Chapter 10

A Fricken Radio

Ace

Echo had wanted to look for a weapon in the butcher so Scarlette went with her, leaving Alice and I to look for a radio. As we walked into the store, there was mostly only static to be heard or seen. Out on the streets there were many undead but here there were many as well. We stepped carefully over the broken glass and electronics, slowly approaching the section with all the radios.
"Ah!"shrieked Alice quietly as she just missed bumping straight into a Walker.
As we slowly approached the shelf I noticed I was partially face to face with an infected. I backed away in shock, straight into Alice and after that, it was like dominoes. Alice stumbled straight back into a shelf, causing that shelf to fall into the next one and so on. The loud sounds were unbearably loud.
"Shit."I murmured as I heard the groans of the infected, as they broke out of their dormant state.
I moved quickly striking the zombie right before me in the face with my blades.
"C'mon Alice! Move your ass!"I rushed as I grabbed hold of her wrist quickly stepping forward, grabbing hold of the First radio in reach.
But by the time We had turned back to run, we were surrounded. Alice being the more logical one here, immediately made a move, pushing a set of shelves down to clear a pathway.
"Quick run!"she shouted at me as she ran on top of the selves she had pushed down, crushing the infected underneath.
I followed her quickly swinging my hedge cutters wildly at either side. Alice's Nail guns worked perfectly. We continued to swing and shoot our way through the pack until we came to the street again. But when we did I realized that the bus was no longer there. Only then did I notice the streets were swarming with the infected. Had we actually caught that much attention? I heard the loud sound of the bus turning the corner, driving straight into a pack of infected on the road. But straight past us.
"What're they doing?"Alice asked as she stared worryingly as the bus turned a corner out of sight.
"I dunno, maybe there were too many zombies swarming over the bus, so they had to move... But where's Scarlette and Echo."I asked as I spun around trapping an infected's head in between the two blades.
"Over here morons."shouted Scarlette over from a mob of zombies swarming over them.
We quickly hurried over to them helping out. Scarlette was amazingly skilled with her sword and Echo now held a huge meat cleaver.
"A meat cleaver? How fitting."I winked (horribly), followed by a few fake coughs.
Echo Returned a glare as Scarlette gave me a small smile. Alice raised an eyebrow at us, probably wondering what the hell we were laughing about. Soon after, I noticed Blake and Claude running straight to us, fighting their way through the mobs. When they reached us, they quickly called for us to follow them, which we did. I noticed Alice was limping slightly, I wasn't particularly sure on what was wrong but I quickly ran back, placing her arm around and along my shoulders giving her support as we ran. I turned to the left noticing Blake was also badly injured, Echo and Scarlette carrying him. Shit this was bad. I quickly ran back to help them out, realizing what I had to be done, I acted quickly.
"Blake climb onto my fricking back."I demanded as I stood before him, my back to him.
"Hell no, I don't trust you."he answered sharply as Echo quickly threw him onto my back, as I hooked my arms around his legs making sure he was stable.
Echo and Scarlette helped out Alice as we ran, eventually I got tired and passed him over to Echo. Claude kept on running ahead of us, leading the way.
"Crap!"swore Echo as she stumbled falling straight over.
"Scarlette, go on with Alice and keep on following Claude! We'll catch up!"I reassured Scarlette as she nodded and supported Alice as they ran after Claude.
I quickly turned around, helping Echo and Blake up. But as soon as Echo stood up, unstable, Blake was suddenly grabbed from behind. His eyes widened in shock as a rotten hand gripped onto his shoulder dragging him back into the pack.
"Shit!"Echo and I swore together as we grabbed hold of each of his arms trying to pull him back.
I quickly ran forward cutting the hands and arms away from him, the metallic smell filling the air. As soon as he was free Echo quickly grabbed hold of him and started to run. We weren't going to make it, someone needed to stay back and hold them off. I quickly made this my responsibility, staying back fighting with all my strength.
"Ace! What the hell are you doing? C'mon let's go!"Echo shouted back at me as I ignored her words.
"You guys go on ahead!"I shouted back eventually.
"No! Ace here take Blake I'll stay back!"Echo immediately volunteered.
"Guys! I'm injured I'll stay back."Blake immediately butted in.
But before we could say anything else we all felt someone hit us across the back of our heads.
"YOU DUMB ASSES! If you guys are all willing and ready to die then move your asses and just run!"shouted Ender.
We all turned around in shock to see the whole crew there.
"C'mon we'll get through this together!"shouted Faye as she ran over next to me taking down an infected right before me.
