Zombie Wave 1

More like Zombie Rave LOL

There are three kinds of people in a zombie hoard attack: bamfs, weaklings and maniacs.

But there is the occasional savior.

Try to survive.

The group had been walking for a few minutes now, and so far, everything seemed to be going well. Trudi was walking with the help of Webster and Julie, Jackson was leading them effectively, and Bacon and Eun Ji were being gross and annoying, as usual.

Julie looked back, and saw that the Walkers were still following them, but they were further back now. Luckily, nobody else had gotten bitten, which was nice. Too many people had already died today, and Julie didn't exactly want to see anybody else die.

Julie instinctively reached for her gun when gunshots began to ring in the air, but they sounded distant. It seemed everybody had the same idea, except for Michelle. She looked to the direction the gunshots came from, and then a few more were fired.

"What do we do? Should we go help?" Julie asked.

"No," Michelle said. "That sounded like multiple gunshots, which means multiple people. Who knows how many zombies are over there? And they may not even be killing zombies, they may be trying to kill each other. We've finally gotten away from the Walkers, so we keep on moving towards the safe house. Don't get distracted."

"Oh. Well, that was convenient then, I guess," Julie said. "Well, not for the people the Walkers going towards, obviously. It for them. Unless they're total s or something, then too bad for them. But I'm just going to assume that they're good people, and feel bad for them because - okay never mind." Julie felt she was talking a bit too much, so she just decided to stop.

They walked for about thirty minutes more, and in those thirty minutes, she got to know Webster and Trudi a bit better. Well, mostly Webster, since Trudi didn't really seem to be in the mood to talk. She would've asked to know more about him, but she felt a little awkward since Trudi was right there in the middle of them. She'll wait until they get to the safe house.

Julie began to hear sounds of whooping and chanting, which quickly ended when Michelle nicely ordered them to "shut the hell up". It turns out that the other survivors were cheering because they had finally reached the safe house. Julie looked up in awe at the house. It was huge. Even bigger than the Rising Island Hotel. "Holy crap," she said. The others seemed to be impressed as well.

Plus, the best part was, nobody seemed to be inside the house as well. That way, there'd be no awkward confrontations or anything. Although, it's not like whoever was in there could handle an entire army of survivors. Unless it was zombies. Well, the group handled themselves pretty well earlier so zombies wouldn't be that hard to beat. It would have to be a really big one, like a Bloater from the Last of Us or something - okay, Julie decided not to let her mind run at a time like this.

She looked up at one of the windows, and could've sworn that she saw a person look through it, then walk past it. Nobody else seemed to see it, so maybe she was just imagining things.

"So... are we gonna go in or what?"

I run to Julie to help her carry the kid. All I can think about is getting the hell out of here. Even though I would normally be mad at the kid, I'm not. She must have her reasons and I've come to the conclusion that I can do even more unpredictable actions. As we follow the group, I see Bacon slapping Eun Ji's bum. Oh my god, PDA. The kid makes gagging sounds while Julie looks disturbed. I raise my hand to do a chopping movement that separates their hands. Eun Ji and Bacon turn their heads.
"Guys, no public displays of affection in the premises of this building, please. There are children here." I say to Bakeji. Bacon looks annoyed. As for Eun Ji... well if looks can kill, I'd be more than dead.

We continue to follow the leader guy to the kitchen. Wait. The zombies at the back exit! "DON'T OPEN THE DOOR!" I yell. But I was too late. Leader guy opens the door. He is face to face with a zombie. I hear Julie gasp. But Leader guy has zombie guts all over him. So the zombie walks in without harming anyone. Oh yeah, I became immune to the horrible stench a long time ago. Good thing we are all covered in it. Leader guy takes lead; motioning everyone to move slowly.
"Maddie!"
"Mom!"
From the left of Julie, the kid and I were a child and her mother getting attacked by a 6 foot zombie. Before anyone can react, the ax that was binding the door flies into the zombie's head. Michelle walks towards the zombie to pull out the tool.

The mother reveals the bite on her forearm. She asks to take her daughter with us and to leave her. Michelle's eyebrows furrow, but she accepts once the mother began to plead. She was once a mother too, she must understand the feeling of protecting your young. This must be extremely hard on Michelle-- she looks more worn out than usual.
Leader guy picks up the child. But she is thrashing around. Causing even more unwanted attention. A few people suggests on leaving the child, but Michelle just yells at them to shut up. Michelle goes up to Maddie, trying to comfort her. Unfortunately, she cries even harder. I look around to see more zombies approach. Leader guy suggests picking up the girl and run. Michelle agrees too. Although Trudi brings up the point that running is not an option for her. While they all argue, I pull out a handkerchief.
"Sorry about this Maddie." I take the handkerchief and tie it around . Once Maddie's cries are muffled, we continue moving on to the new safe house.
"I thought you were going to punch the kid."
"I'm not that violent. Just unpredictable."

Michelle took in her surroundings. Everybody was good and accounted for. Good. Nobody had been bitten yet. Great. And it seemed like everybody was following their orders, even the little ones. Perfect. All they would need to do now is quietly make their way in the opposite direction of the zombies.

Obviously, that didn't happen. Some of the fangirls had gotten bitten - Michelle didn't even know why they were coming along with them in the first place, as they had been the ones who started this in the first place - and they started screaming at the top of their lungs. . Michelle considered cutting off the limbs of the fangirls where they had gotten bitten, but that would take too much time, and make even more noise. So she decided that it would be best to put them out of their misery, quickly. Luckily, Webster had the same idea too, and he started shooting them.

That seemed to anger Eun Ji, and she ran up to him, telling him to stop. Michelle was standing next to Bacon now, and he was about to go too, but she pulled him back. "No," she sternly whispered. He pouted. "You're staying here, with me. You'll see your girlfriend when we're at the safe house." She felt like a kindergarten teacher telling a child they couldn't play with toys unless they learned how to share.

Clearly, the fangirls made a lot of noise, and now the zombies turned their attention to the group. Michelle considered shooting them, but that would only create a total bloodbath. Plus, people were getting bitten left and right, so they were already running out of time. "Everybody, listen up," she said, hopefully loud enough for everybody to hear her. "I need all of you to start running. Forget the zombies, forget the bitten, if you want to survive, you need to listen to me. Follow..." She looked around the group, looking for somebody that she could trust. Then she spotted him. "...Jackson. Follow him, okay?" Michelle said, pointing to him.

"Sorry to pin all the responsibility on you, but this is urgent," she said to him. "The safe house is that way." She pointed in the direction. "You can't miss it. Don't stop running until you get there." Jackson answered with a nod and started running, to which the others followed.
Michelle turned back to see the girl who got shot and Julie struggling to hold her up, and Webster and Eun Ji still arguing over the fate of her fangirls. She looked behind her, and saw Bacon still standing there. "Why are you still here?" she asked. Before he could respond, she just waved him off. "Never mind. Don't answer that." There was no way he was leaving without Eun Ji. Michelle walked over to Eun Ji and practically dragged her away from Webster, and walked her back to Bacon. "There. Your dearly beloved is back. Now go." Clearly, the couple was satisfied, because they listened and started running, hand in hand.

"And Webster, you're going to need to help Julie with that girl over there." She moved behind the remaining three people, and scanned the zombie crowd for any people they may have left behind. It didn't look like they were any left, so she turned around. "Let's go," she said as she reloaded her gun. "Keep an eye out for anything dangerous."

I quickly grab any weapon that was in my reach, as the zombies came through the door. "Sh!t". I'm honestly getting fed up with the walkers. I'm weaving my way through them, trying not to touch or look at them, there's a lot. Thank Jesus for the zombie guts!

I see a shoe fly, "What the.." who randomly throws a shoe. Then I hear it land on metal, and the zombies moving towards its direction. "Hmm. That's smart".

Out of no where, I hear gun shots. "Are you kidding me! Who starts shooting at a time like this, then I see it's this guts shooting at these fan girls. Good!" That pop-star should learn that giving out autographs in our situation is very stupid.

For the record, I kicked Hero guy to check if my leg was fixed properly. I'm pretty sure that in some culture that means thank you... I think. My memory of traditions and customs of other cultures are getting rusty.

Before I could explain myself, sh*t hit the fan. The zombies began their attack through the front door. Julie, Hero guy and I ran for our lives. Everything was a blur. We turn around to see the face of a zombie, and there is another one either side. Crap. I shouldn't be here. The plan was to leave BEFORE sh*t hit the fan. Not when there is brick tonnes of it repetitively hitting the fan. What the hell does that term even mean?

We are in a sh*tty situation. Hero guy isn't here to save the day. Psh, what am I saying, we're not some damsels in distress. Ok, game plan Trudi. You're going to throw your shoe to distract the zombies. What the fu*k brain?! This plan did not work before with the fangirls, so why would it work now. *SOUND OF METAL GETTING HIT BY A SHOE* Did she just throw her shoe? The zombies hear the noise and walks toward the pan. Wow, impressive.

We advance to the door. Finally, we're getting out of this hellhole. We take five more steps to freedom... wait are those gunshots? "NO!" Multiple gunshots are firing. Trudi looks at Julie, "What the hell-" Julie gets interrupted by high-pitched female screeching. I turn my head around to see what the hell is going on.

Oh, Hero guy was shooting Eunji's beloved fans. This man truly is worthy to be deemed 'Hero guy'. As Hero guy shoots the fangirls one by one, Eunji seems to be hitting his back, telling him to stop. Bacon is somewhere, I don't know. Probably stripping. When I look closely, they all have zombie bites. That makes much more sense. She was probably going to give out autographs again.

"By the way, I didn't want to come off as rude when I kicked Hero guy on the shin. It was a way of showing gratitude... In some cultures. I think." I tell Julie.

Julie's eyes widened in fear as the zombies burst through the front door, sending the people in the lobby into a frenzy. But they regained their composure just as fast as they had lost it - and everybody was silent. Julie, Webster, and Trudi were still far away from the door, which is where everybody else was heading. Michelle was at the back of the group, making sure nobody got left behind. She motioned for the three to hurry up, or they would be left here.

Julie put her arm around Trudi's shoulder and motioned with her head towards the door. Trudi didn't exactly seem like the friendliest person, considering she had just kicked Webster in the shin, but Julie still wanted to help.
Julie slowly started walking slowly towards the hotel door. The floorboards creaked. Sh!t. Her shoes were making squeaky noises. Fu!k. But it seemed like those noises were only magnified to her, as she noticed that the zombies around her didn't do anything. Good.

She looked behind her to see if Webster was following, but only met the gaze of another zombie. Then she turned forward again, and there was another zombie in front of her. And one to the side. And the other side. Well, that was sh!tty. Julie looked around frantically, trying to think of how to escape without bumping into any of the zombies. She could slowly move past the ones in front of her and to the side of her, but that would only put her up against another zombie. Or she could fall back, but then they would be too far from the group, and she didn't know where Webster or Michelle or anybody were.

"Sh!t," she muttered. She couldn't think of anything logical, so she start doing what first came to mind. She let go of Trudi, and bent down to untie the shoelace on one of her shoes. Then she looked around for any type of object - a metal pan. That would do. Julie threw her shoe at the metal pan, and it clattered to the ground, distracting the Walkers and making them turn in another direction. "Oh my God," she whispered. "That worked. YES."
Julie once again put her arm around Trudi's shoulder, and the pair started walking towards the door again. She silently celebrated her victory, fake-shooting every Walker that passed by with her fingers. They were all going to be safe, finally. She didn't have her mother here, or her father or her sister - but she believed that she would move on, eventually. These people would have to do for now.

They were almost at the door when she heard something in the distance - a gun, maybe? That's what it sounded like. But that was stupid. Nobody would really shoot a gun at a time like this, would they? Julie's thoughts were confirmed when she heard a very loud "NO!" followed by a series of gunshots. She turned towards Trudi, "What the hell-" then the air erupted into a series of loud gunshots and ear-piercing screams.

With my hand extended out, I expected the woman to shake me back, instead she rubbed zombie guts all over me, which came as a shock. "Sorry, there weren't any guts on you", Michelle apologizes, I think that's what she said her name was. I guess I was so preoccupied with putting zombie guts on people that I forgot about myself.
Suddenly, I hear this scream and panic a little because it can attract walkers. Michelle asks me to help find partners for the kids. They were playing some hand clapping game. "Good", I say to myself, at least they can find some form of fun and joy in the midst of all this... I walk over to the kids, "Hi guys, what are you playing?",I ask. "We're playing slide", one of the kids said. "That sounds fun, maybe I'll play with you guys next time. But right now, I need to find all of you a partner, okay", I say in a gentle tone.

After all the kids were paired up with someone, there was only a millisecond of me resting before the doors started shaking, and hearing banging noises. "Oh no, not again" I say angrily. "Honestly, I haven't gotten one single shut eye and there's going to be another f&$@&ing raid", I sigh, "God why!?".
Michelle Manning 10 years ago
Michelle looked up as the man - Jackson, he said his name was - extended his hand out for her to shake it. The first thing she did was looked up and down at his body, checking for any bite marks. There were none, which was good. He seemed normal enough, and he was polite.

Michelle stood up and forced. She found herself doing that a lot these days. "Michelle. It's nice to meet you, Jackson." She extended her arm as if she was going to shake his hand, but instead rubbed it all over his face and clothes. "Sorry. There weren't any zombie guts on you. Wouldn't want you to die when we got out there, would we?"

Michelle heard a scream come out of the room Webster and Julie took the injured girl too, and instinctively, she began to walk towards the noise. Then she stopped and turned towards Jackson. "Listen, I need you to do me a favour. You see these kids over here?" She gestured towards the kids sitting in the corner, all of which were covered in zombie guts, but they seemed to be having a good time, playing some sort of hand clapping game. "I need you to find each of them a partner for when we get out there. Most of their parents aren't here, and I don't want them to be alone. Thanks."

She knew it was a lot to ask of a man she had just met, but somebody needed to do it. Michelle hurried towards the room, just in time to see the injured girl kick Webster in the leg. What the f$^$. The entire room was covered in blood, and Michelle noticed that there was a bullet on the floor. Webster and Julie must have been successful in treating the girl.

"Geez, kid, what's your deal? I know it hurt, but tough sh!t, this guy just saved your life. Just be grateful he didn't have to cut off your leg," Michelle said. "We don't kick people, okay? If you want to kick somebody, make it a zombie, or that Bacon guy. Either way, I don't care. And one more thing-"

Michelle stopped as she heard screaming come from the lobby. She pulled out here gun, ready to shoot an infected person who got in - but she didn't find one. People were panicking over something much, much worse. The doors were rumbling, and Michelle could hear something pounding against them. The Walkers were trying to get in, and there was no way their barricades would hold for much longer.

"Yeah, just check her wound if its swelling and tell me right away if it is. But if there isn't any swelling, apply pressure to the wound," I say to Julie. I have to take out that bullet to stop the bleeding, if not then we have to cut off her leg. I grab the kitchen knife and clean it from all the zombie blood. There seems to be no swelling so I can take out the bullet. "I'm going to have to pull out the bullet. If she wakes up, hold her down." Julie nods. I have never done this before but I have watched Michelle and the others do this kind of thing many times. So, I kinda got the gist of how to extract a bullet from flesh. As soon as I dig the knife into her leg, she jerks up and screams. I hear Julie swear as she holds her down. With all the yelling she might attract infected. So, I grabbed a bandage roll and stuff it in . "Just bite on that when you want to scream. We're trying to get the bullet out," I say. Even though the girl is in pain she looks infuriated. I continue with the procedure, I move the knife around; trying to get the bullet out. As I move the knife more blood is gushing out. The girl starts to thrash around while Julie restrains her. F!@#, this is more difficult than I thought it would be, good thing the bullet didn't go in too far. This won't take as long as I suspected. I pull the knife upward and the bullet comes out. "Hell yeah," I turn to Julie, "The bandages," I say. Julie understands and takes the bandages from the kid's mouth. I take the peroxide to disinfect the wound. Julie begins to wrap the bandages tightly around the kid's leg. "Wait, not so tight. Make it a bit loose," I tell her. Julie loosens the bandages then tucks it around. Suddenly, the girl stands up and kicks me on my shin. "Ow, what the hell?" I rub my leg. It didn't hurt but still, this kid is ungrateful. I just saved her life.

Thank God that zombie raid is done with, I think to myself, as I enter the hotel looking around. I see a group of people treating a girl with a gun shot injury on the leg. “Wow, no one should be holding a gun if they don’t know how to aim properly”, I say to myself, feeling sorry for the girl.

Then a woman, who seems to be the leader of this whole team, was ordering people to barricade the doors. I used one of the furniture’s to block some doors before going to help her with whatever thing she was doing.

I saw that she was rubbing zombie guts on people. I took out my knife and slit the stomach of one of the dead walkers and started rubbing the guts on people as well, feeling sorry for them being in the state that their in.

After I finished helping with the zombie guts, I went over to the leader; I didn’t want to bug her, because she looked really busy right now but, it wouldn’t be polite to barge in to this group without introducing myself. “Good day. My name is Jackson Mathews and I recently arrived during the zombie raid. It’s nice to meet you.” I say, extending my hand out.

Julie was in a state of complete shock as the couple stood before her, and they didn't even seem to be fazed by what Michelle said to them. She didn't know whether to laugh or cringe. Michelle just left the room while they were talking, and Julie wanted to follow, but Webster stayed, and Trudi still needed help. This .

"If you embarrass me then you'll get nothing when we arrive!!" Gross. "After all...it IS my occupation..." Ew. "Yea you're right... I AM hard..." Holy f$#^king sh!t, ew. Julie didn't even know this guy all that well, and she already wanted to punch him in the face. Judging from the look on his face, Webster did too.

So Julie nudged Webster with his arm, signalling to him that it was probably time to leave; Michelle already did. Trudi needed medical attention, plus Julie didn't want to have to watch this very public display of affection anymore. She grabbed some peroxide from the counter before she left. It would probably help. Probably. Julie wasn't exactly sure, she just saw it on TV before. Hopefully Webster would know what to do with it.

Julie put Trudi's arm around her shoulder, and Webster did the same, and they hoisted her up off of the floor. They began to walk out of the room and towards the room that they were in before, watching as Michelle ordered people around in the lobby. There were a lot of injured people, Julie noticed. She was grateful to not be one of them.

The pair reached the room that they were in before, and carefully set Trudi onto the ground. Julie handed Webster the peroxide and went to the cabinet to grab another bandage for Trudi's leg after they were finished, the blood was starting to leak through anyway. She cringed as she removed the bandage and threw it into a nearby garbage can. Zombie blood, she was okay with. But this was real human blood, and it just made her feel like throwing up.

"Gross..." she made a face as Webster got to work on Trudi's leg. Julie noticed that the room was eerily silent, and Webster looked concentrated with what he was doing. She looked outside to the lobby, where early everyone was covered in zombie guts, which must have meant that Michelle didn't need any help right now. And there was no way she was going back to the medical room with Bacon and Eun Ji.

"Well, uh... anything you want me to do?" she said. She really did want to help, but she didn't exactly know what to do. Her mother had only shown her how to stitch up a wound once, and even that memory was a little hazy. "I feel kinda useless here."
Eun Ji 10 years ago
I look at the girl who was in charge and start giggling when he tickles me. "Yahh...oppa stoppp...it tickles..." He chuckled and kissed my neck. "They dont want to see us... " I laughed and tickled him back until he was laughing loudly.

"Oppa I think we have to leave soon and people are injured..." He pouted. "Okay..." He steals a peck from me and smiles be for helping me to put on my pack. He then took his. "So are we ready?" He smirked. "Oh and... Michelle... was your name...? Maybe? I'm sorry but we'll probably do it but you guys dont have to listen."

I smack his arm hard blushing. "YAH OPPA! You're making me embarrassed..." I pout. "If you embarrass me then you'll get nothing when we arrive!!" He slapped my hard making me squeak. He leaned in my ear and whispered,"Then should I you in that case? I can give you a free show of my body baby." He made a dramatic pause.

He then smirked saying, "After all...it IS my occupation..." He laughed as I smiled like an idiot unconsciously. "Ehem." I clear my throat. "So shall we start going guys? Or do we have to wait or what?" I gasp feeling Bacon. "Stop that!! Hey... hey... mmphhh..." I feel him touching me and kissing me again.

Damn that bacon... when he breaks the kiss I say breathlessly,"L-later... we have to go now oppa... I know... I know its hard..." He looked at me. "Yea you're right... I AM hard..." I blush hard waving my hands frantically. "NO NOT THAT THAT STUPID!! It's hard to control your hormones..." I mumble and he wrapped an arm around me. "So are we going? Hurry I want to go to the shelter and $-"

"Oppa shut up. You're embarrassing the both of us." "Whaat?!" He whined. "Actually I dont really care... but I think they do..." I gesture to the two girls and guy in the room. We look at each other and start laughing hysterically.
Michelle Manning 10 years ago
She was discussing her plan of action with Webster when the door busted open as that newbie - Julie, Webster called her? - came in with an injured girl. The one who ran out of the hotel earlier. Her leg was bleeding all over the place, from what seemed like a bullet wound. F##^king Jeff. He never did learn how to aim properly. Michelle grabbed a piece of cloth and wrapped it around her leg, trying to stop the bleeding from a few minutes. She led Webster, Julie, and the injured girl to the medical room for supplies, when-

It wasn't like Michelle wanted to kill them or anything. But she definitely wanted to do something, though. It was the middle of a zombie bloodbath and here they were, kissing. Of all things they could be doing right now, they were kissing. And it wasn't like a regular kiss, either. It was one of those exaggerated, movie ones - and they didn't even seem to notice the group walk into the room. This was going to be her super villain origin. "Are you f#@%king kidding me... I don't even..." she sighed.

She looked to Julie and Webster, who looked like they didn't even have words to describe how they were feeling right now. Well, Michelle had a lot of words to describe that. Then the injured girl started laughing. Laughing? It wasn't funny. It was f#%#king exasperating, and it was things like this that made Michelle want to give up of humanity. She was about to say something, when the girl fell to the ground, unconscious.

F$$#king great. Now Webster and Julie were panicking over the girl, and it didn't even seem to faze the couple playing tonsil hockey at the moment. So she fired two warning shots into the ceiling, which seemed to get everyone's attention. It was loud, but it wasn't like they weren't in the middle of a zombie $h!tstorm anyway.

"Webster, Julie, get the girl out of here and patch her up. Check for any bite marks too, would you?" She didn't wait for them to reply. "And you two." She didn't even know what she was going to say to them. So Michelle decided to get straight to the point.

"This is a zombie apocalypse, not the f%$#king Bachelor, holy sh!t," she huffed. "If you want to do... that." She gestured to them, a disgusted look on her face. "Do it when we're out of here. Actually, no, even then, don't do that. Or. It. You know what I mean, right? Good."

She exited the room and got to attending to those who had been hurt in the fight, there were women, men, and even children, some as young as 4 years old. A man even had to shoot somebody in the lobby that had already re-animated. "S%##," she sighed. She glanced towards the door to make sure that everyone was safe and inside, and sure enough, they were. Except for the fan girls, but they would have to deal with that situation themselves, they're the ones who got themselves into it in the first place.

Michelle ordered a bunch of people to barricade the doors with anything they could - their weapons, furniture, anything that would buy them time. Then she got to work. There were about 4 dead Walkers in the lobby, and she opened each of them up. She started rubbing the zombie guts all over the children first, then she moved on to whoever was closest. A few others caught the gist of what she was doing, and they joined her too. "We need to hurry, alright? We're going to walk through the zombies and get to another safe area."

Getting shot in the leg (it's her leg now not arm) was the worst feeling in the world. Almost as bad as my period cramps, but not remotely close. This comes in second place. I fall to the ground from the pain. Still not as bad as period cramps-- I remind myself. Then I hear zombie grunts behind me. F$&@ing great. The zombie guts I rubbed on will not help now. I struggle to get up. The pain is burning my leg. I continue trying to stand; the zombie is coming closer. I don't really believe in a god but if there is one, I'm praying to them now for help. I can't die now, so I prepare to kill the zombie. Just as I reach for my knife in my backpack, a hand grabs onto my sleeve and pulls me up gingerly. It was the newbie girl.

We both continue our way inside the hotel. I actually wanted to get away from this place as quickly as possible. I guess my plans have changed; once again. Suddenly, we fall to the ground. "F!@#ing s@#$," I groan. I landed on my wounded leg and reach for the bleeding area. "Are you kidding me?!" I look over to see the newbie on the ground with a zombie crawling on top of her. Oh my god, I need to do something! I try to stand up, which didn't work out. I expected to hear a scream or something but when I looked up the zombie didn't do anything. I guess she had zombie guts.

After that whole zombie situation, we continue walking towards the hotel. "GREAT!" What? I turn my head to the left to see a guy standing there. Yeah, the hotel is kinda a right now. I feel a jolt of pain shoot through my leg. I hiss and stumble a bit. The newbie helps me regain my balance. "Thanks," I say. She nods in reply. As we got into the hotel, newbie begins to frantically look around for someone, and sighs when the dude who saved that Bacon guy with the leader person.

"Hey, my name's Julie. And um, you got shot, if you didnt already know that. Well, you probably did. Sorry about that, by the way..." says Julie. I begin to zone out as she rambles on. I obviously can't go on my own now. I guess I'll have to stick with a group until I fully recover, then I can go back to finding my family. "...That would be weird." Julie finishes. "You talk a lot," as I say that Julie makes a werid facial expression and agrees, "My name is Geertrudia, but just call me Trudi," I say.

Julie and I go to the room where leader and hero dude were. Both of them seems to be discussing something but stop when we interrupt their conversation. The hero dude looks relieved when he sees Julie. He goes up to her and bombards her with a million questions and apologizes for leaving her. Um, I kinda need medical attention. "This is a great reunion and all but, I need medical attention," I say. The leader and hero dude immediately go into action. Leader woman takes a piece of cloth and wraps it around my wound to stop the bleeding. But, there wasn't any medical supplies so she says says to head for the medical room.

Hero guy takes my arm and helps me walk. Julie then explains what happened outside the hotel. Leader person leads us inside the medical room. Inside is Bacon and Eun Ji face. "Damn you a hella good kisser my bacon." Eun Ji says as they begin to swap spit again. Despite being in a zombie apocalypse, this was hilarious. Julie and hero guy are in a state of shock, while leader over here was red with fury. Almost like she was about to pop at them at any moment. I pull out my phone that surprisingly had more battery life left and take a picture of everyone. I look a the photos and begin to laugh, especially at leader woman's picture. This is going to be my new wallpaper. Another jolt of pain shoots through my leg and I start to feel dizzy from laughing. My knees weaken as I fall to the ground and pass out.

I am finally at the Hotel. "Thank God!!" I say, but take back that statement when I see the chaos that was happening. "Are you f@#&ing kidding me". I say in an angry growl.I have been walking for the past four days, trying to find this hotel, and i find it like this, "GREAT!".

One week ago, I was in a happy relationship with Jasmine, the most beautiful and caring girl in the world. But that all ended on our two year anniversary, when the walkers came. We celebrated it at my family lodge. There wasn't enough firewood, so I went out to get some. Before going outside I told Jasmine, "Immediately I leave, make sure you lock the door, don't come out until i come back. keep the gun I gave you by your side at all times. I'll be back soon. Okay". She nodded. I gave her a peck, "I love you", I said and left. Taking with me,my knifes, my gun, my machete and my axe to cut the trees.

Everywhere was silent, as I was trying my best to quickly and quietly chop the wood so as not to get the attention of any walkers, and to hurry back to Jasmine, feeling uncomfortable with her being alone. Also considering she is impatient and stubborn. I love her anyway.

After what seems like forever, I hear a loud scream. "NO", I whisper. I start running as humanly possible that I can, my heart racing, my head pounding. "Please God no", I plead. Praying that it's not my Jasmine that is hurt, but some stranger that i don't know. I hear a scream of my name and run towards the direction of it. After what seems like forever, I find a pile of walkers, at least five of them crowded over a body. I take my machete and start sling of the heads of the walkers and pulling them off. The person that the walkers were bitting was.....Jasmine.

"NO, no, no ,no. Please no", I plead, "Jasmine, baby, why!". Tears rolling down my face."Why", i sob, "Why did you leave the lodge...Why did you leave the f@#%ing Lodge!!" I yell. Jasmine whispered, "You were taking too long and I was worried, so.....i went out looking for you." I hugged her limp body to my chest, "I told you not to leave... Why do you never listen...Why". "I'm sorry", Jasmine chokes out with effort. "Shhh...It's okay, baby, I'm here". "You're going to have to kill me", Jasmine says. "What, NO!", I say, "I'll figure out a way to fix this...I will!!". Deep down I know I can't because there are too many bite marks all around her body, so it's not like I can cut off an arm or a leg.

"You have to", Jasmine whispers, "If I am going to die, I want to stay dead. I don't want to become a monster...Please Jackson". I don't want to, but I know that I have to. I Take out my knife and put it against the back of her head. We stare at each other, "I love you", Jasmine says. "I love you too. More that you'll ever know", I respond. Then I pushed the knife in, and watched the life drain away from her.

I've never been the same man since then. After I did Jasmine's burial, i started heading towards the hotel. I'm here now to find all these walkers. I join the fight, taking all my anger out on them. I also see two people kissing. They couldn't find a more reasonable time to do that. Do they want to get killed, "Not that is of any of my concern", I say to myself as I see a walker coming towards me.

@Bacon Mcy I was getting really at the way Bacon was looking at me. I bit my lip and looked at him smiling while flinging my word around with style and doing a cartwheel hitting a walker in the face and squishing their head.

"Hey y stop looking at me like that." He only smirked. I dodged a walker but suddenly one came crawling at me. " $&@^!!! What the- DIE!!" I sliced its head and jabbed it several times. "If that thing comes back to life dude..."

He laughed and suddenly he grabbed my hand and pulled me to him for a kiss. My first kiss. My eyes widened then closed as he made it deeper. "I'm sorry babe but I needed to kiss you. I needed your energy and love. I can't go on without it."

I stood there frozen for a second before I just sliced a walkers head off from behind me not even looking at them. I was focused on his beautiful face and smile as we faced each other staring in each others eyes. He gave me another peck.

"I'd love to stare and kiss you all day but... we might get killed. Well... if you do I don't really care because I'll follow you." "Okay so being such a m*#^/$/*@#ing y beast and attractive piece of !" He smacked my as I squeaked.

We both sliced all the walkers around us and he picked me up and swung me around as I kicked all of them in a circle. "Ha! Take that!! Come at us bruh!!" We both saw an army of walkers coming towards the hotel. "Well... #^/$"

"Come baby they're too many!" He yelled and grabbed my hand taking me to a room. He closed the door trying to catch our breaths. He pushed me against the wall and kissed me passionately. "And I wanted to kiss you."

He then got all the stuff giving me a backpack filled with lots of goodies and he took one himself. He also took an extra. "We just have to wait for the others... since we have some time..." He trapped me against the wall and kissed me as he dropped the pack and so did I.

He tilted his head as I wrapped my arms around his neck and he wrapped his arms around my waist. He kissed me passionately for a few minutes. "Damn you a hella good kisser my bacon." I say breathlessly.

Eun Ji and I continued fighting off the walkers. I couldnt help but just stare at her sometimes. Her body was really beautiful and quite frankly it was as I smirk. I knew though that now was no time to think about that. I looked at her impressed when she killed a walker from getting to me.

I run with my hand in hers to meet the other girls that seemed to be taking charge of the situation as both of us were getting exhausted. "Hey! Um I dont know you people but what's the plan? I think we just fought how many walkers?" I squeeze Eun Jis hand while turning around slicing off a head and stabbing another.

"I really would like to find a place where I can express my love for her!" She blushed. Cute. I kick another and half fight with my fists. She was so good at fighting. "Man... those fangirls are crazy Eun Ji!! Too many sasaengs..." I continue fighting while looking at her ily.

It happened before Juliet could even comprehend it. Some idiot had shot that girl from before - the one who Ussain Bolted out of the hotel - thinking she was a Walker or something. "Oh my God," Juliet gasped as she grabbed onto Webster's arm, trying to get his attention.

Everybody was trying to get into the hotel, due to Michelle's orders, and none of them seemed to notice the girl except for Julie. There was a Walker near the girl who was shot - it was about to bite her. Juliet pulled out her gun instead of using the hatchet, it would take too long to get over there. Her hands were shaking as she raised the gun. It was a close shot, and she didnt know it she could do it. She had to shoot plenty of Walkers before, but if she missed, she would hit the girl. She wouldnt even be able to live with herself if she took a human life.

No, she coukd do this. All she had to do was remember her mothers words - she had potential. Juliet out her finger on the trigger and - click. No bullets. "Oh s#/@! Oh s#/# oh s#/$ oh s#/# I'm an idiot!" She exclaimed. Of course there were no bullets. What a wonderful day this was turning out to be. She threw the gun on the ground and decided the best course of action was to "simply" get the f$$@ out of there, because if that girl died now, it would be her fault.

All she had to do was grab the girl, and run. Easy enough, right? No. By the time she reached her, the Walker was only a few steps away from them. She pulled the girl to her feet and started walking her towards the hotel, making sure not to touch the area where she was shot. Juliet didnt want to cause her any more pain.

Then she felt the Walker grab her leg and pull it down. Juliet let out a yelp as she crashed to the ground, and she heard the hatchet clatter next to her. "Are you kidding me?!" She yelled, exasperated. She'd give anything to not have her life be like an Uncharted game, where every time the protagonist moved, he'd just have to deal with another monster or villain. The Walker was on top of her now, and surprisingly, it didnt do anything. Juliet looked down at her clothes, and then she remembered. There were Walker guts all over her. "Looks like Im the lucky one in this situation," she said.

She pushed the Walker off of her and grabbed her hatchet, which she used to bash its head with. She saw a couple more Walkers advancing, so she turned around to head towards the hotel.

She put her arm around the girl who got shot and led her inside the hotel, where everybody else was starting to gather. Juliet looked around to see if she could find Webster. She kind of just left him standing by himself. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him heading inside with Michelle. It was nice to have a friend, even if she didnt o him that well.

Then she turned to face the girl. "Hey, my name's Julie. And um, you got shot, if you didnt already know that. Well, you probably did. Sorry about that, by the way. Ill be sure to punch the a$$hole who did it in the face for you if I ever see him." She paused. "Actually, no I wont. What if I saw him like, 3 years from now, and I punched him in the face? That would be weird." Juliet knew she was talking too much, but she couldnt help herself. It was her way of dealing with the s$/#iness of the current situation.

S!@# has definitely hit the fan, and I'm not sticking around to see what happens next, I already did what I came for. I take out the knife from my bag gripping it tightly. I run to the kitchen and open the door. "F@#$!" There was at least six of them out there. I'm out numbered. I begin to panic as I slam the door shut (she didn't close it properly). Okay, this is bad, I need to find a way to get out of here. The entrance was swarmed by zombies, there is the roof, but I couldn't be able to jump from that height. Goddammit I'm trapped here. Wait, I can use zombie guts. Now I just need to find a zombie. Another scream echoed in the lobby. Some guy just beheaded a zombie with a lamp. Well that makes my job easier. I use my knife to cut open the stomach, next I grab the intestines and rub it all over my clothes and face. The smell is revolting, but I have to it up. "I need help in the kitchen!" Oh no, not the kitchen. I stand up to go and help the person, but the new girl made it in the kitchen before I could. Hopefully she could assist the dude.

"Ingrid! Zombie!" A bunch of kids were trying to defend themselves from zombies from a corner. Who in the right mind would leave kids in a corner defenseless? People can be so irresponsible.

I kick the back of the zombie's leg and stab the back of his head. "Guys follow me, you need to be quick and quiet. Got it?" I pretend zip my mouth, and they mimic my movement. I gesture for them to follow me. If I was a kid the best place to hide would be... the front desk! I run to the desk, and tell the kids to hide under. These little ones need to protect them with something just in case. My nail filers that I stocked up from the drug store, bingo. I pull it out and give one to all the kids. "This is just for emergencies, got it? If a zombie comes here, run, do not scream for help. If you cannot, then defend yourself with this. Just do what I did with tat other zombie," I instruct the kids. They all nod, "Good, now stay put... but not when the- okay never mind, bye kids."

I walk by that k-pop girl and the guy that was saved by the other guy, they seemed to stand their ground. I think I was a bit too close because the girl was charging towards me with a f!@#ing sword. "WOAH! I'm human! Human!" I yell. She stops with an annoyed look on her face and continues to kill zombies. Um, okay then. That was the girl those crazy fan girls were idolizing. As I advanced through the crowd of zombies, one of those crazed fan girl's arm was cut off, how pleasant. Also, the group of kids that I told to stay put is following the leader of the hotel who looks infuriated. While I stopped to look at the spectacle, a gunshot goes off. My arm begins to burn. "I think I just got shot."
Michelle Manning 10 years ago
Michelle was fuming. No, fuming didn't even come to describe how she was feeling right now. She'd have to look up the word if she ever got her hands on a thesaurus, because right now, her hands were full. She was leading a group of children away from the Walkers - some idiot had decided to give inexperienced five year old kids weapons - where they would be safe.

Then she heard the screaming. "EUN JI!! I LOVE YOU!!" Were they f$#$king serious right now? They were probably why the zombies were here in the first place. She couldn't even comprehend how idiotic some people could be. "If I hear one more f%%#king scream," she said, loud enough for everybody to hear. "I will chop your head off, Walker or not." She grabbed her knife and killed three Walkers, just to further emphasize her point. "I'm not joking."

One of the fan girls to her left screamed - there was a Walker biting on her left arm. Frankly, Michelle couldn't care less about her. She got herself into this situation in the first place. She stabbed the Walker in the head, then turned to the girl who was crying and holding up her arm. "See," Michelle said as she raised her knife. "If you weren't screaming, then we wouldn't even be in this situation, would we? Hold still." The knife came down, and so did the girl's arm. Michelle instructed another man to take the girl inside and wrap her arm up.

Michelle looked around at the people fighting off against the Walkers - everybody was there, including the newbies, except for one person. Where was Webster? She hoped he was okay. They had been friends since near the beginning of the zombie apocalypse, and she didn't want to lose anybody else.
She spotted him near the entrance of the hotel, along with that newbie from before. She'd have to ask her what her name was later, when everything wasn't going to s$#@. "You two having fun?" she asked, a slight smirk on her face. They were counting how many kills they each got. At least they were having fun, if fun was still something you could experience during a time like this.

"Listen, there's no way we can fend off all of these Walkers," Michelle sighed. She didn't want to let the hotel go, not yet. She had never had to experience a Walker invasion like this, not since the first day of the apocalypse. "We need to leave this place. Take everything we can - and find another place to stay for a while. I can lead you guys to another hotel, there's one up north. It'll take some time to get there though, so we'd better start moving."

She looked around, noticing that there were Walkers everywhere. There was no way that they would be able to go around the back of the hotel and escape, so they would have to go through the Walkers. "Everybody inside! I need three people at every door!" she yelled, trying to gain the attention of the people who were outside. Then she said to Webster, "I need you to spread Walker guts all over every single person in there. We're going to walk through the Walkers, and we aren't leaving anybody behind. Except for the fangirls. Them, we can leave behind."

"Um yeah, no problem but I would really appreciate it if you could help me seal the door. Just a suggestion" The girl who I handed my hatchet over to slides the hatchet through the door handles. My savior. I wouldn't last holding the doors any longer, they were really getting rowdy for fresh meat. Then I remember I was bit. No no no no, I need to cut this leg off quick. I lift my jeans up to reveal no bite marks. Wait, what? The hatchet girl said that I was lucky. Do I have like anti-bodies or like super regeneration? That would be sick, but I need a real explanation. "Hey, why didn't you cut my leg off when you had the chance?" I ask. The girl gestures to the body of the infected that took a chomp out of me. I walk over to see that it didn't have teeth. Wow, someone was very thoughtful before turning. Now I got a visual of them pulling out their teeth individually. Nope, nope, stop thinking like that brain, stop it. "Well thanks for not chopping my leg off. By the by, I'm Webster."

Julie agrees with my offer to find find Michelle together. We grab knives (what was ever left of them) from the kitchen and make our way outside. The group outside was still fighting infected, although the numbers of zombies didn't seem to diminish but rather grow. We need to execute plan b asap, or else all of our hard work would be in vain.

"EUN JI!! I LOVE YOU!!" "I CAN DIE FOR EUN JI I JUST WANT YOUR AUTOGRAPH!!" What the hell? I turn around to see a bunch of girls hover around the girl named Eun Ji while she gave out autographs. Jesus Christ, the girl is actually signing their papers, don't kill me. I honestly can't right now. "Oh my god! It's Eun Ji! We need to get her autograph!" I squeal. My little sister always fangirled over the most stupidest shows, like that anime about swimming. Seriously, a show about swimming and fanservice. I'm half glad this apocalypse put an end to those kind of fandoms. From what I just witnessed they're still crazy as ever. Julie laughs and we continue to find Michelle.

We cut through infected outside, assuming she would be in the front lines. Since she was nowhere to be found inside the hotel. The both of us started to keep count on how many infected we each kill. Bonus points for saving each other or saving another person. So far I had 10 and Julie had 12. For a teenager who seemed to be inexperienced she is doing extremely well.

Juliet tried to kill as many Walkers as she could. She would kick them in the back of the leg, and hit them in the back of the head, like her mother showed her, or she would help other people who were about to get bitten. She even sliced a zombie's head clean off. "Holy s$#@," she gasped as the Walker's head landed on the ground. "That was awesome."

Juliet's eyes widened as she heard an ear-piercing scream from inside the hotel, and she ran back inside to see what had happened. It turned out it was somebody that was about to get bitten, but he was saved. The guy's rescuer looked familiar. He was the same guy that gave Juliet his hatchet, she noticed.

Juliet's eyes darted to a group of kids, who were standing right in the middle of the battle, their faces wet with tears. They were probably scared out of their minds, even more than she was. She lead the kids to a corner of the room where there were no Walkers, and told them to stay there until the Walkers were gone. She didn't know exactly how long it would take to kill all of the Walkers, but she knew that it wouldn't be easy.

"I need help in the kitchen!" she heard. Juliet hesitated for a few seconds, then ran into the kitchen, where she saw the same man from before. There was a Walker inside as well, and it was about to bite his leg. She was going to warn him, but it was too late. "Oh no..." she said.

Juliet knew what to do if somebody was ever bitten, that was demonstrated for her just today in the hotel with that little boy. She looked down at the man's leg, and he used his other leg to bash the head of the Walker in. He didn't seem to have any weapons on him, which meant that only she would be able to do this. She didn't know the man at all, but he had given her his hatchet, so she felt like she had something to owe to him.

"Well f!@#," he said. But it was okay. All Juliet needed to do was just slice off his leg. That sounded like a simple task, but it was actually harder than it sounded. Here she was, with her hatchet in the air, about to slice off the leg of a guy she didn't even know. Then she saw it. His leg wasn't bleeding.

Juliet's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. This Walker bit him, so why wasn't he bleeding? She looked down to the Walker, and then she fully understood. It didn't even have teeth. Before they turned into a Walker, they probably pulled out all of their teeth so they couldn't turn anybody - how considerate.

"Holy s#$@ dude. You're lucky I don't need glasses, or else I would've cut off your leg," she almost laughed. Laughing during a zombie apocalypse? The shock was probably getting to her. "You are one lucky person, guy who gave me this hatchet. Thanks for that, by the way."

I stood there shocked with nothing in my hands. What the *#^! am I supposed to do?! I just see people killing walkers and I have too many #^!/ing fans! I love them but not now. This is not the time. The next thing I knew there was a mob and they surrounded me and I couldn't do anything. "YO!! I'm sorry I love each and every one of you but do you not see all these... these...THINGS?! Zombie like creatures?!" They looked around and shrugged and just tried to touch me or get my signature. All I hear was, "EUN JI!! I LOVE YOU!!" "I CAN DIE FOR EUN JI I JUST WANT YOUR AUTOGRAPH!!" etc etc.

I sighed and just gave my autographs. I bite my lip feeling people touching me everywhere and I felt as if I wasn't a person but just an object. I got pushed to the floor as I didnt say anything trying to get up. The next thing I knew there was someone grabbing my wrist pulling me up.

He pushed through the crowd forcibly and got me out of there taking me to some other room with weapons. He then got me a sword and a bow and arrow. He also gave me double pistols just in case. He fully equipped me with different weapons and supplies. I stared at him and I noticed how he was so *^$&ing y that I couldn't take my eyes off of him.

He finally looked at me as I got drawn to his mesmerizing eyes. "Are you okay Eun Ji?" I nodded. "Yes I am. Thank you....?" I bowed. "Bacon Mcy nice to meet you." We shook hands and I was very grateful to him. "Lets go. We have to fight the walkers. Dont get infected or killed. Just survive."

I nodded gaining courage. We ran out starting to fight. We had each others back and when we were fighting I heard him say,"I know this is $&^#ing random but... I like you Eun Ji." I smirked. "You're telling me this now?" "Yes. I thought you should know." "Well thats good because I like you too and you should know love at first sight just in case we don't get through this." I see a walker about to infect him and jump up and slice its head looking incredibly cool as he looked impressed.

"There is a hoard of zombies heading your way."
I widen my eyes in disbelief. This girl has to be kidding, she has got to. I turn to Michelle, her face turned completely pale. She quickly gained her composure, and began to tell everyone to get ready to defend the hotel. Michelle knew this day would come; she was prepared to fight. I on the other hand was not, this place will not last forever. So is it really worth defending from millions infected? No. A few would be fine sure, but thousands is not a thing we should deal with. While Michelle was formulating a plan with the others, I made a plan b in case the hoard was too much-- fall back and head anywhere but here. I know it sounds cowardly, but we don't really have a choice. Even when I confronted the others about the plan they all agreed for 'plan b' to be the last resort. I'm sure there'll be other places to take refuge.

I go outside to see a hella amount of infected. Holy !@#$. I need to look for Michelle. As I run back inside I see a young girl standing among the crowd with no weapon in hand. Was this girl a newbie? From the look on her face she was indeed. She won't survive one second without anything to defend her, "Geez kid, don't you know you're in a zombie apocalypse? Here," I pass her my hatchet. She didn't reply which was kinda embarrassing but that doesn't matter right now. "Just don't die out there," I mumble to myself.

Inside was utter mayhem. People were having mental break downs or was fighting. Probably some stuff about looting sh@#. My attention changes when I hear someone scream for help. It was the stripper dude with an infected trying to take a bite out of him. "Bacon hold on!" I grab one of the lamps on the table and run to his aid. I raise the lamp and smash the head of the infected. How did this one get inside? I go to the kitchen to see the back doors wide open. "The newcomer forgot to close the door," I say. With haste, I shut the door to prevent anymore infected to walk in. That could have been a problem. Then the infected starts to bang on the doors. "I need help in the kitchen!" I yell. Just as I call for help, I feel something bite my leg. It was an infected crawling on the floor. I shake it off and use my other leg to kill it while holding the doors shut. "Well f!@#." Today just .
Juliet Cormier 10 years ago
Juliet was about to answer the Michelle's question when another girl ran through the doors, interrupting her. She answered Michelle with, "Bruce is HYDRA," whatever that meant. Then she announced that a hoard of zombies was heading towards the hotel, and the room turned into complete and utter chaos.

Everybody grabbed for their weapons at once, and one person even screamed. She watched as Michelle's expression turned into one of indescribable fury, only fueled more by the person screaming. Now, Juliet was still a newbie, but even she knew that was stupid. Screaming would only attract more Walkers.

Juliet ran to the doors, where she could see a hoard of zombies making their way towards the hotel. "Oh my God," she gasped. "That is a s#!$load of Walkers." Now she wished she never came here in the first place. One zombie was enough for her, but an entire zombie army? She'd be surprised if she made it out of this alive.

Before she could even comprehend what was happening, she was forced outside by the group of people ready to fight against the Walkers. Juliet looked around confusedly at the people loading their guns with bullets and standing in a battle-ready pose with their weapons. She was not ready for this. She needed more time, and more training. All of these people were a lot braver than she was, because all she wanted to do right now was just go back to the time before all of this began. With her father, her sister, and her mother... her mother. That's who she needed right now.

A hatchet was shoved into Juliet's hands, snapping her out of her thoughts. It was a little heavy, but it was much better than the knife she was carrying around before. The Walkers were getting closer and closer now, and in a few seconds, sounds of gunshots and battle would be filling the air. Juliet tried to reassure herself that she was ready, and she wouldn't die, and eventually she would meet up with her mother again and they could find a safe place to live. But that was made impossible when her eyes spotted the familiar Walker.

The resemblance was unmistakable. The short black hair, the round face, the blue eyes, the yellow jacket... it was her mother. Somehow, the Walkers got to her. "Oh no," Juliet said. "Oh no, no, no, no." Tears threatened to fall from her eyes, and she wiped them away with her sleeve. This wasn't the time for crying. She knew something like this would happen eventually, and her mother told her what to do if it did. "If I do die," she would say, "don't let that control you. Let it fuel you. Julie, you are so full of potential. You just need to be strong and show it, okay? You know where to go. And I believe in you, baby girl."

Her mother was right. Juliet couldn't let her death take over her mind and turn her into something weak. She couldn't let what happened to her happen to the other kids in the hotel. She raised her hatchet. It was time to be strong for her sister, her father, and her mother.
