7 MASSACRE

"We are going to go with the usual tactics. Mom, you will take the roof and Jen, take the tree house," I said with the usual calmness I use in critical situations like this, "Shoot anything that comes within the vicinity."

"Wait! No, you can't go out there just like that!" Mom exclaimed, "Please, sweetie. You should..."

"No," I shook my head, "I know the risk, but... Haaa... We don't know how many of them are out there. You two guard the house, and I'll do some recon. Oh, they might be using sniper rifles, so don't expose yourselves. Wait for the traps to go out and let them come within the second line. Then take them out. If we are lucky, they might not come this deep within the forest. Finally, if things get dangerous, I'll send the signal, use the tunnel to get out, don't wait for me. Take everything you need, and burn the rest. You two got the map and compass I gave you, right?"

Mom and Jenny both nodded.

[Bang!] [Bang!] Two more shots were fired somewhere outside.

"You better not die out there or I'll kill you," Jenny gave me a stern look as she gave me a tight hug. Mom did the same.

"Ok, time to go. See you, girls, soon," I checked the ammo, the magazines were filled, the safety was off, and the grip was set. Everything was prepared, it's go time.

[3rd Person POV]

Karl left the cabin house and made his way toward the source of the gunshots. Hawkeye's skills which are now fused with his body gave him a great advantage. He stealthily ran through the forest, while keeping an eye on his surroundings. After covering a certain distance he saw two men and a woman standing beside the old water station. The woman was checking on three dead deer that they had shot dead.

Hiding behind a wild tree, he began to examine them.

The woman had blonde hair, hazel eyes, and a large scar on her right cheek and she was wearing a tactical outfit. She looks like 27 or somewhere around that age and from the exposed muscles on her arms and legs, Karl could say she is pro athletic and strong. She was carrying a sniper rifle and two military knives. While those two men were carrying heavy assault rifles and siege shields. They were wearing heavy armored vests and the same military tactical outfits. But what made Karl surprised was the size and build of those two men. They were two almost the same height, were towering and they were as muscular as Arnold Schwarzenegger in his younger days.

'Motherfuckers looks strong!' Karl thought. 'But considering their build and weapons, they are slow as fuck as for that lady, although she's a sniper, considering her leg muscles, she is definitely one of those close-range fighters.'

With those thoughts in mind, a smile crept on his face. He wanted to injure them just like the quest mentioned, but as he was about to take his shot, he noticed a little glint, coming from far across their location. 'Sniper!' His instincts kicked in and he hid himself behind the tree. But he didn't stay there more than ten seconds and quickly crawled past the next two trees and hid behind the third one.

His eyes fell to the ground. 'A zombie rabbit!" Karl grabbed the rabbit by its legs before it could jump at him. He broke it's neck with a little twist, but the zombie fucker was still alive. He threw it near the tree he was hiding behind just a moment ago. 'Lucky me.'

[Bang!] A bullet pierced through the tree he was hiding behind just a moment ago.

'There are more! Hahaha! Damn, these fuckers,' Karl smiled in the face of danger as he felt a weird rush in his veins. 'If it weren't for the quest...' He took out his handguns and was ready. He could hear the other three coming toward that tree to check.

"Did that hag really shoot past my face?!" The blonde grumbled in anger.

"He might be dead," One of those two bodybuilders said.

"What are you talking about? We swept the place. There was no one," The blonde walked past the bush and noticed the rabbit. She picked up the little zombie by its ears, "See, just a fucking rabbit. Seesh! Wasting a bullet. Told you she should retire. Hag's eyesight is getting worse," She mumbled.

"Sandra, stop speaking shit about her. She contributed enough for the team and you know that," One of the two men with a heavy accent replied.

Karl looked at them. The second tree was blocking that sniper's sight. She won't be able to take a blind shot. And those three's backs were right before him. 'Yeah, right. Hag? She got better eyesight than you mofos.' He aimed his guns at their exposed parts and shot them without any hesitation.

The silencer on his guns did the job of muffling the sounds of the gunshots. Six shots were fired. Two in the blondie's legs, and four shots for those two guys. Two in each of their side necks.

"ARGGGG!!!" The blonde stumbled forward, followed by a loud painful scream.

While, the two big men tightly grabbed their necks, trying to stop the bleeding.

Karl took this chance and quickly made a circle around the forest, going toward that hidden sniper. The sniper lady was too good. Instead of panicking or trying to save her comrades, she began to shoot at Karl with deadly precision. But Karl dodged them with ease, by hiding behind the trees, and for some reason, every time he saw a glint, he knew where that bullet would hit next. He moved fast, maneuvering through the thick forest while being shot by the mysterious lady.

'Why can't I fucking kill him!? How the heck is he dodging my shots?!' She asked, even though she was scared a little by the moves the man was displaying, the rifle in her hands continued shooting and reloading without pause. 'He is getting close. Good! Come to mommy, kid.' An evil smile crept upon her face.

The reason was simple. It's because the place where she was hiding didn't have any trees or objects to hide behind. It was a new watch post that they built just a few hours ago and there were fifteen armed men around her. The moment he shows himself, they will rush in and chop him up. Since bullets are used for emergency purposes, most prefer to use melee and other weapons for killing zombies and humans.

Karl reloaded his guns and dashed for the sniper. He got a feeling that there might be more surprises waiting for him, yet, he didn't feel like he'd lose against anyone.

After ten long minutes, he finally came out in the open. There was a new outpost with around fifteen or more people. The trees around that place were cut and used to make barricades. And for him, an entire gang of fifteen people were waiting for him.

"Boys, try to catch him alive. But I don't mind if he loses one or two limbs," The sniper lady commanded.

Karl looked up at the watchtower. "A sexy milf! How dare that blonde call her a hag?!" He yelled, pointing his finger at the brunette milf. "You, wait there for me. I'm gonna clean up these brutes and then, we'll have a nice conversation... Oh!" He shot at her sniper rifle and the assault rifle on her side, "Don't even think of shooting. Just stay there..."

'The fuck! Such aim!' She was shocked to see how perfect his aim was and also wondered why didn't he shoot her. He could have shot her dead right there, yet, he destroyed her guns instead. 'He's definitely some hot shot, and the way he's acting and all...' She got excited. 'Show me what you can do against these fifteen trained men.'

"Get him!"

With a loud roar, the fifteen armed men carrying melee weapons, charged toward Karl.

"Nice! Thank you, chums," Karl shot the first seven men on their knees, injuring them, and with that, his new quest has been completed.

[Ping!!] The quest screen popped up before his eyes.

*****

----

Survival Mission 2/5: Loot the outpost

Reward: 1x Bow, 50x Poison Arrows

Failure: NIL

*****

Two short swords appeared in Karl's hands as soon as he put his guns back in his holsters. Those vibranium short swords were curved like sabers, but they were extremely sharp. The two blades fit perfectly in Karl's palms and he could wield them effortlessly, as though the two blades were an extended part of his body.

A dagger flew toward him...

[Clank] Karl countered it with his new swords. He rushed in. He still got eight more guys to injure or... Now that the quest is over, why should he just injure them when he can just kill the rest of these meatheads?

Karl rushed in.

Two machetes appeared before his face, with a swift slash, and two arms flew up in the air with streams of blood spraying in the air. He didn't even blink and continued to evade and chop off their arms. Some from wrists while some from elbows. No matter how fast they were or the direction they attacked, none of their attempts worked as their arms flew before they could reach the teenager before them.

One got his belly sliced off and his internal organs splattered out on the gorund.

'He's too fast, it's hard to predict the direction he will take,' The female sniper gulped a mouthful of saliva, wondering how that 19 or 20-year-old-looking boy could take on all those men by himself and those moves... 'He didn't even blink for a second since his arrival, not to mention... That man. He doesn't have a bead of sweat. He is used to killing and fighting like that.'

"ARGGHHH!!" One of the remaining four tried to use the tower ladder, but his effort failed the moment one of his legs got amputated. He fell face first with a loud cry and wail.

The remaining two took out their guns and began to shoot at Karl. He quickly picked up one bloody body of their comrades and used him as a shield as he pressed in.

"Aim for his head. Shoot!" They yelled. But the bullets stuck their comrade.

As soon as he came within their range, he threw the meat shield on the ground and sliced apart their guns with his right sword and...

[Splatt!!!] His left sword sliced off their heads, right off their necks.

Those two headless bodies stumbled for a few seconds before falling like marionettes with the strings cut. Spray of blood spewed out like a fountain as their body twitched.

The ground was soaked in blood and severed body parts as painful screams and agony filled the area.

Karl wiped off the blood from his face on his sleeves and looked at that brunette milf with a cold stare.

"Haha..." She let out a laugh as fear gripped her heart, "We picked the wrong forest to scavenge, eh? By the way, who the fuck are you?" Her knees shivered in fear. All that excitement disappeared from her face.

AN: I was reading an abandoned ff about Hollywood on Scribble**hub and got an idea. Should I add celebrities to this fic? It would be like a world where the celebs from Earth are there alongside the zombies and heroes.
