Deadzone: Project E.V.E

Prologue Part 2

The next day at the gas station somewhere in a highway going to Chicago

"*sigh* "3 more miles............" I was filling up the tank of the SUV which was beat up to hell, it was full of bangs and dings, joined up with blood and guts coming from the zombies i ran over earlier, the tank got empty so i got to go fill up, after it finished i pulled out the fuel gun and placed it back to the pump i then locked up the tank and proceeded to get inside, but i heard a big truck sorta soundcoming from the highway, little bit panicked i got hold of my backpack and proceeded to hide in the garage, i hid behind two oil barrels, which i will regret hiding when i saw the truck i heard earlier, the truck was full of armor and it has a plow infront the plow was filled with sharped metal and spikes which is rusted by the blood and guts made by the zeds, i know i got to do something to get out, alive. i looked around and saw a glass bottle, a jerry can and some rags that is used for checking the oil in the engines, building a molotov isnt that hard i just need these three things to make one, its for a distraction, i filled up the bottle with gasoline and stuffed some rag to make up the fuse, i pulled out a lighter and lighted the rag, i looked up to the guys and i saw two guys checking out the SUV i was using

"This one's empty! The engine is running though"

"Look around! the user might be in here"

i then knew that this was the chance to go and i proceeded to throw the molotov in front of the their truck, it was quite a big throw but i made it there, all of them distracted and some men were burned i ran and got inside the SUV and floored it

"There!"

"OPEN FIRE!"

after the i got out i heard gunfire and bullet hitting the glass shattering it, i immediately ducked down and drove as fast as i can, and they arestill gunning me down, but then i lost them, i sighed in relief, but it was not over yet. They chased me down and the firing continues i knew i need to fight back, i dont have a gun, but only a Bow, which will be a bit useless at this point but i have to try

i got hold of the bow and a arrow and nocked one, aimed carefully and fired, making one in the back of the truck fall down and left for dead, i tried another one but i was too confident i forgot to steer the car making me crash through the side of the truck, the driver saw me and pointed a pistol, i let go of my bow and arrow making it land in the passenger seat after that i brushed off the driver's hand with the gun and punched him i then put his arm on lock and disarmed him, taking hold of the weapon, he's not dead neither am i but the chased is still on, i just have to survive, i held the steering wheel with one hand and the gun in the other, then i fired, despite firing one for the first time i shot one but it was non lethal, i fired more and they returned some making it some action movie gun fight sequence, i then saw something, their gas tank was out in the open i aimed for it to shoot but was interrupted when the truck crashed again into my side, making the SUV tilt a bit, panicking i held the steering wheel to control the car, making it flat on the road again, i held again the gun and aimed once more but then i got interrupted and got shot in the shoulder, i got shocked in pain as it burns my flesh making my eyes water and close to the pain of the bullet hitting my shoulder, i then aimed again with one hand and immediately shot, it was hit and after a couple of seconds the truck exploded into a big fireball

"Yeah, Take that you sons of bitches! WOO! oh ow...." i rode more until in the last mile.....The SUV stopped working,
i standed in front to see the damage, and almost could'nt believe i survived, i grabbed my stuff and walked to the forest, which was a very big forest filled with trees that are atleast five to ten stories high, i walked to the direction of the highway, i walk and walkedun till got tired of walking and decided to rest, i gathered some rocks, logs, and twigs and sticks to make fire, i also caught some squirrels to eat, i also wrapped some bandages to my bullet wound which hurt really bad....and some time passed and at that time i read my book about apocalypses, but i heard a rustle in the bushes, making me grab the gun and point it at the rustling bush, i aimed and waited i was anxious and kinda nervous to find out if it was an animal, a human, or one of "them" the wait felt like forever but later a girl showed up and stumbled,the girl had brown eyes and black hair, her clothes was rugged and looked old after that i noticed that rustling didnt stop then i saw a zombie, being in my guard i aimed at the head of the zombie

"Get down!" the girl immediately ducks and i fired hitting the zed in the head making it fall down and die on its tracks.

"T-t-thank you, Thank god...." The girl is crying and was panting, it looks like she is been running for a few minutes or few hours by the looks of it

"Sit here take a rest, you looked like you ran a marathon"

"Thank you" she got up but her legs was twitching due to the fatigue she had while running after she sat i grabbed a bottle of water and placed it near her

"Here have some water" she takes it and drinks like she didnt drank a single drop, after she was done with the bottle she exhaled

"So what's your name?" I asked her while reading again my book

"Maya, Maya Lambert"

"I'm Logan Wake, Nice to meet you Maya, so what brings you here?"

"I-i dont know.....i just ran and ran,scared not to be eaten by that nasty zombies"

"You ran from where?"

"My house.....a guy got in using the window, i said stop and he just walked towards me with a scary face, so i grabbed a pan smacked it in his face and ran as fast as i could, now im here....stuck with you"

"Uhuh.....Were kinda on the same page here"

"So, whats your's?"

"My what?"

"Your story of how you got here"

"Oh that....hehe, are you ready for it though? It will be long and kinda boring if you ask me"

"haha i know it would be okay, i like long stories"

"O-okay then, well first it started when-"

I told the whole story, from how i encountered the first, the gas station, the gunfight and the bullet wound, and how i got to the forest, long story short i was onmy journey to chicago, but that will have to wait, for the rest will continue tommorow.....

To be continued.......
