(Continuence of Chapter 5)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Four days ago...

The chaotic red sky looked as if a sea of thick dark blood...and because of this, the ocean looked no different. The loud crackles of lighting struck continuously throughout the land along with its devestating thunder... The tsunami waves of the ocean tumble and crack among another...and the smell of the air is of rotten flesh... Yet on the flip side, Ebony is gone and everyone is safe...for the moment...

"That was the wierdest thing I every saw!" said Tim with the stinch of blood still on his ripped clothes. The blood was stained and never was going to come off. "I'm glad she's gone now... She was a freak of nature..."

Kayla and Kiara were still fatigued and flying the army helicopter that they stole from a psycho general. He was bitten and needed to be executed...(long story).

Apart from being completely lost, they were all still in shock of what Ebony had done...

"I still don't understand..." Leon stated. "She was just an idiot..." Leon's mind became a valley of confusion. "There's absolutely no way that she could have all that power..."

"She must have done something to herself to get all that power..." Tim added as he took off what was left of his shirt. "Those damn zombies they ripped my only shirt... I don't have any other clothes..." Tim looked at Leon as if he should care...he didn't... "Hey, Leon, say something..."

Leon didn't say a word and just stared out of the opened doors of the helicopter.

"Be careful, Leon. Don't fall..." Kiara warned as she handed the control over the helicopter to Kayla and turned around to check on everyone.

Leon looks at her with sorrow and a heavy-heart. His thick eye brows were lowered and were motionless on his face. It looked as if he were holding back tears... "Kiara...have I done the right thing...?"

Kiara looked at him... She couldn't answer...

"You did the right thing..." Tim answered for her. He looks at Kiara for approval; she gave none.

"I miss Ebony..." Kayla mutters as her eyes begins to water.

Kiara looks at her...and then turns to Leon...

"She was family..." she utters as she too begins to develope watery eyes.

"I'm sorry, Leon, but I'm starting to miss her, too..." Tim admits as he stands up and tries to comfort Kiara.

All Leon could do, was to look out of the doorless chopper, and let the tears of sorrow run down his face...

(Kiara is very beautiful with her light brown skin, brown eyes and short, brown hair. She is also the niece of Ebony.

Tim is Kiara's boyfriend who feels as if he isn't getting enough attention from her, but because he is loyal, and doesn't have to be by himself anymore , he stays with her... He's very handsome and has a very athletic build. Not too much on the smart side though...

Kayla is Kiara's little sister and also a niece of Ebony. She has light green eyes, with long, brown hair that reaches to her elbows. She is not as smart as her sister but is smarter than Tim. Though she is always there, the rest of the group sometimes lose track of her because she is so quiet... She also is jealous of her sister because she's older, smarter, and has a boyfriend...)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leon's Mind and Thoughts: Ebony was a threat... I don't even understand why I'm feeling this way over...her... I must keep my mind off of Ebony... Otherwise I'll go crazy... Hmph...family...yeah-right...like Ebony's related to them... (Leon instantly regreted what he had thought, and a surge of sorrow followed; he quickly changed subjects to think about...)

I wonder what life outside of this...game, is like. They said that in their world, there's no such thing as zombies...the only thing even close to zombies is a disease called, rabies...

How do I convince them that I don't want to be here? How do I convince them to take me with them...? How would I say it so they won't think that I'm like everyone else we've fought... sigh I'll talk to them...when the time comes...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the sky shrouds to darkness, Leon notices they are in uncharted territory...

"We aren't supposed to be here..." Leon says to himself as he prepares to inform the rest of the group. "We aren't supposed to be here!"

"Why?" Kiara questions, distracted by his unexpected tone of voice.

The tone of Leons voiced demanded that they listen.

"We need to leave this place..." Leon stuttered with fear and tenshion stirring in his throat. "We're in uncharted territory, and I don't know this place," he explained. "...which makes us vulnerable... Turn around Now." His voice is stern and they dared not to defy him...or they might pay with their lives...

Kiara and Kayla turned the helicopter around, headed towards known regions...until a black bolt of dark lightning from the darkened red storm above them struck their chopper...

As the helicopter twirled and swirled clockwise, towards the blackened earth, Kayla grabbed the walkie-talkie radio in front of her and shouted, "May-day, may-day! This is a four-one-niner! May-day, may-day! I repeat, I repeat, four-one-niner, may-day!" Kiara looks at her sister in complete shock.

"Kayla! What are you doing?!" Kayla looks at her sister with a panicky confusion.

"I'm calling for help on the walkie-talkie!" Kiara slaps her up-side her head.

"That 'walkie-talkie' ain't a walkie-talkie! That's a rock!" Kayla looks at her sister with even more confusion. That's not a rock. Has my sister gone insane? Everybody was looking at her like she had problems.

"We've got no time for jokes, Kayla, we have to land this--"

CRASH!

The helicopter landed on a high mountain. Out of reach of any zombie. Though a little shaken, everyone was alright. Kiara asked if everyone was o.k.

"Is everyone o.k.?" Her voice is engulfed with fear for everyone. Then she noticed...

"Kayla?! Where's Kayla!!! Kayla!!!!!"
