The undead had arrived. The rest of the Naja army had not arrived yet but they were soon to follow. The creatures were uglier than Kanex remembered. Their backs were hunched over so far that their spins literally stuck out of their little remaining skin they had. Maggots were coming out their mouths as they ran towards their next victim. The stench of the filthy creatures hit you like a brick wall. It was the smell of death. The creatures were grabbing innocent children with their bony hands which cut the children, and they threw them into the meat carts. The meat carts were soaked in blood and remains of past victims on the spikes which hurtled people towards whatever they felt like. The army had overtaken the clan; it was every orc for themselves.

People who escaped from the undead were running towards the docks where the boat was waiting for them. Many of them did not make it, they were ambushed in the forest by orcs who had betrayed the horde. The others who made it fought their way onto the boat were they would be safe from the oncoming at attacks.

Kanex quickly slipped behind a covering of trees, and tried catching her breath before continuing on. She knew that her only chance of survival now was to get to Marine but she did not know how she would be able to make it. The undead were everywhere and she knew that there would be more waiting near the docks preventing the clan from getting to the boat. She tried breathing quietly but her breath was sharp and heavy from the fright that filled her. She knew that she needed to move quickly because the undead were checking places where any civilians might be hiding.

A large creature that she had never seen before was coming close to her. You could see every bone in its body since it was so skinny. It's skin looked like leather yet it also looked like it was inside out. It's stomach was engorged with who knows what. Every time the creature moved it looked as if it's stomach was going to burst open spilling its contents everywhere. It was as tall as any tree that was around the forest, so trying to escape from its gaze was going to be difficult. Its jaw was exposed and not covered with any skin. It's teeth looked dull which would make it worse for its victim because he would have to sit there and chew for hours before he could chew your body in half.

Kanex knew she had to flee if she was to live. Then she wondered if Marine would have waited for her. If he had left then she might as well give herself up because she had nothing to return to, and nothing to look forward to either. She saw an opportunity and she took it. She quickly dashed into the forest, jumping over corpses making sure that she would not fall. She was about 15 feet from her intended target but she lost her footing and fell face first into a pile of dead bodies.

"General, I heard something over there."

"Well then check it out you lazy maggot."

The undead soldier walked over to where he had heard the sound. Kanex saw him coming closer and closer and knew that she had to stay absolutley still and to not breath heavily or else she was a goner. The soldier had stopped at the foot of the pile and stood there looking around. When Kanex had the oppertunity she took a quick look to see who was searcing for her. To her surprise her persuent was female. She could have sworn that her persuent was male, but non the less she was still in the same amount of danger.

"I don't see anything sir."

"Fine. Keep looking for survivors, if you find any bring them back to my tent. I'm in a good mood and need some entertainment." And with that, the general turned and headed towards the undeads base camp.

Kanex held her breath as the soldier once again approached where she was lying. The soldier looked around to see if the coast was clear and knelt down right infront of Kanex. Kanex knew she was caught. She knew that there was no escape and her fate was to be worse than death.

"You better get out of that pile. Theres a lot of disease in those bodies." The soldier said offering her hand to Kanex. She hesitated a little before taking the hand, but decided she was going to die anyways so what difference did it make. The soldier carefully helped her up and looked over Kanex's shoulder. " We better head to the coast if we want to make it out alive. We must leave now."

Kanex was taken aback at what she had just heard. This soldier that was out to kill her was trying to help her, or trick her and bring her to her death. "What did you just say?"

"Did you get blood in your ears? We must leave now!"

"How do I know your not going to kill me?"

"Please, if I wanted to kill you I would have done that a long time ago. Look just believe what I say."

"How can I?"

"Marine sent me, that's why."

All of a sudden Kanex remembered that Marine was the one she was to meet at the coasts edge, and he was to take her to Orgrimmar. She started to believe what the soldier was saying, how else could she know the name Marine. She looked into the eyes of the soldier and kept her glare. Finally she gave up and nodded her agreament and followed the soldier. "I have a couple questions I want to ask you."

"I will answer them later, for now we have to focus on getting out of here alive. This is going to be the tricky part. We need to get you to the coast where Marine is waiting for you. Theres no chance of us sneaking around in the woods, there are gaurds everywhere, and we can't run around in plain sight of everyone. There's no way of us hiding, especially with the groot wandering around."

"What's a groot?"

"You know that creature that was walking around that looked worse than death?"

"Yes."

"That's a groot. He can smell the living and he never spares their lives. Groots are controlled by no one, only persuaded at the chance of having a nice feast of the living."

"So since you are one of the undead, he wont attack you, and your armies could persuade them to help you?"

"Yes."

"That's it!."

The soldier looked uncomfortably at Kanex. She had no idea what she was thinking but she knew that she needed to come up with a plan fast or else Kanex would be caught and killed, and her herself would be tortured to something beyond death for betrayel.

"Carry me over you shoulders."

"What?"

"Carry me over your shoulders to the river to the west. If anyone asks just say you were ordered to dump a few corpses into the river. The river flows into the settlement near here. With dead bodies floating around it would pollute the water supply. Once the coast is clear we swim to the coast and find Marine."

"What about the Groot, he can tell if there is something amoung the living around."

"I was just lying in a pile of corpses. I'm pretty sure I don't smell alive."

The soldier stood and contimplated this idea for a minute. She tried to come up with a better alternative but her mind was blank. She had no choice but to go along with it.

"Fine. You better not be heavy."
