It's back from the dead! Yup I'm finally going to finish this! Sorry if you've been waiting! It's hard to keep up with these sometimes. That's why I'm going to keep some of these short. I'll likely write another story without the zombies. For now enjoy this while you can. One more to Co clue it after this. Have a good day!
The Hedgehog, a man known as a troublemaker in his youth had his sociopathic tendencies, his ex-wife and current wife knew all too well about it. His new wife April knew he cheated on her, went to the race track and dealt drugs when he could. They were on the road after what Hedgehog told her was a home invasion by a gang of crackheads. They were 50 miles away when they realized who they forgot. But only worried for all of two seconds.
"Wichita. Do you think she kidnapped her and ran off in her car?," April said half awake. They had fought with Wichita when she showed up unexpectedly to fetch some things for her trip.
"Her car?" Hedgehog hollored. "My car! I'm the one who paid gas money, waxed it and tuned it up!"
"Do you remember her number?"
"Little Rock's likely not even with her!" He drank a beer can while he sped more than 15 above the limit.
"I have to know she's safe!"
"Why? She was a little crybaby!"
"I can't believe you! She's a better daughter than that whore you call Wichita!"
"Wichita is a fucking idiot I'll give you that! Little Rock is looking more and more like her momma which is fine by me!" He laughed, angering her.
"Don't you dare try and touch her!"
"I won't, baby, jeez!"
"Unless there's cameras present of course!" She laughed nasty.
"Yeah, same with Wichita. She's like the town bicycle!" He laughed nastier.
She slugged him in the shoulder, "That's your flesh and blood, Earl!"
"Don't worry, I'd never!" He paused, "Unless it was you two getting in on it together! That sure make us some money!"
"You're nothing but a filthy old man! I'd never fuck her! There's plenty of classier girls down at the Cherry!"
"What if it were you, Wichita and Little Rock? A whole real family affair!"
"You're just the worst!" It wasn't long however with all this disgusting talk about their family that they pulled over for some quick roadside sex. 10 minutes, a new record for The Hedgehog. "Think Little Rock ever work at Cherry's?" She slugged him.
Fast forward a couple days and they realized going back home wasn't an option. They knew of the infection not the outbreak it was. They thought maybe they'd still be able to go home soon. They both got it in their heads now that their girls were their bread and butter, both young and attractive and perfect for smut. April envied her daughter's perfect skin and body. Though it proved difficult to track them down.
The morning after warming each other up once more, Wichita and Little Rock still slept soundly against the bathroom wall. They were only woken up by sounds of people walking slowly inside. Their shadows towering over them.
"Well, now isn't that precious!"
Little Rock was snuggling into Wichita, her shirt covering her like a blanket. "Mom? Dad?"
"Hedgehog?" Wichita wasn't sure if this was a nightmare or painful reality.
"What do we have here?" Hedgehog looked over their stash of shells and other supplies from the police station.
Wichita stood up and made sure to show him she was no morning person. "Those are ours!"
"How did you find us?" Little Rock asked as her mother touched her face.
"Are you ok, hon? What did that bitch do?"
"Nothing...we've been surviving together." It was shocking to see them especially after what had happened last night no one would suspect them.
Her mother hugged her, promising never to leave her again. Wichita didn't like seeing her new lover get suckered in like that but Hedgehog took her outside to talk.
"We have to get to the quarantine zone."
"This is all a bunch of bullshit!" Hedgehog explained, "It's just some terrorist mumbo jumbo made up by the government."
"You really need to stop listening to right wing radio talk. Did you not see the actual zombies?"
"Are you serious? Listen to yourself! It's nothing but a bunch of crackheads and junkies!"
"No junkie I ever saw got shot ten times and stood back up!"
"Is this what you've been filling her head with? You putting her on the same drugs as you?"
Wichita shook her head, "I don't need that shit no more!"
Hedgehog of course laughed, he was a bigger addict than she was but he heard this talk before. "You're no different than me! You should be ashamed! We have plans for her!"
"No!" Wichita gave her father a push, "You stay away from her!"
He was surprised, "What's gotten into you? You need her for?"
"I...," Wichita was going to say three words she knew she'd quickly regret saying to this perv so backed down. "We did some bonding and she's way more family than you'll ever be to me!"
"How dare you talk to me like that you little whore!" She swung at him but he grabbed her wrist, "Where's that car?"
"I crashed it! Went up in flames!" She couldn't help but laugh in his hillbilly face, "See now this is the reason I wanted to leave your ass!" She slapped her across the face so hard she didn't know what hit her.
"Freeze!"
It was Jill Valentine. She found them. April and Little Rock heard shouting and poked their heads out of the bathroom to see. Jill waved both girls over. They stood behind Jill while she had her gun trained on their father.
"Come on now, officer," The Hedgehog pleaded.
"Save it!"
"She's crazy!" April shouted.
"I don't have time to hear it! Get back in your vehicle and get out of here!"
The three watched the irresponsible couple glare at them and get into their shitty ride. The girls got in the back of Jill's car. She looked back at them for a moment to say a few words she had saved for the two.
"Why did you two run off? You're so lucky I found you!" Both girls looked right at her and remained silent. "You're just lucky I came when I did." They sat close together while Jill listened carefully to the radio.
"What did he say to you?" Little Rock asked. Wichita did face her right away, she was still in shock.
"He wanted to take you away from me. I wouldn't let him."
"Really?" Little Rock felt an impulse coming. Wichita nodded and her step sister kissed her on the lips. When they were finished, Jill spoke up.
"Sisters, huh?" She smiled back at them. The word was definitely out now to one person but luckily she didn't seem like the kind to spread gossip. The two smiled and sat they hand in hand as they approached quarantine.
To be concluded.
