9 Chapter 9

I was about to target practice on the rooftop of the gun store when I heard a gunshot. I thought there might be a survivor. I stored my AR-15 and pulled out my colt M4 rifle. I used my senses to pinpoint the location I heard another gunshot and I marked the location it was only a few blocks away.

I ran toward that location whenever I encounter a horde of zombies on the streets I used my grapple gun to get on top of the roof. I only had a problem while swinging across the building because I kept making the same mistake of crashing like George of the jungle or when Spiderman tried to make his first swing but I got the hang of it.

I found the place, a small group of zombies around 8 or 9 gathered around one place. I used my senses and found a person inside the property. I aimed my rifle at the zombies and shot every last one of them down before more would come and break into the place. Before I would go in there I decided to change my clothes, because that person might start asking questions about my outfit.

  I could tell them I am part of the black op unit but who would believe a teenager is part of the black ops unit. I wore my t-shirt, cargo pants, military boots, leather gloves, and jacket. I stored my grapple gun inside my inventory. I equip my pistols Glock 22 and 26, tanto knife, police vest, and M4 rifle. Before I go in, I decided to load two Mark 7 desert eagles 357 magnums and a 12 gauge autoloader shotgun Benelli M2. I put them in my backpack just in case I need them as a backup and stored it in my inventory.

The front door was obviously sealed, I went to the back door it was also sealed shut. I climbed to the window of the first floor to get in, I was in a flat. I quietly looked and found no one. As I was about to use my senses someone pointed a gun at the back of my head."Don't move "said the person pointing a gun at me, it was a girl's voice.

"Turn around... I said turn around"

I turned around and looked at her. She had a fair skin color, dark red colored hair, blue eyes, and a pretty face. She is around 5 foot 6 inches and by the looks of her body around 50 to 51 kg. She was wearing a brown leather jacket, over her white shirt, black jeans, and brown long boots. She was sweating and there were dark circles around her eyes. I also looked at her hands they were a bit red. I looked at her gun she was holding a Kimber 1911 pistol.

"Rest assured I mean you no harm," I said that pointing my hands up.

"Who are you? What do you want?" she asked.

"There is no point in pointing that gun at me"

"Yeah and why's that"

"First I have no intention of harming you and second..." I looked at the side and quickly snatched the gun from her hand.

" This gun is empty" there were no bullets in the chamber and the magazine. I gave her the gun back" take it".She looked at me, her hands were shaking"take it".She took her gun back.

"like I said I have no intention of hurting"

"Who are you?"

"someone with a heartbeat who doesn't want to eat you"

I used my senses to see if there was anyone else, she was alone. While I was using my senses there was a horde of zombies coming towards this area. They were drawn here from the noise.

"We need to get out of here"

"Why?" she asked.

"Well there is a horde coming towards this place"

"How do you know that?"

"Your gun draws them here and I saw a great number of them on my way here".

I went downstairs."Do you have a car?"

"Yeah there is one in the garage" we went to the garage. The door to the garage was locked and it opened from a passcode"Hey what's the passcode? I asked her.

"I don't know this is the landlady's garage"

I used my vision and it took only three tries to open the code.

"How did u do that? you knew the landlady"

"no just skill"

We went into the garage and saw the landlady's car. It was a red Austin Martin sports car" that's the landlady's car'

"Yeah I think so "

"Wow she must have been some lady, get your stuff quick I'll start the car"

She went to get her stuff, I found the keys in a drawer. I opened and start the car. I grabbed the remote to the garage door.

"Hurry up get in"she quickly came and got in. I opened the garage door and we drove off. I was driving us to my place. And she started to talk.

"Hey! What's your name?" she asked.

"Niam,Niam Walker. What's yours?

"Jean Fox" she answered, "So where are we going?"

"A safer place my place"

"You from around here?Niam"

"Yeah, I was born here. You?"

"No, I'm from Elm town I came here to apply for college. My daddy thought it would be best if I took this opportunity for myself"

"Sounds like a smart man. Say you work at a garage or an auto shop or something?"

"Yeah, how can you tell?"

"Your hands look rough from places. By the looks of it, you have been handling tools?"

"Yeah my daddy owns an Auto shop. He opened up his own after his retirement from the military".

"He was in the military. Did he taught u how to shoot a gun?"

"Yeah, we used to go hunting and he also took me to the gun range from time to time. Say I wanted to ask you how did you know my gun was empty?"

"Good question, See you have a Kimber 1911 45 ACP pistol. That contains 7 shots in the mag and one round in the chamber. I at least heard 7 shots and you fired killing 4 zombies if you had an extra mag you would have killed the other 4 as well who gathered at your door. Plus that gun is not even yours".

"How can you tell that?"

"Your hands were a little red, you had a hard time shooting that gun. That's why your aim was a bit off otherwise you would have killed the other 4 as well plus if you actually owned that gun you would have an extra mag for backup."

"Unbelievable. you can tell that by just looking at my hands..."

"and the corpses. For a girl who never fired a 45 caliber you made an excellent shot, you shot those 4 down with a head shot. I have to say that's pretty impressive."

"Thanks for the compliment".she said that while smiling.

"We're almost there"

Just as we were almost there. I saw something standing in the middle of the road. I stopped my car." what the why'd u stop" she asked.

"What the hell is that?" I was looking at an 8 feet tall bulky undead holding a boulder.

"Jean out of the car now"

We both got out of the car, it threw a boulder at us and crushed our car.

"God damn it," I said looking at the undead."Now I have to deal with this".
