"Are we just gonna lock them all in our bathrooms!" Rachel yelled out.

"We'll figure something out" I said. "Lets all just go back to see if the news is saying anything else" I said as I led the group back to the electronic section.

When we got there all the TV's were showing the same thing. The living dead running through the streets. They were showing security cameras of the dead attacking the living.

"Dear god" I heard Gus say.

We all watched the Tv's in horror. Watching the gnarliest things we ever seen in our lives. We literally sat there and watched every piece of footage they shown.

Then the news reporter came back on.

"Ladies and Gentlemen we're back here at CNN as we have some breaking news coming in from the CDC" He said as he starts to read from a piece of paper.

"They are indicating that the only way to fully exterminate them is to kill the brain" He had a disgusted look on his face. "That's right. Kill the brain. not just the head but the brain must be destroyed"

We all looked at each other at the same time. Everyone looked pretty disgusted and had that look like "wellllll who's it gonna be".

I sighed as I noticed nobody was moving forward with it. Guess it's up to me.

I walked over to the Sports aisle and grabbed a metal baseball bat. Next thing I know Tommy is grabbing one as well.

"Not letting you do this alone" He said as he picked up one and slung it over his shoulders.

"Thanks" I looked over at Jose and didn't know how to say keys in spanish so I just used my hand gestures making it look like i'm unlocking a door. He threw the skeleton key over at me.

"Everyone stay here" I said to the group.

Tommy and I started to walk towards the bathroom up front where the first dead creature is locked up.

"We been friends since elementary school and I always told you i'll have your back even if it's the end of the world" He said as we kept walking.

"And here we are..." I said back.

"And we're the ones doing the dirty work" He said with a serious look on his face.

We walked past the sporting goods section where they held all the hunting gear. I stopped dead in my tracks when I noticed the guns.

"Whoa hold up" I said looking him over.

"What is it?"

"Look" I said looking in the direction of the hunting rifles.

"Shit...fuck this bat give me that rifle right there" He said walking towards the case.

"No...no no no" I said stopping him. "We can't get these guns"

"Why not?" He said with a confused look on his face.

"You see how those things reacted when Jillian screamed"

"And..?"

"Imagine if we fired a gun"

His face lit up and he knew exactly what I was talking about.

"See this is why I like you...You think before you act" He said.

Instead of going towards the rifle he picked up a nice hunting knife and passed one towards me as well. Belt clip included.

I stuck the knife in my side holder and held onto the bat.

"Lets go do this shit" He said.

We walked up to the bathroom door and the thing on the other side was still banging it's fist up against the door. The bathroom door was close by the front entrance meaning all those dead fucks that were banging and clawing on the glass was watching our every move.

"Remind me to cover that window up...They give me the creeps" Tommy said.

I laughed as I walked towards the door and put the key in the lock.

"You ready?" I asked looking back at my best friend.

"More than i'll ever be"

I unlocked the door and opened it wide as the thing started to stagger out slowly. It looked at both me and Tommy and wasn't sure who to go to first.

It hissed at us and that's when I took the bat and bashed it's legs in. He fell to the ground and slowly tried to get back up. It was now on it's knees and it looked up at Tommy and snarled really loud at him.

"Shut the fuck up" Tommy said as he took his knife and dug it right into the dead man's skull causing him to drop to the floor completely.

"And that's all she wrote" Tommy said as he hovered over the body and pulled out his knife. "One down" He said.

"And millions more to come" I said talking about the entire population.

We now walked back to the break room passing our group at the Tv's

"Cleanup on aisle 2" I said as we passed them and went towards Katie.

We got to the door and I went to unlock it.

"You want this one?" Tommy asked.

"Would be fair" I said.

I handed him the key as he went and unlocked the door. He swung it open and just like the last one she came staggering out.

She payed more attention to Tommy than me.

"I think she likes ya"

"She always wanted the D" He said laughing.

But now the jokes were over. I whistled and she looked straight at me and that's when I swung my bat and hit her on the side of the head.

Her neck cracked and you could see the bones sticking out. Her body dropped to the floor as I brought the bat back to my side.

"Goodbye Katie" I said as we stood over her now dead DEAD body.

We returned to the group after taking care of the two. My bat was covered in blood as was Tommy's knife.

Rachel hugged Tommy and Jillian even came up to me. Which by the looks of it kinda made Stacy uneasy.
