AN: Sorry I haven't updated sooner, but my Internet connection was cut off for a week or so thanks to the gardener. As always reviews are very much welcomed.
"Shit, this seriously cannot be happening," Jill proclaimed as if it were some sort of sick joke that out of the sea the undead seemed to be rising and propelling themselves towards the ship, in a somewhat grotesque swimming style.
The circling birds however had now begun to attack the scantily clad holiday-goers, who in turn were screaming and running around like headless chickens, pretty ironic really Jill thought.
"Everyone, get inside! Go to your cabins!" Jill bellowed at the top of her lungs, her police training kicking in as she began to try and usher people towards the doors leading inside.
Alice looked over the edge a final time to realise that some of the zombies were now beginning to claw their way up the side of the ship. Their water induced bloated and partly decayed bodies looking even more grotesque up close than their dry counter-parts back in Racoon City. "Move! Get inside now!" Alice shouted, joining Jill in her mission to save their fellow passengers.
Both Alice and Jill stopped for a moment, completely mesmerised as they watched the waiter from earlier be swooped upon by what looked like a large vulture…. with two heads. Alice charged at the beast, delivering a roundhouse kick straight to its back, causing it to let out a ghastly sounding screech.
Jill continued ushering the passengers inside until there were no live ones on the deck that they were on except Alice and herself. "Com on Alice, we need to alert the other passengers before we have any more casualties,"
"Ok, but I'm telling you now this is going to get worse before it gets better," Alice stated chillingly, causing shivers to course down Jill's spine as they finally headed inside, barricading the doors with whatever furniture they could grab.
"I'm going to get on the loud-speaker and alert everyone to the situation in hand," Jill informed Alice.
"Be careful though, we don't want a full-scale panic situation, plus we don't know what we'll find. Anyway I'll meet you back at our cabin after I've rustled up some make-shift weapons," Alice replied allowing Jill to kiss her tenderly before they separated.
"I love you Al,"
"I love you too baby," Alice told her Jill truthfully.
Jill's authorative voice beamed over the staff loudspeaker, the urgency in her voice somewhat apparent. "Everyone this is no hoax, you have probably witnessed the unnatural species outside, so it is of the utmost importance that you all stay within the safety of the ship, therefore you should refrain from going out onto any of the decking areas, or opening any windows. Please try not to panic and stay within your cabin's as much as possible."
Meanwhile at about the same time, a black helicopter was landing on the cruise-liner's heliport in which sat two passengers.
