Chapter 15

Don read the torn piece of paper a couple more times, then tucked in it his belt. He heard Scarlet's heavy breathing near him, he breathed in, turned to Scarlet and opened his mouth to speak. But a large crash interrupted him, Don felt himself flying through the air and smacking his head onto the wall. Hearing nothing but a large and painful ringing in his ear, he opened his eyes and couldn't make out anything, his vision was blurred, but he saw two figures coming in and out of sight.

One he could easily tell was Scarlet, and the other, he didn't have to on the verge of unconsciousness to tell that it wasn't human. He tried his best to lift himself off the ground, but all his muscle's felt like pudding. He grabbed ahold of a nearby shelf and held himself up. The ringing in his ears was gone, only to be introduced to a horrifyingly evil noise.

A chainsaw.

Don tried to get his vision back into focus. Once he was able to see, he looked at Scarlet who had been hit with a giant hammer. She fell to the ground and was completely venerable. Don then looked at the monster, he couldn't explain it. The man's face wasn't even fit to be called a face, it was so mutilated that one look at it made Don want to puke. His body was about the size of one of Mikey's monsters on his game, there were two chains wrapped around his body and he had a gaping hole in his heart.

Don watched as Scarlet flipped over and stared in horror as the monster towered over her. Don looked at the weapon that the monster was carrying, it was a sledgehammer…but he could still hear a chainsaw. Don's heart dropped as the monster took the hammer and flipped it over, reveling a chainsaw attached to the end on the hammer.

"You're kidding" Don said softly to himself

Scarlet screamed as the monster slowly walked up to her and lifted the chainsaw. Don quickly reached in his belt and pulled out his gun, didn't really have time to aim, so he fired, hitting the monster in the shoulder. The monster stopped and looked at Don.

"Yeah…That's right, Come to daddy" Don said, firing the pistol again

It hit him in the chest this time, the monster grunted and turned around, and began to walk toward Don.

"That's right" Don said

He lifted the pistol to aim directly at the monsters head.

"Hasta la vista, baby" Don said, always wanting to use that in battle.

He fired the pistol and felt the vibrations run through his arms. He watched as the bullet smacked him right between the eyes. But the monster neither stopped nor responded.

"Oh sh*t" Don said softly as the monster continued walking toward him.

The monster lifted up the chainsaw and charged for an attack.

"Don!" Scarlet screamed

Don looked down at her as she pushed the shotgun and it slid toward him, stopping in his hand. Don picked it up and pointed the barrel directly at the monsters head. Just as the monster swung down his chainsaw, Don pulled the trigger, instantly feeling the warm blood splatter all over his face. Don looked at the monster as it stood motionless, its mutilated head was no more. The monster dropped his weapon, fell to his knees and smashed into the ground, blood pouring out of the hole where his head use to be.

Don tightly kept a grip on the shotgun, just in case it stood back up. But minutes after it fell, it remained motionless. Don sighed deeply.

"Wow" Scarlet said

Don looked over at her as she remained on the ground, Don lifted himself up off the ground and caught his bearings. When he heard Scarlet breath out, he walked over to her and held out a hand. She took it and raised herself up, but then shortly after, she fell onto his shoulder, yelping in pain.

"What's wrong?" Don asked quickly

"My leg" She responded

Don looked down at her leg and saw a large gash with blood pouring out of it.

"Bastard got me when I tried getting up" Scarlet said

"That looks bad"

Don examined the shelves around him and fortunately found bandages. He took them and knelt down to get a better look.

"Alright we don't have time to clean it and sew it, I'll just wrap it for now" Don said untangling the bandages and tightly wrapping around her wound.

After a few minutes, the wound was all bandaged.

"All right…let's get somewhere safe so I can bandage that wound" Don said

"Ok" Scarlet said

Don wrapped his arm around her shoulders and supported her as they walked.

"Sh*t!" Scarlet shouted

"What!" Don shouted back

"The bastard wasn't alone" Scarlet responded

Don looked toward the entrance and saw a crowd of zombie trying to make their way in. Don quickly looked around and spotted the back door.

"There!" Don shouted

Don turned around and guided scarlet on his shoulders toward the back door. They opened it and was taken to an alley way. Don walked out of the alley was and looked toward the front of the store, seeing a whole bunch more zombies then he expected.

"Damnit" Don shouted

They turned around and went to run the other way, but that way was filled with zombies as well.

"Oh come on! Give us a break!" Don shouted

"Donatello…alley" Scarlet said weakly

Don turned around and walked as fast as he could down the alley way. He looked behind him and saw the zombies quickly filling up the alley.

"Sh*t" Don muttered under his breath.

They continued to walk down the dark alley way in a desperate attempt to escape the zombie horde. They turned the corner and continued to walk down the alley. Don envied Mikey, he grew up playing zombie games, so he knew how to handle himself in this situation. But Don, he was just hoping for luck.

But luck wasn't on his side.

They froze, staring at the wall that was at the end of the alley way.

"No" Don said

He gently set Scarlet down, leaning her against the wall. He quickly turned around and felt along the walls, hoping to find a door. He looked down the alley to see the zombies closing in.

"No no no no" Don shouted

"Scarlet" He said

No response.

He turned around and saw he passed out on the wall. His heart froze.

He quickly looked around and spotted the bag of guns. He quickly reached in his belt and pulled out his pistol, releasing the cartridge that was in and replaced it with a fresh one. He took a deep breath and pointed the gun down the alley. He felt the sweat roll down his forehead, he took another deep breath and closed his eyes.

"God help me" He said
