I'm Not Ready to Die

Chapter six: The Fog (A/N) I don't own anything except my characters and the places they end up in on their way to Cherrygrove. (I don't even own that.)

After a while of walking in the now dense fog, I decided to play some music off of the speaker on my I-Pod. The first song was Danger Line by Avenged Sevenfold. Then I started to sing along.

"Will you turn that crap off!" said Dom

"NO! Fuck you, I like this music; and I refuse to put on anything else other than rock." I said

Then a tongue came down and grabbed Dom and started to pull him away.

"GET IT OFF!"

I turned off my I-Pod and searched for the smoker, but I couldn't find it anywhere. It was like the tongue came out of nowhere.

"Amanda hand me your sniper rifle real quick." She handed me the rifle. When I looked though the scope I saw the faint outline of a smoker. I fired two quick shots and the figure fell dead. I handed Amanda back her rifle and we ran over to cut the smoker's tongue off of Dom.

"Thanks" said Dom

"Fogs thickening, we probably should find a place to sleep." I said.

I bashed open a random house door and we went inside. It was a small house, but would hold for a few days. I found a bed and collapsed on it and fell asleep almost instantly.

8 hours later

I woke up to the smell of food being cooked. I got up and walked into the kitchen to see a fresh stack of pancakes and everyone eating them. There was only two left.

"You couldn't leave me any more pancakes!" I said

"If you hadn't gotten up there would be none left for you." Said Dylan. I shoved the two pancakes in my mouth and we left the house. The only problem was that there was also a horde outside.

I noticed this and said, "Oh come on can a guy get a break!" Then I turned on the speaker on my modified grenade and threw it.

The speaker started to play the recording that I made very loudly. That recording went like this, 'HEY ZOMBIES I'M A TALKING GRENADE COME OVER HERE BECAUSE I'M LOUD!' and then it blew up the horde of zombies around it. (LOL)

"Crude… but effective; much more entertaining than a pipe bomb." I said. We mopped up any remaining infected and continued on. The fog was still heavy even at noon the fog would not dissipate.

Soon we arrived at a cemetery.

Dylan broke the silence; "A foggy cemetery in a zombie apocalypse… how original."

"Oh shut up and move" I said. I opened the cemetery gate and I creaked loudly… very loudly if I might add. It attracted some feral common infected.

"Take em out… quietly, use melee weapons." Dom said. We took out the small feral horde and moved on though the cemetery. Then I saw some 'actual' zombies rise out of the ground.

"All right those are not infected, they're the actual 'walking dead'" I said nervously.

"Light em up!" Ordered Dom. Needless to say they were harder to kill, but they didn't run they only walked. So I decided to name them 'Walkers'. They were your average 'walking dead' chunks of their body missing from being 6 feet under for so long, they also were somehow held together better than the common infected. They didn't stop walking towards you until they couldn't walk any more. But a good headshot could stop them.

"More Walkers over here." I called out. I blew the heads off them and we moved on.

Then I heard some heavy breathing from around a corner.

"Wait you guys hear that." I said

"Yeah sounds like when a rapist calls you and breaths heavily into the phone." Said Amanda.

"I'll check it out" I said. When I turned the corner I say probably the scariest thing ever. The thing had glowing red eyes and was grey. (A/N if you want a better description just look at a regenerator from Resident Evil 4. Oh and I don't own that. I just thought it could be a perfect special infected for Left 4 Dead) I stared at me breathing heavily. This thing was freaking me out. I started to back away. The thing just started to walk slowly towards me. I shot in the head. Its head came off, but it just kept walking. So I blew its legs off. It fell on the ground but started to flop like a fish still coming towards.

"Will this mother fucker just give up?" I said

Then its head and arms just regenerated. So I just ran for it. I got back to the others just as the thing rounded the corner.

"What… the… fuck… is that." Said Dylan

"I don't know, but light it up!" said Dom

"No don't, its body parts just regenerate when you shoot them." I said. They didn't listen and shot off its head, arms and legs and it still somehow moved forward. I pulled out my .44 and shot it. The thing looked like it couldn't take any more and started to shake violently. Then it just blew up.

"I don't want to run into another one of those things ever again." I said

We continued on after I named that thing a 'Regenerator'. We reached the end of the graveyard, but the only way out was a sewer. We dropped down and continued.

"Turn on your flash lights on." I said

Then I heard the heavy breathing again.

"FML" was all I said

When we turned the corner we saw another regenerator, but it had spikes sticking out of it all over its body and was shaking. Everyone backed up except me, because I had the highest caliber weapon. I pulled out my 44. Magnum again and fired I had to reload and the thing just kept walking. It got closer and closer. As soon as I was done reloading its arms stretched towards me and grabbed me. It pulled me into a bear hug and it spikes expanded and stabbed me. Then it dropped me as my teammates opened fire on it. When it couldn't take any more it shook violently and exploded.

"Shit, god dam these mutations are getting ridicules." I said. "I need some morphine or something."

Amanda was checking my wounds. "You're lucky these aren't deep if that thing was holding you any closer it would have killed you."

I mumbled something thing and got up.

"Because of what this thing does, this form of Regenerator is now called an Iron Maiden." I said

There wasn't much more to go until we got out of the sewers. When we got out we found house boarded it up and went to sleep.

(A/N) so I've finally been downed. For anyone that is wondering the 'Iron Maiden' is just a 'Regenerator' with metal spikes sticking out of it. Both are from Resident evil 4 and are very hard to kill. AKA pain in the asses.
