A Left 4 Dead Story

It wasn't easy for Sven to find any food for Rex, the other apartments in the building was burned down or badly damaged because of other infected; there weren't any supplies to find either.

The only thing he could do was to find and kill a survivor but it was a risk he could get killed himself.

Suddenly the smoker heard a small noise that seemed to come from one of the apartments, as he walked a little further down the hall the noise got louder. He stopped and turned to face one door that the noise seemed to come from, he hold his breath for a second, let his tongue fall out if it got bad.

He opened the door slowly, it was quiet and very dark in the small room, and the furniture was covered with old sheets and covered with dust.

The noise kept getting louder as he walked further into the room, suddenly from nowhere a creature jumped out from a wardrobe making a huge ear piercing sound as it pushed Sven to the ground.

Sven gave away a quiet cough before he used his tongue and grabbed the creatures wrist, pulling it up in the air upside down.

Sven gave away a small laughter; the funny thing was that it was dressed as a clown. The noise from the clown's nose was irritating, i reminded Sven of when he was a kid and went to a carnival, and he had never liked clowns, especially those who scare them from behind with their sounds.

Sven slammed the clown in to a wall, several times until it was completely dead.

"This should be good enough" Sven said proudly to himself as he dragged the clown like thing out of the room.

Back in the apartment the hunter felt like he had been waiting forever fro Sven to get back, he looked around the small apartment and noticed that the light was on in another smaller room to his right, he stood up from bed and walked towards the small light that came from the slight open door and opened it noticing i was very bright and clean in difference from the other room.

'Looks like Sven likes to keep things clean in here' He thought and walked further in.

He looked around and suddenly felt like being watched by something or someone, he turned around but no one was there.

The hunter didn't like the feeling of being watched, but no one was there so it was probably his imagination or something.

"Rex! I'm back!" Sven walked in to the apartment, noticing the hunter wasn't there and noticed that the light where on in the bathroom.

He lay down the body and walked towards the bathroom door, just when he was about to turn off the lights he noticed Rex, sitting on the sink starring at something with a curious look on his face, he took away his eyes for a second to look at Sven that was standing in the doorway deeply confused.

"Sven!" The hunter shout out loudly against the smoker

"There is someone else here!" He added shortly and looked back into the mirror, scraching on it a bit with his claws.

Sven got even more confused, he walked up beside the hunter and looked into the bathroom mirror as he gave away a huge laughter he fell to the floor spinning around laughing so hard he started to cry.

The hunter gave a confused look at the smoker rolling on the floor laughing so hard he couldn't breathe.

"Wh..what's so funny!Some other person is here Sven!" The hunter shout angrily, looking at Sven with an angry look.

But Sven just kept on laughing but managed to stop a bit and rubbed his eyes giving small giggles at the hunter,

"It... it's your reflection silly!" He started to laugh hard again and turned on his stomach.

The hunter turned madly red in a hard blush and got down from the sink, his face red as a strawberry.

Rex hadn't seen his reflection since the infection so he didn't know how his face looked like and he never thought of watching himself in the mirror al this time.

Sven stood up wiggly and walked over and hugged the still red hunter.

"You're so cute Rex" He giggled and hugged the hunter harder.

"Shut up" The hunter mumbled in to the smokers shoulder and then looked up at the smokers face.

`He's still laughing!´ He thought irritated and struggled out of the hug and walked past him into the other room.

He gasped and fell backwards into Sven's arms,

"What now?" He giggled and looked up, but when he saw what it was about he got a bit shocked himself as his face turned white and his mind blank and stood completely still.

The ground shake as the tank walked past the apartment and stopped by the door opening to where Rex and Sven where, it growled quietly and then shout out in rage as he got shot by a gun in his arm and he ran towards where the bullets came from.

`Survivors?´ Sven thought and dragged Rex up, he had passed out in shock and was really white in his face, he took him up on his back and walked towards the doorway noticing the growling tank and some survivors further away and he ran the other so he wouldn't risk being shoot.

He ran for a while until he reached the main road that was covered with some snow and abounded cars.

`Damn´ Sven thought and started to walk between the cars where it was possible, he walked for hours before he sat down with Rex in his lap, still passed out.

He stroke the blond hair from Rex s face, showing two cute closed eye s, then stroke his cheek and took his face closer to the hunters but then suddenly the hunter yawned and woke up noticing the smoker really close to his lips with his own.

He snapped out and stood up,

"What...What are you doing!" He shout angry and turned red again.

Sven just smiled and stood up and started to walk between the cars as he turned his face,

"Come on, if we don't hurry the survivors will catch up" He said kindly and stretched out his hand.

Rex took a grip of it and holds it as Sven led the way for him.

Rex felt a little worried about the route they were taking, it felt like he had been on it before and he felt a bit scared by its atmosphere.

Sven noticed the worried look on the hunters face, he on the other hand knew this route perfectly, it was hard to walk between the cars but then they reached a car free zone just by a fence, as it suddenly started to snow Sven got confused, it shouldn't snow here.

Rex looked up on a poster on a huge wall and felt a great fear grew up inside of him as he read;

"The dark carnival..."
