I don't own Zombieland Columbus, Wichita, Little Rock or Tallahassee.
Pontiac, Harvey, Cheyenne and Trent are my creation as is this story. This is a work for my love or obsession for all thing zombies.
Chapter 14
In-between a Twinkie and a hard place
Just then Tallahassee ran pass Columbus and the others. He stopped in between them and the horde. He yelled out as loud as he could. "Run! Get to the factory. I'll cover ya'll. And I'm sorry!"
As he took aim at the closes zombie he knew he screwed up big time. Then he notices the closes zombie was a preacher. His white collar was stained red. A face that once been clean and only shown peace, understanding and forgiveness. It was covered with boils, sweat and blood. THe only emotion shown now was chaos, wrath, hate and hunger. Tallahassee pulled the trigger and the preacher right eye disappeared and he fell to the ground
Wichita and Columbus took off for the factory. Little Rock knew she should run but. She just didn't want to. She was tired of running. She was tired of life being so hard. Tired of fill the way she was. Alone. She was tired of this nightmare that was life. Her legs gave out from under her. It felt as if the whole weight of the world was press her down. She couldn't hold her tears back anymore. She just laid there and waited for the end. Columbus hit the door first and Wichita was right there with him. He grabbed the doorknob gave it a turned and push. He ran right into the door. "Shit!" He stepped back and gave the door a kick. He put every thing he had into the door and with aloud thud the door didn't budges. The only thing that did happen was his leg flared with pain. "Some bitch my leg!" Columbus thought to him self. He took aim with his shotgun. He was about to blow the doorknob off the door.
Itch
"Wait!" Wichita yelled as she pushed him to the side. "Wait!
"We don't have time to wait Wichita." Columbus responded.
She turned the knob and pulled. The door opened with ease. "You're lucky I like you goofball. Now get in and make sure it's safe for me and my sis." Wichita said as she looked down to her side. Where Wichita had to expecting to find her little sister. But she wasn't there. "Where my sister!" she thought in a panic. She turned back towards the horde. Fearful of what she might see. She saw the horde on the other side of the Caddy. Little Rock was on the ground behind Tallahassee. "Little Rock!" She screamed as she ran back into the parking lot to get her baby sister.
Tallahassee quickly ran out of ammo for his little Winchester rifle. And as he dropped it and wiped out his two silver colts 45 pistol. Just as he was about to continue to fire he heard what sounded like some one crying from behind him. As he looked back he heard Wichita Yell Little Rock. Then he looked down to see where that sound was coming from. It was Little Rock. She was on the ground and crying. She was curled up in the fetal position. He turned on his heels and he made his way to her as fast as he could. He had to get to her. He had to get her to safety. He would never be able to forgive himself if anything happen to her. He barley survived losing Ben. Just then he heard his little boy cry out. "Daddy….. Help Me!" and then screams of pain. Tears fill his eyes as his he started to re live his. Not now he yelled at him self. He wasn't going to lose her and wouldn't let it happen again.
Just then he realized there was a Zombie right behind him. He could hear it. It was nipping at his heels. As got within feet of Little Rock. He dropped to his knees and slid to her. The male zombie was wearing an orange Hawaii-ing shirt and it leaped for Tallahassee and Little Rock with its arms out stretched. Tallahassee quickly Whipped around with his 45's around and opened fire. The first round struck the zombie in the right shoulder. The second round hit the ugly basterd right in it heart the last two shoot found there way directly in to the pus bag skull. The bullets entered through the eyes. It smashed through the eye sockets. It sent thousands of little jagged pieces of bone deep into the brain. The two 45 round sliced through the brain and in there wake of speed sent devastating shock waves rippling through the grey matter. The 45's slugs busted out of the back of the skull sending blood, bone and brain matter outwards.
The now just a limp corpse tackled Tallahassee to the ground. Tallahassee pushed the body off of him with his left arm and throwing it to his left side. Tallahassee turned and picked up Little Rock in his arms. As he got up he glanced back just in time to see the horde swarming around there Caddy and spreading out in the parking lot. That all he needed to see it cause him to run like hell for. He saw Wichita Run toward him and Little Rock. He yelled. "Gooo! Get in side! I got her. Be ready to shut that door when I get inside!"
As he entered the factory door he turned to go in side ways so to not hit Little Rock head or legs on the door frame. Columbus slammed the door shut and locked it behind him. There was a loud thud as the horde slammed up against the door and the wall. They hit with such force it cause the dust off the ceiling joists. Wichita ran over and took Little Rock from Tallahassee. As Wichita took her sister she gave Tallahassee an nod and a smell smile before she turned round and walked away from him. Tallahassee turned around to talk to Columbus. The first thing he saw was a blurry white object coming at. Tallahassee was nearly knocked off his feet and he stumbled backwards on his feet. As he tried to recover and stand up straight His nose started to sting with pain. What the fuck he thought. He quickly grabbed his nose and the pain flared up. Tallahassee then looked around the factory to see what he ran into but he didn't see anything. He looked at Wichita. Her jaw was hanging opened and eyes wide open and As She held her sister in her arms. Tallahassee then noticed movement in the corner of his right eye. He turned his head and looked in that direction. It was just Columbus standing there. He was holding and shacking his right hand in pain Just then it hit him. "Holy shit! You punched me." Tallahassee yelled at Columbus.
"Dam straight I punched you. I'd do it again if my hand wasn't killing me. Ah to hell with it." Columbus said before taking another swing. This time with his left hand. But Tallahassee caught his fist in mid swing. Tallahassee smiled and said "I don't think so Ohi." But he was cut off as Columbus hit him again. This time the punch was even harder and Tallahassee couldn't stop his self from falling to the ground.
"Damit!" Columbus yelled out in pain. As he walked away holding and shacking his right.
Tallahassee sat up. His face felt numb and a tingling sensation spreading across his noise and mouth. Then he felt like he was drooling. So he wiped it on the back of his handed. He looked at his hand and saw blood on it. Tallahassee got up and made a beeline for Columbus. Columbus stopped and saw Tallahassee. He had the same look in his eyes when he was killing Zombies. Tallahassee grabbed Columbus by his collar with both hand and pushed him up against the wall hard. He lifted Columbus up off the floor. As Columbus grabbed Tallahassee wrists. Tallahassee could see the kid wasn't even scared. Then Columbus was staring him in the eyes and then spoke up. "Go ahead and beat me up. If it'll make you fill better. But don't you forget this is your fault. You fucked us real good this time. And for what? A god dam Twinkie!" The last part he yelled. Tallahassee stood there his blood was boiling. All he wanted to do was to beat the crap out of the twerp.
Just then Wichita yell. "We don't have time for your pissing contest. So put them back in there holster. Were in deep shit here and we need to figurer away out of this mess. While we still can." Tallahassee and Columbus looked at her and then back at each other. They both nodded in agreement with what she was saying. Tallahassee lowered Columbus back down to the floor and let he let him go.
Tallahassee turned and walked away. Then he said. "We should barricade that door and any other ones." He looked around the factory. It was bigger on the inside then it looked on the out side.
In the center of the room were had a number of machines that he couldn't recognize. They were canted by pips, tubes, weirs and a conveyer belt. To his left was a steel staircase. It lead up to a suspending cat walk way. It snaked it way around the inside of the building along the windows and it went over top of the machines. The windows wrapped around the whole building. To his left was the shipping department. He could make out a forklift. He saw a number of full pallets next to the forklift. "Ok. You guys Get up there and check the windows and see if were surrounded. I'm going to use a couple of those pallets to reinforce this door." Tallahassee said before run towards the forklift.
Wichita, Columbus and Little rock ran up the stairs. Columbus made it up to the top of the stairs and looked out over the parking lot. All the zombies were surrounding the front door. There was a smaller group of maybe twenty that had surrounded the Cadillac. They left it idling when they chase after Tallahassee. The engine nose wasn't that loud. But it was loud enough to keep the closes zombies distracted. "Dam it." he said out load.
"What's wrong?" asked Wichita. Then she saw what was wrong. From her side Little Rock spoke up. "O no!" her voce was full of worry.
"It'll be ok. Were going to be ok Little Rock. Right Columbus?
"Yeah come on. Will go check the back." He ran towards the other windows across the room. With Wichita and Little Rock not far behind him. When he got to the other side he stop and his arms fell to his side and he lowered his head. When Wichita reached him her stomach sank. Little Rock looked out the window. There were a number of zombies spread out across the back parking lot. There were too many of them. They couldn't make a break for it. They'd be surrounded before they made it half way across. They were trapped. And with that Little Rock turned and leaned ageist the wall before she slid down. She pulled her legs to her chest and didn't say any thing.
As Tallahassee got closer to the fork lift he notices that it looked new. There weren't that many scratches on it. There was a propane tank fixed behind the seat. It was parked around Twenty Fully loaded wooden pallets along the wall. He climbed up in and started looked around for the ignition. It was above the steering wheel on the roof. He reached up and turned it. The forklift sputtered to life and gave off a stale smell that made Tallahassee a little nausea. He flicked on it's the light and got to work. He grabbed one pallet and Headed for the door. He drop it right next to it off center but it was Nice and tight. Then he went back for another on and placed it next the other one. You could only see a few inches of the top of the door. After that he turned off and got out. And he headed up the stairs.
When he reached the top he looked out the window and said "Jesus!" He then turned and saw the others across the room. He walked over towards them. They were just standing there looking out the widow. Wichita heard him coming and turned face him. Tallahassee stopped in front of her and looked around her out the window. Tallahassee simply said. "Shit!"
Shit. That all he had to say for him self. They were trapped and there going to die. And that all he had to say for him self. Her blood started to boiled. She formed a fist and swung it as hard as she could. Columbus heard a crack from behind him. He turned just in time to see Tallahassee stagger to his side. "You stupid redneck. Were trapped in here because of you." She said as she turned and sat down next to her sister. Little Rock leaned over toward her sister and Wichita wrapped her arms around her. Tallahassee looked down at her and Little Rock. Then he looked at Columbus. Columbus didn't say anything to him. All he did was giving him a look that he deserved. O we fucked up real bad this time. He just looked out the window onto an uncertain future.
And as usual id like a review. Till next time. Peace out.
