~Runaway~ {The Suicide Squad x Reader} A Marvel/DC Fanfiction

Zombies

Hey, how goes it? So, real quick before we jump into today's 'episode' I want to address a few things before we get into the story so, recently saw the preview episode of Marvel's What If? and, thought I would make this chapter inspired by the What If zombies episode and fair mature content warning, there will be gore and mentions of zombies, so, I advise you to click off this chapter and watch Happy Tree Friends or something but if you like a little horror with the undead thrown in, then sit back grab some root beer and let's get into it. Enjoy my lovelies!

I walked out of my new school with a grin on my face everybody in Corto Maltese liked my new look despite not understanding English at first which I was happy to teach them. The moment I walked out of school, something felt....off about Corto Maltese as if I had just walked into a different dimension everything was in ruins cars were scattered everywhere, and rusting houses were boarded up the works. It was completely silent except for the occasional bird caw. What the hell happened here?  I thought to myself the wind blew in my ears as I saw various objects scattered about toys, food, clothing, etc I could hear cloth blowing in the wind. I jumped slightly when I heard a slight shuffle of moving feet and a gurgling sound I turned my head in that direction but whatever it was that made that sound had run off "Uh, Nanaue guys? Hey, w-where is everybody? Ok guys haha  I get it it's a- it's a prank, right? just trying to scare me hehe you've succeeded" I yelled out in that direction but the word succeeded echoed off in the distance giving me a clue that not a single person was presumed alive. I slowly walked toward whatever made that noise I immediately thought it was someone alive I found the thing behind a car next to a building kneeling over something a horrible smell found its way to my nostrils it smelled of rotting flesh I heard fly's buzzing he had black hair that was cut really short with dark blue and gold armor "Uh, sir? I-I want to know how I can get back home hehe I must have lost my way and-" I stopped midsentence when I realized that this man had dark skin but he was no ordinary human, he was Bloodsport and what he was eating wasn't food it was a human corpse and when he turned around to face me, he wasn't normal the entire skin on his jaw was completely picked clean except for black skin around it where it had apparently fallen off all that was left was a bloody jaw bone with missing teeth he had bags under his eyes they seemed to have sunken in as if he had aged with milky white cloud eyes he was chewing on the flesh from the man he had eaten I shook my head and backed away "Bloodsport? No no" I saw to my right  Harley Quinn her entire mouth besides her nose were rotten away with nothing but black flesh around it her entire leg was completely covered in black flesh her left shoulder was rotten away showing bone and black flesh she still retained her lipstick various bites and scratches were found within her body she too had cloudy eyes "Harley?" I muttered beside Bloodsport was Nanaue flesh around the top of his head was black and rotten showing his eye sockets and part of his bones completely missing his gills were exposed and his bust was black and rotten his eyes were cloudy as well Polka Dot Man and Ratcatcher 2 were completely rotten away Sebastian's entire head was rotten to the bone his spinal cord was visible "No" I muttered horrified at what was once my friends tears ran down my face as I couldn't stop looking at these innocent people my own flesh and blood my family zombies the undead, whatever a virus had ravaged their bodies turning them into these pale, sickly abominations I even saw a man with glasses, rotting flesh, and an upturned hairstyle not far from where I was it was James Gunn the director of The Suicide Squad. I slapped myself over and over again trying to wake up as if this was a dream but this was all fucking real I continued backing away James Gunn pointed at me smiling and drooling as I backed into Nanaue how the hell did he get behind me so fast?

He picked me up and forced me to stare at his rotten face his once sweet face his kind eyes now disfigured by what the virus had done to him. He opened his mouth which was full of rotten or missing teeth as he bit down hard on my left shoulder frantically shaking his head from side to side ripping the flesh free and chewing it then swallowing it I screamed in pain as he dropped me I clutched what was left of my shoulder crying looking at Nanaue a roar was heard as they all ran to me with surprising speed holding me down or rather, tying me down onto a crushed car. I couldn't stop crying from pain and shock each of the zombified squad took turns biting me until I was ravaged from flesh and bone but Nanaue's saliva mixed with my Shark DNA worked its magic my body pulsated and seared with pain as a fin grew from my back my skin went pale as flesh began turning black clothing ripping becoming much larger than Nanaue but the virus had disfigured my shark form and what was left of my pants flesh fell off from various parts of my body my eyes clouded over but I was in control my brain wasn't rotten and taken over by the virus.

Days and months went by as I was now a shark zombie hybrid until the entire world seemed to warp and flash and before I knew it, I was back in my own bed still in my shark form I looked at my skin and body everything was normal thank God. The Squad was back to normal everything was fine they had no memory of what happened to them I hugged Nanaue and we all had a group hug everything was ok.
