Chapter Six
Bloodlust
No more tears now; I will think upon revenge--Mary Stuart
The blood on her hands started to dry up as she walked down a dark alley with an expressionless look on her face. Her eye was twitching and she was grinding her teeth so hard she felt particles on her tongue. She knew what she has to do and tonight was the night to do that evil little idea she has in her head.
She grinned when she stopped next to a store that already been looted and went through the broken window to get the supplies she needed.
For a job this big and this personal, a gun shot to the head isn't enough to settle this urge for blood she feels deep inside.
She looked at her hands that were stained with Jimmy's blood and wonder if the bastard died or not. She didn't want him to die, she just wanted to suffer and live with the guilt and hope he learns the first lesson when it comes to Love.
Love hurts.
She searched around the damage store, hearing the moans of the dead near by since the store was right next to border of the town. She smiled when she saw an ax, a gallon of gasoline and a few boxes of bullets. That's all she needed for payback and to help feed the dead later on.
She was about to walk over to the apartment building where Anna and her cousins live when her eye caught her attention to a dark alley in particular. In the orange glow of the sunset she stared at a dark dry spot of blood that stained the ground with a red trail leaving the spot as if whoever was here been dragged off.
As she stares at the spot deep in thought an image flash before her eyes.
Matt was running down this alley with blood pouring out of his busted chin when suddenly one of his knees was blasted off by a gun. Bianca watches helplessly as her best friend fell to the floor. More blood squirts out of his chin as a dark puddle started to form around his injured knee.
"Bianca" Matt called out to her. "Bianca, help me"
She stared into his crystal blue eyes and found herself frozen stiff. She watched as Andy popped out of nowhere, stared at her with a wide grin on his face and pointed the gun to Matt's other knee.
"Leave him alone, you bastard!" She hollered.
Andy just laughed and fired. The sounds of the bullet cutting through flesh and blood gushing out filled Bianca's ears as her eyes widened.
The world around her went black and it was only Matt and her there, alone with Matt staring at her.
"I cannot rest til my murderers are punish for their deeds" Matt said, with blood dripping out of his mouth.
Bianca just stood there not knowing what to say. A few tears she didn't want to shed fell down her cheek. "I'll make sure your soul rest" she said.
Matt smiled as he as well as the world around them started to fade away. "I love you, my very best friend" he said.
"I love you too" Bianca said then he disappeared.
Bianca shook her head and found herself back in the real world with a real tear running down her cheek. She scoffs and quickly wipes it away. She swore from this day on she will no longer shed tears. Those who should cry are the ones that are about to face her burning rage.
Meanwhile . . .
With brutal force Kevin and Andy finally got Jake out of his room after spending many days and sleepless night in his room. They wanted to go to the bar at the Zombie Games building but it was close down for the day due to a very cruel accident.
The cousins noticed a crowd of people standing at the entrance of the building while two people dragged a body out that was covered in a white sheet. The white sheet had four blood spots in the middle with two small blood spots next to each other around the head area.
"What happened" Kevin asked the closest person he could reach out to.
"Someone was attack and left for dead in the Zombie Games's building" The guy, who looked like he was in his mid-twenties, said.
"Really" Andy asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, it was real bloody too, the person was stabbed four times in the chest and had his eyes plucked out and left next to him as he bled to death"
"Sick" Kevin said.
"But kind of cool too" Andy said.
"Do they know who did it" Jake said. "Or who the guy was"
"They don't know who did it but the guy was name James or Jimmy, I think" The guy said.
Jake grew very pale and started walking away from the site.
"What's with him" The guy asked.
"Nothing, he's just a little spook, he's the little wussy in our family" Andy said, then ran after Jake with Kevin following.
"Jake, where in hell are you going" Andy shouted and caught up to him.
"I'm going home and hide in my bedroom" Jake said.
"What do you mean you're going to hide" Kevin shouted "You've been in that room for days"
"Because we're all going to DIE" He shouted with great fear in his eyes. "My dreams, those fuckin dreams are coming true"
"Dammit, again with the dreams. Listen Jake, those dreams aren't real, they're just dreams, DREAMS" Kevin shouted.
"But they're coming true, that was Jimmy under that sheet because in my dreams his eyes were pulled out of his socket because he wouldn't tell people what he saw" Jake said.
"DREAMS ARE NOT REAL" Andy screamed and was ready to knock some sense into Jake like Kevin did a while back.
"You're just saying that but I saw your fate, it's so cruel because you're going to get the same wounds you inflicted on Matt and Kevin is going to be burn alive and-"
Kevin punched the fifteen-year-old in the face literally knocking him unconscious and giving him a bloody nose.
"He's losing his mind" Andy said.
"Yeah" Kevin said.
They stood there for a minute while staring at their knock out cousin til Andy spoke up "so do you want to leave him here and get drunk at your girlfriend's house"
"Why not"
They left Jake there on the ground never what was going to happen to him.
Jake didn't know how long he was out, but when he woke up it was dark and he was being dragged by the legs. Then he started to panic when he realizes his hands were tied and his mouth was gagged. He looked up at the person who was dragging him and he screams when he realized it was Bianca.
He made a muffle scream and painfully twisted by body around so he could lay on his stomach. He presses his face into the dirt to push the rag away from his mouth. One the rag was pulled away he screamed again for help. He felt Bianca dropping his leg and grabbed him by the back on his neck. Her chewed up nails scratch his soft flesh as he was roughly tossed like a doll back to the dirt. He bit his tongue and tasted blood in his mouth but he ignored it when he was an ax shining in the moonlight next to him.
"If you scream one more time, I'll chop you legs off" Bianca said in an angry tone.
Jake started to cry "Please" he begged, "please, have mercy on me, I didn't even take part in Matt's murder, I JUST DROVE THE JEEP" he cried even harder as red salvia fell to the floor and sink into the dirt.
Bianca just grinned "so you just drove the jeep huh?" she asked.
Jake didn't like the way she said that question but he nodded. "Please let me go, I'm sorry" he begged. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry" He repeated over and over again. "It was so terrible watching him being eaten alive"
"WILL YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP" Bianca shouted, and kicked him as hard as she could in the face.
The little fifteen-year-old was knocked out cold once again. "I'll let live for now Jake since I'm going to take care of your other two cousins first. After all you're way too skinny to feed to the Dead"
She grabbed Jake by the hair and continued to drag him to an unknown area.
An hour past since Jake's horrible encounter with Bianca when Kevin, his girlfriend and Andy exit the small apartment building and headed over to the Zombie Games to see if it was reopened or not. They took their normal shortcut down a few dark alleys while trying to stand on their own two feet.
"So let me get this straight, you actually watch some guy get eaten alive by the dead" Kevin's girlfriend asked then started to laugh "that gotta be the most funniest thing I ever heard"
The two boys join her in the laughing "Yeah, he was such an sissy, crying and screaming out for his friend to save him" Andy said.
"And this because your cousin Anna couldn't handle being dumped by him" The girl asked.
"Pretty much" Kevin said.
They stood there for a minute then started laughing again til Andy broke the laugher. "Hold, hold, hold . . . on for a minute, two second. I have to go to the bath . . . room . . . thingy" he said, trying hold it as well as the vomit he felt that was coming up.
"Go behind one of the dumpster" Kevin said.
Andy wobbled away from the pair and disappeared behind a building to do his business. After just waiting a minute for him Kevin's girlfriend started to grin. "Let's ditch him" she said.
"Why not, he knows his way to the Zombie Games." Kevin said,
They took off in another direction til they were about a few blocks away from Andy before slowing down and started walking again. His Girlfriend looked around their surroundings and couldn't recognize anything.
"I think we're lost, I can't tell where we are" she said.
"We're not lost" Kevin said, looking around the place, the alley they were in was a little dark.
Kevin took out a cigarette and lit it with his lighter. He took a few puffs to calm him down "Then where are we then" his girlfriend asked impatiently.
"I don't know, woman, let me think" Kevin shouted.
His girlfriend cross her arm and looked back where they came from and noticed a dark figure standing on the other end of the ally.
"Hey, maybe we can ask that person" she said, pointing at the dark figure.
Kevin turned around and shouted "Hey you, do you know how to get to the Zombie Games from here"
The figure didn't say anything and pull out something from behind its back and pointed at them. Before they could figure out what it was a shot was fired and the next thing Kevin knew a hole was embedded in his girlfriend's forehead. She stood very still as blood poured out of her wound then fell backwards to the hard concrete floor. Kevin heard her skull cracking from the impact and he was so stunned that he felt like his legs were glue to the floor.
Finally snapping out of his thought, Kevin started to run but he didn't get too far when he was shot in the leg. He screamed and collapsed to the floor, scrapping the tender flesh on his hands and cheeks. As blood poured from his wound, he heard the person walking over to him with something scraping on the floor. He tried to crawl away when he heard a familiar voice.
"Bad Idea" Bianca said, lifting up something in the air.
Kevin turned around only to see the shin of the ax Bianca was carrying making contact with his left leg. A burst of unbearable pain flew through his body and he screamed. The blade screeched against the bone as Bianca pulled it out. Kevin could no longer feel his left leg anymore.
Bianca walked in front of him so he could see her face to face. He looked up and from the moon light he could see the insane look in Bianca's eyes as she smiles and wipe the blood off the blade of the ax.
"Man, you should really read some Stephen King's books, he really gives you tips on how to get back at people who pissed you off" she said laughing. "Like this one called Misery, where this guy got his foot chopped off for not being good. It's sad when you actually think about it"
(A/N: Misery by Stephen King is a great and jaw-dropping book, I recommend reading it)
Kevin struggle to endure the pain as Bianca bend down and grabbed his cigarette from his mouth and walked off for a second. Kevin turned his head as far as he could only to look away from the horrible site of seeing his left leg just hanging on by a small piece of flesh. The puddle of his blood shined in the light as it spread across the ground. He heard Bianca coming back and pretended to look dead, hoping she would leave him alone and leave, but instead he felt something warm and smelly being poured on him til he was soaked.
"Kevin, I know you're not dead, I can hear your teeth chattering" Bianca said.
Kevin looked up at her as she looked at the cigarette she'd stolen from him. "You know cigarettes are bad for you health right?" She said.
Kevin said nothing and started to shake violently when he finally realizes the stuff she'd poured on him was gas. "No, no . . . please, don't" He begged.
Bianca took a little puff to light up the fire and toss it to the ground next to Kevin. The alley lights up by the burst of fire that engulfed Kevin's entire body. He made a bloodcurdling scream and was in so much pain, he actually picked himself up only to crash against the wall since he was only standing on one leg. Bianca could hear his flesh sizzling and the stench started to fill the air. Kevin fell to the floor and started to roll to get rid of the flames with little luck. His screams could be heard for miles as people from the other apartment buildings started to turn on their lights and look outside. Bianca spotted them looking at her and all she did was smiled "Sorry, folks, a zombie gotten loses from the Zombie Games building and I'm trying to kill it" she said.
The idiots fell for her lie and close the windows and went back to sleep. After a couple of minutes of pain, Kevin finally put out the fire that he stopped rolling around and just laid there. He was charred black and pieces of his flesh started to peel off his body. All of his hair was burned off and large blisters started to form and pop with pus and blood pouring out. He tried to speak but his tongue was burned up so all he can do was moan from this terrible pain and why the fire didn't kill him.
She continues to stare at him, letting this image burn into her memory forever when she heard footsteps coming to a halt.
"Oh, dear god"
She looked up to see Andy standing there at the other end of the alley. The smell of burn flesh, the light of the fire, and the screams lured him here only to find Kevin's girlfriend dead in a puddle of blood and the burned up Kevin that was barley alive.
"I told him cigarettes were bad for him" Bianca said, calmly as she lifted the ax in the air and swinging it down.
Andy's eyes widened when he saw Kevin's head being chopped of in one single swing. He grew very paled and was so speechless he couldn't breathe. He backed away a little, coughing on his own spit and vomit and turned away only to hear the more swings of the ax connecting with his cousin. He didn't want to see Bianca literally dicing up the dead body.
"You're next" Bianca shouted while tossing the bloody ax aside and reach for her gun.
Andy didn't waste a minute and runs as fast as he could to get out of these alleys and to a place where there were people.
"You're just saying that but I saw your fate, it's so cruel because you're going to get the same wounds you inflicted on Matt and Kevin is going to be burn alive."
The sentence Jake said hours ago started to repeat over and over in his head.
"Kevin is going to be burn alive"
"Burn alive"
(If Kevin was burn alive then what Jake was true then that means-)
Before he could think another thought a bullet was fired and pierce in the back on his leg and out just below his knee cap. An image of Matt falling to the ground after being shot in the same exact area like he was flash before his eyes. He fell to the floor face first spitting his chin wide open. He lifted his head off the floor and turned around to find Bianca nowhere in sight. Large drops of blood fell in quarter size to the floor from his chin.
"I saw your fate, it's so cruel because you're going to get the same wounds you inflicted on Matt"
"Shit" Andy said, struggling to get up from the floor. All those insane dreams Jake was talking about were coming true and if he was going to get the same wounds he inflicted Matt then that means . . .
"God, I can't take it, Andy put him out of his misery" Keivn said.
Andy sighed and aimed his gun over to Matt til he was pointing at Matt's forehead. He pulled the trigger.
"No, there is no fuckin way I'm going to die like that Bastard" Andy said.
He gritted his teeth from the pain of his gun shot wound and lean against the wall to support. He has to find Jake and Anna before they end up like Kevin. In a daze, he walked all around the buildings but couldn't figure out where he was. He turned around a corner only to be pistol wiped in the face. He lost his balance and slammed to the floor, hitting the back of his head and was out cold. He didn't feel his other leg being shot.
Jake's eyes started to flutter a bit til finally, he opened his eyes to find himself in the far back of the town where there was not a single person in sight. He has a splitting headache and could no longer breathe out of his nose since it was broken and clogged up by his blood. He was leaning against something and felt something tugging on his shirt. He turned out and screamed when he realized he was leaning against the strong gate that was preventing the Dead from coming it.
He back away a bit when they reached for him with their missing flesh fingers. He noticed his hands were free but to realized he was chained up by his leg left to a jeep that was just a few feet away from him.
"Where am I" He asked himself.
He was blinded by bright car lights and heard a car driving over to him. When the lights were facing the other way, he opened his eyes only to see a black trash thrown next to him and someone exiting the vehicle. He looked up to see Bianca opening the back seat and pulling something out and dropping it to the floor.
"I see you are awake Jake" Bianca said, humming a little song while dragging whatever she'd pulled out of the vehicle over to him.
Jake grew very pale when he realized it was Andy she was dragging over to him. She dropped him next to him and went over to the trash bag.
"Where am I" He asked.
Bianca chuckled as she pulled out something black from the bag and toss it over the twelve-foot gate. One of the zombies grabbed hold of the black thing and started to eat it. "This is where we get the zombies for the games, duh" she said, tossing a few more pieces over the gate.
"You see that cage over there" she pointed at something behind him.
He turned around to see a large cage that was connect to the gate that had a build in stair case attach to it. There was a hatch door that looked like it will open and close by the pull of the rope that is tie to it. "See, what we do is lure one of the dead to the cage, open the hatch to let it in and when they are in we close the hatch, tie it up by the neck and take it to the Zombie Games Building.
Jake stared at the cage then over at her when he noticed she was still tossing black pieces over the gate and the Dead were feasting on them.
"They do like their food extra crispy" Bianca laughed.
"Food?" Jake asked, "you mean those black things was a. . . . human"
"Yeah, what else would the dead eat" She said, smiling. "I figure since Matt was so skinny I don't think the Dead got enough to eat after you FED HIM TO THEM" she screamed at the boy's face while squeezing a piece of charred flesh in her hands. Black blood dripped through her fingers and landed of Andy's cheek. "But thanks to your cousin Kevin, they are actually getting meat"
Jake grew very pale when he realizes what she meant by that. She was tossing her dead cousin over the gate in pieces to feed the dead. He started to shake. "You're sick, you're fuckin sick"
"Why would you say that since you torture, killed and fed Matt to the dead too. I would call it an eye for an eye times four once I get rid of Andy, Anna and you"
"You killed Jimmy, didn't you"
"So he did die then, damn, all I did was stabbed him and pluck out his eyeballs."
Jake shook his head. "This is madness, overkill, insane, and you know it" he shouted.
"NO, I CALL IT REVENGE" She shouted.
Jake scooted away a little as Bianca grabbed hold of Andy and dragged him over to the cage. "You have no idea, NO IDEA, what you took a way from me" she said.
"What are you doing" Jake shouted and got up to stop her only to be pulled to the ground because the chain around his leg was too short to reach her.
Bianca ignored him and opened the cage and dragged Andy in then got out and locked it.
"ANDY, ANDY, WAKE UP" Jake shouted, "WAKE UP OR YOU'RE GOING TO BE EATEN"
Andy started to moan as he started to gain consciousness. "ANDY!" Jake continues to call out to him.
Andy open his eyes and looked around to find himself in a cage. He quickly rolled over onto his stomach, hissing in pain from the gun shot wounds in his leg. He spotted Jake outside the cage calling out to him. "ANDY, ANDY, YOU HAVE TO ESCAPE, SHE'S MAD AND GOING TO KILL YOU"
Andy saw the hatch door slowly opening just three inches and already saw dead fingers trying to get in. He crawled as far as he could til his back was press against the cage's door.
"Let's see what it feels like when Matt was eaten alive, shall we" Bianca said.
"Please, don't, leave my cousin alone" Jake shouted. "Please"
Bianca smiled and lifted the hatch a little more, allowing the Dead to extends their arms further into the cage.
"NO" Andy shouted and started banging the cage's wall with his body. "LET ME OUT, YOU INSANE BITCH, LET ME OUT" He shouted.
Bianca said nothing and opened the hatch all the way. Andy's eyes widened when the Dead crowed themselves at the door while reaching out for his legs. "No, no, NO!" Andy shouted and wanted to kick them away but his legs were numb from the gun shot wounds.
A pair of badly decomposed hands grabbed hold of his legs and started to pull him out of the cage. Andy grabbed hold of the cage door to prevent them from taking them away.
"Please, close the hatch, PLEASE, don't let him die like this, PLEASE" Jake begged and pleaded. More pairs of hands grabbed hold of the teenager and Andy was losing his grip on the cage door.
Bianca jumped down and stood next to the cage door. Andy stared deep into her pale brown eyes as if he could see the sense of hurt, anger, and madness in them. He continues to stare into them as Bianca kicked his fingers as hard as she could so they would let go of the cage. Andy couldn't hold on anymore and was dragged away by the dead.
"ANDY!" Jake shouted as tears started to pour from his eyes.
Andy tried to defend himself from being eaten with no luck. Soon he was engulfed by the Dead with sound of flesh being torn and blood squirting. Andy started to scream til he was choked up either from choking on his blood or one of the dead bit his neck.
"Oh, the humanity" Bianca shouted and started to laugh.
Jake fell to his knees and was compelled to watch his cousin now being torn in half while Bianca continues tossing charred flesh of his other cousin over the gate.
He was in Hell, he was truly in Hell . . .
Chapter Seven: Bloodlust II: Anna is about to learn a harsh lesson for planning a murder over a senseless stupid reason.
