Scott vs. the Zombies Part 3

A Fan Fiction written by: Warden Freeman

I opened the door for her and closed it quickly.

"Whew!" That was crazy." She said.

"Umm. Hi. What's your name?"

"Ramona. Ramona Flowers." She said.

"Well it's good to meet you Ramona." I said with a smile.

"Yeah, I'm right here!" Kim said.

"Oh yeah. This is Kim. I said. She's my… uhh…"

"Friend. I'm his friend." She said quickly.

"Right. Ok. So where are you headed?"

Kim and I exchanged glances.

"We don't know. Hopefully somewhere safe."

There was a long pause.

"Do you want to come with us?" I asked.

"Yeah! That would be great!" She said with a smile.

We drove for a while and she talked about how she got here and what happened to her. Then she told us her story.

"I was with my boyfriend Gideon at a resturant when the waiter coughed blood on my salad. Gideon stood up and pushed him down and swore at him. I saw that the waiter was bloody and grotesque and I screamed. I ran out just in time to see Gideon bitten in the arm by one of them. It was terrible." She said crying into my arms.

"It's okay. We are going to find a safe place to stay. It'll be fine." I looked at Kim who looked angry and then turned to focus on the road (I had let her drive for a while).

We got to the top of a hill and Kim slammed on the breaks, we couldn't believe what was happening.

"Oh no." I said quietly.

My entire neighborhood was on fire.

My house was engulfed in flames.

"What are we going to do?" Kim said franticly.

"There isn't anything we can do." I said glumly.

"What about your family?" She asked.

I thought about my mother and dad and my sister.

"We can try to look for them somewhere else. There aren't any survivors."

"But there…."

"THERE ARENT ANY!" I yelled at her.

Tears welled up into my eyes and I ran out of the car.

"Scott wait!" Kim yelled after me.

I ran as fast as I could. I had to get away. From everything. From the fire, from the zombies and from Kim. Hot streams of tears fell from my face as I stopped running and sat down, looking at the blazing fire consuming my neighborhood.

"Scott?"

I herd the voice behind me.
"Leave me alone Kim."

"Uhh, it's not Kim."

Ramona sat down next to me and looked at the fire.

"Rough, isn't it?"

"It's hard yeah. I never though I would lose them."

"I wasn't talking about your family."

She looked at me.
"Kim really likes you. You should see that in her eyes."

"I don't need to get into romance at a time like this. Besides I'm not interested in her." I said looking away.

"Well what do you think of me?" She looked up at me with a smile.

"Umm, well I don't…. I think…"

She scooted closer to me.

"Scott." She said quietly.

When she kissed me I almost forgot about everything. The world melted away and the fire turned into ice. I wasn't thinking about anything. Nothing…..

We were broken by the sound of Kim screaming at us.
"We half to go! What are you guys doing!"

"Nothing! I said. We were talking." I said red faced.

"Well talking time is over! There is a horde of zombies coming our way!"

We both got up and ran towards the car. I got into the drivers seat and we drove off, leaving a small pack of zombies shuffling slowly after us.

"Crap, that was close." Kim said.

We made it to Kim's house with half gas and half consciousness.

"Uggg! I'm so tired! I could pass out, a zombie could eat me and I wouldn't care." I said exasperated.

"Okay. There are two bedrooms. Soooo, Scott you get to sleep on the couch." Kim said.

"Aw, what?"

"Come on Scott." Ramona said.

"Okay whatever."

I plopped on the couch and fell asleep instantly.

I dreamed I was with Ramona. We were older, like twenty-three. It was snowing and we were walking in a park and we stopped at sat on some swings holding hands. It was nice. Until, a pair of bloody hands grabbed her neck and she was dragged away.

I awoke in a cold sweat. I looked around. I swear I could feel the hands griping on her. I checked the locks on the doors. I went across the hall and opened the second bedroom door. She was sleeping peacefully. I went up to her and said even though she was asleep.

"I'm sorry."

I left and went to the other bedroom. I pulled up a chair and grabbed the shotgun leaning on a cupboard.

"I'll protect you." I said, holstering the gun on my hip, and aimed it at the door. "If anything comes in I'll blow their heads off, don't worry, Kim."

Authors note: Sorry I couldn't update until Tuesday. I was super busy. But enjoy! Oh and yes the first girl he came up to and said he was sorry to was Ramona and the girl he is guarding is Kim soooo…. Enjoy that love triangle! :D
