Chapter 16: Man down...
Leon and President Graham entered the Wal-Mart cautiously, even though the store was fairly lit up, it was still a source of potential danger. As they passed the frozen food section Leon noticed two dead bodies between the frozen food section, one of the bodies was the medic of Delta team, her throat was torn out while the other body was missing a head. As they were passing into another aisle, the sound of automatic fire went off, Leon pushed the president to the floor and covered him as glass from one of the fridges in the food section exploded from the bullets. The gunfire stopped and footsteps were approaching, Jake Hughes approached the two and was about to shoot them again when Leon got up and aimed his handgun right at Jake's head.
"Don't even think about it." Jake lowered his weapon and helped the President to his feet.
"Thought you both were zombies, couldn't really see you guys all that well...sorry about that ." The President nodded, his gesture of accepting the apology.
"How many of you guys are in here?" Leon asked lowering his weapon away from Jake's head.
"Besides our dead medic, there are still 4 of us...Sergent Wayne and Quincy are still getting in contact with General Rodgers and Perry was shooting some undead out near the electronics area."
"Well tell Perry to get back here and we'll meet up with Sergent Wayne." Jake nodded and pulled out his radio to reach the sniper.
Perry shot down several more zombies as he wandered the electronics area, after making sure the section of any undead, he began reloading his sniper rifle. Little did he know that behind him, one of the zombies he had supposedly killed opened it's eyes as it rose to it's feet. Growling, it rushed Perry and tackled him from behind sending his weapon flying. While the zombie was trying to bite into Perry, the sniper was trying to reach for his handgun but couldn't reach it and hold the zombie back at the same time. Suddenly to Perry's horror he could see other undead approaching, suddenly the crimson zombie sliced Perry's throat and sank his teeth into his bleeding neck. The sniper twitched violently and drowned in his own blood as a group of undead men and women bent down to enjoy their fresh meal. As the undead dined on the sniper, his radio came to life,
"Perry...Perry pick up, we need to meet up with Sergent Wayne...Perry?"
Author's notes: Snipers just never seem to get any breaks in the Resident Evil universe can they? JD, Forest, Sniper from Resident evil Apocalypse and Extinction, and now Perry...
Two Delta soldiers down...three left, will they make it...?
