Chapter 7: Crazy People
Crack of dawn, we reached towards the middle of the city. Macey stopped the truck on the breaks for a minute.
"What's wrong, Macey?" I asked.
"Going to check with Boron for a minute." Macey replies while unbuckling then opening the truck door. She hops then closes it. Macey heads to the back of the truck where Boron is.
"Enjoying the back?" She asks.
"Yes," Boron replies.
"Okay, good. We are middle of the city, it's about to get real rough here. We are near another quarantine called Section B which is worst than Section A." Macey says.
Boron moves his neck around to crack it. "Let's get some of this!" He yells out. Macey goes back to the driver spot and starts up the truck. She floors it.
I rolled up my window. No zombies nor hunters coming after us yet. The truck kept on speeding up faster and faster. Macey hit some broken down abandon cars, making them flip over to their side.
"Slow down, Macey." Elissa says.
"Nein!" Macey refuse. She picks up the speed. "We are getting close to the North Dokata borders. Fasten your seat belts."
Next, Elissa grunted like she's under stress. "My skin is burning." Elissa groans.
"Give me your arm." I commanded. She immediately obeys.
I then lifted up the sleeve and it reveals the skin is starting to get dry and cracked.
"She's getting physical signs." I said. "Elissa is now getting physical symptoms of the infection."
"Watch out!" I hear Harper yell at Macey. I turned around and my view I saw a road block with tanks filled with survivors that look like they are terrorists.
"Oh shit!" Macey slams on her breaks.
Bang! A shot was heard from one of the cannons. A flaming ball was coming towards us.
"Get out of the car!" I yelled. I opened my door and jumped out and soon Elissa. Macey and Harper and Carlos jumped out of the backseat. Boron jumped from the back of the truck. Aliza was left in there while the cannon ball hit the truck. A major bright ball of orange flame filled my view as I looked back while laying down upon the road. I felt the heat of the explosion. I can hear the sound like a bomb of roaring flames even Aliza's screams.
I use my hands to crawl myself to stand back up and look towards the border of the survivor terrorists.
"You arseholes, we are trying to get out of this mess!" I yelled at them.
Next, Elissa screeched like the infected. She began to charge at them. They aimed the tank towards her.
"Across the line, you'll be dead." One of the terrorists seethes.
"This is worst than 9/11." Carlos says.
"You were never alive then." Macey replies.
"I heard about it in my dreadful lifetime." Carlos explains.
"Well, I learned about it more than you do." Macey says.
Boron stands up with a angry look on his face. "Sounds like you want to kill," he says.
"Aaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhh!" I hear the screeches of the infected right behind us.
"We need to get out of here!" I yelled out. I turned back even though I didn't want to face the death and pain. The infected charging at us.
Boron takes his knife out of his pocket. Soon, Harper and Carlos took out their knives. Macey and I took out our guns. Elissa took out a knife.
The mob seemed way smaller than last time.
"Okay, make every slash and shot count." I said. "Don't get infected on this round."
"The infected, take all of them out!" One of the terrorists survivors yell out. I can hear the movement of the tanks aiming towards the zombies. We charged at the infected. Another round of zombies has begun.
Macey shot every zombie in the head or the chest. They hit the ground. I guess she take making a shot count very seriously.
Carlos was being a chicken and ran off to one of the abandon skyscrapers to get away from the mob.
"What a idiot?" Macey says shooting the zombies. "Well, if he gets infected, it's not our fault."
Harper was getting scared of being infected, so she sliced every zombie that came near her.
"Another day, not being infected." She says while stabbing a zombie in the head.
I shoot the zombies where it hurts. If it doesn't work, I bash them with a knife. What do you say a girl can't take out zombies? A myth.
Elissa was getting more like agressive every minute. She screaming and bashing the zombies with her fist. She's infected as well and she's going against her side.
Macey brushes the sweat off her forehead. The zombie screeches were faint in the distance. She looked around. "Where's Boron?" She asks.
I turned around and I saw him heading towards the border terrorists. "He's heading towards the terrorists borders!" I pointed to him where he was at. Macey turned to him.
"Boron, bash them out!" She yells out.
"Get lost, freak!" One of the terrorists yelled at Boron. Boron smiled. He took out a gun that he held in his pocket. He aimed it at the terrorists on top of the tank in the middle. His eyes were focused on the gas tank.
"If you shoot, say goodbye to you life!" A terrorist snickers.
"You are killing people that are survivors." Boron says. "You are selfish morons. Now, sweet dreams." Boron moved his gun and fired at the gas tank that was beside the tank.
Boom! A explosion of flames burst from the tank. Soon, the one to the left roared into the flames. Boron laughs as the tanks burst in explosion of flames from the fire. "Gas ignites." He laughs. "Have fun burning alive!"
He then look towards me. I gave him the stare that he was a pyscho. Boron looks ahead. More zombies and the infected were coming.
"Guys get pass the flaming border now, when the flames go down, we are screwed." Boron says.
"Are you crazy?" Harper looks at him. "We will burn alive."
"No, it's called keeping your surviving!" Boron replies. Boron jumps pass through the flaming tanks.
"I won't have to worry about this hell again." Harper sighs and jogs pass through the tanks. "Ow, it's hot!" She squeals.
"Suck it." Boron said to her.
I turned around. "Macey, Elissa!" I tapped upon Elissa's shoulder. "Follow Boron and Harper. We have no choice than just get killed here."
"Okay then, let's sprint through." Macey lowers her gun and begans running to the flames. I hold onto Elissa hands and we started running.
Once we were between the flames, it was very hot. My vision can only see flaming bright orange colors. I cough as a went through the flames. I passed through, I felt cold air and my vision shows more of the road with few houses and forests. Elissa and I catched up to Macey, Harper, and Boron. Boron stopped to look at us.
"Where's Carlos?" He asks.
"He was being a chicken and he went to one of the abandon skyscrapers in the city. We can leave without him, it's his fault for making that decision." Macey replies.
By the time we entered the wooden borders of North Dakota, a rain picked and soaked the ground. Thunder and lightning roared the sky. We turned off road to walk to a dirt driveway. There was a barn and a house. Ash Lo beat us there.
"How did you get here so fast?" I asked.
"I sneaked around those terrorists before I saw Boron blew them up." Ash replies.
"Now that's how you become a ninja." Boron commented.
"The house is about to cave in, we have to rest into the barn tonight." Ash says.
Elissa slide open the large wooden log barricading the door. Next, she use her strength to open the barn doors wisely.
We walked and we heard Harper squealing. We saw a farmer man hanging himself from the beams.
Elissa jumped and tugged at the hunged farmer. The rope snaps and the body falls to the ground.
"What is that?" Harper asks.
"A farmer." Elissa replies with a raspy voice while expecting the farmers body. "He committed suicide because he didn't want to be infected. I can see bites on his arms and through his coat. I'll get rid of this body." Elissa picks it up and throws it outside. She slams the barn doors closed. It was dark and creepy.
"We have no food and supplies left due to the terrorists burning them all." I sighed. "What are we going to do?"
"Barging into houses and stores and rob some crap. There's also malls here." Macey suggests.
"What quarantine we are near?" Ash asks.
"I don't have the damn map, so I don't know." Macey replies.
"We are probably not that far from Section B quarantine. We are heading towards the North Dokata quarantines. If we see one in the distance, get out the sight." I said.
"What about Carlos?" Harper asks.
"That chicken, he's the one who ran away from the mob from fighting back. He's probably getting bit by much of the mob inside one the skyscrapers in the South Dokata." Macey answers. "I never give a damn about him."
"Well, he's part of the group." Boron says. "We must protect every member as we could."
"Bravery is what it takes to be in the group. He made a action that was going to haunt him for the rest of his life, not my tarnation problem." Macey says. Then she rolled her eyes. "It's storming out there. I guess we have to wait until it stops and it's dry a bit."
The corner, we moved the stack of hay bale into a hay bed. We lay down next to each other. Elissa sighs.
"I can't sleep, I'll stay up to guard." She gets up.
"Whatever you prefer, it's your choice." I replied trying to relax upon the hay bale. The rain and the thunder hit the barn ceiling. It was not distracting me and it's tempting me to fall asleep.
