Chapter 1. Republic of the Dead.
Male news anchor 1: We have just received new information, that US Army have recently found what appeared to be a WMD in Iran hidden in one of Osama Bin Laden's hideouts located near the face of a mountain, further intel shows that more WMD's were at that location and seem to have been relocated, the exact location of the WMD's are unknown as of this day.
Male on TV Program: Terrorism is a tactic used by individuals with specific ideologies. Killing an ideology is nearly impossible. These people actually believe in this prophet known as Muhammad a complete monster from what I've come to understand. And these extremists are to be destroyed before things can get out of hand and they actually do cause some damage like they promise from their videos that they post on the internet.
Female Alien Theorist: The Roswell incident might have been one of the best cover ups by the United States, and people still don't realize that in the ellusive Area 51 is the spacecraft from the incident and the government is using whatever advanced technology was on board to use it for...
Present Day. (Day 1 of the apocalypse.)
Female news anchor in Washington D.C. : There seems to be some form of riot outside of the White House people are surrounding the gates demanding an explanation of an answer for a current event that led... wait there seems to be... one rioter he seems ill, (running towards the sick man and kneels down.) Someone call an ambulance! Sir are you OK?! (the man grabs the reporter and attacks her) AHHHH! *SPLEART!
Female Alien Theorist: As you can see in these photos, it looks like the men are recovering all items from the crash and are what we presume are going to be taken to Area 51. Now the one that captured most of our attention is this one of what looks to be a tube or container...
Male reporter in Texas: We have reports of looting throughout the city. Masses are stealing from small and large stores, ( turns to see the National guard arrive.) It looks like the National guard has arrived and... turn around, turn! (the camera shows a large group of people running towards the National guard.) They seem to, holy shit... Run! Run! ( two from the large group attack the news crew, and run towards the National Guard as they open fire.)
Male reporter in Nevada: As you can see People from all over the city are taking a stand and the police are shooting at the large mass of rioters as they attack the police medical and firemen, we have more information that this is not a terrorist attack but more like a... (Static from loss of signal.)
[Screen goes to static.]
Female Reporter in Los Angeles California: The National Guard has been trying to control the situation of the riots that have been reported all over the West Coast If you listen... Down with the Government! Down with the government!... Uh sir! Sir! (Man turns around.) What do you have to say about all of this?
Man: The government caused this! They are covering up what happened to these "Sick people." They're not sick! They were attacked by the Government... They used Chemical weapons on us!... (Looks up as a military plane crashes down.)
Female Reporter in Los Angeles California: (Looks up as a military plane crashes down.) Oh my God (Covers her mouth.) We need to head over there (Looking at the Camera man.) Go!... Run, don't stop! (Static.)
Male reporter in Sacramento California: The Horror I'm seeing right now, it seems that a large riot has broken out in front of the capitol and are attacking anyone within their sight, police are now using deadly force against the rioters! Paramedics are rushing to aid the wounded from the rioters, My GOD! their... their attacking random people... Oh my GOD! They are attacking the paramedics there...Oh my God they're coming towards us!... GET Back! GET BACK!... AHHH! (The camera is dropped and gunfire is heard as a body falls in front of the camera. Static.)
[20 miles away Dixon, California Population 17,560.]
Two hours ago everything was… normal. People walking in the park, going to work, the store, going on with their normal everyday life. Until a pandemic came upon the U.S. And it's spreading. The Canadian and Mexican borders are being shut down to stop it from spreading any further than it already has. As more news comes in, it wasn't only the U.S. it's in the UK, Japan, China, Russia... everywhere. The dead are coming back to life, reanimated, stumbling, rotting corpses have awakened and are walking on our streets as if Hell is overburdened. The only way we will survive is to fight this nightmare on American soil. It's dawn of the fucking dead!
[Gun fire police and ambulance sirens in the background. People running and cars passing are seen.]
Cooper: Don't let those bastards in! Barricade those doors! (pointing at a door.)
Alice: (Points towards one entrance.) They're trying to come in from over there! Hurry, block this door!
Drake: Use the tables to shield the doors!
Robert: Here! Use the chairs too. (Grabs and tosses a chair.)
Cooper: He's bleedin' badly! Put pressure on the wound, get me the...
[Glass shattering in the background.]
Brook: *AIIIEEE! They're breaking the glass!
Robert: Shit! Find something to defend yourselves with! Hurry!
Bradley: I found some brooms. They look good. Can we use them?!
Drake: Fucking help us block the door before...
[The undead break through a window.]
Brook: *AIIIEEE! They got inside!
Alice: Get away from them!
Brook: (Trips and turns to see undead stand over her) GET AWAY FROM ME!
Steven: (Reaching for a chair.) Move out of the way!
[A zombie stumbles closer towards Brook.]
*BOOM! Clink Clink Cling.
[A gun flash is seen and four shadows appear from one of the doors. ]
Ed: *Cling clang (Aims his MK18. Looking at everyone) Everyone get down! Dan, Jordan, Chris! Take 'em out! (Fires his MK18.) * BAM BAM BAM
Chris: *SWICCCH! (Stabs one undead) I'll take the left with Dan, Jordan take the Right with Ed!
Dan: HELL YEAH! (Fires his pistol) *POP POP
Jordan: Got it (Aims his shotgun.) *KA-BOOM Ka-chunk!
Ed: Light em' up! (Aims his P250 fires at the undead.) *BAM! BAM! BAM!
[Everyone gets down as the four fire upon the undead and take them out.]
*Cling clonk clink clink clong.
[The four stop firing as the last zombie falls to the ground.]
Chris: (Looks around.) All right they're dead, Are all of you OK? Anyone bit or hurt?
Steven: No were all OK. Thanks for the help.
Drake: Yeah, we're cool nigga. (Looking at Ed.)
Ed: Hey, we're not in a gang, nor do I like it when someone talks to me like that, (Starts to lean on a counter and holsters his P250.) don't talk to us like that, especially me. OK? Only they can call me that. (Looking at Chris, Dan and Jordan.)
Drake: Chill man. (Bringing his arms up.) I didn't know my bad.
Jordan: (Examining the doors) Are all the doors Blocked?
Dan: (Lifting up Brook) Yeah, all but this one window they broke in through here. (talking to Brook) Are you hurt?
Brook: No, I'm good, just scared. (Looking at the bodies.)
Steven: We should be fine now that these guys are...
[Bathroom door swings open as a man covered in tattoos and baggy clothing appears.]
Jesus: (Infuriated and aiming a Hi-Point pistol) Who locked the door on me! WHO?! (Walking close to Robert) it was you huh?! You little Bitch! I'm gonna to Kill you!
[Chris, Dan, and Jordan aim their weapons on Jesus, and Ed comes right behind Jesus and puts his PT101 AF to Jesus' head.]
Ed: Drop the gun before I drop your ass! (Pressing his P250 to Jesus' head.)
Jesus: Who the Hell are you? (Looks at Chris, Dan, Jordan and Ed.) Who the fuck are you suppose to be with that skull on that mask!?
Alice: Jesus stop shouting! They just helped us, you asshole!
Ed: Like I told him over there, (Looking at Jesus.) I don't like it when someone calls me that, now drop it! Before You find out why I wear the mask!
Jesus: (Ignores Alice. Turns around and aims his Hi-Point pistol at Ed) Now hold up! NIGGA! I can call you or anyone I want, bastard or whatever I want, alright BITCH?!
Ed: You're gonna threaten me with that shity pistol? Please I bet you don't even know how to take it off of safe!
Jesus: (Presses the Hi-Point pistol to Ed's head ignoring Alice again.) You mean...
Alice: Jesus Stop their going to shoot you!
Chris: (Fires his Sig 226 at Jesus) POP! Clink Cling clink.
[Everyone flinches as the round goes off, and the 9mm casing falls to the floor.]
Jesus: (In pain falls to the floor, grabbing his leg) YOU SHOT ME! YOU... MOTHER…
Ed: (Picks up the Pistol and checks the gun.) I told you. The safety was on.
Chris: Don't threaten any of my friends, you punk ass bitch. (Aiming the Sig 226 at Jesus.)
Ed: (Picks up and starts to drag Jesus) You're lucky he shot you, I was going to kill you. Open a door. (Dragging Jesus to the door.)
Jesus: You can't throw me out you little bitch! (Struggling in Ed's arms.)
Ed: I don't give to fucks about a low life criminal. (Throwing Jesus out, and locking the door.) I never have and I never will.
Alice: You can't leave him out there, he's a human being! (Running at Ed.) Open the doors now!
Dan: By the looks of him he's probably a wannabe gangster or has actually done some crime in the past all those tats and the way he dresses he's no good for you guys.
Jordan: He'll only bring trouble to your group. (Looking at Alice.)
Jesus: (Banging on the door) YOU ARE ALL GOING TO REGRET THIS! I CALLED MY HOMIES AND THEIR ON THE WAY! ALICE LET ME IN!
Ed: That means more targets for me. (Holstering his P320.) And let's hope they bring a body bag for ya too. (pointing at an undead walking towards Jesus.)
Jesus: Alice! (Turns and picks up a rock.) Let me in now! (Looks at Ed.) Or I'll smash my way in!
Undead Female: *Graaaagh! (It grabs Jesus and bites him in the neck) *Splirt!
Jesus: AGH! (Screams in pain and Bashes the zombies head in.) THUMP! THUMP! Please let me in!... God damn it. Please, I don't want to die!
Jordan: (Walking towards Ed and looking at Jesus) Sorry now we can't, you have been infected with the sickness you're going to turn into one of them in a matter of minutes, hours or days. But you will die a slow and painful death or a quick one (looking down at Jesus' Hi-Point) if you know what I mean. (Points his fingers to his head and acts like it's a gun.)
Alice: This is inhumane, help him! Let him in!
Ed: Why? Why did you people lock him in the bathroom?
Robert: He was acting crazy and punched me when I tried to calm him down.
Jesus: *THUMP! THUMP! LET ME IN!
Steven: So I lured him into the bathroom to convince him he was going to lead us since he had the gun.
Jordan: Then why are you defending him? (Looking at Alice) he's as good as dead.
Alice: He's my boyfriend! (Beginning to cry.) Please let him in. I can control him, please! (Rushes the door and is stopped by Ed.) LET ME HELP HIM! Let go!
Steven: You have great taste in men.
Alice: Shut the fuck up asshole!
Ed: (Looking down at Alice.) Just let go, he ain't worth your time.
Alice: (Continues to cry) NO! I won't. He deserves better, not this! (Falls to the ground.)
Jesus: (Points at Ed.) Fucking cock sucker! I hope you go to hell!
Ed: (Ed walks to the door and looks Jesus in the eyes.) I'll see you there.
Jesus: (Gets grabbed by a zombie that bites into his arm.) ARGH! Get the fuck… AAH! ARGH! Splurt! Rip! (Jesus' flesh is torn as another zombie grabs Jesus and bites off more flesh.) Fuck help me! *Bam! (He slams his fist onto the glass door.) Argh! *SPLURT!
[The zombies start to attack Jesus and rip him apart. Ed stands by the door as he witnesses the dismemberment of Jesus' body.]
Alice: AAAAH! (Looks at the door as Jesus is ripped apart.) You all will pay for this! He was a good man, he didn't deserve any of this! We were going to survive this!
Chris: Then go with him. If he was smart he would have never put you or anyone in danger, but he did by shouting.
Steven: How so?
Dan: Those things can listen pretty damn well, their main senses have grown, include; hearing, smell, and strength. They only thrive on one thing that is eating whatever they get their hands on.
Chris: He's right those things don't sleep, they will never stop until their nothin' but bone.
Robert: How do you stop them? (looking at Jesus as he slowly falls to the ground.)
Ed: (Turns around.) Shoot Em in the head that's how, plain and simple. It's basically a movie or video game, and it's survival of the fittest.
Brook: Are you guy's military? (Looking at Ed.)
Chris: Nah, we're regular guys who used to work at this burger joint. Which was way worse than it is right now, hehe. You know getting yelled at by our boss and the customers. He (Looking at Ed.) on the other hand well let's just say he has… street knowledge.
Brook: All of you, you all used to work here?
Jordan: Yeah, it was Fucking hell compared to this, this is only a walk in the park since I prepped for this kind of shit, For a while now. And they just happen to be some close friends. And we're searching for our other friends. (pulling out a photo) Have you guys seen them?
Dan: (Points at Ed.) Like Chris said, Ed has training which has given him the nickname of "El Cucuy."
Alice: (Looks at Ed.) Cucuy?
Chris: The Boogieman.
Cooper: Hey we heard someone crying when we got here, in the back but the door is locked and… What the hell!?
[Cadaver starts to reanimate in the background.]
Undead Male: *AAAAAARRRRRRHHHH.
Brook: *AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEE. He was only a bit, how is he...
Jordan: *THWACK! Thump. (Hits the undead over the head with a shotgun) Like Ed said destroy the brain and you're fine, but it's not only destroying them pushing them away is effective but if they grab a hold of you kiss your ass goodbye.
Chris: To all of you, there is a question we have to ask...(Dan opens the door and searches the back for survivors) who is willing to come with us for their survival?
Drake: I'm staying, the police said to stay indoors until all clears up.
Ed: (Walks over and pours himself a drink from the soda machine.) *Slurp. (Ed starts to drink the soda.)
[The whole group agrees. Dan walks to the back of the restaurant in search of anyone.]
Chris: So none of you?
Robert: (Holding Brooke and looking at Ed.) We rather stay in a safe place until the government helps us out. Dude, how can you be so calm and collected?
Ed: Ahh. (Looks at Robert.) Don't know. Maybe 'cuz I never trusted the government.
Dan: (Walks back and shakes his head at Ed.) No one's back there. Sorry Jordan.
Ed: (Looks back at Dan.) *Gulp. (Finishes his soda.) We got to go, if there was no one in the back so that means we should look somewhere else.
Dan: But there's one problem. The door is missing. Let them stay there and trust in the Government, even the Police said don't believe the liberal gov we have.
Jordan: Shit that's not good for you guys. You now have two options: barricade the back as fast as possible or leave now.
Alice: (Looking at the group.) We'll fix the back, and you monsters LEAVE! LEAVE US NOW!
Chris: Alright we'll get out, thank you for cooperating and I hope the information we gave you will help you in the long run.
Ed: (Hands Drake the Hi-Point.) This will help you until you get better weapons it only has 7 shots. Make 'em count.
[Chris and the group leave the restaurant.]
Drake: Maybe going with them might have been a smart idea. (Looking over the pistol.)
Alice: No it wouldn't. They killed my boyfriend! They're all a group of killers!
Bradley: Yeah but your boyfriend was a thug, they're just friends trying to survive this shitty situation and plus they have guns, and supplies, what do we have? Brooms and kitchen knives for protection? We're not going to make it far if we are to live. We have to group up with stronger people. (Points at Chris and the rest of the group.)
Drake: She is right. To a point, but you do make a great point...
Robert: (Walking towards the back room.) There's nothing strong or heavy enough to block the hole with, there's only boxes! (kicking a box)
Alice: *Sniff (Looks at Drake.) I don't know…*Sniff but I think I recognise the one guy that killed Jesus. *Sniff I just don't know where. (Wipes her eyes.) His voice.
[Zombies in the background start to make their way towards the group.]
Robert: SHIT! (Turns and runs into the dining room.) There on the way, hurry guys!
Alice: *AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Hurry!
Drake: RUN! (Aims the pistol.) *Click! Huh!? AGH!
[The Zombies overrun the group and building.]
Jordan: Huh? (Turning around) Hey guy's?
Chris: What!? (Turning around to see the dead.)
Ed: Just like a Game! Open fire SHOOT THEM IN THE HEAD! (Aiming his MK18.) *Bam Bam Bam Bam.
[The group opens fire on the Zombies.]
Dan: Shit I'm out! (Checking his bag.)
Jordan: SAME HERE! RE-LOADING! (Grabbing an extra mag.)
Chris: Take them out the hard way guys!
[The group takes out bats, knives and machetes to fight the zombies.]
Ed: (Taking out his knife.) Theirs to many of them! (Looking around.)
Chris: FUCK! Jordan! Do you still have it?
Jordan: The pipe bomb?! Hell yeah I do!
Chris: Try to use it! Let's run past the Gas station and into the fields! Hoard them in the gas station!
[The group runs toward the gas station and the zombies follow.]
Jordan: Now?! (Lighting the bomb.)
Chris: NOW! (Hitting a zombie with his bat.)
Jordan: (Throws the bomb at the hoard of zombies in the gas station) Get Down guys! Fire in the hole!
*BWWWWWOOOOOOOM! FAWOOOOOOOOOOSH!
[The gas station explodes. And an incoming Blackhawk helicopter sees the explosion from afar.]
Blackhawk pilot 1: Sergeant! We have an explosion to our right!
Blackhawk pilot 2: We have four survivors down there should we help?
Sgt. Morales: Any of those things close by?
Blackhawk pilot 2: We got a couple of tangos closing in to the survivors Sergeant.
Sgt. Morales: Alright gear up men were rescuing a small group! (talking to the pilot) Get us close to them!
Blackhawk pilot 1: YES SERGEANT!
[Ed on the floor, Ears ringing from explosion. And slowly regains his vision and see's the Black hawk.]
*BLAM! FWWWWWOOOOOOOSSSSSSH!
Blackhawk pilot 2: RPG!
*KA-BOOM!
Chris: What the hell was that?!
Jordan: Protesters! Incoming! (Shooting in the direction of the rioters.)
[The Blackhawk starts to crash near the gas station.]
Ed: What's going on?! (Shakes his head.)
Jordan: Where the fuck did they get an RPG!
Dan: Fall back guys! The chopper went down! Back to the restaurant!
[The group goes running to the restaurant as the blackhawk crashes near the road.]
Ed: Check the wreck there could be survivors! Hurry the rioters are coming!
[The rioters start to invade the area. And begin to fire on the group and zombies.]
Chris: Found a survivor guys! Hurry, get him up (lifting up the Sgt. Morales)
Dan: *CHINK KLANK! (Mounting the M240 Machine Gun on the blackhawk) I got the gun, get him out of here I'll cover you guys! (Starts to fire on the rioters.)
Ed: Inside hurry! Shit! (A zombie grabs him by his gear.) Not today! (Stabs the undead with a shard of glass and shoves the body off of himself.) *Thud. (The zombie falls to the ground.) Get him inside, hurry!
Chris: There's still some inside. Take them out Ed!
Ed: On it! (Grabs his MK18.)
[Ed goes inside and takes out the remaining dead.]
Dan: Hurry up guys, they're coming (Starts to run towards the restaurant.)
Jordan: (Looking through the window) They're taking out the dead.
Chris: What happened?
Jordan: Oh shit! These guys must have been the back up Jesus called!
Sgt. Morales: Ugh... What happened?
Ed: Sir, your blackhawk was shot down by some rioters, you're in a restaurant surrounded by some thugs and were low on ammo!
Sgt. Morales: And who are you?
Dan: Just regular people sir, with little to no experience in combat but some knowledge on the Zombies or whatever those things are Sir. (Points out the window.)
[Bullets start to fly as the gang shoots at the building.]
Ed: Take cover!
Jordan: (Takes cover behind a wall.) What do we do!? (fires at the group of people.)
Sgt. Morales: I'll tell you what to do, go to the high school in the outskirts of Dixon, the army has a small outpost they built near the school, they have a couple of helicopters. They're sending any survivors to a ship out on the coast of San Diego, get there before they leave, it's... your only chance of getting the hell out of here.
Chris: What about you?
Sgt. Morales: I'll only slow your group down, you two (points at Jordan and Dan.) There are some guns and ammo on the helicopter trying to grab the gear as well.
Chris: Jordan, Dan go. Ed and I will cover you guys, get the stuff and come back!
Jordan: (Looks out the window.) alright let's go, Dan I'll go first.
Ed: (Loads the MK18.) Go! I got you guys covered. (Shoots at the group.)
[Jordan and Dan run out the doors and head for the downed Blackhawk, as Ed Shoots at the gang and covers Jordan and Dan.]
Dan: (Picking up ammunition and MOLLE vests.) I found some ammo and gear.
Jordan: Found 10 grenades, and some guns. Let's put all the stuff in this hard case and let's go.
Dan: Alright, grab one side and run.
Chris: (Kills one of the gang members.) Hurry up! Run!
[Both Jordan and Dan run back to the restaurant.]
Chris: Gear up Ill cover you guys!
Ed: (Grabs a gun and loads it.) Take a gun and shoot at those fucks!
Jordan: (Switching the shotgun for an M4.) Chris, hurry get a gun!
Ed: (Wounds a gang member.) To your left! We got two more!
Dan: (Pulls the pin on a grenade.) Fire in the whole! (Throws the grenade at the group.)
Ed: Heads down!
KA BOOM! (The explosion throws and kills a gang member.)
Sgt. Morales: Hurry! The extraction team will leave soon! Get out of here!
Dan: C'mon we need to run out of here!
Sgt. Morales: OK, here give me one of those grenades. (Dan hands him an M67.) Alright, go to the school and tell them that Sgt. Morales sent you, I'll take care of them. (Looking at the gang members.) They'll leave soon. I ordered them to pick up the civi's in this area, so move!
Chris: Sir you don't have... (Sgt. Morales hands Chris a map.)
Sgt. Morales: No I'll only slow your group down, go. (Getting out his M9) the map will show you where to go if you need to drive to San Diego. (Looks outside as Zombies start to pill up outside.)
[The group packs the stuff and starts to leave. After giving one final salute to the Sergeant.]
Chris: Guys get by the door, on the count of 3 we run. (Looks outside.) 1...2...3! GO!
[The group runs out the front door and starts heading towards highway 113.]
Dan: Don't look back! They're heading this way!
*Ka-BOOM!
[Zombies are flung into the air by the shock wave of the explosion.]
Jordan: Shit that was big!
Chris: Don't stop running guy's keep going.
[The group managed to run close to a shell gas station and stop.]
Ed: Guys lets find... a car... and take it, some of those things can run, and fast. And my gear is heavy.
Dan: I'm with... Ed... check those cars.
Chris: Way ahead of ya. (Opening a car door and starting the car.) load up the car.
[The group drives down highway 113 going towards the high school. While approaching 711.]
Jordan: Hey let's stop at 711, we might need some food and water for the trip.
Dan: Good call, we can do with what we can find.
[The group pulls over to check the store.]
Chris: Ed and I will secure the perimeter Dan and Jordan search for food and water.
Dan: Alright. (Walks towards the 711 with Jordan.)
[Dan and Jordan go inside while Ed and Chris protect the area.]
Ed: Hey we got some walkers close to the Bar and heading this way. (Lifts his MK18.)
Chris: How far?
Ed: Close to the bar like 500 to 600 feet away. (Aiming at the dead.)
Chris: Don't shoot, they're pretty far away, save your ammo.
Ed: (Lowering his MK18.)
[Dan and Jordan search the 711 and search for supplies.]
Jordan: Found 8 bottles of water, 6 sodas, and a 12 pack of Redbull. And you?
Dan: A case of water, 3 bags of chips, 2 Twix boxes, 4 boxes of energy bars, and a box full of jerky and like 8 cans of redbull.
Jordan: Sweet, enough to last us a good 2 days if we conserve all of it, let's go.
Dan: Hey what about the register? Maybe some money? (Giving him a greedy look.)
Jordan: Money at this time might be worthless, but you never know, let's see if any is there. (Approaching the register.) it's open and it's full of money! Huh I thought it would have been gone by now.
Dan: Let me count it...(Counting the money.) 45 ones, 20 fives, 2 tens, 2 fifties, and a lot of change.
Jordan: Forget the change it will make too much noise. Take the bills.
Dan: Alright payday for us! $265 for us!
Jordan: Got that right, hey how about some smokes? (Grabbing some cigarettes.)
Dan: Quit remember, you and Chris can take em'. Let's go, they're probably waiting for us already.
[Dan and Jordan head outside with the supplies.]
Ed: Holy shit that's a lot of stuff. (Looking at Dan and Jordan with all the supplies.) I'm going to take some candy bars and a red bull.
Jordan: Yeah, Y'all think it can last us one long trip? Grab what you can and stuff it into your bags.
Chris: Alright let's go, we're wasting time. Those things are getting closer to us. (Looking at the zombies.)
[The group drives for 8 minutes when they reach their turn into the school.]
Radio: Solano area evacuation sites are located at Dixon/Vacaville green valley.
Chris: (Slows the car down.) Uh... guy's theirs... A problem.
Jordan: Shit! There's hundreds of them around the front gates!
Ed: At least we know the army is at the high school look, their inside.
Chris: What should we do?
Dan: Let's ram them, pick up speed and mow them down.
Ed: If we at least make it to the middle of the parking lot we have a better chance, but we should find the weakest link in the group to get as close as possible to the gate.
Chris: Hold on then! 'Cause here we go!
[Chris steps on the gas and targets the weakest link. The group makes it past the gates.]
Jordan: Close enough, get out, get the stuff and fight!
[The group gets out of the car and fires at the zombies and pushes through.]
Ed: (Runs away from the car.) Guys! Get as far away from the car as you can! (grabbing a grenade. As a Rocket approaches off screen.)
*BOOM! BAM! (The car explodes.)
Chris: Damn, did the car have a full tank?!
Ed: (Ed gets pushed away from the car.) Fuck! (Falls to the floor.) Guys I didn't do that!
Dan: (Looks at the second entrance and sees rioters heading their way.) Run! (Running towards the gates.) Open the gates!
Soldier 1: What are you guys doing out there?!
Dan: Forget that! Let us in! There are too many zombies and Rioters are heading this way!
Soldier 1: Alright! (Yelling at the other soldiers.) Hey we need back up at the West gates! Rioters inbound!
[Soldiers mount up on the rooftops of the school and pile up at the west side of the gate firing at the dead and at rioters as they approach the school.]
Sgt. 1: SUPPRESSIVE FIRE! SUPPRESSIVE FIRE!, USE THE .50!
[A soldier on a rooftop opens fire with a .50 cal browning machine gun on the rioters and zombies.]
Sgt. 1: THOSE FUCKERS ARE BEING TAKEN OUT BY THE DEAD! HOLD YOUR FIRE LET THEM FIGHT THEM SELVES!
Chris: Hey thanks for helping, Sgt. Morales told us to come here. He said there were some choppers that could take us to safety?
Soldier 1: Yeah where are loading some of the last one's now, but we're going to wait until all the rioters are taken care of. Where's Sgt. Morales?
Soldier 2: SHIT THE RIOTERS ARE WINNING! THEY ALMOST KILLED ALL THE ZOMBIES!
Sgt. 1: ALRIGHT FIRE! DON'T LET A SINGLE BASTARD LIVE!
[A fire fight starts between the Soldiers and the rioters as more of the undead head towards the fire fight.]
Soldier 1: You four! Get to safety, go inside a building and take cover! Those rioters have killed too many soldiers since this happened. I don't need civilian casualties today!
Ed: We can.
Soldier 1: No! It's too dangerous to go now... (The soldier is shot by rioter) Fuck!
[Rioters Chanting "Fuck the Government!"]
Soldier 1: (Gets on the radio.) You have permission to engage the rioters! We've been told and we have declared Martial Law!
Chris: Move, go to safety!
[Chris runs towards the building as Jordan and Dan run towards the helicopters.]
Ed: (Looks over his shoulder and sees a wounded soldier.) You guys go! (He runs toward the soldier and helps him up.) Are you OK?!
Soldier 3: Shit one of those things... Ah! It... bit (losing his breath and blood and started convulsing.)
Ed: (Under his breath.) Sorry. (The soldier slowly dies, Ed grabs his pistol and shoots the soldier in the head. Ed starts to drag the body and search it for ammunition and any info.)
Chris: Ed! Over here, hurry there inside!
[Ed runs toward the building carrying six magazines and a map/intel. from the soldier.]
Chris: Come on! Shield the door!
Ed: Where are Jordan and Dan?
Chris: They got into a chopper and are taking off. They're safe, they're heading towards San Francisco.
Ed: (Looking at Chris) Why did you stay!? You could have gone with them!
Chris: You don't leave a friend behind. I told them and they said they'll try and contact us somehow.
Caitlin: Hey can you guy's help us!? We have some people who are hurt and need help.
Chris: OK, but first any of them bit or scratched?
Mr. Nelson: Why? We can just clean the area around the wound and...
Ed: You don't understand if anyone is bit they are infected with the virus and can come back from the dead.
Rose: That's absurd! Zombies?! That's all made up. Sure there might be a virus out there but it's probably something else. Maybe the virus made some sort of new disease that turns people mad, like rabies. And it's probably curable. Yeah that's it, it's probably rabies.
Chris: If that's the case, how come the only way to stop them is to shoot the head, 'cause people have shot them and blown off half of them and they're still coming at them with full force!
Ed: A sane or insane person will surely feel the pain of losing an arm or at least getting shot would make them think "Hey this sure hurts, I better stop."
Rose: Uh...but there has to be a reason.
Chris: See you can't, People like you need to understand this. (looks around the room.) search for anyone who is bitten, if you happen to find one tell us and we'll handle it (taking out a knife.)
John: You're going to kill them! A bunch of kids are going to tell us what to do!? They are not even old enough to take care of themselves! You (looks at Chris and starts to walk towards him) give the adult's your weapons, you're too young to even use it properly, let alone take someone's life with it!
Ed: Hey! (Aims his MK18 at the angered John) back the FUCK UP! Chris, help me with this old shit!
John: You're defending this kid?! You look old enough to use that thing but he's too...
Ed: Shut up. Chris ties him up, (Chris goes behind John and zip ties his hands.) I prefer that my friend hold the gun than an old fuck like you, I wouldn't give anyone a gun if I don't know them or trust them, so relax and follow our rules or I will take care of you myself right here and right now!
John: (Gets detained by Chris.) You don't know what you're doing or saying. You're all a bunch of teens and a psycho!
Chris: (Finishes tying up John.) We know what we're saying, we have seen the dead come back to life first hand! Now please if you all want to live search for survivors.
Beau: OK, let's all relax and do what they are saying, they are holding guns and we're defenseless against the remaining rioters and Them.
Caitlin: Hey! I found an officer. He's out cold, he's not bitten or hurt.
Ed: (Runs over to see.) He looks like a pilot; he can take us out of here safely on the chopper.
Chris: (Looking over the rest of the survivors and sees' a man holding his arm.) Hey, are you bit? (The man doesn't respond) Hey! Are you OK?! (The man stands and starts to growl at Chris) Fuck.
[Ed tackles the Zombie to the floor and stabs it in the head.]
Chris: Thanks man.
Ed: No problem, Chris let's check this place out.
Chris: (Walking towards an open door) Hey has that door been open this entire time? (Looking through he sees a small stockpile of MREs and weapons.) OK, we all got on the wrong foot, Hey Ed I found some supplies for all of us.
Ed: Damn, there's food, sleeping bags, water, everything we can use for tonight.
Rose: Tonight?! We have to escape right now!
Ed: We can't. tTose things are right outside the door. If we leave now they will surely get us all, if we stay quiet, they might lose interest and go to where the noise is. Then and only then would it be safe for us to move out.
Rose: And let the soldiers die! We can call for help!
Ed: They can handle themselves, they have weapons and training we on the other hand, have no training and have a high chance of gettin' killed. Unless you know how to use one of these? (holding up the MK18.)
John: OK, can you guy's take these off of me? (Rustling around the corner.)
Chris: If I do that will you follow the rules? We're only doing this for our safety.
John: Yes. Just get them off of me.
Chris: OK we need your help and yours as well ma'am (Looking at Rose.)
Rose: My name is Rose, and I really don't want to be here with you kids, I prefer an officer or soldier to lead us, not you.
Ed: I'm no officer but I know...
Rose: They're right there! You said you're not an officer or an authority figure, so I don't have to follow your rules. I will only listen to a higher authority.
Ed: Alright, you don't have to Rose, but leaving now will get you killed.
John: Rose, I don't like these kids either, we can leave as soon as it's safe but for now let's stay the night and leave in the morning with me and whoever wants to go with us. (Looking at the group.) Whoever wants to join us is more than welcome too.
Rose: And your name is?
John: It's John. (Extends his hand to shake Roses.)
Rose: (Shakes John's hand.) John, I'll take your offer, who else is going with John and I?
Mr. Nelson: I'll stay and take care of Beau and Caitlin. They are my students. Rose,Chris here is a trustworthy person. I've seen him around town helping out anyone he meets out of the kindness of his heart.
Rose: I don't trust him (looks at Ed.) he gives me this weird feeling. Like he's killed before, and I don't mean killed today I mean before all of this. (Looking at Ed.) I hope I'm wrong but I can't trust him. my gut tells me not to trust him.
Chris: That's enough. *Exhales. Alright, Mr. Nelson and Beau, there's some guns in the other room, load up and rest for tonight. Caitlin, there's some food, help yourself. Same goes for you two (Looking at Rose and John.)
[The group holds up for the night and Ed and Chris get acquainted with Mr. Nelson, Beau, and Caitlin. As soon as morning rises Rose and John leave the small group.]
Ed:Just three days ago everything was fine, the weather was beautiful. But Shit Hit the Fan, A new Virus emerges and kills off many people and brings them back from the dead. It spread into the U.S., Japan, UK, and even Russia. I was told that there are ships off of the coast of San Francisco, the Navy is taking in people. But here in the U.S. Rioters are attacking anyone who works for the Government, they blame this on the Gov. I guess that's their scapegoat. But I think it's punishment for all that humanity has done to this earth, Mother Earth is taking her toll... or even God himself is judging us from above by punishing us for all of humanity's sins. The only good news I got was a big list of safe zones in the U.S. and our Allies, let's hope we get there in time.
