-Chapter 7- Boss of the Zombies-
Astrid looked at her watch impatiently for what felt like the hundredth time in the span of ten minutes. "Major! Hurry!" She hollered. Major came out of the bedroom with his gym bag with a smile. "Impatient much?" He laughed. "Well I got to drop you off first, and I really want to see Blaine." Astrid said. Major shook his head with a chuckle. "Man talk about puppy love." Liv walked up behind him and smacked him in the head. "Hey be nice, Astrid really likes him." Major rubbed his head and looked at her. "I didn't say she didn't!" Astrid smiled at Liv. "Thanks Liv." Liv smiled back and hugged her cousin. "No problem, now you two go."
Astrid followed Major out to the car. "I'll drive to the gym, since you don't know the way there." Major said as Astrid tossed him the keys. They got in the car and were soon on the way to the gym. "So you really seem to like him." Major said after a while of silence. Astrid looked at him unsure of what to say. "I do, he's not like any of the other guys i have dated who were jerks or only wanted one thing." Major looked at her sympathetically. "Wow those guys sound like ass-holes." Astrid nodded. "They were, and some just added to my drug problem." Major looked at her confused. "You did drugs?" Astrid nodded. "Yeah I did ecstasy, and meth." Major's jaw dropped. "For how long?" "Two years on the meth, and a year on the ecstasy." Astrid answered. "How did you stop?" Astrid smiled. "Liv helped me, she got me into a good hospital and when I got out she let me stay with her." Major smiled. "Thats Liv." Astrid nodded. "Yeah, she's the only one who was willing to give me a second chance." Major looked at her. "But do you think dating a former drug dealer is a good idea?" Astrid looked at him with a small smile. "Major, its like I said before if I damn him because of his past then you should damn me because of mine. Everyone deserves a second chance at a new life…."
That was the last thing Major heard Astrid say as a black SUV t-boned the blue Audi. The Audis' tires screeched in protest as it was pushed sideways into a traffic light pole were it stopped, the vehicle smoking like crazy. Astrid looked around dazed and confused her head pounding like crazy in pain. "Maj? Jor?" She grumbled incoherently. Suddenly someone opened the door on her side and shoved a black bag over her head and drug her from the car. She cried in pain as her broken arm was violently jostled from side to side. Then everything went black….
"Miss. Moore? Miss. Moore you awake?" Astrid came to in a large warehouse. "Major?! Major?!" Astrid looked around in panic as she struggled with the ropes binding her hands. Major lay unconscious on the floor, as their capture stood out of Astrid's line of sight. "Who are you?! What do you want?!" She yelled. "Why its quit simple my dear, your cousin is putting a damper on my plans…." Astrid looked at Major's unconscious form in fear. "What plans? She hasn't done anything!? Who are you?!" Suddenly a short balding man stepped into her line of sight. "You may call me Mr. Boss, and yes your cousin has put a damper on my plans. We have been trying to distribute utopium and her search for a cure has….how should I put this… Hindered me.''
"And what does that have to do with me and Major?" Astrid snapped. smiled, a smile that sent a cold chill down Astrid's spine. "Well she hinders me…I hinder her…. An eye for an eye, they say." Mr. Boss laughed as he walked away. As he walked away a young man maybe no more than 20 years old walked up holding a gun. He stood next to Major and looked at Astrid, a cruel glint in his eyes. He raised the gun and aimed it at Major's head and cocked the gun. At the sound of the gun cocking Astrid felt a wave of anger and power surge through her, her broken arm no longer hurt and her aching head was no longer an issue. She felt the ropes snap and with a surge of energy she launched herself at the young guy with a roar of rage. She hit him full on and they toppled to the floor in a heap. The guy tried to aim the gun at her but Astrid grabbed his gun wielding hand and twisted violently hearing a sickening snap. The guy cried out in pain and Astrid pinned him to the floor and started punching him in the head over and over again.
"Astrid! ASTRID!" Suddenly Major pulled Astrid off the guy forcefully and restrained her. Astrid seeing Major slowly began to calm down. She looked over and saw her refection in a piece of metal and cried. Her eyes were a fierce red and her hands were bloody. "No…. I didn't…." She whimpered. Major forced her not to look at the now dead young man. "No Astrid don't look. Hang on stay here." He said going off to look for an exit. Astrid looked at her hands , and tried to rub the blood off on her pants. Major came back and grabbed her uninjured arm. "Follow me…"
A couple minutes later they were walking down a boat dock when the police showed up. Liv, Ravi, and Blaine piled out of the cars. "MAJOR! ASTRID!" Liv cried. Liv pulled them both into a hug. Astrid was still in shock and didn't know what to say, but busted into tears. Blaine pulled her into a hug and held her stroking her hair gently. Ravi walked up with Clive who looked awkwardly at Major and Astrid. "Um guys I need to take a report." Major looked at Astrid who looked at him pleadingly. "I'll go first, Astrid needs time to settle down." Major offered. Astrid smiled at him thankfully. Blaine pulled Astrid off to the side and looked at her. "Babe what happened?" Astrid looked at him. "It….It was some man named Mr. Boss…" She saw Blaine go rigid. "Boss? Are you sure?" Astrid nodded. "Yes. You know him?" Blaine nodded and looked at Liv who was watching them. He waved Liv over and told her what Astrid had said. "So this is your former drug boss?" She asked Blaine. "Yes and from what Astrid said, he's pissed at you." Blaine answered. Liv nodded. "Well he just pissed me off…"
-Next time in Zombie Angel-
Blaine walked into Shady Plots and found Astrid sitting in his office on the couch staring out the window. "You okay babe?" Astrid turned and looked at him. "Can I ask you something?" Blaine sat down next to her and took her hand in his. "You can ask me anything." "What was it like when you first killed someone?"
