Is It The Last Of Us

Chapter Thirty

With our guns up, we walked down a short hallway, then found ourselves in a few offices. 

I took lead as Kell shot a scurrying Stalker. 

I switched back and shot three times when a Stalker charged me. 

Jessie bolted and shut a door. The thudding from a Stalker from the other side made a Stalker rip itself from the wall and almost bite into him. 

I got pushed down by Kell before he decapitated a Stalker. 

I got on my feet as Jessie darted over to me, grabbing his shotgun.

The room fell silent after Jessie's shotgun shell splattered its brains. 

" You promised me no hero shit Jessie." 

" I'm livn' arn't I?" 

" Tell me what your fucking doing nesx time man." 

" You guys ready to clear the rest of them out?" Kell asked. 

" I'll crack the door." Jessie said. 

He cracked the door and the Stalker tried to get out but Kell shot it in the head.

He whistled and the patter of feet started. 

Jessie opened the door bigger and I quickly looked into the empty room, not seeing anything. 

I slowly looked up and saw a Stalker that was coverd in grey fungus. 

Jessie shut the door as it pounced. 

It's anamalistic shreaking unnerved me as it hit itself aginst the metal door. 

I lit another molatove and handed Kell my shotgun. 

" Only crack the door two feet Jessie." I said, lighting the molovove. 

Jessie cracked the door and I tossed the molotove in, Kell unloading shell after shell into the Stalker. 

It screamed and screamed, not shutting up intil five minutes later. 

" Is it dead?" Jessie asked. 

Kell pocked it with a metal pipe. " I think so." 

" Hear anymore El?" 

" No." 

Jessie got up as I loaded my shotgun, Kell taking his flashlight and looing around. " There's that window." 

Jessie followed Kell as I cocked my shotgun, sticking to Jessie's back like glue. 

Kell peeked the window. " Nothing. 

" How the hell did they get over here?" Jessie asked. 

" They had to climb up here." 

" Jesus." 

" Is there anythin' we cam block it with?" 

" I'll get something." I said, Jessie and Kell slowly moved back into the room we were in. 

I went back to get some boards, but was met by a Bloater that had smashed through concret, hopding one of the teen girls by her throat. 

I but some buck shot into it's arm, making it drop the girl. 

She remained in shock at it's feel. 

Someone behind the bloater started to spray it down with fire, giving me enough time to get her out of the way before unloading my shotgun on it. 

" Ellie?" I heard Jessie ask. 

" I'm fine." I said back." 

" Fucking things!" A teen girl yelled, kicking the Bloaters corpse.
