Chapter 3: Time To Move

The group finally got their baring's straight and Troy stood up "Okay lets get moving if we stay here any longer we will just draw more attention to this room and building."

The group walked out of the hospital and started walking down what looked like a pretty uncrowded street there were a couple of zombies in the road but nothing they couldn't handle,

Then James heard something in the hospital so he turned around and saw what looked like a dog but it's face was missing and James panicked "Crap, guys a freaking zombie dog." and on that note the dog sprung foward and started to run near the group.

Jacob rose he's gun but he started to think about the zombie he shot in front of Troy and he panicked he couldn't see straight so he lowered his gun and when he did that, the dog lunged at the woman who James comforted in the hospital

"Noooo!" cried out James as he rose his gun and shot the dog in the mid-section and it just kept gnawing on the poor girls collar bone section, then another shot rang out and the bullet pierced through the eye of the dog and came out the other side of it's head near the jaw making it fly off in hundreds of pieces.

Troy lowered his gun which was still smoking from the barrel "Zombie dogs and zombies are the same shoot them in the head and they go down."

Jacob looked at his gun and just sulked he could have stopped the dog from getting chomped on but he turned into the Jacob he has always been and he panicked.

James kneeled down next to the girl who at the moment did not look very well she was bleeding from her neck and her breath was shortening "I'm sorry I told you everything was going to be okay then I let you get attacked like this and... and... I'm sorry" he managed to choke out the rest of what he wanted to say before he started to cry.

oOo

They all walked towards the entrance of the courtyard that lead to the police station there had been few words since they were last attacked James looked more depressed than ever during this whole thing, he couldn't help but keep blaming himself for what had happened to the girl,

"Hey we're finally here, are you going to be alright." Ean said in a soft tone putting his hand on James' shoulder, it was hard for him to see his cousin like this.

"It's just... I told her everything was going to be alright... but it's not she's dead... dead because of me." James said as he looked down at the ground and tears started to roll down his face. Ean just patted him on the back and said there was nothing he could've done.

Troy looked back and was going to tell James and Ean to hurry up but he saw that they were talking and by the look on James' face said they were hitting a sore subject so he looked at the court yard and saw it was pretty empty and empty meant safe so let them be.

Jacob sat on a bench in the courtyard and he just couldn't help but feel like crap I mean he could have just shot the dog but he panicked, he just sat on the bench thinking of that moment and he rose his gun to his left temple and started to pull the trigger when his hand was forcefully pulled away

"That's not the way to end thing's trust me I thought of it to but it's not worth it." he looked up to see Troy standing above him with a look of concern on his face

"you don't know what it's like to feel like this..." Jacob just stared at the ground and trailed off.

"I do know what it's like I chose to lead you guys but in the hospital I didn't think I could handle it anymore and I thought the same thing as you but then I looked around at the people I was leading I decided that a bullet to the head would be the easy way out but I couldn't do it, so I decided on one thing I decided to get all of you out of here but I need your help and the help of the other two if this is going to work, so please help me."

Jacob looked up at Troy "You deserve to be a cop more than anyone I know your just that good at helping people."

oOo

The group finally all got to the front door of the RPD building and they were all just wondering one thing and that was what exactly awaits for them behind this door, Troy reached out and grabbed the door knob turned it and opened the door.

As he entered the door way he smelt something that was very familiar it was the smell of death and it was very pungent he feared that his group might not make it any farther than this building but he wasn't going to give up no matter what the challenges that awaited him in this building life or death these people will live beyond today I promise that much to myself... life or death.
