12:40 p.m.
Dr. Isles residence( if there's a residence left)
Jane was at her mother's side in a blink of an eye. To hell with her leg her mother was more important. Maura was on the other side and Frost in front of them. She took hold of her mother hands and started caressing her face.
"Ma, please, please, open your eyes." Jane said and tears were running freely down her face. "Maur, do something, please." She pleaded.
Maura was searching for a pulse. There was a little beating and for her that was enough to put her to work she searched for any sings of major slashes or any bleeding. Nothing just scratches everywhere and a little bump on her forehead. She was just lying there asleep.
"We just need to wait, love. Let her wake up at her own time." Maura said putting a comforting hand on Jane's forearm.
They waited. Angela's breathing was becoming more agitated by each passing minute. Jane didn't understand a thing but as long as there was breathing it meant everything was going to be fine.
She looked up at Frost and he was looking at her with a sad smile, then she looked at her fiancé. She was looking at Jane with the most understanding eyes Jane had ever seen.
15 minutes later.
Jane had held her gaze with Maura. Comforting each other without words. Frost was looking around again. He came back and sat down. He putted Jane's shotgun at her side and held he's AK-47 and the 2 Colts.
Jane felt movement in her hands. Her mother's hand was moving. Jane looked at her mother's face who and saw her eyes opening slowly.
"Janie…?" Angela murmured. Her eyes closed back.
"Ma! Maura what happened?" Jane asked, panic clear in her voice.
Maura had checked Angela's pulse already, everything was normal; she was just getting back slowly. "She's fine, love, she's just waking up slowly." Maura said calmly.
"Jane?" Frost called her partner. He was starting to stand up and pointing at the front of the house.
Jane looked up to see Frost pointing at something. She let go her mother's hand and stand up. "What?"
"I think is time we start moving, look!" Frost pointed to at least two dozens of zombies in front of them.
"Fuck! Maura let's move. Help me get Ma up! Frost give her the Colt!" Jane was starting to move. She helped Maura with her mother and started to move to the other side of the road that apparently was empty.
"Jane they are moving toward us, fast! I don't have enough ammo to take them all out! We need to run!" Frost shouted walking backwards protecting Jane and Maura's back.
"What do you expect me to do? Leave my mother to these things so they have something to eat? Are you crazy Frost?" Jane shouted back. She was looking for some place they could hide while they moved down the street opposite to were the zombies were coming.
"Jane, they are going to start running soon!" Frost said pointing at the closest monster to them.
"Shit, I don't see a place to hide!" Jane was looking while she held her mother with Maura helping her on the other side.
"Jane, they're getting closer" Frost was getting desperate.
They had moved far from the house. This part of the city didn't seem like it had been hit hard. Maura was looking for a place to hide too. Maybe a basement while the monsters passed or a van. She didn't believe d in luck or anything that had no scientific explanation but when she saw the Ford minivan a few yards away from them she just believed. It looked intact. Maybe a few scratches but if it could move them she didn't care if it was all damaged outside.
"Jane, look, I think that minivan over there is still works. Grab your mother, you're stronger than me and you'll move faster if you pick her up. I'll help Frost with the monsters and cover you until you are safe inside and the van has its engine running." Maura started to put Angela on Jane's hands.
"Sure, Maur. Good idea but what if it doesn't work and then we are zombie food?" Jane protested but picked up her mother and started jogging towards the grey minivan.
"Incorrigible." Maura whispered and rolled her eyes. She moved to Frosts side and aimed to the first zombie she saw. Right in the head. She wouldn't let those things hurt her family.
"Ready, doc?" Frost asked.
"Ready, detective." She answered back.
"FIRE!" And so they started shooting.
Maura was the first one to get one down. They weren't as fast as before and they were just moving at a fast pace but they were a lot and they didn't had a lot of ammo left. They started to move faster to the minivan. Jane was nearly there.
Jane could hear the shooting. She wanted to turn around and killed those sons of bitches that were threatening her fiancé's life but she needed to get to the van soon so they could escape and go somewhere safe. If there was such a place.
She got to the van and opened it. Luck was on their side this time. The keys were in the ignition. She opened the backseat door and putted her mother inside she closed the door. When she turned around one of the monsters jumped on her.
They thing was horrific. Blood on its face. Not much of skin left on it and its eyes were bloodshot. It was growling at her. She had managed to hold it by its neck and kept its mouth away from her. The zombie wasn't that strong but in the middle of its attack the shotgun fell from her hands. She gathered all the strength she could and fought with it.
She used her feet to throw the zombie to the side. The thing fell hard on the floor and she used the moment to grab her shotgun and before the zombie could even touch her she shoot at it. Right through its head. Blood all over her face again. She growled louder. The growl was a shout of anger and frustration.
She got back on her feet, looked around and when she saw no threat she got inside and turned the engine on. It started after a few tries.
"Maura! Frost! Get the hell out of there and get inside! Let's move!"
Maura turned and ran to the van. Frost stayed a little bit longer shooting at the monsters that were close enough. When he saw Maura got to the van safe her ran as fast as he could. He barely made it safe. One of the zombies almost got him on the way. He opened the door and shouted to Jane.
"Floor it Jane!" Frost said.
1:35 p.m.
Jane drove until there were no houses left. Until the city disappeared from the rear view mirror. She stopped when there was no sign of danger. It was a lonely road and she didn't have any idea where she was. She was trembling. Her hands were shaking. All of her body was starting to feel the pain the adrenaline was hiding. She kept breathing calmly.
Maura was too, trying to control her breathing. She couldn't wipe out the image of the faces from the zombies. She was scared. She was having a panic attack. She tried to remember what she read on a health magazine about panic attacks. Deep breaths and try to relax yourself, Maura. The doctor thought.
After a few minutes of silence Maura turned to her left and saw Jane. Who was having a panic attack too. "Jane, breathe deeply, control it and try to relax yourself."
"I am okay, Maur, I am okay." Jane said while trying to control her breathing.
Minutes later, Jane was more relaxed. She looked at Maura and pulled her into a deep embrace. Holding her like it was the end of everything.
"I thought it was all over back there. From now on we'll be more careful. Don't you leave my side, ever." Jane said in Maura's ear. Kissed her jaw line and then found the doctors lips. She didn't care Frost was watching. She wanted to kiss Maura and never let her go but the lungs needed air sooner or later. They broke apart and rested their foreheads together.
"I love you, Jane Rizzoli." Maura whispered.
"I love you too, Maura Isles." Jane whispered back.
"Okay, now that you two have done us a little love scene there would anyone, please, explain me what the hell is going on?" Angela awakened to find Jane hugging Maura and kissing her afterwards.
"Ma!" Instead of shouting to her mother like always complaining about how her mother always interrupted her in her moments with Maura she shouted in a happy voice, grabbing her mother and giving her a hug.
