Standing in front of them is four mangled Doberman Pinchers. Wheezing, salivating, and eying them hungrily. Wonderful, we'll were fucked now, it was nice knowing you Candy. Kevin thinks to himself. Im sure they're a lot faster than those f'n zombies.
"Kevin." Candy whispers.
"Don't move."
The largest of the four Dobermans, looks Kevin in the eye, and lets out a deep growl. His eyes are glowing bright green along with the other "dogs". Saliva begins to pour from its mouth, seeping between its barred teeth. The other's eyes widen as they lay their ears flat and begin to growl as well. These things are nuts. He thinks to himself as he eyes the pieces of flesh hanging off the dog's ribs.
"Kevin there is a ladder right in back of us that leads to the roof, make a run for it."
"After you, on the count of three, Ok? One... two..."
"THREE!" Candy screams.
Candy and Kevin both spin around and burst out running toward the metal ladder. The dog's instantly charge for them, claws gripping the pavement, teeth snapping. Candy leaps for the ladder pulling herself up it as quickly as she can, followed by Kevin. The dogs right on Kevin's heels.
"COME ON KEVIN MOVE!"
"IM GOING! AHH SHIIIIIT!" Kevin screams as one of the dogs latches onto his boot, wriggling like a fish.
Kevin reaches for his gun as the dog growls hanging in mid-air.
"Fuck, Im going to lose my grip!"
Suddenly a glass bottle whizzes by Kevin's head and smashes into the Doberman's brow, causing water and glass to burst out in all directions. The Doberman yelps and releases Kevins foot immediately. The dog lands on its neck, dying immediately, as the other dogs step over it and continue to bark and growl. Candy and Kevin both make it to the top of the ladder and climb to the top of the roof.
"Hey thanks:" Kevin says breathing heavily.
"Don't mention it." Candy says breathing heavily herself.
"Boy does this suck weenie or what."
"Did he get you?"
"No he couldn't bite through the steel toe. Though he did put a pretty good dent in it."
"Well I put a pretty good dent in his head."
They sit down and allow themselves to catch their breath. Suddenly Kevin hears a faint voice. He squints his eyes to make out a group of survivors on the next roof.
"Hey look." he points.
Candy looks up.
"There's people over there."
They both get to their feet, and walk over to the ledge. The noises of zombies can be heard all around. Candy looks down into the alley. Its somewhat empty besides the dogs sniffing around and lapping up a puddle of fresh blood from a previous victim.
"Kevin lets get their attention, maybe they can help us, or we could help them."
"Ok, lets yell or something."
"HEY YOU!" Candy yells.
"HEEEEY!" Kevin repeats.
The people's heads turn toward Kevin and Candy as they point to them and run to the ledge nearest.
"They see us!" Candy says as she waves her arms.
The people reach the ledge, looking more than relieved to see a sign of life besides their own. There were about eight people, most of them quite familiar to Kevin. There was Cindy, who he knew from previous visits to J's, David, the plumber, he knew him from J's, and that blond haired colored subway worker, that was always doing crosswords, at J's. Man I need to get a better social life if I am only running into people from J's Bar nowadays.
Other than that there was a blond woman in a red suit, a what appeared to be a teenage Asian girl, a large colored security guard, a black haired man in a grey suit, and a worried looking teenage boy with black hair. The minute he noticed Candy his face lit up.
"CANDY!"
"Oh my God, LUKE!
The small Asian girl steps forward. Her voice is quiet.
"Are any of you guys hurt?"
Suddenly the woman in the red suit pushes her aside.
"Is there any way you two can come over here?"
"Umm hold on."
Kevin runs over to the opposite side of the roof, and begins searching.
"Luke are you all right.?" Candy asks.
"We'll other than the fact that my sister puked slime and maggots on me, I'm pretty good."
"I think we all have had a great loss tonight, but I think if we work as a team we can get out of here." Says the small Asian girl.
"Candy this is Yoko, she's really nice, and she's smart too." Luke says causing Yoko to blush slightly.
"Its nice to meet you." Candy smiles.
"So how did you meet Kevin." Says Cindy.
"I met him at the bar tonight, today was my first day working at J's Bar."
"Ohhh you're the new girl, I uh, didn't really get a chance to meet you, you and Nina left a little early."
"Oh so that officer isn't your boyfriend?" asks Yoko, relieved.
"Ha, are you kidding, there are reasons Kevin Ryman doesn't have a girlfriend." scoffs Cindy.
They look over at Kevin, who is searching through a pile of debris. He begins to cuss, after hitting his head on a shelf.
"Well he does now." Says Candy.
Cindy chuckles. Suddenly Kevin comes walking up to them dragging a huge rusty ladder.
"I think this will do."
"Can you lift it so it goes across?" Asks Dave.
Kevin squints his eyes and grunts.
"Pfft, of course I can." He scoffs as he puffs up his muscles.
He hoists the ladder up on the ledge and pushes it until it reaches the other side, his muscles flexing as he does it. The others pull it a bit, so its even.
"Ok beautiful, after you." he says putting his arm out.
Candy looks at Kevin for a moment. She looks into his pale blue eyes sincerely.
"I don't want to go first."
"What?" Says Kevin, confused.
"I don't want to go first Kevin, Im scared of heights."
"We'll you have to go first, I need to make sure you get across first."
"No Kevin you go first."
The girl in the red suit flings her arms in the air.
"Would you two hurry up, were kinda short on time, just go you yellow-belly or were going to leave you."
"Shut up, bitch, I don't know you yet and I already don't like you."
"Excuse me?"
"Yeah you heard me Rin Tin Tin, I don't believe I stuttered."
'HEY!" Shouts Mark Wilkins, the security guard.
"Nobody is leaving anybody, now lets cooperate so we can get the hell out of here."
"It's O.K. Candy, I'll go first, if you want me to, I'm scared of spiders, if that makes you feel any better, everyone is scared of something." says Kevin.
She looks at him and nods.
"Ok Kevin."
Just as he is about to pull himself onto the ledge Candy grabs the collar of his uniform, pulls him close to her, and kisses him on the lips. When she pulls away he has a big beaming smile on his faceShe smiles back at him and winks.He leaps up on to the ladder and begins to crawl across, blushing. Now that was nice. He thinks to himself as he leaps onto the other side. He turns around looks at Candy who appears to be scared out of her mind
"Come on Candy you can make it, I've seen you face worse things than this." says Luke.
"Like?..." she says in disbelief
"We'll there was that time you cleaned up crusted puke after that party you had, that was pretty sick, and risky."
She puts her hands on the front rungs of the ladder and looks down.
"No don't look down!" screams Jim, the subway worker.
Candy looks up with wide eyes.
"Never look down."
"Come on Candy, I know you can make it, this should be easy, just concentrate." says Kevin.
She looks up at him and begins the make her way across, shakily. The cool wind touches her face as she grabs each wrung of the ladder and clenches onto it for dear life. The sound of the Dobermans can be heard below her and the thought of her falling and getting torn apart by them send a cold shill to her spine. A small tear runs down her face as she nears the others. Kevin smiles at her and reaches out his arm and just as she is about to take his hand, a Doberman bursts through the door on the opposite side, barking viciously and charging toward Candy. Candy freezes in terror and screams as the dog jumps for the ladder.
"AHHH SHIT!" Kevin screams
As soon as the dog's body hits the ladder, the rusted middle of the ladder breaks apart and begins to fall to the alley below. Candy and the Doberman both go with it, the Doberman going end over end. Here I go, Im dead, it's the end for me. Candy thinks to herself as she flails her arms, looking at the hard pavement, and hungry dogs gathering below.
Suddenly Kevin latches onto her hand, causing her whole body to wrench to a stop, and her shoulder to jerk out of the socketShe screams in terror and pain as she sees the ladder shatter on the pavement below, and the dog splatter as it hits a dumpster. Kevin pulls her up by her dislocated arm.
"Oh my God Candy I'm sorry."
He lifts her into his arms, as she looks up at him, pain shooting through her whole arm. Suddenly her pupils widen until there is no longer any green left in her eye as she begins to hyperventilate. Luke runs up to the two as Kevin holds her in his arms.
"Hey George come here, She doesn't look so good."
"Hey don't say that, don't make it worse." Kevin scowls.
"But look at her arm." Luke points.
Candy's arm is tilted at an awkward angle, and something about it looks very very wrong.
"I-I-Im f-fine." Candy says as she tries to sit up.
Everybody gathers around, allowing George Hamilton, one of Raccoon City's doctors, to approach Candy first. He kneels down next to her. She looks back at him with sleepy eyes.
"Candy I need you to lay down, so I can fix your arm, Ok?"
Candy nods and leans back. Kevin immediately puts his hand on the back of her head and supports her back, until her body is touching the ground.
"Why does she look like she's going to fall asleep."
"Because she's going into shock, feel her hands."
Kevin grabs Candy's uninjured hand, its cold and clammy.
"And look at her face, she zoning."
"We'll what do we do?"
"I'm going to have to get that arm back in the socket."
"Yeah I felt it pop out when I grabbed her."
George grabs the injured arm and moved it around a bit. Candy reacts but is slow to.
"Owwww, w–who a-aaa-re you."
'I'm George and Im going to fix your arm."
"K-k-k g–gooood, d- d- do -y-you know -wuh-wuh what y-your d-d-doing?" Candy says very slowly.
"Yes I do, now on the count of three it'll be fixed, one... two..."
"I say, i–i-ii-its ge-t-t-ting a l-lil ch-ch-chuh-chilly to b-be -out here."
Kevin squeezes his eyes shut and holds Candy tight.
"THREE."
George pushes on the arm until SNAP! It goes back into place. Candy screams immediately and tries to leap up but is restrained by Kevin. She kicks and fusses, with tears pouring out of her eyes. Suddenly her whole body goes limp as she passes out.
