Left 4 Dead Detention

Rooftop Stroll

The man broke through the door. The door flew off it's hinges and landed next to Jasmine. The loud sound caused her to jump. The hamper hid her flinch. The man looked wildly for her, sneering and snorting like a bull. The noise terrified Jasmine.

" What are we going to do," Stewart exclaimed crying through tears.

" We have to get back inside," Marty said," is there any other way we can use to get inside?"

" We can go through the front door," Stewart answered.

" Even if we got off the roof we might be seen by infected," Marty answered back.

" We can go through the window of the guest bedroom. We'll need to climb across a tree but it should be close enough," Stewart said.

" That's the way we'll go. Lead the way," Marty said.

The walk across the roof was slightly difficult at first but the two soon adjusted to the akward walking position. They walked to the edge of the roof. From where they were perched, they could see all around the suburb. Stewart looked away from the chaos as Marty watched the horror unfold just a story below.

" Can we help anyone," Marty asked.

" No," Stewart responded," we need to get Jasmine and get the hell out of here."

Marty looked down by his foot. A burly tree limb was growing up and on the roof. The limbs of the tree were thick, they could easily support 2 people.

" See that tree branch over there," Stewart said as he pointed to a tree limb that was next to the window, " I'm going to hang from my legs and open the window. When it's open I want you to pull me up."

Stewart looked at the frying pan and tossed it off the roof.

" It was a stupid weapon anyway," Stewart said.

Stewart walked over to the edge of the roof and sat on the branch. He then butt-shimmied down the limb. He then climbed sideways to get to the branch in front of the window and sat down on it.

" Alright, your turn now," Stewart told Marty.

Marty followed Stewart's actions and sat next to him.

" Now I'm going to hang upside down and open the window. I want you to hold my legs down so I don't fall," Stewart told Marty.

Stewart then gave Marty the baseball bat to hold. Marty jabbed the ninja sword into the tree so he didn't need to hold it. Stewart then slowly flipped upside down, hanging by the tree with his legs. He reached for the window and pulled up, only to find that it's was locked.

" What the fuck," Stewart said with anger.

" What is it," Marty asked.

" The window's locked. Give me the baseball bat and I'll smash it open."

Marty handed the bat to Stewart. Stewart gripped the bat in his hands. He rose the bat and swung, hitting the top right corner. The glass shattered and sent a spider web of cracks through the window. He hit the window again, right in the middle, clearing the majority of the glass. He then hit any sharp part so they could safely enter. Stewart saw something move in the door way. As he focused on it, he heard sneering.

" It's him," Stewart screamed, " pull me up!"

Stewart held his hand up and Marty grabbed it. Just as Marty grabbed Stewart's hand, the man charged. Marty pulled up Stewart just before the man hit the window, sending shards of glass where Stewart once hung. The wall bulged a bit but held. The man then disappeared out of view.

" Where did he go," Stewart asked.

After a few seconds the man appeared around the corner of the house. Stewart and Marty then climbed farther up the tree to escape reach of the man.

" He just won't give up! How are we going to escape now," Marty said.

" I've got an idea," Stewart said as he climbed the tree, " you need to stay here and be a distraction so he doesn't see me."

" Fine, but you better come back for me."

" I will."

Stewart then started to climb up the tree and onto the roof. He slowly walked over to the skylight. He then lowered himself into the bathroom again. When he reached the floor, he went over to the hamper and opened the top. Jasmine was still inside.

" Oh my god. Stewart," she said as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

Stewart gave her a quick hug.

" Jasmine, we need to get to the car."

" What about Marty? Where is he?"

" Don't worry he's safe. I've got a plan."

Jasmine and Stewart raced out of the house and into the car. Stewart turned the key and the car roared to life, alerting some infected down the street. Stewart saw the man 30ft away from him. He accelerated towards the grotesque human . Before the man could respond, Stewart hit him with the car. The man dented the hood of the car. The vehicle kept on moving as the man was sucked under like dirt in a vacuum. Stewart stopped on the man's body and opened the sunroof.

" Go through the sunroof," Jasmine yelled.

Stewart drove the car and parked it under the tree. Marty jumped from the tree and onto the top of the car. He then fit through the sunroof window. With infected nearing, Stewart stepped on the gas and drove away.
