DEAD END

Talking Zombie

"Oh f**k!" exclaimed the man in a cowboy hat as he stared continuously at Nick. "The bullet is f*****g kidding me," he added as he fired yet another shot at Nick. Gripped in fear, the man's boys started falling back, "What kind of man are you?" the man in a cowboy hat asked as he flees from Nick.

Seeing the bullies are gone, Judy slowly walked up to Nick who was speechless and constantly staring at his body, "What type of man are you?" she asked sternly with her eyes fixed on Nick. "I have no f*****g idea," Nick replied still staring at his body. "First, you were bitten and you didn't turn. Now you are shot and here you are still standing with me like a god," Judy laments as her fear for Nick grew.

"You don't have to be afraid of me," said Nick. "I have no option than to leave before you turn against me," said Judy as she started drawing away from Nick. "We need to stick together, that's how we gonna survive," said Nick as he glances at Judy. "What if you turn into one of those dead walkers in the night and eat my brains," Judy asked sternly as she fixes her eyes on Nick. "If I turn, you can kill me before I even get to you," Nick replied with his head down. "Dude, no f*****g bullet can kill you. I just found that out now," said Judy without hesitation with fear written over her face. "Give me time to prove to you I am not the bad guy," said Nick. "What if you are wrong?" Judy asked without relenting. "Then do what you can to me but right now, we need to stick together. Where else could you go? We need each other to survive," Nick laments as he turned towards his boat. "If you change your mind, I will be waiting for you inside the boat," he added making his way inside the boat.

Curtis on his way ran out of fuel as he fearlessly continued his journey on foot. Getting to a wood house, he decided to camp in there for the night. Slowly he walked into the wood house with his rifle drawn out. Opening the front door, he engaged in a room to room search to make sure he was alone. After feeling at home by himself, he threw himself on an old couch as he relaxes his back.

Not quite long a group of thugs walked in with their guns pointed at him, "Don't make a move, soldier," said the leader of the thugs. "Here already belongs to us," he added with his shotgun pointed at Curtis. "I never knew," Curtis replied. "Now you know," said the leader of the thugs. "Now get lost," the leader of the thugs added.

"This riffle belongs to us now," said one of the thugs as Curtis stands to his feet to leave. "You can keep it," Curtis replied as he gently let go of the riffle. "Nice decision," said the leader of the thugs as they all laughed out loud scoffing at Curtis.

"Why are you staring that way?" Nick asked Judy. "Nothing," Judy replied as she looks away. "You can't be terrified at me," Nick said. "Don't blame me if I am because a lot of weird s**t is going on now," said Judy. "How did you get such power to be immune to the zombies' bites?" Judy asked with curiosity. "I told you before, I have no f*****g idea," Nick replied. "You were shot at today and nothing happened. That son of a b***h hit you with his gun and got slammed to your boat without you touching him," Judy laments as she stared at Nick with curiosity. "What the f**k are you?" Judy added waiting for an answer. "I still don't know," said Nick.

Around midnight, Judy was already asleep while Nick was going through the maps. Suddenly, he started hearing footsteps approaching. Without hesitation, he pepped through the window, "f**k me!" he exclaimed as he quickly tapped on Judy to wake up. "What's going on?" Judy asked yawning. "Keep it down, we got company," Nick replied as he quickly picked up a fish hook. "You want to fight them off with a fishhook?" Judy asked staring at the fish hook. "You have a better idea?" Nick asked with his eyes fixed on Judy. "Sail the goddamn boat off the shore," said Judy. "You are right! What am I even thinking?" Nick replied as he slowly makes his way to the side door of the boat. "And where do you think you are going?" Judy asked. "To sail the boat off the shore I need to untie it from the wood first," Nick replied. "You will get caught," said Judy as she expresses concern. "I will be fast," said Nick as he slowly held the door handle.

Before Nick could open the door he heard a loud banging at the door, "Oh s**t! They know we are here," said Nick. "Of course I know you are here," a voice said slowly in a groaning tone from the outside. "We are screwed," Nick laments as he turned to Judy. "What do we do?" Nick asked. "Nothing comes to mind," Judy replied as the banging kept coming. "Who the hell are you?" Nick asked as he leans on the side door of the boat. "Open up and find out," said the voice again slowly in a growing tone as the banging continued.

Not quite long, the banging stopped, "The banging has stopped, where has he gone to?" Judy asked with curiosity. "I am right here," said the voice as he broke the glass window with his hand, grabbing Judy by the neck. "Oh f**k!" Judy exclaimed as she struggles to escape the grasp. "Nick, do something!" she added as she continuously hit the hand.

Nick with the fish hook approaches as he lifted it up to stab the hand, Judy started hitting the hand harder and tried to free herself. With Nick's help she was able to get away from the hand, "this is the second time you are saving my ass," said Judy. "Fight now, thank me later," said Nick as he noticed the man was already forcing his way in through the broken window.

Before Nick could use his fish hook against the man attacking them, the man already made his way in as he quickly stands to his feet, "We could have made this very easy but now you have to feel the pains when I crush your bones and eat your brains," said the man as he made a spitty hiss with his eyes on Nick and Judy. "Oh my gosh, He is a goddamn zombie!" Judy exclaimed gazing at the man's rotten face and neck with part of his skin fallen apart as she started taking some steps backward.

"That's impossible, zombies can't talk," Nick argued. "Who will go first?" the man asked with groans as he stared constantly at them. "Nick, do something," Judy cried out loud. "You wanna screw with me? Come f**k me!" said Nick as he boldly walked up to the man. Scoffing at Nick the man displayed his rotten teeth as he started dragging his body parts towards Nick, "You might be right about this asshole, he might be a zombie," said Nick with his eyes fixed on Judy. "Who are you calling an asshole, asshole?" said the man as he made a spitty hiss lunging at Nick and struggling to bite Nick.
