Chapter 9
968 Words
Our nights sleep is interrupted by a gunshot and loud worried voices down below. And right overhead was a helicopter hovering right above us.
(Ashlen) "Run! That's the government... They've found us!
We do as told, not wanting to find out what they'll do to us. But are stopped dead in our tracts as we can see some government officials herding radioactive zombies up the stairs to the roof. All the exits are blocked by oncoming zombies.
So we turn to the only way left, towards the government bastard's.
(Ashlen) "Don't do anything stupid... Follow my lead."
(Ashlen) "What the hell do you want Commander Asguard?"
(Commander Asguard) "We want you to join us! In the new world... You are special and so is your brother. Speaking of your brother, where is he? We need to tell him what we told you."
Without thinking clearly, I step out into the open so he can see me. But instantly regret it as this big body builder literally jumps from the helicopter which is flying at least 100 feet in the air. But he lands like he was a cat, like he was as light as a feather.
(Me) "Yes, I am her brother... And she hasn't told me anything about being special. And by special by any chance do you mean immune to the virus? Because I swear I should of caught it by now. "
(Commander Asguard) "Wow, he is really smart! But not smarter than me! How old are you?
(Me) Um, seventeen why does that matter?"
(Commander Asguard) "It matters because you aren't smarter than me, now-one is smarter than me!"
(Me) "Wow, some preppy biotch has got got some ego issues. And its gonna get smashed because I may just be smarter than you. Because I am seventeen and you are what 25? And acting like a 12 year old girl that just found out that her crush is crushing on her best friend."
(Comander Asguard) "Oh, you'll regret that! Guards, take them in. And use the serum to knock them out. (And do some testing with them)."
†‡†***
I awake from what felt like a ten hour sleep, to find myself in a very smelly dark room. I then notice where the smell is coming from. To my left it a pit full of decaying corpses that look In worse shape than any zombie possibly could... It looks like if I touched the skin, my finger would go strait through. I go to test this theory but am stopped by my sisters voice.
(Ashlen) "I wouldn't do that if I were you. "
(Me) Oh, thank god you're here... Where are we?
(Ashlen) " They took us some place underground, that's all I could find out. The thing they used to knock us out, well it didn't work on me. But I faked it to try to see. But they shoved us in a trunk of a car so I didn't know which way we went."
(Me) "Okay, You're keeping something from me. What is it, I'm you're brother, you can tell me. "
(Ashlen) (almost in tears) "Well, when I went to find you... I saw and herd things that I didn't want to hear or see. I saw that lady tell another military person that we were to be kept alive. But we were to be tested on. "
Just as that was said Commander Asguard, walked in.
(Commander Asguard) "Okay, I'm sorry that had to happen to you guys but we can't have any chances of you guys escaping. You guys may be the undoing to the Zombie apocalypse, that, yes we accidentally caused. Everyone exposed to the zombies have turned within an hour of being exposed to their germs... But you 4 kids haven't turned yet... I understand now that the other two kids were vaccinated by a cure you guys have...where did you get it. "
(Me) "We got it from your partners. At area 51. Because they were the people trying to get nerds and geeks to save the world and kill the Zombies for them. But we found out that the injections that they were giving us was some kind of prevention against the virus... And we snooped around a bit and found that they already had a cure developed and they were planning to kill us by taking all of our blood to recreate the antibodies in our blood system that has kept us alive for so long. And once they were to do that they were gonna use our lives to cure the infected.
(Commander Asguard) "Well, we won't kill you for your blood... In fact all we need is a few samples, with your permission of course. And we can create a cure of our own. And even give it to your friends who are infected as we speak... The girl is at stage 2 and is trying to kill us... And the guy is only at the first stage. They are both under heavy supervision as the virus seemed to have mutated itself inside of the female to where she is indestructible .. We have tried to kill her, but the virus is preventing her from dying."
(Me) "Well that shouldn't be happening, as she was given the cure... And zombies have been literally ignoring her. But the cure said to give it to her every 3 months and it has been 6 months as of today. We have another cure for her... We just have been saving it for if one of us get bit."
(Commander Asguard) "Well, if you hand it to one of the guards, he can put it in a tranquilizer gun and shoot it at her. "
(Me) "Okay, let's give it a shot. "
