A/N hello! ThePeaWithGoggles here! And welcome to chapter 2 of For Him To Be Blamed, For Them To Fix! I like to thank Stwolfgang 'Peas' Ambrose for helping me out with some chapter ideas! :D he's a great friend to have and y'all should check out his stories! Anyways maybe some of you are thinking if I'm gonna add the new Plant classes to this story, all I can give you is that I will add them sooner or later, their back story will be a little different though. ;) Now, on with the chapter, enjoy!
At the outskirts of Zomburbia...
It was early dawn, a group of Zombies were guarding a small base. Nothing interesting has happened lately, and they were starting to get bored.
A Foot Soldier, who was standing next to the graveyard, sighed in boredom. He placed his rifle on the ground as he laid against the graveyard, crossing his arms.
"Why do I have to take the night shift?" He asked to himself in irritation. "It's not like anything is happening anyways."
Just as he finished speaking, a pea was shot at him, but he dodged, barely.
Quickly grabbing his gun from the ground, he went into a figuring position. More peas were shot at him, and dodging them were no easy feat.
The Foot Solider looked around at all corners that his eyes could see, but the Peashpoter who was shooting him was nowhere to be found.
Frowning, he decided to walk around for a bit. No sighs of the Peashooter could be seen, until he a heard the sound of one going hyper.
He grabbed his rife, firmly with his right hand, while grabbing a canister that was toxic to Plants in his left.
"Come out, Peashooter! Don't be a coward." He scoffed, hoping that it earned the attention of the Peashooter.
For the first few seconds, nothing happened, only eerie silence, but was broke as peas and footsteps could be heard.
The Peashooter gotten a few lucky shots at the Foot Soldier, he growled as used his rocket to get on a house near the graveyard, he came face to face with the Peashooter he's been searching for the past 4 minutes.
"Finally, what took you so long?" He scoffed once more, a smirk on his face. The Peashooter, however, came with no response.
The Peashooter who was currently standing the opposite of him was taller than the Peashooters that he seen before, he have nearly reached the height of the Zombie, which was strange since Peashooters would never reached a Zombie's height, but he guessed that the Zombies were stand corrected.
The intruder shot out peas once again, but was easily dodged this time since the Foot Solider dropped down from the roof they were on.
It was the undead Soldier's turn to shoot, throwing the canister at the roof, he ran towards the small base that the other Zombies were.
The Peashooter hypered quick enough to avoid the radius of the gas, noticing the Foot Soldier trying to run back to warn the others, the Peashooter quickly rooted himself, making quick work of the now knocked out zombie.
But the Yelp that came from the Foot Soldier alerted the entire team. The Peashooter quickly retreated, running towards the direction to where the Plants' base used to be, barely quick enough before the Zombies could notice him.
The Peashooter looked back, noticing that one of the Scientists of the opposing team revived the Foot Soldier just in the nick of time, making the pea shooting Plant growl quietly.
Looking back at the now Zombie filled hell hole, a slight feel of déjà vu ran through the Peashooter's mind, he was doing the same thing he did 4 years ago, but this time it was different, he wasn't running away, like the immature Plant he was back then, perhaps he still was.
He put that thought at the back of his head as he continued to run to the place he hasn't set his root upon for 4 years.
He walked a good 5 miles before noticing a broken down tower, it was obviously abandoned, the remains were pea stains that were probably been there for years now. Burnt marks could also be seen on the ground. There must've been a Zombie attack here.
He glanced around the area before continuing to advance. He noticed once again, another abandoned building, this time it was a house. Marks from ZPGs could be seen around the house. There must have been another attack here as well.
After walking for another 4 miles or so. He was surprised on how many abandoned areas there were for the past 4 years. But oddly, he haven't seen a single Zombie infested area since the little fight he had with the Soldier before.
Shrugging, he continued his advance towards the inner part of what was once Suburbia.
It was already 9 in the morning, the base of Team SF Alpha was full of activity, Plants were running around, the small Canteen was crowded with Plants getting ready to eat or chilling.
The headquarters of said base was full of Plants, checking the cameras and the results of the Plants who are in duty either defending or attacking, which was going smoothly.
"Things are going smoothly, commander." A Berry Pea spoke out, sitting on his chair in front of a screen. "They are keeping the Zombies at bay."
The Chomper that the Berry Pea was talking to nodded, looking at the screen himself. "Great. Thanks, Denice." The Berry Pea nodded in appreciation, making a small smile with his perfectly circle shaped mouth. "Your welcome, sir." Just as he finished speaking, the Chomper nodded slightly, soon leaving the headquarters.
Leaving the room, he took his turn to the left, walking towards the infirmary once again.
The Plants he walked by all gave him a smile, which he returned. Walking for about 3 minutes, he was met with the infirmary's door.
Once he opened it, like the night two days ago, was crowded once more. And, like two nights ago. The two of his best friends were at the end of the hallway.
Once he finished walking up to the bed, he noticed that the Cactus was already awake, but the Mystic Flower currently wasn't here.
"Hey." The Chomper smiled, earning a wide grin from the Cactus. "Nice to see you fully healed and all."
The Cactus' smile grew wider, but she didn't speak, as she was getting off from the bed she was lying on for quite some time.
"Where's Mystic?" He asked, wondering where that Sunflower went, the Cactus however shrugged her shoulders.
"I see you two are talking to each other!" The question asked by the Chomper was answered. As the Mystic Flower was walking toward the duo with a smile on her face. "She has fully recovered from that blast, thanks to the help from me!" She said cheerfully, pointing at herself, amusing both the Chomper and the Cactus.
"Thanks for the help, Mystic." The Chomper said, a toothy grin on his face.
Once they started to leave, the Mystic Flower asked them. "Have you seen Hershel?" The two Plants who were asked exchanged glances. "No, his probably at the machinery area doing his thinking things again." The Chomper responded, earning a sigh from the flower.
It was the Chomper's turn to ask "Why'd you ask?". Mystic let out another sigh in response. "Never mind, I'll just ask him, when he's not focused on building those machines, he gets angry when someone disturbs him." After she spoke, the two Plants waved her goodbye as they left.
"You really should be careful, Sarah, that blast could've killed you." The Chomper told the Cactus once they walked out of the infirmary, the Cactus, however, looked as if she was amused. Angering the Chomper a bit.
"What I'm saying is true, Sarah! I-I mean I really care for you and if you got hurt or even worse I don't know what I would do!" Realising what he just spoke, he quickly shut his mouth, guessing that he was blushing a dark purple as the Cactus giggled.
"Uhhh...forget what I just said, stay safe and you'll be fine!" He let out a nervous laugh, giving the Cactus a nervous look, who just giggled once more.
"Mister Ane!" A young Fire Chomper exclaimed as he ran towards the duo, gaining their attention. "What is it, Phil?"
The Fire Chomper with the name of Phil gave him a toothy grin before speaking. "The Plants' at L.E.A.F said they want to have a word with you, in person too!" The Fire Chomper gave the duo a little innocent smile once he finished speaking, but disappeared as he remembered something else too.
"Only you can go, mister Ane! They said they wanted a personal meeting with the leader of each Team, the meeting is tomorrow as well, so you kinda need to go right now!" The Chomper gave him a surprised look at first, but turned into a understanding one.
"I understand." He replied. "I guess I have to go without you, Sarah." The Cactus gave him a small smile.
"It's fine." The Cactus finally spoke out. "Just don't do anything clumsy, okay? I'll lead for the time being." The Chomper nodded in agreement.
"Then that's settled, see ya when I get back!" He waved at both Sarah and Phil as he headed towards the exit.
"Do the other Plants know of this news, Phil?" The Cactus asked once the Chomper left. Phil gave her a nod and a smile, showing that the other Plants knew already.
"Thank you for taking you time, miss Sarah! I shall go back to my room!" He said as he said his goodbyes, heading towards his room on the other side of the base, making a whoosh sound as he did so.
The Cactus was the only one on this particular hallway, she, too, walked towards her room, a wide smile in her face.
