Left 4 Dead Detention

Unexpected Visitor

The frantic noise woke them.

" Who is that," Jasmine asked.

" I don't know but they're still alive," Stewart said as he jumped off the couch and to the door.

" Wait, what if they're infected," Jasmine asked.

" Please let me in," the voice cried again.

" We'll deal with that later," Stewart said as he looked through the peep hole. He saw what looked like a man in some sort of suit. Stewart stopped looking through the peep hole, unlocked the deadbolt, and opened the door. A crying, frantic man entered the house and slammed the door behind him. As Stewart got a better look at him he noticed that he was a African American and was actually wearing what looked like a magicians costume.

" Thank you, thank you, thank you," the man said over and over again.

" Who are you and why were you banging on the door," Stewart asked.

The man took a second to catch his breath.

" My name is Marty Carmine," Marty said as he took another deep breath, " and I was doing magic tricks at a kid's party when I heard a scream. I went to check it out and, Mrs. Blake was-"

" Wait Mrs. Blake, as in Mr. and Mrs. Blake," Jasmine asked.

Tears started to stream down his face again.

" Yes," Marty's voice choked.

" What happened to them, is Timmy okay," asked Jasmine.

Marty sat down, crossed his legs and looked down at the floor.

" They're dead. Mrs. Blake, ate Mr. Blake."

" Oh no," Jasmine said as she buried her head into Stewart's chest and started to cry.

" And that's not even the worst part," Marty said as he looked up at the two.

" Timmy turned into, something. He was tiny but his arms hung to the floor and he jumped on my head. I told him to stop and get off but he just kept laughing and choking me. And when he was on me he was like, steering me and controlling where I moved. I didn't know what was happening. We moved towards the stairs and then we fell down the stairs and,"

" And what," Jasmine asked.

" I fell on top of him and crushed him."

" What are we dealing with," asked Stewart.

Outside someone screamed causing them to jump. The three of them went to the closest window and looked outside. The suburb was under attack.

" We need to arm ourselves," Stewart said as he went into the closet and emerged with a baseball bat. He gave it to Marty.

" Marty, go down that hall and into the bedroom and get the - sword off the wall. Jasmine, go into the bathroom and get any kind of medicine you can find. Pain pills, cough syrup, band-aids anything."

The three didn't hesitate, Marty went to the bedroom and found the - sword on the wall. He also found 3 back packs. Jasmine raided the bathroom. She found 2 bottles of pain pills, 1 large bottle of unused hydrogen peroxide, a box of multi-size band-aids, half a box of allergy medicine, a bottle of caffeine pills, gauze, and some cotton swabs.

Stewart went into the kitchen and pulled out a frying pan.

" Not the best weapon but it'll do."

" Hey guys I found some backpacks. I'll just bring them to the front door," Marty said.

Jasmine organized and divided the medical supplies on the coffee table in the living room.

" Uh, I never actually got you guys' names," Marty said.

" Mine's Jasmine."

" I'm Stewart. Now that we're acquainted, give Jasmine the ninja sword," Stewart told Marty.

Marty gave Jasmine the sword.

" Wait, what's that noise," Stewart asked. The three stopped what they were doing and listened. Besides screams, there was a out of place noise. It sounded like sneering. Stewart looked through the peep hole only to see a giant, discolored arm rushing towards the door, accompanied by a loud bellow. Stewart jumped away from the door and hit the floor. Just as he jumped away a large man hit the door, ripping it off it's hinges. The man was average size except his left arm was huge. His right arm just flapped when he moved. He was wearing a brown t-shirt with the left arm hole ripped to make room for his massive arm. He wore blue jeans, ripped because of his massive legs. He wore no shoes for his feet were too big to fit. His whole body was a grey or a dark brown. His boney face was bloody and crushed. After hitting the door, the man's speed caused him to continue running and he crashed into the computer desk. The three screamed.

" Go to the bathroom," Stewart screamed.

The three ran to the bathroom. When they were halfway to the bathroom, the man regained his balance and sprinted after them. The three got into the bathroom and collectively locked the door. The man was too late and started to pound on the door.

" What was that thing," Marty asked.

" How the hell am I supposed to know," Stewart said.

" Jasmine why don't you just stab it through the door," Marty asked her.

" We don't know how tough it is, the sword could have no effect on it," Jasmine told Marty.

" The skylight," Stewart exclaimed, " we can escape through the skylight.

Stewart went to the edge of the bath tub and stepped up. He then used his foot to kick away the shampoos and conditioners that were on the wall jut and stepped up on that. He reached for the skylight, unlocked it's hinges, and lifted the window up and threw it to the side. He then lifted himself up and out of the window.

" Go," Jasmine said.

" Why me? Why not you," Marty asked.

" So you guys can lift me out; I'm too short to reach."

Marty stepped up on the tub, then the jut, then lifted himself out. Stewart put his left arm and Marty put his right arm through the window.

" Hurry," Stewart gasped," it's breaking through the door!"

The man had badly broken the door. Large cracks and a head size hole were present. Jasmine stepped up on the tub. As she stepped onto the jut, the water from the shower caused her to slip. She fell and landed on her butt.

" NO," screamed Stewart.

" Jasmine there's no more time. Throw up the ninja sword then get a towel and cover the door, then hide in the laundry basket and hold the lid down," Marty told Jasmine.

Jasmine followed his command and threw up the ninja sword. Marty caught it. Jasmine then took a towel and threw it on the door, covering the holes. She then opened the hamper and got in and held down the lid.
