Survivors (One Direction/Zombie)

Chapter 41

Zayn

The elevator shot up with what felt like the force of a rocket. Viv told me to stay low to the ground and get ready to jump, but I was still blankly looking at the metallic doors.

My best friend in this hell hole, my best friend in the fucking world was gone. She was innocent, a bit insane yes, but she was pure and protective and loving. She didn't deserve this fate, she didn't deserve anything she went through.

"Zayn?" Viv shouted over the loud screech of metal on metal. She waddled over to me, squatting low to the ground as we continued to shoot upwards. Viv pulled me down and faced me, wiping my cheeks with her sleeves furiously.

Was I crying?

"We have to jump okay?" She croaked, her own tears threatening to spill out of her eyes. She knew Carrie from the beginning, Carrie was the reason Viv got out of the Grayie filled supermarket and survived all those months ago. And here she saved us once again, but at a price.

Viv waddled over to the metal doors and pressed the open button. Now that there was electricity pumping through the wiring, everything worked. In motion, the elevator wouldn't open, but since this was a jump start the metal death trap didn't technically know it was moving.

The doors opened with ease, and Viv gripped the hand railing, her other hand reaching for my own.

"The floor is coming up, we only have about 15 seconds before the power runs out and the elevator crashes again." Viv was breathing hard, sweat dripped from her forehead as she stared the floors go by.

The basement passed us, then the storage floor area. Our stop was coming.

"Jump!" She shouted, and we flew out. First her, rolling onto the ground with a a tight grip still latched on my wrist. Then I tumbled out, just barely getting my feet through.

We were on the cheap, blood splattered carpet, breathing heavily as we heard the elevator slow down then pass by us again.

A few silent seconds as Viv and I watched each other, the crash echoed throughout the elevator shaft and I could feel my blood freeze over.

There was no way of going back.

"Come on, we don't have much time and Niall is probably still with-" Viv paused, brushing herself up as she rose and wiping the tears and sweat from her face. Her expression blanked, before turning to me with wide eyes.

"Hagid made a cure." She gasped softly, before digging her nails into my shoulders and pulling her close to me.

"Where are the vials?"

"Outside with the younger girl. Lucille, I think." I gasped in realization as the idea came to me as well. "She told me Lauren survived the infection. But once someone turns they don't survive. Which means we have to get to Winnie-"

"Right fucking now!" She roared, speeding off without warning. She couldn't get very far with her limp however, and I caught up easily.

"On my back." I ordered, jogging ahead of her. Viv groaned in embarrassment, but hopped on anyways, loosely wrapping her arms around my neck as I quickened my pace.

We quickly reached the outer entrance, thousands of Grayies surrounding us. Scar- Sawyer? was fighting off as much as she could we Louis and Harry by her side.

Lauren sat on the concrete by Josh, who was fighting as well with Liam, Lauren was now fully conscious but still dazed. Weirdly enough, none of the Grayies seemed to be targeting them. Lucille stood off at the side, also not being attacked. She held the tray of vials with wide eyes as she watched the others fight off the vicious monsters.

"Sawyer I need you with me, and Lucille is it? I need a vial." Viv shouted from my back determined to make it back to Winnie. Now with the elevator destroyed, we would need to get to her by foot.

Liam turned towards us and narrowed his eyes slightly at Viv and I, but then seeing the tear stains on my face and a lack of Carrie his face softened.

"Take a needle too, you'll need it." She nodded, juggling the tray while handing over the equipment. She then turned to everyone else. "You guys should take a shot too. It'll help with the Fleshies."

"What do you mean?" Louis raised an eyebrow, before plunging a kitchen knife inside a Grayie skull.

"Well, watch." She carefully handed the tray to Lauren, before walking into the crowd of- what was it she said? Fleshies?

We all started to protest before we watched in awe as she walked in without a problem. The Grayies around her moved away as if they were avoiding her, and she did a cheeky little twirl before walking back to us.

We all stared for a moment, before Harry piped up with a grin stretched across his face.

"Gimme some of that!"
