Survivors

This chapter is dedicated to @bad_ass23 for her lovely comments.

Binna's car started to slow down but she still gave it her very best. One of them came leaping to her car and she immediately marched the break with all force, causing the zombie fly off from the car. Without wasting a second, she quickly marched the car's accelerator and sped off. Kim, Justin, Kate and Kenji were all shooting from the sun-roof windows from their various cars. It still wasn't enough to stop them.

"Get back in." Justin ordered them to get in a high tone voice.

Before Kate could shut the sun-roof window, one had already jumped on their car and was now forcing it way in through the sunroof window. Kenji, Kate and Mr Choi fought with all they had. It almost bit Kate, but Kenji was fast enough to use the matchet and slaughter the zombies hand. Just as they expected, they witnessed with their own two eyes how the zombies hand was regenerating quickly. They were already out of bullets in their guns and before they'd start loading in more bullets, the one above have already snuggled it way in. But Kenji was fast enough to shove him off very hard using the back of his gun. The zombie rolled away from the car. In just a second, they saw the zombie back on his feet and was now chasing after Smith's car that was right behind them.

All this while, Binna had kept her eyes fixed on the road and trying to see if there was some other place to hide from the sea of those zombies that was drastically chasing them and her fuel tank was draining. Meanwhile, Smith had marched the break with fear as one got on his car.

"No, no, no, no...." They screamed as the car twirled around coming to a stop. Justin didn't waste a second and pulled Smith away from the driver's seat. But before he could step on the accelerator pedal, the zombies have already approached their car, now trying to break through the glass. To make matters worst, their car had refused to start again. It was totally pointless shooting at them now. Apart from Smith who kept finding a place to clung unto, Justin stared at Kim through the mirror and Kim stared back, preparing both themselves to get bitten by the zombies. It was also pointless trying to escape. They were hundreds of them surrounding their car.

One got hold of Smith's hand and he screamed trying hard to pull away his arms from the zombies tight grip.

A loud rap music coming from a place quite far away caused them all to whip their heads to that direction. In no time, the zombies ran to the place where the loud music came from. Their shoulders sagged in relief and they heaved a long sigh as their rough thumping hearts gradually settled down.

The moment Smith got down from the car, he puked. His body have been acting weird since he started driving the car. It was due to fear that made him hit the metal thing without him seeing it lying on the road side. It had only come to his realization that he had hit a metal, when it made a sharp sound. His tummy and his body began to whirl up more in fear as the zombies started chasing them. Earlier, he thought he would have turned to those creatures by now. Thankfully, the loud music distracted them. He didn't want to be a zombie. There was just no way. Out of fear and relief mixing in his body, he puked out.

Justin and Kim sat on the ground trying to catch their breaths and relax their wary body. They saw three people coming their way and they immediately stood up, preparing their guns at them.

"We're not here to start a fight neither are we zombies." One of them spoke with their hands high above their heads. Their clothes were ragged and their skin was dull and dirty as if they've not taken their bath for ages.

"Who are you?" Justin asked.

They halted few steps away from them. The one in the middle spoke again. "I'm Eli, he's Nathaniel," pointing at the one on the right side, "and he's Alain," referring to the one at the left. "We're the only survivors from the zombies apocalypse and we've been here ever since then for two years now. We couldn't get out and we've been finding a way out all this time. Please.... you guys are our last hope."

They slowly lowered their guns. "Are you sure you're the only survivors here?" Justin asked.

"For the past two years we've been in a hideout, we've seen no other human. Just the three of us and Jennine."

"Jennine?" Justin asked. "Who's Jennine?"

"She's a little child that around four years old."

"Where is she?"

"At the hideout. We can take you there ourselves."

Kim and Justin glared at each other before throwing their gazes back to them.

"Is she your child?" Kim asked.

"No. She's no one's child here. We just found her close to a woman that was infected and gradually turning into a zombie.. I think that was her mother."

Kim and Justin threw a glance at each other again before staring back at the three ragged men.

"If there's a child with them, then I think we should help them." He was speaking to Kim but his gaze never leaving the three men. Kim nodded in agreement.

"And who are they?" Binna asked as they appraoched them.

Binna's car stopped few meters away from them because of the fuel tank that had run completely empty. If it wasn't because of the loud music that distracted the zombies, they were sure by now they would have turned into zombies.

"They're people who survived the zombies apocalypse." Justin explained.

"Woah! So you guys have been here for two good years?" She asked and they nodded.

"Not just them. A child too."

"A child.....?" Her brows furrowed and her eyes almost bulged out from her eye sockets.

"Yes. A four year old child."

"Four....?" She whipped her head to them. "Where's the kid?"

"At our hideout." Eli spoke.

She turned to Justin. "So what now? What do we do about them?"
