Chapter 11: Aerial Escape

"The plane is out there. Just need to get to it and we are home free. For now at least." Bill told the gang as each either patched themselves up, got more ammo or took a new health pack. Callie looked out of the window of the saferoom door and sees a different plane getting way too close to the ground. And not in the best. "Look!" She quickly took off the bar and opened the door. Everyone rushed out to see the crash of the plane as bits and pieces went everywhere. Zoey covered her mouth and Louis's jaw dropped to the floor. Bill and Francis just said nothing as they make it to the fuel tank. "Hey you guys! Think you can help out?" The pilot spoke through the walkie talkie of a dead man.

Louis takes the walkie talkie and talked to the pilot. "Anything that will get us out of here for a while." "Alright! Gas me up, and we can fly out of here! The pump is gonna make a huge racket, so make sure you're ready for a fight before you start her up." The pilot instructed the survivors. Everyone took a good look at their surroundings. Bill and Zoey got out some propane tanks and oxygen tanks, spreading them out. Louis took a molotov. When given the signal that they were ready, Francis nodded at Callie, and she turned the lever to start pumping gas into the plane. "That did it! I can hear the truck pumping! Hold them off for me while I fuel up!"

A cry of zombies came out of the distance, and  everyone came together. "Alright. Let's get this going! We'll be out of here in no time!" Zoey called as zombies came from everywhere. Left, right, front, above, it didn't matter. Bill blew up one of the propane tanks that had a gas can next to it. Both exploded and lit on fire. Callie began to think about her friends. They're out there without a leader. Hopefully she thought that they banded together with Jada as second hand and worked together to do something.

(In Savannah)

Jada finished taking out some zombies below them. They have been living out in the abandoned radio tower and are trying to keep alive. Tina scratched off another line on the wall to signify another day gone by. "What are we even doing with ourselves?" She asked the group while eating a cookie. All of the girls had changed up their looks. Either cutting their hair or putting it up entirely. Their clothing was also changed but there was still signs of their old band stuff.

"Yeah. We just left our leader alone like cowards." Katie shakes her head. Jemma sighed. "Alright. I'll admit that it was shitty of me to suggest we just floor it." She had found some overalls that she liked while getting supplies for everyone and had been wearing them since. Holly was just silently crying in the corner of the place. Jada came back up to everyone talking about the situation at hand. They had let their leader down. And she knew this.

"Alright. We need to stop moping around. We all had a hand in abandoning our leader like that. We need to get out of here." Jada slammed her hand down on the desk. "We need to get to the meet up place that we promised to get to." She told the girls in a stern yet commanding tone. Katie stood up and nodded. "Yeah. Banding together. Like we always do. We can get through it together." The girls gather up their weapons into their holsters. They also grab separate walkie talkies so they could communicate with Callie on their way and headed down the ladder.

"Tank is almost full people. We are just about good to go." The pilot called to the survivors who had finished gunning down a shit ton of zombies. "Cal?! Cal!! Are you still out there?" Holly called her up on the walkie talkie. "Yeah. I'm still around. Now isn't the best time." Raging footsteps were heard and roars as well. A tank was coming. Callie took a hold of the mounted machine gun and began firing away at the tank, almost screaming bloody murder. The others fired their weapons at the tank. When it got close they began running back while firing as it got closer. Then it dropped dead. "Yes!"

The plane started up again. "We're out of here!" Zoey cheered. "ALRIGHT! We are fueled up! GET IN!!" The pilot called to them. The back door to the plane opened for them and everyone got in before the plane took off. Holly started cheering in laughter. "Oh Callie Hansen, You are my hero!" She grinned and gave a "Whoo!!" Callie ruffled her short hair and grinned. "We are out of here." "H-hey! You know, Jemma actually just cracked a smile." Tina talked with her as well.

Francis sat back and just watched the blazing ground below. "I don't know where we are going but hey. At least we are out of that shithole." Another zombie for another day.
