard's head and with all her might she snapped it killing the nineteen-year-old instantly. She dropped his dead body to the floor, grabbed the keys and walked away. Steven stirred in his sleep, he thought he smelled fresh blood for a moment but ignored it and went back to sleep.
Jenny was still bleeding badly from her head but she only felt that emptiness she had always felt as she looked at all the keys. She was trying to find the key to the sliding door in front of the store. She looked ahead and smiled knowing the main doors were just meters away.
(I'll show those bastards, I'll show them all) Jenny thought (I'll be free from this nightmare and they'll be tear to shreds)
Jenny couldn't help but laughed, and laugh and laugh so loud it echoes throughout the store. Some of the people were woken up by that laugher and wondering what was going on. Marc woke up as well and sat up. Something was telling him that he needed to get his gun and a lot of bullets.
Jenny stood there staring at the door that was being covered by a large blanket. She pulled it off and smiled when she saw the zombies still trying to get through the door. The sun was coming up and it was a beautiful morning after the storm had past. She unlocks the door and slides it open.
"One down one more to go" she laughed.
She slowly walked over to the other door, walking pass the soda venting machines and twenty-five cents candy machines. She was just a foot away from the other shatter proof door and by her being there cause the dead to bang on the door harder.
Shelly's jaw dropped when she saw one of the doors opened and ran over there to see who did this. She stopped and pointed the flashlight and nearly dropped the thing from what she saw. Jenny slowly turned her head showing her blank eyes and blood-covered face. Her hair was plastered to her face as well and she was still bleeding from the head.
Jenny giggled "they're tire of waiting"
Shelly took a few steps toward her "take it easy, fatty, you don't want to do this"
"They're hungry and I want to be free" Jenny grinned and placed the key into the lock.
Shelly started to sweat "no, don't do it!"
"See you in hell" Jenny shouted.
There was a small click and the zombies pushed the door open. Jenny laughed as they tackle her and tore her to pieces. Shelly was frozen stiffed as she heard the sound of Jenny's flesh being torn, ripped and bitten off by the dead.
The dead force themselves into the door and ran over to Shelly. Shelly was so scared she couldn't move "NO!" was the only thing she could scream before she was knocked to the floor. She continues to scream as the zombies grabbed whatever skin they can find of her skinny body and tore it off. Blood fills Shelly's mouth and she choke on it till she was dead.
I heard screaming when I started opening eyes and the next thing I knew I felt my arm being grabbed and was forced out of my bed. I saw that it was Marc who was the one holding my wrist as he ran out of the electronics.
"What's going on!" I asked
"We got to run, those things are in here" he said
"WHAT! Wait, where's Matt" I shouted
"I'm right behind you"
I turned around to see Matt running behind me and behind him were the zombies. "Holy cow, they are in here" I said
"We got to hide" Matt said
"Run faster Matt, they're gaining on you" I shouted
We saw Sandy and Meredith running toward us in another direction. "Meredith! Sandy! Over here" I shouted
Before Sandy could say anything half a dozen of the dead grabbed hold of her. She screamed at the top of her lungs as they bit her all over her body. Meredith continued to run toward us.
"Meredith, duck" Marc said
Meredith duck as shots were fired, killing the dead that were trying to get her.
"We have to go to the loading dock!" I said. I have a plan.
Without questioning we ran toward the back of the store. On our way there all I could hear were screams of the others in the store and the moans, growls and roars of the dead. I felt sick and in pain, Marc was holding my wrist too hard. I noticed that Matt and Meredith, especially Meredith was slowing down. I grabbed Matt's hand to make him catch up.
Once in a while a zombie popped out of nowhere but Marc shot them in the head. "We're almost there" I shouted
"Good, because those things are getting closer" Matt said
We made it to the door that lead to the loading dock and swung it open. I ran it with Matt and Meredith then Marc came in then slammed the door. As soon as he locks the dead slammed against it causing the small window to crack.
I lean against the wall to catch my breath a bit, I felt a little dizzy from waking up so quickly plus I wasn't much of a runner due to my size. Matt sat down for a moment to catch his breath a bit as well.
"Now what" Matt asked
"The bus" I said "the bus is still out there"
"That's right, we'll use it to get out of here" Marc said
"But go where" Matt asked
The window shattered by the zombies who were forcing themselves in to the room. "No time, we got to go"
"But isn't the door lock," Meredith asked
Marc ran over to the door and shot the lock off with the gun. He lifted it up revealing the bus smeared with blood and all the windows broken but luckily not a zombie in sight.
"Alright, I guess I'm driving" Marc said
Marc got in followed by Matt, and I was about to get in when Meredith tugs on my sleeve.
"What Meredith, get in to the bus"
Meredith's eyes started to tear up as she showed me her arm. My eyes widened when I saw the huge bite mark with blood gushing out of it.
"Am I going to die" she asked
I didn't want to tell her but I nodded and she burst into tears. "You can still come with us" I said
She shook her head "I don't want to eat you, I'll just stay here"
I gave her a hug "you may be an annoying, happy-go-lucky freak but you were a good friend to have around" I said
"Thanks" she said, smiling a little
"Bianca, hurry up we got to go" Marc said
I nodded "I'm so sorry Meredith"
"It's ok, soon I'll be joining my family and Sandy in the sky" she said
I raised an eyebrow but nodded and got into the busI waved good-bye to her as she lower the door down. I heard a banging sound from the door and the zombies eating her not to mention Meredith screamingI lowered my head as Marc started up the bus.
"Thank god this thing has gas" Marc said
"Get going I think the zombies see us"
I held onto the seat as Marc sped off out of the parking lot and into the town again with a herd of zombies running after us and without a clue what to do next...
